Langania village, Tantanua dance (mask dance) and the Sing-sing of the malagan people.
Sing-sing is a gathering of a few tribes or villages in Papua New Guinea. People arrive to show their distinct culture, dance and music. The aim of these gatherings is to peacefully share traditions. Villagers paint and decorate themselves for sing-sings.

Malagan ceremonies are the most large-scale and famous of the many events that take place within the malagan culture. They take place irregularly, and are typically large and complex events, taking several days, and requiring months or years of preparation.
While a malagan ceremony is always held in the name of one or more people who have died in recent years, it is not at all merely a mortuary rite. Many other interactions take place within the overall event, including announcements, repayment of debts, recognition of obligations, resolution of disputes, and many other customary activities.
Malagan carvings
Malagan carvings, now world-famous, are the wooden carvings which are created for use in malagan ceremonies. Traditionally these were burnt at the conclusion of the event; in modern times most are now retained, as the carving tradition is now only known by a few.

ZION BAPTIST CHURCH, DENVER. Since 1867, the Zion Baptist Church has provided Christian worship for Denver's black community. It is located at 933 East 24th Avenue in Denver, Colorado. The church began when freed slaves came to join the blacks of the West in the Denver community. "These hardy souls included those that would become the founders and charter members." A group began meeting and chose to organize as the Zion Baptist Church, initially holding meetings at Seventeenth and Market Streets. In the year 1867, the group bought two lots on Arapahoe and Twentieth Streets to build a small house of worship. Under the direction of Rev. R.M. Duling and Rev. J. B. Fields, a new church was built, and the Rocky Mountain News described it as the " finest colored church of the West" in a January 1885 edition. In 1911, the present day edifice was purchased from the old Calvary Baptist Church for $43,500.00, and the Zion members continued their commitment of spiritual service at the new location. The church was granted a $191,000.00 two-year exterior restoration grant in 1991 by the Colorado Historical Society to replace mortar between the exterior stones, and for additional window coverings. It was the sixth grant to be received by Zion. A new doorway was added to enhance the entry of the Church. Between 1994 and 1999, over $431,000.00 grant dollars were received from the Colorado Historical Society. Cleanliness, preservation and restoration of Zion Baptist Church have been achieved by the grounds committee and help from the Historical Society. This has lead to an increased membership, and less vandalism to the Church. In 1999, funds were used for restoration of stained glass windows, roof and tower repairs, and door replacements. The Church is a beautiful structure of stone. Current members of Zion look to their founders with gratitude, and appreciate those first pioneers that traveled so far through the Western Kansas Territory. The Church community of Zion Baptist Church continues to practice their ministry through their many programs, activities, services and worship that take place throughout the year. These include the health education and service ministry, the Christian education ministry, and Bible ministry.
Vanuit Santa Ana rijden we naar Punta Verde en varen naar het eilandje Palain. We brengen een bezoek aan de Dupaningan Agta bevolking. De stamleden leven vooral van visvangst en producten die het oerwoud oplevert, zoals kokos en honing. De Agta zijn de oorspronkelijke bewoners van de Filippijnen. Ze worden ook 'de Negrita's' genoemd en ze hebben soms sterk gekruld haar, een verwantschap aan de aboriginals uit Australië.
Dupaningan Agta is an Austronesian language of the Philippine subgroup which is
spoken in northeastern Luzon, Philippines by approximately 1,400 semi-nomadic hunter gatherers belonging to the Negrito ethnic minority.

