2nd day : Journey to Ha Long Bay
After about an hour and half on the way ( Hanoi to Ha long Bay ), our guide instructed the bus driver to pull-over at a gas station near by Hai Duong city, so some of our friends could refresh themselves or use the toilet. At the meantime used the oppurtunity to take pictures of some Vietnamese farmers working at the rice fields. here the rice fields looks so green and fertile, just like in my country.
--
Setelah 1 jam setengah kami berjalan ( dari Hanoi menuju Ha Long Bay ), pemandu wisata kami menginstruksikan supir bus supaya berhenti di salah satu pom bensin dekat dengan kota Hai Duong agar beberapa teman bisa turun untuk menggunakan toilet. Aku memanfaatkan waktu untuk memotret para petani Vietnam yang sedang bekerja disawah. tampak sawah disini begitu hijau dan subur, sama suburnya seperti di negara saya.

'Overall very good condition apart from a bit of corrosion on the rear arches' I would call that more than just a bit... The car in my opinion is in ok condition and I would have bought it from the owner if the oppurtunity arisen. I can see this car sitting for quite some time as at £1795 its well overpriced.
not quite exactly maths since brackets are involved, but you get what I mean.
I wanted to explore the 422 today so I decided to head to Greenwich, take a photo of 386 in the process too, but I couldn't help but not take this golden oppurtunity whilst I was waiting for PVL365 which turned out to be very late, being only one minute ahead of the one behind.

It was time to put up the Christmas decorations in our house and I took the oppurtunity to do some depth of field testing. Also, is this a self portrait because of my reflection in the Christmas ornament?
Taken handheld with manual focus and the clarity of the Pentax K50 viewfinder helps me to keep the subject sharply in focus.
an absolutely fantastic line up of four Wrights Eclipse Gemmini bodied Volvo B7's used currently on Harrogate's service 36 between Leeds and Ripon via Harrogate.
This line up greeted me at 6am Sunday morning and i only had just over an hour to capture this shot before the line up was broken for service, I took the shots at 7am just after sunrise, it would have been easier at 8am but that was not an option......... I had no input whatsoever in creating this line up.............. BUT boy did I make the most of it. !!!

2> I am in an area many don't understand
3> I can see how to modernize areas - though
complicated becaues various problems among
all.. myself included from time to time = interacting
starts off great. gradually parts will disentegrate in a
community effort to improve health
each person = a unique equations from equations that are nobody elses equations
in the manner I present for sake of smooth conversation
a bridge of oppurtunity - not of a financial manner. yet.. benefits said.
I get it.. pipe dream accusations.. delusional.. eternal illogical optimist..
unrealistic.. well.. if we thought that way as a whole this entire time, where would we be?
t or f : a divide exists among some professionals when it comes to those in demographics they would
prefer to not be. as in - economically speaking.
SOME professors.. not all. seem to show signs of dysfunction and unrealistice views pertaining to that which
can be shown to be true within their own families too. sadness.. depression.. distancing - judging - shame -
superior mindsets set into motion in a mold of boring and old primitive stage tactics as applied to the modern
world. how embassing is that?
"he can write!!" hehehe ooh ooh ooh ah ah ah - rattle it goot.
=======================================
seen today. as in - delayed introduction of food safety laws - some say for as long as 70 years or more.
this impacted everyone.. not this "Group" not that "group" .. everyone.
as people were filled with crap that made their bodies and brains not funciton correctly the problems were used
justified primitive muddy mucky oozing ways.
good people are ALWAYS taken advantage of. the slaves who came from africa were not the ones ones in chains!!
the white people who came here were seen as sheep... tell me.. .what religion = those who came? Who taught them..
show me EXACTLY what they were taught on a dialy basis. then.. prove your information is accurate. then..
you have to prove their source = accurate. and you CAN'T.. because who educated the forensic arvhive investigators?
who what kind of army does not prepare to protect food / meds / so on.. during WAR.. the cold war came with a body count. .why
could secret service or military NOT intervene and STOP THE @#$#@ SLAUGHTER? How were all laws so manipulated ..
can be shown.. and it will be.
note : I can no longer talk to any family outside immediate. If one day one relative isn't misreading me.. then it's
me misreading them and something always going wrong. I have so much in my head.. I can't have normal conversation and I forget
not everyone can handle it. However. Now I Can walk away and not allow it to go on as we tend to feed into energy. extensively
as that's how close we are.. make sense? I knew I should not be the one to talk. I knew it. I knew it.
and more. it's umbearable to know.. more so when someone who lived through those times are in their final years.
and had the same problems I found the world over. and the same tactics were used to silence their familes too.
it's a never ending chain of primitive.. in modern times.. still.
interesting. let it rain song came on - performed by a lady who could have been misused several ways as she is an important
pawn to those who wanted to use people to connected with. . at times sincere. sincere efforts were twisted and turned. old tactics
can NOT work in the time of mass data / AI / networking

