That wrong moment when you push the shutter release. The park patron was posing next to "The Seated Lincoln" in Grant Park while her friend took her picture.

 

So I decided to get a candid photo.

 

But as I was setting up my shot, I didn't notice that she got up, turned around, and reached for her water bottle

For one reason or other 50 026 finds it's self running wrong line at North Weald during an EMRPS photo shoot.

Ha. "One of these things just doesn't belong here..."

 

Drove nearly an hour to shop at a Walmart I hadn't been to in years! And while checking out their doll selection, I was hoping to find either Clawdeen Wolf, or It's My Nature Katie (she's the only Nature LIV doll I plan to buy...and that's only if I like her 'in person'; I've yet to see her in-person!) an was tickled to see NOT an It's My Nature Katie, but a darn First Wave!

 

The other dolls asking: "How'd you get in here...?"

 

Sophie screams: Go back to the Clearance aisle!" ;)

Someone's knowledge of the countryside has rather let them down here, it seems. Even I know that a horse has more legs than that.

Went down a wrong street one afternoon and found an old Jewish cemetery on Buffalo's East Side. The most recent stones were dated from the late 1950s. The oldest stones are from the early 1800s, the earliest days of of the City of Buffalo when the "East Side" was sparsely populated farmlands. It is now a decayed urban area suffering from blight and disinvestment like so many "Rust Belt" cities. When the first people were buried here, one might have been able to look all the way to Lake Erie to the west and would have seen farms and animals as far as the eye could see. The streets were likely dirt or perhaps a few nicer streets paved with bricks.

 

Must have been very quiet compared to the industrial age that came, and the cars and the airport a few miles to the northeast. One of the oldest headstones showed a rabbi buried here in the mid 1800s. He was born in the early 1800s just a few years after the British burned the Village of the Buffalo down in retaliation for the American burning of of Niagara on the Lake and Fort George. Native Americans lived on reservation lands just a few miles south of here, south of the Buffalo River. There were remnants of Native-American mounds and probably burial mounds in farm fields, some that date back to thousands of years ago, just after the glaciers retreated. Years later the area would become a dense urban area with shops standing shoulder to shoulder on Genesee Street and ranks of houses running off the side streets, and trolleys trundling down the streets. In my life time this area has suffered and and its infrastructure is rough, so many houses and buildings are demolished that some people have described like "teeth in a Jack-O-Lantern". Things in Buffalo have been looking up lately, but this area has a large hole to climb out of. its new communities are African-American and many newcomers from Bengladesh, Pakistan, Africa and the MIddle East. It's formerly Germanic character has given way to new sounds and smells, routines etc....

 

The cemetery is bound on three sides by a railroad track, a magnificent old industrial building and a (not so magnificent) modern prefab building used for some local construction business. I have looked for signs of a temple - I am assuming there was one nearby somewhere, possibly on Doat Street or one of the many maze-like side streets. I was told there was one there...long ago but it was gone long long ago. Just a few years ago a Greek or Russian Orthodox church, that was formerly a Jewish Temple was demolished on Jefferson Ave. It had a big onion dome on the top and was one of the every few surviving temples in Buffalo. I suppose the point is that these facets of history are rare and important and should be preserved.

 

Someone I met, told me that his son, for a Boy Scout project cleaned and weeded the cemetery, reset the stones, trimmed the trees etc.... I believe he said they also documented all the headstones and photographed them. I do not know who maintains it now, but there is evidence of looting (missing bronze medallions from stones) and headstones flopped over.

 

It is bound on the south side by a large Christian cememtery (Concordia cemetery). It is separated by a rusty chain-link fence - And I find it strange and downright silly that even in death we have to have a fence that keeps "us" in here and "them" over there.

 

I find these places to be places of introspection and thought. To me these are remnants of communities that once lived here, and it shows the flux of people that come and go and reiterates that what a place is today is not what it always was and will not always be. The economic fortunes of the East Side, battered by loss of industrialization and racism is not doomed to be that way forever.

  

You're doing it wrong mommy.

"Um sir, that's the wrong map."

As some of you may have noticed Eomer is using Jack Sparrow's map in his latest adventure :)

 

Big world for a little man

S.Berillo è un antico e fatiscente quartiere nel centro della città, ed è lo storico quartiere della prostituzione. Oggi è popolato da "professioniste" extracomunitarie e dei paesi dell'Est europeo, ma vi si trovano ancora abitanti anziane che sono una fonte di informazioni storiche sui trascorsi fasti del quartiere.

Negativo con velo a causa di un errore di preparazione del Caffenol (25g. di soda anziché 15).

Ma forse - dato anche il soggetto - non tutto il male vien per nuocere.

Because a mistake in calculations the amount of soda in mixing Caffenol was 25 g instead of 15 g, This resulted in heavy fogging. The right recipe should have been 25g instant coffee + 15 g anhydrous soda + 7.5 g vitamin C for 600 ml of solution

You really wanted the riding school rather than Acacias

Tuve que ponerla de cabeza porque yo estaba parado del lado equivocado de la declaración.

I had to turn it upside down 'cause I was in the wrong side.

It seems wrong to have Black & White photo of this particular locomotive, but I'm doing it anyway.

Get that NY jacket outta here..

I uploaded the wrong photo before x___x

 

Meet Myrtle, a sweet middle-aged lady who collects seashells by the beach. On the weekends, she robs convenience stores and bakeries of all their sweet, sweet things.

 

Beside her is Todd, her butler with questionable fashion sense.

 

Just kidding.

It's just Avram, Darcy, and Darcy's new wig :D! It won't be his permanent new style, since I still prefer longer hair. The food is Iwako erasers, but the boxes come from a very cute local stationary store :).

Baltimore wandering

Takumar 200mm F4

I wasn't shooting yet. As I was walking, I saw him turned his head and look up the lamp pole. Thinking that might make a nice photo, I took out my lens cap, turned the speed instintively and the focus ring to infinite (hoping to get everything in focus), aimed at him and fire the shot. Well, the sharp background and the blurred fellow says the rest ;) Good thing is he turned right back as if he knows that his job was done after I squeezed the trigger.

Thought I like the photo, the focus is not right. But I am too tired to look a better picture.

*-*

Apesar de eu gostar desta fotografia, o foco não está no local ideal. Mas estou demasiado cansada para procurar uma imagem melhor.

in the real world alice could had died for something like this ¬¬ ... you DON'T drink of strange bottles!,...Does your mom ever told you that?........ LOL

Made a wrong turn tonight when trying to find a shortcut back to the hotel. Ended up in what I think is a cranberry bog. Nice detour even if it took a while...

A chalk drawing by Tori of a princess kissing a frog in the mistaken notion that it's a prince--with the actual prince running up to point out her mistake.

Nope, wasn't attending, I don't think they'd want me there. I was driving by and snapped this pic of the preparations for the event. They claim an estimated 1000 people attended this rally...being familiar with how these events estimate attendance, it could have been anything from 100-500. Half of those being reporters and liberal Democrats from the State house.

We should have more of these signs scattered over the earth. Could it help?

Both a happy and bad ending.

Oh, the pain that George Michael had to go through in order to crack the high notes of "Careless Whisper".

Perhaps technology it's not for you.
