A wide-angle street photograph showing a man lying on his back on a steep, slanted concrete wall under the shade of an overpass. He is positioned in the middle ground, his dark-clad figure silhouetted against the bright, sunlit street beyond. To the left, a sidewalk leads toward a busy intersection with parked cars, utility poles, and green trees. The top of the frame is dominated by the dark, textured underside of a bridge, which creates a natural frame for the scene. The lighting creates a high-contrast effect, with the foreground in deep shadow and the background bathed in bright afternoon light.

An old scan of a chemical film photo. Our subject is mostly surrounded by dark; the composition is done in a chiaroscuro manner. Her arms are mostly invisible because of the surrounding darkness, but she's stretching them upwards. -She desired to appear as emerging from the dark, into bright light. Her eyes are closed. Her lips seem to be faintly of a smile in formation. We used a diffusion lens filter as well, in order to soften the harsh, angular light coming directly across her from the left of the composition. The perspective is straight on. (This image is cropped because -well, to many people even the presence of a body of a woman denotes something of sexuality. This even can be wholly misperceived when it's obviously an artistic & creative representation of a person entirely involved with her presence in the piece. Oh well. Many of us retain a juvenile attitude towards art, a body, a person, an idea, and the fact that gender stirs their lurid nature of an underdeveloped soul...)

Here we have a fine, dark lace shawl draped over the body of a person's back. The buttocks has been cropped out of this version of the composition, on behalf of those who have a disposition of sexualizing any body, even if it's covered by a mostly dark, but still transparent & lovely fabric. The outstretched arms & waist of the body is mostly in silhouette. The light source is from the front & draperies are obvious, beyond the body & the lace shawl. Enjoy.

An ornate mask is on the face of our subject individual, appearing upside-down on a forest floor. Her elbows are propping her up, with her head & face turned to the side. A smoothness is apparent to her chin, jawline, shoulders, upper chest and arms. -Part of a dark necklace is visible hanging from around her neck. The image is cropped because this necklace falls upon, over & down a female chest. Female chests invoke sexuality for some viewers when in art it really most often simply denotes the feminine gender. Oh well. It's a distinctly different composition & perspective but that wouldn't be noticed by some if it hadn't been cropped away.

A cropped (to avoid the inclusion of a feminine breast) straight on portrait of a person laying on her side is top lit, in a chiaroscuro setting. Half of her rested head is in near entire darkness. Her face is without emotion or of much expression -other than that of calm. A hand of her's is resting in front of her, unfolded & relaxed. This is an old scan of a chemical film print.

An elderly woman in a red, black and white print sari with green blouse tends to a fire outside the Auro Usha Restaurant in Tiruvannamalai, Tamil Nadu, India whilst a similar-aged man in a white shirt and a red cloth (dhoti) stands watching nearby.

Having won the 1970 Eurovision song contest for Ireland with 'All Kinds Of Everything', Dana Rosemary Scallon later released 'Something's Cooking In The Kitchen' which one critic reviewed as "this truly awful culinary misadventure of half-baked puns, in which her lip-synching is so bad she makes Britney Spears look good." 

She later served one term as a Member of the European Parliament (MEP) for Connachtโ€“Ulster from 1999 to 2004. Her platform centred on pro-life views, family values and opposition to the European Constitution. Her parliamentary work often focused on opposing liberal changes to Irish law, such as the 2001 proposals to amend the constitution regarding the morning-after pill. 

Dana stood in Ireland's 2002 general election seeking a Dรกil seat for Galway West as an Independent but failed to be elected. She also twice stood unsuccessfully as a candidate in Irish presidential elections, in 2004 and 2011.

There's one lesson
you oughta know
I've learned -
when you order
what you want
in other restaurants,
you're sure to get
your fingers burned.

Dana, 20th century

An older Black man with a salt-and-pepper beard sits on a polished wooden bench in what appears to be a public terminal or station. He is dressed in all blackโ€”a t-shirt, trousers, and heavy bootsโ€”and sits with his legs crossed, one hand resting thoughtfully under his chin. His expression is weary yet composed as he looks directly toward the camera. Beside him sits a large black tactical-style backpack and other bags, while the background features the warm tones of stone walls and brass railings.

Thursday, I went to the station. He was there at his spot. I wanted the same angle, accidentally caught his eye. Rats, busted. I was hoping for a series. He has such a great look. Again, I always want to know the story.
