Excerpt from postcity.com:
At the young age of 15, Daniel Mazzone had hardly a penny to his name, homeless on the streets of Toronto. Now, the emerging artist’s work can be seen up high at the corner of Yonge Street and St. Clair Avenue.
The display, commissioned by Slate Asset Management, which owns all four corners of the intersection, represents Mazzone’s first crack at street art. Charlie Chaplin, James Dean and Michael Jackson are but a few of the icons depicted in the collage mosaic that spans approximately 250 feet of the building at 2 St. Clair Avenue West. It was put up in late January.
“I lived on the street for about five years. I finished high school when I was 22 and I decided to go to university for business,” said Mazzone, adding that he then pursued a career as a mortgage broker, which was short-lived.
“I just found that I wasn’t very happy. So I started doing artwork, just for fun, just as an outlet. I had some newspapers and magazines and so I thought whatever, I started messing around,” he said.
He quit his job when his first painting sold for $14,000 in 2014, right off the wall of the restaurant he used to work at near Yonge and Eglinton. Since then, the 37-year-old has earned a name for himself as a successful artist. Toronto Blue Jays right fielder Jose Bautista has purchased nine of his paintings, and Marcus Stroman recently bought one of Jackie Robinson.
The collage is just one of many changes coming to the midtown neighbourhood. Toronto City Council will also vote on Jan. 31 to approve a business improvement area (BIA) for the intersection.
Near St. Roman, Germany (Blackwood Forest), my wife was so kind to wait...
A mosaic stitch from eight shots
In this shot you can see the Angels Stadium on the left, Disneyland in the center and the Honda Center to the right where the lame Ducks play.

Haven't posted any HDR shots in a while so I thought this 6ex would be nice. This is the place that has more days of sunshine then any other place in the United States. Those clouds you see there are rare....
Thanks for looking and have a great night or day, and find time to relax...

So since I haven't gotten any shooting done I have been going through older shots. Shots I just passed by for others that caught my eye. Somehow this one got looked over and should not have. Then I couldn't decide on what to post, maybe a night shot, or a person, or this landscape and this won.
For your enjoyment Carry me across the mountain
Have a great weekend everyone. If you don't own a bike, think about getting one. I haven't shot much this week since I been processing three shoots and a mini vacation, I really need to do something new. I have a creepy idea involving a spooky nurse that I can't wait to bring it to life.
Take Care.....

Since I haven't shot anything this week and because everyone seems to like these bike shots I thought I'd post another. This is also to thank everyone in the Winners Circle group that voted for my shot to be the icon. It was one just like this but not the same bikers, you can see them and others here.
Have a great week, or what's left of it.
I'm not even sure what to say about this, hope you had a great holiday weekend.
and see the others here

Just another skyline shot from the same set just another side and lots of color. I was out looking for the eclipse through all these clouds. Never even saw it.
Drink it in and Enjoy! I promise I won't flood you with all the sky shots of this night. It is the last one from this set I'll post. I have one more that I like but I'll save it for later.....
Edit: Feb. 26
Thank you for all your kind words, its very inspiring to hear everyone express enjoyment in this shot. After all, I did have to climb to get it.

I'm not a huge fan of portraits and models. But this idea came from a great movie maker. This shot has too much noise for my liking but I guess gritty works with this, I had to crank the ISO up since it was getting dark. Bad thing is that those are my guns pointed at me..
Hope you enjoy my first shot with models that were not homeless....

Nothing much to say about this one other then it's big, metal and pushes around dirt. I'm glad to be shooting again, I got in a rut or funk or just too busy and sick the last few months.
But now I'm feeling better, haven't smoked in 3 months and I'm back on the bike doing about 10 miles a day and I'm married now. Oh and I've stopped eating fast food and now working on the whole eating better thing and I feel I'm doing damn well. If you know me then I'm sure your surprised. I've always lived a pretty toxic life before..
Hope your all doing fine as well...
I did this shot a little earlier tonight but as I look out my window I'm noticing something. If I were shooting this now I'd be getting the almost full moon rise. It's big and orange right now. Also it's kind of tough to find good freeway shots in California, they are mostly blocked with fences....
Hope you had a great weekend
Took a client to the top of the world to see if she could balance on top of a rock with 360 views and high winds. Good news is she didn't fall off any rocks...

