Maybe I led you to believe it was easy when it wasn’t.
也許我在艱難時的表現，讓你誤會成功很容易。
Maybe made you think my highlights started at the free throw line, and not in the gym.
也許你認為我的爆發力，需要罰球線，而不需要健身房。
Maybe I made you think that every shot I took was a game winner.
也許我讓你認為我永遠都以冠軍之姿上了鏡頭。
That my game was built on flash, and not fire.
我似乎只存在於鏡頭之間，而不存在於戰火裡。
Maybe it’s my fault that that you didn’t see that failure gave me strength;
也許這是我的錯，你沒有看到失敗給了我力量;
That my pain was my motivation.
我的動力其實來自於痛苦。
Maybe I led you to believe that basketball was a God given gift, and not something I worked for… every single day of my life.
也許我使你相信，籃球是上帝賦予我的禮物，不是我無止盡的苦苦追尋，我是說，我生命中的，每。一。天。
Maybe I destroyed the game.
也許我的確使比賽不再是單純的比賽。
Or maybe… your just making excuses.
或也許…你只是在為自己找藉口。

We had a few days away in Northumberland recently - our summer holidays apparently – my fault- It was destined to be a road trip rather than a walking trip as I have recently been diagnosed with arthritis in my right ankle. The ankle is giving me a lot of pain although I’m told that it is a tendon that’s giving the pain not the arthritis (I’m not convinced). I had a bad ankle injury around 14 years ago and it’s come back to bite me. I’ve spent the last six months on my feet or climbing in and out of different machines non-stop for between 10 and 12 hours a day and I needed to try and give my ankle a rest.
We decided to visit a few places that we bypassed on our way north two years ago. Castle Barnard was first, it was Monday morning and we wandered around and had a coffee, a nice place. Next up was Bishop Auckland, I do a bit of business here so I had a quick look at John Denham’s (quite impressive) yard. Basically, we looked at the map and headed to the next place that looked interesting, eventually hitting the east coast and following the coastal road to Alnwick-where we were staying for four nights.
At this point I must admit that I wasn’t in holiday – or photography- mode, It’s been all about work for six months, very intense and I haven’t been able (or particularly wanted to) switch off and relax. For the first time in a long time I haven’t had any interest in taking photos. I’ve done a tiny amount of editing and uploading - compared with my usual output that is. Most of my uploads have been work that was already edited and ready to upload and I have grabbed a few minutes here and there to put them on Flickr. The occasional trip to the Lakes hasn’t inspired me either. With hindsight, this is how this trip turned out, I took very few photos, being in a car, you are rarely in the right spot at the right time, you need to be out there-on foot! We drove over the border in to Scotland a few times, Berwick and Coldstream were a couple of the places we had a coffee and a stroll, lovely places (the sun was shining!) and very friendly, every local we met in Coldstream spoke to us-and we thought that us Yorkshire folk were friendly. The weather was generally OK but we had an awful lot of grey skies.
The tide was out when we walked along the coast to Dunstanburgh Castle so I rock hopped along and got some nice shots. Most of the time we just explored, finding places that we hadn’t found on our first visit. It is fantastic driving up there and it was a road trip so from that point of view it was good.
We chose to drive home following the coast as closely as we could from Alnmouth south. Blyth, Whitley Bay, Tynemouth, under the Tyne Tunnel to South Shields, A nice coastal drive to Sunderland, again hugging the coast we made our way to the historic Headland at Hartlepool. We crossed the Tees at Middlesbrough, on to Redcar, stopping just short of Saltburn. This was the home of the steelworks that played a large part in the company’s history in the 1960’s and 70’s. We had wagons running overnight to Skinningrove, it’s why we started running bigger wagons than our competitors. I think it was a 216 mile round trip –a day’s work with the wagons of the day and no motorway, a beautiful scenic journey once beyond Leeds. I used to tag along when I was a kid, long hot days in very noisy motors. It was mid-afternoon and my trip down memory lane had to be cut short as we had to head for home, Jayne was bowling in a competition on Friday evening. all in all it was a really interesting journey and the coastline was impressive with miles of beach, towns and villages that are back on the up after the loss of mining, steel and heavy engineering etc. that traditionally supplied well paid jobs for life. We shot down the A19 and on to the A1, I wanted to see Rosebery Topping as I hadn't seen it since I was a kid, with distant views of the Cleveland Hills, needless to say there had been a five vehicle shunt on the opposite carriageway and it was gridlocked. I spotted a lot of hauliers from the North East and Scotland that I knew, trying to get home for the weekend stuck in mile after mile of standing traffic. Not a bad week but not much achieved photographically. I was in at work Friday evening, back to normal. We will be going back to the North East as there is so much to see and explore.
I mean...I don't fault the church for the fact that a Greek food festival ran out of food, but I'm sayin I was super hungry while taking photos. :/
The fault scarp from the 1983 Mt. Borah earthquake occurs near the tree line on the west side of Mt. Borah. At least one older scarp is visible parallel with the power line in the lower part of the photo. Maybe another on the near side of the power line.
This is a fault everyone can see. This normal fault, in the Abiquiu Formation, Plaza Blanca, north of Abiquiu, New Mexico is better cemented than the enclosing strata. The result is a tilted fault-hoodoo (the cemented fault plane protects the volcaniclastic strata below from ongoing erosion). View to the east.
Finally for today's extra uploads, it's about time I shared a construction progress update at the former Hernando Pizza Hut with you guys! For what it's worth, though, the delay wasn't my fault: there just hasn't been any progress for most of the year, haha!
I reported to you last year (in my full Pizza Hut closure album) that local Mexican restaurant La Siesta had picked up this location, but after that there was practically nothing to see here besides one of Hernando's "STOP WORK ORDER" signs early in the year. But even then, that sign was removed before the summertime, and literally nothing else seemed to happen here until late November. They could be doing very extensive renovations to the interior, or could just simply be waiting so long to start construction so that they get closer to their lease expiring at their current spot; who knows.
Anyway, as you can see here, the first stage of visible progress is this exterior patio/deck protruding out the front of the restaurant into Pizza Hut's former landscaping area (which is just barely visible in the top right “before” shot, comparable to the December 16th “after” view below it). This was 100% expected, considering La Siesta's current location also has an outdoor patio – and even though it is on the smaller side, I'd be willing to say it's still bigger than the one they currently have, given that being a part of a strip center limits their arrangement there. If you zoom in close enough, you can also see where they've removed one of Pizza Hut's old front windows and have put up plywood instead, soon to be the location of a new exterior door to the deck.
So that's all I have for you today. I'll do my best to keep you posted on this project, and anything else, as time goes on! :)

