Life will come our way,
It has only just begun.
The world will die alone
The frail will fall below.
Time will take our place.
We return it back to one
The calm before the cold,
The long and lonely road.
Look for the light that leads me home.
Tired of feeling lost, tired of letting go.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
Failure.
Drive the cloud away,
We will fall from last to none.
The dark before the dawn,
The world will carry on.
Look for the light that leads me home.
Tired of feeling lost, tired of letting go.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
Tired of wasted breath, tired of nothing left.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
Failure.
Tired of feeling lost, tired of letting go.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
Tired of wasted breath, tired of nothing left.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
We bury the sunlight (Failure), we bury the sunlight (Failure).
Failure! Failure.
We bury the sunlight (Failure), we bury the sunlight (Failure).
Failure! Failure.
Failure....

Sometimes you have to go back to the start to remember where you came from.
Flit crawls from the burning wreckage making her way to the nearest wasteland outpost. The markers have changed and she quickly becomes lost in the blowing sandstorms.
Looking down at her rusting arm she quickly remembers why she left in the first place, she could never belong here anymore - the tales forgot - buried deep in the junkyard tunnels.
If she remembers correctly, there was an old jump point along the coast past the North Yard, maybe she can find her way back there and rift to the next destination in her log...

Azoury - Peu de mots Mask @ Fameshed
My MM subject failed on pretty much all accounts. My ISOs were too high from a previous shot and I forgot to check. The heart (less than an inch) kept moving about (I had attached it to a longer chain which I stuck on the window with tape) so I couldn't photo stack and I couldn't use a different aperture as I didn't want the background to show. I had many things on my list today and didn't have much time for this and the light was fading. Can you believe that in the back of the heart a rainbow appeared due to a passing thunderstorm and I could not combine the two in one image? Lots of bad words! In the end I went with b&w because the blown out highlights didn't seem that bad then.
Today I noticed almost a mass emergence of Common Darters, I saw 15 or so Teneral Common Darters flying up from the waters edge of the Grantham Canal. I decided to see if any were emerging from the fountain this year. Sure enough I found many exuviae around the wall of the fountain and then I found this poor individual.
I found this one this afternoon, after watching for a while I soon realised that it was a failed emergence. For whatever reason this is as far as this one got, The head had just broken through and then I guess something went wrong. So anyway I took a 22 image focus stack using my 1000D, ISO 200, aperture F/6.3 and a 1/160 shutter speed. Thought it made an interesting image.

Guy Fawkes day in the UK is the day celebrated of the failure of Guy Fawkes to blow up Parliament
The sale of fireworks has fallen off in recent years and more fixed displays
This house was undermined by a flood a handful of years ago. Slowly the house collapsed with its belongings still inside. Located in rural Brown County, Ohio a few miles north of the Ohio River.
So... don't be afraid of failure... it's just a 'detour' towards success...
Have a great Easter Long Weekend everyone!
My plans do not always work as I intended - this was early morning, and the water access I had scouted on Google maps was a big failure. New construction, heavy cranes, and big fences prevented access, and I had no Plan B for the area.
The morale of the photo; failure is part of the process.....do not let a lousy shoot discourage you.
GPS is the exact spot of the shot.