Please help contribute to this ongoing project by sending me the names of female filmmakers not yet included on this list. Thanks! -B
So our time at the lake was nice, though I seem to have gotten food poisoning or something that floored me for the first couple days up there. That's where the name came from since that's how I felt after the sickness.
Next is that this shot is proof I've been up early enough to see the sunrise. Many friends would till you I've never been awake to see this happen and since I slept so much during the day being sick I managed to get this off our patio view of the lake.

American postcard by Fotofolio, New York, N.Y., no. JC13. Photo: John Chan, 1988.
Blonde and blue-eyed American actress Uma Thurman (1970) is best known for her roles in Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction (1994), Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003) and Kill Bill: Vol. 2 (2004) and was hailed as Tarantino's muse. Furthermore, she starred in a wide variety of films, from romantic comedies and dramas to science fiction and action films.
Uma Karuna Thurman was born in 1970 in Boston, Massachusetts, into a highly unorthodox and internationally-minded family. She is the daughter of Nena Thurman (née Birgitte Caroline von Schlebrügge), a fashion model and socialite who now runs a mountain retreat, and of Robert Thurman (Robert Alexander Farrar Thurman), a professor and academic who is one of the nation's foremost Buddhist scholars. Uma grew up in Amherst, Massachusetts, where her father worked at Amherst College. Thurman's household was one in which The Dalai Lama was an occasional guest; she and her siblings all have names deriving from Buddhist mythology; and Middle American behaviour was little understood, much less pursued. And so it was that the young Thurman confronted childhood with an odd name and eccentric home life - and nature seemingly conspired against her as well. She is six feet tall, and from an early age Uma towered over everyone else in her class. The family constantly relocated, making the gangly, socially inept Thurman perpetually the new kid in class. The result was an exceptionally awkward, self-conscious, lonely, and alienated childhood. Unsurprisingly, the young Thurman enjoyed making believe she was someone other than herself, and so thrived at acting in school plays. This interest, and her lanky frame, perfect for modeling, led the 15-year-old Thurman to New York City for high school and modeling work (including a layout in Glamour Magazine) as she sought acting roles. The roles soon came. She made her film debut in the teen thriller Kiss Daddy Goodnight (Peter Ily Huemer, 1987). It was followed by Terry Gilliam's interesting box office bomb, The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1988), starring John Neville. She made a brief appearance as the goddess Venus, and during her entrance, she briefly appears nude, in an homage to Botticelli's 'The Birth of Venus'. Then followed her breakthrough in Dangerous Liaisons (Stephen Frears, 1988) from a screenplay by Christopher Hampton, which was based on the 1782 French novel 'Les liaisons dangereuses' by Pierre Choderlos de Laclos. The period romantic drama, starring Glenn Close, John Malkovich, and Michelle Pfeiffer, brought much attention to her unorthodox sensuality. Her performance intriguingly combined innocence and worldliness. The weird, gangly girl became a sex symbol virtually overnight.
Uma Thurman continued to be offered good roles in Hollywood pictures into the early 1990s, the least commercially successful but probably best-known of which was her smoldering, astonishingly-adult performance as June, Henry Miller's wife, in Henry & June (Philip Kaufman, 1990), the first film to actually receive the dreaded NC-17 rating in the USA. After a celebrated start, Thurman's career stalled in the early 1990s with films such as the mediocre Mad Dog and Glory (John McNaughton, 1993) with Robert De Niro. Worse, her first starring role was in Even Cowgirls Get the Blues (Gus Van Sant, 1993), which had endured a tortured journey from cult-favorite book to big-budget film and was a critical and financial debacle. Uma bounced back with a brilliant performance as Mia Wallace, that most unorthodox of all gangster's molls, in Tarantino's lauded, hugely successful Pulp Fiction (Quentin Tarantino, 1994). For her role, Thurman was nominated for the Academy Award, the BAFTA Award, and the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress. She took little advantage of her new-found fame by choosing not to do any big-budget films for the next three years. She starred in the independent period drama A Month by the Lake (John Irvin, 1995) opposite Vanessa Redgrave and Edward Fox, and supporting roles in which she has lent some glamorous presence to a mixed batch of films, such as Beautiful Girls (Ted Demme, 1996) with Matt Dillon, and The Truth About Cats & Dogs (Michael Lehmann, 1996). She played supervillain Poison Ivy in the reviled Batman & Robin (Joel Schumacher, 1997) with George Clooney, and Emma Peel opposite Ralph Fiennes as John Steed in a remake of The Avengers (Jeremiah Chechik, 1998). She worked with Woody Allen and Sean Penn on Sweet and Lowdown (1999), and starred in Richard Linklater's drama Tape (2001) opposite husband Ethan Hawke. Thurman also won a Golden Globe award for her turn in the made-for-television film Hysterical Blindness (2002), directed by Mira Nair.
A return to the mainstream spotlight came when Uma Thurman re-teamed with Quentin Tarantino for Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003). The two had dreamed up this two-part revenge action film on the set of Pulp Fiction (1994). Thurman starred as the Bride, who swears revenge on a team of assassins (Lucy Liu, Michael Madsen, Daryl Hannah, and Vivica A. Fox) and their leader, Bill (David Carradine), after they try to kill her and her unborn child. She then turned up in the John Woo cautioner Paycheck (2003) that same year. The renewed attention was not altogether welcome because Thurman was dealing with the break-up of her marriage with Hawke at about this time. Thurman handled the situation with grace, however, and took her surging popularity in stride. She garnered critical acclaim for her work in Kill Bill: Vol. 2 (Quentin Tarantino, 2004) and was hailed as Tarantino's muse. The two Kill Bill films brought her two additional Golden Globe Award nominations. Thurman reunited with Pulp Fiction dance partner John Travolta for the Get Shorty (Barry Sonnenfeld, 1995) sequel Be Cool (F. Gary Gray, 2005). Despite a lukewarm critical reception, the film grossed US$95 million. She played Ulla in the remake of The Producers (Susan Stroman, 2005). In 2006, she was made a Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters (Chevalier De l'Ordre Des Arts Et Des Lettres) by France. For her five-episode role in the musical TV series Smash (2012), Thurman received a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama Series. Her later films include Lars von Trier's Nymphomaniac (2013) and The House That Jack Built (2018).

