This is the 13th image in the series called "Faceless Identity" The project is an investigation into the relationship between identity, time and distance.
This is the Artist Statement for "Faceless Identity"'
I have always been interested in portraits that do not conform to the norm. My photographic work always consists of capturing a live moment, but with my knowledge and extended research I have created a new direction of work with a personal perspective.
One of the main topics explored through this project is identity and time. To explore whether a character or personality can be captured during a period of time. The character throughout this project is myself, adding a personal view of how I can change over time. Each selection of images were taken over different days. I look different on each day, which shows how my identity has changed.
The triptych also expresses the factor between identity and time. The three images show the difference of identity over a small amount of time. The project in total shows the difference of identity over a long period. The difference between clothes, hair and even mood makes each image different in expressing identity.
Distance is also an important factor of the project. Depending on the distance of the viewer, the images takes on a different form due to the motion blur. Details are clear close up and the overall shape is visible further away. This expresses a difference in portrayal of identity depending on the distance of a person.
This project has been one of my most personal to date. Photographing myself over a long period has been an intimate experience. Creating a personal project has explored my own identity through photographic form.
I have taken inspiration from Alejandro Guijarro with his exploration of pixilation and audience visibility. Having an image take on a different form due to distance hugely inspired my thought process throughout this project, which influenced the use of a fast shutter speed through my self-portraits.
The future holds more self-portrait projects. My goals of expressing my identity photographically have been successful. After this effective project involving myself, I look forward to exploring myself photographically hereafter.

Liverpool's Catholic Cathedral of Christ the King is one of the most iconic church buildings of the 20th century, a daring architectural statement of the Church's embrace of post Vatican II reform and a unique structure with it's tent-like form and cylindrical lantern tower filled with glowing colour.
The present cathedral was begun in 1962 and opened five years later; it was designed by Sir Frederick Gibberd, winning designer of an architectural competition to build the new cathedral. This had followed years of hiatus and the abandonment of the previous insanely ambitious plans for the cathedral, building of which had begun in 1933 to the designs of Sir Edwin Lutyens but stopped soon after World War II with only the crypt completed. Lutyens's huge domed building verged on megalomania, designed to exceed the size of the enormous Anglican cathedral rising at the other end of Hope Street, and if finished would have been the World's second largest church, dominating the city. The need to revise such plans in the face of postwar austerity was hardly surprising.
Instead Liverpool was bequeathed a dramatic and instantly recognisable modernist landmark, which despite a few irreverent nicknames is generally admired for its innovation and contemporary artwork, foremost among which is the richly coloured dalle de verre glazing of the suspended lantern tower by John Piper and Patrick Reyntiens, who were also responsible for most of the glazing below which bathes the interior of the building in a subtle blue light.
The circular interior has the central altar as it's focus, below the lantern tower and a spiky suspended canopy, and is ringed by a sequence of individually designed chapels and annexes, most of which feature altars, minimalist coloured glazing and further contemporary artworks. It is a vast, auditorium-like space which ensures every member of the congregation has an unobscured view of the altar.

Governor Tomblin applauds
BOMBARDIER aerospace EXPANSION
BRIDGEPORT, W.Va. (November 15, 2016) - Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin issued the following statement after an event he participated in with Bombardier Aerospace officials today, where it was announced that the aircraft manufacturer plans to expand its plant in West Virginia:
"From my first days as West Virginia's Governor, I've made it my priority to bring new investments and jobs to our state. Today's expansion announcement by Bombardier represents continued momentum toward a stronger, more diversified state economy. I thank and congratulate Bombardier, its leadership team and employees on this milestone. And I look forward to seeing the far-reaching impact of new jobs in North Central West Virginia."
Bombardier Press Release
Bombardier Plans Expansion of Maintenance Capacity at its Commercial Aircraft Service Centre in Bridgeport, West Virginia
Bridgeport, November 15, 2016 – Bombardier Commercial Aircraft and the State of West Virginia today announced plans to expand Bombardier’s aircraft service center in Bridgeport, West Virginia. The planned expansion is intended to enhance Bombardier’s capacity to provide heavy maintenance, component repair and overhaul support for its CRJ Series and Q Series aircraft. Ground breaking for the project is expected to take place in the spring of 2017.
“The fleet of Bombardier commercial aircraft in North America has grown to over 1,620 CRJ Series regional jets and Q Series turboprops – that’s an impressive fleet number that can only be supported by expanding Bombardier’s service centres,” said Todd Young, Vice President and General Manager, Customer Services, Bombardier Commercial Aircraft. “We’re excited with this growth plan for WVAC, as it confirms our commitment and ability to continue to deliver on the comprehensive service solutions that our customers have come to expect from us. In addition to serving our operators with improved turnaround times and enhanced service solutions, we are also pleased to be collaborating with the State of West Virginia on this project.”
“From my first days as West Virginia’s Governor, I’ve made it my priority to bring new investments and jobs to our state,” said Governor Earl Ray Tomblin. “Today’s expansion announcement by Bombardier represents continued momentum toward a stronger, more diversified state economy. I thank and congratulate Bombardier, its leadership team and employees on this milestone. And I look forward to seeing the far-reaching impact of new jobs in North Central West Virginia.”
The announcement was made at the facility and was attended by Governor Earl Ray Tomblin, other local government representatives and members of the Bridgeport business community. Alongside Todd Young, Bombardier Commercial Aircraft was represented by Stephen McCoy, General Manager, Commercial Aircraft Service Centres; and Chad Hill, Director of Operations, WVAC.
The existing 145,000 square-foot (13,470 square-metre) service centre, would double in size to approximately 300,000 square feet (27,870 square metres). Currently, the service centre has a capacity to operate at 500,000 man-hours a year; post expansion, its capacity could increase to one million man-hours per year to accommodate up to 20 maintenance lines at a time -- up from the nine lines operating today.
Following the expansion, WVAC will offer complete maintenance services including a sheet metal back shop with repair and fabrication capabilities; heat treat services; non-destructive testing; CNC

