Giant crabs, large figurines, each more outlandish than the last.... So tacky that it becomes amusing.
One doesn't discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of the shore for a very long time.

Thursday Bokeh...didn't get a chance to post it yesterday.
Taken at The Pier Shops At Caesars in Atlantic City, NJ. For some reason, I always seek out these coin operated binoculars. They make the most interesting subject.
three pairs of eyes...
a pair for uncertainty... working in the tea garden as a day labor with the lowest amount of wages(~0.5USD/day)... have to maintain a family of 6 members... don't know whats the future... that doesn't let them sleep...
another pair of deprivation... passing the childhood in the tea garden slums... deprived of all basic needs that a child should avail... no schooling... malnutrition... lack of medicare... all these make this pair the most banal sight...
the last pair of curiosity... its the interesting pair with lots of curiosity... the happiest pair among these six... because it can't still judge the world...

Monschau - Architecture
The popular historical town center has many preserved half-timbered houses and narrow streets have remained nearly unchanged since the 18th century. Very touristy in the high season but outside of this busy period you can still explore the beauty of this beautiful town.

The Opened Sight
"I now send you, to open their eyes…that they may receive forgiveness of sins…"
[Acts 26:17-18]
This verse is the greatest example of the true essence of the message of a disciple of Jesus Christ in all of the New Testament. God’s first sovereign work of grace is summed up in the words, “…that they may receive forgiveness of sins….” When a person fails in his personal Christian life, it is usually because he has never received anything. The only sign that a person is saved is that he has received something from Jesus Christ. Our job as workers for God is to open people’s eyes so that they may turn themselves from darkness to light. But that is not salvation; it is conversion—only the effort of an awakened human being. I do not think it is too broad a statement to say that the majority of so-called Christians are like this. Their eyes are open, but they have received nothing. Conversion is not regeneration. This is a neglected fact in our preaching today. When a person is born again, he knows that it is because he has received something as a gift from Almighty God and not because of his own decision. People may make vows and promises, and may be determined to follow through, but none of this is salvation. Salvation means that we are brought to the place where we are able to receive something from God on the authority of Jesus Christ, namely, forgiveness of sins. This is followed by God’s second mighty work of grace: “…an inheritance among those who are sanctified….” In sanctification, the one who has been born again deliberately gives up his right to himself to Jesus Christ, and identifies himself entirely with God’s ministry to others. Hallelujah God bless
This is what I call a peaceful sight, a nice horse and a sunny day! I made it for the "Peace song" for a video song...

Deer can see almost 90 percent of the world around them and pick up movement that humans and other predators, with eyes at the front of the head, cannot. However, deer only have two-eyed vision in a very narrow arc directly in front of their noses. If you are still, deer generally see you as just another lump in the landscape.

In 1998 Virgin Trains hired preserved Deltic D9000 to haul some cross-country trains! It now seems bizarre enough to see an 'Inter-City' train at Ramsgate without there being a Deltic on the front! August 1998.
I forget where this train had started, but this still being in the morning it was probably only Birmingham - however it then returned from here to Edinburgh!
We watched an event where the hatched baby spiders climbed up a web filament from the garden to the top of a metal pole. The mother spider was waiting there and would attach a line to each one of them. Each would be released and drift off on the breeze. Waterloo Township, Michigan. Can anyone tell me what this spider is?