Blonde and blue-eyed American actress Uma Thurman (1970) is best known for her roles in Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction (1994), Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003) and Kill Bill: Vol. 2 (2004) and was hailed as Tarantino's muse. Furthermore, she starred in a wide variety of films, from romantic comedies and dramas to science fiction and action films.
Uma Karuna Thurman was born in 1970 in Boston, Massachusetts, into a highly unorthodox and internationally-minded family. She is the daughter of Nena Thurman (née Birgitte Caroline von Schlebrügge), a fashion model and socialite who now runs a mountain retreat, and of Robert Thurman (Robert Alexander Farrar Thurman), a professor and academic who is one of the nation's foremost Buddhist scholars. Uma grew up in Amherst, Massachusetts, where her father worked at Amherst College. Thurman's household was one in which The Dalai Lama was an occasional guest; she and her siblings all have names deriving from Buddhist mythology; and Middle American behaviour was little understood, much less pursued. And so it was that the young Thurman confronted childhood with an odd name and eccentric home life - and nature seemingly conspired against her as well. She is six feet tall, and from an early age Uma towered over everyone else in her class. The family constantly relocated, making the gangly, socially inept Thurman perpetually the new kid in class. The result was an exceptionally awkward, self-conscious, lonely, and alienated childhood. Unsurprisingly, the young Thurman enjoyed making believe she was someone other than herself, and so thrived at acting in school plays. This interest, and her lanky frame, perfect for modeling, led the 15-year-old Thurman to New York City for high school and modeling work (including a layout in Glamour Magazine) as she sought acting roles. The roles soon came. She made her film debut in the teen thriller Kiss Daddy Goodnight (Peter Ily Huemer, 1987). It was followed by Terry Gilliam's interesting box office bomb, The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1988), starring John Neville. She made a brief appearance as the goddess Venus, and during her entrance, she briefly appears nude, in an homage to Botticelli's 'The Birth of Venus'. Then followed her breakthrough in Dangerous Liaisons (Stephen Frears, 1988) from a screenplay by Christopher Hampton, which was based on the 1782 French novel 'Les liaisons dangereuses' by Pierre Choderlos de Laclos. The period romantic drama, starring Glenn Close, John Malkovich, and Michelle Pfeiffer, brought much attention to her unorthodox sensuality. Her performance intriguingly combined innocence and worldliness. The weird, gangly girl became a sex symbol virtually overnight.
Uma Thurman continued to be offered good roles in Hollywood pictures into the early 1990s, the least commercially successful but probably best-known of which was her smoldering, astonishingly-adult performance as June, Henry Miller's wife, in Henry & June (Philip Kaufman, 1990), the first film to actually receive the dreaded NC-17 rating in the USA. After a celebrated start, Thurman's career stalled in the early 1990s with films such as the mediocre Mad Dog and Glory (John McNaughton, 1993) with Robert De Niro. Worse, her first starring role was in Even Cowgirls Get the Blues (Gus Van Sant, 1993), which had endured a tortured journey from cult-favorite book to big-budget film and was a critical and financial debacle. Uma bounced back with a brilliant performance as Mia Wallace, that most unorthodox of all gangster's molls, in Tarantino's lauded, hugely successful Pulp Fiction (Quentin Tarantino, 1994). For her role, Thurman was nominated