Many a time I've snapped off a frame acting on nothing more than pure impulse. It's usually kick-started by a momentary feeling of weirdness or oddness in the world around me. I think we've all experienced that at one time or another. You see something that causes a feeling of uncertainty, possibly anxiety, or just confusion (or any number of other emotions). There's usually no apparent basis for these moments, they just hit you and often pass just as suddenly. For me anyway, there's often no visual cue; sometimes it's more a matter of crossing into some space or unseen energy field. These can be fixed in a certain space or completely transitory. I might experience it in a certain place one day, then never again in that exact spot. Other places seem to harness the energy and tend to raise that mental awareness each and every time I pass there (like a Ley line). There's one place in a local cemetery that causes me that sensation. I discovered it quite by accident one day. It's a fairly strong current of energy; actually causes goosebumps to raise on my skin. And it's a very narrow corridor. I can move into it, and right back out again with just a couple of steps. What I've come to notice is the ability to channel this energy into the visual realm. It's simply a matter of responding the moment you feel something like taking photos. It's not a good time to question the why or where, or worry too much about composition. I rely more on instinct for all of that. I truly believe it's a case of the universe picking the moment to shoot a photo rather than you. This photo is a case in point. I was walking down the street, totally preoccupied in thought when I was gripped with that weird energy flow. I immediately raised the camera and this is the resulting image. It's just a neighborhood house but somehow I've captured a dark aura. It's like looking at the photo of a crime scene; the outward beauty and charm of the house and yard belied by a sense of grimness. I can't help but think that a few seconds delay in taking the photo would have resulted in the energy diminishing. I think the dark aura would have lifted and the house would appear normal again.

I have no conscious memory about the rest of the trip--only weird images and hallucinations of passing through ancient civilizations, scorched lands, and modern cities. I was caught in a psychedelic collage of historical moments that bore little resemblance to reality as I knew it. Where was I? Where was home?

Retired Time Traveller Dr. Cyber sits in his jammies pondering what happened to Timmy, his sidekick and faithful friend. While relaxing in his hypno lazyboy, a time vortex appeared momentarily. It dropped a note. IT'S TIMMY, HELP US! 2089. Dr Cyber's daughter, Dr. Alicia Cyber, now takes the mantle of TIME CRUISERS... to find Timmy and save the universe.
This blue-winged teal has dunked his head and brought up a load of water, which he spreads on his back.

Having completed the important things on the list of what to do when someone dies, Peter decided he wanted to take me to John Lewis in Oxford Street to buy me a present for my birthday which is later this week. Are you really taking a camera? he asked - thinking of us walking to the station, taking a train to Highbury & Islington and from there the Victoria line to Oxford Street, a quick dash into John Lewis and back . . .
For some reason, these Royal Spoonbills love this sandbar on the northern edge of the Pauatahanui - probably because it's isolated from the rest of the world by thick and very soft mud! (And trust me: I know just how thick and soft it is!!!).
Because it is isolated from two-legged pests called Humans, the birds are quite comfortable having a Siesta Time in the middle of what was a lovely warm Spring the day!
One other thing...: if you look carefully, you might note that some of these birds are wearing Mating plumage on the back of their necks...
On previous occasions, attempts to photograph these Spoonbills from the road has been challenging to say the least, but with the use of a Monopod, camera shake has been over-come! (Yay!).
The photo bomber in the background is a Black Swan!
Keep smiling, thanks for visiting my Site, and thanks for taking the time and trouble to leave a Comment. It's always nice to hear from you...!
Finalmente o recesso chegou \o/
Nessas duas semanas, espero rever alguns amigos, mudar meu cabelo de uma vez, estudar, fotografar e assistir a vários filmes que não pude ver... Agosto já começa cheio de compromissos e é bom dar uma recarregada né!? :)
Como estão? Voltando de férias, saindo das férias ou nem as tiveram? :S
Tenham todos uma ótima semana!
Beijos! ♥

Victor, minha vida *-* acabamos de nos falar pelo celular e já sinto tanto a falta da sua voz! Estou morrendo de saudades de você! Eu te amo muito, muito mesmo! Perto de completarmos 9 meses de namoro, vejo que oque sinto hoje é imensamente mais forte que há meses atrás. Estamos crescendo juntos e nosso amor também tem amadurecido.

All the best and Merry Christmas to my dear flickr-friends - always maintain focus on the essential things in life. :-)
A WC southbound was rolling through the soon-to-be double-tracked mainline at Prospect Heights in October of 2001.
In a month's time, the Metra station and the double-track would be open for business and the WC power would be Canadian National property.
