Friendly's Restaurant Ice Cream Shop. Spring 5/2014 Berlin CT. Pics by Mike Mozart of TheToyChannel and JeepersMedia on YouTube.
This fellow landed on my out-stretched hand hoping for food (I only tease them), a behaviour commonly trained in Edmonton Chickadees.
This is the first White-breasted Nuthatch I've seen go for the offer. It even stayed put for about 10 seconds, Chickadees evacuate immediately if there is no food.
This is Brent. Such a funny story. I am sure I cannot do it justice. (no pun intended) So, my friends and I were driving, got lost and instead of going over the Grapevine again, we decided to pull into a weigh station. This is for eighteen wheelers, mind you but hey, we were in a Land Rover. So, out comes Brent...we knew we had made all the CHP peeps laugh. All four of us started talking at once. We asked him to escort us over the freeway (illegally, of course). He asked us where we were going, a little concerned about us. We were on our way to a branding party and we, of course, invited him along. So, during all the chaos, I got the idea to take his picture. He said yes but I didn't get to tell him about the project. I recently made up little sheets of paper to explain the project and also, in case they wanted to check out their picture. So, as we zoomed off, screaming out the window, I tossed the little paper out the window for him, never thinking of what it might look like to him. A few days later, I get a facebook message from him. Oh my. Pretty darn funny. He was darling and made our day, that's for sure, but I now know better than to toss a piece of paper out the window to a guy! Brent is # 20 in my 100 Strangers Project.

We stopped to have a chat with this beautiful old dear. Couldn't make out a word of what she said but she seemed to like the idea of me wanting to take her photo.
This is part of the Goroka Show
2009, where groups from many parts of Papua New Guinea come to celebrate
and display their unique cultural songs, dances, and customary dress.

I took this picture back in 1994 in sea life Park Hawaii (I studied Marine Science there). I observed the whale - or rather Dolphin - for about 2 hours, and it seemed as if it tried to make contact. Somehow. Look at the eye... doesn't it look, well, INTELLIGENT? And very friendly, too. The image is also on the Wikipedia page for the small or "false" Killer Whale "Pseudorca Crassidens".
Camera was an (obviously) analog CANON EOS 5 with a Tamron 28-200.
George Young, from the Grappone Collision Center volunteered for a day at the Friendly Kitchen painting the walls a beautiful yellow and helped with minor carpentry. Looks Great!
Este mural representa muchas cosas para mi.
desde el proceso evolutivo de la creación, la perfección de la técnica, la realización total...
empezó hace dos años, un dia cuasi-feriado, el dia del censo de 2010. y desde ese día que estoy ansiosa de verlo terminado!
Ya venía esperando el momento como para arrancarlo, y empece por la mañana muy temprano, y casi sin saber nada al respecto,sin bocetos, ni diseños, nada.
Solo sabia que iba a ser un éxito.
Las primeras tapitas de gaseosa me las juntó mamá, que se las fué pidiendo a los chicos del colegio, ellos creían que eran para el Garraham, no es que alguien se lo haya dicho, pero ellos intuían eso.. . ¿Para qué iban a servir sino?
Pasaron dos años desde aquel día del inicio, estuvo abandonado, casi pensé que iba a quedar como algo trunco.. . hasta que este Febrero, decidí retomarlo.
Tenia miles de tapitas, en su mayoría rojas, y de muchas marcas, de diferentes épocas, incluso con promociones!
Asi, por fin, el motor se puso en marcha de nuevo, y la magia empezó a surgir.
Lo cierto es que hubo mucha experimentación, y eso también me hizo dar cuenta de cosas: del aprendizaje de la vida, de la perseverancia, de la dedicación, de los frutos del trabajo, y de la satisfacción de la creación.
Ahora, hoy, siento que muchas cosas son posibles.
Me queda super claro, que todo es un proceso, que esta bien andar sin un mapa, pero que también es bueno conocer el camino, o darle una mirada previa como para no andar esquivando pozos... (todo esto en un plano simbolico...)
Por lo pronto, ahora me siento a verlo, y recuerdo cada día que estuve pegando tapitas, poniendo pastina, limpiando, etc etc etc..
Agradezco las donaciones de tapitas de los chicos del colegio, de Daniela, de Nadia, de Jona, de Eliana, de Cinti y Lau, de la abuela, de Natalia, de Matias!
Y también el aporte de Flor, y su Nubetora Magica, y la de Mamá con el triangulito de abajo a la derecha!
Fue de gran importancia la ayuda técnica del máster de la llana ! Gracias !
A Papá agradezco su confianza en mi.
Amor para todos !
Hoy, brindo y festejo en honor al ARTE.
Salud!
The southern right Whales in Peninsula Valdes in October come there to breed and are playful, friendly and very active. In Patagonia.They are very curious and come right up to the boat.It was extremely exciting seeing them this close from an inflatable.They would swim straight towards us and then right under the boat at the minute. Or pop their heads up to spy on us.
On the field there was a friendly giant, a "belgische knol", which is a horse breeded to forfill heavy labour.very powerfull but friendly.
