Set on board a deep space scientific vessel called The Persistence in the year 2521, the ship arrives at the site of a collapsing star 17,000 light years from earth. While conducting a major experiment, a horrific incident occurs mutating many of the crew. As The Persistence is pulled into the gravity of the collapsing star, the ship’s computer, ‘IRIS’ wakes remaining members of the crew from cryogenic sleep – one at a time. Can you stay alive long enough to get to the engine room and save The Persistence?

Even though this white pine has been split open at some point, and is also growing out of bare bedrock, it is still managing to hang on. There's a life lesson there.

"Have faith in God,"Jesus answered. "I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea, and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him.
Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours." ( Mark 11: 22-24)
We've had heavy fog recently but only on weekdays when I had to work. I woke up about 6:00 this morning, peeked out the window and jumped outta bed to get some shots! Well, I actually took more than 100. I think I need to go back to bed now...
Initial I wanted to take a picture of her husband who was busy chopping some fish as I asked for permission but he refused but the wifey joined in the conversation. I saw that her complexion was so smooth and thought to myself that I must not leave this stall without a photo taken! And so I went a long way in persuading her so a photo.
Briefly, this is how the conversation went between the lady and me:
Me : I wanna take a photo of the two of you cos you guys look good!
Lady : No la, we are old people, not looking good, you are only sweet talking...
Me : No la Auntie! You see your complexion is SO BEAUTIFUL and SMOOTH like baby's! How old are you, Auntie?
Lady : I am 61... You're sweet talking la... Are you a tourist? Are you a student?
Me : I am not a tourist, and I live in PJ...
Lady : There also plenty of fish markets in PJ too. Why don't you go there to take pictures?!
Me : But... but... Auntie, I CANNOT find a such BEAUTIFUL auntie in PJ markets!!
And she laughed. Finally, agreed to be photographed.
Sometimes, a little sweet talking and persistence can take you a long way...
But I am telling the truth! She's beautiful, isn't she?! :P

Smack in the middle of the Alvord Desert Basin you'll find these rusting hulks -- remnants of a borax mining operation from the 19th century.
Chinese immigrant labor would excavate minerals from Borax Hot Springs and boil off the borax (used in soap) in these giant vats. The operation folded when they ran out of the sagebrush used as fuel, marking the only economic downturn in history caused by a sagebrush shortage.
Persistence. Unending. Regardless of the miniscule, nay, seemingly non-existent results. The honey bee, tiny as it is produces honey measured in hundreds of thousands of metric tonnes. But does the individual bee ever think of this when out and about doing what it was created to do? Maybe I should have that mindset. Just focus on what I need to do persistently. Regardless of the outcomes or lack thereof. Lessons from nature.

They flash on and off at high speed, so when waved about produce a message.
This new version has a little switch on the breadboard, when pressed it flashes the message once. This allows me to just have the message go by on the correct swing direction, and also makes it a LOT easier to get a good photograph.
I'm looking at using an accelerometer to do the same, but it would be able to automatically detect direction and speed and hopefully compensate to get a 'perfect' display.
I paid £1.50 for this Kodak 44a camera in a boot sale last week. I'd picked it up and examined it several weeks previously, and was tempted to buy it, as although I already have one of these, this one had a partly used film in it. I put it down again, but when it was still there later in the season, I decided to rescue it. It takes 12 square format photos on a roll of 127 film, the film in it was on exposure 5. I decided to finish it off and process it, though was not expecting to get anything out of it. I don't know how old the film was, I didn't even know until I removed it whether it was colour or black and white. It turned out to be a colour Agfa film, and I developed it in my Tetenal C41 kit, giving it longer than usual to try to compensate for its age. When I looked at the film it seemed completely blank, but I hung it up to dry anyway, as an old roll of film can come in useful at times. Once it was dry, I could see there were very faint traces of images on it, at least on the portion that I had shot, there was nothing on the first five frames, reflecting the fact that an old latent image is less stable than a recently exposed image.
After scanning and doing some fairly radical adjustments in photoshop, I was able to squeeze some images out of a couple of the shots that I took.
Persistence and the good fortune to be able to travel widely in the UK and abroad will ensure that I remain a major contributor to CRWDP and similar sites. Today, I am posting five pictures from the Brighton area.
Famous Sichuan Chinese Restaurant in Queens Road, Brighton is within a couple of doors of Sichuan Garden and appeared to be out of business at the time of this photograph.

Taken in week 62a of my 52 film cameras in 52 weeks project:
The Vivitar PN2011 is a cheap point-and-shoot 35mm camera with a retractable mask to give a panoramic format. I loaded it with a roll of Kodak P3200 Tmax black and white negative film, in order to be able to use it in the rather dull late winter weather. In retrospect this was a bad idea, as the light leaks that often occur in toy cameras were made much more obvious by the very fast film, and also the grain is much more pronounced than I had expected.
The film was developed in Ilfosol 3 at 1:14 dilution and 24 deg C for 14 minutes.

The first year is documented in this book:
After two restful days at the Wyoming High Country Lodge we circled back to Devil's Tower, also known as Bear's Den or Bear's Tipi, in northeastern Wyoming. It was very cloudy and wet, but in all very awe inspiring.
this version dramatically altered from the original, has been printed, approx. 8 x 10, on velvet fine art paper, Epson R3000. no idea who these people were or why they arranged themselves in this order.
