Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

In this image taken at a hike I did at Parramatta River, I was fascinated by how a place like this could exist in a populated city. The rocks, dirt, trees, and few animals live freely in this area giving a unique sense of liveliness no where seen in the bustling city. No signs of human interruption are present in the image other than the one taking the image. I felt as if I was intruding and was not supposed to be there. Despite this, I took the image to capture the traditional naturalness of the river and the life that surrounded it that was so peaceful.plain2021-04-24T23:16:01-07:00Sigi Jöttkandt4115726eb75e75e43252a5cbfc72a780d0304d7d
