The problem of paper waste is SO BIG it may seem magnified but I'm sad to say it's not...
Used paper towels create 254 million tons of trash every year.
Once used, paper towels cannot be recycled.
As many as 51,000 trees per day are required to replace the number of paper towels that are discarded every day.
A problem, I think you'll agree!

I have a serious problem with Cardinals - whenever I see one I am compelled to take a picture of them. The usual scenario is this: I'm in the middle of tracking another bird that I've been following for countless minutes, waiting for it to show itself. Then along comes this beautiful Cardinal to distract me and it works. Of course as soon as I go to shoot the Cardinal the other bird comes out in the open for a second and naturally I miss the shot. I'm sure the Cardinal knows exactly what it is doing - just look at that expression on his face.
The motorists stopped by this train should accept the fact that the old man isn't going to listen to any complaints!
This was the longest cut that I ever saw come out of the east end of Gibson Autorack Sort Facility. It must have been 200 cars and stretched from the east end, across 165th St, turned to parallel the NS at Osborn, blocked Osborn Street, and blocked 165th St. another time! One giant horseshoe of autoracks...all handled by a single IHB genset!

“Wowsers, Sky, what have you been up to? You look shattered.” Asked Bertie as he watched his friend still struggling with a jar of honey.
“I’ve been trying to sort out a problem we have, Bertie. At the moment the problem is winning.”
“Is it anything to do with that jar of honey, and all these tools, Sky?”
“It is all to do with these tools and this jar of honey, plus all the other jars of honey we have in hiding.”
“I borrowed some from Posh rather than start my own honey this morning. I think it was older and I didn’t want his jars to go out of date and then him have to throw it away.”
“That is very good of you, Bertie, to think about Posh’s honey and how bad he would feel having to throw some away. It does not, however, help me to solve this problem any more than all these tools have done.”
“Hello, Bertie, Sky, looks like the man is going to use his picture taking thingy again. What are you doing, Sky?” Asked Posh as he joined his friends sitting down beside them.
“We have a problem, Posh. The people the man buys his groceries from have either changed or they have changed the honey they are supplying. The problem is that I can’t seem to get the top off the jars. I have tried three or it could have been two, I’m not that good at counting, but I do know that I couldn’t get to the honey.”
“I see, yes, it is a different size jar, I can see that. Have you tried the thing that wraps around the top of the jar and sometimes opens it?”
“Of course, it didn’t help. You try and see if you can move it, Posh. You are bigger and stronger than me so you might be able to open it.”
“Very well, you hold onto the jar, Sky, and I’ll try and remove the lid.” Said Posh Bear as he grasped the lid and tried to turn it.
“No, sorry Sky, I can’t move it. We’ll have to come up with another way to open the jar.” Said Posh.
“Can I try, Sky, I might be able to open it for you?” Asked Bertie.
“If Posh can’t open it then I don’t think you’ll be able to, Bertie. I could ask Buttons to open it but he wants to have half the jar every time he opens one.” Said Sky scratching his head with his paw.
“Well, tell him he can’t have half the jar after he has opened it, Sky. Just say that it is wrong to take advantage like that.” Said Bertie trying not to grin.
“Bertie, have you seen the size of that bear? If he says Easter is in December this year, I’m not telling him it isn’t. He is a bit of a grump at any time and anyway, it wouldn’t improve his mood telling him he couldn’t have some honey.” Said Sky now looking desperate.
“Are you sure I can’t try and open it for you, Sky? I wouldn’t want half a jar in payment.” Said Bertie softly.
“I know, Bertie and thank you for your kind offer but I honestly feel that if Posh has tried and I have tried, and failed, then it is going to take someone extra strong to get this open. I wonder if the shop we get our honey from sells a honey jar opener. Maybe that is the answer.” Said Sky slightly brightening up at the idea.
“That would be good long term, Sky, but that won’t help you right now.” Said Posh Bear.
“Thanks Posh, that has really cheered me up. Which school did you go to, to learn such tact and diplomacy? Here comes the man and he is ready for the picture I think.” Said Sky trying to smile and failing.
The photograph taken the bears waited until the man began clear things away before they too started to move. Bertie picked up the jar of honey in his paws, placed it between his leg paws and gripped it tightly then took hold of the lid and twisted. There was a slight hiss, and the lid came off.
“Sky, you need to be careful when you take your jar of honey back as the lid is off.” He said smugly.
“But how, what did you do, how did that…? Stammered Sky.
“It was easy, you just need the knack. Let us go back to your stock and then I’ll show you how it is done on two more jars, one for Posh and the other for me.”
“But, but two jars?” Asked Sky in astonishment.
“Yes, Sky, I think it is about time you began sharing like the rest of us. It is the only way you are going to get any more honey.” Said Bertie firmly.
“I’m going to really enjoy this jar of honey.” Said Posh bear smiling. “A jar of Sky’s honey, that is a first!”

