[Papaver orientale “Royal Wedding”]
This poppy in my garden has received the most love, care and attention I could possibly lavish on it, over the past few weeks. I transferred it from a pot in the yard to a new rock container that I made, in the new part of the garden. Initially, it was quite happy and produced a beautiful, large, white flower with a deep purple centre....Then it drooped!!
I decided to get a forked twig to hold up the very delicate head and this seemed to work for a couple of days. Today - the petals are falling off. Such a traumatic time. Who knew?
There are another four flower heads almost ready to bloom, though. Deep breath...

"For however else you and I differ from each other and from the great creative people of history, we share that we are broken, messy people, dogged by fears and traumas, buoyed now and then by hopes and joys. And when we accomplish any great and beautiful thing—at whatever scale we make it—it is not made because we lack fear or possess remarkable genes; it is because in all our human weakness, and from the middle of stories fraught with complications, we do the work and pour ourselves into it."

Doing the work...
At last, some Winter imagery. It took a long time for my part of the world to get a significant snowfall, one at least useful for creating images. So before it goes away and we're all on to Spring, I thought I'd better get some up. A slight detour from the abstraction.
A very cold Winter evening looking off my big city balcony. The light seemed just right. A few seconds later it was too dark and that eery, haunting Winter twilight was gone.
At first, panoramic distortion, or, "pano-sabotage" seems perhaps to be DE-structive or implying some kind of trauma to reality. Anything that shakes up our everyday view of the world, if not fully understood, becomes largely associated with the disruption of what keeps us "safe". Like abstraction, "pano-sabotage", offers up a different view of what we call reality. A different view, perhaps a multiplicity of views ... simultaneously. With the coming of the Quantum Age, multi-simultanaeity of possibilities will become how we create and navigate that world.
The title harkens back to two pre-Winter images I posted back in the late Fall, "November Town" ( #'s 1 & 2 ).

Ended up making and modding like hell to make this but happy with the outcome. End result was suppose to be a sci-fi scientist of sorts but turned into a trauma thot. Still adore it.
Hopefully in the future I'll take more of her...Or a future RP char *shrugs* ❤

Ayer hice un acto de fe, y tras haber habido un enganchón por la mañana en Ataquines por la tarde dieron una vía expedita y me animé a acudir a la imperial para ver si iban dando paso a varios trenes.
Después del paso por Mingorría de uno de los Irún - Abroñigal desviados por las obras de la L.200, salí pitando para Navalgrande porque quería explorar el encuadre que podéis ver en la foto para esta hora de la tarde en los días de verano. Cuando llegué, efectivamente había foto y muy bonita, pero lamentablemente dudo que vaya a volver jamás, ya que en 15 minutos de espera hasta 5 garrapatas llegué a despojarme de encima. Una situación bastante asquerosa que no recomiendo a nadie, así que seguramente me quedaré con las ganas de pillar aquí un tren más vistoso que este chatarrero Vallecas Industrial - Vilar Formoso remolcado por la 335.005 de Transfesa.
[EN] The Transfesa scrap train Vallecas - Vilar Formoso goes trough the Navalgrande station as the evening sun begins to set between the mountains. Tick infested area, be careful!
One for mommy,
One for daddy,
One for me,
And none for you
And when we’ve taken everything from you
You have to clean up this mess
A couple days ago there was a thick fog in the air early in the morning. Seeing this, I felt compelled to go outside and capture the mystery and change in usual atmosphere I saw. I’m thankful I did allow myself to spend a little time outside in our yard and on our road. At first it was challenging to make any pictures I was pleased with. And eventually I was able to appreciate my time outside, a little extra exercise and some of the images I captured. I took this picture next to our home.
In honor of the brave Men,Women and Children who endured hell on earth during Australia's worst bush fires in history.
Acknowledging the trauma experienced from Men, Women, Children, our wildlife and farm stock, all creatures great and small.
Small steps on the road to recovery. The ramifications for communities, cities will be huge.
May we continue to stand united as one as we rebuild, heal and dig deep for the strength when the going get's too tough.
We witnessed humanity at it's very best, courage beyond belief, stories of terror and miraculous escapes from hell on earth.
To the many men and women who sacrificed their lives including Canadian Firefighters - we Salute you and will never forget you. R.I.P.
Bravery
My fuck it flower has BLOOMED!

