One of the first daguerreotype images of an outdoor political crowd, taken at the Great Chartist Meeting, on Kennington Common in London, on 10 April 1848 by William Edward Kilburn.
Musicians dressed in colourful traditional clothing, one in an elaborate feathered hat, playing pan flutes at the annual festival in Taquile island on Lake Titicaca.

Keith Urban performing on stage under colorful lights. Confetti cannons have just gone off so brightly coloured pieces of paper fill the air. The stage features a vibrant LED light display with a geometric pattern, and Keith, wearing a black shirt, plays a guitar while raising one arm. Bright green and yellow stage lights enhance the celebratory atmosphere. A smartphone screen in the foreground captures the moment.
Going out with a Bang

The peloton of the Tour de France going up a steep hill which curves around to the left, there are crowds on either side of the road, there are more on the right standing on a bank.

Current exhibition looks at the Workers Film & Photo League, active in the East End of London (and many other places) in the '30's. They put on some really good exhibitions here and are very active in the local community.

A cheeky late entry to give some publicity to Four Corners in Bethnal Green, London. A small place with a very big history in East End film and photo. www.fourcornersfilm.co.uk
NOT my picture.

The image shows an outdoor ceremony taking place in a wooden pavilion overlooking a body of water. A man, the deceased actor Paul Newman and woman, myself, are at the center, the man gesturing animatedly and the woman holding papers - she is translating the text in French. A group of children, some wearing hats, are seated in front of them, appearing attentive. The scene is casual yet celebratory, with a painted "Great Wall of Fame" ceiling featuring various fish designs, indicating a fishing event. The overall atmosphere suggests a fun or community gathering.
Reading an ode to the worms by the pond, to the kids, with Paul Newman, at one of his summer camps for sick children (the Hole in the Wall Gang camp) - what a summer it was. I am holding my hand as I am so impressed by the super-star.

Last night at the Krewe of Chewbacchus parade.
The sky is bright blue. Artist Anita Heckman, with long hair, is wearing a light blue brimmed hat, sunglasses and periwinkle blue jacket. In her left hand, she holds up her large cardboard, hand-painted sign that says: “Just like the Moons and Sun, with the certainty of Tides, Just like hopes springing high, STILL I’LL RISE, — Maya Angelou,” at the MLK People’s March, Santa Cruz, California on 1/20/2025. Anita is marching with others from the ARRT: Artists Respond and Resist Together contingent. Portions of other ARRT signs, all with yellow and black caution tape on the edges, are on the left and right. Link to a lively reading by Maya Angelou of the full version of the poem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qviM_GnJbOM

It’s a beautiful blue sky day at the Martin Luther King Jr. People’s March in Santa Cruz, CA on 1/20/2025. A large artful banner held by several people who are marching that says: Santa Cruz County ARRT: Artists Respond and Resist Together. It is white with black and red lettering. Behind the banner, more people from the ARRT contingent hold up hand-made signs with inspiring quotes: “Organize, agitate, educate, must be our war cry.” —Susan B. Anthony; “They want you to think that it’s hopeless. It’s never hopeless.” — Timothy Snyder; “Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle.” — M.L. King, Jr.; “All changes must come from democracy, equal rights, nonviolence and peace.” — Greta Thunberg; “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that.” — M.L. King, Jr.; “We will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. — M.L. King, Jr.; “ARRT builds community”

Hans Zimmer in concert. Enough said. #AlphabetChallenge #WeekEforEvents
A string quarter of music students performing at a busy street intersection in Vienna, Austria. The three standing musicians - two male and one female - are playing violins, whilst the seated female musician is playing a cello. Behind them is an information post and further back buildings in the center of the city with many people visible going about their business.
And from the previous solo violinist in Denver I pluck a string quartet from my photos of Vienna. I always stop and take a snap or three of street performers and drop a couple of euros in their instrument case, hat or tin.

The Pointer Sisters in red dresses singing and dancing on a small stage (that was in one of the parties). Others were En Vogue, Steve Miller, Daughtry Carrie Underwood - National Anthem Queen Latifah - America the Beautiful
Steve Winwood singing and playing guitar. Pic is looking up at him, he is wearing sunglasses and his guitar is a light greenish blue, there is a blue sky behind him (this was at tailgate in a parking lot outside before the super bowl).
The Who playing halftime. The stadium was dark, the stage was in the middle of circles of light and there were fireworks.
Pic shows them taking apart the stage and lights - several people dressed in black are moving the items - they were fast!
2010 Super Bowl, luckily my sis broke up w her bf😊so I got to go, including the NFL parties before it – that had great live music!
