Inspired by the talented Moody Fingers
I've been away for what seems like forever. I have had a rough couple of weeks since I've been home. It feels like after 3 years that lasted a lifetime, in the blink of an eye... everything changed. My future has been completely altered - at least that is how it feels as of now. The world dropped and my footing was lost. I suppose there is nothing else to do now, but pick myself up and start over. No, I think it's more like Starting New. It's time for me to move on, to find something else, to work on myself, and really focus on this new blank page of tomorrow. Wish me well, lads and lasses.
In the meantime, I've been doing a lot of commercial work. I've been asked to shoot 7-8 year olds All Stars Baseball. I'm also doing some weekend shoots of Motocross, which I have to say - I like a lot more. Aaaand I may be doing a wedding in mid-July. That I am super excited for, but nervous nonetheless. I've shot one other wedding, but it was for a close friend. This couple I have only just met. Still, I'm excited to see that things are looking up.
I haven't decided whether or not I want to upload any of my commercial work yet or not. Part of me wants this to be more of a personal journal of growth. One that reflects my growth in photography and growth in myself. Sooo, I'm not quite sure yet.
XOXO

Bamburgh Castle, county of Northumberland, north east coast of England. In 1464 King Henry VI and his wife, Queen Margaret of Anjou, took refuge here during the ‘Wars of the Roses’ so technically this castle became, for a short period, the seat of the government of England. Later that year the castle was seized by rival Edward IV’s army, and it became the first English castle to be taken by canon fire.
The castle has been partially restored to provide living accommodation, and parts of it are open as a museum.
Previously, in 547 AD (and 500 years before this Norman castle was built ) Bamburgh was the seat of the Anglo Saxon king Ida. The site has been occupied since at least 1BC, and was an important stronghold for the Romans. Historically, the castle played a strong part in the struggle between English and Scottish peoples.
Annapurna Base Camp Trekking is known as Annapurna Sanctuary Trekking as is an brilliant stroll thru diverse landscape and subculture complete with prosperous mountain vistas, terraced fields, quaint Gurung villages and a vast range of flowers and fauna during your trip with Treks Himalaya. Get the view of over three dozens of mountains trekking in Nepal. Mt. Annapurna (8091m) of Nepal is the tenth best possible mountain in the world and the journey to its base camp, which is at 4130m height, is one of the most popular walks on earth. The Annapurna Base Camp Trek is one of the most famous treks in Annapurna region of Nepal trekking. Moreover, we reach our destination by way of Mt. Machapuchhre (Fishtail) which is revered with the aid of the Nepalese for its special beauty and most popular treks in the world. www.trekshimalaya.com/annapurna-base-camp-trekking.php
Furthermore nicely groomed itinerary of the Annapurna Base Camp package, it is a famous preference amongst various outside enthusiasts, from a solo lady tourist to hikers visiting in agencies to Nepal. Many landscapes and convey you so shut to the base of 7,000 and 8,000 meter peaks in a such a quick duration of time as the Annapurna Base Camp. This trek is the combination of easy walking trail along the various landscape, forests, water resources, villages and mountains. After an exploration day in Kathmandu, fly alongside the Himalayan Range to the lake town of Pokhara below the Annapurnas. Spend an afternoon exploring the town and strolling along the lake shore. Trail takes trekkers to base camp of tenth tallest mountain of the world Mt. Annapurna (8091 m).
This Annapurna Sanctuary Trek presents a comprehensive exploration of the most hanging area in the 50 km Annapurna Range. This trekking package is designed to aid acclimatization with reasonable daily altitude increases. Setting of Annapurna Base Camp at 4130 m is unique and fairly spectacular, set amidst the majestic peaks of Annapurna I (8091 m), Annapurna South (7219 m), Machapuchhre (6993 m) and Hiunchuli (6441 m). ABC (4130 m) along the Machhapuchhre Base Camp is the ultimate destination for the trekkers in which the panoramic view of mountains never fail to dazzle. It’s ignored with the aid of the domineering peaks of Annapurna (8091m) and Machhapuchchhre (6993m), meaning “Fishtail” for its distinct summit.

