NZ Trials training ran their first small group training day in July 2019 at Western Valley near Little River. The property is known for being slippery in the gullies, and the rain over the previous couple of days ensured it was the perfect venue to learn new skills. The days comprised one group in the morning which is when these photos were taken, then my turn in the afternoon. We started on a slippery hill which was difficult to walk up and were shown how to ride up and how to keep moving to prevent a five. Over the course of riding a number of sections we were given guidance on braking, clutch control, body position, and gear selection. The drizzly weather wasn’t noticeable under the trees and the day gave me some advice on riding the slippery conditions I have always struggled with. Thanks to Jules assisted by David and Derek. All I have to do now is unlearn some of my bad riding habits.

Jules ran a second training day at McQueens Valley the next day, and has a number of other training days planned. At present these are Kaikoura on 10/11 August and in the North Island at Lake Kimihia near Huntly on 25 August.

Enjoy the photos.

 

I am headless without a turban.

I used to wear a 6 meter turban.

Later walking with the Malangs from Delhi to Ajmer I bought 14 meter turbans worn in Jodhpur from Dudu Rajasthan.

I prefer Turbans during Moharam I wear black otherwise colorful ones.

The illiterates of today aren't those who cannot read or write, rather those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn. And hence to help us become literates, the aim of our education institutes should be to teach us how to think, rather than what to think, and enable us to think for ourselves, rather than cramming our memories with the thoughts of others.

 

But then of course, with all said and done, nothing is complete without willingness and desire.

 

As that old proverb goes...

"Ye can lead a man up to the university, but you can't make him think!"

- visualizing unlearning...

 

"...The natural attempt of theorists is to continue to revise and evolve theories as conditions change. At some point, however, the underlying conditions have altered so significantly, that further modification is no longer sensible. An entirely new approach is needed..."

Bo received notice yesterday of his acceptance by the University of Arizona Dance Department.

 

The U of A Dance Department requires evidence of outstanding talent and proficiency in Ballet, Modern Dance, and jazz.

 

Congratulations to Arizona Ballet Theatre's Dancer Bo.

 

And, congratulations to his devoted teachers Miss Cecily(ballet), Miss Megan(Jazz), and Mister Norman Walker(Modern Dance).

 

Fortunately for Bo, two years ago someone suggested he take class at Arizona Ballet Theatre.

In just two short years, Bo was able to unlearn all his bad habits from his former schools, and was able to benefit fully from the training by the finest of teachers ...

For every new thing I learn, I have to unlearn two things.

160/365. I definitely made this harder than it had to be: noon sun, fire and a flash. It taught me things like I never want to shoot this combo again and reminded of the bad habits that I have to unlearn.

Unlearn - Benny blanco & Gracie Abrams - youtu.be/4DRFxU8uAe8

I have an image of myself as a tree made of metal. All the branches, twigs, and buds had become, gradually, hardened. I had become an image of myself, silvery and arrested. A collection of past routes.

 

Where was the new life? What had 'I' become?

 

And now? God has been taking those branches off me one by painful one. He has cast them into the furnace, the crucible. I can keep nothing, although I desperately want to hold on to something and call it my own.

 

No, they all have to go. I plead, I weep, I try to run away, I exhaust myself with the yearning, but I know. I know there is no other way. Love would have this of me. I have asked and It is responding.

 

I need everything melted until all the impurities and rigidity are no more. All my thinking must be reversed, unlearned. Until all that is left is pure fluid love.

 

He would have me surrender gladly my little special something for His glorious Everything. And yet I hold so tightly to my little specialness.

 

I have so much love surrounding me. I can take no wrong step. I ask for graciousness and an open hand.

Shooting #Shiasm in Mumbai

I stopped shooting Moharam in Mumbai since 2012.. Started shooting Moharam in other metro cities like Lucknow Kolkatta Hyderabad Chennai Delhi HussainTekriJaorah Mehmoodabad.

 

However after my recent heart attack low immunity and diabetes I was advised by my cardiologist and endocrinologist to avoid crowds.

I have not documented Moharam last two years.

A very dear friend wanted to sponsor my walk from Najaf to Karbala last 2 years but I politely refused.

He helped me financially during my surgery.

I am indebted to him.

My Faith is scripted in blood even my daggers that I used for my Kamazani were blessed at the Brahma temple Pushkar.

