I started selling some prints from a project I've been doing over the last few years called 'It's Grim Up North'...

 

You can buy them via my website, and also see more images from the project!

Taken sometime before 2010...

Testing out my flash for tonight and ended up with this that I really like and feel the brush pops out if the image.

 

This was not posed but grabbed at Sandra started to dry her hair.

When my mom died on Christmas day, just 3 months ago, after an 18 month battle with ovarian cancer it was hard to make the thousand mile drive with the family down to Alabama, knowing what I'd be facing. The loss of my mother.

 

As we drove for almost 17 hours, my mind flashed over the years of my childhood and my adult days of going "back home." And oddly enough, the one thing that was part of all of that was this pink comb that belonged to my mom.

 

We are not sure of its origin. Mom thought she got it from my dad's mom (her MIL)... Dad thinks they may have bought it when they first got married. No one is quite sure. But what I do know is that its older than I am. Its combed my hair thousands of times. I have vivid memories of sitting in the floor on Sunday nights after a bath, eating grilled cheese sandwiches in the living room floor (picnic!!!!). I would nibble, we'd watch Wild Kingdom and the Wide World of Disney (70s!!) as a family and my mother would comb out my long blond hair.

 

I asked Dad for the comb just a couple hours after we got down the day after Christmas... the day after mom died. And it came back to Pennsylvania with me. It now combs the hair of my family. Its had long service and shows signs of miscoloring and a couple broken and bent teeth. But its my treasure. Its my mom.

We enjoyed seeing the Comb-crested Jacana or Lotus birds walking on the Lotus and Salvinia leaves on the South Alligator River, Kakadu National Park.

 

The Comb-crested Jacana males build a nest, incubate the eggs and care for the young. The female may mate with a several males.

Description: Comb grave of J. H. Pew in Pugh Cemetery, Cumberland Co., Tenn.

 

Date: August 19, 2012

 

Creator: Dr. Richard Finch

 

Collection name: Richard C. Finch Folk Graves Digital Photograph Collection

 

Historical note: Comb graves are a type of covered grave that are often called "tent graves." The length of the grave was covered by rocks or other materials that look like the gabled roof or comb of a building. They were popular in the 19th and early 20th centuries. It is conjectured that these graves were covered to protect them from either weather or animals, or perhaps both. While comb graves can be found in other southern states, the Cumberland Plateau in Tennessee has the highest concentration of these types of graves.

Comb over on a good old orangutan.

Have a lovely day. .

Mid December on Combs Lane...

Cockscomb flowers are also known as Wool Flowers or Brain Celosia, suggestive of a highly colored brain. The flowers belong to the amaranth family, Amaranthaceae. Cockscomb blooms with a compacted crested head 2-5 inches across, on leafy stems that are 12-28 inches long. The flower's name is suggestive of a rooster's comb. The Cockscomb flower blooms from late summer through late fall. The Celosia plant is an annual dicotyledon.

The Ohio Valley Summer Theater ( ovst.org/ ) is performing The Sapphire Comb at Arts West in Athens, Dec. 9 - 11, and we were lucky enough to get a quick preview yesterday afternoon. Great acting, action and really wonderful colors...all the funner to photograph!

My mum bought this comb in the late 1970s and I discovered it in her house several years ago, still sealed and in the bag with receipt. 19 New Pennys paid to Boots of Nottingham.

A Comb-footed spider I found in my garden

 

This is potentially one of the dangerous spider species in South Africa, but yet is is one of the most beautiful spiders I have seen in quite a while. Though not as impressive as a big tarantula or baboon spider, and not as extravagant as a kite spider it is still one of the most beautiful spiders that I have seen.

 

The blue legs is most probably due to a recent molt.

  

Couldn't resist a bit photoshoppery on this wet Sunday afternoon - a nice piece of wild comb cut out from the background with some 'bevel and emboss' blending...
