This album's name is dedicated to my favourite game of all time Elder Scrolls Online and race of all time, The Argonians (reptile humanoids). There's a story for you to read below about some of them towards the bottom.
What does Ku Vastei mean? Read below
By Lights-the-Way, Mystic of the Mages Guild
It is hard to describe the culture of my people. Often my tongue stumbles as I try to explain, but it is my hope that ink and quill will give me time enough to gather my thoughts. And perhaps, though such writing, I will finally connect the parts of me that now feel so divided; my homeland of Murkmire and my new life within the Mages Guild.
These journals are to become my ku-vastei. And, as I write that, I can think of no better topic to begin with.
Ku-vastei roughly translates to "the catalyst of needed change," though such a direct translation in no way does justice to the original meaning. Another translation could be "that which creates the needed pathway for change to occur" or even "the spark which ignites the flame which must come into being."
Perhaps a more direct analysis should be first presented. Ku-vastei is a noun, a thing or person. Vastei directly translates to change, an important part of my culture. Ku is harder to speak of. It is that which leads to change, though not that which creates change. An important role, as stagnation is a fate worse than death.
Take a boulder which sits atop a cliff, teetering in place. It must fall eventually. The ku-vastei does not push the boulder off the cliff; rather, it picks the pebble which holds the rock in place. And so it falls, not by a push, but by a pathway cleared.
Ku-vastei is revered, just as change itself is revered, for to look back at what was means to stumble as you move forward. Sometimes, a little push in the right direction is all someone needs to remember such wisdom. Other times, they may need to be shoved.

Naka Desh Tribe
by Emmanubeth Hurrent, the Wayfarers' Society of Wayrest
My guide, Names-the-Orchids, took me deep into the swamp to meet a little-known tribe called the Naka-Desh, or Riverbacks. Few Imperials venture far enough into Black Marsh to meet the People of the River, and the Naka-Desh see little benefit in traveling beyond the boundaries of their Hist's roots. For that reason, most perceive them as a secretive and mysterious tribe. This misconception is made all the more amusing by the Riverbacks' boundless hospitality.
We approached the Riverbacks' territory via ferry boats. Our expedition encountered tribal sentries almost immediately. They floated to the surface of the water like turtles or crocodiles. I was struck by the wideness of their faces, the largeness of their eyes, and the broad webs adorning their forearms and throats. The Hist clearly provided the "right skin" for the locale. Riverback territory is more water than land—a drowned marsh navigable by small rafts, canoes, and little else.
Names-the-Orchids greeted them with a series of low croaks. They cheerfully repeated the sound before lifting themselves onto our boat. Neither of the sentries seemed familiar with Cyrodilic, so our guide had to interpret. She told us that the Riverbacks demanded tribute in the form of a riddle before they would grant passage. I detected no threat behind the demand. It seemed like more of an invitation than an order. I've no talent for wordplay, but I shared a children's riddle about doorknobs that practically every Imperial knows. As soon as Names-the-Orchids translated it, the two sentries clapped their hands. One of them pressed his forehead to mine, croaked twice, then both vanished into the water as suddenly as they appeared.
We spent four days among the Riverbacks—all but one of them on rafts fishing. Riverback fishing resembles traditional fishing in name only. Rather than hook and line, the Naka-Desh use large river fish called osheeja gars. Each osheeja is secured by a strange harness and bridle. When the Argonians find an abundant fishing spot, they release the predatory gars and let them snatch up the fish. As soon as an osheeja bites a fish, the Argonians pull their pets to the side of the boat and claim the fish for themselves. I asked Names-the-Orchids how it works. Apparently, the bridle prevents the gar from swallowing. She assured me that the osheejas are well-cared for, though. Until they grow too old, of course, whereupon they too are eaten.
Our time with the Riverbacks was not without frustration. Of all the Argonians I have met, the Naka-Desh were by far the least curious. Other than riddles, they had no appetite for anything we brought. They refused our food, took no particular interest in our tales, and did not even ask for our names. This disinterest combined with their boundless hospitality made most of the expedition uncomfortable. Names-the-Orchids chided us for thinking kindness demands reciprocity. As always, even these small disappointments teach us valuable lessons.

