A Japanese rock garden (枯山水, karesansui?), sometimes called a Zen garden, is an enclosed shallow sandpit containing sand, gravel, rocks, and occasionally grass and/or other natural elements. The main elements of karesansui are rocks and sand, with the sea symbolized not by water but by sand raked in patterns that suggest rippling water. Plants are much less important (and sometimes nonexistent) in many karesansui gardens. Karesansui gardens are often, but not always, meant to be viewed from a single, seated position. Some Westerners believe that karesansui gardens can be used to calm human minds, but they were not intended for such in their native Japanese settings.

I visited a relatively unknown area on Lake Superior in Marquette, Michigan a few during mid-September. I came at sunrise to photography this small pool of water that collects in a nook off of the great lake. The water is often very still even with wind, but the wind this day was nonexistent, so the water looked more like glass, reflecting everything, I hope you enjoy!
Mendon Ponds Park is owned and very poorly maintained by the County of Monroe, NY.
Unfortunately, this extraordinary property is rapidly deteriorating due to an egregious lack of care. Trails are not cleared of debris... signs are useless. Park maintenance is essentially nonexistent. They do have a marketing department. Seriously, the taxpayers are paying the salaries of a county parks marketing department.

Emma lounging. Leaf color has been a little uneven this year - great in spots, nonexistent elsewhere and generally quick to fall, it seems.
Atlanta Braves baseball from 20 September 2019 (the night they clinched the division crown). The new park (opened in 2018) gets panned a little because it's usually pretty hot in Georgia and a heck of a lot of seats are in direct sun.
It's a relatively generic stadium (in the new mold of generic stadiums), but it's nice. The area outside the stadium (bars/restaurants) is actually a bit more interesting/unique than the stadium itself.
The biggest drawback is that the Atlanta Braves no longer play in Atlanta. (That and parking is almost nonexistent up there in Marietta near the stadium. We were scratching our heads looking for the actual parking lots.)
As for the game...it was a great game. First time in my life I actually got to see a division-clinching game. (They'd clinched a playoff spot a few days before.)

Lensbaby boredom @ work in the bathroom mirror. I was about to leave for the day, and went to the restroom. Figured I'd take a pic or four. Using a Lensbaby without the viewfinder is serious trial and error, since the lens tilts for selective focus, and the depth of field is almost nonexistent.

