PESO - On Guard

My first US PESO since March; taken 3 weeks ago in upstate New York.  I don't 
know whether the cottage is occupied or abandoned, but a vigilant watch is 
posted:

PESO - On Guard

2011-06-13 Thread frank theriault
I've been waiting for this one!  Seen this little fellow before, but
have been waiting for months for him to be unobstructed and near the
sign.  The owner says he's not dangerous, but approaching strangers
make him bark, even if he's inside the house, so the sign is really
there to keep things quiet.

I think the sign's hilarious with this little pooch, and the "guardian
angel" statue helps, too:

Hope you enjoy (as much as I do!).  ;-)

Comments always welcome.

cheers,
frank

Peso: On Guard

2012-07-12 Thread Steven Desjardins

A young solider from Lexington dies about two weeks ago (Humvee hit an
IED in Afghanistan)  and was buried on Tuesday.  Those B@#$%$ from
Westboro (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westboro_Baptist_Church)
threatened to come, so the Patriot Guard and students and faculty from
both colleges came to establish a perimeter around the Catholic
Church.  Here's a shot from my position.

I'm sure that thought has occurred to many.  As with many things like
that, the positive is that many folks come out to support the
families.  All I could think was that you know you're hated when you
mange to unite two colleges, the police, the army, a biker group and
the Catholic Church against you.

A young solider from Lexington dies about two weeks ago (Humvee hit an
IED in Afghanistan)  and was buried on Tuesday.  Those B@#$%$ from
Westboro (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westboro_Baptist_Church)
threatened to come, so the Patriot Guard and students and faculty from
both colleges came to establish a perimeter around the Catholic
Church.  Here's a shot from my position.

Why has no one nailed the doors of that church shut with it's whack 
job congregation inside and set fire to the place?




Sadly, that's only done to real believers, weather actually dangerous to 
others or not,  based on behavior I'd say these people don't believe in 
anything, except an IRS tax dodge, which means that for some reason they 
are exempt from logic and other common decency.

Quite chilling. 26 years ago you wouldn't have been taking that picture. 

One nit: I wish his feet weren't cut off. But maybe you didn't want to spend a 
lot of time composing? Wouldn't blame you...

Thanks, Paul and Frank.

I noted that there seemed to be fewer police visible in Beijing than
in Tokyo, but that the ones in Tokyo were quite friendly in posture
and demeanor, while the ones in Beijing were definitely not.  They
were stiff and formal at all times.  Our Beijing guide, "Jim," did not
think it would be a problem to include the police or military in an
image of the square, but implied in the way he said it that it
probably was not a good idea to take an image of a policeman or
military guard as such.  I did include them in a few images, but never
really pointed directly at one, nor did I take an image while one was
looking at me.   In this instance, I think I was panning on the woman
with the blue umbrella, and snapped the image while the policeman was
in the frame.

I expect that by now, they're about as blasé about being photographed as
the Palace Guards in London.

They did not appear blasé about anything, and there were no Chinese
tourists taking photos of the police or soldiers.

How often do English tourists photograph the Palace Guards in London?
