xxSeptember 7, 2017 at 12:42 am #53944idle_handsParticipantSad news. He was a stalwart farktographer
July 13, 2014 at 12:41 am #53099idle_handsParticipantThanks linguine!
July 10, 2014 at 9:49 pm #53097idle_handsParticipantOoh, shiny! Thanks guys!
November 16, 2010 at 6:46 pm #34638idle_handsParticipantCongratulations and best wishes you guys. Just rec’d your email aboot the buke and noted how you two met on farktography and are now getting married! Well, as we used to say: Woot! I would *love* to be there but the home my kids have stashed me in only lets me out on weekends and this fancy high tech walker would never make it through airport security jkjkijk. I will however be there in spirit my dears. I’ll be the one over there in the funny big wide brimmed hat, weeping big fat tears (at weddings are you kidding? well i guess!) & whose camera keeps flashing at just the wrong times.
Also: May all your troubles be wee ones.
May 15, 2009 at 4:42 pm #22713idle_handsParticipantso olavf and i were down in old sacramento yesterday taking pix and we went out onto the tower bridge to see if any views from there might be suitable for the upcoming tilt-shipt contest. a bycyclist came along and olav may or may not have taken his picture, i’m not sure, but i’m guessing not since he wouldn’t have had a lot of warning and the guy was moving fast. shortly after that, this woman approaches olav and starts telling him that it was illegal to take that guy’s picture without his permission. she was older, maybe in her sixties, long grey hair in a messy ponytail, t-shirt tied in knot in front, not wearing a bra and she should, gah my eyes. i approached them both as she was telling olav she was a police officer and that olav was breaking the law and he couldn’t just go around taking pictures of people without their permission. i keep a copy of the photographer’s bill of rights in my purse, because with my point and shoot that was where i kept my camera — after this incident olav and i both have one in our camera bags. it wouldn’t have mattered if i had it though, because she was 100% nutbar though. arms waving about muttering ‘who do they think they are, just going around taking pictures’ as we walked away. i said “um, people?” but i said it to the air in front of me rather than go back and fan the flames.
i know she was just a nutcase, but she got in my man’s face and i wanted to KITBASH her… off the bridge if need be. i get really riled when people mess with people i love. 😀 we walked slowly across the bridge and she didn’t follow us but we could hear her ranting about us for more than 5 minutes. i told olav just let me talk to her if she’s there when we go back, i’ll even be nice (i’m sure he doubted that last part). i said i’d have my phone in my hand and say “ma’m, you are bothering us. if you do not stop at once, i will call the police.” (hey, that’s nice, it’s translated from ‘get out of our way you fucking psycho or i’m calling the cops.”) and if she didn’t stop, i’d call the fucking police. hey lady, i bet the jail is air-conditioned, is that what you’re after? olav tried to be very polite to her but she twisted every thing he said into an affront and really seemed to think photography was illegal. 😯
That’s just very sad. Every city always has a few people who can’t find their way to harm reduction shelters, that’s if those shelters even exist. Not every city has one. Sacramento’s resources have been stretched to the limit and threatened cutbacks mean that more people will be homeless and vulnerable.

September 4, 2008 at 3:14 pm #18856idle_handsParticipantocchhh, haven’t had enough cuppas yet. here’s the link to photoforum buke:
September 4, 2008 at 2:41 pm #18854idle_handsParticipantoops, edit that to say:
*** talk of revenue has the potential to get waaay too messy …
September 4, 2008 at 2:38 pm #18853idle_handsParticipanti would be in favour of this as a group project.
do you mean something like this:
www.http://www.lulu.com/en/products/photo_books/
the photography list group at RIT made one. check it out here:

talk of revenue is probably premature (and would get way too messy) since i *think* there would be costs associated with making a book. if entered into with the thought of simply exposing the work beyond fark then it’s fine with me.
September 3, 2008 at 10:43 pm #3877idle_handsParticipantWoot! thanks XenPix, and all who participated! (smiling happily)
August 13, 2008 at 11:30 pm #17628idle_handsParticipanti’m pretty sure i’m “Doing It Wrong” on this one tonight… it’s more an optical illusion i think. o well.. looking forward to seeing what folks come up with
