Up Front: One, Redux, in reply to Ian Dalziel,
I guess that is what they call the 'Monet Shot"?
:- )Nice. Truth was it was annoyingly out of focus, so I fiddled with it. I am not finding the Fuji an easy companion -- many functions but we are not yet clicking.

Ourboys' school did similar, (by the Heathcote River too) and it was emotional: sad, fearful (of a big shake right then) and lovely. And now l a burden has passed in some strange way.

Up Front: One, Redux, in reply to Russell Brown,
I was okay today until I visited Philip Matthews' blog and saw the picture of Peter Majendie's memorial work '185 Empty Chairs'
A really cool thing that's been happening a lot in Christchurch is coming on an unexpected artwork someone has created among the mess. 185 Chairs is sad -- I'm used to that -- and awesome and happy-making too for me.
My tiny contribution today: a sunflower on top of the street sewage collection tank left over from chemical dunny days. The flowery road cones are awesome; and we're going to the river to strew flowers by the boy's school, which was the closest school to the Feb 22 epicentre. The River of flowers and the road cones touches my heart more than the big showy memorials, necessary though they are for many and especially the families of the dead who have come from around the world.
When we danced at Mollett Street a few weeks ago it was a metres away from where the Colombo St bus was on Feb 22. I knew the bus driver, and he would have had a sardonic enjoyment of that.
Yeah and +10 to Public Address, all of you. David and Emma especially for actually being able to write still. Ian Dalziel for wonderful weirdnesses and wordplay. And the Capture threads have been such good holidays for the head. Thank you all from a newbie. -
Hard News: CELEBRITY DRUG SHOCK NEWS! AGAIN., in reply to Craig Ranapia,
And Vanity Fair is a big part of the problem.
You've lost me. Vanity fair is variable in the "quality" of its subjects -- but it's always a well-written and slick piece of work. Rupe is the problem; or perhaps its the people who buy his products that are the problem.

Hard News: CELEBRITY DRUG SHOCK NEWS! AGAIN., in reply to Craig Ranapia,
I read somewhere, probably a Vanity Fair or similar, that the Kennedys could muster up a football team each of recoveries and non-recoveries at family gatherings.
