Mountain Town Station finally upgraded their sign on Broadway following the addition of the new Camille's. This one attempts to reflect the rustic decor of the restaurant itself.

I finally managed to drag myself out on Saturday, despite a broken toe, and spent an hour with the birds before the strain on my foot became too uncomfortable. More healing time needed I guess...

 

Last year someone asked me why I had to photograph dragonflies when there were so many photos available online and in print? Obviously not a photographer! I do get the same way with Blue Tits, and no matter how hard I resist I can't help it if it results in a satisfying image.

 

I tried something different this time and concentrated on the trees rather than the feeding posts, becasue the last thing I wanted was another Blue Tit feeding on a post! Much better to get them jusat before they descend from the nearest tree....

As the year end approaches ... the expectations of mangement increases many folds ...

1. They want us to wake up early and come to office (which I can only do for photography :D)

2. They want us to give double the output ....

 

BUT BUT BUT, they just forget its completely out of scope :D

sadness and expectations

expectations hurt

Frederick Perls :

"I do my thing and you do yours. I am not in this world to live up to your expectations, and you are not in this world to live up to mine. You are you and I am I, and if by chance we find each other, then it is beautiful. If not, it can't be helped."

What better picture could I offer than this front page from today's Toronto Star. Sums it up pretty well for all our athletes.

St James, Cooling, Kent

 

The opening scene of Charles Dickens' Great Expectations, when Pip meets the convict Abel Magwitch, takes place in Cooling churchyard. A group of children's anthropomorphic gravestones beside the south porch provided Dickens with the inspiration for Pip's poor dead brothers in the novel. In fact, they are to members of the wealthy Comport family, some of whom lived at Cooling Castle, today home of the television personality Jools Holland.

 

As I never saw my father or my mother, and never saw any likeness of either of them (for their days were long before the days of photographs), my first fancies regarding what they were like, were unreasonably derived from their tombstones. The shape of the letters on my father's, gave me an odd idea that he was a square, stout, dark man, with curly black hair. From the character and turn of the inscription, "Also Georgiana Wife of the Above," I drew a childish conclusion that my mother was freckled and sickly. To five little stone lozenges, each about a foot and a half long, which were arranged in a neat row beside their grave, and were sacred to the memory of five little brothers of mine - who gave up trying to get a living, exceedingly early in that universal struggle - I am indebted for a belief I religiously entertained that they had all been born on their backs with their hands in their trousers-pockets, and had never taken them out in this state of existence."

Champcar race in Nazareth, PA April 2000, which was rescheduled due to snow...

[11/52] I am sad to announce that Pokey and Gumby are missing and therefore unable to participate in Plastic 52 at this time. T-Rex has graciously agreed to stand in for them. I don't want to seem suspicious, but ...

 

T-Rex denies any involvement with the disappearance of Pokey and Gumby and it turns out she was telling the truth. They are back home safe and sound. I guess T-Rex is just an old softy at heart.
