The Big Questions hosted by Nicky Campbell on BBC One!

Question: who can sit still waiting longer – Rick or the Great Blue Heron?

 

Answer: Great Blue Heron.... by a long shot.

 

I sat on the river bank 2.5 hours waiting for this beautiful GBH to lift it's wings, flap, preen, do anything for heaven's sake. Nada. Nothing. S/he didn't even move his/her friggin feet! The most I got was a slight turn of the head. That was it for 2.5 hours until the light got too dim to stay any longer. (Well, actually, the wind ruffled the feathers, if that counts.)

 

I couldn’t figure out how the legs were tucked up under him/her. If someone can tell me the gender I’d appreciate it. When I look in my bird book it isn’t very helpful.

 

In any case, it was beautiful to meditate down on the river bank with him/her while the sun went down.

Chatting with my companion after I've finished the Mystery City video, he snaps some pictures on his phone. This one put me in mind of a Squeeze song.

I hope you have the holiday season related to YOUR taste - mine is to make music: visit my blog at flickrcomments.wordpress.com/2013/12/24/radio-days/

 

The Question Block from Super Mario Bros. for Nintendo. It's the same all around except the bottom and also completely hollow. Made for the GamerLUG display for Brickworld Chicago 2017.

Human attention is an amazing phenomenon! It can be taken away, distracted for a while, concentrated on the unimportant or collected in a beam ... It can be scattered. We live in a time when there is a phenomenon such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). While psychologists and other specialists are trying to answer many questions related to it, some see IT as an opportunity ...

In photography, this can also be used for good. How? It is only necessary to ask the CORRECT QUESTION!

Seen at Buffalo Point in the Buffalo River Wilderness Area.

under the skies that transcend billions of universes,

the outsized elephant-room of questions & secrets;

deepak ` the lightwriter's canvas broach in open.

 

we read our dread, Who if I cried out would hear me?

 

mind the stillness-mat viz; feelings get encroached; at

first, you praise their dress, then you get ash-dressed.

'ours' keeps breaking - ourselves, within our perimeter.

bully / pulpit alters us; diminishes sickle consciousness.

betwixt the micro spaces of conversation / correctness,

a certain static silence had enshrined in - just all over.

 

harbinger of tenuous assumptions kept on ossifying

into the experiments with musts, doubts, turncoats.

approvers bare intimacy that bears inching eyes;

and when one is completely inside one's perfidy,

a cover-up mindset suborns a hushed horizon —

pretends - the decisions had been difficult. 'yes'

— deserts us in a forgetting curve that reminds us,

of sti-ff-ness between us, culturing the same sky.

take over air consternates us-sets dreams on fire.

formless hubris viz debris, give themselves to gust

to be e'er scattered betwixt this/that; bedraggled.

 

zeroing in, insecurity at the heart of human constructs

the displaced shoes let you see, the surface of yore.

a long haul to dig and find, the great heart of our past.

no spin here, to foresee, real ground under our feet.

unchopping a tree, perched on wasteland, silences..

a thousand mile stare, ensouls thousand silhouettes:

anagram—breathy.ed each other to the bridging truth;

and learnedness, endlessly multiplied with curtain call.

 

where e g /oquence isolates honest assessment, not

being one of their chiliad/st.ic quarters isn't isolation.

not a diminishment, if being exercised more fully -

- truth's episodic memory is tender and unwavering;

ongoing procedure of days - = - simply transformative,

to rain align, all the absorbed moments of illumination.

bathed in light, friendships bear holistic temperament

alert, alert, alter! “after the game is before the game”.

 

tales shine in via our window of thousand caresses,

where you are sewing a blouse that feeds the spine.

tender paws & sky-ball inside, dashing out of a conch;

over tears-coasts, the white expanse, so kind & clear.

coconut chirping an intrinsic and glorious awakening.

rose dew here, and trouble talk lies beyond the map.

the truth is made real through servitude in affection.

psithurism of intimate revelations recalls clutched keys;

the key did turn. everywhere you turn is full of wonder.

awed to see - the shift inside, shifts deep garden state!

how did a blackbird of the milky way land up here,

that joy glistens in the kaleidoscopic, tent•i•er eyes.

how else to truly trace this landscape of provenance,

a cat following a radiant butterfly to the ringing bells.

 

              ※

 

        India ▪ that is Bhāratam

   a quiet 'photo meditation' and a poem

     to read in the quiet of your days.

   and share as we gather around what we love.

Note********************************************************************************

 

I just got back from the zoo and right now I'm one tired lady. I have to cook dinner and feed my dogs but I will be returning to Flickr to see as many of your beautiful picture's possible. Thanks so much for everything! You my friends are the best. I hope you have a really nice weekend and Labor Day Holiday. Hugs!

 

I ran into this little squirrel when I was going up the jungle path at the zoo. He or she was very interested in me and my backpack. I think the thought of food was on his or hers mind. It was really shaded where the little squirrel decided to stop and take a look at me. A sidway glance told me to be as still as possible so I could get a picture of him or her. I had troubles getting the shot because I had too large of a lens on my camera. Anyway this isn't the best picture but I still liked it enough to post it. The little squirrel was so cute. The photo is uncropped.

I ask a lot of questions to myself believing that the kind of questions you ask determine somehow the kind of life you lead. Perhaps it can be also true for my photographic work.

 

QTM n˚ 1 │ Is there a consistency in my work?

Basking in the evening sunlight.

