These little ducks swimming made for a good photo opportunity. I purposefully didnt focus on the first duck as they always get the limelight! I wonder what the middle one was thinking about to make him swim out of formation!
Dinner aboard the Mikhail Lermontov, June 1977
We took the Lermontov from New York City to London, where I had a job for the year. It was quite an experience. Took 7 days (which is slow). There were many East Europeans and Russians on the ship, mostly UN or embassy, returning for the summer.
Sadly, the ship sank in the South Pacific in 1986.

Second Best "52 Weeks Project"
Since I have been joining the 52 Weeks Project on Flickr it has happened several times that I had to chose between two or more self portraits that week. A difficult choice. The solution is to create a set of all good alternatives. Life is full of choices and sometimes a week has too much opportunities. This is one of those alternatives, the second best. And sometimes just as good.

Danse Macabre: Danse Macabre: a ghost spectacle full of dark twists
Danse Macabre lets visitors dance to the music of the eponymous piece of music by Camille Saint-Saëns. On a large turntable of 18 meters in diameter, with 6 smaller turntables on it, there are 6 choir stalls in which a total of 108 visitors can take a seat. The large turntable will rise, tilt and fall, and spin like a coin before it falls flat. Date of opening: 31/10/2024
The Eyes: The two-colored eyes of the black cat, the "onnoembare" ("unspeakable") returns to our eyes.
