The Day The World Ended (1956 Trailer)

I have not seen this film!  But listen carefully to the dialog which begins the trailer:

Blond-Haired Leading Man #1:  “There are 2 forms of life fighting for survival out here in this valley and only one of them can win.”

Grim-Faced Man #2:  “I’ll talk to the girls in the morning.”

Blond-Haired Leading Man #1:  “The girls?”

Grim-Faced Man #2:  “Yes.  They should bear children as soon as possible.”

The Road

Specifically the road between Kishtwar and Kishtwar Kailash basecamp in the Indian Himalaya (thanks to my friend Phil Arnot for sending this link!):

!!!  Takes your breath away (can’t really think of anything witty to say beyond that) !!!  More information can be found in this appropriately named website:  www.dangerousroads.org

camera test

This is a test (!)  I got a new toy: a Sony Cybershot DSC-RX100M3, a high end point & shoot that is very compact. It’s freaking awesome (even though the manual is virtually unreadable).  Maybe I should say tests instead of just “test”.  Simply put, it’s just a collection of pretty sketches, done quickly and with great resolution on this tiny yet mighty camera.
