These images are the start of a group project about time and transport. By using alternative and non-subtle ways of capturing the atmosphere of the London underground network, we explored the notion of watching and being watched. As a secure site, photography is not permitted without strict and limiting permissions. By by using alternative image capture processes such as large format pinhole and scanner cameras, we aimed to question and push the limits of the ban on photography within the system of tunnels and tracks by purposefully being less than discrete. In doing so we have we have created a set of images that focus on the juxtaposition between the congestion of the network and the seclusion of its travellers, the rules and their enforcement.

We decided where better to exhibit these images than on the trains themselves. So thats what we did! If you are on the central line over the next few days, hop on the middle carriage and have a look.

This is really important. Dog’s shed heat by panting (instead of sweating) - they expel moisture and heat as they pant and if that humid air stays around them, they will no longer cool down but will instead heat up even more, and become dehydrated at their body tries even harder to get rid of heat through panting.

A dog can get heatstroke out in the open if they are panting too heavily and making the air around them too humid and stuffy - they need to be moved (if possible). If that can happen to a dog sitting out in the open think about how much worse it would be within an enclose space like a car. Hyperthermia will kill a dog and it is a terrible way to go.

dont leave your dog in your car you pricks

That goes for outside too when the heat really picks up.

horreure:

A honeybee’s stinger is made of two barbed lancets. When the bee stings, it can’t pull the stinger back out. It leaves behind not only the stinger but also part of its digestive tract, plus muscles and nerves. This massive abdominal rupture is what kills the bee.

98 year old dobri dobrev, a man who lost his hearing in the second world war, walks 10 kilometers from his village in his homemade clothes and leather shoes to the city of sofia, where he spends the day begging for money.

though a well known fixture around several of the city’s churches, known for his prostrations of thanks to all donors, it was only recently discovered that he has donated every penny he has collected — over 40,000 euros — towards the restoration of decaying bulgarian monasteries and churches and the utility bills of orphanages, living instead off his monthly state pension of 80 euros.

aaahghh my heart :’)
