Listening: Eclipse - Pink Floyd

 

Oggi c'era l'eclissi di Sole. Tutta eccitata,assieme ad altri due amici,mi sono svegliata presto presto per esser fuori casa alle 8 e vederla (durava dalle 7 alle 9.30 circa). Sfortuna ha voluto che invece il cielo fosse tutto coperto e che non si sia quindi potuto veder nulla...tuttavia la cosa mi ha ispirato a far un controluce.

 

I fenomeni come l'eclissi mi fan sempre pensare a qualcosa di rigenerante,ad un cambiamento,alla forza della natura e dell'Universo,alla perfezione che esso si porta dietro.

La Luna da domani torna a crescere.

   

Today there was an eclipse of the sun. Very excited, together with two friends, I woke up early to be away from home at 8 and see its (it lasted from about 7 to 9.30).

but we were unlucky because the sky was completely covered and we couldn't see anything... but it inspired me to make a backlight.

 

The phenomena such as eclipses always make me think of something refreshing, make me thing of a change, and to the power of nature and of the Universe,with their perfection.

The Moon will start growing again tomorrow.

Pro pro.. proibito

Pro pro.. è proibito, è proibito

Qui niente male, mi sembra un funerale

Chi muore solo, chi ammazza per il pane

C'è aria di festa, la morte è pure questa

Dice che è proibito, che è proibito anche pensare

Sogno proibito di qualcuno è castigare

Eh, li sento parlare di vite bruciate

Ma non permetto più

Qui niente male, l'eterno funerale

Chiudi la testa, rinuncia alla tua festa

Dice che è proibito, che è proibito anche fumare

Io vi lascio il giorno, ma la notte è solo mia, mia!

Eh, mi piace godere

Mi è cara la vita

Perché ci giochi tu

Eh, li sento parlare

Di riti pagani, ma non permetto più

No!

Dice che è proibito, che è proibito anche volare

io vi lascio il giorno ma la notte è tutta mia

Eh, la fine del mondo

Sarà all'alba o di notte, ma non è colpa mia

Qualcuno ci ha provato

Gli ho detto vaffanculo

Tu da qui non mi allontanerai

Eh, mi piace godere

A volte pensare che la loro è gelosia o tirannia

Eh, mi sento tradito se ti spari le pere

E non esisti più, ma più, ma più, ma più...

Pro,

pro... proibito!

I'm spending time with my family this weekend. It's a little tiring.

March 27, 2016

 

I had a good day. I spent Easter with my sister and her family. After that we went my sister's husbands family. It was a nice day.

Now, apparently I've been tagged and am supposed to put up a selfy and tell 10 things that people might not know about me. Jave I will get you back for this. Sleep with one eye open my friend. Mooohahahaha LOL....

 

So apparently, some genius came up with this stupid game to annoy millions of flickrites. I strongly oppose the whole idea and premise behind this non-sense. LOL. OK, seriously, No-one wants to see the faces behind the camera. There is a reason we are behind the camera. Our mugs are meant to be hidden from the world. So that the delusion and fantasy of beautiful people making beautiful images stays alive and well. Then someone comes along with this game and shatters the dream of so many and cripples the very fabric of our existence. OK a little too dramatic, I know :-).....but its late and I had to get this up before midnight for a friend because the timing fits so well.

 

10 Things you probably don't know about me......

 

1) Today is my birthday....and yes I share it with the 1st President of the United States of America.....Yeah....I know...Its pretty cool......LMAO.....

 

2) I died several times in the hospital soon after I was born and then a few times after I got home, I've been told by my parents. Not sure exactly what that means, the doctors couldn't really explain it to my parents at the time. Maybe I was just too lazy to breath. That, or it was just too damn cold when I got out. ???

 

3) I grew up in East San Jose and still live in the same neighbor hood that I grew up in, although I now send my kids to private school. There was 6 shootings and 2 murders in my High School when I attended it, and my limit is 5 shooting and 1 murder, so I decided on private school for my kids....hey...a limit is a limit...right ???

 

4) My family lived in a 20 foot trailer for a couple of years (not exactly sure how long), while my father was building our house from the ground up by himself, when we first moved to San Jose. My first toys were re-bar and cinder blocks. Possibly some cement or sand. Some kids had Linkon Logs, me and my brother had cinder blocks. Hey....they worked....but it got a little sketchy when we stacked them too high.....Ouch....Mommy....I ...need...a...band aid....LOL.....

 

5) The one thing that I've done longer then photography (25years) is playing the guitar (30 years). That is also the only thing that I've spent more money on as well. I have over a dozen guitars and half a dozen amps. But my first guitar I found in a trash dumpster behind a building when I went to work one day with my dad. It was beat to $hit and could barely stay tuned (thus being in the trash) but it lit a spark which still burns today. In fact, I was playing one of my guitars before I sat down to post this.