"Avery Island’s most spectacular feature was developed by the late Edward Avery McIlhenny, known as "Monsieur Ned" by his French speaking friends and associates. Much of the world knows about TABASCO® Pepper Sauce, made for over 125 years on Avery Island, Louisiana. Not as many people know that Avery Island is actually a salt dome that extends some eight miles beneath the earth's surface. Or that the protruding "island" part of the formation is home to the world's most beautiful sanctuaries for the preservation and study of flora and fauna.
It was on Avery Island, where salt and pepper meet, that Edward McIlhenny helped save the snowy egret from extinction. In 1895 when the bird was being hunted for its plummage, McIlhenny built an aviary on Avery Island and captured and raised eight wild egrets. After they had raised their hatches and were ready to migrate, McIlhenny freed them. The egrets returned the next spring and every spring since. The egrets and herons return by the thousands to the rookery now called "Bird City". Not surprisingly, Jungle Gardens is a birder's paradise, home to hundreds of species of resident and migratory birds.
McIlhenny did much more to ensure that feature generations had an ideal spot to enjoy and study the beauties of nature and to observe plants and flowers from around the world in his 200 acre Jungle Gardens. The gardens are home to a large collection of camellias. Thousands of plants represent some 600 varieties, including imports from Japan and France, as well as varieties that McIlhenny developed on Avery Island. You will see acres upon acres of bright azalea flowers that carpet the landscape in the spring. Massive live oak trees are prevalent throughout the gardens, along with brilliant wildflowers and groves of evergreens. The Chinese Garden contains a Buddha sculpture dating back to 1000 A.D."

Pour voir en diaporama les séries "A tous les 100 pas/ "...
Concept original de DIdier Bonaventure qui nous ouvre la voie :
la série A tous les 100 pas de Didier Bonaventure
....
In every 100 steps ? It is a kind of advance, a course, a ballade. It is, while leaving at home, 100 steps after 100 steps (that is to say in all 2400 step and thus 24 sights) photographs of what was in front of me.
So, every day, during 24 days, on Flickr, on the same place and at the same hour, the picture of previous the day is replaced by a new image.
To keep the track of the past images, they are placed in a message under the image which changes. It is thus necessary to reserve 24 successive places from the dépos of the first image.
This choice of presentation has the effect of showing the messages of the visitors and their comment on the image which was, for them, that of day.
...
À tous les 100 pas ? C'est une sorte de cheminement, un parcours, une ballade. C'est, en sortant de chez moi, 100 pas après 100 pas (soit en tout 2400 pas) 24 photos de ce qui était devant moi.
Au-delà de cette ballade donc, à tous les jours, même heure (14H), et ce pendant 24 jours, j'écrase la photo de la veille, pour la remplacer par une nouvelle de cette série. Aussi, pour garder la trace des images substituées, je les place au fur et à mesure dans un message sous l'image qui change (ceci explique pourquoi j'ai réservé 24 espaces). Notamment, ce choix de présentation a pour effet, comme pour une seule image, de montrer les messages des visiteurs venus voir et commenter l'image qui fut, pour eux, celle du jour.
Dire, montrer, faire les choses autrement, être soi ― donc différent ― c'est forcément prendre le risque de ne pas se faire comprendre, n'est-ce pas ?
Et à partir du 13 décembre.... à qui le tour ?
Tive o privilégio de fotografar esse carinha no Parque Nacional do Itatiaia, no Estado do Rio de Janeiro, o qual recomendo a todos uma visita. Ele na verdade deveria ser chamado de "Macaco Poser", de tão à vontade que ele ficou diante das câmeras (risos).
Além desse e outros simpáticos macacos, o parque possui em sua sede um museu com muitas informações sobre a fauna e flora do parque, além de exemplares empalhados dos diversos animais que vivem por lá. Há também cachoeiras maravilhosas (e geladas) há poucos minutos de caminhada.