A few weeks ago, Smokey came by to take me to lunch for my birthday and to take a few pictures and say goodbye. He's been a part of my life since I was 7 or 8 and I feel I owe much of who I am, to him. When I was growing up, he was the boyfriend who, in the words of my mother, "came over and never left". But he was more than that. For 6 or 7 formative years, Smokey was the father I never had. And, when I grew to a point where I didn't need that, he gracefully transitioned into being my friend. To this day, we talk, laugh and enjoy each other's company with an ease that I've too long taken for granted.
Smokey lives by his own rules and always has. On one hand, this has meant never having to compromise his values for a paycheck. On the other hand, he lives beneath the poverty line and can barely make ends meet. As I write this, I hear a memory of Tevye from Fiddler on the Roof saying "I realize, of course, it is no shame to be poor. But it is no great honor, either!" I think that quote says it all because Smokey is one of the most proud people I have ever met. Poverty is something he endures but it doesn't define his sense of worth or self esteem. Articulate, anachronistic, compassionate and intelligent, Smokey taught me early on that money is not the same thing as virtue. People with money are not "good people" any more than people without are "bad people".
But Smokey, anachronistic and poor as he is, lives, as we all do, in a "punish the victim" society. Marin County, like most places in the world, isn't run by people who are looking out for the "little guy", it's run by the rich, for the rich. And now, because Marin has finally become too expensive to live in, Smokey is leaving for a part of the world where he can live on his meager retirement with more than a hole in a wall to call his own.
I'm proud of him for finding a way to survive and take care of himself in his later years. But it saddens me to see him leave. In many ways, Smokey embodies the Marin County that I grew up in. Before the rock stars, movie stars, LucasFilm and all the developers, Marin was a funky little oasis. Now it's a place where you're either a millionaire or you work for one. And those of us who are not millionaires are having a harder and harder time staying here.
I wonder what will happen when all of us "little guys" are gone? Who will make the espresso drinks?
View On Black - not a very good image, it was pitch dark except for the light reflected in the 4 screens of the CAVE and I was taking pictures while using those Martian like glasses :-)
Miguel, Mário, Cristina, Teresa, and behind Mário, Augusto; CAVE virtual reality demo by Miguel at the future science museum that visitors will be able to visit in the future; quite a 3D virtual reality experience; this CAVE is the 3rd biggest in Europe, it can accommodate up to 12 people simultaneously; don´t miss it when it opens to the public
the glasses are not polarized and they don't use expensive sync gear; instead it's based in color filtering enabling a better quality experience when compared to previous techniques; the computer power and the 8 stereoscopic Barko high power video projectors, with the 3D detailed models and rendering, make the visualization pipeline this high quality process

Whilst being scalded & burnt sacrificed their lives in saving the train.
According to Wikipedia:
Postman's Park is a small green memorial garden in the City of London. It is located between King Edward Street, Little Britain and Angel Street. It was created in 1880 from the churchyards of St Leonard, Foster Lane and St Botolph-without-Aldersgate together with the graveyard of Christ Church Greyfriars. St Leonard's had been a ruin since the Great Fire and was probably demolished at the time of the creation of the park. St Botolph's is still open and stands at the north east corner of the park. Christ Church was detached from its graveyard and is now a ruin on the other side of King Edward Street.
The park was the idea of the painter George Frederick Watts who wanted to celebrate people who may otherwise have been forgotten. Its name celebrates the postmen who work in the principal London post office and the former sorting office in King Edward Street.
A wall in the park has 34 hand-painted tiles paying tribute to everyday people who sacrificed their lives helping others. The hand-lettered tiles were made by Royal Doulton.
The park features in the film Closer - Natalie Portman's character takes her pseudonym 'Alice Ayres' from one of the painted tiles, as Jude Law's character discovers at the end of the film.

How and why: I liked how the bend in the road was echoed by the tracks, and how the rape seed flowers lights up the landscape.
Editing: Removed some street signs.
The original untextured version can be found in the same set. I was unhappy with the over-saturated water and green in the original background but my attempts to correct that left my lovely niece Daisy dull and lifeless, which, I asure you, would be a false characterization.
Solution (short of better colour-correction skills to begin with): texturing an overly vivid background diminished it's impact, added subtle interest, and most important, ensured focal attention where intended. At least that's what I think I accomplished. Comments, criticisms, and tips for improvement are most welcome.
The texture used (and altered) is courtesy of ground*floor www.flickr.com/photos/chromaticaberrations/ who registered his texture sets with creative commons.
Friend and photographer Brian Gudas briangudasphotography.com/personal/ introduced me to this technique and graciously helped me nail down the procedures for myself.

