It can get a bit claustrophobic at times in Venice...
From our 2012 Italy vacation. Back home safe and sound.
Nice start in the day.

This photo was taken as a response to a challenge from Blanusha in the rolling challenge thread of the Get Pushed group
Her challenge was this one:
I encourage you to create a work of art void of any sharpness in your picture. Out of focus shots are easy to achieve, but more challenging when you are actually trying to accomplish them with the result being a pleasing work of art! The only limitation is that this picture has to be taken in natural, outside light. Have fun with this challenge.
I must say that It was not my first idea but the first one didn't give me the result I was looking for.
Hope you will appreciate.
11.2011. Hello to all the fans of my curvy figure. It's good to know us girls over 30 and over 150lbs can still turn some heads. I appreciate your appreciation. Since I am an amateur photographer, I do not charge a fee for use of my photos and hold a creative commons license so that someone who wants one of my photos is not limited by a fee or licensing. That being said, this curvy girl loves her pets and has a dog in trouble and not a budget to give him the help he needs. I have set up a ChipIn page to collect donations for my Corgi Sampson's $2,000+ surgery to fix a perineal hernia. Please click on the link below to read our anifamily's story and make donations via paypal. Any donation is greatly appreciated, but if you favorite, save or display my photos on your computer or website, I would like to ask that you donate $1 per photo. Sampson and his Corgi buddies Shiloh & Rusty, as well as their human family thank you!

Shot it at Gajan Fair.Gajan a Shaivite folk festival, held on CHAITRA SANGKRANTI (the last day of Chaitra..according to eng calendar ,its in middle of april) and on full moon nights up to the full moon of Asadh. The festival is associated with various gods. There may thus be SHIVA's Gajan, the Gajan of DHARMA THAKUR, the Gajan of Nil etc. But the main object of this festival is to celebrate the marriage of the sun and the earth. The reason for this festival is perhaps to appease the sun and pray for rain during the hot, dry month of Chaitra.
The festival is arranged on the premises of Shiva temples. Those who take part in the festival after making vows are called sannyasi or bhaktya. They take sacrificial food and wear uturi (wrappers). Each one holds a staff. They try to satisfy the god through different acts of penance, such as piercing their tongues with nails, jumping upon thorns, walking on burning charcoal, etc. CHADAK PUJA is performed on the occasion of the Gajan festival. During this festival, processions are brought out from the premises of the temple of Shiva and taken to other villages. A pair of processionists take the roles of Shiva and Gauri and render dances. Other bhaktyas take the roles of Nandi, Bhrngi, ghosts and spirits, monsters and demons and dance along with Shiva and Gauri. During this time different verses are recited narrating the story of how Shiva's sleep was disturbed and going on to his marriage, his agricultural activities etc. This festival usually lasts for three days. During the gajan on Chaitra Samkranti, Kali dances are also performed in some places describing how the goddess slaughtered the monster Asura.

On a walk part way around the Travis Wetland Nature Heritage Park April 7, 2014 Christchurch New Zealand.
Travis Wetland Nature Heritage Park is a lowland freshwater wetland, located in the midst of an urban environment. It offers a number of easy walkways and viewing areas, with opportunities to see many bird species and plant communities. The walking tracks are suitable for pushchairs and wheelchairs and there are a number of opportunities to take a rest on seats along the way.
There is an information kiosk and the nearby education centre provides a laboratory, educational facility and meeting space for groups. Travis Wetland is a site where education programmes are available for schools through the Learning Through Action programme to promote ecological values.
The Travis Wetland covers 116 hectares of recently retired land surrounded by urban subdivision, and was purchased by the Christchurch City Council in 1996 in response to public demand. Previously farmed and drained, the area is now being managed as a Nature Heritage Park.
Fifty-five species of birds, including 35 natives, have been recorded at the wetland. Travis is the most important freshwater wetland for birds in Christchurch, supporting about half the total Christchurch pukeko population. An indigenous skink, the native short-fined eel and possibly the Canterbury mudfish are present in the wetland. Travis also supports healthy populations of a diverse variety of insects. As the diversity of habitat develops, additional species are expected to occur.
Nearly 80 per cent of pre-European native wetland plant species are present in the wetland, including a number of species now rare on the Canterbury Plains. These include the only substantial stand of manuka, a species of spider orchid and a native sundew, which are regionally vulnerable.
Invasive weeds reduce the native plant diversity. Volunteers and contractors are eliminating species such as female grey willow, blackberry, gorse and grass from botanically sensitive areas.

Not just getting to Rotterdam, but getting there when it comes to constructing a whole new train station! After three years of building, a few new platforms and part of the roof are finished. A great place to have some fun with a fisheye lens! But I can't wait to see it actually finished in 2013 :-)
Introducing, my unoa (on minifee body). She's finally complete. :D She just came back from getting her faceup (by Angel Toast) today! She's named la roux, after the singer.
- Explored!
I've been so under the gun to get this bike done in time for Classic Rendezvous Weekend that I've totally dropped the ball with taking and posting pictures. I'm finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel so I figured I'd catch up a little
We rode the Rhätische Bahn on the Bernina Express from Chur to Samedan. I took this photo out the open window as the train crossed a stone trestle toward one of the many tunnels on this route.
In 2008, UNESCO named the Rhätische Bahn and a section of this route a World Heritage Site. You can read more about it here .