A couple of days ago I was a question or should I say I was requested to post photos of what would be wearing over the past few days, The kind of outfits to do housework, shopping and how I would dress if I was full time.

I was going to go all practical but then decided that those photos would be contrived because that's not how I would dress for the most part. I don't do normal casual clothes all the time. Yes they have a time and a place normally down to job to undertake, environment, and lack of anything else to wear.

So this was yesterdays outfit. I did the washing and hung it out, then went into town to get my shoes re-heeled, Returned home got washing in and put it away then cooked dinner all in this outfit, So pleased I wore the sweater as it was blooming chilly.

The world would be much brighter, if we were much kinder.

Does this outfit look alright???

Good morning everyone and I hope you had a nice weekend. As the the title indicates, presented today are my first pics of a Question Mark (Polygonia interrogationis). I know, kind of late in the season, but unlike the Eastern Comma, Autumn is usually my best chance to photograph one of these.

 

Seen here is what is known as the winter form as evident by the orange hind wings, which in the summer form are dark. Almost black.

 

Just three pics, of which the other two can be found in the comment section and my stream. Both are lateral shots of which one was taken using the flash. Something I rarely ever do for fear of hurting the butterfly, but did in this case only because of the long distance between me and the butterfly, and it was perched in heavy shade at the time. Otherwise I don't recommend using a flash when photographing butterflies, or any insect. Especially if you're very close.

 

Thank you for stopping by...and I hope you have a truly great day and week. And Happy Columbus Day to those of you living in the United States.

The brief and questions I gave myself for this project were:

if I truly had to design my very own craft what would I want it to look like?

As a pilot, what kind of tech would I want to see in the cockpit?

What real life scenario could I incorporate making it a unique experience?

If I needed it repaired/ refueled, would I have the correct gear?

Could I build in real safety features?

What if I crashed in a remote place and needed to survive?

Can I challenge myself from a builders persepctive using parts that hardly ever come out to play?

Could I revisit my stickering techniques on such a small build?

My answers were:

I wanted something that visually had a very aerodynamic shape that looked like it was moving even when stationery, it had to have a unique "skin" that set it apart from any of my previous builds. Plus been a Starfighter, it had to be equipped with lots of weapons, that could shoot any enemy in any direction. If I wanted to be able to end a mission I could just inject and still tell the tale to my mates. My wishlist for this very personal project was, make it truly mine!

Over 80 hours of building and experimental phases was a challenge, only as its 16 x 35 studs and 9-in height, made it rather difficult to integrate not only the many play features but the final balance display stand. Ive truly enjoyed the Jam, guys you are all my hero`s, such a wonderful creative bunch. Thank you kindly to the organization of this great contest! Over &-Out

Ok, so at least 2 characters (or so remaining) for Paradox Force/Grey Cop series. Looking for character building and matches, along with some powers/personalities/backstories etc.

 

The top left is unrelated to these 2, the face (left 1) is a new face for Grey Cop, while the Hydra agent's (left 2) is a torso for a supporting character for the series.

 

So down below the grey, slightly orange, armored torso, has 2 faces. The bearded one and a Hydra agent's face. Also missing the legs/hips. Which face is suitable for him? The bearded one is quite good in my opinion, but I was considering him for Rick Flagg, while the Hydra agent is also a good choice. This guy I came up with is a doctor, somewhat (Irish?), and also he used to be a prisoner until our heroes came to look for him, couldn't think after that.

 

The second one is a white torso, some black pants, pretty simple, though I could think of changing his pants for something high-tech, still in the same color. He'll be the one that uses power gauntlets. Got the brown hair and the Star Wars face for him, he kind of looks like Coulson to me, so (coincidence?!). The face on the right has 2 hair options, either a black hair or a slick brown hair also from the Hydra agent. The story of this guy is that he's an agent once, but works on his own, is good at tech and stuff, secretly good at knives. His identity is pretty mysterious as no one knows his first name, but only his last, so needing options here.

 

I've tried many combos, but some work and some don't, still in between the line of making and finalising the product.

 

Comment below for suggestions, just come up with what you can.

Me: What are you doing, Skye?

Skye: Silly question, I'm on the lookout of course!

Me: Are you looking for anything in particular?

Skye: Didn't you hear?

Me: Hear what?

Skye: I need to hand over the reins! The talk is all over the 52WFD. I amazed you didn't hear about it. So I'm looking for a worthy successor

Me: Silly dog, you don't need to hand over the reins. I'm not going to do 52WFD with just some random dog. We're into this together, just you and me

Skye: And mom and the kids??

Me: Sure, they are in too

Skye: Phew, I'm glad to hear that! I like it in the 52WFD!!

"I always wonder why

birds stay

in the same place

when they can fly

anywhere on the earth.

Then I ask myself

the same question."

The title for this picture could be: "Sitting bear with a question in his mind".

I've got to get to you first

Before they do

It's just a question of time

Before they lay their hands on you

And make you just like the rest

I've got to get to you first

It's just a question of time

Who will sit here?

What is the purpose of having a chair outside the store?

Why is an empty chair so appealing to a photographer?

 

These are questions about an empty chair. How about questions about photography?

 

What would you do to create a new vision (having new light in my words) for your photography?

 

- use a new camera, new lens or any piece of new gear?

- learn new photo editing software or new digital darkroom techniques?

- read a book by photography master?

- shooting the same subject again and again without doing anything else?

- anything else you may suggest?

 

Have a great Tuesday!

 

This is just an empty chair outside a store in Steveston Village.

To see through, or not to see through, that is the question!
