According to Buddha

Cultivate doing good. It can be done. If it brought deprivation and sorrow, I would not ask you to do it. But since it brings blessing and happiness, I do ask of you: cultivate doing good.

do you come from a land down under
where women glow and men plunder
can’t you hear, can’t you hear the thunder
you better run, you better take cover
buying bread from a man in brussels
he was six foot four and full of muscle
i said, “do you speak-a my language?”
he just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich
and he said:

    I Especially like the last photo. Though these guy are obviously posing for the picture, it looks quite natural at the same time.

  11. thanks for your care in asking their permission, and for telling us!

    • ☺️🙏thanks Penny it’s part of the challenge from a class as I learn more about street…I do catch candid shots but with my little black box humans see me…so often I get permission after the snap as I show them…here the challenge is to learn a wee bit about the humans…hope to go out again shortly to practice🤍🤓happy weekending ~ sending joy hedy

      • I rarely include people, but when I do I avoid faces & prefer side or from behind or somehow identity obscured; and I never take children’s photos except from behind and at enough distance that they are anonymous — it’s about respect (people are not animals in the zoo) and also, alas, safety

        icelandpenny 8 April 2022 at 6pm

        • I always think if it was me or my loved one how would I like them to be celebrated I rarely do sneak shots or shots from behind…I think about my personal photography ethics a lot as I do throughly enjoy street photography and humans…getting permission feels best for me…today I had another wonderful encounter I can tell how much humans want to chat…life is alive and happening again bit by bit…happy weekending Penny 🤓☀️hugs hedy

  12. Men at work doing good. Excellent post Hedy.
    (Nice video too. Like many I’d heard the song but never seen it…)
    The two mechanics looked like brothers… 🙏🏻
    Be good.