 

6) I love riding motorcycles. I own a Harley Davidson Road King and can not see a day that I would every want to get rid of it. I plan on handing it down to my son. Although, I do not get to ride it as often as I like, when I do, it is something that feeds the heart and soul, relaxing the mind and giving a true feeling of freedom in a place that feels more or more stifling everyday, as our cities get more crowded and freedoms feel less free.

 

7) I am a pessimistic Optimist. I see that the glass is half empty, but can imagine what it would be like if it was full. Then I figure out a way to fill it. Half full my a$$. :-)

 

8) I am the son of two immigrants. I am the first of my family to be born in the United States of America and the first to graduate from a University. My elementary school doesn't exist any longer, wiped off the face of the earth and my high school called Mt. Pleasant was neither on a mountain or pleasant in so many ways. I graduated from Santa Clara University, which opened my eyes to both how much more life could encompass and also how cruel it could be in the process.

 

9) My Hero in my father. Our relationship has been both turbulent and rewarding. It is through watching him that I have become the man that I am and have determined what it is that I aspire to be.

 

10) Yes, that is barbed wire behind me in the photo. And no, I've never been stuck behind a wall of that nature (as I've already been asked) :-). I won't tell you where it was taken and can't really say why I picked this scene. I think its a symbolic type thing. Something about breaking through barriers or limits. Use your imaginations. Break down walls, limits, restrictions, whatever. Do what needs to be done, to accomplish what you want in life. Whether it be that next photo or that next job. Don't see the glass as half empty or half full. Figure out a way to fill you glass to the rim and then drink it. Then laugh when your done. That's what life's all about.

 

Stay healthy and safe.

 

Enjoy :-)

Trovare qualcosa di nuovo, qualcosa che nessuno avrebbe potuto immaginare prima, qualcosa che solo tu puoi trovare perchè, oltre ad essere fotografo, sei un essere umano un po' speciale, capace di guardare in profondità dove altri tirerebbero dritto.

 

Find something new, something that no one could have imagined before, something that only you can find because, in addition to being a photographer, you're a human being a little 'special, able to look in depth where others would pull straight.

Ahh! Well. So much to say here. First time that I actually self-modeled something turned out decent. (:

I was pretty bored after school so I just painted flowers on my face with eyeshadow and lipstick and played with a glass flower. Because, you know, that's what all normal people do! *^^*

 

PS - Sooooo much better on BLACK.

I hate taking selfies. By the time I've brushed my teeth in the morning I've had my quota of looking at myself for the day :)

June 16, 2016

 

My day was good. I went out for a few errands.

i didnt think it was that fun when i saw animals doing it... but you should really try it, its fun!!

 

haha

 

im lame.

In a way I was glad that yesterday was the last day of my adventure and that I would be flying home. I'd certainly had lots of fun and had done some things I wouldn't normally (e.g. kayaking!) but I did miss my fuzzballs and my own bed.

I relished the chance to sleep in before packing up my stuff and cramming it back into my suitcase. I don't know why it was harder to fit everything in - I hadn't picked up any new stuff throughout the week. Then, after returning my key, I still had a couple of hours to kill before heading to the airport so I went to The Square and sat by the pond, surrounded by ducks, and wrote.

I had a window seat for my flight home (have never actually flown not in a window seat actually) and watched again as the houses, paddocks and mountains shrunk away beneath me like a Sim City screen. When we passed over Cook Straight and for most of the flight home I had views of just gorgeous blues. It was so hard to distinguish where the sea ended and the sky began, they just merged into each other.

I was expecting to meet Mum at the airport once we landed in Christchurch and was pleasantly surprised to see that Dad had come along too. A double welcoming committee! (maybe they did miss me ;)

Once home I was greeted my fuzzballs with lots of enthusiasm. We hadn't seen each other in about ten days! And then, my very time consuming task of going through nearly one thousand photographs that I'd taken over the three weeks began. I think it will take me a while to sort them all out and edit them!

Ah well, it is fun =)

Fun day at Kitzsteinhorn

This hat makes me happy, but being back at Vassar in an ice storm does not.

No house to live no one want give

Democracy means power to the people

Work week is almost over. First full week of work almost done. On, its still cold.

I'm trying to convey the message of "embracing yourself" in the photo. Most of the time, people wear make-up to appease the society. However, the make-up is distorted in the photo. The girl was trying to her best to please people, but she failed. She felt ashamed and trying to turn her head to the dark in order to hide her imperfection. I used the contrast between the light and the dark to portray the idea of "spotlight" and "privacy".
