When Destiny Deacon (1955-2024) died earlier this year, Australia lost a truly original photographic artist. As you can see from the scope of her work in the NGV, she was as prolific as she was creative. www.ngv.vic.gov.au/explore/collection/artist/9337/

Like Michael Cook. she was from Queensland - specifically working in the Torres Strait Islands. The work I've photographed above is a cultural reference to the story of the Wizard of Oz, but from a black perspective. Oz has long been a nickname for Australia. In most of her work she makes use of black dolls to represent indigenous people. Some of these carefully crafted photographs have shock value, and others are just beautiful with a story to tell.

An activist on Lambeth Bridge concerned over the possible consequences from catastrophic climate change.

Never has the issue of climate change been more urgent. The most recent IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) report, published on 4 April 2022, stated that drastic action was needed immediately in order to prevent a climate catastrophe that would mean millions becoming refugees and millions more suffering from malnutrition and famine.

This would require an immediate halt to any investment in or expansion of fossil fuel production. However, despite the stark warning, the UK government is determined to continue investment in North Sea oil and gas, seemingly dedicated to accelerating climate change..

Professor Jim Skea, co-chair of the working group at the IPCC responsible for determining the best measures for mitigating climate change, declared "It's now or never, if we want to limit global warming to 1.5C. Without immediate and deep emissions reductions across all sectors, it will be impossible.'

Realising that years of petitioning and protests had failed to persuade the British government of the need for immediate and profound measures to reduce emissions, Extinction Rebellion decided to launch a week of direct action across Britain. In London, this started on the weekend of 9 and 10 April, with climate change activists marching through central London, for two days of protests which included sit down blockades of Vauxhall and Lambeth bridges. On Lambeth Bridge a group of doctors and nurses refused to leave and were arrested by the police.

According to the group website Doctorsforxr.com, 'Doctors for Extinction Rebellion is a doctors' collective who, appreciating that climate change is an impending public health catastrophe, have decided to undertake civil disobedience with Extinction Rebellion.

,, Scared Abandoned Puppy ,, by Jon

Abandoned Abused Street Dogs.

Alright I'll walk y'all through this photo.

The Zoomer, Mama and Mr Rocky were way

out in front of me as we did our morning routine.

They arrived at The Spirit House a couple minutes

ahead of me. Viscous barking was heard but not from

any of my crew. A rather small bark continued to repeat

urgency, anger, scared to death, terrified, frightened of the

world, help, confusion, please don't eat me, stay away I bite!

As I approached it was easy to see a very skinny malnourished

abandoned puppy was absolutely terrified of three monster dogs.

Rocky and Mama laid down right where Rocky is standing.

The Zoomer stayed up on the stairs curiously watching the

little scared puppy. When I finally arrived Mama and Rocky

kept looking up the stairs at the puppy then back at me as

if asking me just what do we do now ? Sitting down next to

Rocky and Mama I placed a gentle hand on both dogs then

sent out a sharp whistle directed at The Zoomer. So just why

did I send out a whistle ? Easy, I knew at that point the puppy

would either take flight or fight soon as The Zoomer moved !

FYI -

Mama, Rocky and myself are sitting next to the nearest

blue cement post so there was plenty of room for the

puppy to make a fast escape down the stairs and

back out into the jungle. And that is exactly the

move the scared, malnourished puppy did.

Obviously some pinhead dumped another

innocent puppy in the jungle to suffer at

the claws an jaws of many aggressive

beasts that take up residence here

in this brutal unforgiving jungle !

I try my best but can only do

what I can with what I have.

Saving the world one dog

at a time is challenging.

As you can see the

one dog theory

turned into

many ..;-)

Today is Saturday and supplies are being

made ready for tomorrows run out to

The Monkey Temple in order to

care for all the temple dogs.

Thank y'all for your on going support .....;-)

Thank You.

We bumped in to an altercation in the streets, which thankfully culminated in a shouting match and these two youths climbing up a garage. My name's Bennett and I'm not innit.

This was a rare leopard that didn't get scared of humans. It exhibited tiger-like behaviour - walking on the road, spraying its scent, etc.

Esta foto no habria sido posible sin que Iris no le echara narices a recostarse sobre esa pared grasienta y llena de telarañas de cocina abandonada, que mas bien parecia la de un matadero.

Gracias Iris por esta toma y las proximas.

Meet our new Georgia boy, a rescued, poultry-friendly Great Pyrenees named Granger. (His shelter name was Churchill). Thanks so much to Chrissie of Home at Last Dog Rescue. She saw how shut-down and shy Granger was, remembered Mouse's story, and dropped us a line. Thanks also to the rescue people in Georgia who got him out of a jam.

We picked him up and signed the papers yesterday. He's seen here (yesterday) hiding under a bare, two-inch lilac branch, hoping I'll go away. He let me touch him out in the open today for the first time. His terror and his struggle not to flee were palpable and painful. Shy dogs are the bravest dogs of all, I believe.

Granger came from a bad situation in Georgia. His brother, rescued at the same time, didn't survive despite heroic efforts to save him. The people from Home at Last really go the distance for some very tough cases.

Thanks again to Chrissie and all the people from Home at Last for making this possible. We feel really lucky to have this boy at the farm.

We had a run of bad luck in getting a livestock guardian dog this year. Sometimes things take awhile to come together, and in retrospect it often seems that there's a reason for it. I believe this guy is the one we were supposed to find.

There are a couple more pictures in the comments section.

...

A special message to Pyr Lovers who are reading: Home at Last has a sweet, well-socialized tripod Great Pyrenees named Jackson. Be advised that his story is graphic and terrible, and that Jackson is in much, much better shape than he was when this petfinder ad was written. He'd be a wonderful companion for anyone who is otherwise set up to handle a GP. (Among other things they need a large, fenced area to run in and usually lots of interaction). Please get in touch with Home at Last if you think Jackson may have a place in your life. Feel free to contact me by Flickr mail to get an idea what it's like to have a Pyr around the place and what Pyrs need to thrive.

BTW, I took all these images with a 210mm telephoto. I didn't stick a camera in poor Granger's face. :)

What a confusing world it can seem with a hangover.

Sit as still as you can. Do not attempt to make any decisions.

Look out of the window. Can you recognise simple shapes and colours? Is there a moon or a sun in the sky? What sort of a name might you have? Where might there be bacon?

If you feel as though you fell asleep tongue-first on an antique bear-pelt…If your heart gallops and your hair aches… If you are scared of fresh air…then you may have something called a hangover.