The Harbortown Car Show has become the new Manitowoc County event happening on Labor Day weekend alongside Kites Over Lake Michigan in Two Rivers and many other events. This is the fourth annual car show and here’s what caught our attention.
1. ONE STRONG AUSTRIAN: A Steyr Puch Pinzgauer military vehicle appeared at the Harbortown Car Show…but however this is not the first time I have seen the Pinzgauer in Manitowoc…in 2020, I have seen a “civilian version” of the vehicle in 2020 and even the year before that. I wrote about the Pinzgauer and Steyr Puch back then and well….here’s some facts I just read on the sign on the window, there are several imported Pinzgauers in Wisconsin including the two vehicles that were included in the editions of “Tramwood”. Most British stored surplus Pinzgauers had been used as ambulances for the Russian/Ukraine war. In fact there was one unusual item in a vehicle which was a homemade cupholder.
2. FINE PRESENATION FOR ONE UNLOVED CHRYSLER CONVERTIBLE OF ALL TIME: “Unloved” is kind of a word that describes the Chrysler TC by Maserati. Despite the good looks…the car never seemed to gain the sales charts like say, the Chrysler LeBaron. I spotted a pristine late model car complete with a driver’s side airbag (Chrysler featured airbags in their vehicles in the 1990s that started with cars and minivans from 1987 to 1991 and then Jeep SUVs, Mitsubishi-based imports and Dodge trucks in 1994 to 1997) and I spotted a hat on the passenger seat of the car. What a nice display of a Chrysler that many people sometimes forget. (Although Maserati would now be under the same umbrella as Chrysler under Stellantis!)
3. SHUT ‘EM DOWN: A green Shelby Cobra wowed the public despite the fact the top was up. I’ve seen many Cobras at car shows even the replicas…of course I don’t recall seeing one with the top up. That has to be extra work to get the top up and down I’ve heard.
4. BUILT TO SERVE: I spotted this vintage fire fighter support vehicle at the car show and it was a classic Dodge Pickup. This vehicle was from the 1970s and Dodge didn’t use the “Ram” name until 1981. Ram became a standalone brand in 2010. This truck looks pretty sharp and looks like it’s ready to take on the toughest emergency.
5. “THAT’S A HUMMER?!”: Before the Hummer was used for hyper macho SUVs that spawned from the AM General HUMVEE. Harley Davidson produced a motorcycle called the Hummer from 1955 to 1958 that featured a single cylinder two stroke engine. I spotted this nicely restored motorcycle complete with advertisements of the bike.
6. WHEELS ON FIRE…ROLLIN’ DOWN THE ROOOOOOAD: That song I’m referring to is the song by Siouxie and The Banshees as I showcase this very wild paint job on a Harley I spotted at the Harbortown Car Show.
7. HARBORTOWN OR PROWLERTOWN?: This is not the first time that a Plymouth Prowler appeared at the Harbortown Car Show…and this red vehicle won’t be the last. The Prowler was the most memorable sports car sold alongside the Dodge Viper…but however it had been tarnished with a power plant from the Chrysler LH sedans rather than anything mightier from Chrysler’s power train arsenal and a trunk space that is hilariously nonexistent other than a manually operated top.
8. STRAIGHT FROM A DAVID LYNCH FILM: This Oldsmobile 88 had a pretty wicked looking interior that seem like it could be perfect for a David Lynch film or even a music video for Nine Inch Nails or any other gothic/industrial rock band.
9. HOT ROD CAMARO: As I was at the car show…we saw the vehicles roll into the car show…I spotted this nice looking third generation Camaro rolling into the car show. There was a black gold paint scheme, custom wheels and blacked out turn signals to make the vehicle look like Chevy’s audition to play the role as K.I.T.T from “Knight Rider”.
10. FROM KENTUCKY TO LEMANS TO WISCONSIN: The new version of the Chevrolet Corvette Z06 has become a massive hit for Chevrolet and it even snagged the 2023 “Motor Trend” Performance Car of the Year award. But however the Z06 was eclipsed by the new high-tech Corvette eRay…an All Wheel Drive hybrid-powered vehicle which is a first glimpse of the Corvette’s electric future.
11. MAKE IT HAPPEN NEXT YEAR: I spotted two vehicles parked at the Fox Communities Credit Union parking lot which is the custom version of the Jeep Gladiator and Porsche Boxster. Didn’t look like they were going to be at the show…possibly they might find their way to next year’s car show.
12. “YOU GUYS HAVING YOUR OWN CAR SHOW?!: Oh…I spotted this at the same parking lot…car enthusiasts with their Mustangs, Camaros, Corvettes and BMWs gathering around the parking lot like they are creating their own car show!
Behold: I finally have a garden again! The garden in 2010 was okay - got enough tomatoes and basil to keep me happy, but not much else. The garden in 2011 was nonexistent, except for strawberries: there were NO sunny days until the 2nd week of August that year (not exaggerating). This year, the weather has been perfect since July 1, and I have the best garden I've had in Oregon. Strawberries have done particularly well this year - Stefan has been very happy as a result. Note: all of the tomato plants on the left side of the photo showed up in pots with other plants this year - they were from seeds planted LAST year that never produced!
I admit: I garden on the cheap. The raised beds were made by Stefan from discarded wood he salvaged from work, more than half of the containers are things I've found discarded here and there while walking Albi in the mornings, and the topsy turvey planters are from 2010 (but they are definitely on their last leg - they are NOT meant to survive more than one season).
By believing passionately in something that still does not exist, we create it. The nonexistent is whatever we have not sufficiently desired.

Del Martin, one of the pioneers of the modern Gay and Lesbian Civil Rights Movement, passed away today at the age of 87.
She ws surrounded by friends, family, and leaves a legacy of unity and peace and greater freedom and safety for the LGBT community and world.
I had the pleasure of speaking to both Del and Phyllis, and had the opportunity to thank them for the simple courage of being. By the simplest act of being an out and proud partner in one of the longest lasting same-sex unions in our nation and at a time when our rights were nonexistent, they were able to enable all of us to be safer, and express our sexuality with less fear of ostracism, loss of livelihood, and even loss of our lives.
I encourage you all to take a moment to remember this woman. Without her, and others who have gone forth ahead, the rights of individual citizens would have taken longer to arrive. It took nearly a lifetime, but I am so gratified that at the time of her passing, she was unified with her partner.

