Pride parad 2004 – part three



Today was freakin’ productive:

I watched Children Of Men(great),Gentlemen Prefer Blondes Jane Russell  kicks Marylin Monroe’s ass), Revolver(crap saved only by Ray Leone).

I scanned 3 color films and developed 6 BW(something like 10 BW and 4 color left in the fridge).

I cooked fish and taters.

I fixed the yashica lynx 14e(no meter and needs new leather).

2004 pride parade – individual people


Abbey Road


Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather
Whiplash girlchild in the dark
Comes in bells, your servant, don’t forsake him
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart

Downy sins of streetlight fancies
Chase the costumes she shall wear
Ermine furs adorn the imperious
Severin, Severin awaits you there

I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me
Different colors made of tears


Kiss the boot of shiny, shiny leather
Shiny leather in the dark
Tongue of thongs, the belt that does await you
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart

Severin, Severin, speak so slightly
Severin, down on your bended knee
Taste the whip, in love not given lightly
Taste the whip, now plead for me

I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me
Different colors made of tears

Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather
Whiplash girlchild in the dark
Severin, your servant comes in bells, please don’t forsake him
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart
(Lou Reed and teh Velvet Underground – Venus in Furs)


Girls who are boys
Who like boys to be girls
Who do boys like theyre girls
Who do girls like theyre boys
Always should be someone you really love
(Blur Girls&Boys)



כשהוא יורד לחוף בצעד לא בטוח
לבבי אליו
כמו ים פתוח
משלח את גליו.
כמו ים פתוח השוטף אל המידבר
כי מה יש פה לומר:
המלח שלי הוא המלאך שלי
הוא המלאך שלי.

עם ערב על החול, בין רציפים ומלט
ושקיעת זהב
אני צוללת
אל התכלת בעיניו.
אני צוללת שהים הוא לה מיבצר
ומה יש עוד לומר:

המלח שלי…

והוא אומר: כשאת מול הספינה עומדת
בשימלה קיצית
את מטרפדת
עמדי את כל הצי.
אני טרפדת מבקיעה אליו ישר
פשוט בשביל לומר:

המלח שלי…

ויום אחד יבוא אפליג איתו הימה
ועל ספינתו
נקימה שמה
את ביתי ואת ביתו.
וכך לא אצטרך לשאול אותו יותר
על מי הוא יותר

המלח שלי…

Myths,and the Miracle of Life

These are old(1.5-2 years?).They were taken with a pentax k1000+50/2A smc in Lachish – southern Israel.The film was konica vx 200 or kodak gold 200. This wild plum tree is at least a hundred years old, and was rumored by the bedouins to be haunted by devils(to keep children coming back fast from the nearby well with the water). I think it is magical. The myth made the haunting real.So,yes Virginia,there is a Santa Claus.


The border is an unpleasant side effect of a bad scan.I decided to keep them.

I watched Life is a Miracle – great movie – good music,nice composition and acting,great use of animals – I recommend it highly!

I discovered that some of my films(including the Prague unscanned slides and scanned BW) are nowhere to be found. To make a long tory short – the guy that I used had a heart surgery so he closed shop – he transferred all his bussiness to another shop – and the owner of this one can’t find them.Bummer.
