This is a different shot from the previous one,which was a second or two before. I have chosen to upload this one in monochrome. I think street photography suits this genre. What do you think?
Again a market porter pushes his bin past the famous Market Porter pub which featured in the Harry Potter film, The Prisoner of Azkaban"
158840 and 158823 cross the Birmingham Canal (Wolverhampton Level) near Smethwick heading 1D12 09:08 Birmingham International to Holyhead neatly framed in the skeletal remains of the L.M.S. Railway Turnover Bridge; ripples in the canal surface caused by the drone hovering around a metre above the water level.
Maybe it's just been one of those days, gut does anyone ever feel like everyone is pulling your life in a different direction? Like everyone has control over your life but yourself? well i decided this picture sort of depicted how i've been feeling. Although i think this is all probably due to reading too much Hamlet and sleep deprivation. And yes, this picture is extremely grainy.. I'm sorry. It's very hard to shoot one handed.

I don't know how large this fellow is but shot almost makes it look like he's riding a mini bike compared to his fellow competitors. I don't know how he fared in the standings but it wasn't afraid to push his bike and his abilities. (DSC_0162.jpg)
Again pushing the old 1000s and and the fuji100 film to their limits I managed this image of 1970 smoking towards Belmont in the afterglow of a Little Karoo sunset. A perfect end to a great days pricing.

People are just so complicated! Life is just so complicated, at the moment every direction I turn to just seems so very complicated!!! Don’t get me wrong, there are areas that are less overwhelming than others, but don’t let this apparently coherent façade fool you into believing that my life is smooth at the moment! (I haven’t got time to highlight the issues, and if I’m honest if I get started, it won’t be fair to my mother in law).
Yes, yes, I know I should practice what I preach, (to students anyway) and time manage myself effectively, (which I am doing with work related topics I add, just in case my boss ever reads this), but people and those relationships, are such a different ball game! And family...Man don’t get me started, pushing water uphill is easer!
My mind tends to work best when it can focus on the task at hand, but in our fast changing lives, there are just so many things to occupy our waking hours! (can you believe it, I’ve come to the library to give myself some distraction free time for writing this and the Liberian has just asked me to fill in a customer satisfaction survey...man o live!)
Anyway, I have a million and one things I would really like to get around to doing, (Work, family, me), but sadly the list of tasks that are directed towards myself, the ones that will develop my creativity seem to always be pushed further and further into the distance. Don’t get me wrong, I know it’s my own fault for packing in too much, for choosing to say yes to so many things, for having a truly optimistic attitude to new and exciting things. Again don’t misunderstand me, there are some really exciting things happening to my photographic development, that I will be announcing soon, but I’m suffering now, I have overload! Sadly some things have to be pushed further into the distance! But I find it so very hard to do!
Creativity has suffered lately. It is very important to me, it offers me some space to develop, to ponder, to reflect, to slow down and actually, “create”. I personally would argue that it is a deep need to maintain our healthy physiological balance. But, postponing many creative activity’s for me anyway has a negative effect on the way I operate. It dampening my enthusiasm, wears down my optimism, puts a dampener on me, affecting all those other ‘necessary’ areas of my life. It would see selfish to ‘waste’ time on creating, if you have no food, no shelter, no security (Maslow hierarchy of needs), but to be honest the lucky ones of us that live in the western world, this is taken for granted for the vast majority of us.
Photography (be it, planning, thinking, writing, editing, or in the field) satisfies that creative urge. With my busy live it acts as a paradoxical escapist development. It offers me the opportunity to inhabit a creative space; it offers me somewhere to slow down, somewhere to ponder the subtler things, somewhere to be me. I just now have to find a way of being me with the rest of my life!
Because no one else is going to do it for you!

"I was angry when I met you
I think I'm angry still
We can try to talk it over
If you say you'll help me out
Don't worry baby
No need to fight
Don't worry baby
We'll be alright
This is the noise that keeps me awake
My head explodes and my body aches
Push it (make the beats go harder)
Push it (make the beats go harder)
I'm sorry that I hurt you
Please don't ask me why
I want to see you happy
I want to see you shine
Don't worry baby
Don't be uptight
Don't worry baby
We'll stay up all night
This is the noise…………
Come on push it you can do it
Come on prove it nothing to it
Come on use it let's get through it
Come on push it you can do it
This is the noise that keeps me awake
My head explodes and my body aches
Push it (make the beats go harder)
Push it (make the beats go harder)"
Garbage rolled a succession of hot singles through the mid-90's. The photograph is part of the original "Push it" cd single sleeve.
So I take a quick walk down the strip to see what I could take for today's daily photo. While waiting for the cross walk I noticed a tag on it. Not anything great by any means but I thought it would make a nice "urbanish" shot for today.
Setup shot can be found here.
Strobist info:
1 430EX 1/16 power snoot grid high camera right pointed at the tag on the crosswalk button.
The wind was really kicking up and I could see my light stand sway back and forth :eek:
At RMU Banovici's Oskova washery during the evening of 23rd February 2015, 760mm gauge 0-6-0 tank 25-30 (built by CKD in 1947) gives a final push out of the tipping dock to the discharged hopper wagons, before setting back light and the heading up the grade to the exchange sidings on the clear track in order to collect another load for tipping. The tipping dock labourers meanwhile take a quick break in their bothy before the next load arrives for tipping.
