how he came to be
Sat channel hopping last night when I came across a programme about cats in the womb. The programme compared domestic felines and lions. It was most interesting and Kaiser was fascinated to learn how he had been born

I was working on two of my photographic projects, then Carnival arrived, I put aside what I had done up until then, and so I created this group of photographs; they are shots taken during the Carnival which took place in Taormina center (Taormina alta) and in Trappitello (fraction of Taormina, the plain part of Taormina, located towards the hinterland; there is also Taormina seaside, but this part is not was affected by the Carnival). Carnival, from a photographic point of view, has always interested me not for its allegorical floats, not for its beautiful or refined masks, but for the people who find themselves "behind the masks", for their emotions, the their ability to have fun, to uninhibit themselves, even in front of the camera. I photographed a detail of the float dedicated to the mayor of Taormina, Cateno De Luca, I photographed boys and girls from the masked groups who paraded through the city streets, as well as boys and girls not belonging to any group, who had fun with clothes invented for the 'occasion; despite having placed heterogeneous photographs, I mostly followed a theme that refers to a work by Andy Warhol, an iconic figure of Pop Art as well as being one of the most important artists of the 20th century, ideally linking myself for its creation to the allegorical float of Pop Art of Taormina.
I conclude, I dedicate this work to the flicker-friend White Angel, hoping to please her.

Stavo lavorando a due miei progetti fotografici, poi è arrivato il Carnevale, ho messo da parte quanto avevo fino ad allora fatto, ed ho così realizzato questo gruppo di fotografie; sono scatti realizzati durante il Carnevale che si è svolto a Taormina centro (Taormina alta) ed a Trappitello (frazione di Taormina, la parte in pianura di Taormina, sita verso l’entroterra; c’è anche Taormina mare, ma questa parte non è stata interessata dal Carnevale). Il Carnevale, dal punto di vista fotografico, mi ha sempre interessato non per i suoi carri allegorici, non per le sue maschere belle o ricercate che siano, ma per le persone che si trovano “dietro le maschere”, per le loro emozioni, la loro capacità di divertirsi, di disinibirsi, anche davanti la macchina fotografica. Ho fotografato un dettaglio del carro dedicato al sindaco di Taormina, Cateno De Luca, ho fotografato ragazzi e ragazze dei gruppi in maschera che sfilavano per le vie cittadine, come ragazzi e ragazze non appartenenti a nessun gruppo, che si divertivano con vestiti inventati per l’occasione; pur avendo messo fotografie eterogenee, ho seguito maggiormente un tema che fa riferimento ad un lavoro di Andy Warhol, figura iconica della Pop Art oltre che essere uno dei più importanti artisti del XX secolo, agganciandomi idealmente per la sua realizzazione, al carro allegorico della Pop Art di Taormina.
Concludo, dedico questo lavoro alla flicker-friend White Angel, sperando di farle cosa gradita.

Mid Orange Correctional Facility
Warwick, New York
August 2023
Location History
At the foothills of the beautiful Ramapo mountains in New York, lies the sleepy village of Warwick.
The outskirts of Warwick give way to deep woods which lead toward Wickham lake.
Sitting on the banks of Wickham lake, is a 740-acre complex of foreboding buildings.
Get ready to serve some time at the dark and daunting Mid-Orange Correctional Facility!
New York’s State Training School for Boys officially opened on July 1, 1932 with 200 boys already on site, and many buildings that wouldn’t be completed until 1934. Prior to opening, the location also served as the first in-patient substance abuse facility in the United States.
Housing an average of 400 boys, most between the ages of 13 and 15, this facility provided endangered youths an opportunity to work in the kitchen, maintenance, groundskeeping, on the farm, and to learn a variety of vocational and technical programs.
In The 1950’s Richard Biegenwald spent time in the facility as a teenager, eventually being released and committing the serial murders of at least 9 until his capture in 1983.
The 1960’s saw teenagers as old as 20 lying about their age to avoid prison. Also, within the facility came the rise of escapes, abuse, gangs, pimps, and violence.
On March 30, 1962, 15-year-old Charles McBride was sent to the facility and house in Cottage B-1. On October 23, 1962, Charles McBride was beaten in the bathroom by the husband of a cottage wife. A short time later, McBride was reported as hanging from a sheet and bedspread tied over the rafter above his bed. The man that had beaten McBride loosened the knot of the makeshift noose, resulting in McBride falling to the floor and hitting his head, which became the official cause of death.
In 1976, the State Training School for Boys was renamed Mid-Orange Correctional Facility and began a conversion to become an adult male prison. By this time, many of the boys were repeat offenders who would escape or attempt to commit other crimes. The first adult male inmates arrived on June 29, 1977.
In 1979, all guards at the facility walked out, which resulted in the National Guard being sent to lock them out of their homes on the grounds.
By 1984, the AIDS epidemic resulted in nearly 5% of Inmates at Mid-Orange Correctional Facility contracting the disease and being isolated in the infirmary to die.
While the typical number of inmates held at Mid-Orange Correctional Facility was around 750, the population grew to over 1,000 by 1989.
In June 2011, Mid-Orange Correctional Facility closed along with six other state prisons in an effort at consolidation.
The town of Warwick and the Warwick Valley Local Development Corporation took ownership of the property in 2014.
Between 2015 and 2018, areas of the property became known as Hudson Sports Complex, a town park known as Wickham Woodlands, and a brewery named Drowned Lands Brewery. These changes were made or continued under the ownership of Christian and Raluca Fuchs, who acquired the property in November of 2018.
Containing areas with adaptive sports for those with disabilities, Hudson Sports Complex opened in January 2019. The Drowned Lands Brewery began operations in the spring of 2020
learn something new every day. When I set up this shot I knew my tripod would be in the water. I hadn't really thought about how the water would make the tripod sink in the sand... much like your feet do when you stand in sand with the outgoing water. If you look closely to the right of the far right rock you can see the ghost of how the camera moved during exposure.
Exposure 38.6 seconds
Aperture f/22.0

