This section of Iguazu Falls is known as Devil's Throat. It is most easily seen/accessible from the Argentine side of the falls via a 1200-yard footbridge after getting off of the Jungle Train at Devil's Throat Station. I took this photo from the balcony at the end of the footbridge. The rushing water of the falls is so loud on the balcony that you almost can't hear anything else, and I got very wet from the misty overspray created by the falls. On the footbridge while walking to and from the falls we saw lots of animals and birds including Coatis and Plush Crested Jays.
Quote of the Day:
"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing." (Helen Keller)

Walter Cronkite, one of America's leading news reporters and journalist, died two days ago at the age of 92. He was the man who told America President John F. Kennedy had died, and informed us of so many important events in our history. Like so many other Americans growing up in the 1950s and 1960s, he was to me America's most trusted man. Walter Cronkite was a role model to so many and he will be greatly missed by the world.
This photo is from Marado [Mara Island]. Marado represents the southernmost point in South Korean territory. The island is about 30km from the southern port of Jeju and the trip by ferry took about 15-20 minutes. The island is comparatively small (approximately 0.3 square kilometers) and you can walk around its entirety at a leisurely pace in about 90 minutes. Marado is home to about 90 residents and "…has long been known for its population being composed of strong women and docile men." (Wiki). While there, we saw traditional "haenyeo" women divers actively working at their trade of free diving to gather seafood.
Blundell Street, Foxhall, Blackpool ▪️Janine di Giovanni: "I've reported 18 wars over 35 years.
I've been shot at, kidnapped, threatened, nearly raped. I've lost friends from Sarajevo to Syria. I thought l'd seen the worst of humanity. I was wrong. Nothing compares to Gaza — or the complicity letting it happen."
While traveling in Cambodia in January 2017 I spent some time photographing the area of Siem Reap and the historic Angkor Wat temples. One morning as I was entering a main building at Angkor Wat I encountered these novice monks whiling the time at a southwest portal of the building. The stark color contrast between the dark building and the monks' habit quickly caught my eye.

In honor of Alex Pretti, Registered Nurse. Mr. Pretti was protesting in Minneapolis and was ganged up on by 5 or more ice agents. They eventually shot him and he died from his wounds. How can journalism remain neutral in these times?

Citizen journalism is needed when large swaths of mainstream media pledge craven fealty to a fascist regime.

⚑ "No Kings protests took place on October 18, 2025, as part of a series of demonstrations against Donald Trump's policies and actions during his second presidency. The demonstrations, which followed the June 2025 No Kings protests, took place in some 2,700 locations across the country, including the National Mall in Washington, D.C., Chicago, New York City, [and Atlanta].
Approximately 200 organizations collaborated to coordinate the October protests, which drew nearly 7 million participants nationwide, marking it as one of the largest single-day demonstrations in American history."

College Green, Bristol, England, United Kingdom, on Saturday 26th April 2025.
About this photographs.
This photograph was taken at the junction of College Green and Anchor Road, opposite the Bristol Marriott Royal Hotel.
This dude was just sitting on what appears to be a bench of some sort, in front of a shop, and using his smartphone. At that time, many transgenders had started a protest, and started marching towards city centre, they were going past his guy.
I thought to try a street photography kind of candid capture by taking a photo, while the protesters were still in this street.
It was originally shot in colour, but during Adobe Lightroom, I decided to convert it into black and white for the good old fashion classic photography looks.
After taking a few photos of this guy, I keep up with the marching protesters towards the city centre.
You are welcome to comment about the subject in my photo, of the photo itself, or of your relevant experience.

Toronto, March 7, 2017 - In the lead up to International Women’s Day, we tackle online harassment against women in media. Manisha Krishnan, senior writer for VICE Canada; Heather Mallick, columnist with the Toronto Star; and Janet McFarland, business reporter with The Globe and Mail, discuss the hazards of being a female journalist online and the policies and resources that can help make newsrooms and online communities welcoming to all. This discussion was moderated by Piya Chattopadhyay, host of CBC Radio’s Out in the Open.

Caught this young woman on the fly, and didn't notice until I got home that it was a mullet she was wearing. Actually, I thought it looked better on her then on some guys.
I wonderee if she changes the two "billboards" on either side of her head. You know, this is a Pride them with all those hearts and colors. Does she do seasonal themes? Christmas, Halloween, 4th of July?
If I ever went over the edge and got a mullet, I would have nautical scenes . . . seascapes, sailboats with full spinnakers flying. Maybe on Christmas a Creche' scene. Lent could present a problem if I went with the liturgical calendar.
Just musings of course. I am also posting a monochrome of this young lady. I thought it looked pretty good. What's the verdict.
The head and white glasses in the corner of the pic are a style of mine. They were a pain to get just right in the darkroom. So much easier in digital.
So much of street photography on the fly incorporates "gremlins" we overlooked creeping into the pic. Rather than trashing the whole photo for those things I can't remove, I see how I can contributed to the narrative by incorporating it in some way . . . sometime it works . . . sometimes not.

Today's wars are fought with disinformation as well as with physical weapons. The first line of defense is journalism. My own Ukraine cash donations are going to RSF - Reporters sans frontières/Reporters Without Borders. If you agree and are able to help, please donate: donate.rsf.org/b/my-donation?cid=32&_cv=1
Here's one story, sent to its members by RSF today, about why it matters. Warning: it's gruesome. But so is war, and if this gives offense, don't read it.
Fixer tortured for 9 days by Russian soldiers in Ukraine
“Tortured with a knife and electric shocks, beaten repeatedly with rifle butts in the face and body, subjected to a mock execution, and left without food for 48 hours... ... Reporters Without Borders (RSF) has revealed the shocking story of a 32-year-old Radio France fixer and interpreter who was kidnapped and tortured by Russian soldiers in a village in central Ukraine. Nine days of horror that confirm the intensity of the war crimes being committed by the Russia army against journalists.
WARNING: THIS TESTIMONY CONTAINS SOME DETAILS WHICH COULD OFFEND SOME PEOPLE
“On 5 March, Nikita was ambushed by a Russian reconnaissance unit on the edge of a roadside forest while driving with a “Press” sign displayed on the front of the car. He recounts his car was hit by between 30 and 40 shots fired with automatic weapons. After the soldiers took him to a house, he told them he was a fixer and interpreter for foreign journalists, but they hit him repeatedly with automatic rifle butts, in the face and body. Nikita felt pieces of teeth in his mouth and coughed up blood. The soldiers threw him into a ditch, beside a dead dog, and subjected him to a mock execution. A soldier pretended that he wanted to check that his gun was working and fired a shot that grazed Nikita's head. The soldiers then took him to their camp in the forest about ten minutes' walk away. They tied him to a tree, stole his wedding ring, and removed his shoes. That afternoon, the soldiers beat him again with rifle butts and steel bars on his legs. He lost consciousness several times.... mailchi.mp/rsf.org/fixer-tortured-by-russian-soldiers?e=7...
Grab your wetsuit, spit into your mask, and come along with me as I explore the otherworldly Belize Barrier Reef with my friends from Blackbird Caye Resort and PADI. Belize is one of the world’s most remarkable dive destinations, home to pristine coral reef systems, some of the blue planet’s most remarkable marine life, and the Great Blue Hole. The Turneffe Atoll also happens to be the finest place on earth to learn to dive, and a true showcase of what it really means to travel deeper.
