Not by Banksy. News.com.au ran a story about Banksy today. News.com.au didn't even have the decency to check all the artwork was actually by Banksy, let alone credit the photos to their respective photographers.
If this is your photo, you should write to News.com.au and complain.
Hi Guys please share comment and let me know what you think. These 3 images are 1 My original copyrighted image. The second is a NEXT T Shirt. And the last is my image layered over the T shirt with a 50% opacity so you can see the shirt through my image. Next have NOT even had the decency to ask to use the shot or offered anything for the shot they have just taken the image from online and used it. The shirt is so popular if you look on the website it has already sold out in many sizes
A single Green sandpiper remained on Restharrow Scrape this morning but it did have the decency to come within range.
As I mentioned on the previously submitted Snipe shots, there is a distinct lack of feather detail, I need to find similar shots from my old camera to make a true comparison, but my feeling - and that of many reviews, the SX60 doesn't give the quality of image that its predecessor did.
These images are cropped, but not cropped to enlarge, just to remove large areas of background. They are 1/4 of the original image, still giving a 2300x1712 image which is then shrunk to ~1800x1333 for Flickr.

Countess Constance Markievicz was a trailblazing Irish revolutionary, politician, and social activist who defied conventions and fought tirelessly for Irish independence, women’s rights, and social justice. She was a key figure in the 1916 Easter Rising, the first woman elected to the British House of Commons, and the first female cabinet minister in Ireland. phm.org.uk/blogposts/constance-markievicz/
Constance Markievicz (1868–1927) was an Irish politician, revolutionary, nationalist, suffragist, socialist, and the first woman elected to the Westminster Parliament. She was elected Minister for Labour in the First Dáil, becoming the second female cabinet minister in Europe. She served as a Teachta Dála for the Dublin South constituency from 1921 to 1922 and 1923 to 1927. She was a Member of Parliament (MP) for Dublin St Patrick's from 1918 to 1922.
Markievicz played a dramatic role in the women's suffrage campaigners' tactic of opposing Winston Churchill's election to Parliament during the Manchester North West by-election, flamboyantly appearing in the constituency driving an old-fashioned carriage drawn by four white horses to promote the suffragist cause. A male heckler asked her if she could cook a dinner, to which she responded, "Yes. Can you drive a coach and four?" Her sister Eva had moved to Manchester to live with fellow suffragist Esther Roper and they both campaigned against the anti-suffragist Churchill with her. Churchill lost the election to Conservative candidate William Joynson-Hicks, in part as a result of the suffragists' dedicated opposition. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constance_Markievicz

I realise while uploading this that I've taken a very similar shot before, so apologies for that.
This is one of the soap bottles in work which has once again turned into a layered cocktail as they've been topped up from a five litre bottle of a different colour.
This one at least has the decency to be blue and white in honour of a great result for the Blues tonight.

How can keeping food and medicine from the people of Gaza protect the people of Israel? How can the impoverishment and suffering of Gaza’s children – more than 50 per cent of the population – benefit anyone? International law as well as human decency demands their protection. If Gaza falls, the West Bank will be next. - Sara Roy
The cover illustration takes a new meaning today with Osama Bin Laden's finishing off news!
Tariq Ali's comprehensive and eye-opening account of fundamentalisms of american, afghan, Arab and pakistani varieties enmeshed with religions of people of the Book(s)!
Oh and he calls American Imperialism the mother of all fundamentalisms! As a people/region who has experienced the best and worst of both British and American Imperialisms, it indeed is true. After all, British Empire had the decency to eyewash its loot and pillaging with all the architecture, systems and infrastructure development. American Imperialism alas just has wars, bomb blasts, ruins and F16s to show for.

Recently refurbished at great cost, a lovely park. Very quickly the turf was torn up, rubber protective matting has been removed, litter everywhere - beer cans, cigarette packets, condoms, sweet packets.
It's common decency to look after property, to think of others. Why is this lacking?

