In the old days, weekends were reserved for meals out, long drives, and fun. Fortunately, I can alter that expectation to go with an NCIS marathon, reading on the couch, and fun with pictures.
Hope you're having fun!

This young ram was licking the salt along the roadside at Blue Mesa Lake earlier this week. He looks to be about 3 years old and if his dad was the ram that I hope it was, this young man has the chances of being a car stopper. In the meantime I hope he stays out of the road and safe.
We saw plenty of Rocky Mountain Bighorns on this day, but this young man was the only one that really cooperated for a portrait!
Hope you enjoy this shot and Happy New Year to all of my great friends on Flickr!

So this is the end of the umbrella week. Did you like it? I will go shooting again on sunday and maybe this will lead to another series of whatever next week.
Lets see but say goodbye to the umbrella first. Maybe it'll come back.
For many information and a look behind the scenes of my photography visit
I can't remember exactly the sequence of events but with some distance between the two parties, Bruce approached me. Looking back, I could see there were signs from when we first discussed his ill fitting shoes in Wanaka but at this stage in the journey I did not expect it.
We continued a short distance to where Ion and Conor were standing and Bruce spoke up. He wanted to turn back. It was taking me some time to process the information. What this meant for the rest of us was still undecided. Bruce was happy to have come this far and I must admit the view even from this point was pretty amazing with the cloud filled valleys, mountain peaks all around us and the sunrise colours filling the sky. If it ended here it was still pretty amazing.
Bruce had had a big year leading up to this for various reasons and as a result felt that he wasn't fit enough or in the right head space to attack the next stage and wanted to give us the best possible chance to summit. He wanted to bring it up here before we started ascending the ramp and became that extra level committed.
A discussion ensued between the four of us and while I was't entirely happy with the situation I had to support the decision. Going up further on the mountain with thoughts of turning back was not a good place to be. The problem was that if he turned back he still had a long distance back to the hut navigating numerous crevasses...and they were only the ones we could see. The only positive for the walk back was that our tracks from the hike up were still visible.
I felt torn. The walk back alone for Bruce was not ideal and I resigned myself to going back with him for safety reasons. This would mean Ion and Conor could continue their ascent. But Bruce didn't want that. From further conversation I could see that he didn't want this to bring an end to my attempt at the summit. But his safety was still my concern.
In this stunning place on the edge of a mountain in the middle of this vast and inspiring panorama decisions were made.
Whenever Poeka comes in, she is chased by a very enthusiastic Billy. The fact that she runs from him and hisses and growls at him hardly impresses him. With Pip he behaves a lot quieter. Here he is sitting on the doormat looking up at Poeka who has sought refuge on the window sill where Billy can't reach her ...... yet.

Fishermen pulling up the day's catch on the narrow strip of land between the Neyyar river and the sea in Poovar, Trivandrum. This picture was shot from the mainland across the river using a zoom.
(Dedicating this one to Adri, who appeared in my real life a short while before this was taken. I'm so excited to get to know you! Hope camera-things are looking up today, girl)
Cropped, but otherwise SOOC.
This is a repost from earlier hoping I have fixed an extreme dark right side.
Just got back from a dive trip to Cayman Brac. An island 90 miles off of the coast of Grand Cayman. It is an island 12 miles long and 1 1/2 miles wide. I kept waiting for some clouds on a sunrise that I could get some color on. Usually there were no clouds what so ever, just a cloudless sky. This peticular morning I thought was going to be it, so I packed up and went down with expectations. When the clouds developed with no color I was bummed. But then shortly after I was pleasantly surprised to see the sun just start to peek through the clouds to left of the shot and light up this lone cloud. In a way it was typical of the whole trip. On this trip the diving was less than spectacular and a lot a personal despair that happened as the trip unfolded. With the lone bright spot, being there with some good friends.
While driving today I saw a man and a little girl with a kite. It appeared he was trying to teach her to fly it. I could see look of frustration on both their faces, then he grabbed the string and pushed it in her hand, it was not a gentle push- it was clear he was loosing his patience, as was the child. It made me think of all the times we set out with good intentions. Setting up a moment in our minds, like going to fly a kite or go fishing, whatever it may be. And then there are those times when are expectations fall through and the moment is just not what we dreamed. I imagined that the man had such good intentions and just maybe the wind was not strong enough to take the kite. Or maybe my perceptions were all wrong.
Tried to make it look as close to Keanu Reeves as possible. Fully painted by me. John Wick was an amazing movie and I hope chapter 2 can live up to the expectations! Enjoy!
Towards the end of her days in this existence, Sarah became the focus for snide remarks and jokes from the townspeople. She always seemed to be waiting for something - as if she would be rescued. When Charles died, she received significant support from the locals. But that pity and concern developed into a disdain for the recalcitrant waif-like Sarah. And that only drove her deeper into depression and withdrawal.

You know it's going to be a hot day when you leave because it's getting too warm after taking pictures for an hour and it's just 7 am
Hazel and I had a wonderful time today. She is such a great squirrel and humble photo model ♥♥♥ (Squirrels-2019-8230.jpg)

I'm not sure about this, the title is kind of funny... AND I'm so sick of my face haha but whatevs, whatevs.
In other news, I am leaving the city this wednesday for a school social work. Also, I'm having a BIG exam this monday. I'm kind of nervous and excited... but mostly nervous. I'm crossing fingers, seriously.
I wish you all a great weekend!
