In one of the weekly challenge groups I belong to, we had to do fruit, and as I'm also trying to include the beach each week, I took along a pineapple.
I then thought I might as well snap it for my daily pic as well, and also for the 365 treasure hunt, number 27 fruit :)
This public bench (and its very fetching shadow) is located at Ardbeg Point, near Rothesay on the Isle of Bute.
I visited Rothesay many times when I was growing up (it was the regular destination for family holidays) but hadn't been there in many years until November 2006 (when this was taken). My return was to help celebrate my parents' Golden Wedding anniversary. I took this shot while having a Sunday morning walk out to Port Bannantyne (and back again).
Displacement mapped stone tile texture over a statue of a woman, and used a painterly effect on background.

Discrimination and Displacement: Life for the Aboriginal communities of Western Australia.
The book This is My Country: igg.me/at/ThisIsMyCountry/x/7817154
PLS Listen to the video, it's less than 3 min.
Kennedy Hill is an Aboriginal community that sits on pristine land overlooking the sea in Broome, a resort town on the north coast of Western Australia. Though Aboriginal people have lived in Kennedy Hill for generations, the residents are now threatened with displacement as the result of a recent government declaration.
Photojournalist Ingetje Tadros settled in Broome not far from the Mallingbarr Community, known to the locals as Kennedy Hill and because of a lifelong interest in the fate of indigenous people, became friends with many of the people living there. Ingetje found people in distress, mistreated by their government, misunderstood by the aid community and largely invisible to Australian society: a voiceless and unseen community. She photographed her neighbours and friends and her images brought their story, This Is My Country, to the world.
Kennedy Hill is not alone. There are more than 100 indigenous communities threatened with displacement in Western Australia under the current government's mandate. This Is My Country will stand as a permanent testament to the commitment of these communities to endure, to resist displacement and to protect traditional settlements.
This Is My Country went out as a plea to Australian society to hear the voice of their First People. It was widely published in Australia (and by STERN in Germany) and received recognition worldwide with, among others, the Walkley Award for Excellence in Photojournalism -Feature Photographic Essay- 2015 (the Australian equivalent of the Pulitzer Prize), the Amnesty International Media Awards 2015, photography, Best Feature Photographic Essay at the West Australian Media Awards 2015, the Exposure Award, digital display at The Louvre in Paris 2015.
The publication of This Is My Country will create a permanent record of and bring attention to the plight of Aboriginal communities under threat. It will serve as a call to Australian society to support their First People and end the displacement of their communities.
The Photographer
This Is My Country looks at people standing on the precipice of life: disenfranchised, neglected and now threatened with displacement.
I moved to Australia twelve years ago and was deeply affected by what I saw. I set out to document the lives of Australia's indigenous people, travelling to remote regions of Australia’s vast and unforgiving outback to spend time in Aboriginal communities and witness their life on the margins. I heard and felt their discontent. I found communities fractured and in distress with high incidences of alcoholism, domestic violence and suicide. I saw that communities were mismanaged by their governments, not fully understood by the wider aid community and largely invisible to the remainder of Australian society.
I had the good fortune to live close to an Aboriginal community where I settled in Broome (a resort town by the sea on the north coast of Western Australia). Kennedy Hill, as it is called, lies on a beautiful piece of land overlooking the sea a short distance and on pristine real estate.
I feel strongly that the Aboriginal people are not treated with the respect they deserve as the First Peoples of this country. When you sit with the people and hear their stories it becomes obvious how beautiful these people are. Their connection with their land, their country and their family, is something we all can learn from.
Kennedy Hill is just one community that exists in the shadows of Western Australian Premier Colin Barnett’s commitment to close down approximately 100 - 150 Aboriginal communities in Western Australia. There are more than 270 remote Indigenous communities in Western Australia which is home to 12,000 people. Aboriginal Elders and Leaders are shocked and see the closing down of communities as a threat.
As confronting as some of my photographs are here, I hope that they will communicate the plight of the people in them. And act as a catalyst for debate and- and as an agent for social change – no matter how small.
The Book : igg.me/at/ThisIsMyCountry/x/7817154
This Is My Country will be a hard cover book of 112 pages with 70 black and white photographs and an introduction by aboriginal writer and film maker mitch torres. It will be printed in a hardbound edition on 170 gsm paper at Ofset Yapimevi in Istanbul where all of FotoEvidence's high quality books are produced.
By backing This Is My Country you will be part of creating an enduring document about the struggle for justice of Australia's First People and supporting Aboriginal communities as they fight displacement.