Cloud Gate, a public sculpture by Indian-born British artist Anish Kapoor, is the centerpiece of the AT&T Plaza in Millennium Park within the Loop community area of Chicago, Illinois. The sculpture and AT&T Plaza are located on top of Park Grill, between the Chase Promenade and McCormick Tribune Plaza & Ice Rink. Constructed between 2004 and 2006, the sculpture is nicknamed The Bean because of its legume-like shape. Made up of 168 stainless steel plates welded together, its highly polished exterior has no visible seams. It is 33 feet by 66 feet by 42 feet (10 m × 20 m × 13 m), and weighs 110 short tons (99.8 t; 98.2 long tons).
Kapoor's design was inspired by liquid mercury and the sculpture's surface reflects and distorts the city's skyline. Visitors are able to walk around and under Cloud Gate's 12-foot (3.7 m) high arch. On the underside is the omphalos, a concave chamber that warps and multiplies reflections. The sculpture builds upon many of Kapoor's artistic themes, although many tourists simply view the sculpture and its unique reflective properties as a photo-taking opportunity.
The sculpture was the result of a design competition. After Kapoor's design was chosen, numerous technological concerns regarding the design's construction and assembly arose, in addition to concerns regarding the sculpture's upkeep and maintenance. Various experts were consulted, some of whom believed the design could not be implemented. Eventually, a feasible method was found, but the sculpture's construction fell behind schedule. It was unveiled in an incomplete form during the Millennium Park grand opening celebration in 2004, before being concealed again while it was completed. Cloud Gate was formally dedicated on May 15, 2006, and has since gained considerable popularity, both domestically and internationally. [wikipedia]

Series of GEO76 (6/6)
View On Black, or View my most interesting stream ON BLACK!
During our short visit to GEO76, I heard the Café owner talking about the history of the old house, felt the calm and relaxing atmosphere, and took some time wandering around discovering its beauty by myself... What a wonderful time we had there... Too bad the visit was too short though. What I feel now is the door to this beautiful place is open, but I haven't really got the chance to unfold its entire beauty yet! I hope I can be back sometime soon! :-)
note:
During our visit back to Taiwan the past September, we got the chance to spend some time in this old house which is currently named GEO76. Finished in 1931, GEO76 was part of the housing project to college professors. As the house was designed and built by Japanese, the concept of interior design was consistent with the Japanese style back then. The major building structure and the interior decoration have been carefully preserved by its owners over the years. The house is currently open for cafe, dining, and guided tours!

We varen naar enkele eilanden met schitterende koraalriffen waar we heerlijk kunnen snorkelen ....
Pandan-island, Starfish-Island, Snake-Island ...
We verleiden de visjes met een beetje brood in de handen. Na enige tijd wemelt het rond je armen en benen van een wolk kleurijke visjes die kriebelen in je vingers of die vechten en elkanders stukje brood afpakken .... je vergeet er alles bij .... ook als de boot terug wilt vertrekken en je reisgenoten luid je naam roepen ... r i t a .... r i t a .... je hoort je naam, maar je reageert er niet op, je bent echt in vervoering door zoveel moois!
... een onvergetelijk moment tijdens de reis!

