Better stop dreamin' of the quiet life 'coz it's the one we'll never know
and quit runnin' for that runaway bus 'coz those rosey days are few
and stop apologizin' for things you never done
time is short and life is cruel
but it's up to us to change this town called malice........

Early morning alley in town...
Experimenting with some new BW conversion techniques which brought out the ghost writing on the wall. I can make out the word "store," I think, but nothing else. Anyone else read it?

En ce temps-là, le laitier ramassait le lait dans toutes les petites fermes.
Aujourd’hui, il n’y a plus de petites fermes et il n’y a plus de laitier ni même de fromagerie...
In this time, the milkman collected milk in all the small farms.
Today, there are no more small farms and there is no more milkman nor even of cheese factory…
PS) Le vieux Chateau est toujours là...
The old castle is still there…
The little milkman delivers…

I Hear Music
Billie Holiday
I hear music
Mighty fine music
The murmur of a morning breeze up there
The rattle of the milkman on the stair
Sure that's music
Mighty fine music
The singing of a sparrow in the sky
The perking of the coffee right near by
That's my favorite melody
You my angel, phoning me
I hear music
Mighty fine music
And anytime I think my world is wrong
I get me out of bed and sing this song

I won't talk about this mornings disaster other than saying it involved a camera with no card, another camera with barely any battery in it, a milkman doing his rounds, a smashed milk bottle and a full box of smashed eggs, -7 degrees with a wind chill of -14, Adrian firmly on his behind after stumbling on the frozen ground, a missing ribeye I'd taken out of the fridge to get to room temp and a dog with a ribeye shaped belly, no no I won't mention that at all.
So here's one from yesterday's successful bike ride!

The mist was more like a thick pea soup fog. Taken on the same day as my previous horse shot, but this was down below on the Piano Grande close to Castelluccio.
This guy comes early morning with bags of milk in his scooter and uses this shop as distribution place for the village. Shot this from my balcony.
The capture above is foil with quite a smooth surface (originally) and a lovely dullish scratched looking sheen, As you can see (from the surface) I have scoured, my hope was to give a Quilted effect.
I would have liked (for my entry) foil milk bottles tops (red/gold/green) that the milkman delivered on the doorsteps over 60 years ago but sadly I could not find them.
I did play around with a few ideas but eventually, it was the " fabric look-alike" from "FOIL" I went for.
Tonbridge Park in Kent [UK) flooded due to the Leigh flood barrier being opened to stop local homes from being flooded.
I know this area well. My family house was flooded in 1968, when I was a (Young!!!) boy. The water came up to the 5th stair in our house and the milkman came up our street in a boat!!
The Leigh Flood Barrier was built to try to stop this happening. It reduces the risk of flooding to 965 properties and 300 businesses in Tonbridge.
The daffodils were soon under water.....
Thanks for visiting......

Milk cans were originally used to store fresh milk. They were an everyday item on farms until the 1970s. After that, they were collected by a milk delivery driver and transported to the dairy.
Oorspronkelijk diende de melkbussen om verse melk te bewaren. Het was tot de jaren zeventig een alledaags voorwerp op de boerderij. Daarna werden ze door een melkrijder opgehaald om naar de zuivelfabriek te worden vervoerd.
Milchkannen dienten ursprünglich der Aufbewahrung von Frischmilch. Bis in die 1970er Jahre gehörten sie zum Alltag auf Bauernhöfen. Danach wurden sie von einem Milchlieferanten abgeholt und zur Molkerei transportiert.
Les bidons de lait servaient à l'origine à conserver le lait frais. Ils étaient un objet courant dans les fermes jusque dans les années 1970. Ensuite, ils étaient récupérés par un livreur de lait et transportés à la laiterie.

Near Stapina, Velebit, Croatia.
STAPINA (1124 m) is the biggest and the most imposing rock in South Velebit. This high smooth conical rock by its shape reminds on milkman's tool piston (stap in croatian). The fact that this huge rock, on outstanding grassy peak with nice view, is well visible from afar contributes to the beauty and attractiveness of Stapina.
Thanks to everyone for your visiting, favs & comments :).

On Howrah Bridge , a milkman taking rest after a very hot & humid days work. At distant , very dim Lights of Second Howrah Bridge is visible over the dark river Ganges. Glimpse of Bright light at left is of Eden Gardens Stadium. And the illuminated large building at right is Howrah Station.
Howrah Bridge was less crowded on Sunday Evening , on week day there is always massive crowd and images like this can't be framed.
Could be captured with at least one stop less ISO & Shutter Speed. That is my mistake in haste.

