I told my husband not to take the snowmobile across the pond because it wasn't safe. He didn't listen and now has a little damage to the front of the machine from hitting a rock....yes, a rock of all things on the pond. I happened to have my camera out and captured a picture of him being naughty. LOL
P.S. The wife is always right! ;)

Biography: Lena Edwards had a tireless commitment to her profession as a physician and to her community. A daughter of Marie Coakley and Thomas W. Edwards, a dentist who taught at Howard University, and younger sister of another project interviewee, May Edwards Hill, she was born and educated in Washington, D.C. She attended Howard University, where she earned her B.A. and M.D. degrees. After an internship at Freedmen's Hospital, she became the first Black Woman to complete a residency in obstetrics at Margaret Hague Hospital in New Jersey. After many years of medical practice in New Jersey, at the same time that she was raising six children, in 1954 Dr. Edwards joined the faculty of Howard University where she taught obstetrics and gynecology. A devoted teacher, she sought to convey her ideas on the humanity of medicine and importance of treating the patient as an integral whole. She left Howard in 1960 to live and work for five years in a migrant labor camp in Hereford, Tex., where she established a maternity clinic and used her own savings to open a health clinic serving 5,000 laborers and their families. In recognition of her work, she was presented with the Presidential Freedom Award in 1964. A devout Catholic, Dr. Edwards was a pioneer in advocating natural childbirth and throughout her career has been instrumental in setting up programs for unwed mothers, for alcoholics, and for the poor and aged. She was a fellow of the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology and of the International College of Surgeons; other memberships included the American Medical Association, American Medical Women's Association, and Delta Sigma Theta. After retirement, she continued to be active in community medicine in New Jersey.

So as this year draws to a close and my project is completed for this year, I feel nostalgic for when I first started photography but I also love how much I've improved. I hope you've also enjoyed my journey through photography, seeing my failures, and my successes. My 52 week project folder for 2014 is now filled with 52 photos that best capture this year and I couldn't be more proud.
Thank you for sticking with me through this project and more importantly this year. I will be starting my 2015 52 week project so don't fret!
This loveseat was positioned to perfectly view the sunrise coming over the Salton Sea. The sunrises over the sea can be incredibly stunning. It's an eerie feeling to be hit by intense pinks and blues bouncing off the mountains and into the water as trailers very slowly decay next to you. It kind of makes it more perfect for me. In nature's reclamation, we must have decay. It defines beauty and rebirth. All those moments happen simultaneously here.

With winter over the Admiral has decided to commit himself to becoming a better painter. Will he succeed? The answer will be another word of #SiPgoes52.
(Posting my #sip_commitment a bit earlier than initially planned for #StarWarsDay)
Hello my Friends todays painting is called (Involuntary Commitment) A Involuntary commitment is the practice of using legal means or forms as part of a mental health law to commit a person to a mental hospital, insane asylum or psychiatric ward against their will and/or over their protests, Involuntary Commitment takes place when a person is ordered to be admitted to a hospital or treatment facility in order to prevent harm to that individual or others. The purpose of involuntary commitment is to help a person receive necessary and appropriate mental health and/or substance abuse treatment. In order to be hospitalized against an individual's wishes, the person must be mentally ill or under the influence of drugs or alcohol and dangerous to self or others. A person may act very strangely. displaying abnormal behavior but not be committable. An individual is considered dangerous to self if the person exhibits the following behaviors:
is unable to exercise self-control. judgment and discretion in conducting responsibilities of daily life without care/supervision. or
is unable to satisfy need for nourishment. personal care, medical care. shelter. protection and safety and there is a "reasonable probability" of serious physical debilitation unless adequate treatment is given, or
has attempted or threatened suicide and there is "reasonable probability" of suicide unless treatment is given. or
has mutilated or attempted to mutilate self and there is "reasonable probability" that the person will seriously mutilate self again unless treatment is given,steve

With work and life commitments debarring me from much for the next couple of weeks, this will probably be my last photo from the 2024 RHTT season.
Using my opportunity wisely and blessed with some glorious weather, I took a leisurely stroll through the Sussex countryside to Cooks Pond Viaduct, near Dormansland.
Here we see 69002 and 69005 crossing the aforementioned viaduct some 29L, working 3W90 0430 Tonbridge West Yard Gbrf to Tonbridge West Yard Gbrf.
The old saying "going out with a bang" almost applied quite literally here, my drone was already beginning its mandatory self descent due to low battery as the shutter clicked!

This was actually inspired by an album cover, but I also I wanted to do something a little lighter. I tried to shoot this the night before, but was interrupted by the police. :)

Some dear friends of mine. I really feel like this image celebrates love and the calm soft moments it fosters.

Another day, another candid encounter in Stockbridge. This gent cuts a determined figure: #WiredIn with over-ear headphones, square-jawed concentration, and a purposeful gait that says “don’t interrupt the mission.”
The hoodie signals team loyalty (St. Louis Blues, no less), while those low-slung camouflage cargo trousers suggest readiness for whatever the day — or night — might throw his way. Is he heading to the gym, the garage, or someone’s flat with takeaway and intent? We don’t know. But he’s carrying it all like a man with a plan.
And just to add fuel to the fantasy: those deep cargo pockets may be full, but the tote bag says sensitive multitasker with reusable values. Camouflage and contradictions — just how we like them.
La vida es pura circunstancia.No tengo ninguna duda de ello.
Enamorado quedo,Florencia.
Vuelvo en un rato. ;)

Desire is the key to motivation, but it's determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal - a commitment to excellence - that will enable you to attain the success you seek.