Moonville was a small mining and railway town that cropped up during the 1800's iron boom and eventually disappeared just a little over 150 years ago.
Like many of Vinton and Hocking County iron boom towns that waned to nothing more than grassy fields over the last century, little is left to show humans ever dwelled here at all. Moonville is no exception- aside from an old well, a few shards of old teacups found in Raccoon Creek once in a while and three well-hidden foundations, nothing more remains.
It has long been said that the tunnel is haunted by a railway brakeman, but few ever hear of the Lavender Lady of Moonville Tunnel. However, many have crossed through the tunnel to the other side, taken the short trail off the old gravel path and caught the scent of stale lavender. Where does this smell come from even in the middle of winter when the snow is nearly knee deep?
Local Stories pertaining to Lavender Lady:
It is said that a woman from Mineral was crossing the train trestle, she was struck and killed by a train. Rumor has it that her ghost still walks the area where her broken body had plunged after being hit from the train-directly where the scent of lavender still lingers in the air.
A visit to the Museo Etrusco on the Via Don Giovanni Minzoni in Volterra. Was a lot of Etruscan and Roman artifacts here. Also a back garden.
The Guarnacci museum is one of oldest public museums of Europe: it began in 1761 when the noble abbot Mario Guarnacci (Volterra 1701-1785) gave its enormous archaeological heritage, collected over years of research and purchases, to the "public of the city of Volterra".
The current disposition and location of materials demonstrate Maffei’s positivistic impact, with items separated by classes and the urns distinguished according to the theme of the bas-relief on the case. While respecting the historic memory of this arrangement, an attempt was made, in recent times, to associate it with another, more didactic, chronological tour inside the exhibition itself, able to conduct the visitor through the long history of the Etruscan Velathri.
The Guarnacci Etruscan Museum is located in via Don Minzoni in Volterra , and contains one of the most beautiful collections of Etruscan art.
In 1776 the canon of the cathedral of Volterra Pietro Franceschini found near the Etruscan necropolis of the Portone a hypogeum of considerable size dating back to the Hellenistic period, containing forty Etruscan urns, which in 1777 donated to the town of Volterra . This donation was the first nucleus of the Civic Museum which soon collected many other works found in the surroundings of Volterra and which until then had been kept in private collections of noblemen from Volterra.
Among the various donations, the most important and most important was that of Monsignor Mario Guarnacci ( 1701 - 1785 ), a wealthy priest who promoted numerous archaeological excavation campaigns, which on 15 September 1761 donated his entire collection to the newborn museum. He was named after the museum that in over two centuries of history has increased its heritage thanks to numerous excavation campaigns promoted by the Superintendency of Antiquities of Etruria.
The first seat of the museum was Palazzo Ruggeri, home of Guarnacci, later it was transferred first to some halls of the town hall and then from 1877 in the Desideri-Tangassi palace, the current headquarters.
The first Prefect and Librarian of the Guarnacci Museum is the Roman abbot Francesco Ballani , well-known librettist of his time, who was succeeded by Giuseppe Cailli in 1805 until his death in 1810 . Francesco Inghirami ( 1772 - 1846 ) occupied this position from 1810 until 1815 .
A look around the garden to the back of the museum. Nice and relaxing out there. Warm in the sunshine, cool sitting down on a bench.

This is the walkway between the museum and the house & grounds. It's quite pretty, isn't it? For what it is? (By the way, this is where still two more ladies, a mother and her daughter, accosted me, desperately wishing to know how I styled my very vintage hair. I had more Virginians compliment my vintage style than we could count—it was wonderful!)
For the record, the visitor's center & museum at Gunston Hall is very, very nice. Of course, the house itself, and the house tour, are marvellous; many things that belonged to Mason himself are there.
In the visitor's center & museum, everything seems to be brand-spanking new; it is nicely arranged, quiet and informative...For such a small place, one dedicated to a man far too few Americans know of, they've done a marvellous job. The ladies are very friendly, the pre-house tour movie was good, and the bathrooms are not only clean, they're pretty luxe for a tourist stop (trust me, just trust me and go visit!). We really enjoyed it and would have stayed longer were we not planning to head home that day.
So, as alluded to in the last post, I’m one of a decreasingly shrinking (i.e. it’s getting bigger) group of photographers who has never done film before. Ever. Shot it, developed it, paid for it, et cetera. That is, until a couple weeks ago when I bought my Holga 120N. And I’ve got to admit, I thoroughly enjoy it.
Since I am not Thomas Hawk and have no desire to publish a million photographs before I leave this world, going back in time to the [somewhat] long-gone days of film isn’t much of a hindrance on some larger task. Having gotten used to digital where I can take a shot, see if it’s exposed properly, and shoot it again, using film was- let’s face it- absolutely bizarre. What do you mean I have to wait to see what I just shot?! I want to see it now!
What’s more, it’s a Holga! I have no earthly idea how the final photograph’s going to look, focus is dependent on one person, three people, a group of people, or a MOUNTAIN. Aperture is a lie and there is only one shutter speed. The viewfinder doesn’t even frame the shot! The only thing I really control is the film (in this case, Ilford Delta 400).
But regardless, I have to admit- it’s a helluva experience.
I actually developed two rolls of film the other day when I developed this roll. The first, as mentioned, was a roll of Ilford FP4+ 125. And I absolutely botched it. I couldn’t get the damned thing onto the steel reel, and with the exception of half of one shot, nothing came out as more than a milky white blob. Not a big deal as it was the first roll I ran through the Holga and didn’t really have anything spectacular on it anyways.
Anyways, as for the actual developing, I was hoping that the darkroom on campus would have Rodinal (I heard it was forgiving) or Diafine (I like the contrast I’ve seen in shots using Delta 400 and Diafine), and took some numbers with me for both of those, but alas, they only had D-76. Again, no worries- I don’t really have preferences yet. This particular reel was soaked for 10.5 minutes, with 60 seconds of continuous agitation and an additional 3 inversions every 30 seconds. I used water as a stop bath (30s continuous agitation), and some unknown fixer for 6 minutes (same agitation as developer) followed by 8 minutes of washing. I actually skipped the Photoflo altogether, but that was due more to forgetfullness than intent, but there it is.
Now, the local photo store didn’t have any archival sheets for 120, so for the time being, I scanned in the shots and rerolled the film back in between the paper that 120 comes backed with and put that into the box. So much for preservation. It shall continue to live digitally at the least. (*knock on wood*) What can I say? I live in the digital age, and even when doing something analog like film, it’ll end up in the realm of the digital anyways.
So what are my thoughts? I think I love it. Or at least, I could, and will, given that the reeling process gets easier. You can’t see it in these scans, but even this second roll was imperfectly reeled. And I totally manhandled the film in the process. The whole process after reeling is quite enjoyable; I get to talk to other people in the darkroom with me all while shaking a metal can and eyeing a clock- we must seem ridiculous to a casual observer. Also, it’s probably the only bit of chemistry I’ll ever actually enjoy, so there’s that.