Ainda sumida...
Mas uma ótima semana a todos vocês!
Recomendo que olhem aqui, minha câmera está meio zoadinha e acabou ficando esse efeitinho "natural", se alguém souber qual problema seria, antes travava o disparador, agora o visor fica todo riscadinho, com as cores desconfiguradas ou em tons de roxo, depois volta ao normal...

Ageing is not only a western problem. People in developing countries are getting older too. Pensions or home care services do not exist in most of these countries. Children are expected to take care of their parents. But nowadays the family circles are getting disrupted. Migration, urbanization, wars and the aids-epidemic take their toll. Many older people have to rely on themselves and as a result, they live in extreme poverty.
Besides that, more and more children are depending on their grandfather or grandmother in terms of care and finance.
On one of my travels to Zambia, I saw the strong women, who took care of their children.
Meet: Elika, 60 years, takes care of 8 children, Esther, 72 years, takes care of 1 child, husband and 3 children died of aids, Katerina, 60 years, lost 4 children, takes care of 9 children.
The problem with finding a good location is the waiting for a good subject to happen by. So the mind turns to other things, like photographing people doing interesting things.

After WW2 , to help solve the unemployment problem of the returned soldiers and the oncoming Depression, the Government offered "Soldier Settlements'. Small acreages of land were given out and a sum of money to build a house and get a farm started. Sadly, the land was too poor to grow good crops on such small allotments, and the scheme was a failure, Driving past I took this shot of one of the houses with the communal machinery etc, piled around it - a field of broken dreams!
As my mates know, I have few a medical issues going back 20+ years, which are ongoing for the rest of my life. They are a little challenging at times but I was really beginning to struggle dealing with this new one as well. Just very happy and relieved that one is all sorted now after my recent op. That was 2 incredibly long years of living a nightmare and the past 7 months, it was a real struggle.
I know the photo isn't exactly of me jumping with joy but I was feeling amazing and without alcohol as well to numb it all. I made it to Sam's flat without any problems but missing my partner in crime as they couldn't make it last weekend.
Next weekend it's London pride 😀 and we can't wait to get out and enjoy it properly. 🌈👠️⚧️🐓
I hope everyone is well! 🙏🌸❤️

As I explained before, for more than three weeks now I have been, if not bedridden, at least mostly housebound as a result of a crippling knee problem. I can still drive around and run errands when mandatory, but it is hurtful and I am definitely not up to lugging photo equipment and go shooting. Furthermore, when this struck, I didn’t have many photos waiting for upload, what with the Winter season coming to an end, the pandemic still with us that doesn’t really encourage outings (the one day I went out, on March 9, on a photo shoot for the Fondation pour la Sauvegarde de l’Art Français, I became a COVID contact case of someone I had brushed against during the day, luckily without any consequence as I never was infected)... not to mention ridiculous wartime gas prices!
The bottom line is, I simply ran out of stuff to upload...
So, I had the idea to turn to some older photographs of mine to which I had, in 2021, given a “new life” by creating black-and-white versions of them for the purpose of a photographic essay that had been requested from me by the Department of Mediæval Studies of a US university. The essay’s theme was the emulation, with the tools of today, of the gorgeous black-and-white photography found in the books of the Zodiaque collection La Nuit des temps, devoted to religious art and architecture of the Romanesque age in Europe, and in particular in France. I’m sure many of you have heard about those books and/or own some of them.
Anyway, since those black-and-white versions are available, I figured I might as well upload them to offer you, who are kind enough to follow my stream, something to look at while I recover and until I can resume more normal photo activities...
Thank you in advance for your patience, and I hope you will enjoy this “renewed” content à la Zodiaque! I will put in a short description of each photo below.
I have shown in this black-and-white series some photos of the splendid basilica of Saint-Martin d’Aime in the French Alps. This is one of the lovely capitals, bare but delicately proportioned and shaped, in the crypt underneath the church. In my assessment, this setup is Merovingian, probably from the 700s. A fine little sliver of our history...
If you have a problem, don't say it to "Anyone" because 20% of people don't care about it and the other 80% are glad you have it!!!

