Das Tier des Jahres 2015 ist der Feldhase.
Durch Umwelteinflüsse sei der Bestand stark zurückgegangen, teilte die Schutzgemeinschaft Deutsches Wild am Montag in Bonn mit.
Auf der bundesweiten Roten Liste wird der Feldhase als gefährdet eingestuft. Nach Angaben des Naturschutzbundes Deutschland (Nabu) findet das Tier nur noch schwer den benötigten Lebensraum auf den Feldern. In der intensiven Landwirtschaft mit großen Ackerflächen fehlen ihm Ackerrandstreifen und kleinere Gehölze. Rebhuhn, Kiebitz, Feldlerche und Fasan teilen dieses Schicksal.

Seine geliebte Sumpfwiese ( Au-Ost Tübingen) wurde jetzt auch von Riesentraktoren umgepflügt.
Statt einmal Maht bis zum Sumpfigen, ist jetzt alles Acker, auch wenn der Traktor fast versinkt und tiefe Reifen-Furchen nach der Ernte hinterlässt.

Oh my, how slang has changed over the years....
Walking with two drinks was a pretty common sight on this cruise with both men and women, not something I've noticed much on our other trips. I guess that UK folks are wanting to make sure that their hydration level is always up?
Now when I was much, much younger if you saw your friend (or pretty much anyone) with two drinks in their hands you'd say they were Double Fisting it which was the original title I was going to use for the shot.
DO NOT AND I MEAN ABSOLUTELY DO NOT LOOK UP THE MODERN DEFINITION OF DOUBLE FISTING. IT IS DEFINITELY NSFW!!! DON'T BLAME ME IF YOU SEE THINGS THAT SHOCK YOUR EYELIDS!
I got no further than the first description (not even a link click) on Google when I realized that Double Fisting It was definitely NOT going to be the title of this shot!
Hopefully the Porn Police don't come knocking on my door, it really was an innocent search
PS, my standard disclaimer:
For those in the Show Your EXIF group you should note that the actual lens used is a Tamron AF 18-200mm F/3.5-6.3 Di-II VC All-in-One Zoom for Canon APS-C Digital SLR. It's a known issue and for some crazy reason it always shows up as a Canon TS-E 90mm f/2.8, a lens I've never owned or used!

After all the black and white photographs, colors make me feel like there's still hope, welcome back!

The Marshall....The Old West version of a Superhero!
If you saw the previous picture then you know that those crazy cowboys in the Wild West Show were up to no good with a crooked game of poker. Well, there was only one way to keep things on the straight and narrow in the Old West and that was with The Marshall. He's the one who always kept the peace in the town and today was no different. He plugged 4 of the baddest hombres this side of the Pecos with his lightning quick draw (and some great stuntman skills)!
While on the trip to the Grand Canyon I had an opportunity to talk with the Marshall for about 20 minutes (union break?) and found out he actually is a pretty interesting guy.
He goes by the nickname Dutch since he's an immigrant to the US from the Netherlands. He's a widower who has a 120 acre ranch that he runs by himself and he takes in abused and neglected wild mustangs. He told me he speaks 9 different languages which help him talk to tourists when he's playing the Marshall, something he's done for 9 years. He knows the Canyon real well and gave me a tip on where to get a shot that most people don't even notice.
When his break was over he said "Well, I've got to get inside and explain to those kids why those cowboys got back up after I shot them down". I said to him "They all play video games, just tell them that they respawned. They'll know what you mean". A tip of his hat and he was off.
For me, that was one of the best parts of this trip, getting to make a connection and learn a little bit about Dutch, the Marshall on the Grand Canyon Railway.

A Quickie All-in-one Moleskine Diary/Sketchbook in Leather Cover
The day I decided to use the Moleskine 18 months weekly diary from July I knew I would have problem pulling out what I need from my bag. It has the same size and look as the Moleskine sketch book I'm using. Knowing that I will be using both quite often in this coming half year starting from my trip to Tokyo next week, I did something drastic in 30 minutes.
First I ruined the back of these 2 notebooks by putting 4 snaps on them so that they can stick together yet removable if I want to. Note that the two notebooks are snapped together so that the top of one is aligned with the bottom of the other. There is a good enough space in between because of the height of the snaps, so it works well to put a pen holder there. I just punched and set two eyelets to hold the broad elastic band together, then a metal wire is passed through the two eyelets to make a ring which helps to keep the elastic band in place on the spines, again this is removable if I don't need a pen holder.
Assembling it is easy, just put the pen holder in between the back of these two notebooks, snap the notebooks together and there you go. At this stage leather freak like me couldn't stop but made a cover for this so that the metal ring of the pen holder is concealed and I have the look I want.
Finally, to distinguish which side is which notebook, I stamped on the leather cover "Time" for the diary side and "Note" for the sketchbook side. Whenever I feel like using the other side, I flip the notebook vertically. The original Moleskine elastic bands can be used to enclose the leather cover but I like a clean look so most of the time they are enclosing the pages only.
You are probably wondering why there are some flying pigs on one of the Moleskines, that's a gift sketchbook from Steve Light. What's that pen you asked? Pilot 1979 Murex fountain pen, also a gift from a good friend Kelly.