Me and My World

 

This was the first and last time I did sword Matam on the streets of Dongri in a Chehlum procession going to the Shia cemetery Rehmatabad.

The sword belonged to an Irani guy and we use the same without cleaning it perhaps a little rose water.

I have shot a lot of sword matamdars and this is a form of self inflicted mourning among the Shias youth of Mumbai.

You won't find this in any other city..

Though a few guys use the sword on their heads in Hyderabad Irani gully during Bibi ka Alam procession..

I have shot Ashura in Hyderabad with two of my friends @boazimages and @fotravelphoto .

#unlearningphotography

she has shut me

from the planetarium of her thoughts

my soul as it sickens rots

american woman vicariously

my downfall plots

a journalistic journey of pain

through her web slots

a cybernetic landscape

with her wrath dots

even the moon

in all its beauty

is marred by small pox spots

she a blog goddess

weary words as sling shots

living among tiny tots

a freak power trips

tailored tyranny

an epic that has become

the story of i pot

buzznet memories

diuretic discharge

on the back of a radio

hump of a dromedary

hop skips and trots

an indian digitalised poet

analogue photographer

unlearning photography

pictorial crackpots

featured pictures

galvanised sorrow

condemned as snapshots

writing this a bleeding middle finger

as the ink blots

she with her silence

my word press apparition

hamlets fathers ghost

her conscience bycotts.

 

firoze shakir in pain buzznet memories....

  

Bob Dylan Masters of War

Masters Of War

 

Come you masters of war

You that build all the guns

You that build the death planes

You that build the big bombs

You that hide behind walls

You that hide behind desks

I just want you to know

I can see through your masks

 

You that never done nothin'

But build to destroy

You play with my world

Like it's your little toy

You put a gun in my hand

And you hide from my eyes

And you turn and run farther

When the fast bullets fly

 

Like Judas of old

You lie and deceive

A world war can be won

You want me to believe

But I see through your eyes

And I see through your brain

Like I see through the water

That runs down my drain

 

You fasten the triggers

For the others to fire

Then you set back and watch

When the death count gets higher

You hide in your mansion

As young people's blood

Flows out of their bodies

And is buried in the mud

 

You've thrown the worst fear

That can ever be hurled

Fear to bring children

Into the world

For threatening my baby

Unborn and unnamed

You ain't worth the blood

That runs in your veins

 

How much do I know

To talk out of turn

You might say that I'm young

You might say I'm unlearned

But there's one thing I know

Though I'm younger than you

Even Jesus would never

Forgive what you do

 

Let me ask you one question

Is your money that good

Will it buy you forgiveness

Do you think that it could

I think you will find

When your death takes its toll

All the money you made

Will never buy back your soul

 

And I hope that you die

And your death'll come soon

I will follow your casket

In the pale afternoon

And I'll watch while you're lowered

Down to your deathbed

And I'll stand o'er your grave

'Til I'm sure that you're dead

Two cocks

One human

The other in the shape of a clock

For the price of none

One standing erect

Tumescent

On the carter road promenade

Under the setting sun

He other tired flaccid

After a jog and a run

The day for one, already over

The other the day has just begun

So much, so much unfinished tasks

Undone

Battles yet to be fought

Yet to be won

Vaginal vagaries

Home spun

Yes the chicks have come home to roost

Calories dying to orgiastically burn

Tears crying in an urn

As they are wantonly spurned

A thought unturned

Oh what a waste my pictures and my poetry

Categorized as a system of learning unlearned

From the kingdom my Blog Goddess ..

I have like a lost letter unread

postage not paid , male returned

Zip is a garment that connects to your phone or music player and allows you to control it simply by performing natural gestures that are built into the mechanics of the garments we wear. In this case, zip up to increase the volume, zip down to decrease it, and tug on the pullstraps to retract the integrated earbuds. Enjoy your music experience without all the devices and wires hanging all over you.

I must say that I'm impressed with Affinity Photo for retouching. It is clear the developers have really thought about what it is needed for efficient retouching post-processing workflow. The tools are "just right". While it took me a while to learn this new tool (or should I say unlearn 25+ years of Photoshop) I will likely use it as my go-to retouching tool going forward. The next version will add batch processing and macros and that might just seal the deal for me.
