These two women were sitting on a bench in Verdi Square. The pizza looked quite delicious, but I didn't think it would be a good idea to ask them if I could have a slice...

 

Note: this photo was published as an illustration in an undated (Jan 2010) BooRah blog titled "New Pizza On The Block, West New York - 100%." And it was published in an Apr 14, 2010 blog titled "The value of transparency." It was also published in an undated (mid-Jul 2011) Simple Photographic Dictionary blog to illustrate the word "share."

 

Moving into 2012, the photo was published in a Feb 6, 2012 blog titled "How can I share a large computer screen with a laptop?" It was also published in an Apr 14, 2012 ShareOffers blog, with the same caption as I had written on this Flickr page -- but no detailed notes.

 

*********************************

 

This is the continuation of a photo-project that I began in the summer of 2008: a random collection of "interesting" people in a broad stretch of the Upper West Side of Manhattan -- between 72nd Street and 104th Street, especially along Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue.

 

As I indicated when I started this project in 2008, I don't like to intrude on people's privacy, so I normally use a telephoto lens in order to photograph them while they're still 50-100 feet away from me; but that means I have to continue focusing my attention on the people and activities half a block away, rather than on what's right in front of me.

 

I've also learned that, in many cases, the opportunities for an interesting picture are very fleeting -- literally a matter of a couple of seconds, before the person(s) in question move on, turn away, or stop doing whatever was interesting. So I've learned to keep the camera switched on (which contradicts my traditional urge to conserve battery power), and not worry so much about zooming in for a perfectly-framed picture ... after all, once the digital image is uploaded to my computer, it's pretty trivial to crop out the parts unrelated to the main subject.

 

Thus far, I've generally avoided photographing bums, drunks, crazies, and homeless people. There are a few of them around, and they would certainly create some dramatic pictures; but they generally don't want to be photographed, and I don't want to feel like I'm taking advantage of them. I'm still looking for opportunities to take some "sympathetic" pictures of such people, which might inspire others to reach out and help them. We'll see how it goes ...

 

The only other thing I've noticed, thus far, is that while there are lots of interesting people to photograph, there are far, far, far more people who are not so interesting. They're probably fine people, and they might even be more interesting than the ones I've photographed ... but there was just nothing memorable about them.

I post edited this image of Bryana a spirited young lady I met while on a business trip who worked at the front desk of the hotel I stayed at. I wanted to bring out her eyes and front of her face with some sharpness while, texturing her hair and creating a grainy or staticky feel on the ambience surrounding her. It gives a feeling of being near a fireplace and just chatting with someone interesting and special. It's about realness, interaction that can only happen when we're willing to share a moment. Millington Tennessee, 15 August 2017.

... I may HAVE to share the bath with you, but the one thing I don't HAVE to do is like it.

South Africa and Western Australia, the two sites for the Square Kilometre Array (SKA), share the same southern geographic latitude. Therefore, they also share the same night sky, albeit with a time difference of about 6 hours.

 

Since the early days of human presence in these parts of the world, the indigenous peoples have seen the same constellations, the Milky Way and the planets wheel overhead; first in Australia and a few hours later in South Africa. This is a powerful idea that lets the imagination run free in these days of international collaboration in building the largest radio telescope the world has ever seen: the Square Kilometre Array.

 

A recent exhibition, 'Shared Sky', brings together works of art by indigenous artists from both areas in a magnificent collection, as breathtaking as the sky itself.

 

The Yamaji and other aboriginal artists have contributed paintings that are done in the typical colourful pointillistic style on phenomena in the sky, like the stars, planets, sun and moon and the Emu in the sky: the Milky Way.

 

The descendants of San people of the Karoo in South Africa have contributed artworks done in textiles, depicting stories of creation and ancient celestial culture.

 

The exhibition was opened last month in Perth, Australia at the John Curtin Gallery and will ultimately travel to all corners of the globe. Next stop South Africa. More background information can be found on the website of the SKA: www.skatelescope.org/shared-sky/

Lion cubs Ken and Dixie are rocks stars at the San DIego Zoo Safari Park. The siblings turned six months old on Friday.

These cousins made their way out to this rock in the lake and had their famous "little adult conversations" while they shared sticks and enjoyed the dirt and water while on vacation!

Pyrops whiteheadi & Cockroaches - Danum Valley, Malaysia

 

My previous photo in my photostream shows ants interacting with a leafhopper in order to obtain honeydew. So I thought it would be interesting to follow up with a different example of the same behavior. This interaction is a bit more unusual as this time its a roach with a lantern bug! There is also actually a second roach but its not visible from this angle. Honeydew is a sugary liquid secreted by certain insects. I have known for a long time ants harvested it from aphids, but I was surprised to see roaches interacting with other bugs for it and I was shocked to learn even geckos will do this! In terms of the ants its mutualism as the ants benefit from the food and the insects they recieve it from benefit from the protection of the ants. A similar interaction has been suggested between the geckos and lanternbugs as the gecko may eat the competing insects. However I'm not sure what benefit if any the lanternbug receives from interaction with cockroaches.

Now, in winter, the river is running high for a few days. The river authority is sharing some of the water they retained most of last year. Right now the level stands at 2.92m , and the Ebro looks like a river rather than a creek. Most of the summer and fall the level was low, at times 0.58m which is way below the sediment replacement level for the Delta. The red line to the right of the writing on the wall is the minimum waterlevel required to sustain the delta. The writing says: "No to water diversion".

I would share my sun with you

when chill rides the wind and cold bites your nose,

I would share my shade and orange popsicle with you

when sweat trickles down your forehead.