I was the victim yesterday- something you don't ever expect.- of a vicious dog attack. I managed to jump and run fast enough and put some small trees between me and the dog, but I can tell you all, I am not the "jumping and running" type lately with my still-recovering knee from surgery. Hey, my age alone says i am not into that . . . I am still shaky. The dog belongs to the neighbor's "almost"-ex husband's, and she can't control it at all. He is a big white Sheppard, about 100+ lbs. I had taken the garbage up the hill for pickup and the neighbor lady, drove up from work. We were chatting through her car window when the dog came around and began to lunge and attack. I tried to hold my ground but when he got to withint about 4 inches and I could feel the breath from his snarls, I figured that was enough.
I believe that the dog would have killed me or badly mangled me and would he not let me turn my back on him to get back to the house. This is not the first time he has behaved so, and and she knows he has been a problem for people before . . . Even right off our back deck . . . The neighbor was as terrified as I was- well, maybe not. When I finally decided I had to try and run, I was making a conscious sacrifice to know that I didn’t want him to rip off my arm or my bad right knee.
Ken came home early to be sure I was okay and he talked to the lady. They will keep the dog up until something can be done with him. It is still a wonder he hasn't bitten someone before. I couldn't help but imagine the small children next door who come down with their parents to play on the river . . .
This SO sux, and I hate being scared like that- felt like I might have a heart attack . . .
DO NOT BE THIS PERSON! "Trauma dumping is when someone shares their traumatic experiences in an overwhelming way, often without the other person's consent. It can be harmful to mental health and friendships."
Je voulais faire un gros flou de bougé et en fait j'ai rippé de mode, et je suis resté en priorité ouverture plutot que le mode manuel ...
Mais l'ambiance, meme avec ce léger flou, me plait bien.
I believe in persistency sometimes determinedly so, obstinate in the face of adversity. I believe in forever and 3 days, in dreams and soulmates, fairytales. I believe in wild, glorious, delicious dynamic that sings and hums through every communication. I believe in vibrant, luminous, electric, vital and deep connection. I believe in intensity that radiates heat, scatters stars, shivers in the air like a lightning storm, dances beneath your skin, makes you nervous, elated, hungry, naked. I believe in words that make you drown and leave you numb. I believe in intimacy. Also, I am not so narratively gracious sometimes. In which case i apologise.
Gazelle Twin - Heartbeat
Everything you did, was watching me
Waiting for my next mistake
And with every mistake
You’ll get angry at me
Screamed at me
Telling me, I’m not worth it
I can’t do anything right
You treated me like this since the day I was born
So you taught me to be mad at myself for every single mistake
And so on I had to punish myself
I started to cut myself
For every single mistake I did
Now look at me
My chest is completely sliced
My body ain’t healing anymore
And you’re still just watching
Till I cut my heart
Till I faint
And lay motionless on the ground
And you’re still watching
One of many photos I’ve taken from the passenger seat as we spend at least 6 hours in the car on a weekly basis driving twice each week to my neurofeedback therapy appointments. This practice of seeing, appreciating and capturing my surroundings from the moving car can sometimes be very helpful for me.

____________________________
As a way to cope with circumstances beyond my control, survive and work to keep fighting for life I decided to try to take at least one photo (or more) each day. I call this “a photo (or more) a day.” Practicing this form of therapeutic photography helps me work to focus on the present moment, gives me something familiar and enjoyable to focus on as I use photography skills that have become like second-nature to me and being able to view the images I capture helps me recall what I was thinking, feeling and noticing at the moment when I created the photos. More of the photos from this series can be seen on my Instagram account
I may not always have the energy, time or capacity to share photos from this series—especially with the very challenging circumstances my family and I are experiencing—and will do my best to continue taking a photo (or more) a day even if I’m not able to share.
If you would like to support my work and my family, one way you can do so is by ordering my zines:
Many thanks for your support.

'Condition of subject is problematic. In addition to the fractures and lacerations sustained on impact after her VTOL was shot down - Which I'd like to be on record as saying was idiotic and irresponsable - she also has 3rd tier burns on the majority of her body from the burning fuel leaking from ruptured fuel tanks. I recommend that the Arulan Cartel is immediately reprimanded for this. That this rare chance at NATO intel could be handled so indelicately is beyond infuriating, it's insanity. How can South America ever achieve independance with people such as this heading our operations?
On the rare occasion we bring the subject back up from her sedative induced sleep, she constantly mutters the word 'Morrow'. I do not know to what this refers to. Tomorrow? It is difficult to say.'

As some of you know - I recently had so called "boo boo"...
I can not walk and I'm in pain - which is not so bad coz I'm allowed to take very strong pain killers- after which I am very dizzy and very happy :)
But everything has a bad side - today I had to change bandage on my own and let me tell you - do not let any surgeons near you...ever! Never ever - it can end up badly - trust me :)
But anyway - I guess it's true what they say - inspiration comes from pain and trauma :P
