PESO - M. de la Rue
I took this over a year ago but I don't think I ever posted it here. Martin de la Rue is sort of a stage name he uses - almost a performance art thing he does where he plays a French postman. His real name is Tino and he's an avid cyclist and photographer. I called his name, he turned and smiled when he recognized me: http://knarfdummyblog.blogspot.ca/2014/04/m-de-la-rue.html?m=0 I love a nice smile. Hope you enjoy. Comments welcome.

Re: PESO ~ Shadow play
If you see sexualization, then that is what you see. It may not be what someone else sees. She's showing her tits, Bill. Please show me an adult who doesn't think that's sexual! At this point I'm not even saying it's bad, but to deny it's sexual? Generally speaking, exploitation doesn't involve consent. I guess it depends on what consent means, doesn't it? Power, who has it and who doesn't, has a huge part to play whether one can be said to truly consent. Do think that blacks working on the railways back in the '40s and 50's were exploited? They did demeaning work, never rose to supervisory positions yet they got decent pay compared to many in their community. Whites got paid much more and had much better working conditions. The fact that blacks agreed to the jobs and pay doesn't mean they weren't exploited. If it's normal and acceptable, then by definition it's okay. By your definition slavery was okay. If a person is comfortable with the process, then your discomfort is your problem, and is something that you are trying to project onto them. Actually I think the problem is that so many are comfortable with this. I think the fact that so many don't see a disparity between portrayals of men and women in the media is the problem. I think the fact that so many see the disparity and are okay with it is the problem.

Not by Bruce but by a society that puts a value on the sexualization and objectification of women. Being a consenting part of the process doesn't mean one isn't being exploited. Now it's my turn to ask if you are serious. Exploitation: the action or fact of treating someone unfairly in order to benefit from their work. Was the model treated unfairly? Did Bruce have to threaten her or drug her into a stupor to get her to pose? The whole exploitation thing is a construct of people who want to control others through shaming them. If a person wants to be exploited, they will be exploited. Oops, if they want to be exploited, that takes away the unfair part of the definition. We're all socialized to see this as normal and acceptable but does that mean it's okay? If it's normal and acceptable, then by definition it's okay. Men and women are portrayed far differently by the media. Yes, men can be sexualized, but in a very different way, and certainly far less frequently than women. My problem isn't necessarily with this individual photo or with Bruce. It's that this is a part of the exploitation and objectification that goes on every day on TV, in movies, magazines, and advertising of all kinds. Women ~are~ treated differently than men especially in sexual portrayals, and to the extent that this photo is a part of that, I feel very uncomfortable.

If it is of any comfort to you, the model, Dorrie, fully participates in and approves of every part of the image creation process. I think this is where the whole exploitation via sexualization and objectification argument falls on it's face. When the subject is a willing participant in the process, who is being exploited? Who is sexualizing the model? Is it the photographer who has taken a picture of the model? The artist who sketches or paints a likeness of the model? Or is it the viewer who sexualizes and objectifies the model with his or her own preconceptions? There is a very tired old argument that art was invented to get women out of their clothes. Perhaps it is true, perhaps it isn't, but the argument ignores the reality that the subject has to be a willing participant in the process for the process to happen, which effectively torpedoes the whole exploitation argument. This is almost an aside, and should go into another post, but the image in question is quite nice, though not one of the best pictures I've seen you do of Dorrie. bill -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.

I'm so sorry Christine! I share Darren's sentiments but not his eloquence. I will simply say that as I lost my dad fifteen years ago, I feel your pain.

He was 84 and had been suffering with congestive heart failure. My dad would have fit right in PDML. He had a great sense of humor, was extremely generous, told funny stories, and was a solid photographer in his own right. Someday, I’ll scan some of his slides and post them; they are really quite good. He used to shoot with a Minolta—I think. I don’t know if his camera is still in the house. Some of his funniest stories were about his paratrooper days. Dad served in Korea, and when his tour was completed he reenlisted in the reserves, went to jump school, and served as a paratrooper in the 12th Special Forces. He never jumped during active duty, but he completed 60+ jumps during his reserve service. He also earned Canadian wings during jump school training in Canada. After 31 years of military service, he retired Master Sergeant E9. He is 81 in the photo below. When I took this photo three years ago, I thought for sure he’d be around for a good while longer. He looks so fit and young for 81. But in the last year and a half, his health turned. He died at home with everyone near by and surrounded in love. Love you, Dad! Miss you tons!

Re: OT: First Adult Bike
The Giant factory in Taiwan is the world's largest bicycle factory. For years they made frames for other manufacturers but about 30 years ago they started branding their own. And you're right, they make good bikes. Many top manufacturers, like Specialized have all but their top racing frames made in Taiwan, likely by Giant. And many well-known brands (like Bianchi of Italy) have their more affordable bikes made in Taiwan - by Giant. BTW, virtually every carbon fibre frame, regardless of manufacturer, is made in mainland China. No one else has the facilities. Glad I ride Italian steel. :-) Cheers, frank On 22 July, 2015 7:06:40 PM EDT, John sesso...@earthlink.net wrote: On 7/22/2015 5:08 PM, paul stenquist wrote: Gracie has her first adult bike.

Impressive shot of the Vulcan with the Red Arrows. I heard this will be her last season in the air. So many older vintage aircraft are still flying, I wonder why they can't keep this one up? Is it money? Kind of sad, she's a beautiful aircraft. And I like the group shot.
