曾經
有人這樣問, 為什麼拍照的人喜歡拍一些舊舊, 亂亂, 人家不要的東西?
為什麼?
其實這些東西, 雖然老舊, 被人丟棄了.. 但它也有"曾經"
那"曾經"裡有人, 有事, 有生命...
那是無法抺去的記憶,
裡頭有美.
看這些事物在歲月中褪色的軌跡, 總不免引人惆悵....
但生命不會只有單一面向
我們總會在這當中與另一個新生命不期而遇..
裡頭有希望.
喜歡新舊交會的這一刻..
Once,
somebody asked, why photographer loves to take the picture of old, random, abandoned things?
Why?
Those things may aged, damaged, unused, however, they also owned "ever been".
There are people, affair, and life in the "ever been"
A memory couldn't be erase.
There' s a beauty inside.
It's usually depressed people while seeing these things fade in the time.
However, life won't be a one way.
We always encounter another new life at that time.
And there is hope inside.
Love the moment, old v.s. new.

Named for the nearby Pripyat River, Pripyat was founded on 4 February 1970, the ninth nuclear city in the Soviet Union, for the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. It was officially proclaimed a city in 1979, and had grown to a population of 49,360 before being evacuated a few days after the 26 April 1986 Chernobyl disaster.
Though Pripyat is located within the administrative district of Ivankiv Raion, the abandoned city now has a special status within the larger Kiev Oblast (province), being administered directly from Kiev. Pripyat is also supervised by Ukraine's Ministry of Emergencies, which manages activities for the entire Chernobyl Exclusion Zone.
Access to Pripyat, unlike cities of military importance, was not restricted before the disaster as nuclear power stations were seen by the Soviet Union as safer than other types of power plants. Nuclear power stations were presented as being an achievement of Soviet engineering, where nuclear power was harnessed for peaceful projects. The slogan "peaceful atom" (Russian: ?????? ????, mirnyj atom) was popular during those times. The original plan had been to build the plant only 25 km (16 mi) from Kiev, but the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences, among other bodies, expressed concern about it being too close to the city. As a result, the power station and Pripyat were built at their current locations, about 100 km (62 mi) from Kiev. After the disaster the city of Pripyat was evacuated in two days.
A 35 man (plus guides) trip to the Ukraine exploring Chernobyl, the village, Duga 3, Pripyat and Kiev including Maidan (Independence Square) and observing the peaceful protests underway.
Some new faces, some old, made new friends and generally we were in our elements.
Rhetorical question but did we have a blast? You bet!
Amazing group, top guys. Till the next time!

We checked “Aurora” app, there was a chance to see Northern Lights at Uttakleiv Beach. We went in the afternoon, just a reminder: you had to pay the parking, there was a camera at the gate to record car plate photos. Flew drone a little bit, took the sunset photos, then waited for the northern lights…
We could not express our feeling when we saw the northern lights dancing on the sky, not so many people waited at night, but we could hear the “WOOOW!!!” The northern lights changed shapes quickly… Here you are!
We stayed for 9-10 hours that night, from 3pm to 1am, wore two down jackets, one down pants, so worth it!
Later we talked to the local people about it, they said we were lucky to see Northern Light!!! Not all the people are so lucky, due to thick clouds blocking the sky, you could not see it even KP index are strong...

Time To Find A Cozy Spot Til Spring Comes Calling! By Taryn Campbell
Realized a few minutes ago, that one of my pics was in Explore and on frontpage too....
This happened the first time and actually not I'm not sure, if I shall be proud of this or if the whole explore thing is a funny marketing tool from Flickr...
But however, many thanks to all regularly contacts, guests and visitors of my stream... much appreciated and your comments and/or favs are the real honor to me!!!

#7 on Explore, 8/9/23
This was the highest ranking Explore I have ever received, and I have been completely overrun with views, faves and comments. They are all very much appreciated but I am just unable to respond to all of them!
It was an overcast and rainy day that had me dodging rain most of the day. The greens were so vivid and lush that I actually pulled the saturation down as they looked fake!
Letchworth State Park, Castile, New York. Renowned as the "Grand Canyon of the East," is one of the most scenically magnificent areas in the eastern U.S. The Genesee River roars through the gorge over three major waterfalls between cliffs--as high as 600 feet in some places--surrounded by lush forests. Hikers can choose among 66 miles of hiking trails. Trails are also available for horseback riding, biking, snowmobiling, and cross-country skiing. Letchworth offers nature, history and performing arts programs, guided walks, tours, a summer lecture series, whitewater rafting, kayaking, a pool for swimming and hot air ballooning.
