There is just something about being out in open country, about seeing the sun rise over a pond, that's really beautiful.

This is a male Karner Melissa Blue Butterfly posing in the typically sandy soil at Wilton Wildlife Preserve. This sub- species is endangered and relies on habitat support from the Nature Conservancy and the NYS Dept. of Environmental Conservation among other organizatons. The Karner Blue was first identified and described by the famous Russian novelist Vladimir Nabokov, who was also an expert lepidopterist. He found them in the same habitat near Albany, NY.

Blushing Lady and Rhapsody of Smiles tulips are both late blooming varieties, and both were chilled for 6 weeks before planting. Mother Nature threw a curve ball here in San Francisco -- as in much of the Northern Hemisphere --with record warm temperatures in January and near record lows in March resulting in all the tulips trying to bloom at the same time!
Wishing you a happy Sunday and a good start to the new week. Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments -- I appreciate them all.

Did a photoshoot with my friend, Melissa, yesterday! We went earlier than I usually go to take photos, so the sun was high but it was a nice touch. Enjoy!
Pois é meninas, estou postando a foto da minha antiga melissa flocada ‘macarrão’ vermelha.
Tomei coragem e desfloquei toda ela com acetona, paciência, muita paciência, espátula e algodão. Ela estava totalmente surrada e eu tinha deixado de lado. Antes de jogar fora, pois não dava nem para doar, decidi desflocá-la.
Gostei bastante do resultado e ando usando-a muito.
p.s.: mas não ficou 100%
Geeeeeente tava querendo esse modelo fazia teeeempo.
Achei aqui na loja da minha cidade, e olha que eu compro sempre lá a nunca a vi *-*
é um laranjao meesmo *o*

No existen palabras en mi vocabulario para expresar mi agradecimiento y locura por la caja llena de regalos de cumpleaños que he recibido de mi querida Melissa
Es como si sumara mi cumpleaños, Hallloween, navidad, los Reyes Magos y el ratoncito Pérez, todos a una. Estoy sin palabras y más feliz que un millón de campanillas.
❤
I simply don´t know how to express my gratitude and crazy love for the birthday gifts I received from my beloved Melissa
It´s like I´m celebrating my birthday, Halloween, Christmas, the Three Wise Men and the Tooth Fairy, all in one. My head is a ferris wheel, my eyes are lollipops, my nose is a carrousel. I´m speechless and happier than a million jingle bells.

Today was one of those do nothing type of days where i just sit around watching movies. Normally thats a pretty good day in my book but it just happened to be super damn hot. It was to hot to move literally, i wanted to go out and do something but just the thought of facing the heat out made me lazy. I wanted to do something better then just finding something to shoot in my place fo rmy picture of the day. when melissa came by early i said i would use you at my picture of the day but i have zero ideas. I been toying with the idea of going back to bunker hill to retake the shot i have early in my short photography career. I knew if i went back i could improve upon my efforts. Then melissa sent me a text saying if u cant think of anything, just let me know and i'll help :) Then i thought i would try to challenge myself to shoot a night portrait with the blue hour against some buildings downtown. the shoot was harder then i expected it to be since it was very difficult to get the buildings in the shot the way i wanted to. i almost needed roof access for the shots i had in mind. My roommate dom also tagged along and he turned out to be a great assistance as he became a human light stand holding the flash and umbrella and taking great direction. it was quite a fun shoot!

Today melissa and I set up plans to go shoot near downtown la. She wanted to visit a place i been before and raved about. This location in downtown is so weird and unique it almost makes you feel like your no where near la. She wanted to take some shots against some urban backdrops. we battled the traffic and made it in time to catch some sunlight. Overall im very happy with how these shots came out. quite a fun day.

