I have a few favorite things in Green-Wood Cemetery that I revisit from time to time.
“I have a very old and very faithful attachment for dogs. I like them because they always forgive.”

I am a Jew because, knowing the story of my people, I hear their call to write the next chapter. I did not come from nowhere; I have a past, and if any past commands anyone, this past commands me. I am a Jew because only if I remain a Jew will the story of a hundred generations live on in me. I continue their journey because, having come this far, I may not let it and them fail. I cannot be the missing letter in the scroll. I can give no simpler answer, nor do I know of a more powerful one.

and Exploring the Legacy

Etta has a special attachment to her Uncle Kahn; even his feet can make a good pillow for her :)

There is never a dull moment in our backyard! At lunchtime today (Tuesday) much to the consternation of a number of Galahs that were hanging around on the powerlines out back, Mummy Possum as we call her (she who never sleeps) came by for some fresh leaves. The broadband cable is her superhighway at the moment which takes her through the Pink Trumpet tree on the right where she spent some time devouring the youngest leaves like delicately picking new Tea Leaves.
The Galahs spent a considerable time screeching at her which she ignored completely before she continued her high wire act heading for our neighbour's lush tree with variegated leaves which she loves. Unfortunately, this may mean she returns to her home in the middle of the Galah's afternoon feed which will ensure total pandemonium.
Note that she has picked up some sort of small branch on her journey which didn't fall off despite climbing through that tree.

When I bought my camera (I bought a camera kit with a lens, multiple lens attachments, a bag, tripods, SD cards, & much more..
It was a great deal! There were SO MANY choices with the KITS .. I didn't even know which one I wanted to get.. So it took me SO LONG to make a decision. But the one day I decided that if I didn't buy it at that moment, I was going to procrastinate much longer.. *trying to make the right choice* .. So I just clicked and bought one of my tip picks.. And clicked BUY. And didn't go back to look at more kit packages, because (like always) I'd be like, "I wish I would have gotten that one.." *So yes, I haven't checked them since that day! LOL *
Anyhoo, I haven't really went thru all of the items.. And I totally forgot about my wide-angle / macro lens attachment-lens (two in one) ... And when I was looking for my tripod I seen it.. in the box. I put it on my camera.. and had so much fun outdoors! This is one of the photos I took by my back door, of an ivy leaf. I love the way it came out!

So I didn't get to do a MACRO MONDAY photo for today.. I never got a chance to take one, unfortunately~!
I am doing so many challenges, but the few that I am 100% dedicated to at the moment.. I'm focusing on them - defiantly.
So my 100x (that isn't an issue, I have those images FOR DAYS lol). Easiest challenge, for me.
My 52 week, I have to post "something I've never photographed before".
.. that I have to do this week!
*shouldn't be hard. I have a few ideas!
- My 52Frames (Color Relationships) I'm going to make sure I get that photo..
- & Flickr Friday "Arches".. I already took that photo, Thank goodness!!

I'm not sure if you all have noticed or read my recent captions on my photos about "disabling comments"..
Since I've been VERY BUSY in my personal life-but also trying to continue to be an active contributor to my challenges...I will be disabling comments every so often..
SOOO, when I do.. Please feel free to "favorite" my photos, ((leave comment notes on the pictures, I LOVE THAT)) or you can also leave comments on my other recent photos if you wish, commenting on my photos with disabled comments!
◼◻ >>> My reason for doing this..
I am busy... but also participating and posting many photos for these challenges.. When I post a photo, I always take my time and make sure to RETURN ALL OF YOUR COMMENTS (which takes me usually 3 hours straight).. per photo.
So I'm sure you can all understand that this IS NOT EASY FOR ME when I'm strapped for time!
...So I'm sure you all understand..
And THANK YOU for all of your amazing comments, They mean a lot! & Your support helps me continue to try new challenges, push myself & learn more about photography... And I'm grateful for you all!
I am leaving for work in a little bit.. So right now I'm going to ATTEMPT to return your comments now, (approx 3+ hours of commenting).. so if I do not return all of the comments, I will finish hopefully after work.. or tomorrow morning!
Again, thank you all.. I APPRECIATE YOU!!

BTW: THERE IS THIS GREAT GROUP THAT I'VE BEEN A MEMBER OF SINCE 10+ YEARS AGO (ON MY OLD ACCOUNT).. One of the best groups EVER.. GREATEST IDEA.. but since 10+ years ago, the group has kind of died down.. but is still mildly active.. Andrewrosspoetry and myself are basically keeping it alive.. and he asked me to invite people.. (I wish every time I go there that someone would post so I could post again.) So he told me to invite people.. (some of you I have, some of you I will soon) but I wanted to post this in case I forget to invite you.. The idea of the group IS.. You post a photo. and comment on the person before you's PHOTOSTREAM.. You go thru-out their stream ALL OVER (new pics.. old pics) and leave multiple comments...
...At the moment we are trying to BRING THE GROUP BACK TO LIFE!! So, until then.. you only have to wait until ONE other person posts a photo.. before posting again! Make sure to comment on their stream.. as they will yours.. THAT'S ALL!
Lets bring back my favorite group!

Attachment Object One, Two and Three are a group of images based on rusted metal industrial relics found while digging in the garden, rather beautiful in their simplicity of form and function. They are the cast-offs of previous inhabitants, much like artifacts unearthed during an archaeological excavation. These particular objects were large, sharp nails or tools used to join one material to another. The title of this series is also a metaphor for our infatuation with things, our addiction to outcomes, and the detritus we may unwittingly leave behind.
Exerpt from pixoftoronto.com:
On Bathurst street just south of Dundas on the East side is Alexandra Park. And on the Southwest corner of the park there is an arresting mural with full dramatic scenes and characters. This mural was done in 2014 by Elicser and Other [Troy Lovegates] by city commission. Walking South on Bathurst or through the park it is hard to ignore the lure of this mural.
The mural captures your attention for its sheer size [covering the brick wall of a 3 story building], its almost gaudy colors but most of all for the various objects and characters found in it. Having been to the Mexican muralists works at Dartmouth College by Jose Orozco and Detroit Institute of Art by Diego Rivera one can find similar strong story-telling elements in the Alexandra Park mural.
What captures this viewer’s attention is the personality of the characters illustrated by color glow, juxtaposition, gazing angles and intimation of attachments. A favorite adornment is the speech bubble of at least 2 dozen object and stories.
