Time flies. Unbelieveable that it's been six years since you have gone. I will never forget you. You will always be in my heart and in my thoughts...

A number of years ago my wife and I had Afternoon Tea at the Lodge on Loch Lomond ... that's the buildings that are along the coastline of Loch Lomond!
My wife decided we would return for Afternoon Tea and therefore made a booking but this time including her sister! It was absolutely wonderful and brought lovely memories back to us!
Thank you, darling 😘

Memory tree stands at the exit of extinct extension.
The ocean takes a drop from here.
Steeply, to a depth of Hundreds of Meters.
The tree stands, awkwardly, marking this transition point.
The tree marks the limit, this island can be extended (grown) with reclamation.
The outer edge of reef.
The lagoon, (earlier this used to be!) together with reef, provides safety, and protects the island from many external forces.
When people intervene with nature, things start to go wrong.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When people started migrating, en-mass, into this island, many things started to happen. Some wrong. Some very, very wrong.
Overcrowding and congestion led to many environmentally and socially unfriendly activities.
Houses spurted quickly, on beaches. Lagoons became the next beach.
Houses spurted quickly, on beaches. Lagoons became the next beach.
Houses. More houses...
Until finally the protective lagoon gave up.
Houses filled up every imaginable inch and space.

Vulnerable.
One fine morning, in 1987?, A storm of tidal waves rammed the coastal areas and flooded the Capital island.
It caused massive losses to land and property, opening wide concerns of the environmental sustainability of the island.
The stupid actions of people cannot be reversed.
The island cannot go back to its former glory days.
A huge publicity campaign followed.
The disturbing pictures of this beautiful tropical paradise island faced with immediate extinction brought in sympathies from all over.
Hence, this 'temporary' 180 Million Dollar solution.
A kind donation by the Japanese.
The seawall around the Capital.
(Story coming.)

Fact: In a period of 15 years, the Capital island of Male' has grown

This flower was taken at the Melbourne botanical gardens. Back in high school, I spent a lot of time here. It is full of memories....
From a wonderful coffee shop called Black Coffee Pharmacy on Bonner Talweg. A great vibe and fabulous latte!
It’s hard to believe it’s already been a year since our unforgettable trip to Costa Rica. This photo was taken around the same moment as the original Memory Branch. Witnessing the mother sloth with her young in Guápiles was a dream come true, and this angle highlights their incredible bond amidst the vibrant greenery. Thank you very much for getting Memory Branch in Explore—it means so much to me! 🌿✨
South Shore Freight 805-804 switch Burnham Yard with friend Mike Polk as Engineer. Have many shots here of the South Shore's 700 and 800 class motors doing the same thing. Lots of good memories.
Just a play on words, see the bag in the centre . The run up to Christmas is often tough on children they are inundated with weeks and weeks of talk of the big day. The child was probably having a five- min wobble.
What drew me to the shot was the lady in the middle with the Panama bag . She appears to be supporting her Mother and Son and can be forgiven if just for a moment she is dreaming of being elsewhere!
I liked the shot as it appears to tell a story it may not be the story I tell of course!
I had a flashback into my youth, when all the SBB trains in second class had these seats in green (non smoker) and red (smoker). The plastic cover was certainly easy to clean, but sitting there in the summer heat was a pain.
On this day the car was used for the shuttle from Olten to Olten Depot.
It snowed today in ottawa the first copious amounts that can be seen to last through the morning. The sunsets early, bringing back the memories of summer with late hour sunsets at the beach

A Pome:

Lies become reality if you insist on them chronic,
Its a question of persistence
To sustain the subterfuge,
Stroll on.
I've been coming to this spot since at least 2012, and shooting around 5 Points. The same spot, looking for new ways to photograph it with new faces in tow. Those faces become familiar, and then the challenge goes up a notch: same spot with someone you know a little better. The cycle continues, and either you give up because everything looks the same, or you never stop looking for what you've missed.
I've lived in the same city my whole life, and I'm probably stuck here forever. But I just met Zoe for the first time last month, and I've never taken a photo this way in this spot. I wasn't a photographer 6 and a half years ago, and I didn't shoot in 5 points until 5 years ago. Things seem stagnant and static when you've spent a lot of time in the same spot, but that doesn't mean they are.