My co-worker he just came here 1 month ago, (cors,he came from Phil English is our second language )
He spoke well in English and don't need to to go school.. :) even my dog can speak well...lol My frn. got married with Asian lady (One time I tried to talk to her..and all she said to me is.....NO ENGLISH ..what?? Ur' husband is American, & how in the world u guys understand each other. :) if u don't speak English.:(
If there's one bit of simple advice I can give, today, it is this: LEARN TO SAY 'NO'. Say it to the things and people that make you uncomfortable. Listen to your instincts and know when enough is enough for you and the ride is no longer fun or something you'll regret later. There's no shame in walking away. You don't even have to explain yourself.
Say it with me... NO.

Zabriskie Point
The popular vista was built by the Pacific Coast Borax Company in the 1920s and was named after the company's vice president and general manager, Christian Zabriskie. The site was originally intended as a waystop for visitors in automobiles to see Manly Beacon, the prominent landmark in Death Valley's "Badlands". It remains as one of the most visited areas within the park.
Due to prevalent fall and winter precipitation in the park, wildflowers are abundant on alluvial fans and in swales and gulleys across the park landscape.
See dramatic badlands from two vantage points
Every imaginable shade of gold--from orange to apricot to school-bus yellow--is visible in the wrinkled Golden Canyon cliffs, whose folded and eroded layers glow at sunrise and sunset. Pick your favourite perspective: Drive to Zabriskie Point and survey the scene from on high, or see the vibrant beauty up close by hiking in Golden Canyon. For casual sightseers, Zabriskie Point (off Hwy. 190) offers a stunning view of the multi-hued badlands from a 100-yard-long paved trail.
"It’s one of the park’s most photographed viewpoints and a busy spot at sunset."
It’s one of the park’s most photographed viewpoints and a busy spot at sunset. The Golden Canyon hike starts from the opposite side (off Badwater Road, 3.5 miles/5.6 km southeast of the visitor center). It’s a moderate out-and-back of about two miles, which can be extended into 5.5-mile/9-km loop. From the parking area, the trail heads gently uphill through soft canyon walls colourfully banded in yellow, beige, and cream, which signifies the presence of different minerals. Be sure to go the extra few steps to Red Cathedral, a towering cliff coloured red by the weathering of iron-rich rocks.

The largest national park south of Alaska, Death Valley is known for extremes: It is North America's driest and hottest spot (with fewer than two inches/five centimeters of rainfall annually and a record high of 134°F), and has the lowest elevation on the continent—282 feet below sea level. Even with its extremes, the park still receives nearly a million visitors each year.
In 1849 emigrants bound for California's gold fields strayed into the 120-mile long basin, enduring a two-month ordeal of "hunger and thirst and an awful silence." One of the last to leave looked down from a mountain at the narrow valley and said, "Good-bye, Death Valley."
The moniker belies the beauty in this vast graben, the geological term for a sunken fragment of the Earth's crust. Here are rocks sculptured by erosion, richly tinted mudstone hills and canyons, luminous sand dunes, lush oases, and a 200-square-mile salt pan surrounded by mountains, one of America's greatest vertical rises. In some years spring rains trigger wildflower blooms amid more than a thousand varieties of plants.
Native Americans, most recently the Shoshone, found ways to adapt to the more recent and forbidding desert conditions that exist here now. Rock art and artifacts indicate a human presence dating back at least 9,000 years.
From 1883 to 1889, wagon teams hauled powdery white borax from mines since fallen to ruin, an enterprise that spread word of Death Valley's striking landscapes, deep solitude, and crystalline air.
As night falls, Death Valley's elusive populations of bobcats, kit foxes, and rodents venture out. Far above on steep mountain slopes, desert bighorn sheep forage among Joshua trees, scrubby junipers, and pines, while hawks soar on thermals rising into vivid blue, cloudless skies.
Did You Know?
The highest mountain in the park, 11,049-foot Telescope Peak, lies only 15 miles from Badwater Basin, the lowest point in the U.S. The vertical drop from the peak to Badwater Basin is twice the depth of the Grand Canyon.
Named by gold prospectors struggling through the area in 1849, Death Valley has been inhabited by Timbisha Shoshone Native Americans; gold prospectors, including slaves; Chinese immigrants mining for silver and borax; Basque immigrants who settled here at the turn of the 20th century; and Japanese Americans temporarily interned here during World War II.

FOR THE CHILDREN
The rising hills, the slopes,
of statistics
lie before us.
the steep climb
of everything, going up,
up, as we all
go down.
In the next century
or the one beyond that,
they say,
are valleys, pastures,
we can meet there in peace
if we make it.
To climb these coming crests
one word to you, to
you and your children:
stay together
learn the flowers
go light
