Memoria Project
Veterans Park, Highland, New Jersey
Stephen Shaheen's Memoria Project features two figures carved from granite, a design inspired by Roman architecture and the Twin Towers.
A decade in the making, this past autumn, Shaheen's labor of love, titled the "Memoria Project"-13-foot marble sculptures surrounded by granite blocks engraved with all 2,987 names of those who lost their lives to the Evils of Islam in the tragedy-was dedicated in a waterside park in Highlands, NJ, 10 minutes from the small town of Rumson, where Shaheen grew up.

Dropping Billy off for his first day of school. Not happy about me taking his first day picture. This was the best I could do after 30 minutes trying.
This is a project that is very personal to me. With a goal to reflect about things in my life by going beyond my comfort zone and understanding todays world view through the life stories of others.
I will this time not only interview strangers but also people I know to have a larger scope of interviews.
Hope you enjoy it.

18 year old french student. Her favorite color is green and her favorite food is seafood.
Her dream is that her "life becomes a voyage" and two words she used to describe herself was "Fighter", when I asked why, she just said :"If at first you don't succeed, try try again" and the second word to describe herself was "Daring" because she could leave everything to find adventure "I don't know how to ride a motocycle, but I would do it anyways if someone asked me."
Her favorite childhood memory was when her parents where still together and they where all having a great time together around the pool. Her worst childhood memory was seeing her family fall apart.
If Barbara could change anything in today's world it would be the "individualistic and hypocrite mentality of our society."
I then asked her what the word "Happiness" meant for her and she replied: "It's the ephemeral feeling of really existing."

Armiriki Stories — Blurry thoughts & flashy colours
One year ago we were comisssioned by Armiriki to design a collection for a series of limited edition t-shirts. Armiriki is a Greek store, based in Nafplio and run by a young couple, born through their will to create a small artistic Greek brand during this time of crisis. The purpose was to create four designs based in how we feel about the place we are born, and growing, which is Athens, Greece.
We avoided a predictable more-souvenir & touristic approach, and approached the idea more personally, on how we, as personalities, are connected to this place.
To us this land identifies with our memories and the people it holds. Our aims is to present Greece in an anthropocentric way, through our visual experiences, which are projected in oneiric and symbolic forms, depicting emotion through colour forms. Our thoughts draw on the past and the present. Color is both the main feature and the vehicle of our narrative while the form frames our thoughts and renders our emotion. That is the reason we named the series: Blurry thoughts and flashy colours.
Friday night.
Friday night, not Saturday, is what we love the most as it is part of our routine. The route back home is always the same yet so sweet while the lights along Kifissias avenue glow a familiar light. It’s still Friday, driving by our car, leaving our friends at their homes, while we return back to ours. It’s still Friday and its sweetly predictable.
Speaking of summer.
A childhood memory-the entire family packed in an old Corolla, temperature in the hundreds, folk music blaring, driving to the sparkling blue sea while merging with the golden sand. All this feels better in the back seat, reading comics, not a worry in the world, because we used to be very young at that moment.
Ready, steady, go.
First it was a need then it became a favourite activity in the city of Athens, no matter how unwelcome bicycles are in this city. It’s not only how you rediscover your city, slaloming through cars and potholes or the feeling of the breeze and the light on your body. It’s the open view of colors on the sky when the sun sets that a rider can truly enjoy.
Sleepless.
The magic moment when the sun rises, finding us still awake for a good reason-or not. It’s the short span of time when sound ceases to exist and the only thing you are capable of seeing is the dramatic change of the colors in the sky. It’s the moment when emotions erupt and decisions are made. Or you just feel very tired and, again, you decide the time to go to sleep has arrived.

Rigging rises almost 12 feet over the deck of the pirate ship treehouse to the top of the main mast. Just beyond the top of the mast, the tree's canopy filters out wind and sun.
Never got to finish some of my reviews (mostly my fault) but I didn't want to leave these pictures unreleased.
So here is the image gallery from the Project Mc2 Wave 3 Bryden review that never happened. Enjoy.

