This year we commemorate the 78th anniversary of the Warsaw Uprising . Join the Poles today on August 1 at 5 PM CET/11 AM ET for one minute of silence—symbolizing the W-Hour , the codename for the date and time that began Operation Tempest in German-occupied Warsaw, and hence the Warsaw Uprising. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warsaw_Uprising For many years it was my Dad who used to put the flag there on every August 1. Since he had passed it became my duty to do it. The flag will be there till October 2. That's how long the Uprising lasted. Excerpt from a German report: "The 9th Army has crushed the final resistance in the southern Vistula circle. The resistance fought to the very last bullet.

The archaeological open air museum Biskupin is an archaeological site and a life-size model of an Iron a late Bronze Age fortified settlement in Poland. The original settlement was built in the second half of the 8th century BCE (just around the time when Rome was founded). Dendrochronological studies of construction timber revealed that it was obtained in 747-722 BCE, most of which in the winter of 737 BCE. Ca. 100 oak and pine log-houses were of similar layout, measuring ca. 8 by 10 metres (26 by 33 feet) each. They consisted of two chambers and an open entrance-area. These houses were designed to accommodate 10–12 persons. An open hearth was located in the centre of the biggest room. There are no larger houses that could indicate social stratification. Because of the damp, boggy ground the streets were covered with wooden planks. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biskupin ----- Mamiya 645 AF + Kodak Tri-X 400 + Kodak HC-110 (Dil.B)

Once upon a time... When I was a digital shooter I bought a set of Cokin filters and did my best trying to use them 'creatively'. Not my kettle of fish... I sold those filters some time later. ----- Olympus C-8080WZ + Cokin Gradual Tobacco

When I was a kid I used to spend two weeks of my summer holidays at a small village at the Baltic sea coast. There were beautiful golden sand beaches there. But I always preferred another place (several kilometers to the east) where I could find treasure troves of colorful stones like that. Every summer I tried to smuggle some of them into our luggage and bring them home. Every summer I negotiated with my Dad who'd eventually let me choose three of them provided it was me who actually carried them in my knapsack on our way back home (no family car then ment 12-hours journey by bus and train but I didn't mind that). Many years later I revisited the place with my daughter. Fortunately she was not that interested in collecting stones so I took some photos instead. ----- Olympus C-220Z Taken 20 years ago with my first digital camera.

My Mom's favorite yellow lilies are blooming just now. Unfortunately Mom cannot see them in person - she is too weak to leave her floor, go downstairs and out into the garden. So I'll be taking photos of these beauties and showing them to her. ----- Asus Zenfone

Happy Name Day, Dad! I brought you some flowers again. Do you like them? I know, i know... You'd liked them better it they were violet, right? But those white ones are from me, yellow ones are from Mum so bear with us this time. You'll get your favorite violet chrysanthemums next time, I promise. I miss you so much, Dad... ----- Asus Zenfone