Problem with getting on the floor is the getting back up again.
Looks like normality is setting in now with more people about and places being open. You are no longer viewed as a criminal if you are seen outside of your home.
Not sure I like it though although it will be nice to trawl the charity shops again.
We finally got a *little* rain, but things are still pretty hot and parched. Nothing like the problems out west, but a challenge nonetheless. Happily our native plants (like these columbines) have largely held their own.
Flickr está todo redutivo, isso flopou mais que novela das 7 da globo qualé. Enfim maior tempo sem atualizar, sem conseguir alguma coisa descente, e pelo jeito ainda não consegui mas vai isso ai mesmo pra atualizar tem problema não... a era flickr acabou não?! Nem os mainstream conseguiram manter isso :// triste, enfim tai :)
The Oceana Sirena was docked next to our hotel and wanted to leave but there was a small problem!
The ship was ready to depart but there was no one from the port there to unhook the gangway. There was an official looking lady there and from what I could gather she was either unwilling or unable to push the button to draw the gangway back. She and the crew were having a pretty heated discussion with the crew gesturing for her to push the button and her waving her hands in a "it's not my job" motion.
I watched this play out for about 15 minutes then someone finally showed up who could push the button and did so. The Sirena started pulling away the second the gangway was off the ship and I'm surprised the Captain didn't give the city a couple of departing horn blasts!
I had my little 24mm pancake lens on at the time since it would go down to f/2.8 and I had been previously trying to get some city night shots.
I wanted to state that this is not my house; although I wish it were. When we were kicking around the idea to move to Massachusetts, we flew out during Thanksgiving week to make sure we wanted Massachusetts to become our new home. I had been drooling over this house on a real estate website so we decided to drive out and take a look during an open house. First of all, the house is PINK! I loved the idea of living in a pink house. This house felt so right to me; the owner was selling because his girlfriend (I don't think they were married) had passed away and I believe he wanted to get away and start over. She was an artist and the walls were covered with her art. I will confess, I teared up when I walked inside. It was built in the late 1800's and had charm oozing out of its walls. We weren't in the position to buy at that time (we still had a house in Seattle to sell), but I'll never forget this house. So glad I took photos that day.
Ghosts of Feature Film: A Cinematography Project
This project is an experimental collaboration where shots were composed from a cinema standpoint, incorporating actors actually acting out scenes, in-character, instead of modeling or just being photographed. With Joseph Petito acting on-camera as the main star, I lensed different scenes from 7 films. Each sequence is part of that specific film's larger story, each film having it's own style and distinct types of shots & angles. We designed this project to create a cohesive cinematic illusion that these are real movie screenshots, but for movies that don't actually exist... hence Ghosts of Feature Film.
Joseph Petito as Chris Platt
Jennifer Rizzi as Victoria
The problem with losing weight is that things that I thought would fit when I go thrift shop cruising turn out to be a little big. as is the case with dress. its fine for walking around but not very good for dancing in as things don't get held in place as they should.
Still my hair held up better than the dress did even if I do have a rather high forehead.
I actually like this look and I am a little disappointed about the dress but all is not lost as my wife is on a diet (hence my getting thinner) and the dress can go her way :-)
Makes a change.
Same problem that I’ve had on previous low light pictures. Some devices (like my low cost Samsung galaxy) display details in black zones, like brush strokes that are not supposed to be seen. I still haven’t found a solution yet, so any help would be welcome !
Thanks for visiting !
Sucre's obitsu broke again ... So I played with her head and some ribbons again :D She looks like an easter egg haha
