Lamb's Ear Spike - My fuzzy logic convinced me this was a perfectly straight shot while I was taking this
Problema logico de puertas, portones, cancelas, verjas o rejas.
Un reo está preso en una celda con dos portones. Uno lleva a la salvación y el otro a la muerte. Cada uno de ellos lo custodia un celador. El preso sabe que uno de los vigilantes siempre dice la verdad y el otro siempre miente. No sabe quién de los dos tiene cada caracteristica.
Para elegir la reja por la que pasará, sólo puede hacer una pregunta a uno solo de los guardianes.
¿Cuál es esa pregunta? y ¿A quien debe hacérsela?
Another of the regular cargo carriers at East Midlands Airport; AeroLogic is a little more intriguing in being a 50/50 joint-venture between DHL Express and Lufthansa Cargo, with their hubs at the respective carriers bases being at Leipzig-Halle and Frankfurt-Main respectively. Founded back in 2007, the carrier started operating their own flights back in 2009 when it took delivery of their first Boeing 777F, and its the only aircraft type in its fleet.
The operations of AeroLogic is also interesting; the carrier operates from 5 airports in Europe, although on weekdays the majority of their flights operate to Asia on behalf of DHL Express, whilst weekends sees flights diverging across the Atlantic Ocean to the United States where they are operated on behalf of Lufthansa Cargo.
Due to the unique nature of AeroLogic, the carrier's Boeing 777F fleet operate either in their mostly Eurowhite livery incorporating a grey underbelly, or they are in DHL's more striking yellow and red livery.
One of the 5 airports in Europe that AeroLogic operates from is East Midlands Airport, considering it is a major hub for DHL and its subsidiaries... The carrier for the S22 season operates 5 weekly flights all originating to and from Leipzig-Halle. 3S192/193 operates Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday whilst 3S194/195 operates Saturday only.
Currently, AeroLogic operates 20 Boeing 777s, all of which are Boeing 777F. AeroLogic have 6 more Boeing 777Fs on-order, one second-hand example and 5 brand new.
Alpha Alpha Lima Golf is one of 20 Boeing 777Fs operated by AeroLogic, delivered new to the carrier initially on lease from Deucalion Aviation Funds on 24th September 2010, now leased from BBAM since September 2011 and she is powered by 2 General Electric GE90-110B1 engines.

Had a few hours after dark this evening and a decent astronomical forecast, so I popped down to Gooseberry Island in Westport, MA to see if I could do something with the Milky Way. I had hoped to shoot at the nearby Horseback Beach, but I couldn't find a decent place to leave the car while I shot, at least not in the time I had. This is the Milky Way over the island tonight, looking down the causeway to the island.

(I hit a snafu with my uploading of photos from my vacation – the logic board on my laptop died. Drive and backups are fine, but until I get everything migrated to the new laptop that effort is paused for a few days.)
Aprovecho esta foto para comentaros que ya hemos terminado la 2ª etapa en la itinerancia de la expo de El Factor Humano pero que seguimos.
El próximo martes, día 2 de marzo, a las 20H. en la Biblioteca Can Peixauet de Santa Coloma de Gremente inauguraremos la 3ª etapa.
Ya está prácticamente listo todo y queda una sala muy guapa
Me hubiera gustado subir aquí la entrevista que nos hicieron en Radio Sant Boi, pero al no admitir Flickr un video superior a 90" hemos editado este resumen

The Kreiterhof* has an amazing, sprawling display of miscellaneous things in "indefinite long-term outdoor storage." Mostly, the arrangements seems to be "helter-skelter, I'm in a hurry."😎
But here, it appears that someone employed "circular logic":
a wagon wheel, a coil of wire, and a roll of metal strip, placed together in an relatively eye-pleasing display.😎
* The Kreiterhof (see location below) is an amazing, amusing 200+ year-old rural establishment. Visitors are welcome from spring through autumn. You can go for a drink or a casual, simple outdoor meal. Before or after, you can wander around and take photos of a mind-boggling accumulation of objects, materials and devices that are in "indefinite long-term outdoor-storage."
Location: Kreiterhof, near the Village of Nebenau, District of Lörrach, Baden-Württemberg DE.