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
As much as the subsequent stage involving educational technology is anxious, it was some time of ‘electronic revolution' while using hardware along with software. On this stage we've got started employing projectors, television set, tape-recorder which uses a commendable change within this field. instructive invention idea ended up being taken as much as these sophisticated instruments and varieties of gear pertaining to powerful business presentation of easy-guide materials.Visit here occupytechnology

I was originally enrolled into the GETTY IMAGES collection as a contributor on April 9th 2012, and when links with FLICKR were terminated in March 2014, I was retained and fortunate enough to be signed up via a second contract, both of which have proved to be successful with sales of my photographs all over the world now handled exclusively by them.
On November 12th 2015 GETTY IMAGES unveiled plans for a new stills upload platform called ESP (Enterprise Submission Platform), to replace the existing 'Moment portal', and on November 13th I was invited to Beta test the new system prior to it being officially rolled out in December. ESP went live on Tuesday December 15th 2015 and has smoothed out the upload process considerably.
These days I take a far more leisurely approach to my photographic exploits, a Nikon D850 FX Pro body as my trusted companion, I travel light with less constraints and more emphasis on the pure capture of the beauty that I see, more akin to my original persuits and goals some five decades previously when starting out. I would like to say a huge and heartfelt 'THANK YOU' to GETTY IMAGES, and the 32.308+ Million visitors to my FLICKR site.