Melissa is a photographer friend whose birthday is the day after mine. For the past couple years, we meet up for a portrait exchange around our birthday, and it's a fun excercise. :)

I photographed Melissa as part of my Flickr 100 Strangers project. This photo of Melissa with reflections of me in her sunglasses was one of the portraits I took of her. The one I selected for the project can be seen here: www.flickr.com/photos/jeffcbowen/18960305355/in/photostream/
I was on Front Street in downtown Toronto this morning, checking out an historic building that was redesigned by Aaron, a retired Architect and my Stranger #818 (www.flickr.com/photos/jeffcbowen/18248730940/in/dateposted/). Part of the building is complete, including a multistory addition above it, and part is still undergoing renovation. I was starting to unlock my bicycle to move on when I saw her. She was coming toward me on the sidewalk with her beautiful blue scarf and circular sunglasses. She had a composed, relaxed air about her as she passed me and my curiosity was tweaked. I stopped her and she removed her earphones. I proceeded with my usual “Excuse me. My name is Jeff and I’m doing an amateur photo project….” She agreed without a second thought and said it sounded like a great project. We shook hands. Meet Melissa.
We were on a busy sidewalk with the building front on one side and a huge street construction project on the other side. It was “scramble time” as I looked at the immediate surroundings to come up with a way to make use of the opportunity. I posed Melissa between the building of interest and the building next door: The Hockey Hall of Fame. I knew the bright light in the laneway was less than ideal but I proceeded. I asked if I could straighten her sunglasses and she said “Sure. That’s ok. They might not straighten. They’re kind of wonky.” She was right. “Ok” I said. “That will be part of the character of this photo.” We shared a laugh. I had to photograph from the other side of the sidewalk and I appreciated the pedestrians who stopped to wait between “takes” so as to not get in the way. People can be so accommodating.
Not sure that I had a good enough image (see comment photo) I asked Melissa to move a few steps to the open doorway of the building under renovation. The workmen were inside and I called to them to ask if it would be ok to step inside the doorway for “just one minute” to take a photo of Melissa. They looked at each other and waved me in. I positioned Melissa inside the door with construction disarray behind her and balanced myself on the step outside the door. It was somewhat precarious but it worked. I asked Melissa to remove her sunglasses and suggested that she follow up her smiling photo with a relaxed, neutral expression and figured I had the photo. Thanking the workmen, we stepped onto the sidewalk to chat.
Melissa, 22, was born and raised in Toronto. She is a recent college graduate with a major in Public Relations. “Oh, so you’re probably just hitting the job search?” “Well, pretty much. But I think I’m going to take a little break for travel first. I’m going to Quebec where I hope to learn some French which will make me more marketable.” Smart strategy. What was she doing when I interrupted her progress? “Oh, I was just walking to the park to relax and read a book. I like to alternate fiction pleasure reading with more serious reading.” I can remember one of the joys of finishing university was being able to read whatever I wanted to read without guilt that it wasn’t a textbook. “Any words you would like to share with the world?” Melissa laughed at the scope of the question. “I know, I’m just making life difficult for you” I said. She replied “No. Just give me a second. Uh, I think I would say to make time to do the things you value and don’t put them off.” I think she was talking about travel. “What do you like to do when you’re not going to the park to read?” I asked. “Well, I like food. I mean I REALLY like food.” “Your favorite food?” “Let’s just say I REALLY like food.” (smiling)
From the few minutes we spent together Melissa came across as very friendly, relaxed, and sincere. There was a gentle honesty about her and I thought it striking that she responded to my unexpected project request as if it was the most natural thing in the world. I think these nice qualities show in the portraits.
With that I thanked Melissa and freed her up to get to the park on this beautiful, sunny Toronto morning. Thank you Melissa for taking the time to meet and for participating in 100 Strangers. You are #834 in Round 9 of my project. Have fun in Quebec and good luck with your job search. And be sure to enjoy some of that Quebec cooking!

Update: I received a very nice email from Melissa saying she had enjoyed our meeting and she was positively impressed by my photos. She thanked me and wished me well on my continuing project. It was very nice feedback.
