was thinking that it was a long time since I was here

bluebeachsong An amazing personal project and an incredible documentation of a life. It's also fascinating to see three decades of style, fashion, and pop culture. The photographer's name is Jamie Livingston, who was also a cinematographer. Hugh Crawford was a friend of his who took the photos and posted them on his website.
LyndaLehmann It IS an amazing documentation and an affirmation of life! Thanks for sharing it with us. :0

askcherlock I would like to think of that in positive terms (such as limiting poppy trade), but the DR Congo has them too and look what is happening there. Murder, corruption, out-of-control militia....

markgeller Outstanding photography. Stream of consciousness - had 20/20 on in the background. They were doing a piece on a man with Asperger's syndrome who was sble to become fluent in Icelandic in one week - the most dense hardest to learn language on the planet.

From the film about the destruction of the world's fish:
The mouth of the trawl net on a sea-going trawler is wide enough for thirteen jumbo jets to sit wing tip to wing tip.
As the trawl net is dragged along the sea bed, it pulverizes everything in its path.
It's a wonderful world! -

Theresa111 When I was 13 we lived two miles from Andrews AFB and the jets would shoot overhead and the apartment building would tremble a bit.
photographworks I can't help but think of all those little puffs of pollution filling the flight paths, but with a bit of concentration I can visualize thousands of people with Hawaiian t-shirts and beach towels on their way to their vacations.