"How cold can it get going from the car into the building where the dentist office is? I know it is 20 degrees but shouldn't be that bad. It is a short walk...right?"
Truth: It IS that bad and worse. It is not a short walk, it is a trek thru an Antarctica parking lot in midday. Lucky they did not find a frozen girl preserved in mid-step, for the ice age.
Allow love to triumph over logic.
There will always be a good reason to keep doing what you are doing or to withhold your forgiveness from someone else.
But the real issue is whether or not you love them enough to go beyond that logic.
Ever Logic dusk arrival, pushing it here for lighting of a moving vessel, about three shots from 30-40 were usable with the long lens.

Spent over an hour on this one editing in photoshop CS5. Gave content aware a major workout cleaning up the ground and walls to isolate the main things of this picture. No offense to anyone that I buffed out of the shot.
I saw this young fan at the opening game of my local football team. The expression on his face told me he already knew how the game would end (1:4).
All sing along "Rikki don't loose that number"...
I recently had a fellow photographer imply to me that it was a photographer's job to photograph what they saw, not what they imagined. He went on to argue that if a photographer were to employ their imagination in creating an image they should be upfront with their audience and tell them the photo was not...... what? Real? Honest? He said true. For him apparently imagination and truth cannot co-exist. Like they are opposites at the end of a spectrum. I could see where he was coming from and from what I could discern his background was in photojournalism which tends to adopt a much more conservative attitude toward photography (to both good and bad effect). Despite that, I still could not agree with him. I don't think I could ever agree with that notion. It would be like saying the coast shouldn't be windy. What a narrow world that would be to live in.
But I think it is a misleading argument to even debate truth in photography. I don't think a truth necessarily exists in the world of photography, or rather perhaps I should say each image made is an individual photographer's own truth. So if every photo is true (at least to them) then at the same time none of them are. Because what is true for you is false for at least one other person. At which point you start to get a feel for the circular logic of this problem.
The solution then? Realize that the problem isn't really a problem. As soon as you let go of the belief that there is truth in photography, that it is ok to photograph not just what you saw, exactly as you saw it, but instead what you felt, wanted to feel, thought you felt, or imagined you could feel, the world becomes a much simpler place for a photographer to exist in. There is nothing wrong with imagination in photography. Quite the opposite, I would say there is a greater danger from a lack of imagination. Photographers should be creative, they should dream things up, play with the fabric of reality a bit here and there, fudge the lines or ignore them. It is how we grow. Without imagination, there would be no adventure.
But there is an aspect of truth that does come into play and that is truth in the presentation and sharing of an image. While nothing you can do to create a photo is inherently dishonest, what you do with that photo and say about it can be. Is it wrong to Photoshop an image? Of course not. Is it wrong to claim a Photoshopped image is straight from the camera? Of course it is. Is it wrong to Photoshop an image and say nothing at all and let your audience figure it out on their own? No, it isn't. In fact, this is my preference. I am not shy about manipulating images (both in camera and post) when the mood strikes me. I do it to manifest a certain thought or idea. So naturally when I present that image I am less interested in talking about what I did because that would distract from the image itself. Of course, if someone were to ask me about the what of it, I have no qualms about disclosing all the steps in the process. I have nothing to hide there, nor should any other photographer feel like they do. Photography is not a crime, right? I would say the same is true of manipulated photographs, but then again, ALL photographs are manipulated, so it goes without saying.
The aforementioned photographer's proposed solution was that Photoshopped images should be labeled in their own separate category and be called photo-collages or something like that. Such images he argued should be separated from images made entirely in a camera. The implication was that we should discriminate specifically against digital photographers using Photoshop. At least he certainly didn't offer to include darkroom wizardry in this new category otherwise we would have to start calling Ansel Adams' images photo-collages, as well as practically every other film photographer in the history of this art. Personally I find it ironic that I am mostly a film photographer and I am put (and put myself) in a position so frequently to defend the use of post-processing software and digital photography. I rarely have a class go by that some student or another asks me if I think Photoshopping images is evil (they generally go on to say they at some point had one photo instructor or another tell them that it was). Sometimes I encourage them to use Photoshop because I know how valuable a tool it can be for the imagination. Sometimes, I admit, I encourage them to freely use Photoshop just to spite the close-minded photo instructors of the world who want to force their narrow view of how things should be on their students. Shame on them. But that is a whole other essay for a whole other time.
By all means, use your imagination. As I said above, it is dangerous not to. Creativity is a skill, it gets better with practice and it atrophies with the lack of use. So, photograph with it. Exercise it. You use it or you lose it, then you grow up to be a curmudgeonly photographer who doesn't believe others should use it either. The world is a pretty vast place but it gets pretty small very fast when you limit yourself to just what you can see with two eyes.
Life in the birdcage indeed.
