"You did the right thing
covered your scars
challenge your faith and close your eyes driving cars
for all that they knew, you were safe home
But you went trough hell whenever you were left alone
And you could see where I had been
from the pictures that they took
I tried to look positive of things
Face myself but didn't look"
There are several things to say about my April's reflections. But, I just found something to say better than I can do by myself. I hope you enjoy!
Há tanto o que ser dito sobre minhas reflexões de abril. Mas, eu encontrei algo que possa dizer bem melhor do que eu poderia fazer com minhas próprias palavras. Espero que gostem.
Tenham um ótimo final de semana!
I wish you all an amazing weekend!
Obrigado!!!

Tower height: 60,2m.Height to ceiling 26,13m. Length of Church 52,27m.
Both externally and internally,the Church is adorned with roses cut and carved by hand,which is why it is called "The Church of Roses".The are more than 1,000 roses in the Church.
23-february-2020: beyond this limit, behind me, you can only go accompanied and adequately equipped, but that's enough for me, definitely loving the world above...

I love palm fronds.
Unrelated aside.
This weekend is Super Bowl Sunday here in the US.
Go Broncs.
And we're set up for our annual toxic feast of pizza and chicken wings.
My sis in law isn't so interested, but I really enjoy watching it with my brother. He fills me in on all that I don't understand.
So I also love the always illuminating post game interviews with the players as to what they did/didn't do and why they won/lost.
This is the best...... ;-)

Happy Weekend to all.
Aston Martin DB7 in Joe's Garage
History:
The DB7, known internally as the XX project, was made mostly with resources from Jaguar Cars and had the financial backing of the Ford Motor Company, owner of Aston Martin from 1988 to 2007. The DB7's platform is an evolution of the Jaguar XJS platform, though with many changes.
The DB7 began life as a successor to the Jaguar XJS envisioned by Tom Walkinshaw of TWR. Walkinshaw had been impressed by the XJS' potential after driving it in the European Touring Car Championship in the late 1970s and early 1980s and wanted to re-body the car so it would have more modern styling. He initially wanted to engage Peter Stevens to design such a car but he refused due to his on going projects as the time. Walkinshaw then engaged Ian Callum, who was new in the car design work at the time, to design the car.
Jaguar had been struggling to replace the XJS due to its weak financial position. A project codenamed the XJ41/42 (41 for the coupé, 42 for the convertible) was already in development stage in the company, mooted to be called the F-Type when completed and was designed by Keith Helfet. When American automobile manufacturer Ford acquired both Jaguar and Aston Martin, the new management cancelled the XJ41/42 project in 1990 because of the car's heavier weight than the XJS, the project's high budget and also the employee overtime spent on the car. Seeing the potential of the abandoned project, Walkinshaw based his concept on the XJ41 and tasked Ian Callum to design his envisioned body around the XJ41. He presented the completed car to Jaguar's management who rejected it.
Due to the development of the Jaguar XJ220, Ford had not been very keen on development of new Aston Martin models due to high development costs and the wake of the 1990s economic downturn. Aston Martin CEO at the time, Walter Hayes approached Walkinshaw as he had seen the potential in Walkinshaw's proposition to succeed. Development started with a project name of XX. Ian Callum was again tasked to redesign the car so it would look like an Aston Martin. Due to a limited financial backing at the time, the final product shared many components from other marques owned by Ford. The tail lights came from the Mazda 323 F, the Chrome door handles came from the Mazda 323 Estate, the turn signals came from the Mazda MX-5 and the interior door mirror switches came from the Ford Scorpio. The only foreign component would be the wing mirrors which were shared with the Citroën CX. The whole project cost US$30 million.
On 1 January 1993, Jac Nasser was appointed the new chairman of Ford Europe. He presented the finished car, which had yet to be named, to the general public at the 1993 Geneva Motor Show. Due to the positive and overwhelming reception, the car was put into production as the Aston Martin DB7
Wiki
Campiglia marittima, that is of the Maremma (in Latin Maritima), a medieval town considered one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, was already inhabited in the Etruscan and Roman times due to the wealth of minerals in the area. The first official document mentioning Campiglia dates back to 1004.
It is today considered one of the most beautiful villages in Italy.
(Pedionomus torquatus)
Somewhere 70km North of Deniliquin - NSW
Austrália
When we were planning our trip and looking for interesting places and species to photograph in/around Victoria, we came across this amazing but endangered bird. From that moment, we couldn’t wait to have the oportunity to get some shots of it!
However, when we contacted Patricia Maher in late April, we found out that Philip Maher’s available dates were super limited. Since we’d already booked our internal flights, it didn’t seem doable at first. But we’d left our last day in Melbourne free, partly to avoid the risk of delayed or canceled flights and partly to enjoy the city a bit before heading back home on the 26th.
That gave us a whole day (the 25th) to go for this bird! We booked two nights in Deniliquin and braced ourselves for a birding marathon starting at 6:30 AM and possibly ending at 2 AM on the 26th (luckily, our flight home from Melbourne wasn’t until 3 PM).
Two days before the big day, we got in touch with Patricia again, and she told us the weather forecast wasn’t looking great – rain was expected. But hey, plans are plans.
The day before, we drove from Melbourne to Deniliquin (a 3-hour, 270km drive) under nonstop rain. By this point, we were beyond exhausted: after 4 weeks of birding (our longest trip ever!), dealing with an 11-hour time difference, staying in 12 different accommodations, catching 5 internal flights and 3 international ones, eating food very different from what we were used to (and often skipping meals), waking up most days at 5 AM, we almost decided to turn back.
Plus, we already had a decent collection of photos on our hard drives. Honestly, all we wanted was to head back to Melbourne, relax, and enjoy the photos we’d taken.
The idea of driving in the rain for what might turn out to be a wasted effort wasn’t motivating at all. We were this close to turning around and heading back.
Thank goodness we didn’t! Not only did the rain ease up the next day, but we also managed to spot more than 40 new species – including both the male and female of this gorgeous bird. We got hundreds of photos from all the angles and distances we wanted! The female wasn’t super cooperative (she didn’t show off her pretty legs), but the male was a real show-off and a photographer’s dream. I’ll share his photos later too.
Note 1: This is the female of the species. She’s actually more colorful than the male, though some individuals are even more vibrant than this one.
Note 2: Nope, she’s not in the nest. Fun fact about this species: it’s the male that incubates the eggs and raises the chicks. The female focuses on defending her territory and mates with multiple males.
==================***==================
All my photos are now organized into sets by the country where they were taken, by taxonomic order, by family, by species (often with just one photo for the rarer ones), and by the date they were taken.
So, you may find:
- All the photos for this trip Austrália (2024) (309)
- All the photos for this order CHARADRIIFORMES (1170)
- All the photos for this family Pedionomidae (Pedionomídeos) (4)
- All the photos for this species Pedionomus torquatus (4)
- All the photos taken this day 2024/11/25 (30)