for the Academy Award, the BAFTA Award, and the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress. She took little advantage of her new-found fame by choosing not to do any big-budget films for the next three years. She starred in the independent period drama A Month by the Lake (John Irvin, 1995) opposite Vanessa Redgrave and Edward Fox, and supporting roles in which she has lent some glamorous presence to a mixed batch of films, such as Beautiful Girls (Ted Demme, 1996) with Matt Dillon, and The Truth About Cats & Dogs (Michael Lehmann, 1996). She played supervillain Poison Ivy in the reviled Batman & Robin (Joel Schumacher, 1997) with George Clooney, and Emma Peel opposite Ralph Fiennes as John Steed in a remake of The Avengers (Jeremiah Chechik, 1998). She worked with Woody Allen and Sean Penn on Sweet and Lowdown (1999), and starred in Richard Linklater's drama Tape (2001) opposite husband Ethan Hawke. Thurman also won a Golden Globe award for her turn in the made-for-television film Hysterical Blindness (2002), directed by Mira Nair.
A return to the mainstream spotlight came when Uma Thurman re-teamed with Quentin Tarantino for Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003). The two had dreamed up this two-part revenge action film on the set of Pulp Fiction (1994). Thurman starred as the Bride, who swears revenge on a team of assassins (Lucy Liu, Michael Madsen, Daryl Hannah, and Vivica A. Fox) and their leader, Bill (David Carradine), after they try to kill her and her unborn child. She then turned up in the John Woo cautioner Paycheck (2003) that same year. The renewed attention was not altogether welcome because Thurman was dealing with the break-up of her marriage with Hawke at about this time. Thurman handled the situation with grace, however, and took her surging popularity in stride. She garnered critical acclaim for her work in Kill Bill: Vol. 2 (Quentin Tarantino, 2004) and was hailed as Tarantino's muse. The two Kill Bill films brought her two additional Golden Globe Award nominations. Thurman reunited with Pulp Fiction dance partner John Travolta for the Get Shorty (Barry Sonnenfeld, 1995) sequel Be Cool (F. Gary Gray, 2005). Despite a lukewarm critical reception, the film grossed US$95 million. She played Ulla in the remake of The Producers (Susan Stroman, 2005). In 2006, she was made a Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters (Chevalier De l'Ordre Des Arts Et Des Lettres) by France. For her five-episode role in the musical TV series Smash (2012), Thurman received a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama Series. Her later films include Lars von Trier's Nymphomaniac (2013) and The House That Jack Built (2018). She made her Broadway debut in Beau Willimon's political drama 'The Parisian Woman' (2017-2018) at Hudson Theatre.

This is my first time trying out some new ghetto lighting I put together. I think it worked out well and did a great job of wrapping around her with no harsh shadow, other then the dark harsh shadow on the wall but that was done in a separate shot. It also has my favorite piece of art and in my opinion the only good one the artist did.
Hope your having a hauntingly smooth week....

Been getting out more and starting to ride again, trying to get in about 10 miles a day to build up the lung now that were out. Still dealing with the move but starting to get a handle on things. This was taken yesterday on ride I did around our new place, this is a park I grew up going to so it's fun going back.
Hope your all doing well, take care...
Where do bad folks go when they die
They don't go to heaven where the angels fly
Go to a lake of fire and fry
See them again 'till the Fourth of July