This didn't work out quite as I liked, the ice container was almost empty, not sure if I'll get another chance this week so here it is.
My finished sketchbook - showing the little flag book across the top as well and one of a couple fold-out pages. This project was too much fun!!!

Ross is a 37 year old musicien. His favorite color is turquoise and his favorite food is steamed fried vegetables with fish and white wine.
When I asked what his dream was, he replied: "I don't believe in dreams, they put too much pressure on people and gets people to worship others for their achievements, they can become delusions and unhealthy."
Two words to describe himself was "Introverted" because he needs to sometimes spend time with by himself to figure things out, and "Forgiven" because " it's what I feel when I think of my relationship with God."
Ross's best childhood memory was when he was 6 and sitting in apricot tree eating apricots. His worst childhood memory was when he had recurring nightmares of a tractor weel chasing him and on another occasion him being forcibly separated from his parents at a conference.
If Ross could change anything in today's world, it would to make himself more helpful to others as possible.
For him, "Happiness" is being in the presence of God.

Ok, so here we go onto another big project; something I have been wanting to do and upon pondering for sometime; it's time to get this lined up for 2014. Basic rules are one picture per day and I will not use my iPhone.. my primes will carry the all the visual work. Strobes are permitted and upon finishing the project, I will give myself a gift.... a printed photo book.
Pat and Judy McKelvey, forest landowners near Clancy, Mont., participated in the Joint Chiefs' Landscape Restoration project in the Tenmile watershed. The project, part of the Environmental Quality Incentives Program administered by USDA-NRCS, is to improve the health and resiliency of forest ecosystems where public and private lands meet through a partnership between the Forest Service and NRCS. The Tenmile project will improve the health of the forest land in the Tenmile Watershed, reduce fire hazard, and improve water quality in the drainage that provides the city of Helena 80 percent of its drinking water. The McKelveys developed a plan with NRCS to improve forest stand health, reduce hazardous fuel, control noxious weeds and improve water quality. Part of that work included tree thinning to reduce overcrowding and fire hazards and to generate revenue by logging. Jefferson County, Montana. June 2017.
So awesomely fabulous!! Purchased via eBay for $3.00. Most likely from the 50's?
Now I need to bake a cake!

It's been a while since I was so happy with the final result of my photos. I absolutely love this one, the tones, the mood. Everything! Fortunately I'm feeling better today. A lot better in fact. I've been fighting some inside "demons", and I feel like I'm being successful doing it. We can't always have what we want, so the better thing to do is learn to live with what you can have.
Hope you're all okay!
My son is flying into Wellington today, to visit me before a short tour of Australia. I followed his flight on Flight Aware as he was coming in to Wellington. Depending on which way the wind was blowing, there was a possibility I would see his plane come in from my office window. I didn't, he came the other way (behind the hill) but it was good to see he had good weather for his landing.

Germany - Lubeck: Theater Figuren Museum.
(This set within a set is dedicated to Tiger Lair - Susan who has collected Puppets all her life and is a good friend of mine!)
About a thousand theatre puppets from several continents and centuries prove that puppeteers have always and everywhere succeeded in holding a mirror to their societies. They have used ventriloquist’s puppets, the famous „Kasper“, marionettes, shadow puppets, five-in-one puppets as well as mechanical „smokers“ – to mention but a few. And, of course, they have relied on all the attributes of theatres: posters, props and requisites, musical instruments. All that can be seen in this outstanding museum which is said to be the greatest of its kind on earth.
A fascinating world within historical walls that has already delighted thousands and thousands of visitors.

I still have a bad cold, although I improved quite a bit after lunch. So I'm home today. It's too cold to sit in the garden and I don't feel up to standing and ironing (I'd be well enough for work if I were). So I sat on the sofa with my laptop and wrote up some of my holiday notes from this pretty notebook that I carried on my travels.
