I got up at 4-30AM and rolled out of London. It was like the old days driving to a job out of town. But when I started driving the difference between now and back in the day when I used to this all the time (before I moved to the States) became apparent. There must have been twenty speed and bus lane cameras as I left Camden and before I made it to the Holloway Road. Then there must have been another 60 before I made it to the M11 on the edge of town. Its 5AM there is no traffic and no people and yet you must drive at exactly 20 and then 30mph on 3 lane roads or set off the speeding cameras. No wonder Britain owes $100,000 per family...... its all gone on speeding cameras and CCTV surveillance....... I've never really been against any of this stuff in principle....... But when its taken to extreme like this....... Suddenly the big brother state is a reality.
I suddenly took a jump to being against it........
I felt previously you cannot really be against CCTV and surveillance photography if you are a photographer........ because you do not find harm or objection in photography or filming......... but when its done by the State with the specific aim of spying on its subjects it becomes something else..... particularly when it becomes endemic. There is certainly a loss of freedom for the citizens of a surveillance state.
I know the people of what was previously East Germany have laws banning surveillance. Those people value their freedom. Having previously lived in a repressive Stalinist State. A State that used constant surveillance of citizens and constantly monitored and spied on all of them. People of former East Germany know what that is like to be monitored and surveilled, they fear and reject it.
In Britain we have sleep walked into it. I did not reject it out of hand as I was not doing anything wrong and I don't fear photography. But it is now endemic in Britain. The UK has more cameras and monitoring equipment per head of population than any other State in the world.
I began to really consider how a reportage artist and photojournalist can be against this stuff and obviously still in favor of their own photography. Suddenly I thought of East Germany where any kind of independent journalism or reportage and free artistic expression was banned and State surveillance was all pervasive. I realized that while they are all photographic they are at totally opposite ends of the spectrum. They are not similar in anyway.
Anything banned in East Germany is pretty likely to be a good thing...... anything practiced to the point that it defined the East German State...... is bound to be an abomination.
Today Britain's new coalition Government through the Queens Speech announced its proposed legislative agenda........ They have defined their proposals as attempting to bring freedom, fairness and responsibility...... under the freedom section they are proposing to address the spread of CCTV surveillance. They might be on to something surely I can't be the only Brit thinking like Winston Smith.
I don't have any pictures on me right now........ well none to go with any of these thoughts...... and what I was shooting in another one of my 24 hour days on the Coast of Suffolk cannot yet go on the blog........... so here is a frame shot from a yellow cab....... in a country that wisely is paranoid about CCTV and surveillance........ anyway here is a shot from my last trip to fly out of New York's JFK.

This is a photograph from the 13th annual running of the Tom Brennan Memorial 5KM Road Race and Fun Run which was held on Furze Road, Phoenix Park, Chapelizod, Dublin, Ireland on New Year's Day Monday 1st January 2018 at 12:00. The race route is a two loop course which starts and finishes on the Furze Road in the middle of the Phoenix Park. Participants follow a clockwise, right-handed, looped route around Furze Road, Ordnance Survey and Chesterfield Avenue. The loop course is also another difference of this race from traditional 5KM road racing. The weather on New Year's Day in the Phoenix Park is always unpredictable and today was no different. A particularly strong headwind into the faces of participants along Furze road (between 2KM and 3KM) made this particular section tough going for everyone. There was also a particularly cold icy feel in the air. However several hundred runners, joggers and walkers shook off the effects of Christmas celebrations to take part. The route itself is flat without any noticeable undulations. This year's race had one of the biggest field of participants in its long and well established history.
The race is organised and promoted by the local athletics club Liffey Valley Athletic Club who are based in Islandbridge, Dublin 8 and have a catchment area around this part of Dublin city. The race itself commemorates the memory and contribution of former club member Tom Brennan who won the National Cross Country Championships in 1975 in UCD Belfield at the age of 24 years. A special commemorative perpetual trophy is presented to the winner of the race every year. The race is also of particular interest to those runners, joggers and walkers who are not necessarily involved in the competitive side of road racing. Annually the race is the first of a series of races in Dublin city which make up the Lord Mayor’s 5 Alive Challenge. This initiative by Dublin City Council is now in its sixth year and several hundred runners, joggers and walkers volunteer to take part in five of Dublin’s most popular road races. Dublin City Council makes an open call for people to register to be a part of the programme in autumn every year. The Liffey Valley Club and many other volunteers work hard to make this a very successful event. Undertaking a road race event in any location is a challenging task. However the Phoenix Park presents a unique challenge in terms of traffic flow around this part of Dublin and general logistics. Despite this these efforst by the host club are greatly appreciated as is evident by the turn out every year. It provides a splendid opening of the New Year for runners of all abilities. It is also a fitting 'official' start to the new calendar year of road racing in the Dublin and North Leinster region.

Let's get a bit technical: We use Creative Commons Licensing for these photographs
We use the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License for all our photographs here in this photograph set. What does this mean in reality?
The explaination is very simple.