Seems to be the curse of RV's. Even though I buy quality name brand tires, use the highest ply rating available, and run a tire pressure and temperature monitoring system, it still happens. This sounded like a gunshot when it blew out. Failures like this can cause a lot of damage to the RV. Fortunately not too bad in this case. Part of the problem may be that I travel a lot of dirt roads or make my own roads over rough conditions. I now travel with two spares, just in case!
Junagah (Inde) - On ne va pas se raconter d’histoires, ce n’est pas du tout la photo que je voulais. En 2008, je venais de faire l’acquisition de mon premier appareil numérique et j’étais loin de le maîtriser.
Pour cette photo d’un tailleur qui attend le client, je voulais faire un portrait classique, mais assez large pour intégrer la machine à coudre. Elément qui à lui seul informe sur le métier de l’artisan. Une photo à priori facile à faire.
L’homme avait une bonne tête. Je me suis accoudé sur le comptoir de son échoppe ouverte sur la rue pour le photographier en légère contre plongée.
`J’ai fait - enfin, c’est ce que je croyais -, la mise au point sur le visage et j’ai déclenché.
De retour à l’hôtel, j’ai réalisé que ma photo était ratée. Comme les capteurs de l’autofocus étaient réglés, par défaut, en « multi-zones », l’automatisme a choisi de faire le point sur la partie de la photo qui lui semblait la plus importante. Ici, c’est la main. Résultat, comme j’avais une ouverture relativement élevée limitant la profondeur de champ, le visage qui était le plus important se retrouve… flou. Alors que dans mon esprit c’est la main qui aurait dû être floue pour mettre en valeur le visage.
Coup de chance, je trouve que cette photo fonctionne malgré tout. Je n’ai aucun mérite. C’est le hasard de l’électronique embarquée qui a fait le boulot.
En photo, il faut pourtant limiter les effets du hasard technique. Encore moins laisser l’appareil faire la photo à votre place. Si cette fois, ça a fonctionné, dans 99 % des cas la photo sera véritablement ratée.
Junagah (India) - We're not going to tell each other stories, this isn't the photo I wanted at all. In 2008, I had just purchased my first digital device and was far from mastering it.
For this photo of a couturier waiting for a client, I wanted to do a classic portrait, but with the sewing machine included. Element which in itself informs about the craft of the craftsman. A photo a priori rather easy to take.
The man had a good head. I leaned on the counter of his shop open to the street to photograph him in slight low angle. I did - well, that's what I thought - the focus on the face and triggered.
When I got back to the hotel, I realized my photo had failed. As the autofocus sensors were set by default to "multi-zones", the automation chose to focus on the part of the photo that seemed to be the most important. Here is the hand. As a result, since I had a relatively high aperture, limiting the depth of field, the face was found… blurry. Whereas in my mind it is the hand that should have been blurred to highlight the face.
Luckily, I find that finally this photo works anyway. But I have no merit. The on-board electronics did the job.
In photos, however, we must limit the effects of technical chance. Even less let the camera take the photo for you. If this time it worked, in 99% of cases the photo will really be a failure.
Here is a different frame unedited raw file which was only cropped. Actually I like this version better. This is why I stress to get it right in the camera,first It makes developing all that much easier. The Fuji-x allows you to over and under expose and see it in the viewfinder. It is a big advantage in getting the correct exposure.
Habitat shot of an Indian vulture or Long billed vulture (Gyps indicus). In South Asia three Gyps species, the Asian white-backed vulture (G. bengalensis), the long-billed vulture (G. indicus), and the slender-billed vulture (G. tenuirostris), have been brought close to extinction by feeding on the carcasses of dead cattle that had been given pain-killing drugs; the pain killers cause kidney failure in the vultures.
... is always an option.

Roid Week Autumn Day 1/2
Me and my daughter planned a location but we did not plan for a storm. This just made the shoot more fun. We had fun even if the shoot did not go as planned. Does life ever go as planned, then we just change the plan and have fun
On my way home yesterday I visited a house I had seen before with an old Sierra in the drive. The grass has grown up around the car quite a lot so I guess it hasn't been driven for a while! I decided to desaturate the image quite a bit but not go for the whole black and white thing.

CP 143 is stopped in Dorval due to issues with the leader (Air Force unit CP 7023) as crewmembers and shop forces look on. After further delay caused by having to set off a car, the train would continue to Smiths Falls where further problems with CP 7023 would cause it to be moved to trail position. At right are two stopped intermodal trains on the CN Montreal Sub (CN 108 & CN 186).

Failure To Thrive [ The Gray Child ] by Storm Septimus is on LEA 15.
Unusually, this is not the recommended windlight setting - my fail. Blog post: tizzycanucci.com/?p=4757
"Night Time is the Right Time"
45 min. @f5.6.... moon at 97% illumination....
Started this 5 min. before moon rise, planning a 10 - 15 minute exposure..... the horizon was very cloudy, prompting a need for a longer exposure, but how much longer????
Judging from past failures, this was my best guess, pretty close :)
