My first attempts with a macro lense. I liked how the compostion worked out which makes it even more annoying that the beetle's eye is not in focus :-).
Princessa and Daddykins are back with another team banger <3 , showcasing our undying, everlasting, magical love. There is not a single person or thing in existence that I love more than my Princessa. Her beautiful intricate mind, her stunning and overwhelming beauty, her consistently original and never-ending creativity, her wonderful heart in which she overflows me with love, she's the literal complete package deal and the best thing that has ever happened to me. There's something special about falling in love with your best friend. You know that person is going to have your back through thick and thin, high waters, and the hardest times. We fell in love before we became an official couple and we cared for each other before our first "I Love You's." There's nothing in this entire world I wouldn't do for her and without her, there is no world for me. I'm proud to call her my happy ever after, the mother of our future kids, the person I want to build a future with, the lovely woman that will never leave my side. Thank you for holding me down, my love. I don't deserve you, but I thank God for blessing me with his most trusted, beautiful angel to walk by my side through life. You are my equal in everything and my number one in all things. I love you, gorgeous. Thank you so much for being you.

South Maitland Railways 10 class locomotive Number 18 is doing the lions share of the work as it leads 5917 over the top of Caledonia Bank on the South Maitland Railway.
"state that one refuses to admit the truth or existence of."
We deny things. It's in our nature to do it. We deny things we are afraid of, we deny things we don't like.
Fear is an important emotion.
Makes us grow, makes us be who we really are if we are able to conquer it.
So don't deny things.
Face them.

I went to summit Mt. Si with my hiking buddies Ryan and Travis after work today. It was an ass kicker! It was 3,900 ft at its highest point. The elevation gain from the trail head was 3,150 ft over 4 miles. That's pretty steep in my book.
There were a couple of setbacks on our trip to the top. I almost fainted 15 minutes into the hike. :D I'm not sure what it was, but it wasn't fun.
We had to hurry up to the top to catch sunset which was our main goal, and we got there just in time. We roughly had 5 minutes before the sun dipped into the horizon.
We waited until the end of the nautical twilight, around 9:20ish at night to hike down. It was so much easier and took us half the time.

Day 52 - 365
We had a fabulous, FABULOUS holiday in Scotland, and I normally don't put up a photo from a particular shoot unless I have processed them all.
We have been back a fortnight and I am still ploughing through them as I took over 5000 shots!!
Scotland's decision to say no to independence was the excuse I needed to start posting.
The inscription on the front of this Royal Marine Commando statue is "UNITED WE CONQUER" and I would have put up a front facing photo, but this particular one is my fave.
I thought United We Conquer was very apt for Scotland's historical decision.
The Royal Marine Commando's were formed late in WWII and the chaps that were chosen for this unit were literally dropped into the Ben Nevis Range (where the UK's highest mountain is)to start their intensive training.
The statues actually face the point where they were dropped off and I believe the Royal Marines still use this area for training.
We were here on a Summer's day and as you can see it looks very menacing.
I have been all over the World, but the weather in the Highlands of Scotland changes faster than anything I have seen.
As well as the statues there is a memorial garden for those that have served with this unit. It made me cry seeing all the youngsters that have fallen.
Anyway, I am back and with some gorgeous shots to be posted of the Highlands.
This is a Black & White conversion of a previously posted shot, specifically this one:
This is an Edinburgh Fringe photo from 2006. It features two of the incredibly talented performers from an Italian group called Kataklo (composed of former Olympic gymnasts).
I was fortunate enough to be invited along to photograph the show by Angella Kwon, the show's producer. This was taken at 3200 ISO with a shutter speed of 1/20 second (hand held...but with image stabilisation). The Canon EOS-5D is a very impressive camera.
If you like this, you may be interested in the rest of my Kataklo set.

Thanks a lot for watching and leaving a fave ★
All the colours that we saw they touched us
all the trails that they made we followed
we can be just like all of the others
we have to be just like all of the others
All the spaces they made for us
are all filled up
and they will deceive us and they will desert us
but all our colours will always be with us
and all our colours they will always be with us
All our colours will always be with us
Conquer your fears
Fears once towering, now subdued,
Turned from foes to allies true.
With every step, we rise and learn,
For in their flames, we cease to burn.
They guide us through each unknown night,
Shedding doubt to spark our light.
What once was dread, now wisdom clear,
We conquer all when we face our fear.

Today's shot takes us to Disney's Animal Kingdom For a shot of Expedition Everest. I've seen this shot done a few times, so I decided to try it myself. It's amazing what you can see from up there. In the distance you have the Disney Studios, Epcot, The Swan and Dolphin and the Contemporary. Have you ever taken any photos from the top of Everest? Have a magical day!
I got extra ambitious and shot two images yesterday while out exploring with my camera. I am always telling myself that I want to start practicing shooting multiple images during a shoot. If not two seperate pieces, at least a sister image to accompany the main concept.
This is my favorite concept that I shot yesterday. I have been wanting to use this abandoned barn structure as a back drop for quite some time. The most 'entertaining' part of the shoot was watching a car that was leaving the parking lot pull over near where were shooting and, presumably, watching what I was doing. People do the strangest things around photogs.
I hope everyone has had a very creative weekend. xx

Looking north along the Tamiami Trail (Route 41) into Charlotte County. Beyond the Prairie land. In the distance, on the left is the great Charlotte County Landfill. It has been know to create small dust storms and a smell worse than death. It is home to vast quantities of buzzards. To the right of the highway and beyond the prairie is a surface mining operation which digs vast areas for the ultimate goal of creating concrete. Leaving behind holes that eventually fill with water, an odd colored water rich in nutrients and not the good kind.