Stop The Killings, Memorial for Cyclist Hits Home
By: Will on: Dec 11, 2006 04:38 PM (149 reads)
On Saturday afternoon more than 100 cyclists and friends of Eric Ng road from Washington Square Park to the Westside Greenway to pay honor to Eric and memorialize him. Eric Ng was killed while cycling on the westside bike path more than a week ago by a drunk driver who drove his BMW down the path for more than a mile before striking Eric. I did not know Eric, but I know some of his friends, and there are many other friends of his from the cycling community whose faces I know. Eric was both a cyclist and an activist. He was interested in making the world a better place and inspiring others to do the same. Saturday I took photos during the memorial. These will be painful for some, especially those who knew him or were there. I am sorry for that. I deliberated about posting them, Saturday was heart wrenching enough. But the killing of innocent cyclists in NYC must end!
Most painful of all Saturday was having to watch Ryan of Visual Resistance lead the dedication of Eric's ghost bike. Ryan is a leader of the Visual Resistance ghost bike project in which he makes ghost bikes, generally for people he does not know; but this past week he had to make one for a close friend and install it at the site of his friend's death. In posting these photos hopefully the injustice of this tragedy and of all killed cyclists will reach a bigger audience. I never want to have to attend another memorial like this again.

Video Production | Motion Graphics | TV Commercials
Here is a frame from an older tv commercial that we worked on for ABN Amro. The only reason I am uploading it here is because flickr allows me to link to it from the CMS that I am using to run the website and its convenient to have it all located on flickr.
This was shot on DV with 35mm lens adaptors and a set of Arri primes. When I pull out old footage, I wished they were shot at a higher resolution.
So, I was at Montrose Beach yesterday, and as I always do, I walked from the dog beach to and through the preserve. And in the preserve was a professional photographer, pointing his camera towards some birds. And I took some pictures of some different birds, and then after awhile the pippins he was shooting. And then asked him about a bird, but not until they were all walking away. And he got on my case for talking, and then went off about me ruining it for people trying to make a living by donating my pictures to the Park District for signs and by taking pictures of the same birds he takes pictures of. And so I wished him a nice day and left, but not before saying, as I have to him before, that he cannot expect to take pictures in a Chicago park and have no one else ever be around. And that I will glady give pictures to worthy folk who ask. So then he sent me some rambling emails, which I deleted unread. After which I proceeded to post some pictures from the last few days. And thought I would do this SP. Taken at Loyola Park, one of my favorite parks. And holding my Park District volunteer hat, which I got from the Nature Center for doing turtle/tortoise presentations to the kids in the nature camp. (They want some pictures too.)
At Montrose where this guy got on my case, at the same time and right near us, there were paid contractors doing invasive plant control. Which is also done, although not with chemicals, by volunteers on a monthly basis. Yet the contractors have never told the volunteers they were ruining their livelihood by pulling weeds. I know at least one other bird photographer who mentioned getting a nasty email from this guy about the same topic. I know everyone needs to make a living, but I also know volunteer stuff is what makes the world work as well as it does.
Anyway, that is my mutter. I know at least one of my contacts lately talked about volunteering, as in hasn't lately and should get back into it, which made me want to write this.
Addiction 5. My Baby!
Miniman is my baby. She is the tiny baby kitten I adopted 5 months ago from the streets.
She was maybe 1 week old and I was supposed to keep her just for the night... Then for the weekend, and the rest you know!
People keep telling me she's either ugly or "different". She's got a tiny head and she has no defined colour, but I don't care, she's my baby and I love her very much.
I think she arrived in my life at the best time and made me very happy during hard times. I love her.
Her official name is Miniman (my mom's cat is called Michoman and she is a smaller version of him, so... yeah, I'm silly!), but we calll her Mina most of the time. Her necklace says MINI <3 and she's got about 10 more nicknames.
Can one be addicted to a cat? I am!
This was like the hardest picture to take! She kept moving and fighting her way away from my arms haha... I love her!! Have I said that too many times?!
et vos amours, faut-il qu'il m'en souvienne ....