I thought I had better put a color photo out. ( but darn it, its not going to be very colorful !) Taking this photo I got caught. Down a quiet blacktop road in the morning I seen this house and knew that the still pond beside it would hold a reflection of the old place. I climbed 2 pipe gates to get there and a truck drove by and stopped at our car in the entranceway, so I quickly packed up and headed back and my wife was at the car talking to him. When I arrived I apologized, but I knew this was a special oppurtunity and he didn't mind at all. He was flattered that someone was even interested enough to take its picture. Got permission to return also with IR when the leaves fill out. Could of went the other way.This is in Lewis Co. Missouri.
apparently this is the only way i meant to use natasha at this time. she isn't broken, i think my brain is, though. i brought my film to get developed, and i got yelled at basically by the man there because some of my film had come unwound , and the edges of some of my film got eaten because i loaded natasha wrong.
mr. film man, let me tell you a thing or two. just because i am little and female does not mean i am stupid. and instead of getting all papa bear on me and telling me what a screw up i am, this could have been a teaching oppurtunity. instead, you made me feel like a four year-old that spilled my milk all over a freshly cleaned floor.
anyway, the hubs and i sat on the floor of our bathroom (it is darker in there) and printed out the english instructions and we taught me the right way. take that, film nazi!
this is day 139 of a year in pictures, 2009
For week 5 of 52 I had the oppurtunity to do my first cake smash shoot with the beautiful Efa who just turned one!!
I must say ... I absolutely LOVED this shoot, was so much fun, loved using natural light again and the girly pinks, well I'm a girl, I <3 the pinkness of it all :)
Taken with my d300s, 35mm f/1.8 shot most of this shoot wide open or max f/2.5 ..
I have 2 vinyl backdrop/floor set up (which cost in the region of £140) which is the white wooden floor u see here and I have a dark damask patterned backdrop, however, without breaking the bank to get a girly backdrop, I visited a local shop and purchased a roll of pink/white flowered wallpaper and literally cellotaped it to one of my walls, placed a skirting board against it on top of the vinyl floor a here it is, a nice pink studio set up for £9!!!!! :)
I was lucky enough to be given the oppurtunity to shoot at a new, amazing hotel in Colorado. The Black Monarch is a dark, curiosities, eccentric themed hotel that is a one of it's kind. It used to be a casino, brothel, and saloon back in the Gold Rush era, so as you can imagine, with all these unqiue qualities combined, I had such a fun, creative time shooting there. I felt so fortunate to be allowed to literally explore the whole space and shoot wherever we wanted to.

The Monsoon is a joyous time, a rejuvenating force, refreshing rivers, enabling biodiversity. It is also the time when many birds procreate.
The male peafowl, when courting peahens, display their trains and rattle their bodies so the feathers catch the sunlight and appear to shimmer. The vibrancy of the peacock's colors, the length of their trains and the overall quality of their feathers make for a successful mating.
I did not have a camera with me, so I recorded this on the cell phone. The bird was about 6 feet away, totally ignoring us, and I think I'll never have such an oppurtunity again.

Yesterday I had an oppurtunity to attended a seminar on HIV/AIDS conducted by UNDP along with SHE.
Self had learned alot on it and also came to know that 93% of the Maldives population (including the migrants) doesnt have safe sex!
The easiest way of getting infected with HIV is having sex Male to Male...... are these two Males??
It is time that we start to make ppl more aware on these things!
Deer in Glengarry which is a beautiful loation for visiting and many photo oppurtunities wether you like lanape,wildlife or both
Well what a remarkable oppurtunity....... I had literally stopped in Glusburn, crossed the road posted a letter and then re-crossed the road. In my sixth sense I had mentally become aware that this busy road was suddenly unusually quiet....... My alertness increased and then this came trundling around the corner................ Wow.....
Here we see what must be one of the last operating "Low Datum" Leyland T45 Roadtrains on the road today.

