It's the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen; by people who waited three hours and four hours, many for the very first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different; that their voice could be that difference. It's the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Latino, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled – Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been a collection of Red States and Blue States: we are, and always will be, the United States of America.

Aside from the book being small and handy and okay to browse thru while commuting, the small 145-page book is brimming with cool photographs taken by Mr. Moyen through a pinhole camera. Mr. Moyen, a Frenchman, uses a pinhole camera, which, according to Wiki, is "a very simple <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera" title="Camera">camera</a> with <img class="alignleft" src="http://images.wildsoul.multiply.com/image/1/photos/upload/300x300/SPyIqgoKCGsAAGrSfo41/brunomoyen01.jpg?et=3LgMzPbzZINrropIQppZ8g&nmid=0" border="0">no <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photographic_lens" title="Photographic lens">lens</a> and a single very small <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aperture" title="Aperture">aperture</a>."  The pinhole is a light-proof box with a single hole in one side. Light from a scene passes through this single point and projects an inverted image on the opposite side of the box. Cameras using small <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aperture" title="Aperture">apertures</a>, and the human eye in bright light both act like a pinhole camera. -- Wiki If you want to see more of his pictures, go to http://www.brunomoyen.com/ http://wildsoul.multiply.com/journal/item/75/a_state_of_mind_pinhole_images_by_bruno_moyen Mon, 20 Oct 2008 13:35:05 -0000 archive 31 oct 2008 bakilid, mandaue i was browsing through my photo archive, and remembered this photos from last year's halloween. funky creekers. taken by olympus mju film camera w/ kodak max 400 http://wildsoul.multiply.com/photos/album/70/archive Sun, 12 Oct 2008 13:10:42 -0000 [expired] film 19-21 sept 08 lazi, siquijor dgte city per the advice of many, i tried using 135mm films in my holga. but, these pics are not just from ordinary films, but from expired films.. specifically, i used expired solid gold films. this is, again, my first time to use an expired film.. i don't understand the red portion of the pictures.. but i love how the sprockets [that's the wholes at the top and bottom of the film] are included in the whole photo these pictures were taken during my trip home, to lazi, last http://wildsoul.multiply.com/photos/album/68/expired_film Sat, 27 Sep 2008 10:11:30 -0000 first roll... 13 sept 2008 midtown cebu this is technically my second roll of 120mm film.. because i was unsuccessful with the first black and white film... these pics were taken by fujicolor reala iso 100 holga's cool.. but the 120mm is kind of expensive, at P180 per roll with only 12 shots processing at lbc's digiprint is at P155 per http://wildsoul.multiply.com/photos/album/67/first_roll...

It’s an opportunity to do something nice for your community, your health and your planet. Here are seven simple ideas for change. 1. Save time and a lot of paper: Switch to tree-free billing and pay those bills online with the click of a button or an automatic debit. Approximately one billion trees-worth of paper are trashed each year in the U.S., and hard copy bills alone generate almost 700,000 tons of waste and almost two million tons of carbon dioxide. Both you and the planet will be happier without the excess garbage. 2. Take it a step further by preserving forests, which provide habitat for all sorts of Earth’s creatures and remove carbon dioxide from the air.  Donate to Plant-I, 2020, which will plant an indigenous tree for each dollar you give or join the Nature Conservancy in their Plant a Billion Trees program and donate to p... http://wildsoul.multiply.com/journal/item/64/happy_earth_day Tue, 22 Apr 2008 07:31:08 -0000 a seemingly perfect place     while many people, including me, would boast that siquijor is one peaceful and seemingly perfect place, news broke out that a family -- a lawyer, his parents, his brothers and in-laws, and some friends -- were captured in a buy-bust operations by PDEA 7.  the PDEA found packets of shabu in the lawyer's office, his house, and that of his parents'.  we boast of having the lowest crime rate in the region.        while we boast of beautiful beaches and friendly people, we are not separate from the world.  we also have problems that infest our bigger neighbors -- crime, drugs, extramarital affairs, graft and corruption, poverty, teenage pregnancies, unemployment.  siquijodnons are also lining up to buy the cheaper nfa rice.      http://wildsoul.multiply.com/journal/item/63/a_seemingly_perfect_place Sat, 19 Apr 2008 05:42:20 -0000
