This is a project of 6 pictures for a competition (which I didn’t win) where the subject was, basically, the way big cities have shaped our way of living, when the most likely would be the other way around. Please consider the titles when looking through them. Also, they work better when seen as a body of work. Hope you enjoy!

Would make a great baby present.

This tree bark has distinctive imagery that reminds me of the intense and prophetic song. “Little Girl Blue.” performed in the 60’s by the inspirational and immensely talented Janis Joplin. The lyrics of this powerful song reflect the despair and sadness of the “blue:” / little girl on the far right of this somber photograph that poignantly reflects the life of the artist who like rock / musicians including the brilliant Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix and Kurt Cobain who also died from an overdose of powerful drugs. There are other faces in this macro bark abstract that are more apparent when viewing this in the large format. / I am always interested in what images you see. I wrote about depression and bipolar disorder in children in / my narrative of “blue boy.” I see a sad little girl / frightened and suffering in a blue cavern. Janis Joplin / was one of my favorite rock musicians, a heroine of the 60’s, who was inspirational, powerful and among others was the voice of a generation. Her poignant lyrics often reflected the profound pain and torment of the artist who like other rock heroes died before their time. Janis like Michael Jackson, two brilliant performers was “gone too soon” ‘Sit there, hmm, count your fingers. / What else, what else is there to do ? / Oh and I know how you feel, / I know you feel that you’re through. / Oh wah wah ah sit there, hmm, count, / Ah, count your little fingers, / My unhappy oh little girl, little girl blue, yeah. Oh sit there, oh count those raindrops / Oh, feel ’em falling down, oh honey all around you. / Honey don’t you know it’s time, / I feel it’s time, / Somebody told you ‘cause you got to know / That all you ever gonna have to count on / Or gonna wanna lean on / It’s gonna feel just like those raindrops do / When they’re falling down, honey, all around you. / Oh, I know you’re unhappy. Oh sit there, ah go on, go on / And count your fingers. / I don’t know what else, what else / Honey have you got to do. / And I know how you feel, / And I know you ain’t got no reason to go on / And I know you feel that you must be through. / Oh honey, go on and sit right back down, / I want you to count, oh count your fingers, / Ah my unhappy, my unlucky / And my little, oh, girl blue. / I know you’re unhappy, / Ooh ah, honey I know, / Baby I know just how you feel.” Janis Joplin / Little Girl Blue

Signal Hill Sunrise Ceremony, St. John’s Newfoundland. / / This was taken on Canada Day. Many Newfoundlanders mark the date of July 1st not as Canada Day, but as Memorial Day, the date of remembrance for the Beaumont-Hamel battle. / / On July 1, 1916, the first day of the Battle of the Somme in World War I, 801 soldiers of the 1st Newfoundland Regiment rose from the British trenches and went into battle at Beaumont-Hamel, nine kilometers north of Albert in France. After only 30 minutes the regiment was devastated. Only 68 men stood to answer the regimental role call the next morning. / / In November of 1916 His Majesty King George V granted the title “Royal” to the Newfoundland Regiment. No other regiment in the British Empire was awarded this signal honours. Today the site of the battle is known as Newfoundland Memorial Park. / / ..................................... / Click here to add me to your watch list. / .....................................

VIEW IT LARGER HERE Jumping fences again tsk..tsk..tsk ;) / At least no-one was going to poke their head out of the window of this house and tell me to get off their lawn :) / I don’t know how old this house is, probably older than me, but people pass it everyday on their way to and from work, paying no mind. It intrigues me, I picture a couple sitting on the porch having a glass of iced tea in the heat of summer. While the children chase butterflies and laugh and play. But there’s also a sense of sadness, now that it has been left to wither for so many years. Sad that it was once full of life and full of many stories from the people that lived here. All we see now, is an overgrown lawn and rotting wood. Nikon D80
