Looks like the fella in right already had his share. Opposite to that worker who probably has so small paycheck that she´s couldn´t affort to eat in Subway. And no way they´re allowed to eat on discount or for free.
And I´m 101% sure they´re recorded with cctv. In these little places they work solo and employer surely wants to know what´s going on. Which is in their rights. But most of these workers don´t eat nor dring before - and during - work hours because there´s no toiletbreaks. And there´s no coffe- or lunch-breaks either. Which is odd because they´re required by law.
One good thing comes out of that. Workers - who are mostly young students - will study harder so they don´t need to do work like this in the future. I mostly avoid fastfood places. And when I do go in one I always treat workers nice. They´re constantly treated like shit by customers. Many is even sexually harrased by customers. Just pondering how all this is even possible. We live a very strange world imho.
Tällä viikolla Saturday Classic; Cher - Dark Lady. Aivan loistava biisi. Sekä musiikillisesti että lyyrisesti. Videokin on ihan tykkii settii. Itselle Suomi versio on tutumpi. Täytyy antaa pisteet suomentajalle, lyriikat on liki yks yhteen. Ja ne vieläpä rimmaa, uskomatonta. Linkeissä lisätietoa as per usual. Press play. 👇
What? Wikipedia page of it can be found here. Todays paper has this story about the subject matter. It´s in Finnish so I won´t link it here. As it happens I photographed these canned tunas while back.
Basicly it´s about how to srcew people when they´re shopping. Product itself has srinken but the prize doesn´t drop as much in comparison i.e. it´s actually more expensive. This pisses me off, big time. But what can one do? Go to another shop? They do it too so.. It should be illegal but for some odd reason it´s not. Fucking market economy. Rich people exploits poor people. It´s so unfair. Any thoughts on this?
This is a market place of my beloved hometown Lahti, Finland. Not alot action in a ordinary weekday morning. Couple dozen - or so - peoples in those outdoor cafe´s on the right. But that´s about it really.
Judging the photo it´s huge. It´s due me using 16mm (on a full frame). It enormously exaggerates the depth perspective. I mean; look at one of those stones on foreground, one of them could easily cover that church tower in the horizon. Which is 40m (131ft) tall. So there you have it.
Bit more abstract one. I was photographing outdoors, after I was done I putted my camera in my rucksack. When I returned to home I find dozen - or so . pictures like this in my camera.
And my brand new rubber boot. Didn´t paint those myself, there´s some digging going on there. So this is their markings. They´re my real life initials too not just my net-nick. My real nick name is Pisi, been called that since -83. All my old friend and 100+ drinking buddies calls me that. And so does my brother and mother. Prkl I added later, it´s short version of word Perkele. Which basicly means the devil. But it´s very usable word bit like the f-word. Suits fine with my bit roughf image.
Friday was phenomenaly warm Autumn day. Almost the highest in recorded history. 22 degree Celcius (71.6F) it was. And all blue sky. That would be a great Summer day too, it was that warm. Me and my mom went for a hike in the woods. Wellcome to Lahti Healt Forrest.
It was new route to me. There´s all these marking along the way. That orange tree/man sign we was following. There´s hundreds of small walk paths and there´s marking at every path crossing so you wouldn´t go the wrong way.
Been there, done that. There´s more than 100 of these small paths in this area. We shall return the area. Next time I´m navigating. My legs are killing me yet still. Very sore indeed. It was a very hard for me but am pleased we did it. I literaly hugged a tree first time in my life. It felt bit weird and very nice at the same time.
Today day and night is equally long globaly. My Southern Hemisphere blog friends are going towards Summer starting tomorrow. Us Northern folks the darkness is coming. Night will prevail so to speak. Day is turning into a night, last light of the day. Good Night to all my viewers!!!

You gotta keep 'em separated
Like the latest fashion
Like a spreading disease
The kids are strappin' on their way to the classroom
Getting weapons with the greatest of ease
The gangs stake out their own campus locale
And if they catch you slippin' then it's all over pal
If one guy's colors and the other's don't mix
They're gonna bash it up, bash it up, bash it up, bash it upHey, man, you talkin' back to me?
Take him out (you gotta keep 'em separated)
Hey, man, you disrespecting me?
Take him out (you gotta keep 'em separated)
Hey, they don't pay no mind
If you're under 18 you won't be doing any time
Hey, come out and play
By the time you hear the siren
It's already too late
One goes to the morgue and the other to jail
One guy's wasted and the other's a waste
It goes down the same as the thousand before
No one's getting smarter, no one's learning the score
Your never-ending spree of death and violence and hate
Is gonna tie your own rope, tie your own rope, tie your own...
Hey, man, you disrespecting me?
Take him out (you gotta keep 'em separated
Hey, man, you talkin' back to me?
Take him out (you gotta keep 'em separated)

Hey, man, you talking back to me?

I was shooting this rainbow back in July. I focused on the tree line. I was shooting wide open (f4 at 70mm) when this bird flew in my frame. I just had to pull the trigger, it was a reflex shot. Bird is bit bokeh, it was way closer than the tree line so that´s why.
If you look close enoughf you can see faint rainbow at the right of that clearly visible one.

Few dead leafs on the ground. Red-ish colors on female hairs. Seems to be this season´s trend. The girl nearest to camera has some motion blur on her left leg. Plain blue skies reflecting from bus windows. Skywatch Friday & Weekend Street/Refalections
Ok. It´s 12th of September. Sun is shining and it´s 22C (71.6F) in shadow. First few leafs are turning to yellow. And X-mas Candies are for sale. This must be World Record, right? Any thoughts on this?
In the background grills and firewood is low on inventory. But who wants them this time of year? Nobody that´s who. But it´s "bit" too early for X-mas shit imho. My corner of the World
That would be nice name for a photo meme. For photos of most mundane things we all see around us everyday. All though subjects might be boring and down right ugly photos don´t need to be so. Well it´s just a thought, am not gonna host my own photo meme. Too much trouble I think.

Tänään ei soiteta Paranoidia, soitetaan sen sijaan Black Sabbathin Neon Knights. Tuttuun tapaan bändilinkki vie bändin Wikisivulle ja biisin linkki biisin vastaavalle. Tässä Saturday Classic tällä viikolla;
Fantastic weather for Autumn. Sun was shining and it was almost Summery warm. I just had to go outdooring. My Mom lives near Salpakangas Disk Golf Park so we did go there to throw some frisbees. We both suck at it but it´s fun. Short - and successful - put by her pictured here. She did find some shrooms also. Classic two birds, one stone situation.
I tracked our moves by my mobile. This is how it looks on the map.

Yesterday was a quite strong storm. Autumn is right around the corner. My Corner of the World
Can anyone tell me what this is?
Anyone? No? Ok I´ll tell you. It´s an old school air pressure meter. When it rains (i.e. when it´s low air pressure) the twig points downwards. Come sunshine and what? Low and behold, it´s pointing upwards (i.e. it´s high air pressure).
