When you look back on times we had
I hope you smile
And know that through the good and through the bad
I was on your side when nobody could hold us down
We claimed the brightest star
And we, we came so far
And no they won't forget, yeah
Whenever you remember times gone by
Remember how we held our heads so high
When all this world was there for us
We believed that we could touch the sky
Whenever you remember, I'll be there
Remember how we reached that dream together
Whenever you remember
When you think back on all we've done
I hope you're proud
When you look back and see how far we've come
It was our time to shine
And nobody could hold us down
They thought they'd see us fall
But we, we stood so tall
And no we won't forget, yeah
They were just curiously looking the stranger.
“..use that famous line on this one, do it do it” – Stormtrooper on the back anxiously said thru the speaker system.
“…let me see your identification“, said the Stormtrooper on front to a stranger.
Stranger didn’t responded. He just stood there, like a statue. For a moment, it looked like the Stormtroopers were seeing ghosts or visor on their helmets just needed to be replaced. You know the chances to find something from a space sewage system are very high. It would be odd to think the otherwise. But this one didn’t looked like a creature from a horror movie…
Previously in this series: Ro Sham Bo!. If you're interested more about these fella's, you may wanna take a look what I've done with them earlier.
Moment of mystery continues. I’m trying to decide, whether I will show the stranger or not. Well, there are bigger problems on this Death Star, remember this series? Anyway I go, it’s the right decision. I don’t need to see the stranger’s identification and we all can move along, to another scene.

Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide
No escape from reality
Open your eyes
Perhaps try not to work out what it is... but view the entire image to see I you like it. A clue is that this is NOT an object...and rememberer it is three in-camera exposures.
As we get ready to celebrate our fourth year here in Savannah. We remember our cat that didn't make the transition here and passed over the Holidays of 2018. Boots was a wonderful cat who required constant medical attention!
New moon, but with a snowy landscape, and -7°C as far as I remember. The northern lights had not been dancing in the sky for a few weeks, which is quite unusual. We finally got some solar activity and clear skies. The shot is some sort of vertorama.
How are the northern lights formed? The aurora borealis are created when charged particles are flung off the surface of the sun, travel to Earth, and get funneled down to the poles along magnetic field lines. The particles collide with molecules in our atmosphere, transferring energy and making the air molecules glow like a neon sign.

June 20th 2009 I came back from Hong Kong but it seems as if it was yesterday. This city will forever have a special place in my heart and I hope to return as soon as possible.
November is a time of remembrance. This is a time to reflect before we move into the Christmas Season.
So here is a flame for all our loves, all our losses.
But while we burn our candles, our lights, our votives, remember them with fondness, remember them with kindness.
Soften the difficult times with a loving flame.

These days, I don't often share photos the same day that I took them, but every now and then there's a little more meaning behind one that makes me want to tell the story right away before my memory fades.
When famed photographer and fellow Troy native Jim Shaughnessy passed away in August 2018, I decided to attend calling hours. There, I had the opportunity to introduce myself to Jim's son, James. I briefly explained that not only had his father's work inspired me, but Jim as a person had been a very kind mentor to me. I had interviewed him for my senior thesis paper when I was attending Siena College, he was always a phone call or email away for any historical questions I had, and he graciously contributed to my first book. James later friended me on Facebook, where he saw a tribute post I had made to his father (you can see the post, which is public, here: www.facebook.com/tim.stockwell.587/posts/10100524475339363). I could tell that the post meant a lot to James, and that in turn meant a lot to me.
Well, today, James re-shared my post from 2018. I was surprised when I received the notification, but then I saw the reason: Today would have been Jim's 88th birthday. To see that my post was still helping James fondly remember his dad made my day.
Wednesdays are always my busiest work day, with a couple different meetings in different places in Troy, with the day ending with a soup kitchen for which I help recruit and oversee volunteers. In driving to the latter, I had some time to spare, and radio chatter tipped me off to the fact that CSX's B761 local was working in Troy. When B761 runs to Troy, it's typically a midday run. So, I knew that a rarer, afternoon run like this would afford some different angles. Also, on what would have been Jim Shaughnessy's 88th birthday, what better way to pay tribute than to photograph a train in Troy: the place where Jim grew up, went to school (RPI), worked, lived, and of course contributed so much to photographing Troy railroad history that is now long gone.
In this view, B761 prepares to depart Troy after picking up two refrigerated boxcars from K.C. Refrigeration. In the background on the right stands the steeple to St. John's Episcopal Church. The afternoon sun afforded an opportunity to place it in the photo, whereas normally it can't be included.
Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!

This is the same series shot I took of Mountain Kirkjufell in Iceland as my last post. This one was taken about 40 minutes before that one, and I could still remember how excited I was seeing the red glow on the east after about 4 consecutive overcast days.

To all those poor souls from every nation who suffered and died in the trenches of the first world war. So that we shall always remember.
From November 11 (UK rememberance day, Armistice de la Première Guerre mondiale in France) to November 19 (German Volkstrauertag), this week is dedicated to remembering the dead of the First World War. I’ll try doing a photographic equivalent showing places of commemoration to the dead of the great war from 1914 to 1918 from the Württemberg region I live. Though monuments here are naturally dedicated to German soldiers, we should commemorate the dead of every nation that fought the great war.
Herrmann Ott , killed on Oct. 22, 1917 in West Flanders. Found that by chance at the war memorial in Bad Friedrichshall - a very personal piece of rememberance, I think.
Apology....I may have uploaded this same image before but wanted to place this above my photostream and it would not let me scroll down to find it...Flickr keeps changing settings so often i seem to get lost in all their faffing around and that drives me mad!.........Anyhow this is for all those we should remember, not just during the next few days but at any time we here of members of the armed forces who die or get injured serving their country
Funny thing about meeting Abid was that I only met him after about 1 year staying in Pakistan. I met him through internet and he had given me some guides about Pakistan before I came to Pakistan.
Only after a year I managed to arrange to meet him. At his home in Peshawar, I met all the male family members ( obviously they live together) - brothers, father, uncle, cousins and nephews. I received the great Pathan hospitality and spent a night with most of them in "hujra" - a guest house in a Pathan community.
