"The shadow is born of light" This quotation from John Gay, a writer of the 18th century, didn't loose any of its importance, even if many people seem to have a very onesided point of view. They delight on the light ore damn the shadows. But non of them can exist without the other. Only the one who is aware of the darkness knows to appreciate the light and the one who knows how light is feeling can find out of the shadows. In all what is surrounding us, even in ourselfs, both is united.
"Schatten wird aus Licht geboren." Dieses Zitat von John Gay, einem Schriftsteller aus dem 18. Jahrhundert, hat bis heute nichts an seiner Bedeutung verloren, auch wenn der Blickwinkel vieler Menschen sehr einseitig zu sein scheint. Sie ergötzen sich an dem Licht oder verfluchen den Schatten. Doch das eine kann ohne das andere nicht existieren. Nur wer sich der Dunkelheit bewusst ist, weiß das Licht zu würdigen und jeder der weiß wie sich das Licht anfühlt, kann auch wieder aus dem Schatten heraus finden. In allem was uns umgiebt, sogar in jedem von uns, ist beides vereint.
I met this gorgeous horse on a walk at Whiteford Point - he was very happy to come and say hello and we had a lovely conversation - albeit a bit onesided! HFF!
Russia won WW II. No need to occupy itself with the evil its leaders did. Accordingly, a museum dedicated to the mass murderer Stalin seems still to be in perfect order. Even when nowadays it is located in Georgia.
Unthinkable to someone coming from Germany where the view on the Third Reich is clear and unequivocally negative - at least to those being able of critical thinking.
But I guess other nations aren't that aware of history and especially the social media youth as shortly after I took this image, a couple of Asian kids took selfies with Stalin for TikTok or Instagram. I doubt that they reflected about anything else than how to give their best impression.
We left the museum again after a brief look into this entrance hall as we didn't want to support the onesided positive outlook on him which is said to be on display there.
Manouvering the WILLIAM JESSOP from oneside of the canal where it was moored to the wharf to board passengers is much easier than it looks aided by the natural flow of the canal.
Horsedrawn passenger services on the Llangollen Canal commenced in the 1880s with the present service being established by Captain Samuel Jones in 1884.
Today the service is operated by Welsh Canal Holiday Craft trading as Llangollen Wharf who also operate a powered narrow boat on excursions to the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, hire out day boats, as seen here, and operate a cafe and gift shop in the former wharf goods shed.

If you don't have enough equipment, just be more creative! It's amazing how far improvising can bring you!

'DING-DONG BLUE'.
During this prolonged spell of miserable weather, 'cabin fever' and an urgent need to connect with nature found me heading to a local wood one afternoon. Conditions were not ideal for photography but the earthy, bluebell-scented atmosphere within the wood was just what the doctor ordered!
one way is orange with stripe, the other is linen with pocket oneside and panel the other side.

Good weather this morning, so we did some bubble popping. I didn't get much depth of field (f/2.8) from ISO 400, but what was in focus was nice and clear. You can see through the bubble, to see that the back of the bubble has popped. This is because Sarah's hand was to the back more than to the side. That's probably why the reflection is so clear: there's no reflections from the back (because there is no back!!!!). Now I think about it, this is something of a one-off!

'LITTLE BLUE STAR'.
If ever there was a day to question what's happened to Spring, it has got to be this one! It's cold, grey and the rain hasn't stopped all morning.
Time then to celebrate Bluebells and other wild flowers that are striving against the odds to get going. This image was made in a local bluebell wood where I was struck by the angle of one open flower resting on some unopened flower buds.
Hope my view of the little blue star brings some cheer to a dismal Friday.
BEST VIEWED LARGE.
The four-eyed fishes are a genus, Anableps, of fishes in the family Anablepidae. They have eyes raised above the top of the head and divided in two different parts, so that they can see below and above the water surface at the same time.
Like their relatives, the onesided livebearers, four-eyed fishes only mate on one side, right-"handed" males with left-"handed" females and vice versa.
I captured image of this little fish in Berlin Zoological Garden. This finger long fish was swimming on the surface of the water swiftly. Its two big eyes just popped up on the water surface where I could focus at.
Balnakeil Bay Nr Durness this is to oneside of the ruins of the Church, what a view they had when coming out, if they looked.
Just messing about with a Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX lens on a full-frame D600. Fine if fairly wide open - and needed Nikon distortion control.
A quick update to let my flickr friends know that I am still alive and well, have been busy working on other things and haven't really had much time to photograph anything.... so what else, but to take a quick self portrait :D
I will get to your posts later during the day!
Thank you for looking! :)