My camera's shutter is set to repeat when held down. I like to track nice cars as they go around a corner. I always kneel down and get a keyhole-high view as I shoot these. I'll get about ten images and then choose the best one. It's a hobby.
This Gent is looking at me and wondering Why? www.flickr.com/photos/mikeygottawa/25307530920/sizes/o/
In our modern, connected World, I have in recent years noticed that people are more sensitive, more aware about having their photo snapped in public places.
It's the widespread use of social media like Twitter and Facebook that has allowed people to share photos and comments easily. They don't want to be embarrassed on social media on the internet.
The fact that every cell phone now has a camera has made it easy to take a picture and then post it on the Internet for all to see. The intent is not always honourable.

SFIFF 54- ASLEEP IN THE SUN-
Director ALEXJANDRO CHOMSKI skillfully directs an adaption of Argentina's famous 1973 book ALSEEP IN THE SUN.
Part allegory, part political horror and all around fancinating film about a 'cure' for a nervous disorder supported by a hidden 'odd' medical agency that has some connections to the local dog adoption center.
The handsome & devoted husband LUCIO ( LUIS MACHIN) wants only the best for his slowly tearing-at-the-seams wife DIANA (ESTHER GORIS). The quiet neighborhood of PARQUE CHAS, an actual place in Buenos Aires which was constructed in the 1920's with the houses going on within endless circles within circles. The neighborhood seems to be lost in time in this perfect 1950's setting.
Has Lucio found the perfect answer to ease the stress and demands of his 1950's homelife and his wife's mental problems? Not everyone puts up with DIANA's bizarre statements and behavior. Her sister even states, "Her (Diana's) only merit is to have a hubby who puts up with her."
Diana is agrees to to adopt a dog to cheer her up. The doctor states when she thinks maybe she is not crazy just depressed, " Don't mistake sadness with maddness." Before the dog adoption, the pseudoscientist wants her to check in to a medical clinic for a stay. Unfortunately, there is more than just puppy-love to contend with when Diana is checked into a specialized clinc which seems to be attached to the local SPCA.
DIANA's sister sees an opportunity to bed hunky LUCIO when DIANA is in the clinic. He refuses her numorous passes, she retorts, "You are stubborn, and NOT at all a man!"
LUCIO, a watch-repair person walks into the 'phrenopatico' clinic to see it the doctor's shelf filled with clocks in different states of array. " A clock that doesn't work gives a bad impression.", he says. This was his first clue that something was amiss with the clinic.
DIANA does go through the secret treatment which even the audience is not privey to, yet.
Everything seems fine when Diana returns home to her faithful husband until his wife starts to agree to unique requests such as a walk in a park and some other sexual favors. "Life is strange. Strange isn't strange.", responds his wife when questioned about her different attitudes. DIANA is aware that her sister is a pain-in-the-butt, "You must of loved me to put up with my family." No truer words were spoken. The sister states one of the best lines in the film when she sees the new dog, "Is that bitch Diana's replacement?"
The dotting husband wants to give his wife a guard dog to protect her & keep her company. Though he acknowledges, "It is the end of the guard dog's duties when you put a bitch (dog) that's in heat next to him." "True", says, the kennal owner, "Though, a dog doesn't guarentee happiness."
LUCIO wants to find out what happened to his wife. "I want my wife back" he tells the doctor when he returns to the clinic. The doctor states, "What's being normal? Not being normal?" LUCIO will not let go and he tries to investigate what is going on at the clinic.
He soons finds out but not before he gets overpowered and falls into the doctors plans. "Soulmigration. I put her soul in her dog." He quickly tries to escape but not before he writes a letter explaining his predictiment. Of course, LUCIO winds up as the new 'patient', though with a humourous abit sad ending.
This magical realism film was applauded and definately enjoyed by everyone. The Director ALEJANDRO CHOMSKI used the film as a metaphor for citizens who are controlled by totalarism and government. "It is very difficult for citizens to top the government from unfairness.", he stated. He wanted the film to be timeless with a feel of the 1950's, but the Film Designer wanted to have specific to get the sets and clothing in the right period. "OK, so it is 1952, in July, and the date is the 10th." The film hit the mark with it's erie tone and subdued color-neutral lighting. "I did not want extreme contrast. Everything had to have a "non-clearness". It is like another world. A fairytale in the past."
The audience remarked about the sharp style of the doctors and their building and environment. "Bad people have good taste." said the director.
There were several references to the Amercian film, 'The Stepford Wives". The 1950's feel was referenced because during that time everyone had a clear role, such as the husband was the 'breadwinner' and the wife ' the homemaker'.
Even the dogs in the film got a shout-out. "Actors should be as good actors as the dogs!", he responded and the audience 'howled'.