Photograph taken at an altitude of One hundred and forty six metres at 15:41pm on Thursday 8th November 2018, off Þingvallavegur 36 in the Þingvellir national park (Thingvellir National Park), part of the North Atlantic rift system, within the Reykjaneshryggur-Langjökull rift system.
The rift zone constitutes a graben bounded by major faults. The rift valley narrows from NE to SW with parallel fissures and down-dropped fault blocks running along the length of the valley. On the west is the North American tectonic plate on the east the Eurasian plate. The valley walls are moving apart at a rate of about 7 mm per year, the last major earthquake activity occurring in 1789. During the 1789 earthquakes the graben floor subsidised 1-2 m
Here we see what happened in 2011 when a gravel pathway in the Almannagjá fault developed a hole which opened up and revealed a larger ravine and fault ten metres below.

Don't look too closely at this one. It's actually two shots combined pretty crudely in ON1 Photo 10. I set the DxO ONE on an exhibit desk and took a shot with the 10-second timer. When I showed it to Joan, she complained that she wasn't sitting up straight. On the second take, she sat up straight — but I thought the shutter had clicked before it had and I began to stand just as the shutter clicked. I blame the DxO ONE for not being a little clearer about when the timed shutter clicks. Anyway, with the help of ON1 Photo 10, I've slapped the best parts of both shots together. The first shot is on the left, the second on the right.
On second thought, maybe it's okay to look closely. Yes, you'll find lots of imperfections — all of them my fault! And yet, here we are, together. Perhaps this is a symbol of how you stay together for 40 years in these times.

The Aspy Fault is a faultline dating back to the Ordovician geological period when it formed on the edges of Gondwanaland in the microcontinent called Avalonia. Avalonia ultimately broke up, with remnants now lying in parts of North America and western Europe. The fault itself is a major feature of the scenery of the Cape Breton Highlands in Nova Scotia, and it is possibly the same fault line which appears as the Great Glen in the Scottish Highlands.

The San Andreas fault is called the boundary between the North American and Pacific plates. It gets a lot of attention, but the plate-tectonic action actually is spread over a wide band of active faults on both sides, west and east, of the San Andreas proper. In Solano County the easternmost part of that boundary consists of the Green Valley fault. The Green Valley fault seems to rupture every thousand years or so (and last ruptured between 1600 and 1800), but there isn't much data.
Keeping fingers crossed!

Taken with a half-frame camera that I modified so the exposures would overlap.
And pick up your trash, people. Sometimes when I come here I bring a garbage bag to tidy up.
It's not the first time I've seen a car drug through the woods and unceremoniously set on fire. Left in a mire, no direction home from here. Every now and then, someone decides to push the off-road limits of their on-road vehicle. They say you won't know till you try, but plenty of people have discovered that you only get one shot. Something shatters and grinds to a halt, some permanent fault, someone really drove this car into the ground. Nature grows around it like nothing ever happened, and the patch of dirt gets a little added iron oxide (and other assorted chemicals).

A few outcrops of slate from previous quarrying activity on Birnam Hill. The Highland Boundary Fault runs a hundred yards to the right of this shot, emerging in the middle distance and turning right at the foothills of the distant hills.
Aerial photograph of Biskra Palms Oasis and the Mission Creek Strand of the San Andreas Fault (in this view the fault is hard to see, but is marked by the lowest palm trees), Indio Hills, Riverside County, California. Included in this view to the east are Indio Hill (upper left, with radio and cell-phone towers) and the Little San Bernardino Mountains (in the distance).
Not really happy with this, not through any fault of the phone/camera: I opened and edited this on my tablet yesterday and the tablet froze. It's now working again and I was able to get the image I'd saved across to my PC to upload here, except it looked very different - even worse....
This, therefore, is a Photoshop edit; it's a RAW file (DNG format). I use DNG files frequently as my version of Photoshop is old and can't open RAW files from either my Canon or Nikon cameras, so I convert them (to DNG) using Adobe DNG Converter - which gives those files a slight magenta cast. I'll try uploading to Flickr from my tablet to see if that helps as I like Snapseed and want to use it with the pics I take using the phone. Or I may have a tantrum and decide it's all too much trouble...
The solution, really, is to bite the bullet and upgrade my PC which I need to do anyway, then either get a new version of Photoshop (probably not as I don't like the pricing policy) or one of the alternatives. Bah.
