Normally I don't do very much editing. I prefer just taking a good photo, some times I will do a bit. I like the way this one turned out.
Imagine if, four years after invading Iraq, we controlled only 20% of it and had suffered 1.3 million casualties.
Would anyone call that “winning”?
Of course not.
But when it’s Russia, we’re supposed to believe Putin holds all the cards.
I knew an absolutely wonderful guy once. He collected all of these trolleys because he believed in a streetcar system that is, objectively, better. His collection got destroyed. He's gone. Most of the trolleys are too. That's the way it goes. That's the way it all goes.
The night shots where illuminated interiors stand out against a black sky are haunting.
Almost literally haunted, as if remnants of the past still live in the long unused trolleys, a half-life of memory and history, ghosts of what they once were. Appropriate images for Halloween's month.
The past is a black hole everything that you know is getting sucked into.
All you can do is love the beauty of the present, even as it is vanishing before you.
Here's another place I found at the edge: www.abandonedamerica.us/the-trolley-...

'Dreaming in the empty valley' sculpture by lilinli213 gives life to this weathered figure and tiny soul - it has so many interpretations. What's yours?
This is Beau. He loves his small human. A little concerned about why he's being outlined like a crime scene victim. Deciding to give them the benefit of the doubt. 13/10 (TT: beaunosebones)
A portrait is far more than likeness. Modern Eden Gallery invites you to help celebrate ‘The Portrait Show 14: Masquerade’ group exhibition currently on view!

You know that friend that doesn't think his borthday should be celebrated? Or the one that says 'nothing' when you ask her what she wants for Christmas? Here's exactly how to handle them. Do fuck-all for his birthday, and don't buy her shit for Christmas.
Pure depth. Such beautiful blue pigment washes over those delicate wings.
Lovely painting in progress by Katya Shiova

Tapping the sign to remind folks that I do not use Ai for writing, research, idea generation, editing, or even for fun and goofing around. Ai is great at making the incompetent appear competent, but does little for those with developed skills. Anyone telling you you NEED it is selling, not buying.

An EFF analysis reveals a troubling pattern of mission creep with ALPRs. Without a warrant requirement, law enforcement agencies are shifting from using the technology for specific criminal investigations to using these surveillance networks for minor personal whims. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

AJ Hamilton’s ‘Cross Pollination’ portraits are fierce, fun and feminine! I love the stark contrast between soft pastels and harsh, black leather.

Cities now have one more reason to follow the lead of many other municipalities and cancel their Flock contracts, before this new feature causes civil liberties harms to residents and headaches for cities.
Czech artist Žofka shares her skills in using acrylic paints like like watercolours! Rather magical, no?