Another shot from Sunday morning out with the Ramble with Amble gang. As i had took many shots of the groyne in my earlier post i decided i would head for the eroded outlflow structure posts up towards the pier on Blyth Beach. As i splodged back to dryish sand i nnoticed that it was very close to sunset and began running as its quite a distance across to them and also i could do with shedding the winter flab lol. Anyhoo half way there i was dying and as i turned the sun broke the horizon! Not one to lose an oppurtunity i thought what the hell and planted the tripod if not only to rest on it haha. I took 2 shots here at different exposures with some blending in mind. Back in Photoshop i have opened both exposures then unveiled the darker exposure in the horizon area using a 50& Opacity right on the horizon then faded it back with a 30% opacity either side of the central area. Ive had to drop saturation abit to try and control the sun (must get a Reverse Grad) and messed a touch with curves and an unsharo mask.
What a morning this was! Thanks again to all of the Ramble Posse for being so friendly and helpfull and sorry for uploading yet another Blyth shot as youre all probably sick of them haha.

Today. Today's shot was taken from the Montage Resort Beach in Laguna Beach, California. As I mentioned in an earlier blog post, I had the fortunate oppurtunity to spend last weekend in Laguna Beach, and the place is super-photogenic to say the least. It is likely that several of the coming days shots featured here are from Laguna.

This picture is #84 in the 100 Strangers Project - Round 2
Meet Helen
During the last 3 years of the strangers project I have met people in different random places – on the streets, at the gym, in parks, at malls, at restaurants, airports but for a first time this happened at the church.
I would say Helen's personality and her very elegant dressing with the beautiful red dress sealed the deal. What was even more definitive is that wifey agreed whole heartedly. But as the service drew to a close I was undecided if I should wait and ask or pass it up. Eventually we agreed that I would drop p my wife and kid at Giants in the neighboring shopping complex to finish the grocery shopping and I’d walk back and try make a request. Of course by the time I walked back services had already ended and the crowd had dispersed. But as luck would have it I noticed the young lady, her red dress absolutely standing out, praying by the grotto. I excused myself as she finished her prayers and started walking with her sister. After hearing me out she was open to being a part of the pics. However I had to abandon my idea to walk towards a darker background when I realized she had a big family waiting for her. So we decided to instead shoot a few pics using open shade next to the church as her mom and dad after a quick friendly chat left for a walk and other family members stood around at a distance talking. It's always a little challenging to be in this situation and feeling a little rushed is natural but on the flip side am thankful to get the oppurtunity.
Helen was a pleasure to photograph though I honestly didn't do her justice. Her twinkling happy eyes screamed kindness.. and not surprising that kindness was her favorite quality. Her family hails from Ivory Coast in West Africa - which I believe explains her strong features and beauty. My interaction also revealed another quality I see as simplicity and almost a childlike directness and honesty.
An accountant by profession she enjoys cooking - photography is something she enjoys as well. We agreed to connect again to photograph her in a follow up session since she enjoys that as well.
Thanks a lot Helen for your time. It was wonderful making your acquaintance. I look forward to shoot I with you again. In the meanwhile wishing you all the very best and regards to the family

I didnt really want to miss this shot and parked right the side of the road and bolted out grabbed my tripod and shoot. I was just like kid playing on a huge sandbox and taking loads of pictures. I told Lynette that I didnt want to procastinate this time, and every oppurtunity I see, I'll take it. But at the same I didnt want to make her bored waiting for me.
Although this particular day is absolutely gorgeous in this particular part of the Rockies, it was brutal in taking picture-at least to my standard. Luckily I remember using NDx8 to cut down the extreme sunlight, this give me some fanstastic detail of the rock. Couple of with Circular Polarizer managed to cut down the light to 5 stop.