Clara and one of her small ones, I think her name was Tzeitel! :-)
(Like one of the daughters from Tevye the milkman.)
I love old pines....the smell, the forest floor they contribute to - the warmth and softness.... tiny canopy gaps where stars poke through high above in the darkest hours- they're home, a safe place even when all around is dark a place I can just fade into ♥
I even chose the pine forest by my childhood home to bunk off school - a good book and a pack of fags, few club bars (mint has always been my preference) better than all that school socialising and I hated English - 2 doubles on a Wednesday.
We camped as teenagers by the river on the soft floor though I definitely remember cold toes but so happy hearted a rite of passage - though perhaps more so the milkman clocking me walking home and telling the parents when I'm 'sleeping at a friends'
I felt steady as a teenager life before me, strong and ready..........been wobbling a bit ever since
but just like those nights grew into mornings we have to grow into ourselves - even if i do wobble, I suppose I'm less fade and more fall though 🙈
The Milkman Cafe at the foot of curving Cockburn Street, which leads down from the Royal Mile towards Waverley Bridge and the New Town. I love that this new business kept the old "ghost sign" of long-vanished shop above their frontage when they found it during renovation.
Lachero is famous in Ecuador, located almost 10,000 ft above the sea overlooking the amazing town of Otavalo ... but unfortunately it has fallen on harsh times and is no longer the Majesty of the Highlands in Ecuador as a wind storm has struck once too often and rumour has it that this ancient tree has been reduced to a fraction of the original size shown here ....
This photo was taken after the apex of its prime but even here you can see the gnarly branches reaching out to the sun. This tree is revered by the locals for centuries and as the oldest tree on the mountain it has seen generations of people come and go ... many bringing their worship and celebrations that have been enacted here over the years ...
I feel grateful to have captured this image before the winds broke it apart.
Long live Lechero ... the Milkman ...
This tree is ancient, no-one knows how old but the legend is that he was the lover of the maiden of the lake below and he guards her every day.
Tourists now talk of the walk and the hike and the view ... but think of how many hundreds of years people ... our people ... climbed to this summit and dreamed ...
last full serve in the area, pumps removed a few years ago along with the smiling attendant infamous for taking your credit card to the office and swiping it in more ways than one. so here's another piece of nostalgic real estate rotting away while the self-appointed committees recoil at all proposals to repurpose. finally, the local milkman extraordinaire is cleared to use the building as a dairy bar with the pavement in front brought back to grazing land for a small but, no doubt, charming and productive herd. maybe next summer this image will have legs.
Taken around 1978 with Yashica Matt (6X6 camera).
Milk is a distant memory from my youth in The Netherlands. It came in typical bottles with an aluminium cap. It had a unique taste, hard to describe, very milky. Half-bottles came in for direct consumption at primary school during lunch hour. Everyone in our class had learned the trick to open these bottles by pushing your elbow gently on the cap, so that it could be placed back. The black crates were unique as well; empty bottles were to be placed back in these crates and were collected by the milkman to be washed and re-used, only the caps were renewed. Today, most of our milk comes in tetra packs used only once. Milk from these packs is not bad, but the Dutch milk from the 1960-ies tasted better. This milky milk can actually still be bought on our Saturday markets, directly from the farm. To that purpose we have to bring our own bottles, but the beautiful classical milk bottles seem to have disappeared and somehow fallen out of grace. This is a pity because them bottles were fine and they were recycled in a time that nobody thought of the environment; it was just how things were done, once upon a time…..

CORDEWA MALE MILKMAN OUTFIT
🆕 New Realease 🆕
Available at MANHOOD EVENT 27 AUGUST 2025
There is a fun historical lore about these two houses being built by a father who was trying to bring his two sparring daughters together. So he built them each a house with a common yard hoping they would eventually come back together. How that story got started seems a mystery. ephemeralnewyork.wordpress.com/2017/12/24/the-story-of-th...
The truth is, a milkman from New Jersey saw this available plot of land, bought it from the city and built two identical houses to rent Originally they were two story, single family, but some where along the way a third floor was added and they were converted to apartments. I've only known them as single family.
In my lifetime in NYC, the house on the left was renovated in the late 80's I think by a gay couple who made it beautiful hanging wreaths in each window at Christmas and planting window boxes bursting with color the rest of the year. They sold to people in the wine industry with a vineyard in Napa Valley.
For years this couple supplied our Ye Old Village Fair fundraiser, with lots of delicious wine and they too decorated the windows at Christmas. Eventually, they moved full time to CA, selling the house to a very successful woman artist who upgraded the house to her liking in the mid 2000's.
The house on the right was owned by a woman who eventually I became friends with. She loved architecture and history and sometime in the late 60's or early 70's, she and her husband bought the house where she and her family lived. until 2021, when she sold the house to the woman artist next door.
The house has gone under about a $4 million make over and it looks beautiful. Both houses now look almost identical, as they did when they were built originally. There was some discussion that a tunnel would be built under the garden to connect the two buildings, but it is our understanding, they could not do it. I do not know why.
This is an image from a great day out at an abandoned WW2 bomb store.
This involves rotating the camera on its lens axis and a lens cap replacement during the exposure. All shot in one exposure, this is not a Photoshop creation and AI was still a twinkle in the milkman's eye when I shot this!
Reprocessed and reposted to Flickr since I mislaid the original RAW file. I thought I'd lost this so it's good to keep a copy!