Fujinon W 150mm.f.5.6 lens
Arista EDU100 - HC-110 (B) - 6 min.
HC-110 dilution B is not recommended for Arista EDU100 film so this was a test to see how rules can be broken since many forums I looked at claimed the development time would be 4 minutes and that would be too short and the recommended dilution is dilution H (1:63) for 10 min. I tried that with flat and thin negs. as a result. I am OK with the outcome using B for 6min. From experience with 4X5 film I find the large negs need more exposure than the meter reads and more development with long exposures and reciprocity.. So after this long and drawn out explanation I will continue to breake the rules and use HC-110 (B) at 6 minutes.:-)
I thought you might like to see the sunken boat shot without the use of the polarizing filter. This is to compare with the earlier shot seen here. I would be interested in your comments as to which you prefer and whether this generates the same feelings as the other image.
I also think it also acts an effective demonstration of the use of a polarizing filter for those of you who haven't used one before to cut down reflections.
Experimenting with some close-up work using a Magnolia pod from our tree. The closest one (this one) is as close as I can get using my 50mm Distagon and 10mm spacer, and it's cropped quite a bit, too.
the film is Arista EDU 400, which I use when I want to test something but don't care about the results because it's a crap film. I rated it at EI 200 based on a pretty iffy metering using an old analog spot meter, and I bracketed over three stops. To give credit where credit is due, the best exposures were the ones recommended by the spot meter and were 8 seconds at f/11 including reciprocity compensation.
Developer was my Eco Portrait Developer which is probably due for an actual name. It was diluted 1+9 and developed 10:00, 20C, with 10 seconds agitation/ minute.

The figures are not the united bankers, that much is certain.
Unlike Hercules, who finds himself (and his twin) forever trapped doing structural work on facades, these fellows are resting on the building rather than holding it up. Still, lounging comes with a price tag, namely the willingness to be stuck with spikes meant to keep pigeons off the building. But hygiene carries a price, too. No longer will these men have the cooing of pigeons to sooth them during rough times.
The symbol on the exaggerated keystone is the caduceus, but if you thought that means this is a medical-dental building, you'd be an American, where the caduceus has been misused as a symbol of the healing professions.
Wikipedia also says that, as a symbolic object, the caduceus represents Hermes (or the Roman Mercury), and by extension trades, occupations, or undertakings associated with the god. I wonder if that refers to intellectual activities or hard manual labor.
In later Antiquity, the caduceus provided the basis for the astrological symbol representing the planet Mercury.
By extension of its association with Mercury and Hermes, the caduceus is also a recognized symbol of commerce and negotiation, two realms in which balanced exchange and reciprocity are recognized as ideals.
This association is ancient, and consistent from the Classical period to modern times.
The caduceus is also used as a symbol representing printing, again by extension of the attributes of Mercury (in this case associated with writing and eloquence).
The caduceus is often incorrectly used as a symbol of healthcare organizations and medical practice, particularly in North America, due to confusion with the traditional medical symbol, the Rod of Asclepius, which has only one snake and is never depicted with wings.

Back to the guys who lounge, the one on the right is a mason depicted in the act of wielding a tool while building an arch.
I'm baffled when it comes to the muscle guy on the left. I'm going to guess he's a blacksmith because the objects behind him look more like bellows than anything else I can recognize.
I think they're telling a story about industry and about the nineteenth century building boom in Helsinki.
I'd like to see one of the United Bankers try his hand at either of those occupations.

Snow and more snow. Pulled out the Nicca 5L early and a roll of probably inadequate speed Arista Ultra. I do like the f2 Nikkor, but in the dimness of light there is alot of reciprocity failure, notwithstanding asking a EI100 speed film for low light, even with a tripod. Good experience seeing the limits of the film. Stay same, inspirational flickeranians.

Naka Desh Tribe
by Emmanubeth Hurrent, the Wayfarers' Society of Wayrest
My guide, Names-the-Orchids, took me deep into the swamp to meet a little-known tribe called the Naka-Desh, or Riverbacks. Few Imperials venture far enough into Black Marsh to meet the People of the River, and the Naka-Desh see little benefit in traveling beyond the boundaries of their Hist's roots. For that reason, most perceive them as a secretive and mysterious tribe. This misconception is made all the more amusing by the Riverbacks' boundless hospitality.
We approached the Riverbacks' territory via ferry boats. Our expedition encountered tribal sentries almost immediately. They floated to the surface of the water like turtles or crocodiles.