So, Neville's hobby is dancing. He goes to this dance without sight class, for visually impaired. They do great and have lotsa fun. Then, they got this 24hrTV gig - you know 24hrTV? It's seriously amazing charity fest that takes place every summer in japan, google it, it's so inspiring! Basically, it's all about people overcoming their disabilities and proving that dream can be archived at least at some extend even when you think it's not possible. And it's being hosted by almost every and each actor/singer/musician/artist japan has, every one helps and joins the fun in every way they can.
Anyway, Neville's class got invited to 24hrTV and Pandora Box got to supervise and help them (band playing music, obviously, Kokoro - dancing with them! :D ) and that was how Kokoro met Neville. And completely fell for him from the first sight :'D Poor thing, because Neville's heart is already elsewhere and not going back :')
but there will be more of onesided Kokoro/Neville in the future because drama!!!1
Common Bluebell / hyacinthoides non-scripta. Mapperley Wood, Derbyshire. 26/04/16.
From a couple of weeks ago in a local wood.
The image was made on a day of mixed weather with everything from bright sunshine to hail and snow. This made for even more acute changes in light than usual.
The doors to the deck lead out from my computer room! I saw the sun hitting it like I love,and had to grab my camera!
This is where I sit in the mornings to have my ONE cup of coffee, and watch nature!
These beautiful Gardens which overlook the Sea on oneside and the Crescent houses on the other,These houses were built from the 1830s onwards and are a well known landmark;
This is a hand-written manuscript produced on some type of fine polished animal skin. I own two of them, which I bought very inexpensively years ago. One has a defect at the edge of the page, and this one has some sort of random mark on oneside. I used to do a lot of calligraphy, some with handmade reed pens, so I could appreciate how these scribes worked. Years ago, pages like this were plentiful and not really seen as any type of art form.
Edward Johnston, a calligrapher who was largely responsible for the rebirth of the art during the last century, wrote a lot about the old scribes. He said that "the thing that would have struck us most--even more than the skill, would have been the speed with which he wrote...they didn't seek beauty directly....everything they did was primarily for use and even those gorgeous letters they put in their illuminated manuscripts were primarily for use as book markers. " He went on to point out that despite the utilitarian goal, scribes had a "dream of divine beauty that they were seeking," and thus were able to manifest it in their work.

Was taking a stroll with the family last night on the Quay side, and the clouds were very ominous, on oneside with bright sunshine on the otherside, it was a like a clash of elements, hence the bridge was bathed in bright light but in the background dark clouds were coming
Mobius strip
Here's one I made earlier.
" A Möbius strip made with a piece of paper and tape. If an ant were to crawl along the length of this strip, it would return to its starting point having traversed the entire length of the strip (on both sides of the original paper) without ever crossing an edge."
"The Möbius strip or Möbius band (/ˈmɜːrbiəs/ (non-rhotic) or US /ˈmoʊbiəs/; German: [ˈmøːbi̯ʊs]), Mobius or Moebius, is a surface with only one side (when embedded in 3-dimensional Euclidean space) and only one boundary. The Möbius strip has the mathematical property of being non-orientable. It can be realised as a ruled surface. It was discovered independently by the German mathematicians August Ferdinand Möbius and Johann Benedict Listing in 1858."
Here is a quick exchange with Tocs one, just a throwie exchange though I admit that first one is not exactly a throwy ...
Stumbled upon this dude whose got a good hand and good ideas for his throws ... unfortunently been quite busy so not sure if these are up to par with what I could do. This name turned out harder then I thought (most sketches went directly in the bin ... guess i'm not used to starting with T's). The bottom right one is inspired by Dabs YIA's throwies, he figured out a great way of connecting the letters at the top to create a oneliner. I think I like the forth one best , as it's split in the middle you can place half on oneside then the other half a couple meters away. Hope you like em, will keep trying some hoping to bounce a good solid idea.
Wearing personae (masks), however, is not dangerous for the man who is aware of them.
-Thomas Merton
The renewal of man involves renewal of the sense of wonder and mystery of being alive, taking notice of the moment as a surprise. The renewal of man must begin with rebellion against reducing existence to mere fact or function.
