2012 vs. 2017
Not that it's been that warm, we just haven't had the combination of cold conditions and precipitation. I won't be doing much cross-country skiing for a while; OTOH, I won't be straining my back shoveling snow.
I went to Gaja today for really no reason. I accidently took a wrong turn and ended up at this Wat. I was hoping to get a shot of this monk sweeping, but he stopped to rub his back right when I pulled the trigger. The shot's a little blurry as a result, but I really like the pose and crop out of camera so I don't want to pass it up.
The straining tower at Vyrnwy marks the beginning of a 70 mile aqueduct which supplies Liverpool with water. Taken on Christmas Day 2019, the lake was perfectly still making an almost perfect reflection of the tower and the trees behind it.
Hand of Peace. Horizonal side-step "In the Round" multi-exposure technique with cataract eyes.
For years I have been living with cataracts, which have worsened this past year, especially in my left eye, to the point where I wasn't able to drive at night safely. Even during the day, eye strain became headaches, but I never put my camera down. Luckily my right eye wasn't as bad, but of late, that eye has become increasingly troublesome. Difficult to manually focus on just about anything, my saving grace was the old school technique of quickly turning the focusing collar from very blurry to ok blurry, then tweak it a bit to the best of blurry. Yes, there is auto focus, which I do use with a small amount of distrust in the older Pentax line during any fast action shooting. Its accurate, it's just slow, but a blessing.
A trip overseas started on the same day that I could of have scheduled my cataract surgery, no earlier appointments where available, damn luck. I had to schedule it a week after our return. So off we go, once in a lifetime, to see other parts of the world, all of us having the clarity and vision of a young child, except for me. But with my good humor, I joked that I would see twice as much as them, with my blurry eyes and occasional double vision. I also noted that the women at the pool, in thongs, I would only see them half-assed so not to worry about any gawking...as I sit with my 300mm at poolside!
It was a fantastic trip. We had a tremendous and fun time. The weather was perfect, and the people were kind and friendly. To bear witness to other cultures and traditions was remarkable and unforgettable. Despite my terrible vision, it seemed that my mind overcame most of the visual inaccuracies and I too, could view the world with a wee bit of clarity. Simply a beautiful world.
I had cataract surgery on my left eye the 15th of this month. Thinking that my right eye was not as bad as the left, I'll be back shooting in manual soon, and shooting in general, I thought. Not so. My right eye is so bad, compared to the new vibrant, crystal clear and sharp left, that now it's even harder to pick up my camera and photograph with confidence. The images through the viewfinder are a dingy yellowish in color with softness and no contrast. And to think that was my good eye all these years!
I'm scheduled to have surgery on my right eye in early December. The surgery is life changing, bringing such a rebirth of vision to these "Vintage eyes".
Peace in Hand, at the port of Kusadasi, Turkey.
Though petals are soft indeed, to keep their beauty, they must be straining and keeping the most beautiful pose of themselves.
Lake Vyrnwy is man-made, with the dam that created it completed in 1888. The village of Llanwddyn was submerged by the lake. In dry summers, if the water level drops far enough, the ruins of the old village reappear.
The Straining Tower at Lake Vyrnwy looks like part of a fairytale castle. In reality, its purpose is to filter or strain out material in the water with a fine metal mesh, before the water flows along the aqueduct to Liverpool
again trying out different finishes....
thanks for looking in....appreciated......best bigger....hope you have a Great Day
literally every day i spill coffee on myself. this morning i spilled it on my computer and homework, and just now i missed my mouth and poured it down my front and bed. ugh, why does this happen.
every time i plan out a picture now, i end up doing something tooootally different, but when i plan nothing i never have a clue what to do. it's so bizarre, i don't know what's wrong with me. and also i have to say lol to the leaf in my hair, because i had put a bunch in but after running back and forth to click the self-timer button the rest fell out.

This is the second day of the Thaipusam festival when the believers pay their penance to the gods by having hooks threaded through their skin and walking 5 kilometres to the temple. The ones in their backs look bad but the ones going through the cheeks actually go through the tongue too so that they cannot even speak. The cans they carry are full of milk which seemingly has a significance as everybody carries this to the temple to be blessed. After seeing this I am quite pleased he isn't my God :-))
Angels from the Realms of Glory
Wing your flight o’er all the earth;
Ye who sang creation’s story
Now proclaim Messiah’s birth.
Shepherds, in the field abiding,
Watching o’er your flocks by night,
God with us is now residing;
Yonder shines the infant light:
Sinners, wrung with true repentance,
Doomed for guilt to endless pains,
Justice now revokes the sentence,
Mercy calls you; break your chains.
Though an Infant now we view Him,
He shall fill His Father’s throne,
Gather all the nations to Him;
Every knee shall then bow down:
All creation, join in praising
God, the Father, Spirit, Son,
Evermore your voices raising
To th’eternal Three in One.
James Montgomery
Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er the plains,
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains.

The scene at Broadway and Exchange Place next to the New York Stock Exchange complex on the morning of, November 17th in New York City. It looks like the NYPD officer was either in urgent need for a latte, having flashbacks to the Strain trilogy by Guillermo Del Torro, or some serious anger management issues.
