On May 1, 1865, in the 1st spring of freedom, Black Charlestonians held a procession to honor Union soldiers buried in a mass grave.
They came with roses. With hymns. With children.
It was the 1st Memorial Day.
But America gave the credit to others & buried the memory.

Nothing lasts forever. Recently discovered that Frank Fagleman's jewellery shop in Newcastle upon Tyne has now closed. If you knew your gold this was the go to place.
Time moves on.

A black and white photograph of a field in winter, completely covered in smooth, white snow, with the curves of a stream ditch softened by the snow on the left edge, and the darker forest at the back. The sky is darkened by a few clouds, whose shadows run across the surface of the smooth snow. In the foreground, the straight horizontal lines of the shadows of power lines, not visible in the photograph.

Photographie noir et blanc d'un champ en hiver, complètement couvert de neige blanche et lisse, avec en bordure à gauche les courbes du fossé d'un ruisseau, adouci par la neige, et en bordure à l'arrière la forêt plus sombre. Le ciel est assombri par quelques nuges, dont l'ombre court à la surface de la neige lisse. À l'avant-plan, les lignes droites horizontales de l'ombre de fils électriques, qu'on ne voit pas dans la photo.

Black and white photograph of a small tree in winter, bare of its leaves and in the middle of a field completely covered with smooth white snow. The shadows of other larger trees extend over the snow behind the small tree in the foreground. Shrubs are in the background.

Photographie noir et blanc d'un petit arbre en hiver, dénudé de ses feuilles et au milieu d'un champ complètement couvert de neige blanche et lisse. Les ombres d'autres arbres plus grands s'étendent sur la neige derrière le petit arbre à l'avant-plan. Des arbustes sont en arrière-plan.

Black and white photograph of a rural landscape in winter, showing a field covered in very smooth white snow under the sun. A stream lined with small shrubs runs across the field from left to right at the bottom of the photo. On the right, a school bus is driving on a small road with damaged asphalt. Poles and power lines gleaming in the sun line the road. To the rear and to the right, the field and road are bordered by the edge of a dark coniferous forest. The sun casts the shade of the conifers on the snow and creates a strong contrast.

Photographie noir et blanc d'un paysage rural en hiver, montrant un champ couvert de neige blanche très lisse sous le soleil. Un ruisseau bordé de petits arbustes traverse le champ de gauche à droite dans le bas de la photo. À droite, un autobus scolaire roule sur une petite route à l'asphalte endommagée. Des poteaux et des lignes électriques brillant au soleil bordent la route. À l'arrière et à droite, le champ et la route sont bordée par la lisière d'une forêt de conifères sombre. Le soleil projette l'ombre des conifères sur la neige et créé un contraste fort.

Perched on a spire at the front of Chepstow Methodist Church sits a seagull. You perhaps wouldn't notice her unless she was pointed out to you. I can't guarantee she'll be there tomorrow, but, you never know.

In Broad Daylight

Ghosts and ghouls are said to inhabit the realms of darkness. Not this one. This sad soul, a shadow of despondency, just stood there mid afternoon large as life. After taking the shot it disappeared.

Minding The Flock

They called him John the Bird. If anyone knew how to mind a flock of geese it was John. Just don't let him anywhere near the cider.
He's doing what now?

Vintage looking black and white film photograph showing a poultry farmer of old guzzling a flagon of cider. Well, that's what I think he was doing. He's seen from behind, a bit of a distance away, standing in a sunny paddock with geese.

Barbara Jordan—a Black woman from Houston’s Fifth Ward—crossed every line drawn to keep her out: the color line, the gender line, the sexuality line, the Mason-Dixon line. And when, 49 years ago this week, the nation asked who would speak for America in crisis, she answered. With conviction. With the Constitution. And with a voice they never forgot.

On August 21, 194 years ago in less than a month, Nat Turner led a revolt. Dozens died. But what haunted white Southerners wasn’t the blood—it was the intention. The reading. The prophecy. The belief that enslaved people could think, lead, and judge.

"One Ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them"
-- J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings

#PletzfeldMomentsInTime #photography #MinimalismMonday #minimalism #MonochromeMarch #MonochromeMonday #monochrome #BlackAndWhite #BlackAndWhitePhotography #bw #bnw #darktable #mywork #myphoto

This is a black-and-white close-up photograph of a sturdy metal hitching ring mounted on a very old, heavily weathered wooden barn wall. The wood shows a rough, deeply cracked texture. The grain runs straight up and down like long wrinkles. You can feel how old and worn the wood is: there are splits, peeling patches, dark knots, and areas where the surface has eroded. Right in the center sits a rectangular metal mounting plate, solidly fixed to the wood with four screws — one at each corner — each with a clear star-shaped head. The metal plate itself is a bit shiny in places but also shows tarnish, scratches, and the patina of long use. Attached to the middle of this plate is a large, thick, perfectly circular metal ring. The ring dangles freely downward, smooth and solid, big enough to easily loop a lead rope or reins through. The lighting creates sharp contrast: the bright metallic hardware stands out strongly against the dark, textured wood. The photo is tightly framed so nothing else is visible — just this simple, practical piece of farm equipment. Overall feeling: rugged, reliable, and full of character. It’s exactly the kind of ring you would find on an old stable or barn to safely tie up a horse while brushing, feeding, or saddling it.

on the edge

#monochrome #blackandwhite #photography

Black and white photograph of plants and shrubs partially protruding from a field covered in smooth, white snow. The tracks of an animal, probably a deer, cross the image from bottom to top, curving to the left and following the edge of a trench in the snow, formed by a stream, invisible and hidden beneath the snow.

Photographie noir et blanc de plantes et d'arbustes dépassant en partie d'un champ recouvert de neige blanche et lisse. Des traces d'un animal, probablement un chevreuil, traverse l'image du bas vers le haut en faisant une courbe vers la gauche et en suivant le rebord d'une tranchée dans la neige, formée par un ruisseau, invisible et sous la neige.

Built with WordPress, the default Twenty Twenty-Five theme, the block editor and a few extra plugins/tools such as Twentig, Kadence Advanced Gallery Block and the Icon Block.

Also my first time using SureRank instead of Yoast for the SEO side of things. I'm sold. So clean and modern.