I took this shot with the now-nonexistent Alaska Way Viaduct behind me, with the idea of posting about how cold it tends to be on sunny days in the fall. But, I never did post this to social media.

Maine state capitol in Augusta. The only other time I've seen this building was way back in late summer 1996. The dome was green then. Coppery green, like the Statue of Liberty (as is given away in the collage picture of the capitol made of business cards posted here). It was recently repainted black, within the last few years.
It's a fairly straightforward and understated capitol which makes it enjoyable. The city of Augusta...an unusual place. A town of 20,000, there aren't many amenities here, and public transportation is nonexistent. I was incredibly lucky to get uber drivers, according to the one who drove me back to the bus station. Overall, Maine isn't a place to be if you aren't driving yourself around.
A Photo A Day For A Year
Day 05
I'm not exactly happy with this photo, but it's the best I could do on a night when inspiration was just nonexistent for me. This was a thirty second exposure in the large cornfield that is my back yard. Normally, I'd have stayed out longer to achieve a better shot, but to be honest, I'm just drained and it was so ridiculously cold outside.

Another from Memorial Day weekend.
I had planned on going out Friday night to do some night photography and took a nice long nap when I got home from work so I'd be fresh. When I woke up I found that it was raining so it was a bust. Last night it was supposed to rain but when I looked out at 9pm it was clear so I grabbed my stuff and headed to Mt. Evans. At 14,240 feet I figured I was sure to get some nice star shots. What I didn't count on was the smoke from the Arizona fire. It put a haze in the sky that really dimmed the stars. And the wind up there was clocking at about a steady 40 mph with stronger gusts. And the moon was way too bright. Soooo, I just kept the camera in the car and bundled up and explored the top of the mountain. The nice thing about going up there in the middle of the night is that I had the place to myself. I felt like I was on top of the world, and with the near full moon I could see quite well. Denver doesn't look very big from up there. There were also thunderstorms off to the east that were keeping me entertained.
If you have even the slightest fear of heights, I don't recommend going up there. I had a near constant sense of vertigo. The road has no guard rails and some of the drops are really far down. There were moths up above 12,000 feet that were swarming. I've never seen anything like it. Hundreds of thousands of them. Weird. And I also saw a rabbit at 14,000 feet. What the hell he was doing up there I don't know. WAY above the tree line and vegetation is basically nonexistent at that altitude. Maybe he was eating moths!
Purple bridge - bright lights. Suddenly, Szymborska:
"So these are the Himalayas.
Mountains racing to the moon.
The moment of their start recorded
on the startling, ripped canvas of the sky.
Holes punched in a desert of clouds.
Thrust into nothing.
Echo—a white mute.
Quiet."

The wind dropped steadily during the varsity races, to the point where it was all but nonexistent as the racers came home. Jo was first, and I tried to line up a nice shot with Saudi and the other windsurfers in the background. Not very pleased with it, really.
The Navy Elevated Causeway System will act as a conduit between the ships anchored at sea and the shore during Joint Logistics Over The Shore 2008. JLOTS is an exercise that increases the Army's and Navy's ability to build improvised ports for transporting equipment from ship to shore when a harbor or pier has been damaged or is nonexistent. Nearly 1,500 pieces of rolling equipment and shipping containers will be moved from ships with a series of lighterage systems (floating roadways) and smaller boats to improvised piers on the shore.

you press the nonexistent crown and the back opens up. this reveals the 2 holes where you put the key to wind/change time.