The Mayan ruins of Chichen Itza form Mexico's best known ancient site, as well as one of the most extensive. The monuments are hugely impressive and include some of the most iconic architectural statements surviving from Mayan culture, including the Temple of the Warriors, the enormous Ball Court and the great stepped pyramid known as El Castillo, the centrepiece of the first area of the city seen by the visitor from the site entrance.
The chief god worshipped here appears to have been Kukulkan (the Mayan form of Quetzelcoatl) whose open-jawed serpent heads adorn many of the main temple structures.
The city and it's monuments mostly date between 600-1200AD and thus exhibit a variety of styles, making this a kind of architectural open air museum or textbook on Mayan art, with most buildings following a more severe, monumental design (though often adorned with low relief), whilst a few in the southern group feature the lavish ornamentation of the Puuc style as seen at Uxmal.
Chichen Itza receives a far greater influx of visitors than Mexico's other ancient sites (being within easy shot of daytrippers from resorts like Cancun) and thus for their own protection most of the monuments are now roped off to prevent the wear and tear of thousands of feet climbing the pyramid and the many temple platforms. This was something of a disappointment to us having had so much more free reign to explore other sites, though having seen the numbers increase dramatically through the day can readily understand and support such measures.

"Construct" is a temporary process that exists for a while and finally transforms itself into an end "product": A building, a culture, a society, an idea, a freedom, a dogma, etc... Construction sites can be conceived as stages where this never-finishing process is being "performed"; over and over. The inherent incompleteness within the constructing act pushes us to dream; on the other hand, a completed product looses its narrative potential as it informs us on all the necessary pieces that constitute the whole: There is no puzzle to solve or no story to write... Construction sites, in this sense, are like historical ruins; Paul Zucker asserts that "Devastated by time or willful destruction, incomplete as they are, ruins represent a combination of man-made forms and of organic nature." As a tribute to and resting on this statement, the more incomplete the "construct" is; the more organic life gets, the more surprises and the less boundaries we have...
"İnşa" bir süre için varolan ve sonunda bitmiş bir "ürün"e dönüşen geçici bir süreçtir: Bir yapı, kültür, toplum, fikir, özgürlük veya dogma... İnşaatlar ise bu hiç bitmeyen sürecin devamlı "icra edildiği" sahneler olarak algılanabilir. İnşa eyleminin doğasında olan tamamlanmamışlık bizi hayal kurmaya iter; diğer taraftan, tamamlanmış bir ürün bütünü oluşturan tüm detayları sergilediği için öyküsel potansiyelini kaybeder: Çözecek bir bilmece veya yazacak bir hikaye yoktur... İnşaatlar, bu anlamda, tarihi ören yerleri gibidir; Paul Zucker "zamanın etkisi veya bilinçli harap etmeyle enkaz haline gelen 'noksan' ören yerleri, insan yapısı formlar ve organik doğanın bileşimini temsil ederler" diyerek bu sava katkıda bulunuyor. Bu ifadeye istinaden, "inşa" ne kadar tamamlanmamış olursa; hayat o derece organikleşir, sürprizler çoğalır ve sınırlar azalır...
The closing statements in the case of The Prosecutor v. Bosco Ntaganda at the International Criminal Court (ICC) started on 28 August 2018 before Trial Chamber VI at the seat of the Court in The Hague (Netherlands).
Statements were made by the Office of the Prosecutor, the Defence for Mr Ntaganda and the Legal Representatives of the Victims. Trial Chamber VI is composed of Judge Robert Fremr, Presiding Judge, Judge Chang-ho Chung and Judge Kuniko Ozaki.
The imposing Freemasons Hall in Great Queen Street is the headquarters of the United Grand Lodge of England. It makes a grand statement in its mixture of classical and Art Deco styles, having been built between 1927-33, the third masonic complex on this site. The architects were H.V.Ashley and F.Winton Newman.
The Hall takes part in London Open House in September to enable the public to see the beautiful interiors here. The members on duty were very welcoming and informative, clearly proud of their traditions and eager to share something of them. The interior design and finish everywhere is of very high quality, with superb decorative flourishes in metalwork and glass.
The stairwells contains good pieces of stained glass, whilst the main hall (the 'Grand Temple') is magnificently decorated with mosaics adorning the ceiling and bronze doors decorated with reliefs, the visual climax of the complex.
The Hall is normally open to members of the Freemasons only, but there are guided tours on most days to enable members of the public to see inside.