El pasado mes de marzo, Burberry anunciaba lo inevitable, la primera campaña de la casa protagonizada por Kate Moss y Cara Delevingne. Ya entonces, la firma dejó vernos una primera foto a través de su cuenta de Instagram, y hoy podemos ver el resultado de esa sesión de fotos junto a Mario Testino.
Imágenes en blanco y negro con las dos modelos británicas, la fragancia y dos trenchs. Y es que aunque My Burberry, el nuevo perfume de la firma, tendría que ser el protagonista, en las imágenes vemos como rivaliza con la personalidad de las dos modelos y el trench con el que ambas posan. Y es que ésta, con todo lo que representa, es la prenda estrella de Burberry, y no podía faltar en una campaña tan británica como esta.

The Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad was originally constructed in 1880 as part of the Rio Grande’s San Juan Extension, which served the silver mining district of the San Juan mountains in southwestern Colorado. Like all of the Rio Grande at the time, it was built to a gauge of 3 feet between the rails, instead of the more common 4 feet, 8-1/2 inches that became standard in the United States. The inability to interchange cars with other railroads led the Rio Grande to begin converting its tracks to standard gauge in 1890.
However, with the repeal of the Sherman Act in 1893 and its devastating effect on the silver mining industry, traffic over the San Juan Extension failed to warrant conversion to standard gauge. Over the ensuing decades it became an isolated anachronism, receiving its last major upgrades in equipment and infrastructure in the 1920s. A post-World War II natural gas boom brought a brief period of prosperity to the line, but operations dwindled to a trickle in the 1960s. Finally, in 1969 the Interstate Commerce Commission granted the Rio Grande’s request to abandon its remaining narrow gauge main line trackage, thereby ending the last use of steam locomotives in general freight service in the United States
The train currently is the longest, 64 miles, and the highest, peak elevation at 10,015 feet above sea level. The train runs from Antonito, Co to Chama, Nm. It runs May-October everyday. It also makes a moonlight dinner run once a month under a full moon. Every ride includes a lunch, or dinner at Osier, Co. This is a ghost rail town that is only operational From 10 to 2 daily. Staff travels up to prepare a lunch of turkey with all the fixings or meatloaf.
It is an awesome experience, and one that all should try out. Get out, get some cinders in the face, and view some of the most glorious back country the San Juan mountains can provide. Get a chance to learn some history as well!!

this afternoon i found this little guy on my patio. he was a little upset but not too stressed now that he's had some food and a dish of cream. he has no tail, is very probably male (but won't let me check to be sure) and is very affectionate. he's met a couple of the neighbourhood cats who dropped by to visit and they all seem to get along decently, so he may have been living with other cats. he wants in my apartment but i've set him up with a comfortable bed and he's found a few nooks in the woodpile and among the plants to hide in.
i've put an ad up on craigslist and attempted to do the same on kijiji (but that site is screwy as hell for me when i want to post - anyone who is a wizard there, please feel free to contact me). hopefully we'll get this guy back home before long. if any of you locals recognise him (or would like to have a very affectionate cat in your home), please get in touch. i've nicknamed him swayback for the moment as he crouches and walks a little oddly - he may have a rear hip or leg problem but it's not bad as he can jump up on my benches easily.
update: i just found out he belongs to a neighbour and he's not an outdoor cat. unfortunately i haven't seen him in a few days, but apparently he was recently spotted so he may get home soon. his name is sailor and he was last seen on salisbury avenue.
final update: sailor's back home after his adventure. a neighbour a block away found him and called his humans, i just found out. good news at last.