{Pink Elephant Car Wash} 1/20
I've been wanting to get a photo of the carwash sign before I moved away so this was a good oppurtunity! We walked around Seattle til blue hour was over. Tried my luck again with night shots of the elephant and I didn't like how they turned out but had a great last night in Seattle with my husband and our friend.
The exisistence of this spps of vultures is facing serious environmental threats in Asia.
The banned .pain killer drugs like Diclofenac...etc. given before the death of cattles is the main cause .The studies have revealed that there is 70% decline in population.
The vulture was photographed at Rohtang Pass (13000 Ft ) western Himalayan region , in Sept. 2006. A rare oppurtunity to get this Bird at high altitudes nowdays
Just got a small haul today, I was looking for the new Arkham and the catwoman set but came up with neither but I did want the Lowrider set which I love it, I also got two minifig packs with Joker and March Harriot. I also got the Ghostbusters 2016 set. I've wanted it for a while and today was a perfect oppurtunity, although the movie was ehhhh I think this set is great the car looks nice plus you get 6 minifigs almost all exclusive to the set and some great new moulds for a decent price, so I picked it up. Gonna keep an eye out for some more Lego Batman Movie Sets.
I must thank Sydney21940 for the oppurtunity to photograph these birds.
We had a great afternoon and I certainly got my best Kingfisher shots, including this one, where the bird is about to expel a pellet.
Post-Show
After an amazing 30 minute set, Andrew quickly left the stage and found this corner, he spent a few minutes there by himself.
I was lucky enough to have the oppurtunity to follow him around Warped Tour all day, I have worked with him in the past and having another chance was amazing. Hopefully we will continue to work together.
Even with the long high pressure that has settled over Utah lately, I couldn't pass up the oppurtunity to go out to Stansbury Island. The cloudless haze did little to detract from the desert landscapes and still salt water. I can't wait to go back.
When opportunity knocks on the door, open the door. Well, that's what people say. Today, I had one of those rare moments where Alex was willing to pose for a picture. I asked him if he wanted to sit by these shadows so that I can take a photo. He said "Yes". I was surprised. So, I grabbed the opportunity. What new opportunities showed up for you today?

Pole Dancer: Megumi Yuzuki / 柚月恵
Couple of months ago I had this assignment to take some profile photos of a pole dancer, this was the first time for me to shoot someone doing this type of dance, and we did some very interesting stuff together. Her name is Megumi Yuzuki / 柚月恵, and she is one of the best pole dancers in Japan, she is very professional and also very easy to work with. We have also done some other shoots after this one, but the result from them I will upload later! In this article I will explain the strobist setup of the edgy lighting I've been using for her, and you can see some of the photos below!
Here is the whole article about the shoot on my Website! Check it out! Here I will mention just a little about it. In this shoot after a talk with my model, trying to analyze her I decided to go with some edgy lighting, thus putting some emphasize on her beautiful body lines. So I decided to use my strip lights from both sides diagonally and shoot without any light from the front side. I think this really created some images that show in a really good way her body structure. Then after some shots with only the strip lights, I thought to put some life into the background, so here came the flash gels, on this shoot I used blue and purple, as you will see on the shots I've uploaded down in the article! And after setting that, it was just about to shoot, she was now posing that much as she was just doing it the way when she is dancing, so I didn't have to tell her a lot what to do!
So, what is actually the pole dance? Well, maybe from the influence of the Hollywood movies, but the pole dance still has the reputation of strippers in the night club. Actually it is getting popular as an excercise and something to learn, also it is gving you the oppurtunity to practice and enjoy spins, acrobatics, floor movement and others tricky things! She is teaching students from 16 to 60 years of age, so you can do pole dance no matter what age you are, and no matter what job you are doing! Megumi is organizing a party called PDN. It has a different theme every time, for example doing collaboration with salsa and samba dancers, capoeira, or even jazz and and other types of live music combined with pole dancing to create an interesting show, and deliver their concept. Approximately 20 dancers perform on each show, and they dance until late in the night. Pole dance is a way for every woman to polish herself as a beautiful woman in a healthy way. You don't need to look like a celebrity or have amazing acrobat skills of an olympic player to do pole dance, it can be practiced by everyone no matter of social status and age!
では、ちょっと日本語で説明も入れますね！
ポールダンスはポールを使い、スピン、アクロバット、フロアムーブなどで楽しむダンスです。ストリッパーや映画のクラブシーンなどのイメージが強いですが、今はエクササイズや習い事として、広がっています。私は現在16歳から60歳の生徒を指導しています。そして、PDNというポールダンスを中心したパーティーをオーガナイズしています。PDNには毎回テーマがあり、サンバやカポエラジャズダンス、サルサ、生演奏など、ポールダンスだけではなく、いろんなジャンルとコラボレーションしたり、ミュージカルのような演出をしたり、世界観とメッセージ性をとても大切にしています。毎回約20名のダンサーたちが出演し、終電まで盛り上がっています。ポールダンスを健全なアートとして、女性らしさを磨くエクササイズとして、どんな職業や年齢の人にでも楽しんでもらいたい、ダンスは恵まれた容姿や、ずば抜けた身体能力のある人のものだけではなく、一生懸命がんばってステージデビューを目指したり、自分の個性や、伝えたいメッセージを探しながら、仲間とともに奮闘し、少しずつ変わっていく生徒たちとともに日々成長するのは私の喜びです！

I got to test the Olympus Pen for two weeks for Salt Magazine. The original assignment read: photograph trees. Of course I cannot resist testing it on Lóis too. We had sun this morning and I took the oppurtunity to test in our tiny hallway. I wrapped Lóis in a fleece blanket and started the session. Lóis was very okay being wrapped in a blanket. Good girl. I used the pinhole art filter on the camera but edited & cropped afterwards in PS.

