#Winter Sea

 

"The blue expanse of the Mediterranean,

enchanter and deceiver of audacious men,

preserve the secret of its charm ...

Under the wonderful purity of the sky at sunset "

Joseph Conrad

 

Nino Rota - Amarcord

 

a walk to the sea, a few Sundays ago....

I love the sea in winter, sweet and melancholic, like the music of Nino Rota written for Amarcord by Federico Fellini

 

I'm sorry for the little presence in recent days

Bad headaches did not allow me to stay a long time on the computer.

 

Thank you everyone for your visit and wish you a happy weekend : )

Seventy elephants are killed every day for the tusks. Every week 20 rhinos disappear. Poaching not 'truce and international commitments do not seem to bring the desired results. The pace of killings is likely to climb every prediction about the possible extinction of these wonderful creatures. Fangs, horns and skins feeding a lap of illicit business estimated at over 23 billion dollars a year. But you can not surrender to this devastating scenario, because it is understood, in these years, that there are appropriate measures to stop poaching, which has now become a major activity of international criminal groups, such as drug trafficking and trafficking human.

 

But corruption among police, poachers and "anti-poaching" is stronger than laws.

It 's amazing that even today, in 2016, in a world that is moving increasingly towards vegan, respect for animals, all this happens as in past centuries.

World should take action, not enough rules of the African countries....

Challenge #141.0 - Award Tree - It's Your Earth

In the tiny hamlet of Gateway on Highway 141 in Colorado is a cool diner, an up-market resort (built and funded by the founder of the Discovery Channel), a library, school and not much else. Watching over it all is this beautiful butte called The Palisade.

Fluid Time I - Architecture as parallel reality... blog.juliaannagospodarou.com/fluid-time-i/

Chicago - Jay Pritzker Pavilion (Arch. Frank Gehry) & Aon Center (Arch. Edward Durell)

 

T/S LE = Tilt + Shift + Long Exposure

Shot with Canon TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II – maximum tilt & shift, using the Formatt Hitech Filters ProStop IRND JT (aka Joel Tjintjelaar) Signature Edition filter kit, the best ND filters I've used so far, and processed using extensively Topaz Labs BW Effects 2, ReMask & Detail 3 + PS CS6 & LR5 (don't forget you can use the code juliaannagospodarou to get 15% discount for ordering any Topaz product at this link www.topazlabs.com/782.html)

 

A long time since my last architectural image, you might wonder if I'm still doing photography : ) Well, the answer is YES, more than ever, but now that I'm doing it professionally I'm spending time doing a lot more than just working on my images (which I still love more than everything else). Not that I don't like the whole process, it's so very exciting and it suits me like a glove, but you have to know, doing photography as a business is much more than shooting and processing your photos, SO much more!! And you have just one choice, if you want to do your job at a top level, you have to spend time doing all the things around it. That's what I did with the Chicago Workshop, that's what I did with the Athens Workshop that took place this past weekend and was a great success blog.juliaannagospodarou.com/athens-workshop-2013/ ) and that's what I do with all my other activities, be they teaching, mentoring or else.

 

This is the first image I'm posting from the Chicago workshop, a workshop I did with a great team of photographers and that is still the architectural event of the year. Chicago is a amazing place and has won a big place in my heart. As Frank Lloyd Wright says: "Eventually, I think Chicago will be the most beautiful great city left in the world...” He is right and I'm already looking forward to the moment I'll be back there!

 

And now, as always from me, a few words about my vision behind this image.

 

Time, space ...they are just conventions. Living inside them can be just as easy as living outside them and the reality of living outside them can be just as real as the one of relating to them. If you need a proof just try to dream. Who says that dreaming is not a reality? Just as imagination can be reality as well. Who says that the world needs to have a material shape to be real?

Who says that we have to always relate to the same constants that are time and space and not create different times and different spaces that will cover different realities?...

Different from what you were used from me lately, more in line with my older architectural work, it's been a long time since I've showed an entire building in a frame, let alone 5 buildings, but I was thinking for a long time to make a series as the one I'm starting today. If you know me you know I love long exposure, I love motion blur and any kind of blur that can give me the freedom to bypass reality and go where noone else has been. I love the freedom these ways of seeing the world give to my imagination and now I also have a lens that will help me with putting in practice what my mind has already seen a long time ago: The Queen of the Lenses, Her Majesty The T/S Lens. : ) This image is the beginning of a direction I wanted to explore for a long time, architecture as a parallel reality. What I'm always looking for in my architectural images is to find the dream in architecture, in essence to find the soul of the building I'm photographing. I think now I'm closer than even to this soul and I'll show it to you too over the months to come.

The Twelve Apostles is a collection of limestone stacks off the shore of the Port Campbell National Park, by the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia. Their proximity to one another has made the site a popular tourist attraction. Currently there are eight apostles left, the ninth one of the stacks collapsed dramatically in July 2005. The name remains significant and spectacular especially in the Australian tourism industry.

