I am posting this for all my Flickr friends who have lost someone dear to them. Whether it is a recent loss or a loss of long ago, no matter. It is still a loss. Particularly at this time of year, it can be very fresh and painful. I find myself thinking of my friend who lost his father suddenly this year, who remembers his dad trying to open presents from Thanksgiving on, making up reasons to get his grandsons to open their pressies early. I remember sitting across from my uncle, consoling him as he grieved his wife; I am now grieving him. I think about my husband, who lost a very special auntie this year and could not get back for the funeral. I think of my dear friends who lost their brother in a traumatic way, right before Christmas, eight years ago. Another friend who lost her father this year and even though he was far away and she didn't get to see him often, it is still a loss. I think of Joelynne who lost her vibrant mother this fall. And countless others who have dealt with loss and grieving and pain. If I could list you all here, I would! Please know that my heart goes out to you as you face each day without that special someone.

I call this street "The Street of the death" because it's very scary when you walk alone there in the night

Looking south from Binnian over the silent valley reservoir to Rosstrevor and Carlingford Lough. (10 hand-held snaps taken vertically with 50mm lens)
I'm grateful for the silent time
To think and make a plan
When the morning world is mine
I do because I can.
I love the quietude of dawn
Before the sun's completely up
I rub my eyes and give a yawn
And fill once more my coffee cup.
The morning songs of birds awakening
In the misty dawn
Sets my very soul aquaking
Like windblown grass of lawn.
The springtime morns especially treat me
With the springtime birds of song
The robins come to early greet me
The blue jays also come along.
Thank God for mornings, whatever season
They're a beauty to behold
I'll not be broke for any reason
Because the mornings are my gold.

- www.kevin-palmer.com - On the night of winter solstice I went for a hike around the Sibley Lake nordic ski trail. It was a beautifully clear night with perfect silence and solitude. The snow here was above my knees but I couldn't pass up this scene with towering pines and snow-covered boulders.

Nestled in the Kawarthas near Bancroft Ontario, is Silent Lake Provincial Park.
American sportsmen fished and hunted on this private lake for 40 years before it became a park. Landlocked and undeveloped, Silent Lake has a rocky shoreline, a mixed forest and marshes full of birds and wildlife best seen by canoe. A rugged trail circles the lake, and sections of groomed ski trails have been graded for mountain biking.
I watched a few Lightroom videos and decided to play around a bit more with my previous image. I like the way this one turned out even better!
Here's the original description:
"In Rocky Mountain National Park, on the top of Trail Ridge road, we witnessed this spectacular event where the fog silently flowed in, filling up the valley. It was beautiful in its silence. When the tendrils of fog came creeping up the sides of the bowl reaching towards me, I started to feel uneasy however, like I was in a Stephen King novel."

I'm planning on uploading this series bit by bit to break up some of the graffiti I still have left. This was shot in 2013 when this chemical rendering plant was quickly converted into smaller rental units.

I have been documenting the changing face of this neighborhood since 2005 to the present day. I never imagined that going to a photo meetup here would provide me with enough content and inspiration to continue to photograph the dynamic changes taking place as the neighborhood transformed from a dead retail strip on Dundas with derelict and shuttered industry to the hot hipster neighborhood it’s become. The Junction was not always known as such, it was rather West Toronto neighborhood, which for a large part was more often referred to the Stockyards. Meat processing is the only original industry that is still present today, to the dismay of residents. Industry was centralized here as the area had lower land prices and taxes and the creation of an official port of entry. Also Canadian Pacific developed a large rail yard which extends from Keele to Scarlet road. This led to massive industrial and commercial development which stayed for the most part until closures started with these companies in 2005.
Canada packers, CCM, Campbell Milling and Heinzman piano company were the most notable companies, which all have been converted respectfully to a large mall, another mall complex and a high rise condo. Other buildings such as the Symes waste transfer station and Sherwin Williams and Houghton plant were recently converted into a brewery, a failed condo development now waiting to be sold, and a studio complex with a gym and printing facilities. The first spot I photographed was the old Sherwin Williams plant in late 2005 on a cold Christmas weekend and it peaked my curiosity about industry in the city. Another notable location I visited multiple times was the old GE plant, which as of today (2018) is completely redeveloped. The old Bunge complex, which was located on St.Clair west of Keele was my personal favorite spot to visit while it was intact. I must have been 8 times and got to know the entire complex quite well. It was knocked over very quickly and the large stockyards mall took it’s place.
The story of my junction documentary project is quite extensive and the best way to discover more is to look at the captions on the images. I enjoyed exploring an area with so much industrial diversity so close to home and find myself wishing I still had something like this in my backyard.

German film magazine. Cover of special issue on Hurra, ich lebe! (Wilhelm Thiele, 1928). Illustrierter Film-Kurier, 1928.
Dutch local merchant Pieter Kruis (Nicolas Koline), pestered by his brothers, receives a huge sum from a former school buddy, now an American millionaire, to come over. When in Rotterdam he is afraid to sail out, is picked up by profiteers and looses all his money. He is declared dead after the ship he was supposed to take to the US perished. His brothers cash the insurance money but then Pieter returns alive... While the typical local village of Kruis was a film set, real exteriors with Koline were shot in the harbor of Rotterdam. The film was a huge success, also in the Netherlands, where the cliché-like image of the Netherlands was pardoned because of the high entertainment factor and the excellent play of the actors, Koline in the first place.
Nicolas Koline (1878 - 1966) aka Nikolai Kolin or Coline was a Russian actor who emigrated to Western Europe after the revolution and performed there in French and German silent films and afterwards in German films from the sound era.
Have you ever been silently in love
With someone you can never have?
So close you can touch her hand
Yet, so far to feel her heart?
Have you ever lived in pretense
Quietly loving without any condition?
A feeling of love that's unknown
Hiding it, not knowing for how long.
Have you ever been hurt unintentionally
But put on a smile, pretended to be happy?
Deep inside you're in pain and suffering
But outside you're jolly and laughing.
Why does holding her hand feel so right?
Your heart smiles every time she's at sight
Hearing her sweet voice makes your day
Hope you can hug her in a special way.

A few weeks ago, I went to the coast with Emer to make some photographs. We hadn’t shot together very often before so we had to do that “getting to know each other” thing.
We took some crap shots because of that awkward awareness between us, Then something happened … and we made some images that I think are pretty damn cool. That’s the beauty of working with people you don’t really know - there’s always that element of “being uncomfortable”, that sense that we don’t actually know each other.
Sometimes, during those times, pretty good stuff can happen.
The lonely trees
spread their earthly leaves
upon the winds,
as it gently settles on the ground.
The sun, with its golden beams
reaching out its warmth
across the silent land.
Here sits a bench,
day by day,
stranger after stranger,
may it rain,
or may gusts of wind pass.
it had waited.
He heard stories,
comforted lost souls.
Shared laughters,
embraced a tired heart
as it slumbered.
Here sits a bench,
in its solitary existence,
it is content.

before i ever got in here, I knew that this spot would be interesting, even with all the rendering equipment having been taken out because of all the windows. For a few years it was a gym, and now it's a photo studio.