About the shot
Possibly my best shot to date, technically-speaking. Only needed to crop and sharpen very slightly. I'm very pleased that I seem to be improving rather than remaining static. Now if only I could produce these kinds of results every time, but I imagine this is the way for many of us photographers!

About the Diana Monkey
The Diana Monkey ranges from 40 to 55 cm in length, excluding its tail, which is of a uniform 3–4 cm diameter and 50–75 cm long. Adults weigh between 4–7 kg. Individual Diana Monkeys may live for up to 20 years. They are generally black or dark grey, but have a white throat, crescent-shaped browband, ruff and beard; the browband gave the species its common name, since it was held to resemble the bow of the goddess Diana. The species is regarded as endangered by the IUCN as well as by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, the chief dangers to them being habitat destruction (they are now virtually confined to coastal areas) and hunting for bushmeat.
The Diana Monkey is a noisy presence in the forest. Its marked coloration allows a wide range of visual social signals, and it also has a wide range of alarm calls, with different sounds for different predators. The monkey has distinctive alarm calls for different kinds of predators, and recent research has shown that other forest residents such as the Yellow-casqued Hornbill are able to discriminate these and take appropriate action.

L'exposition virtuelle Passages : regard sur l'art public commémoratif à Montréal a été réalisée à l'Université du Québec à Montréal dans le cadre du cours Organisation d'une exposition qui s'est déroulé de septembre à décembre 2010. Le projet a bénéficié de précieuses collaborations : du Bureau d'art public de la Ville de Montréal, qui a alimenté la réflexion et les recherches autour du corpus d'œuvres commémoratives, des artistes dont les œuvres sont présentées et, enfin, du Service de l'audiovisuel de l'Université du Québec à Montréal, qui a créé le concept graphique et réalisé la programmation de l'exposition. Nous remercions tous nos partenaires pour leur temps et leur générosité.
Outre l'objectif d'offrir une expérience concrète de réalisation muséale aux étudiants, l'exposition vise à mettre en valeur une série de vingt œuvres d'art public présentes sur le territoire de Montréal. Vingt œuvres d'art et autant d'étudiants pour tracer un parcours virtuel à travers le temps, l'espace, la mémoire et les sens.
The virtual exhibition Passages: A look at public art memorial in Montreal was conducted at the University of Quebec at Montreal under the Organization during an exhibition held from September to December 2010. The project has benefited from valuable collaborations: the Office of Public Art City of Montreal, which has fueled research and reflection around the corpus of commemorative works, artists whose works are presented and, finally, the Service broadcasting from the University of Quebec at Montreal, who created the graphic design and production planning of the exhibition. We thank all our partners for their time and generosity.
Besides the goal of providing practical experience for students achieving museum, the exhibition aims to showcase a series of twenty works of public art present on the territory of Montreal. Twenty works of art and so many students to draw a virtual journey through time, space, memory and senses.

Another nice Detail of the Volkswagen Manufactory in Dresden.
Transparent Factory is the English name of an automobile production plant owned by German carmaker Volkswagen, designed by architect Gunter Henn, and opened in 2002. The original German name is Gläserne Manufaktur (factory made of glass, literally vitreous manufactory). Both the German and English names are a word play on the double meaning of transparent and glassy, referring to both optical transparency and transparency of the production process.

