Been exactly one year since I last stepped here. All thanks to friends who ventured this part of the area only to find out much has somewhat changed. As I said before, I miss going to the seas, going back to the basics of photography - away from crazy multi-row panoramas and all that shit. That's the theme I am going for right now and might materialise in my future uploads.
But that's not the only reason why I'm here even though I live so far away... Now, my life is somewhat complicated. I'm almost 27 and reaching critical adulthood years. I am always thinking about the future. However there are times I wish to restart my life all over again. Start from the basics, start from zero.
Here's a song that closely reflects my thoughts that I've been listening to all week... And, someday wish to play a guitar riff from it:

200315 UPDATE:
- Brightened the skies & the sea a little.
Just got back from a photo shoot in East Africa. The Black Rhino is the most endangered of the Big Five animals. This magnificent and gentle herbivore is being slaughtered relentlessly for its horn. Horns belong on Rhinos, not 'medicinal' shelves. We must stop this senseless trade before it is too late. Visit my website to see more Rhino and other wildlife photos and information.

A goalie statue at St George's Park, "the home of English football". This work of sculptor Vivien Mallock commemorates Arthur Wharton the world's first black professional footballer from late 19th century. Meant to inspire everyone in the game for ethnic and racial unity, it has poignant overtones in the light of the latest racist episode with Chelsea fans in Paris :(

All the local communities affected gathered at this point ... Tandle Hill Monument. @ResidentsNewhey #GMSF
"Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead to the other side while he would send the crowds away. After sending the crowds away he went up into the hills by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone, while the boat, by now far out on the lake, was battling with a heavy sea, for there was a head-wind. In the fourth watch of the night he went towards them, walking on the lake, and when the disciples saw him walking on the lake they were terrified. ‘It is a ghost’ they said, and cried out in fear. But at once Jesus called out to them, saying, ‘Courage! It is I! Do not be afraid.’ It was Peter who answered. ‘Lord,’ he said ‘if it is you, tell me to come to you across the water.’ ‘Come’ said Jesus. Then Peter got out of the boat and started walking towards Jesus across the water, but as soon as he felt the force of the wind, he took fright and began to sink. ‘Lord! Save me!’ he cried. Jesus put out his hand at once and held him. ‘Man of little faith,’ he said ‘why did you doubt?’ And as they got into the boat the wind dropped. The men in the boat bowed down before him and said, ‘Truly, you are the Son of God.’
Having made the crossing, they came to land at Gennesaret. When the local people recognised him they spread the news through the whole neighbourhood and took all that were sick to him, begging him just to let them touch the fringe of his cloak. And all those who touched it were completely cured."
– Matthew 14:22-36, which is today's Gospel at Mass.

I photographed these fish at the Monterey Bay Aquarium on a visit there with my kids back in 2007.
In the previous weeks Israel had began forcible evictions of Palestinian families from the Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood of Jerusalem. Since 1967, the goal of Israeli nationalists - as part of their ambition to create a greater Israel from the Mediterranean to the river Jordan, continually backed policies to build illegal settlements around the neighbourhood with the ultimate intention of expelling Palestinians from Jerusalem.
Taken at one of London's largest protests in many years as tens of thousands set off across Hyde Park for the Israeli Embassy in Kensington. Demonstrators were angry over Israel's illegal occupation, forced evictions, the Gaza blockade, the devastating air strikes including attacks on tower blocks and the international media and the country's continued defiance of international law. More of my photos of the protest to follow shortly.
Well now… what do you think of these fine monkey puzzle trees, more than 80 years old, in Teddington? They’re pretty fine specimens, wouldn’t you say?
So would I. But guess what? A local man, whose flat overlooks them, wants to have them cut down to make way for… a couple of car parking spaces! No, really.
Last week, at 1.30 in the afternoon, the Teddington Society (of which I'm a member) were alerted to the imminent threat of these trees being felled. But thanks to a flurry of emails and phone calls, and very swift action by the Society and the London Borough of Richmond Council, within six hours a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) had been drafted, issued and applied to these lovely unusual trees.
“Forty years ago”, one of my neighbours told me, “I walked my kids past these trees every morning on our way to school. Of course they must be saved.”
The TPO declares that no person shall “cut down, top, lop, uproot, wilfully damage or wilfully destroy; or cause or permit the cutting down, topping, lopping, uprooting, wilful damage or wilful destruction of any tree specified” in the Order.
So the trees are safe, at least for now. But absurdly, what with the British regard for 'fair play' and all that, Richmond Council is open to objections. So we’re watching like hawks – and meanwhile the Teddington Society has warned all local tree surgeons not to touch these gloriously well-established specimens of Araucaria araucana.
Just six hours from first alert to the application of a TPO. Local democracy in action – with skates on.
