Photographer's Note
Earth Day… Earth Day...
Many of us, the inhabitants of the planet Earth, are wandering around in awe about the countless mysteries surrounding our origins, our present times and, our future. Our planet is an incredibly fragile place to depend on it, but - since we have no choice and, since the Obama administration (these liberal baast'rds) cut the funds for NASA on exploring the outer space - what else is there for us, if not live and die, right here, where we are right now.
Since our scientists are so inept and, completely unable to explain even the most simplest questions about our distant beginnings or, how the Universe was formed - our only dependable source of solid, deep knowledge are - for the last couple of thousand years - the holy books and scriptures of many various religious denominations and, the most true of them all - the gospels, a.k.a. words of god.
In a wake of recent catastrophic earthquakes, we asked the intriguing questions and, again - the most plausible explanation came from the prominent, religious figure, a cleric of Islamic Republic of Iran - Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi, who simply declared yesterday:
The earthquakes are result of wearing skimpy clothes, shamelessly exposed by the decadent women of the west !
This stunning, scientific revelation collides somehow with the previous scientific hypotheses by another, deeply informed insider, rev. Pat Robertson (good, ol' USA) - within the catholic, inner circles - that, the earthquake in Haiti was caused by the pact with the devil, against the French rules of that country.
I'll take the explanation of the deeply educated Islamic scientist over the catholic one - any time of the day or night and, I'm willing to accept the trade in - quite happily.
You, morally debouched women of the west - you let me have a peek from time to time on your earthly treasures, exposed so beautifully by the modern fashion and, I won't give a flying shakirabooty about any earthquake, here and there.
And, how's your Earth Day, ladies and gentlemen?
How's your photo activity ? Snapped some green bushes - lately ?

Nice to see you back to normal, George.
The biodiversity of fish here is amazing, and even more how you explain the world.
Compliments, Chris

Hello George,
Only the Canadians would support Earth Day with "Moon Shots"!
An obviously your knowledge of American politics comes from watching Fox News and listening to Rush Limbaugh.
Now we now why Canadians have the best legal narcotic drugs.
Interesting,
Ray

'unable to answer even the simplest question: how the universe was formed?' Dear friend, George! is this a simple question? And who says the scientists haven't answered it, at least by plausible theories. Since nobody was THERE when our blessed Universe was formed, it is impossible to know the answer, but the advances made by scientists in the last 80 odd years with the development of telescopes (e.g. Hubble)they made amazing discoveries about the origins of it, for example now they can measure the exact size and age of our Universe.So look into this subject a little and do not knock the scientists, thay are smarter than the average bear.
However, I still agree with Einstein when he said ' I am only sure of two things being infinite: the Universe and people's stupidity. And sometimes I am not even sure of the Universe'.
Glad to see you're still oogling young women, George.
There is still hope for you in the Universe. Regards.

Hello!
The need to wear these short clothes is a consequence of global warming. As simple as that.
It's hot in Canada's Earth Day.
:-)
Greetings,

Wrociles...
Chyba o pare dni za pozno, bo akurat cos we mnie sie definitywnie zlamalo, i stracilam syrce do fotografii, albo i do wszystkiego, i zdecydowalam sie dac sobie spokoj i z miernymi probami nowo nabytym felernym Nikonem (stary zdechl) i ludzie mi obrzydli, bo sama sobie obrzydlam, po czterech miesiacach gehenny z synem, ktora jeszcze sie nie skonczyla. Nie mam wolnej glowy do robienia zdjec, nic nie widze, gdy wychodze na ulice, a mine mam taka, ze ludzie sie nawet juz nie smieja na moj widok. No i Twoja nieobecnos tez mnie zdemotywowala, nie ma co mowic. No i dwa dni po nieobecnosci na TE, ktora miala byc dlugoterminowa, widze GOLODUPNICE POLONEZA. I jak sie tu nie usmiechnac ? I jak nie pomyslec o jakims spacerku z aparatem ? Moze...choc nie wiadomo.
Polonez niby wrocil (na dlugo)? i to z jajem, ale jakis inny, bo nawet rozowych spodniczek nie zamienil na czerwone ;))). Ale w tym kontekscie te kolorzyska, a nawet bujna trawa, pasuja. Ale powiedz, gdzie tobie oczy lataja ? Trzeba bylo sie jeszcze schylic trochu, i dopiero by bylo ;))).
Sciskam, zdemotywowana Grazyna.

Indeed they are in the pink of health, the little one adds a apt element of juxtaposition. we know what she might become 20-30 years hence...infact if i can do the math right..she would be around 25 now..yes i can picture her at the flee market !!!
a 'bendover' that never was ;)
have a flying weekend my friend..

I can see what attracted you to this little scene George. Great note - obviously these clerics should stick to what they know best (whatever that is!)

Cóż. Położona w strefie sejsmicznie nieczynnej Polska nie zdołała wykształcić żadnych równie spektakularnych teorii wyjaśniających zjawisko trzęsienia ziemi. Za to - w ramach podsycania legendy o polskiej wrodzonej tolerancji - koniakowskie koronczarki produkują przepiękne koniakowskie stringi. I patrząc na to piękne różowe zgrupowanie perwersyjnie mam ochotę dodać polski ludowy akcent do tej scenki oferując paniom cepeliowskie stringi. Również młodej damie - może trochę na wyrost, ale nie takim znów odległy :)))
Pozdrowienia z kraju, gdzie wszystko się trzęsie tylko nie ziemia T.