So i had the oppurtunity to shoot some baby photos today.
Such a cute and happy baby, really couldnt have gone any better.
Canon 5d + 50mm 1.4
B800 in octabox boomed camera top right.
Reflector camera left for a little fill
ODC- Photowalk
I arrived in town for work too early so took the oppurtunity to go for a photowalk. I do wish i'd taken the 18-105mm lens though.
Rosemary bags my coffee beans for me and we chat. It was quite a few months ago that I noticed she was quite attractive. . . petite and a bit of a sprite.
Rosemary doesn't work everyday, so it was hard to catch her at the times when I had my camera. Finally, I caught her with just my camera and the mounted lens.
10-18mm lens is NOT the ideal portrait lens, but you do with what you got. Monday, I'm going to print up copies for her.
I really admire her fine bone structure. She is such a super nice person and works like she's in high speed all of the time.
Thanks Rosemary for the oppurtunity.. . .

This picture is #95 in the 100 Strangers Project - Round 2
Meet Dolores
I was in DC recently for a head-shot session and then headed out for lunch before packing up and glad I did for that's when I met Dolores crossing the street.
Her simple yet very elegant dressing first caught my attention - the all black with hints of color with the yellow belt and with the bag adding another dash of color was a great photo opportunity. I gained her attention and explained my request and thankfully she accepted - although she had to finish her lunch that she just picked up. So we headed to a outdoor seating area around the corner where we could see a lot of folks eating lunch by a shared area surrounded by restaurants. Dolores was a nice person to chat with as she talked a little bit about herself over lunch - must say she was extremely articulate and extremely confident. A very friendly personality, with a wonderful presence, it felt like I knew her for a while.
Apparently she was in the area for a job interview. She lived in New York previously working with managing doctor's offices, and moved to DC few years back. Dolores has studied International Relations and worked with International affairs but is looking for a job completely unrelated to these areas. In that sense she appeared to be someone who follows her heart and looks for new challenges.
A very competitive personality she participates in triathlons and has been focused on beating her brother, she said with a determined smile. Her favorite memories are visiting the monuments at night - she thinks that is the most magical time to view these wonders. She views herself as a "hustler" who can manage to get things accomplished.
Thanks a lot Dolores for being a part of this project and for your trust and time. Wish you all the very best for your future (hope you had a positive outcome from the interview - even if not am sure its because there are better oppurtunities awaiting). If you would like a hi-res copy of the pictures please drop me a line.

Downtown Paterson is home to City Hall and the Passaic County Courthouse Annex, two of the city's architectural landmarks. City Hall was designed by the New York firm Carrere and Hastings in 1894, and is modeled after the Hôtel de Ville (city hall) in Lyon, France, capital of the silk industry in Europe.
Theodore Roosevelt stands proud in front of City Hall in Downtown Paterson, NJ.
I was out late last night shooting in my hometown, I seen so many things I wanted to shoot! I only got to capture half of the things I saw, I will be going back as much as I can. I bumped into a few characters who were roaming the downtown streets, I had the oppurtunity to have some good conversations. Im telling you all the times I was capturingscenes in FL not one person came to ask questions or acted intrested. I find myself answering questions everytime I shoot in my hometown. People are not afraid to conversate and thats what I miss the most about home. I feel welcomed :-)
I was lucky enough to be given the oppurtunity to shoot at a new, amazing hotel in Colorado. The Black Monarch is a dark, curiosities, eccentric themed hotel that is a one of it's kind. It used to be a casino, brothel, and saloon back in the Gold Rush era, so as you can imagine, with all these unqiue qualities combined, I had such a fun, creative time shooting there. I felt so fortunate to be allowed to literally explore the whole space and shoot wherever we wanted to.

Ventotene Island , Cala Nave beach
After a long time i shoot seascapes again , i had the oppurtunity during the last days of August when me and my girlfriend went in a little island near our coastline for my birthday. The only day good for photography was the last one when in the early morning the bad weather was incoming... i collected this one just few hours before a real thunderstorm.
The rocks in the foreground were some rest of an ancient roman harbour.
The light wasn't the one i hope so decided for a long exposure of about 160s.
Hope you like it!
Thanks all for your visits and comments
