We took some refreshments and warmth in a local pub from a roaring log fire whilst waiting for the sunset.
It was very hard to leave and walk up to the top of cold hill and wait for the sun to finally set. Well worth it in the end though.

2005年9月19日，在伊拉克南部城市巴士拉，一名身上着火的英军士兵试图跳下熊熊燃烧的坦克。当天，2名驻伊拉克英军士兵在巴士拉向伊警察开枪射击而被伊当局羁押后，2辆英军坦克立即前往这2名士兵所在的警察局，并遭到伊拉克民众的抗议。伊民众用汽油炸弹和石块向英军坦克投掷，造成2辆坦克起火。据悉，有2名伊拉克人在冲突中丧生。
At Kparatao, near Sokode, we attended the fire dance. Tradition tells how the Kotokoli tribe was always feuding with the Tamerma tribe and often women and children were in the huts by the fire when fighting broke out. Not being able to escape quickly, they regularly ended up getting burned. The tribe therefore made a pact with the god of fire – thus the fire dance was born to show their respect and gratification to the god. Not all members of the tribe are able to participate in the dance, which induces a form of trance, only a selected few.
Wanton! Murder! Mayhem! Arson!

January 16, day 16 - Yesterday I was playing with ice & snow; today I was playing with fire, and with mirrors. This is one of the results of my experiments this evening (I didn't get burned!). My favorite pics were the ones where I focused on the reflection.
Many structures in Thousand Oaks unfortunately burned to the ground. The fire moved so fast the fire departments had a hard time staying in front of the fire.
Earth Hour 2009.
I did.
What about you?
Soo... 28th was a cool day.
We went on the market and we bought bread, sausage, corn, pea and Kuat and ate hot dog \o/
hahahaha
the coolest part is that we did everything at the candle light.
Then i took this picture. I think my parents don't like too much of the ideia i'm being a photographer, 'cause when i caught the camera they looked me like '¬¬, why does she need to shoot every single thing?'
anyway, i really shoot every thing, and i don't even mind.
good afternoon to you.

People who have really "lived" have fascinating stories to tell. Some are fascinating just because they took place in such a different time than we live in (back when people walked barefoot through the snow, uphill both ways, to get to school). Others are remarkable because of the people they involve. You know, those stories about someone they knew or befriended as children who eventually became someone famous, maybe an important political figure or famous athlete. Many of their stories are of interest because they took place before so much of our culture became so sissified…back when kids were allowed to climb trees without signing waivers and lawyers weren't hanging around everywhere like vultures.
"Bearpa" is shown above telling stories to my wife and a couple of the kids by the fire one evening. We recently spent a (cold) weekend camping on their ranch while we hunted for deer. Between hunts and during meals Bearpa shared many stories of interest to all. He's a wise man and imparted much of his wisdom and knowledge -- about hunting and life in general -- to all of us.
I only had the camera out here and there (was busy hunting and skinning myself) but when I did it was usually in very low light. I used 1600 ISO most of the time yet some shots were still very challenging. If I left the camera in "normal" metering mode it overexposed much of the image since so much of the background was dark. So, I switched to partial metering (which on the Canon 50D is essentially spot metering using 9% of the center of the frame) and this allowed me to expose based on the brightest portion of the frame and keep it from being blown out. I also used an exposure bias of -1/2 all the way to -3/2. Notice how the picture of Bearpa beginning to skin a deer has deep black shadows in the background and how he himself is just a tad underexposed. This captures the scene perfectly in my opinion. This was taken out in a barn late at night, and the slightly underexposed picture reflects this. I cleaned up the night shots with Noiseware, which works magnificently.
Due to my back pain (this was pre-surgery) I was limited on how much I could twist, turn, and get into good positions but I did manage a few other shots. The trophy wall below is an HDR from 6 exposures and the one from in the blind was taken with my iPhone.
