transgender people have courage like i have never seen in any one group of people before..they face adversaty without fear and show alot of moxie in their quest to follow their dreams of being true to whom they really are in their heart..that is something that should be admired, not destroyed.
every year many transgender people are murdered , many families are left waiting for justice..
the few following examples are quite shocking.. (these are just five out of hundreds)
.
.
Erika Keels (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; 3/22/07) Erika, a 20-year-old black transgender woman, was murdered on March 22, 2007, on North Broad Street in Philadelphia. Witnesses saw an assailant eject Erika from his car and intentionally run her over four times, killing her and leaving the scene. A medical examiner’s report supports these eyewitness accounts. But police ruled Erika’s death an accident and have refused to conduct an investigation. The driver, Roland Button, was later apprehended, but he has yet to face criminal charges–including “hit and run” charges. When Ms. Keels’ friends, who are themselves trans, questioned police officials about the classification of her death as an accident, they were asked to disclose their “birth” names and told they were “trying to make something out of nothing.”

Duanna Johnson, a 40-year-old African American transgender woman. In February 2008, Duanna was picked up and arrested by Memphis, Tennessee, police officers Bridges McRae and J. Swain. She was pinned down and beaten by the two men in a Memphis police jail after she refused to respond to anti-gay and anti-transgender slurs. The assault was captured on video, which aired on several regional newscasts. In an interview given to FOX 13, Duanna spoke about her experiences. “As [Officer McRae] was calling me, he said ‘hey he-she, come over here’” Johnson told FOX 13 reporters, “I knew he couldn’t be talking to me because that’s not my name.” Duanna Johnson received national media attention this past June when she went public about the brutality she suffered at the hands of two Memphis Police Officers. She became “the public face of our community’s campaign against racism, homophobia, and transphobia” according to a statement from the Mid-South Peace and Justice Center. On Monday Nov 10, according to news reports, Duanna was shot “execution style” between Hollywood and Staten Avenue in Memphis, Tenn.[21]

Angie Zapata was a trans woman who was murdered on July 17, 2008, in Greeley, Colorado. Her death was the first ever case involving a transgender victim to be ruled a hate crime.[23] Colorado is one of only eleven states that protect transgender victims under hate crime laws in the United States. Allen Andrade, who learned eighteen-year-old Angie was transgender after meeting her and spending several days with her, beat her to death with a fire extinguisher. In his arrest affidavit, Andrade calls Zapata "it",[24] and during his trial a tape was played of a phone conversation in which he told his girl friend "gay things need to die".[25] Andrade's attorneys used a gay panic defense, implying that Andrade suddenly "snapped" when he learned Zapata was not born biologically female. On April 22, 2009, Andrade was found guilty of first degree murder, hate crimes, and car/ID theft. He was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.[26]

Tyra Hunter (1970 – August 7, 1995) was an African-American transsexual woman who died after being injured as a passenger in a car accident and refused medical care.[1][2] Emergency medical technicians at the scene of the accident uttered derogatory epithets and withdrew medical care after discovering that she had male genitalia, and ER staff at DC General Hospital subsequently provided dilatory and inadequate care.

.
Gwen Araujo of Newark, California (died October 2002), an American teenage trans woman, was killed by four men, two of whom she had been raped by, who beat and strangled her after discovering she was transsexual.[7][8][9] Two of the defendants were convicted of second-degree murder,[10] but not convicted on the requested hate crime enhancements. The other two defendants pleaded guilty or no contest to voluntary manslaughter. In at least one of the trials, a trans panic defense - an extension of the gay panic defense - was employed.[10][11]

Many thanks to those who have already supported this project in the first 24 hours. There is still a long way to go, but with your help we will succeed!
John Berger said in his famous BBC series from 1972 "Ways of seeing" that the most important thing about paintings themselves is that their images are silent, still. The project PLACES WITHOUT NOISE came precisely from this. That the most important about those photographs was that they communicated something totally different from what they represented. These photos were no longer a window that showed me a memory or a moment already lived, otherwise they are an open door to a new and unknown place.
Thanks for supporting and sharing!!

confession: I'm a guitar hero(in) addict, but I'm not very good at. I only can play at medium/hard level, but I absolutely suck at expert level :(
but I think the game would be cooler with the smarties.
confessione: sono guitar hero(in)omane, ma non sono mica brava. so giocarci solo al livello medio/difficile, ma a expert faccio assolutamente schifo :(
però con gli smartis sarebbe anche più fRigo il gioco.

Pantokratoros monastery (abbey). Fresco painted on the ceiling of the external propylon’s dome: The Father Without Beginning (Ὁ Ἄναρχος Πατὴρ in Greek). The propylon is located in front of the monastery’s Southwestern Gate (outside). The gate is part of St. Panteleēmōn’s Tower.
Pantocrator means Almighty, Omnipotent, All-Powerful or Ruler of All Universes. The theological meaning or concept of this word goes infinitely further and deeper than a specific depiction in Christian iconography (the Christ Pantocrator icon). The monastery was erected earlier than in 1357 AD.

So I freely give the whole,

This is one of a series of images in 3D (!) promoting the benefits of a brand of fertilizer. Much agricultural land in France was decimated after the first world war, so something of a growth business.
Up on a hill beyond Glass Beach is a cemetery that dates back to the 19th century, a burial ground for workers at the McBryde Sugar Company's plantation. The small cemetery overlooking the ocean is filled with gravestones in Japanese and English that was only recently rediscovered.

and without you.
sorry I haven't been around!! it's a very stressful time as i am hunting for a summer internship through my campus's recruiting. i am constantly anxious and uneasy and restless. and not having a camera doesn't help!
... without a dog. Not necessarily better, but you get more time to focus; nor is it necessarily better.

So it was late afternoon on the first leg of the wildlife drive. We had just finished photographing the Pintail's (previous image). We were waiting and hoping the 2000 or so Snow Geese on the right side of the road and looking directly into the sun would begin to fly to the other side of the road where the light would be behind us. I figured we had about 45 minutes of "good" light left. After about 15 minutes, a few Snow Geese began to lift off. Then, in a matter of minutes, all were airborne and it was a flying frenzy. It was actually difficult to isolate small groups or individuals. We had a blast and got what we came for. On the D750 (FX) I like to use Group-area for flight shots. It basically makes one of the focus points larger and therefore easier to hold onto the target. My D7200's (DX) do not have Group so I use 9 point, which also works well but tends to focus on the closest point.

I've been asked by a few of my contacts if I would post a before and after shot of my Ladies candid.
This is the process I use :-
Duplicate layer
Filter>Noise>Median>10pixels>ok
Layer opacity>50%
Layer mask
Brush>100%>Hard
Brush over eyes and mouth and any other areas you seem fit, ie jewellery.
These setting work on an image that is 1500 pixels on the longest edge.

Looking below the surface now is found
Lying silently without a sound
The leaves that once hung up high
The leaves that gazed across the sky
The leaves that blew softly in the breeze
When they ruled the towering trees
But all things must come to an end
Autumn came, they did descend
Torn from their home, they did fly
Riding the air until they lie
Below the surface, where they are found
Dying slowly without a sound
Without you, there is no time
The bee acquires the stillness of a stone
And nature's frantic flap assumes a stationary stance.
Colour fades and life is held as though in heavy glass
The swift, suspended inches from her nest
Will there remain 'til after you return.
for my Elastigirl