So I recently had the idea of doing a series of "Follow me on Flickr" images that I would essential deploy as an ad campaign on Instagram, posting these "FMOF" images every few days with a link back to my Flickr stream.
The idea came because I really don't like Instgram at all as a place to post my work (I much prefer the Flickr community), but I might still use that platform to boost my profile on Flickr.
That said, I'm really not as interested in any additional attention I might get from the campaign as I am in the creative exercise of the FMOF series itself, which is as much about design as photography.
Because of this, I'll probably post my FMOF images here as well just because they're fun. Particularly the one's that turn out especially well, like the oil drums.
(also, most of the FMOF series will utilize displacement maps in Photoshop, which I just love for some reason)

The Grey Ghost.
The Big E.
The most decorated ship of the US Navy in WWII.
The Enterprise is THE ship I set out to build when I started my AFOL journey several months ago. It has been countless hours and many many revisions to get her into a shape that I hope can do her justice. I am beyond excited to share this WIP first look. This has been an iterative process as I find myself keep going back and revisit certain parts of the ship. I want to do my best to get it right, so please be patient with my updates while I juggle between a full-time job and making meaningful progress. As always, all feedbacks and criticisms are welcome!
With another boat-load of new traction delivered to Kingmoor the knock-on effect on the older DRS traction will become apparent once these new locomotives come into service. There's *rumours* that even more Class 68s are going to be ordered and there's *anticipated speculation* that DRS will be making Class 37/4s available for sale once surplus to requirements.

Separation. Displacement. Asunder.
A boundary. A union. A contradiction.
Diremptio is incongruity and antithesis, in agreement; two planes in the same space separated by form, shape, color, depth, meaning; each a stilled moment in its own time joined in common boundary by a contrary moment, like fingerprints on a window, unique, separate, together.
An ongoing series.
When I was checking out the special effects on my little camera I took this shot of my garden shed... Then my friend, Don, sent me a link to a tutorial on how to use displacement maps to make an effect like wavy glass.. So here is the result of both endeavors... Thanks, Don...
To be honest with you this was the only image of Clara and I that I could find where are heads were close enough to use the displacement filter for this effect. But this picture was taken on our 25th Anniversary. We had our 50th in 2019

Combining two Sentinel-1 radar scans from 20 August (Sentinel-1B) and 26 August 2016 (Sentinel-1A), this interferogram shows changes that occurred during the 24 August earthquake that struck central Italy.
The seven interferometric ‘fringes’ correspond to about 20 cm of surface deformation in the radar sensor line of sight. Each fringe (which is associated to a colour cycle) corresponds to approximately 2.8 cm of displacement.
Although Sentinel-1 has a swath width of 250 km over land surfaces, its pass over Italy on 26 August did not cover the entire area affected. Another acquisition planned for 27 August will cover the entire earthquake zone.

Cottereau was a French car manufacturer operating in Dijon between 1898 and 1911.
The company Cotterau et Cie began manufacturing cars in 1898. The first model, the Voiturine, had an air-cooled V2 engine with a displacement of 1.1 liters and of 3 Cv (Cheval-vapeur). This was followed by a 3½ Cv model and four-cylinder 10 Cv and 20 Cv models.
In 1903 came a single-cylinder model, Populaire, of 5 Cv and in 1904 a three-cylinder model with a displacement of 2.5 liters. In 1906 there were models with, among other things, 8 Cv, 12/14 Cv and a racing car with a full 18.3 liter displacement. In 1908 came the four-cylinder model 22/26 Cv with 4.2-liter displacement and in 1910 the single-cylinder model 9 CV.
The Cottereau cars were characterized by the round shape of the radiator, which became part of the brand.
