I LOVE SOUTHALL! King Street
Southall is quite a culturally mixed town, with a good mix of Muslims, Sikhs,
Hindus and Christians, which reflects the other population across the borough.

Aesthetics of imperfection
or
The modesty of the picture
(here on bush roots)
WASI-SABI .... an aesthetic concept from the Far East to perceive the nature of things. Wabi and Sabi are very closely related to Zen Buddhism.
WASI ... is the simplicity of things. Asymmetry, renunciation and naturalness. It also applies to asceticism.
SABI ... means to create a natural patina.
Sabi objects are authentic because they recognize three simple truths:
* Nothing remains
* nothing is complete
* and nothing is perfect.
======================================================
WASI-SABI .... ein ästhetisches Konzept aus Fernost, um das Wesen von Dingen wahrzunehmen. Wabi und Sabi sind sehr eng mit dem Zen-Buddhismus verwandt.
WASI ... ist die Einfachheit der Dinge. Asymmetrie, Verzicht und Natürlichkeit. Das gilt auch für die Askese.
SABI ... bedeutet, eine natürliche Patina zu erzeugen.
Sabi-Objekte sind authentisch, weil sie drei einfache Wahrheiten erkennen:
* Nichts bleibt
* nichts ist vollständig
* und nichts ist perfekt.

I'm actually impossibilitated to stay longer online, I'm just borrowing a tablet for a limited time until the below explained matter will be solved.
A bad admin, or, I should say worse, a malicius jerk administrating some groups with an incommensurable prosopopeia, professing his groups as the best of Flickr, (with what authority and modesty? Lol), sent an email to my mailbox injecting a bad virus: that of the ineptitude, oh my!
My doctor said I should follow a prophylaxis to avoid any contamination proscribing me to train with some new abstraction works. (I believe he means I should abstract myself from unrilevant ridiculous issues :-) There me go! This is my new abstract :-)
>>> Do you think I can be saved? Or should I sew that bad person who wrote me an amount of falsities and insults, hoping to offend me at no avail?
While Flickr is inspecting the case, especially after having had two approvals (certified by screenshots) for the same abstract, followed by two removals of the same and because he allowed himself to disrespectfully land in my profile with no permission and publicly drop lies and falsities, informing he -fakely- banned me from a group I had already left the week before as tired by his multiple unjustified incorrectnesses (this sounds a retaliation because with my free will I unjoined his elitary group!), I will post here my new preparatory abstract exercize for the attention of my Flickr Friends, contacts & visitors. It's been very relaxing making it!
Thought of the day: those who abuse of a unauthorized power, lose any credibility.
As my contacts and followers know, I'm an admin too, besides simple member in a number of groups, but I've never seen such a sociopath behaviour from the sides of an admin, asserting elitary and racist statemens on his "mythical" groups that, for him, but just for him, are the best ever on Flickr, although you should see the pool, not very much supporting his self-congratulatory position.
And, see, isn't this assertion offensive towards all the other admins and moderators of active groups who do their very best as volunteers ? Isn't this offensive for all those smart artists who decided to not join his groups ?
To tell it all, I had joined his 2/3 groups thinking that my humble works, not being a digital manipulator expert, could indeed fit in a middle, middle-mediocre group for ordinary creativity.
I tried to open his eyes, and I did also because, apart approving continuosly my submissions and then frantically removing my pics even after days with the false accusation I bypass the pending queue (ridiculous as impossible).
In particular, my pic that was heavily attacked by his comment (and 2 RRR emails = rude, redundant & racist) can be seen at this link: flic.kr/p/2oFPxRy.
I don't appreciate that admin continuously tampering me and my profile sending me a wide variety of invites to other groups, notwithstanding I regularly deny his invites and told him I don't need and don't feel like to post in those groups, but, no no, there's nothing to do in front of ignorance.
So, Friends, heads up, when someone treat you with disrespect, no matter what his/her role is, beware and possibly leave those groups that, if administrated with malpractices, rudeness and disrespect, are surely groups you don't belong.
Furthermore, the Flickr Community Guidelines assert, that a member removal can occur only just after 3 warnings and I received none, instead I received an award by the same admin who then removed my pic inventing I have overpassed the pending queue. The same admin who, while he believes to be a true digital artist, wrote me he was not able to download and visualize the PNG screenshot of my notifications proving beyond doubts that he had indeed approved my pic. Wow! A true professional! A fantasy visionary!
If similar episodes should happen to you, be aware you have the possibility to flag and report both the group and the admin responsible of bad treatments or unfair removals.
Happy new week!