Hello dear visitors,
In this exhibition, I invite you to experience the concept of "consciousness" through photographs. Let's discuss and debate the sum of our experiences, feelings, and awareness, and together question our intellectual and emotional processes as we oscillate between boredom and passing the time.
Throughout the flow of photographs, I hope that internal and external stimuli, along with some symbolic elements, will invite you to reflect on what motivates you in your consciousness during a spontaneous day.
I hope you have a pleasant time, keeping in mind the idea that the artist is the embodiment of "consciousness," deeply feeling all the pain of life and returning the surreal universes they create to art lovers through a work of art.

Not too happy with how this turned out but what did I expect from a quick build and mismatched fugue parts? Oh well I suppose it isn't too bad
God, hear me!
They told me you didn't exist, and I trusted them like a jerk.
But last night, in the garnet hole, I saw your heaven.
Suddenly, I realized they were lying to me.
If I tried to take a good look
on the things you created,
I'd understand right away that those
they denied that the cat is cat.
It's strange that I had to
get to this hell,
so I can have time to see your face
I like you so much...
That's what I wanted you to know.
There's going to be a terrible battle coming up.
Who knows?
Maybe I'll come to your place tonight.
We weren't good friends,
And I'm asking, my God,
will you be waiting for me at the door?
Look, this is how I cry!
I'm the one who's here going to start whining!
If only I'd known you sooner...
let's go! We have to go now!
It's ridiculous:
When I met you,
I'm not afraid to die anymore.
goodbye!

Some fiddling about in lightroom to bring the reflection up to be brighter than the subject. Use a graduated filter increasing exposure to do this and finish off with a brightening/positive vignette

Off for the weekend, but the sunny days of spring will be hidden behind clouds and rain. This isn't a bad thing. The weekend is mostly for photographing cemeteries on X-ray film. Some lovely dark clouds will help with the sky.
I'm going for (and counting upon) the dark and brooding. Hopefully.
They're calling for rain, but it likely won't be enough to stop me from shooting. Same with the wind. It won't be a gale, but beautiful still lifes of wildflowers are probably out of the question.
I hope to return with some pictures for you to see and many you never will.
