As a kid I loved pouring through books with black and white photos from the 50's and 60's. I could feel what is was like to have lived back then and in someone else's shoes.
This book is certainly Old and Aged which is the theme for the group "We're Here"

I stopped to take some pictures but, the only one I really liked at this location was the one I took of my truck. Go figure.
When I saw the hello prompt in the 122 pictures in 2022 group I immediately thought it would have to be a selfie. I don't do selfies, so was very relieved to see that there were other ways of saying hi.

Su Nuraxi di Barumini,Sardinia
The site is characterized by a cultural stratification dating back more than 2,000 years. Its creation shows different building phases which can be identified through the structures and materials used. The complex was raised using basalt, a very hard volcanic stone found in the nearby Giara upland.
The major tower, also known as mastio, was built during the Middle Bronze Age (1500-1350 B.C.). It is a truncated central tower surrounded by a bulwark made of four towers built on two floors and linked by stone curtain walls with balconies.
In the Recent Bronze Age (1300-1100 B.C.), due to structural failures, the fortification was reinforced and mighty walls, which closed the embrasures and the main entrance, were constructed. Consequently, a new entrance was created and a second outer wall of seven linked towers was built to reinforce the defensive system.
The village of two hundred huts made an appearance in the Final Bronze Age (1150-700 B.C.). Most of the dwellings made of only one room and covered with wooden conical roofs are still visible today around the nuraghe.
During the Iron Age (10th-8th century B.C.), when the Nuragic civilization was approaching its end, the village grew and canalization and drainage systems were introduced.
Later on, Su Nuraxi was nearly destroyed and a new village was built on its ruins around the 7th century B.C.
During the 5th century the Carthaginians occupied the area but did not alter the organization and lifestyle of its inhabitants who continued to live in the village until the 3rd century A.D.

Il complesso presenta una stratificazione culturale di oltre 2000 anni e la sua realizzazione è legata a diverse fasi costruttive riconoscibili dai materiali e dalle tecniche impiegate. Il principale materiale utilizzato per la costruzione è il basalto, pietra vulcanica molto dura proveniente dal vicino altopiano della Giara.
Durante il periodo di Bronzo Medio (1500-1350 a.C.) venne innalzata la torre maggiore, chiamata anche mastio, una torre centrale troncoconica circondata da un bastione costituito da quattro torri a due piani coronate da mensole che sostenevano ballatoi.
Nel Bronzo Recente (1300 – 1100 a.C.), per problemi statici causati dal cedimento del supporto marnoso, si rinforzò il bastione con una possente camicia muraria che chiudeva feritoie e l’ingresso. Venne quindi aperto un nuovo ingresso e innalzato un antemurale più ampio di sette torri per ragioni difensive.
L’agglomerato di duecento capanne si sviluppò a partire dal Bronzo Finale (1150 – 700 a.C.) e la maggior parte delle abitazioni, costituite da un’unica stanza con copertura lignea a forma conica, è visibile ancora oggi attorno al nuraghe.
Al termine della civiltà nuragica, con l’Età del Ferro (X-VIII sec. a.C.), il tessuto insediativo crebbe e furono introdotti sistemi di canalizzazione delle acque e di fognatura; in seguito Su Nuraxi venne quasi totalmente distrutto e sui suoi resti fu costruito intorno al VII secolo a.C. un nuovo centro abitato. Nel V secolo a.C i Cartaginesi occuparono il sito, non alterando l’assetto né lo stile di vita dei suoi abitanti, che vissero nel villaggio fino al III secolo d.C.

Day 236 of 365 - No More Pictures
My nephew, Josh, was visiting this evening while his mom was in class. I took the opportunity to shoot him for my photo of the day. Though after taking this I was informed 'I don't Like to have my picture taken uncle Jeff.' I asked him why and he said 'I just don't' so this is the one I am posting. I think his expression matches his words pretty closely.
This is the second year that I have completed the 100 pictures scavenger hunt. I remember that last year I was scrambling in the last couple of days to finish ... this year I couldn't wait to finish ... thank you to all those who supported this endeavour along the way ...
for the full list of clues, please visit this great group 100 pictures who have a challenge ready for 2012!

**UPDATE**
so, I just found out today that my school that I'm going to has restricted Flickr. ='( so I will try to upload new pictures when I go into town or something, but I just wanted to let you all know. sorry!! I will miss looking at everyone's pictures terribly! BUT I do have a facebook, and a facebook "like" page, so you can keep up with me here..... hope to catch up on your pictures soon!!
please listen, if you don't mind. that's just what I'm listening to while finishing packing and taking this picture.
I realize that this is unlike my usual stuff, but that's one of the things I love about photography. I can use it to express emotion whenever I want, whatever kind of emotion and atmosphere it is I'm feeling.
I leave tomorrow! for the rest of my life. it's a bittersweet goodbye, but mostly bitter at this point. I'm going to miss all my great friends, and the gorgeous scenery, and my sanctuary, my bedroom.

Painting pictures with my mind
Making memories using my eyes
Filling up my heart with golden stories
Who adds some spice to the rhythm of life
Ooh
Welcome sunrise with the morning glory
I've changed my mind
There is no simple life for me
I want to see
I want to feel my heartbeat so
With the world that you feeling
Went out last Saturday morning with a few mates to shoot this lone tree on a hill, just outside of Picton.
I've been wanting to try something new for quite a while, and this scene has given me the opportunity to have a go.
This may not be everyones cup of tea, and I get that.
CC is welcome here, good or bad, so feel free to comment. I ask just one thing...If its in the negative, just do it nicely...
Cheers, Mike
