The Story Behind...
Her mind is totally healthy, but her body is leaving her behind a little. She is somewhere in her late 80s and until last year she lived on her own.
But then her body starts shutting down a little bit, she felt and now she can walk not that good enough anymore. Because there is noone in the family that wants to take care of her (ohh I wish I could!) she has to live in a place for old people with nurses that take care.
She is in a section where noone can speak well or is able to walk. Her mind is working so perfectly and also her speak is still working super fine! But what is the use. There is noone to talk to. Family will visit her once a week or something.
This photo is about her. The double view of the fight between body and mind, the double view of the emptyness around her and the emotions in her.
She is such a sweet and beautiful woman. I wanted to portrait her, because I think her death may be comming soon. It's my way to honour her and her life.
I also wanted to tell her story, because she has noone to talk.
One day I will make this photo in a big print and hang it on the wall...
LOVE it or HATE it. There's is nothing in-between when it comes to the DURIAN.
Odorously fulsome but intoxicatingly sweet, the durian emits a stink which welcomes those who await its season. Strangers of the fruit of course scream at its sewer smell. But eating the golden flesh of cream and honey will convince even the uninitiated why the durian is considered by many as the king of fruits. Long banned in airports and hotels, the durian is also known to be a dangerous projectile to anyone sneaking a shade under the tree during its fruit-ripening season.
I am guilty to have been party to the flesh's demise in the picture above. This photo is taken one late night at the Banilad fruit stand, Cebu City, the Philippines.

I've decided to go through and re-process some of my images from my trip to Venice in 2011. Didn't take long before I was longing for another trip there. Such a beautiful place with views like this around every corner.

Watco Australia's WRA002 and WRA006 lead a Roma bound empty grain train west through the Power Station Crossing around 8 K east of Miles, Queensland, this afternoon.
This was amazing, an empty hallway in Versailles. No people!
As I remember it, the palace was packed with wall to wall people.
I just happened to catch a lull in the procession.
The scope of Versailles is beyond my imagination. Room after room, art piece after art piece. So much history. A several hour visit doesn't do it justice, but longer would be information overload.
I was very glad to get outside to the gardens and away from the crowds.

When I put a grid across this image it looks close to true, but the slight angle of the shadows across the floor makes it look skewed to my eye.

A detail of the base of the waterfall Öxarárfoss in Iceland.
Öxarárfoss is a small waterfall in Þingvellir National Park, Iceland. It flows from the river Öxará. The base of the waterfall is filled with basalt rocks.
Best on black.
An interesting one this, and a tad frustrating.
A Sellafield - Barrow Ramsden Dock appeared in RTT on Sunday for today, as did a path for the return working.
These workings would be transporting the out-of-guage Japanese nuclear flasks but unfortunately I didn't know in which direction the train would be loaded.
That was a pain as I was unable to get the day off and had to make do with swapping a shift in order to phot' it.
With the outward travelling mid' morning and the return mid' afternoon it was either get on a back-shift and shoot the morning train or an early shift and do the later return.
I took a punt on the later train after checking the weather forecast and that turned out to be the wrong option as this was the unladen journey!
Weather was crap anyway so it didn't really matter in the end. I used the exercise as an opportunity to try out my new "L"-series 70-200mm lens.
The result's a bit grainy as the rainy gloom meant ISO 800 was called for.
For the record No.37606 leads the empty KXA at Gutterby with No.37602 on the rear as 7C24.

"What do you mean they're empty? There are supposed to be treats in there!" Flattery has had a rude awakening this evening. It may take a day or two to recover...

Playing with some lights in an abandoned school in Iowa at 4am. Turn off that flashlight and it was totally pitch black.

57602 'Restormel Castle' passes Bathampton on 9 December 2024 with empty 'Night Riviera' stock en-route between Pymouth Laira and Reading depots. The previous night’s up ‘beds’ service had been cancelled due to GWR ‘staffing issues’. Apparently, insufficient staff have been volunteering to work on their rest days, leading the operator to advise against using its services on Sundays. I think that’s known in the business world as ‘managed decline’…
An empty station, well that is what it seemed like when I took this photograph at Wansford Station on the 15th September 2017. It was the eve of the Nene Valley Railway Annual Autumn Steam Gala and LNER A4 Gresley Pacific 4-6-2 No.60009 Union Of South Africa [which was the special guest locomotive over the weekend] was preparing for the Fish And Chip Special on the Friday night.
Empty shops and business premises are a common sight on UK High Streets, but many vacancies are relatively short lived - the shops are soon in use again although in these difficult times, the new business only have a limited life.
This collection portrays retail outlets that have been empty long-term, some for many years. In the past, all these have housed thriving businesses. Yet now, for some reason, they are empty and some are falling into a state of disrepair and dilapidation.
Each has its own story to tell. Some are completely empty, others seem to have stopped trading suddenly and appear like the Marie-Celeste, still with stock in the windows. In many cases, we can tell easily from the faded signage what business last operated from the shop. Others are a complete mystery with faded blinds or shutters and all signs removed.
The covered walkway from near the former Avenue store.
The Lincoln Park Shopping Center opened in 1957 as one of the Detroit Area's largest shopping centers. The Sears opened the previous year and was once the top grossing Sears store. In the 2000s the shopping center became mostly empty besides Dollar Tree, Sears, and a Big Boy Restaurant on an out-parcel. Plans for a Walmart to open at the shopping center fell through twice.

And... I still cry...
For all my killed friends, neighbors and their kids!
YOU will be always in my heart!
I survived this madness, but THEY didn't!
NEVER FORGET!

The sun breaks through the clouds to illuminate the empty playground.
The playground was being renovated, so all of the equipment was off limits.
"You stare at empty mirrors, looking for a sign. Nothing but reflections of the faults that left you blind. Calling for a savior to convince you it's alright, running from the consequence, you're wasting precious time, there’s nowhere left to hide..."
Or maybe this case, empty windows? Either way, this time I'm using the new LeLutka Alain head rather than the LeLutka Skyler I had in previous pictures.
I made the shape in just a few minutes so I'll probably fudge with it more, but I think he looks okay considering the quick job... but I'll let everyone have their own opinions, of course. :)
Seeing out their remaining days working from Longsight Depot as set LO253, Class 108 cars M54275 & M51421 pass Stake Hill Industrial estate, Middleton, running as empty stock back to Manchester.. They, and other similar life-expired first generation dmus, were kept in service due to the then ongoing problems with the Class 142 Pacer fleet