Es tenen notícies d'aquest indret ja en el segle X, quan era la parròquia més important de la vall. El temple que ens ha arribat és de dos segles més tard.
El temple és de tipus rural amb una sola nau rectangular acabada en un absis semicircular.
L'absis és llis i sense decoració. Té una finestra de doble esqueixada al centre i una en forma d'espitllera en el costat sud.
En la part superior del mur oest trobem un campanar de cadireta de dos ulls.
La porta d'accés al temple es troba en el mur sud. És de factura molt senzilla, formada per un arc de mig punt adovellat.
La porta es va protegir amb un porxo de factura moderna.
Les finestres del mur sud, que podem trobar per sobre el porxo, són de factura posterior. Prop de l'absis encara queden restes d'una finestra esqueixada de l'època.
En l'interior del temple es conserva una talla policromada de Crist Crucificat, datada al segle XIII. També podem observar un frontal d'altar procedent del temple de Sant Esteve de la Tor de Querol. És del segle XIII i va ser pintat seguint el corrent bizantí.

La tour Eiffel, initialement nommée tour de 300 mètres, est une tour de fer puddlé construite par Gustave Eiffel et ses collaborateurs pour l'Exposition universelle de Paris de 1889. Situé à l'extrémité du parc du Champ-de-Mars, en bordure de la Seine, ce monument parisien, symbole de la capitale française, est le neuvième site le plus visité du pays en 2006 et le premier monument payant visité au monde avec 6,893 millions de visiteurs en 2007.
D'une hauteur de 313,2 mètres à l'origine, la tour Eiffel est restée le monument le plus élevé du monde pendant 41 ans. Sa hauteur a été plusieurs fois augmentée par l'installation de nombreuses antennes, pour culminer à 324 m et 325 m depuis le 17 janvier 2005 avec l'émetteur TNT. Utilisée dans le passé pour de nombreuses expériences scientifiques, elle sert aujourd'hui d'émetteur de programmes radiophoniques et télévisés. Sa construction n’a duré que deux ans et deux mois.
Debido a nuestros queridisimos funcionarios públicos, una de las fechas del Free Jazz Festival 2010, que iba a ser realizada en el hermoso Profondo Rosso, en el barrio de Almagro, tuvo que ser suspendida.
Al rato de la frustrante noticia, los músicos decidieron salir a tocar enfrente, en la misma calle (donde se encuentra la sede del SUTERH).
Algunos que pasaban por allí, sorprendidos, pudieron disfrutar de unos minutos de improvisación a cargo de 4 contrabajos y un saxo.
Ha sido una experiencia accidentada, pero no por ello deja de sumar... Argentina necesita muchos más eventos como este, que hecho 100% a pulmón, tuvo que clausurarse.
Pero a pesar de todo, la cultura pudo más.

I usually like being home alone, however, I love snow yet it's never as fun when you're not enjoying it with someone else.
I'm missing my Physics and English mocks today, which is extremely exciting, but I can't find the will to revise as I have tomorrow off anyway. You know how it goes, always leave stuff to the last minute.
And to top things off, my boyfriend is working so I can't go see him at the moment :( although the busses are still running, so maybe I'll pop out a bit later.
Took this on timer from a chair in my conservatory as no one was with me to help me out! It's also SOOC, although I think it would look nicer cropped. Oh well!
One last confession - when I took this I had the intention of it being in colour, but only when I got back inside and actually looked at the result did I realise that my cameras settings had been left on b&w. I think I prefer it like this though so I guess I got lucky :)