Zager and Evans, "In The Year 2525"

 

In the year 2525, if man is still alive

If woman can survive, they may find

In the year 3535

Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lie

Everything you think, do and say

Is in the pill you took today

In the year 4545

You ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes

You won't find a thing to chew

Nobody's gonna look at you

In the year 5555

Your arms hangin' limp at your sides

Your legs got nothin' to do

Some machine's doin' that for you

In the year 6565

You won't need no husband, won't need no wife

You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too

From the bottom of a long glass tube

 

In the year 7510

If God's a coming, He oughta make it by then

Maybe He'll look around Himself and say

Guess it's time for the judgment day

In the year 8510

God is gonna shake His mighty head

He'll either say I'm pleased where man has been

Or tear it down, and start again

 

In the year 9595

I'm kinda wonderin' if man is gonna be alive

He's taken everything this old earth can give

And he ain't put back nothing

 

Now it's been ten thousand years

Man has cried a billion tears

For what, he never knew, now man's reign is through

But through eternal night, the twinkling of starlight

So very far away, maybe it's only yesterday

Gilbert Spencer painted portraits, genre scenes and murals but was chiefly a landscape artist. Born at Cookham, Berkshire thirteen months after his brother, the painter Stanley Spencer, Spencer studied at Camberwell School of Arts and Crafts, the Royal College of Art and the Slade School of Fine Art. He had his first one-man show at the Goupil Gallery in 1923. From 1940-1943 he was appointed an official war artist. Spencer taught at the Royal College of Art and was Head of Painting both at Glasgow School of Art and Camberwell. He was elected an Associate Royal Academician (A.R.A) in 1950 and a full member in the early 1960s. The artist was widely exhibited during his lifetime and examples of his work are held in major public and private collections, including the Tate Gallery and the Royal Academy. He published the biography Stanley Spencer in 1961 and his autobiography Memoirs of a Painter (1974).

 

My name is Adam, I'm 36, and I live in Colorado. I have signed up to participate in the 2006 Florida Ironman.

 

I started training for the event on Jan 1st, 2006 weighing 362.2 lbs (at 6'3"). My goal is to A) lose 140.6 lbs (which equals the total miles covered in an Ironman) before the start of the 2006 Florida Ironman and B) become an official Ironman finisher on Nov 4th 2006. I was certainly big enough to get Gastric bypass surgery but wanted to prove it could be done with a lifestyle change and sweat.

 

This will be the second time I will have lost significant weight in a year(ish) time frame. 10 years ago I lost 132 lbs because of a $100 bet with a buddy. I remember before I lost weight the first time if was even possible. I felt helpless at times. After the success of the first big weight loss I knew it was about setting up a good plan and sticking to it. I have been big most of my life and started doing triathlons to lose weight. I didn't eat well so I really didn’t lose any weight (here is a site I did for the 2004 Escape from Alcatraz www.betacode.com I weighed about 340. I was last but I finished the darn thing!) In November 2005 I was watching the Ironman and decided heck I'll sign up for the Florida event in Nov 2006. I put off starting to train so I could make it my new years resolution (or so I could eat well over the holidays - you be the judge.) Here is my weight loss plan:

 

1. Calories in - less than calories expended.

 

I am eating 3 meals (+ 1 snack usually fruit) and staying under 1,406 calories (Low fat and choosing whole grain if possible.) I average about 1,000 to 1,200 calories per day. First week was kind of tough but I would make sure I drank large glasses of ice water at meal time to help fill me up. Now it's pretty easy. I can even go out to eat now and make good decisions and leave food on my plate.

 

2. Peak Interval training.

 

Last time I lost a bunch of weight I noticed I would lose more in weeks where my training heart rate would peak and valley through out my work out (I thought I was building to get faster.) That is I would do 2-5 minutes of cardio at 108-120 BPM and follow that with 2-5 min at 150-162 BPM. So now I just put the Cardio time in (at this point 90 minutes a day) and I have had some great results.

 

Now that I am within 3 months of my race dates I have switched my training to long sustained work outs. On short days I still do Peak Interval training but for the most part I am running or riding for a couple hours at a set heart rate.

 

________________

I'm not fast, I'm indestructible!

 

GOAL MET on Sept 29, 2006 down 140.6 LBS!!!!!!

  

Weight loss this week: -3.8 lbs

 

STARTING WEIGHT = 362.2 LBS - (Jan 1st 2006)

CURRENT WEIGHT = 221.2 LBS

GOAL WEIGHT = 221.6 LBS - (achieved by Nov 4th, 2006)

LBS Lost so far: 141.0 lbs

LBS to Go = 0 LBS

Days to GO = 35 days

 

I am in week 39 of 44.
