Promo photo shoot by RonBoudreau.com
I shot this at a friend's wedding.
A regular sight this is, again, at most functions and marriage events. Weddings in india are an extravagant affair by any standards - whether it's the wedding of a middle class individual or an extremely affluent one. 'Wastage' & 'over-use' are the key words.
But well, this story is about Plastics. As compelling a visual that this arrangement of plastic cups is, equally ugly is what follows the usage of these - littered and disposed in all parts of the venues. Again long exposure to the sun with water inside definitely contaminates it further. Isn't there a better alternative?
In the old days of weddings we always had steel glasses that were used for the purpose. Washed and reused. But these days everybody is concerned about cleanliness and hygiene, that they think these glasses bring. Why so is it then, that people fall ill more these days than before? So plastics isn't the solution?
Would take this chance to introduce you all to a brilliant new documentary doing the rounds, and which I urge you all to watch. Here's a link to the trailer - it's called Plastic Planet: firstrunfeatures.com/plasticplanet/

Sound for Sight 2018 Line-up:-
Charlotte Kelly (Soul II Soul)
Mo Pleasure (Earth, Wind & Fire)
Dave Swift (Jools Holland)
Georgia and the Vintage Youth
Joe Slater
Professor Dan Reinstein
Denise Leigh
Sound for Sight is raising funds and awareness towards Sightsavers’ work eliminating the World’s leading cause of preventable blindness, trachoma.
Trachoma is a bacterial infection linked to inadequate water and sanitation and passed on by flies. It is referred to as ‘neglected tropical diseases’ and can be prevented and ultimately eliminated entirely.
The Sound for Sight audience will be taken on a spectacular sensory experience during the show that has been carefully curated by Sound for Sight Founder, Laura Westcott and ‘Mo Pleasure’ the former Music Director of Earth, Wind & Fire.
Charlotte Kelly, Soul II Soul
Charlotte rose to fame in the mid 1990s as one of the lead singers of British R&B group Soul II Soul, with hit songs “Back to Life” and “Keep on Movin”.
Charlotte was born blind at birth with no sight at all in her left eye and virtually none in her right eye.
“I am very excited and delighted to perform at Sound for Sight because being blind from birth, sound is one of the most important tools we possess as blind and visually impaired people. So, treatment and eradication of blindness is a blessing for the growth on the human experience.” – Charlotte Kelly
Denise Leigh
Denise made her operatic debut in 2003 by winning Channel 4’s Operatunity and playing the role of Gilda in Verdi’s Rigoletto at the London Coliseum.
Since then, Denise has sung all over the world and was honoured to headline the London 2012 Paralympic opening ceremony.
Both Denise and her husband Stefan (who will accompany Denise on piano) are visually impaired with a visually impaired son.
“The treatment and eradication of blindness, in all it’s forms, is a cause very close to our hearts and we are delighted to be performing at Sound for Sight to help fund research and treatment.” Denise and Stefan
Mo Pleasure
Mo is a renowned multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and producer. Mo began his professional music career playing bass guitar with Ray Charles. In 1993, Mo became a member of the legendary group Earth, Wind & Fire, and ascended to become the band’s musical director from 1994-2001.
Mo has performed with Stevie Wonder, Nile Rogers, Bette Midler, Roberta Flack, Amy Winehouse to name a few… He also played keys for Michael Jackson on his final comeback tour at the O2.
Dave Swift
Dave joined Jools Holland’s Rhythm and Blues Orchestra in 1991 as his resident bass player, and has played with him ever since! He is one of the UK’s finest, high-profile bass players and boasts a musician’s portfolio that is second to none, having played for an array of renowned artists, from George Benson and Chaka Khan to Eric Clapton and Paul Simon.
Professor Dan Reinstein
Dan is a pioneer in laser eye surgery and Founded the London Vision Clinic. He is also a very talented saxophonist and often accompanies Mo Pleasure at London’s iconic 606 Club.
Georgia & The Vintage Youth
A 22 year old Essex Girl with big blonde hair, a spine-tingling voice and a master of the retro jazz/swing style of music that is both vintage and fresh (hence the name of the band).
Georgia’s sound is contagious and subconsciously gets you tapping your feet, whilst her ballads are stripped back allowing Georgia’s strong and iconic vocal to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end.
Joe Slater
A 22-year-old lad from Liverpool who blurs the lines between Blues, Soul and Rock ‘n’ Roll whilst taking inspiration from The Beatles, Bruce Springsteen and Oasis.
“With his raspy voice, perfect pitch and soulful delivery, Slater is unquestionably destined for stardom….” London Hollywood
Don’t miss what promises to be an extraordinary night for a very worthy cause on World Sight Day.
Our fellow trekker was able to snap a rare shot of a miniature Japanese penguin seeking shelter under an ice shelf.
We thought it was awesome when he whipped the little guy out from his bag.
Steve took this picture of me with Ava on our walk. I'm sure many people in the neighborhood have seen us out and about like this—although I usually have my camera strap over my shoulder.

This plane model is a sight for sore eyes where I live. I've been hunting one for the last three years and as it turned out one was living almost next door at my neighbour.
This is a relatively late era Sheffield made version with aluminum nuts and depth adjusting wheel. These are not always finished in the best possible way but with some fettling they can be turned into really good users. This example had a poorly milled frog surface so I have straightened out the bed and bottom rails. The blade was also badly concave, which is now fixed.
The base shows signs of rust and very shallow pitting on the sides, but the bottom is in good shape and everything now works as it should.

This Hubble Space Telescope image features a bright spiral galaxy known as MCG-01-24-014, which is located about 275 million light-years from Earth. In addition to being a well-defined spiral galaxy, MCG-01-24-014 has an extremely energetic core, known as an active galactic nucleus (AGN), so it is referred to as an active galaxy.
Even more specifically, it is categorised as a Type-2 Seyfert galaxy. Seyfert galaxies host one of the most common subclasses of AGN, alongside quasars. Seyfert galaxies tend to be relatively nearby ones where the host galaxy remains plainly detectable alongside its central AGN, while quasars are very distant AGNs whose incredible luminosities outshine their host galaxies.

Why is this neatly packed up classroom an 'unwelcome' sight?
It's the sight of a classroom that is yet to have the carpets and windows cleaned.
It's the sight of a classroom with walls still wet with paint.
With a full program of PD next week and school starting the week after, this is NOT what I wanted to see today.
Yey, first sight of my home for the next 5 weeks. We crossed from Siberia to Japan in about 30 minutes and the first sight we had was of mountains in the north. Cool :D
Advanced Optics green dot laser sight mounted on Celestron Astromaster 130AZ telescope. Designed as a firearms sight, this unit works perfectly as an astronomical tool. Once properly mounted and aligned, you simply press the remote switch and swing the telescope to point the highly visible green beam at the object you wish to observe. Fast, easy and accurate! (and relatively inexpensive...the laser unit sells on Amazon for $22, plus $9 for the rail to mount the laser to the telescope)
Seen at Barkisland Stonlea is an Optare Solo M710SE for South Pennine Community Transport on the E4 service to Brighouse via Greetland and Elland. This makes quite a difference from the usual Fiat Ducado Mellor Orions and the Mercedes-Benz Sprinters/EVMs that dominate the route.
This vehicle is YJ12 GZH.
