Okay, I'll admit it. I hit a processing point where every photograph I touched was not turning out. At all. It was very frustrating, so (along with participating in some holiday weekend activities) I took a break from pictures.
Today, I thought I'd give some of the images another go. And I was very excited with how they were turning out!
Hooray for a brief brain break! Hooray for the Farmer's Museum in Cooperstown!
And hooray for Distressed Jewell and SkeletalMess!!!!
I truly believe that everything that we do and everyone that we meet is put in our path for a purpose. There are no accidents; we're all teachers - if we're willing to pay attention to the lessons we learn, trust our positive instincts and not be afraid to take risks or wait for some miracle to come knocking at our door.

Title: I'd previously learned my lesson through an apparent faux pas - while hiking in neighbouring Nepal - to never mention the Yeti! I did this in all innocence while sitting with our trek-guide, porter and the guesthouse-owner - where we'd stayed the night - while we all sat eating breakfast. I asked if they believed in or had ever seen signs of the Yeti, but my question was met with shocked expressions, hurried talk amongst the three of them in their own language, and then the guide completely changing the conversation - as though I hadn't asked the question at all... Oops!
Photo: Waiting for the sun to rise over the mountain-tops before we continued our journey.
Wind seen whipping loose snow off the mountaintops and into the rising sunshine a few moments before the sunlight hit the peaks.

I was hoping that by having Brady watch Rocky dock dive he might get the hang of it but it didn't work. He just stood there wondering why this dog kept throwing himself off a perfectly good dock.
“Haaarruuumph” said Yuffie sulking and kicking a cup around the hill.
“What’s up?” asked Spectre.
“The illustrator just threw me out of the class he was teaching,” replied Yuffie.
“Oh dear, Yuffie,” sighed Spectre, “what was the class about?”
“The illustrator was teaching us how to write stories and bad jokes in 512 characters or less to fit in as flash fiction,” stated Yuffie. ”He went mad when I said a really rude word startin’ with C.”
“Well that wasn’t clever was it?” said Spectre.
“No,” replied Yuffie, “it was cu

This was our Studio Photography Assignment Results: Composite Shot. More details here: www.photigy.com/studio-photography-assignment-composite-s...
Maggie was the youngest kid up there for hula lessons, and she did a great job. She ran up there all by herself without the protection of Mom or Dad and did a better job than many of the adults. A Japanese guy tried to give her the "high-five" when they were done, but she was having none of it and ran back to Mommy and Daddy to tell us all about it.

3. And most important no matter what magic your doing look cute doing it ^_^
I ran out of parts to finish this to the level I'd of liked. Ah well. But there are plenty of aspects I'm rather pleased with which will be carried on to the next version. Yes, there will be a next version! :D
And before anyone says it, I am aware the legs are totally messed up. I'm going to fully replace the legs and the arms (which can barely handle the weight of the rifle) on the next version. This was a good lesson in that it highlighted all the problems with larger mecha of which this is my first. Namely joints. I see joints in my nightmares now and I'm terrified. D:
Fig fits in to the pod on the back which also features a rather spanky opening hatch. Also very pleased with the waist assembly.
giving Lara a little dance lesson. she has never danced at an event in the belief she couldn't dance and so I set out to prove her wrong.
she did really well and we had a good laugh when it went wonky because that is what dancing is all about having a laugh.
It was a surprise to have this bird pop up very close by at the Get Your Birds! set-up in Ujarras, Costa Rica. The colours are amazing! The serrated upper mandible is noticeable too, a feature of which bird banders become all too well aware.

Colorful eroded formation in Death Valley National Park.
The title of this photograph is offered with tongue somewhat in cheek... since I would not be the first person you would go to for a real geology lesson, nor for an accurate description of the objective facts that would account for these remarkable formations. I understand that the material was layered a very long time ago, and that additional colors may have been added over time. Eventually the strata were distorted and twisted and then exposed, where the elements began a process of eroding material away and creating the sculpted effects we see today.
Regardless of the explanation, almost everything about this place and places like it evokes wonder: the striking patterns of uplifted and twisted strata, the unusual patterns of colorful material, the subtle curves of the gully that rises and then turn left, and the details visible in the soft light.

Most the Young people were somewhat experienced dancers ,many of them seen on the stages during a Year !
Just recently, many of Yosemite’s iconic names were restored, to places like the Ahwahnee Hotel, Curry Village and more. I read one article that said the locals are crying over having the names restored. They should be crying because these Iconic names were being held ransom; by a previous contractor that Trademarked them, while they were here in the park. The media doesn’t put it that way, but that’s is actually what happened. They wanted 12 million dollars to release the names they Trademarked... National Parks Service allowed this to happen, you, me and the ones crying are paying for it. I don’t need to go on about how it was done. You can research and find the truth yourself. It’s another example of the corruption and Good-Ol-Boy system, still in place, in National Parks Service.
Here in Yosemite National Park; our Superintendents tend to hide behind their staff. This happens when we address the many unsafe practices by the contractors that get paid for services, many fraudulent. Witnessing unsafe electrical equipment and water combined, exposing this to children and guest daily. That one’s just to push my buttons daily. There are many senior employees that have resigned lately over safety violations and the lack of anyone caring. Unless you have a battalion of people demanding these safety violation be addressed and corrected; you wont get pass the Superintendent’s staff, if you’re me, you don’t get in the building. Federal electrical and safety codes don’t apply here ether. Contractor’s profits come before the safety of our guest and the preservation of Yosemite National Park; is that Clear Enough....
$12 million dollars could replace and repair a lot of water fill stations. Then maybe our guest aren't stuck paying $2 a bottle.

Recently when I was in Virginia I had the opportunity to photograph this painting (one that is significantly better than the one I posted previously).
“If the river has a soul, it's a peaceful one. If it has a lesson to impart, that lesson is patience. There will be drought, it says; there will be floods; the ice will form, the ice will melt; the water will flow and blend into the river's brackish mouth, then join the ocean... endlessly, forever, amen.”
