Sadly today my girlfriend went off with her family for a long holiday to visit L.A and Hawaii. This is some of her money she had already exchanged before heading off.
Also this photo isn't the best quality since I wasn't able to edit it in PS. Anything with currency doesn't seem to open properly....
Hands Off! Protest in Vero Beach, Florida on April 5, 2025. A large crowd of over 2000 showed up to protest Trump and Elon Musk policies and the havoc caused by DOGE. This was one of 1200 locations where people raised their voices across the nation with more than 5 million participating. Resist!
First off, I wasn't sure about this day's theme. This is because i never showed my face on flickr and i prefer being in back of the camera. But since i don't want to back down, I decided to try a silhouette shot. So there you guys have it, my 1st attempt at a silhouette shot. Plus I have a couple of tags so lets get on w/ those. (awesome timing, right?)

Or how off-camera-flash can even improve your holiday pictures. The forrest looked like crap at first, so I put a flash on a tree to the camera right and underexposed the background by 2 stops to get that "dark fortunetale forrest"-feeling.
Going through some old photos and tried my best to save this one as i really liked i ... took a few hours

setting off from our friend dave's house in pittsburg. this was the beginning of our 300 mile bicycle adventure from pittsburgh, pa to leesburg, va. and yes my bike is as heavy as it looks. comletely unloaded, without the baby seat or water bottles it weighs in at 49.8lbs. with kid and gear, it was probably in the 175 to 200 range. beyond the first 10 miles to get out of pittsburgh, this was a thankfully flat trip.
Madrid, Spain. An unfair face-off between the "hero" and the bull. Unfair because the hero's 6+ teammates already took stabs at the bull prior to his grand appearance.

Since the Inspector has a cloud for a face i figure he can manipulate his features and expressions to suit his current mood. Here he is reclining pensively with a good book and a rather impressive vapour-moustache.
About 20years ago this former Devon Iveco minibus was on transfer to the North West for conversion into a mobile engineering workshop.
Whilst on the second leg of it's journey from Hyde Road the bus fell victim to an engine fire.
The bus is pictured here at the compound at Ackhurst Industrial Estate, Chorley.
This was taken so long ago of a girl i barely remember that i am surprised i was able to salvage it and work it in photoshop. Film is usually the first to go. Mamiya RB67 before it crapped out on me.
Female firefly on a blade of grass in my backyard. She may or may not have been impressed with the off-camera strobe going off above her, but several males landed nearby while I was shooting. They were probably thinking, "Holy cow!"
Car three by Roy Lichtenstein is one of the most popular of all the Art Cars; the BMW 320 Group 5. The artist had this to say on the fruit of his labours: ‘I invested as much thought and effort as possible’. Undeniably! The result of these efforts is a harmonious combination of the aerodynamics in the bodywork with the aesthetics of his art; after all it is one of the fastest moving pieces of art the world has ever seen. Lichtenstein’s famous comic strip style is reflected in the paintwork. ‘The painted lines symbolise the road the car has to follow and the artwork also portrays the surroundings through which the car is being driven’.
BMW Art Car 03 | Roy Lichtenstein | United States | 1977 BMW 320i Group 5 Race Version
Born in New York in 1923, Roy Lichtenstein is generally regarded as the father of American pop art. In the years prior to 1938 he painted portraits of jazz musicians. After this, he attended courses held by the “Art Student League,” then went on to study art in Ohio.
His subsequent work straddled cubism and expressionism. In the late 1950s, Lichtenstein began dealing with trivial culture such as comics and advertisements. His first pop art pictures appeared in 1961, their monumentalization of the banal heralding a completely new style of art.
Following his caricatures of the “American Way of Life,” experiments with well-known works of art and various sculptures and films, the Museum of Modern Art in New York held a comprehensive retrospective of Lichtenstein’s work in 1987. He died in New York in 1997.

Roy Lichtenstein and his BMW Art Car
Roy Lichtenstein can still remember vividly how he produced the design for his racing car – a BMW 320i – back in 1977:
“I wanted to use painted lines as a road, pointing the way for the car. The design also shows the scenery as it passes by. Even the sky and sunlight are to be seen … you could list all the things a car experiences – the only difference is that this car mirrors all these things even before it takes to the road.”
Taking a closer look, the car’s design casts a picture of passing scenery in which both the car and its movement are one single entity. And although Lichtenstein’s comic art was already a thing of the past by then, his BMW Art Car is clearly influence by it: the long-drawn colored strips act as “speedlines” – a feature used in comics to suggest speed. Even the oversized dots used by Lichtenstein, the “Benday Dots,” are reminiscent of his famous comic book pictures.
“I thought hard and put all I had into it.”
— Roy Lichtenstein
The harmony achieved between predetermined aerodynamic features and free composition is pure Lichtenstein. It is an expression of his artistic credo: art must be an element of everyday life – its themes and inspiration must come from the lives of ordinary people.
After its completion, Roy Lichtenstein’s BMW Art Car celebrated not one, but two premieres: as a work of art at the Centre Pompidou in Paris, and as a racing car in the Le Mans 24-Hour Race. It was driven by the Frenchmen Herve Poulain and Marcel Mignot. The car finished 9th overall and first in its class.

This Lego miniland scale BMW Art Car #3 - 320 Group 5 Racer (Roy Lichtenstain 1977) has been created for Flickr LUGNuts' 96th Build Challenge - The 8th Birthday, titled - 'Happy Crazy Eight Birthday, LUGNuts' - where all previous build challenges are available to build to. This model is built to the LUGNuts 94th build challenge, - "Appease the Elves Summer Automobile Build-off (Part 2)" - a design challenge combining the resources of LUGNuts, TheLegoCarBlog (TLCB) and Head Turnerz.
This was one of the cars I had prepared for the TCLB / Head Turnerz Challenge, had built 90% of the way there in bricks, had a few parts to go that weren't in my collection, and stopped. Unfortunately, the built model is still in this state.
