After an oddly difficult climb up the snow covered embankment, and multiple falls, I raised my freezing red hands and clicked the shutter. Worth it.

Dedicated to Jono, who loves cycling and probably can identify with this!!

Hands of time move us forward, never back. Only memories frozen in mind, can we re-enact.- ROBERT M. HENSEL
Here are the hands of my father in law who turns 94 on Monday and my mother in law who just turned 90 and had a series of strokes just after Thanksgiving. Now she is in a wonderful care home and he drives 25 miles one way and 25 miles back home every day to sit and visit. They just celebrated their 70th anniversary last June.
For the Macro Mondays challenge: keychains.
My sister made this for me. I don't use it much as it is pretty fragile for my usual lifestyle but I really like it to look at if not to use. Happy Macro Monday

Bearded reedling female
Who needs arms and hands when you have legs like theirs. Bearded reedlings can just about reach anything at any angle with their ambidexterous legs
Help please.
I am working on this idea, it is a raw file, how do I isolate the shine on the hand and tone it down?
Thanks

Just found the reason for those slabs on either side of the river:
The Mountain Quarry Cement Bridge, later known as "No Hands Bridge," was completed on March 23, 1912, by 600 men working on the Placer County side and 200 more on the E1 Dorado side to the tune of $300,000. At the time of its construction the bridge was the longest concrete arch bridge in the world. The building of this structure proved that concrete was practical for building long bridges. Although it was plagued by various problems during construction , the span was considered a great piece of railroad bridge engineering.
The old cement bridge stands today as a proud monument to early-day engineering and the men who built it. The bridge has withstood the tugging of the American River currents for over 80 years and stayed on its footings when the Hell Hole Dam broke in December 1964 and took out two modern bridges upstream. It also withstood the so-called "Valentines Day Flood" of 1986, which submerged the bridge before destroying a 250-foot earth-filled coffer dam two miles down river.
The cement bridge has served as a landmark since the railroad went out of service in the 1940s. It did, however, serve a purpose shortly after the Hell Hole dam flood. The dam, located some 40 miles upstream, brought millions of tons of thundering water down the Middle Fork. The force of the water tore out the newer concrete-and-steel highway bridge nearby that linked Auburn with Cool and Georgetown. But the cement railroad bridge survived and was quickly pressed into temporary service to restore vehicle traffic between the two counties.
The rail route's 15 trestles and lines of tracks were removed in the 1940s: the metal and other materials were used in the war effort.
Today, a portion of the old rail route is designated as the Western States Pioneer Express Recreation Trail, in accordance with the National Trails System Act. It is primarily used by horsemen, runners and hikers. The name "no hands" came from veteran rider, Ina Robinson, who would drop her reins to ride across the then guardrail-less bridge. The bridge now stands as the "gateway to Auburn" and the final American River crossing of the Western States 100 Mile Endurance Run.

Isaiah 10:22-23 Romans 9:27
We ran into a young couple at the Oriental Gardens. They were wondering if I would use their camera to take a picture of their hands together. I asked if we could use mine instead. So we had a small impromptu photo session on just their hands and their engagement ring. I very much enjoyed working with them, trying to get the photos they were looking for.
A nice couple, and I wish them both the best.
this little redpoll slammed into the window yesterday afternoon! I have cd's hanging if front of all my windows, but she still went down! i didn't think she was going to make it ... I held her in my hands for about a half hour, blowing warm air on her - then her little legs started to move, so I put her in a small box - after about another 10 minutes, she got up on the edge of the box, took a look around and was gone:-) my husband was holding the little one when I snapped this shot!