Pissigt väder ju. Sitter i Södertälje hamn, detta skithål, och inväntar avgång. På bänken bredvid mig sitter världens äckligaste småstadssvin, två killar och en tjej. Finniga, lurkiga, med för mkt texturising wax från Garnier i håret. Ni vet, kidsen som rör sig i stadens yttersta utkanter (asså typ Järna och Gnesta) har ej ännu fått informationen om att spikes är så jävla '98. Vill döda. 30-something kvinnor med kopparfärgade highlights (måtte det ej vara hårmascara) i sitt råttfärgade hår lommar förbi, kånkandes på shoppingpåsar från Joy och Flash. Ja, ni hajar. Ett ungt par begår kardinalsynden; de tunghånglar i mitt öra, slask, slafs, smack. De har inte ens the decency att vara snygga. Jag har nu uppgivit tre anledningar till att skaffa körkort, köpa en bil och bara sluta åka kollektivt. Det är antagligen det jag skulle njuta allra mest av om jag tog bilen överallt; att bli fredad av mänskligheten. Detta virus. Men asså det är så himla dyrt och miljöovänligt att köra bil så jag ska nog lägga mina slantar på att gå i terapi istället. Jag måste lära mig att se det vackra i människor! Alla människor.
Cars, fucking cars everywhere!! Don't you sods have enough room in Helsinki already, have some decency ffs!
The Postcard
A Comic Series postcard that was published by Bamforth & Co. Ltd. of Holmfirth, Yorkshire. The card was printed in England.
The card was posted in Shanklin, Isle-of-Wight using a 2d. stamp on Wednesday the 9th. June 1954.
The recipient's name and address and the message have faded to the point that they are illegible.
McCarthyism
So what else happened on the day that the card was posted?
Well, on the 9th. June 1954, Joseph Welch, special counsel for the United States Army, lashed out at Senator Joseph McCarthy, during hearings on whether Communism had infiltrated the Army. He asked:
"Have you no sense of decency?"
George Perez
The day also marked the birth in The Bronx, New York of the
American comic book artist George Perez.
George worked primarily as a penciller. He came to prominence in the 1970's penciling Fantastic Four and The Avengers for Marvel Comics. In the 1980's he penciled The New Teen Titans, which became one of DC Comics' top-selling series.
George penciled DC's landmark series Crisis on Infinite Earths, followed by relaunching Wonder Woman as both writer and penciller for the rebooted series.
In the meantime, he worked on other comics published by Marvel, DC, and other companies into the 2010s. He was known for his detailed and realistic rendering, and his facility with complex crowd scenes.
George died in Sanford, Florida at the age of 67 on the 6th. May 2022.
'Cara Mia'
Also on the 9th. June 1954, the Number One chart hit record in the UK was Cara Mia by David Whitfield and the Mantovani Orchestra.
David Whitfield (2nd. February 1925 – 15th. January 1980) was a popular British male tenor vocalist from Hull. He became the first British artist to have a UK No. 1 single in the UK and in the United States with Cara Mia.
David died from a brain haemorrhage in Sydney, Australia, while on tour at the age of 54.

Another shot for a group that does not yet exist. Here's the skinny: hot_tea has a very cool idea to start a group called "Leave a Penny." A random act of decency for the superstitious among us -- yes, I do count myself in that group! So, just document the act & voila... please comment if you'd be interested in such a group. I'll be sure to pass your thoughts along to h.t. ^_^
Tuesdays are yoga nights. I come home, hop in the shower, eat foods: Amy's Kitchen cheese pizza pocket, and a glass of milk. Mmm.
I wanted to do my FDT facing the other way, but there were certain decency issues with that + a short robe, it turns out!
When I've had powerful cars in the past I too have driven around everyone - the difference being that I always use my signals. Always.
When Frontier Airlines obliterated absorbed the Midwest Airlines brand, they at least had the decency to continue the Midwest tradition of warm cookies, baked (or at least warmed) onboard. Alas, Frontier announced last week that upon the depletion of remaining stocks of cookie dough, fresh cookie service would cease. Animal crackers will replace the trademark snack item of a once-great airline.
This is very likely the last baked-onboard cookie I'll likely eat on an US commercial airliner. This one was served en route Denver to San Francisco.

