skb day 187



It is a beautiful July morning, nice and cool, and a lovely day for cricket.

I am not a die hard cricket fan, but I am doing my stint of 'patriotic' with my full support for the St Kitts Patriots. I expect them to share licks, and more licks on their home turf ... and let the party continue.

Photography is still alive and well in SKN. On a personal note, I have changed my diets and exercise routines and I am feeling 21 again, and giving my GOD all the Thanks, Glory and Praise.

Great health is what makes our life worth living, but many of us don't seem to know until 'the doc' tells us so. With all the free health information posted on Facebook these days, I perceive that many folks are looking more seriously at health, not necessarily 'their own health", but it is a step in the right direction.  Cautiously trying out a things or two may not be that bad for some of us.

I tried out the "warm lemon water with honey first thing in the morning", and it really works as claimed. Of course I have doubled up on my vegetables intake and gingerly increasing my raw garlic intake from one clover to two. There are a few little things that could make a big difference in our health. I am off french fries, and getting ready to make my own bread and cake with locally made flour. I guess in time to come our bakeries will provide customers with bread made from breadfruit flour or green fig flour, but for now we must help ourselves and bake our own bread.

The local politic has shifted gears, and everyone is doing what they do best. I am not getting into any fray, just taking pictures, documenting and sharing the historic events that I can get to witness, and share some of these pictures with family and friends overseas. I am not surprised at some comments made because 98% of the people are still in election mode. Some folks really seem to feel that we will have another election within a year, another set believe that to be two years, but I am optimistic for five years, but only time will tell. So much for the politics.

SKN is still the most beautiful of countries in the world, just ask our visitors. If you are not seeing it, I venture to say that you may need to get a "politics" filter. Our visitors are all  'politics' free, and they really don't need to be contaminated with our politics.

The rains are here, let us enjoy our land of beauty, where we wish peace to abound this season, capture all the glorious pictures that we can, print and frame, display and share, appreciate our thrice blessed and eternally beautiful heritage.

Have a wonderful skn day.

doing something wrong

Image
I must be dong something very wrong when more than one or two or three persons on Facebook find to ask me what camera I am using to take the pictures that are posted to my Facebook photo albums. If I was doing the right thing I believe that nobody would have asked at all. I am of the view that my photos are looking normal even though I have not run them through Photoshop or Lightroom, which seem to be hailed as the professional photographic software that separate the men from the boys, or rather the professionals from the amateurs and/or whoever else, in the field of photographic reproduction. I am just making a 'comeback' into photography and really don't have the time to tangle with Photoshop and its alleged steep learning curve. I still have to learn why I must use Photoshop to alter the reality captured by my camera. Nature has spoken, but the thinking seems to be that Nature has erred and we must therefore fix it, to what we believe to be the right thing. I could see

Photo school indeed!!!!

I believe that Facebook is a rather nice place to 'lime' if and when you don't have anything better to do. If because a person would always have something better to do, like sleep, instead of Farming at 2, 3 and 4 o'clock in the morning. When is your consciously controlled time to 'lime' with your Facebook friends and family. The Facebook addiction may be a reality but nobody is taking that on these days. It may be better to be facing-the-book than out on the street, and getting into trouble, because that usually finds you especially when you least expect it. The Government of St Kitts and Nevis should be pleased to see so many of our people Facebook farming, and I hope that when they drop this interest in the real world, they are prepared to deal with the Agricultural revolution. I have relatives who have already invested in hydroponic equipment to precipitate some cyber farming into the real world. I am concerned that we may soon see a migration to the real F

12 MP could be better

Image
Who is really right? Some folks say that 6 MP is the ideal camera, some say no, it needs for more MP than that. So who really correct? Is it that they running race with film? Maybe the minimum MP has to do with the application. I believe that the human mind can spin you a perfect image with the minimum of MP. You don't have to see anything to conjure up a picture. We put you in an alleged "haunted house" and you see who and what you want to see, crystal clear, and you get free sounds too. Maybe the camera is really for mind control, because some of us still do not believe the images that we see in black-and-white or color. This could call for research.
