Às vezes tenho idéias felizes,
Idéias subitamente felizes, em idéias
E nas palavras em que naturalmente se despegam...
Depois de escrever, leio...
Por que escrevi isto?
Onde fui buscar isto?
De onde me veio isto? Isto é melhor do que eu...
Seremos nós neste mundo apenas canetas com tinta
Com que alguém escreve a valer o que nós aqui traçamos?...
Fernando Pessoa

These campaigns can often produce a prosocial acceptance of persecuted groups. Though sometimes they are simply ignored. Photo from www.mucklesandwich.wordpress.com
Sometimes when you only think about something it is just happening, today was one of those days...I believe in miracles... :-)
I did some test shots to try out my new 110cm silver reflective umbrella and a Nikkor 85mm 1.8 (borrowed from photograbber)
Yeahh, it's fun! :-)
Please view on black and large

... sometimes you don't. Bunni says this is quite possibly the most disturbing thing he's seen in awhile. Not my best photoshop work kids. 4/1/2008
Sometimes Love Just Ain't Enough
Patti Smyth ft. Don Henley
I don't want to lose you, but I don't want to use you
Just to have somebody by my side
And I don't want to hate you, I don't want to take you
But I don't want to be the one to cry
And that don't really matter to anyone anymore
But like a fool I keep losing my place
I keep seeing you walk through that door
There's a danger in loving somebody too much
And it's sad when you know it's your heart you can't trust
There's a reason why people don't stay where they are
Baby, sometimes, love just aint enough
I could never change you, I don't want to blame you
Baby, you don't have to take the fall
Yes, I may have hurt you, but I did not desert you
Maybe I just want to have it all
It makes a sound like thunder, it makes me feel like rain
And like a fool who will never see the truth
I keep thinking something's gonna change
And there's no way home, when it's late at night and you're all alone
Are there things that you wanted to say?
And do you feel me beside you in your bed
There beside you, where I used to lay?
For me the point of making these particular types of Kinetic Photographs is that the camera is not in my hands or under my control when the photograph is actually made. I set the camera’s self-timer, throw the camera into the air (sometimes as high as 15 feet or higher), the shutter releases—capturing the photograph—while the camera is airborne, and I hope that I catch my camera without dropping it. The photographic cycle is complete and all that remains is for me to upload my shots and see what has been captured and how. I upload most of the photos in the same orientation in which they were captured.
None of these photos are Photoshopped, layered, or composites...what you see occurs in one shot, one take.
Aren’t I afraid that I will fail to catch my camera and thus drop and break my camera? For regular followers of my photostream and my kinetic photography you will know that I have already done so. This little camera has been dropped many times, and broken once when dropped on concrete outside. It still functions...not so well for regular photographs, but superbly for more kinetic work.
Albeit supremely risky this is one of my favorite ways to produce abstract photographs.

Kinetic: Relating to, caused by, or producing motion.
These are called “Kinetic” photographs because there is motion, energy, and movement involved, specifically my and the camera’s movements.

Sometimes you have to be in the right place at the right time. Sometimes you have to be in the right place at the right time. I just happened to be at there.
This is the same guy who collects my recycling at my house (with a different truck). He got annoyed that the stuff just wasn't falling in the truck, and got up on top of the truck!
This is the old spare Barrington DPW Recycling Truck. Now it is the MEGA disposal spare. This was the first (and oldest) truck the Barrington DPW ever bought and ran. I believe it is a 79'.
...the table is full of stuff......to be read, to be sorted out, to be put away and to be tossed. I don't like my home to be too perfect. It's not a hotel, it's a home and I like a lived-in look.
If I think of how long I will be dead compared to how long I will be alive, and then I take a step back and laugh at the top of my lungs.
I ask myself.. so now Im supposed to take that time and judge somebody's skin colour, sexual preference, religious or political point of views?
Fuck that I have a life to live!
Exercising a critical point of view and coming up with my own conclusions.
Peace to All.