Love: a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person.
really?
then please tell me,
why does it hurt?
why does it give people such excessive emotions?
why can it make someone crazy?
why...?
Love: a feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection
what's the difference?
I wanna know.

Even on a Monday in September, Chatsworth can be pretty busy so getting half decent shots "sans-peeps" was not easy. It was also pretty gloomy so these three shots are all taken at ISO 2400 f4.5 and shutter speeds of about 1/8sec or so. They were then pushed, bent and generally knocked about way beyond the bounds of common decency!
When I caught a tram home later, the driver asked over the PA 'is she skipping clockwise or anti-clockwise', when we'd passed it he asked again. A random reason to love Melbourne.
[Also because a guy told his gf off for trying to claim the taxi my friend had hailed - a lovely late night act of decency]
During his working visit to Chernivtsi, the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with students of Yuriy Fedkovych Chernivtsi National University, Bukovinian State Medical University and Chernivtsi Institute of Trade and Economic of State University of Trade and Economics.
The Head of State spoke with Ukrainian youth about our country, its future, and the work on the analogy of the Marshall Plan for Ukraine. The President said that the main issue of this plan is the restoration of Ukraine: its energy, technology, and economy. According to preliminary estimates, this will require about $700 billion. However, the amount is not final.
"We do not know the real amounts because the war is not over yet. When it is over, we will analyze everything. Basically, the partners agree that everyone will help rebuild Ukraine, that the amounts are, let's say, understandable and affordable. Let's believe in the decency of our partners and hope that they will accept what they say and not just say it," he noted.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy is also confident that Ukraine will become a member of the EU and NATO in the coming years.
"NATO is our external defense and, of course, the best security commitment. But I am also convinced that we will strengthen our internal defense. We will strengthen our security at the borders, in the cities, in the communities. In the future, there will be a completely different approach to both security and construction," the President of Ukraine said.
The Head of State added that once the war is over, our country will also pursue the development of various areas of education: medicine, psychology, security, and construction.
Ukraine will need specialists in these fields.
Gilad Shalit's plight has gone on far too long, and he must be released and brought back home! Gilad and his family will *never* be the same again - the terrorist kidnappers already killed a part of him long ago, but they should at least have the decency (not to mention observing international law and the Geneva Conventions, and respect for Gilad's human rights) to allow him regular contact with his family and the outside world, as well as third-party medical care.
Ever since Ariadna suggested I could regard "rhythm" in a more architectural way, thinking of the city, I'd see Salvador buildings and words like that would flow into my mind.
The newer parts of Salvador, in my illiterate opinion, are a confusion of ugly "modern" buildings, thrusting against the sky without any decency. No urban planing. No nothing. Mess. Confusion. How could I relate that to rhythm...? Cacophony. Dysrhythmia. Arrhythmia.
I've tried several shots for this theme, and was never satisfied. Or didn't find the time to post it. Now I finally have, but I still want to try another idea I've had for it. Let's see what the future will bring...
Day 41. Topic: Rhythm (suggested by Ariadna).

On a walk around the Addington Cemetery with a wonderful Flickr friend. February 13, 2016 Christchurch New Zealand.
There is so much damaged in the cemetery because of the earthquake we have had. It is such a pity as I don' think it will ever be fully repaired.
The Addington Cemetery was established in 1858 when the Scottish Presbyterians of St Andrew’s Church purchased land for a cemetery in Selwyn Street. Although not the first cemetery in Christchurch, Addington was in fact the first “public” cemetery, “being open to all persons of any religious community” and allowing the performance of any religious service “not contrary to public decency”.
The first burial took place on the 10th of November 1858. The cemetery has several persons of note buried within its grounds including activist Kate Sheppard, Christchurch Mayor Tommy Taylor and members of the pioneer family, the Deans.

Tribute to Abimael Guzmán. Sure, he was an idealistic fool and responsible for untold suffering, but at least he had a most uncommon decency to christen his merry band of butchers with a cool name.

Today, riding from Punakaiki to Hokitika, was road-sign day: saw loads of them and finally found the decency to stop, turn back and take a shot! (or recognise them early enough to stop!)
They have this huge (10cm) snail here which is endangered so I'm guessing this is what it's about.