Taking a stroll in downtown Vancouver is more than pleasing. Of course some streets, such as Granville or Robson Streets, are busier than others. More interestingly, I start to notice passageways or narrow alleys among buildings when I spend more time roaming around in the city. Take this space as an example, there is actually a stairway at the end of the open ground connecting to West George Street. Isn't it an amazing finding?
To me, I just love the layers of stairsteps between the buildings. :-)

Madrid (Spain).
ENGLISH
Lavapiés is a barrio of the city of Madrid, centred on Plaza de Lavapiés.
It was the Jewish quarter of the city until the expulsion of the Jews in 1492, the church of San Lorenzo being built on the former site of the synagogue. The name literally means "wash feet", and seems to refer to the ritual washing of one's feet before entering the temple, possibly in the fountain in Plaza de Lavapiés.
It has long been a neglected area of the city. An inscription on a fountain in Plaza de Cabestreros is the only monument to the Spanish Republic in Madrid, such mentions having been systematically removed elsewhere during the Franco regime. The ruins of Escuelas Pías, a religious school, were left to stand for many years after it was burned down by supporters of the Popular Front in 1936. Only in 2002 the ruins were converted into a university library.
In the late 1980s and 1990s, Lavapiés had acquired a reputation as a "vertical slum", with its tenement blocks either empty or occupied by older people paying low rents. As a result, it became the most important location for okupación, or squatting, in Madrid.
More recently, it has become the focal point for immigrant populations, particularly Chinese, Arabs and people from the Indian subcontinent. It has been estimated that around 50% of the population is of foreign origin.

-----------------------
CASTELLANO
Lavapiés es el nombre de una plaza del centro de Madrid (España). Ha dado nombre también a una calle, un barrio y una estación de metro.
En su origen Lavapiés fue la judería o barrio judío de la ciudad. La actual Iglesia de San Lorenzo ocupa el solar que antaño ocupaba la sinagoga, que se comunicaba con la plaza de Lavapiés a través de la calle que hoy se llama de la Fe, llamada entonces calle de la Sinagoga. A partir de 1391 se reconstruyó la aljama y, por orden de los Reyes Católicos, fue rodeada de una muralla que cerraba sus puertas al anochecer. El motivo, según los historiadores, era proteger a sus habitantes más que aislarlos, pues la relación entre la judería y el concejo era por entonces excelente.
Muchas familias judías vivieron en el barrio de Lavapiés hasta los días de la expulsión, en 1492. Sólo algunos judíos madrileños notables (especialmente los médicos) estaban autorizados a vivir fuera de Lavapiés, para que pudiesen auxiliar a sus enfermos durante la noche. La expulsión decretada por los Reyes Católicos dejó a Lavapiés y a Madrid sin judíos. Muchos años después, llegarían de nuevo algunos judíos de Lisboa, Egipto, Túnez y otros lugares de África.
Cerca de la calle del Salitre, en la ladera de Buena Vista, mirando al Santuario de Atocha, aparecieron vestigios de lo que pudo ser un cementerio hebreo (ya que no se encontraron en él objetos cristianos) previo a la expulsión de 1492.
Parece que el nombre de Lavapiés podría proceder de una fuente que había en la plaza, donde se hacía el lavado ritual de las extremidades inferiores antes de acudir al templo. En cualquier caso, sí es cierto que en la plaza hubo una importante fuente hasta finales del siglo XIX. Lavapiés es el nombre original del barrio: la denominación El Avapiés, antigua, es en realidad una ultracorrección de Lavapiés, nombre más antiguo que el anterior.
La denominación manolo y manola que se da a los castizos madrileños procede de Lavapiés, y se dice que tiene su origen en la profusión del nombre Manuel, con el que se bautizaron muchos judíos para escapar a la expulsión en 1492. Los manolos rivalizaban con los chulapos y chulapas, procedentes éstos del barrio de Malasaña. Hoy en día se suelen emplear ambos términos indistintamente para referirse a la gente vestida con el atuendo tradicional madrileño.
A finales de los años 1980 Lavapiés era un barrio habitado exclusivamente por gente mayor, típicamente en casas viejas y de pequeñas dimensiones construidas alrededor de un patio (lo que se llama corrala, aunque su denominación correcta es la de casa de corredor). Por eso se ha hablado de chabolismo vertical. La abundancia de casas abandonadas y de viviendas de renta baja atrajo en los años 80 y 90 a multitud de jóvenes con pocos recursos, entre ellos numerosos okupas: Lavapiés ha sido, probablemente, la zona de Madrid con mayor densidad de casas ocupadas, y en ella tuvieron lugar las primeras experiencias de ocupación de la capital. Hoy en día la okupación casi ha desaparecido, pero sigue siendo el barrio con mayor cantidad de asociaciones y movimiento vecinal de Madrid.
En una segunda oleada, y por las mismas razones, acudieron al barrio centenares de inmigrantes. Se calcula que alrededor del 50% de la población del barrio es de origen no español. De hecho, eventos como el año nuevo chino o el ramadán tienen casi más resonancia en Lavapiés que, por ejemplo, la navidad.