Other than riddles, they had no appetite for anything we brought. They refused our food, took no particular interest in our tales, and did not even ask for our names. This disinterest combined with their boundless hospitality made most of the expedition uncomfortable. Names-the-Orchids chided us for thinking kindness demands reciprocity. As always, even these small disappointments teach us valuable lessons.
["the tribe is not currently in the game but in the world of the game"]
There are times I wonder whether I am wholly paranoid to what I think ails me. I had for a time thought myself unworthy of so many things. I may have inadvertantly pushed away so many people who tried to get close to me simply by clouding my personality with false identities or simply by blatantly apprearing disinterested in things that they could offer me.
Either way, it would be a self-fulfilling prophecy. The kind that says 'I hate myself, no-one should love me ...' And by thinking that people can do better than mixing with me, I turn all nasty and assume that its their fault for not accepting me in the first place.
The thing is, I know this already. I always thought that the first step was to accept myself and to love everything about me. I had simply thought that I lacked this ability and projected it outwards towards everyone else.
This is why I empirically look at myself all the time. I look at myself through someone else's eyes. I assume that this imaginary third person would not like me and hence I won't allow my subconcious to ... er ... like me.
Complicated? You bet. Sometimes I struggle to understand it myself. As a result, I never let anyone in my private space and empirically justify it.
But the funny thing is, despite my apparent self-hatred, I have the capability to love and have frequently showed that side of me to others. In the past, I have harboured deep crushes towards others, never once expected anything to come out of it. Only in the private moments in DreamTime I can profess a relationship with someone, with the added house, car, and two kids called Francesca and Theadora. In short, my love life is imaginary and does not exist in any shape or form in RealTime. Why? Because I don't deserve to be loved.
But I have tried. One several occassions actually. I have tried to form relationship with people. Relationship where I shared practically everything. But often its never enough. And when it fails, the self-resentment fuels the already broken heart into something more damaging and I end up more bitter and screwed-up than before.
A couple of days ago I got told that I don't have empathy for anything. This was told to be by someone I have tried my level best to get him to love me. This was someone I cared deeply about and I felt that I gave everything I got. It wasn't enough and I came away with the familial feeling of being incapable of being loved.
So what do I do? A huge part of me teels me to give up. Accept the fact that I have to forget the notions of ever feeling a passionate kiss or be the recipient of a bouquet. I am perhaps just tired of constantly giving bits of myself to everyone and hoping for some sort of reciprocity.
In the end, perhaps, living out my fantasies in DeamTime. Heck, I can even be beautiful in there ...

#57. Another refraction pattern of light through glass.
For new viewers: these are analog images of the refraction patterns of light passing through textured glass objects. The glass used for this one is clear so I have introduced colour by inserting coloured optical filters into the light beam. The image is captured directly on to 35mm film, no camera lens is used ( this is a photogram using film instead of photographic paper). No Photoshop is used only Picasa2 for alignment and cropping. The negative film was lab processed and a print scanned for uploading.
The remains of Jones Bridge along the Chattahoochee River. Indicated exposure 1 seconds at f/22, shot at 2 seconds to compensate for reciprocity failure. Film- Kodak Ektar 100

A look into one of the closed off cell blocks at Eastern State Penitentiary. Some of the cell blocks at the prison have been cleaned up and made safe so visitors can tour them but this one remains in its original state. The structure is located on Fairmont Avenue in Philadelphia Pennsylvania and was built in 1829 and closed in 1971 remaining abandoned for several decades before being re-opened to the public as a history museum. A great, tripod friendly, place to spend a full day of photography.

This morning was my last session of physical therapy. My knee is healing very well and is strengthened where I can stand up, sit, walk (but not run or jog or climb too many stairs) ; and moving forward, the rest is up to me. I’m in the market for a recumbent bike for home so I can continue working the knee daily. I do go for walks in the early morning hours on most days but the bike will be stationary so I won’t have to go far to get a workout. I also won’t have far to go to the kitchen for coffee. (Lately it’s been hot cocoa).
Before I left PT the team wanted a picture with me. These guys have been my coaches, trainers, and wonderful friends.
As some of you know, I don’t mind sharing some of my personal life. Life is filled with challenges and venting is one way of easing the tension. Sometimes getting something off of your mind is just what the doctor ordered.
For me, I love interacting with people, especially those with whom I get close to. And that’s where we share some of our lives with each other. And these guys are no different. Each one I got to know very well. You see, sharing who we are is where we made a connection. A personal connection that I know I’ll cherish from now on. We’re not interested in the most personal things, but more on who we are as an individual. As a person. As a human being. As Friends! Friends are the family that we choose for ourselves.
It reminds me of how Jesus had His circle of friends (disciples). There were some who hung around with Him who had a connection with Him but weren’t as close as the three with whom He spent more time with. Peter, James, and John were His closest friends. They were the ones He shared His heart with. Friends who were willing to stand up for Him on certain occasions. None the less, they were more than just acquaintances, they were the epitome of friends.
Throughout my life I have met many friends. Many were acquaintances, while others were more long term friends, and some were friends I may never see or hear from again. Many were social friends, while others I was really close to. Some are Flickr friends!
With each one there was a mutual respect. And the degree of reciprocity helped with the friendship.
These guys I’ll be keeping in touch with. One of them is expecting a baby in April and I’ll be keeping in touch with her. We always seemed to be gleaning something from one another.
Anyway, on the front row, from my right to left are Tyler, and Neha.
On the back row from my right to left are, Bree, Kaitlyn, Jess, and Lennara. And me in the middle…..
Thank you guys for getting me to where I am today.
I’ll stop by to see them from time to time when I’ll be coming from one of my doctors appointment. (I’m keeping the same doctors in the Dallas area. I have a great relationship with them).

This shot is another of Posforth Gill Falls. It was taken with a neutral density filter which made the exposure longer than it would have been otherwise (120 seconds), hence the motion blur in the water.