Dormi bene se mangi bene.
Alleati del buon dormire: gli alimenti soporiferi
Se da una parte ci sono alimenti eccitanti, dall'altra esistono anche cibi che aiutano il rilassamento o almeno non lo contrastano. È ormai noto che un aminoacido, il triptofano, presente in molti alimenti proteici favorisce la sintesi della serotonina, il neuromediatore del benessere e il neurotrasmettitore cerebrale che stimola il rilassamento. Tra gli alimenti che contengono triptofano ricordiamo in ordine di quantità: uova e formaggi freschi; carne bianca; legumi secchi; semi oleosi e frutta in guscio; pesce di mare; cereali integrali o semintegrali; alcuni vegetali (indivia, spinaci, patata, cavoli, asparagi, funghi, bietola, lattuga); tra la frutta banana e ananas.
Ulteriori ricerche hanno rilevato che non tutti i cibi ricchi di triptofano svolgono un’azione sedativa; la carne, ad esempio contiene anche aminoacidi di segno opposto, che vanno a costituire sostanze notoriamente eccitanti come la noradrenalina. Inoltre un eccesso di proteine ostacola l’entrata nel cervello del triptofano e di conseguenza abbassa il tasso di serotonina.
Per concludere la cena tipica di pisolo si compone di un pasto frugale, possibilmente ad un’ora non tarda, a base di cereali, piccoli quantità di legumi o proteine (meglio se vegetali), verdure dolci (al vapore, stufate, al forno ecc.), qualche seme oleaginoso; per concludere frutta dolce o un dessert semplice (senza saccarosio) e una tisana rilassante dolcificata con malto o miele grezzo.
Carboidrati, vitamine e sali minerali
Consumare solo cibi ricchi di triptofano non è però sufficiente: si è visto che il livello di serotonina aumenta se insieme a questi vengono consumati i carboidrati. Ciò dipende da un meccanismo complesso che vede coinvolta l'insulina che favorisce il trasporto verso il cervello del triptofano e la sua conversione in serotonina. L'azione è più rapida con gli zuccheri semplici (miele, frutta) e più lenta ma prolungata con quelli complessi (cereali).
La trasformazione del triptofano in serotonina non può avvenire senza la presenza delle vitamine B3, B6 e C. La B3 è contenuta soprattutto in frumento, orzo, legumi, pomodori, latte, formaggi, pesce, carote e patate; la B6 in: pesce, uovo, latte, cereali, formaggi, patate, spinaci, fagioli e carote; la C in frutta e verdura fresca in particolare agrumi, kiwi, rosa canina, peperoni e broccoli.
L’elenco degli alimenti sedativi include quelli ricchi di calcio, ossia di un minerale calmante per eccellenza, che tonifica il sistema nervoso e combatte l’ansia.
Un altro regolatore del sistema nervoso è il magnesio di cui sono ricchi cereali integrali, noci, mandorle, vegetali verdi, camomilla.
The Stadium Business Summit 2019 at Lancashire CCC, Emirates Old Trafford, Manchester. Picture by Paul Heyes, Tuesday June 04, 2019.
The stones are of a local metamorphic slate, set in a flattened circle, measuring 32.6m (107ft) at its widest and 29.5m (97ft) at its narrowest. The heaviest stone has been estimated to weigh around 16 tons and the tallest stone measures approximately 2.3m high. There is a 3.3m wide gap in its northern edge, which may have been an entrance. Within the circle, abutting its eastern quadrant, is a roughly rectangular setting of a further 10 stones. The circle was probably constructed around 3200 BC (Late Neolithic/Early Bronze-Age), making it one of the earliest stone circles in Britain and possibly Europe, too[2]. It is important to archaeoastronomers who have noted that the sunrise during the Autumn equinox appears over the top of Threlkeld Knott, a hill 3.5 km to the east. Some stones in the circle have been aligned with the midwinter sunrise and various lunar positions.
There is a tradition that it is impossible to count the number of stones within Castlerigg; every attempt will result in a different answer. This tradition, however, may not be far from the truth. Due to erosion of the soil around the stones, caused by the large number of visitors to the monument, several smaller stones have ‘appeared’ next to some of the larger stones. Because these stones are so small, they are likely to have been packing stones used to support the larger stones when the circle was constructed and would originally have been buried. Differences in opinion as to the exact number of stones within Castlerigg are usually down to whether the observer counts these small packing stones, or not; some count 38 and others, 42. The ‘official’ number of stones, as represented on the National Trust information board at the monument, is 40.
In the early 20th century, a single outlying stone was erected by a farmer approximately 90m to the south west of Castlerigg. This stone has many linear ‘scars’ along its side from being repeatedly struck by a plough, suggesting that it was once buried below the surface and also why the farmer dug it up. It is not possible to say whether this stone was originally part of the circle, or just a naturally deposited boulder.