serie amores que matan nunca mueren
Lulunta Maipú Mendoza Argentina
Tibu = Gusty = Seba @
En soled busco mi libertad!!!
Yo no quiero un amor civilizado, con recibos y escena del sofá; yo no quiero que viajes al pasado y vuelvas del mercado con ganas de llorar. Yo no quiero vecínas con pucheros; yo no quiero sembrar ni compartir; yo no quiero catorce de febrero ni cumpleaños feliz. Yo no quiero cargar con tus maletas; yo no quiero que elijas mi champú; yo no quiero mudarme de planeta, cortarme la coleta, brindar a tu salud. Yo no quiero domingos por la tarde; yo no quiero columpio en el jardin; lo que yo quiero, corazón cobarde, es que mueras por mí. Y morirme contigo si te matas y matarme contigo si te mueres porque el amor cuando no muere mata porque amores que matan nunca mueren. Yo no quiero juntar para mañana, no me pidas llegar a fin de mes; yo no quiero comerme una manzana dos veces por semana sin ganas de comer. Yo no quiero calor de invernadero; yo no quiero besar tu cicatriz; yo no quiero Madrid con aguacero ni Rosario sin tí. No me esperes a las doce en el juzgado; no me digas "volvamos a empezar"; yo no quiero ni libre ni ocupado, ni carne ni pecado, ni orgullo ni piedad. Yo no quiero saber por qué lo hiciste; yo no quiero contigo ni sin ti; lo que yo quiero, muchacha de ojos tristes, es que mueras por mí. Y morirme contigo si te matas y matarme contigo si te mueres porque el amor cuando no muere mata porque amores que matan nunca mueren
St. John's Asylum was built in 1852 and closed in 1989, leaving the remaining walls home to over 130 years of history.
This place is a pretty famous site for urbex-ers, but as developers progress with their work to turn this huge site into housing, the floors have rotted away and the finer details are all disappearing.
Not long left until this all vanishes...

The annual Tickting Business Forum at Emirates Old Trafford, Manchester. Piucture by Paul Heyes, Wednesday April 19, 2023.
So the other day one of my good friends Rachel contacted me and asked me to take some photos for her. And of course I accepted the offer.
So this morning (Saturday) I woke up at 7 AM with a light headache from the cheap beer from last night. (damn you bud light!) Went out to Walmart to grab some foam white boards and batteries. I was all set for the shoot.
We started to shoot at around 8 AM. The sun wasn't as strong as I thought it would be, although I kinda wished that we would have scheduled it a little bit earlier. But then again, all of us wouldn't even show up.
The group consisted of 5 lovely girls, each one with their own personalities. I had a great time and so did they. Having fun when taking photos makes it so much easier. Also when they are comfortable around me and not shy or anything. That helps a lot!
Overall I had a blast!
I'll post a few more photos from the shoot. I hope you enjoy them!
I guess you can say this is my first "official' shoot.