Zero, Athena, B-26, R00T27O2
exceprt:
"Okay. So the Athena that you honor on your medallion isn't a supernatural being--"
"--who lives on a mountain in Greece, et cetera, but rather whatever entity, pattern, trend, or what-have-you that, when perceived by ancient Greek people, and filtered through their perceptual machinery and their pagan worldview, produced the internal mental representation that they dubbed Athena. The distinction being quite important because Athena the supernatural-chick-with-the-helmet is of course nonexistent, but 'Athena' the external-generator-of-the-internal-representation dubbed-Athena-by-theancient-Greeks must have existed back then, or else the internal representation never would have been generated, and if she existed back then, the chances are excellent that she exists now, and if all that is the case, then whatever ideas the ancient Greeks (who, though utter shitheads in many ways, were terrifyingly intelligent people) had about her are probably still quite valid."
The cataracts are significant because they define river segments where granites and other hard rocks come down to the edge of the Nile. The floodplain is narrow to nonexistent here, and opportunities for agricultural development is correspondingly limited.
Seaweed salad, lotus root
They should change the name of this dish to seaweed salad instead of crunch okra, as you can tell from this photo.
I don't really like this dish that much. Also the fact the okra's practically nonexistent since it's finely chopped inside this forest of seaweed.
Yaroslav Gerzhedovich, 1970 | Surrealist / Gothic style painter
Yaroslav Gerzhedovich was born in Leningrad in 1970, later graduating from the Nikolai Roerich Fine School of Arts. Gerzhedovich's works are always masterfully painted with his style echoing those of the old masters.
His graphic works are drawn in muted tones, resemble illustrations to nonexistent fictional novels and have found numerous fans after frequently popping up on the Internet. The World Wide Web became not only a means for sharing his artistic call to escape mundane reality for the world of fantasy but also a source of inspiration for the artist.

This is my first attempt at HDR.
It was a sunny day so I decided to visit The British Museum. Unfortunately by the time I got there, it became cloudy and the dramatic deep blue sky I had hoped to capture with sun light streaming through the curved glass roof and casting shadows were nonexistent. :-( Instead the sky turned a whitish grey and inside the museum everything looked dull and colourless. So HDR to the rescue!
All the shots were taken handheld (who says you need a tripod) 3 bracketed exposures set at continuous firing.
After a few hours at the museum as the weather was poor I decided to visit Westminster Cathedral. I had to struggle to get there and find parking. Once inside I found out that photography wasn’t allowed during a service so I had to wait around an hour until it finished. I think I captured some good shots for HDR but unbelievably, when I got back home and started to download the photos, half way through the download the memory card got somehow got jammed and I couldn’t download the photos from the church. What a nightmare! A wasted afternoon:-( By the way, this was a new 32GB Kingston elite pro card. The shop recommended it to me as they didn’t have the Lexar in stock that I wanted. So I won’t be buyer Kingston cards again.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the photos.
As it’s my first attempt at HDR I would be grateful for your comments, criticisms etc.
The abundance and diversity of succulent species in the sagebrush steppe (e.g,. Cactaceae, Crassulaceae, Portulaceae, etc.) is indicative of low levels of disturbance. Sedum lanceolatum is distinguished by its lanceolate leaves with papillose surfaces and a lack of evident venation. Axillary shoots are also nonexistent to poorly developed in this species.
+3 in the comments
it snowed for the first time this winter today. i felt like i needed to capture something, even if it was a small something.
i have a lot on my plate, but since i decided to stop using my tumblr and continue to forget about my facebook, i've been obsessing over flickr...mostly kelly havens reed and bailey kopp. they are such amazing photographers and girls in general, and i'm just really inspired by them at the moment. i hope to take more photos as the winter goes on. in fact, on friday i'm baking cookies with my close friends so i hope to take photos then. don't think i forgot about you, flickr. you're on my list. it's just that my photos recently have been...well...nonexistent and lame. lame as in, photo class lame.
hopefully you're enjoying the christmas lights and cheer. i bought all my presents on saturday. happy monday. xx
This is the reason I haven't been around much this weekend.
The starter went on the car. This is NOT the Porsche, the Porsche has it's own problems. So this morning, I had two, count 'em TWO dead cars and a severe urge to find a subway near here.
Unfortunately, since the public transit system in NJ is damn near nonexistent (laughable at best) I HAD to call a tow and had this taken care of today. *sigh*
So this is how I spent my Sunday.
It could have been worse. I'm actually ok with all this. It happens. And at least I didn't get stranded the hell far away or something like that. But yeah...it may take me a little bit to catch up with y'all...
An Evening with Noel Fielding - graphic design made using Adobe Photoshop. A cover contept for Noel Fielding's nonexistent podcast.
Back in those pre-digital-camera days, where before you could see your pictures you had to fill up a roll of film, take it somewhere to be developed, and then pay some scarce $$$ when you picked your photos up a few days later, being unable to immediately upload timestamped photos to the nonexistent Internet I had to include labelings like the "10" card above in my puppy photos, to indicate how many days old the puppies were.