Coming out of the subway tonight, and all the way up the hill to my apartment, I noticed tons tons tons of broken glass on the sidewalk. Weird sh*t always goes down on Halloween, but I don't ever remember seeing so much broken glass. And this is very fine, slivery white glass, as if from street lamps or light bulbs.
The dogs are desperate to go out; I don't know how I'm going to keep their paws away from these fine shards.

At all times, Slavic women were famous for their beauty and purity. They always dressed very beautifully and wore closed clothes in order to maintain purity not only physically, but also spiritually and to close themselves from evil eyes and dirty hands. Their skin was white, their hair was silky, their eyes were clear, their aura was luminous, their health was excellent. In the old days, they knew that dirt always immediately sticks to an open body. And washing it is always difficult and long. Do not forget the wise rules that our ancestors left us.

Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety
You could end up as the only one
Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society
At night a candle's brighter than the sun.
modestie et propriété peuvent conduire à la notoriété
vous pouvez finir en étant LE seul
La gentillesse, la sobriété sont rares dans cette
société

This funny tree grows right in front of the building where I work (McMaster University campus).
There once was a white wolf
named Post
whose nature was never
to boast.
But then he met Fran,
an amazing great fan,
And Post's modesty and tact
became toast.
Many old oil paintings crack, but they don't crack evenly. Some places crack more than others and these cracks are not entirely random. Cracks occur when one specific pigment is placed over another and their chemistries cause the upper layer to crack. But other pigments lie on top of others with no difficulty. Oil painters work less from a knowledge of the color wheel and more from their knowledge and experience with pigments. Pigments are not just colors. They have other qualities that must be understood and managed.
The next time you're in a museum with old oil paintings notice, if the painting is cracked, where the cracks occur.

In all its modesty, this fisherman’s cottage, dating from the second half of the 19th century, is a charming witness to life along the coast in the period before tourism.
Hidden behind dunes, with windows and doors facing the hinterland, the coastal residents of the time built their homes in such a way that they received maximum natural protection from wind and weather.
This stands in stark contrast to the building style of the first tourists, who dug away dunes and constructed their villas facing the sea to enjoy the beautiful view.
Fishermen’s cottages, as well as gardeners’ posts, are usually small but excel in the optimal use of limited space. In addition to the living area, this cottage also includes a stable. In the right side wall, openings were made for a dovecote. There is a separate toilet building and a water well.
This type of dwelling used to be very common. However, due to advancing tourism and the disappearance of small horticultural businesses, few remain today. It is therefore fitting that this fisherman’s cottage was designated as a protected monument in 1985.

Take modesty, for instance / and self respect /

A great egret (same individual as in the previous image) ends its performance with a move that dispels all pretence of modesty [clever oxymoron?]. Neighbor, lost in thought, is not impressed.

I discovered you on a beautiful spring morning. The dew was still with you from the night and conjured a lovely mood on your beautiful floral dress. I was so happy about your sight in the big meadow. You were almost a bit away from your companions and smiled at me with your beauty. I love your colors, your purity and your modesty so much. You remind me of someone who has been there for years and unfortunately is not anymore. I come back to this place of silence and refresh myself at the sight of you all. You are a treasure of nature and enjoy my heart with every visit. I'll be back soon. 🌹🌹🌹
Dance with me into the wonderful springtime my dear friends.

Humility (modesty, opposes Pride) Modest behavior, selflessness, and the giving of respect. Giving credit where credit is due; not unfairly glorifying one's own self.