ShareAlike – anyone can use these photographs, and make changes if they like, or incorporate them into a bigger project, but they must make those changes available back to the community under the same terms.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets

The ADV’s differences compared to the Tornado IDS include a greater sweep angle on the wing gloves, the deletion of the Krueger flap, the deletion of the port cannon, a longer radome for the Foxhunter radar, slightly longer airbrakes, and the fuselage lengthened by 4 feet (1.36 m) to carry four Skyflash semi-active radar homing missiles. The additional plug in the fuselage is immediately behind the cockpit, which had the added benefit of reducing drag and making space for an additional fuel tank. The Tornado ADV was designed to serve as an interceptor against the threat of Soviet bombers rather than an air superiority fighter. Compared to the RAF’s previous interceptor, the Phantom, the Tornado had greater acceleration, twice the range and loiter time, and was more capable of operating from short “austere” airstrips. The F3’s Foxhunter radar was capable of performing much longer and wider scans of surrounding airspace and was able to track and engage targets at far greater distances.
In this image, two Tornado F3s, ZG778 (serial number: 0AS140) and ZE736 (serial number: 003300), of No. 1435 Flight patrol the desolate coastline of the eastern Falklands. During WW2, No. 1435 Flight was a night fighter unit based in Malta, subsequently raised to squadron status, becoming the only RAF flying squadron to be given a four-digit number. After WW2, the unit was disbanded on 29 April 1945. Following the Falklands War in 1982, the Flight provided an air defence unit at RAF Stanley airfield in East Falkland but was severely damaged and reformed with the Hawker Siddeley Harrier GR.3 in late 1983 and again disbanded in May 1985. No. 23 Squadron stationed at Port Stanley Airport in October 1983 converted to the Panavia Tornado F3 in November 1988, transferring their F-4M Phantom FGR.2s to No. 1435 Flight. The Phantoms were replaced in July 1992 when four Tornado F3s arrived in the Falklands.
i liked this one, the way the black swamps over the disc... but you can still see the ring round the center.
An old abbey in Bristol, I didn't make a note of the name of the place.
There are six differences between the photos (not including brightness, contrast) the obvious one is the sky, the question is which one is the original image?
Nuance. Holding this journal, the difference is tangible. Not a perfect book, but perfect for someone. The Zerkall Frankfurt paper is truly lovely.
9.75" x 7" 96 sheets (192 pages, both sides)
Materials
>About the leather: Kodiak Oil-Tanned Leather, dark brown.
Here is a leather as rugged as its name implies. This oil-tanned leather has pronounced grain that gives character to the soft hide that is durable and moisture resistant. 4 oz.
The leather detail on front cover flap is a bit of green nubuck cowhide (an old favorite).
>About the paper: Frankfurt, Ivory, by Zerkall
Characterized by irregular 'wavy' laid lines and the sexy Zerkall watermark, Frankfurt is a delight to handle. Writing on this artisan paper versus commercial paper is a world of difference. But don't take my word for it!
Zerkall Renker & Sohne paper mill, run by the Renker family in its fourth generation, dates from 16th century in the valley of the river Kall between Cologne and Aachen in Germany. Although the mill now only manufactures mouldmade papers, their sheets mirror papers of the past while incorporating modern technology to insure stability and permanence. Zerkall mixes exacting amounts of cotton rag and high alpha cellulose to obtain sheets that are strong, yet able to absorb ink without bleeding. All their papers are acid free, neutral sized, alkaline buffered with calcium carbonate and contain no optical brighteners.
>About the endpaper: Egyptian Papyrus
Papyrus was, and continues today to be handmade from the papyrus reed that grows in freshwater marshes along the river Nile, though today this growth is rare and controlled. Egyptians considered it the "everlasting" paper because it has been found in perfect condition in tombs dating back to 2700 B.C.

Check it on Black! After a 7 week journey I'm back. Hopefully I can share some beautiful places with my Flickr pals...
"I establish boundaries which determine both what is collected and where it is collected from. Accumulating and assembling single-coloured objects, I consider the psychological influence of colour, its effect and sensory impact upon the viewer.”
Chroma is the culmination of Manchester artist Liz West’s interests and ideas over a five-year period.This new body of work, site-specific to BLANKSPACE, explores the themes of colour theory, collecting and the exploration of real and illusory space.
West’s playful and magical works, each of which she builds by hand, consist of unexpected and carefully arranged combinations of materials. Systems of ordering, classification and coding are applied in the development and generation of West’s work. She invokes the monumental, whilst utilising commonplace objects that are found and collected from the world around her

If it wasn't obvious enough already, I did not do much reading on Pokemon B & W before it got released.
I decided to restart the game, since I was torn on what pokemon to get into my team and I already went through most of the game so I had no trainers to fight and nothing to do =/.
Ah well, I made my mind up and got my new team ready now, but this time I'm playing as a Female character.
But as for the for interface..everything was pink..and hearts everywhere, why hearts! gah XD
The Pink DS is my sister's and is running Pokemon White with a male character. The Black DSi is running Pokemon Black with a Female Character.

Survived by his wife, son and daughter, Charlton died suddenly of a heart attack at his Avalon home on 10 December 1975, and was cremated. His estate was valued for probate at $131,850.
Charlton's stroke was a four-beat, trudgen crawl, called by some at the time the single trudgen crawl. There was very little leg movement: the wide scissor kick was made horizontally at the end of the left arm drive with the body turned well sideways, then followed two or three vertical kicks. His powerful arms and withering final sprint made him a champion, despite the fact that he rarely trained, preferring to surf instead. In 1968 the new Sydney Domain baths were named after him and in 1972 he was honoured by the International Swimming Hall of Fame at Fort Lauderdale, Florida, United States of America