I've seen her before, guess this is a regular stop?
The VEGA SCORPIO (IMO: 9491599) is a Container Ship and is sailing under the flag of Cyprus. Her length overall (LOA) is 139.26 meters and her width is 22.6 meters.
As I've said above we've seen the Vega Scorpio in several different ports throughout the Caribbean. In this shot she was pretty close to loaded and getting ready to make way for some distant place....
Now that I look at this I suppose you could call this a study of angles?

I for one really don't appreciate someone telling me what I should be shooting!
Waiting at the station for the train to arrive and I came across this sign. It reminded me of the Kodak/Nikon Picture Spots at Disneyland so I had to grab a shot. Yeah, I was the one who took a picture of the sign instead of the scenic backdrop that the sign recommended.
By the way don't bother going to the URL on the sign, all you'll get is a nice 404 error. Maybe they got tired of people posting snapshots?
Since I don't use social media I'm not holding my breath waiting for my railway prize!
Like moths to a flame, the sun starved flocked to the pool deck!
The other guests onboard the Britannia had paid for sunshine and they were going to get every penny's worth of it while they could. Little did they know that there were storm clouds a couple of miles up the road (look at the upper right hand side) that was going to have them all running for cover!
This was a pretty typical scene, all the loungers filled with people in various states of dress and undress, all challenging the sun to try and make them look tan and beautiful. In most cases the color showed up but it usually started out as bright red, slowly fading to that crispy brown that you usually only see in fried chicken and supermodels. The beauty, as the old saying goes was in the eye of the beholder.
Having lived in the Northwest of the US for so long I can certainly understand these folks with their longing to shed their pasty whiteness and wanting to show up back home with a Coppertone tan that their friends could only achieve in a spray booth. The sun (and it's warmth) is an addictive drug when you live in a place that doesn't see a lot of either and once you've tasted it you'll certainly be back for more.

It has been a while since I took the group photo of my babies. With the new additions of M42-Vivitar 135/2.8 and M42-Carl zeiss Jena 135/3.5, decided to take shot at them. My wife saw all this effort and gave a different smile and said, "Are you selling them on ebay?, Good for you." I gave a wicked smile and continued taking the shot. Taken with Canon A520 P&S.
Large on black; Not much of a quality though!
Tried some individual shots below (Taken with macro takumar which will miss in the list)
I installed a "new" elementary lab last week. These two teacher computer are the best of the iMac lab and, believe it or not, are the best iMacs in the lab. The rest of the lab has DV400's and old try loaders. Even one Rev A, that had a four gig hard drive (naturally it had to be replaced in order to fit the entire image). The lab will be used to deliver primary software to students. It's amazing that these machines (some 7 years old) can run panther and all the software that we needed them to. There's something to be said about old technology and making it work on a limited budget. The principal was glowing.
Have you ever noticed that it's usually people that seem to get in your way?
When I took this shot I wasn't planning on getting these guys or the look, I was actually looking at Ma and Pa in the background. They looked like they had a story to tell and unfortunately these fellows decided to shot block me. Imagine that, a photographer getting in the way of a photographer!
Since you decided to stop and get in my way I sentence you to becoming Flickr Famous!

I got this 17'' iMac G4 for £29.00 on ebay at that price I just had to have it.
I've upgraded the ram to 1GB and I've also added a faster 80GB Hard drive. I did add a 120GB, but it refused to work in the iMac despite working fine in my Power Mac G4 tower.
I didn't plan on posting this shot, then I read the signs...
I took this shot purely as a marker of sorts so that when I got back home I'd remember the name of the lake when I posted shots. Truly off the cuff, focus and fire sort of thing.
Once I got home and started looking through pictures I came across it and realized that it had significant cultural and historical value and so I've posted it here for you.
If you should happen to go to Watson Lake and get sick or possibly die don't say you weren't warned more than once!
Der ewige Kreislauf der Natur... ein neues Jahr steht vor der Tür... ich danke meinen flickr friends für all die lieben Kommentare im Laufe des fast vergangenen Jahres und wünsche allen ein glückliches neues Jahr!
The circle of nature... a new year is knocking at the door... time to say thank you to all my dear flickr friends for all the kind comments during last year.
Wish you a wonderful and happy new year!!

It's good when you find that thing that makes you happy!
Being out to sea is really relaxing for us but Niccy decided to take that relaxation to the next level.
She had been working on a hand sewn quilt for several months prior to our trip and decided to bring it with for the long plane ride. She got quite a bit done on the plane and was able to get it finished sitting out on the back deck as we sailed along.
This was a good and bad thing actually. Good that she got it finished, bad because we came home with a suitcase half filled with new material that she picked up in the different ports!
Not the Full Boat that the poker players in the audience were looking for!
When we hit Grenada things were looking good on the weather front. It was a bit cloudy but the rain showers had passed by so hopefully we would have a dry day.
With any luck it was a great day for these folks who were headed out on a tour of some sort, but we definitely had different plans. We'd been here before and we knew where we wanted to go and what we wanted to do....

Being by the ocean always puts a smile on her face!
As we were walking to board the ship Niccy stopped for a moment and I fired off a quick shot. Being by the ocean always makes her happy, especially since she grew up on the beaches of Durban. I've always thought it was good for a person to get a little Vitamin Sea, and this is the result!
Niccy and I just got back from a 2 week cruise down in the Caribbean, a trip that was supposed to be in the UK but thanks to the whole covid fiasco that was not meant to be. We were on the P&O Britannia and as we quickly found out we were the only Americans aboard! We had a good time, got to see some new ports and enjoyed the weather.
