I love this photo I shot of Niner. We were on a hike in Santa Teresa park with the Bay Area German Shepherd Meetup Group when we stopped to take a break.Everyone was having their Shepherds climb up the rocks. When Niner got up there and started looking around several members told me he looked like Rin Tin Tin, I turned this into a B&W photo and it does remind me of the opening scene of the old TV series.

Song that gives you that "warm fuzzy" feeling:
“Hey, don't write yourself off yet.
It's only in your head you feel left out or
looked down on.
Just try your best, try everything you can.
And don't you worry what they tell themselves when you're away.
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle, it'll up the ride.
Everything will be just fine, everything will be alright.
Hey, you know they're all the same.
You know you're doing better on your own, so don't buy in.
Live right now.
Yeah, just be yourself.
It doesn't matter if it's good enough for someone else.
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything will be just fine, everything will be alright.
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything will be just fine, everything will be alright.
Hey, don't write yourself off yet.
It's only in your head you feel left out or
looked down on.
Just do your best, do everything you can.
And don't you worry what the bitter hearts are gonna say.
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything will be just fine, everything will be alright.
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything will be just fine, everything will be alright,” Jimmy Eats world.
I remember when way back in Junior High People made fun of me for my weight, and how I wish to see those people now and say: WHAT NOW B!TCHES... Sans the hurtful language... right? I think I'm going to be alright. I'm realitively content with my life at the moment, and I don't need people like those whom inspired negativity in my life anymore...

Photos of the Chiltern Kindred's 2011 Nine Year Ceremony.
Nine Years is a festival we hold every nine years at harvest time and is inspired by the ancient ceremonies of Upsalla, Sweden. The theme of the 2011 ceremony was the nine worlds of Germanic mythology. Behind the altar a tree was decorated with nine offerings from each of the participants.
Celebrated at Naphill, Buckinghamshire, England.

Introduction to the Nine Emperor GodsThe Nine Emperor Gods Jiǔ Huáng Xīng Jūn / Jiǔ Huáng Da Di (九皇星君/九皇大帝) are the nine sons manifested by Father Emperor Zhou Yu Dou Fu Yuan Jun (斗父周御國王天尊) and Mother of the Big Dipper Dou Mu Yuan Jun (斗母元君) who holds the Registrar of Life and Death. The worship of Dou Fu Yuan Jun has declined strongly as proper teachings of Taoism degenerate since being exported out of China. Today, most Nine Emperor God temples do not acknowledge the existence of Dou Fu Yuan Jun. However, Dou Fu Yuan Jun is invoked alongside Dou Mu Yuan Jun in Great Dipper Honouring known as Li Dou (禮斗) ceremonies. According To Priest Long Hua, the 35th Generation Leader of Long Shan Men Taoist Sect (Singapore), honouring the Northern Dipper stars prolongs one's life, eliminate calamities, and absolves sins and past debts of oneself and his family.The term Ye (爺) as in Jiu Huang Ye (九皇爺) loosely translates as "Grandfather", a title worshipers commonly use to bring a more intimate relationship between themselves and the Nine Emperors. The Nine Emperor Gods should not be mixed up with the Wang Ye or Princes of the Ming rebels. Popular folk culture has it that the Nine Emperor Gods are actually sea pirates of the Ming dynasty that plotted to overthrow the Qing dynasty. According to Priest Long Hua, this information is inaccurate and considered derogatory to the actual teachings of Taoism as the Nine Emperor Gods are actually high ranking Star Lords who preside over the movement of planets and coordinate mortal Life and Death issues.The Nine Emperors is formed by the 7 stars of the Big Dipper of the North Ursa Major (visible) and two assistant stars (invisible). When viewed closely, the arrangement of the 7 stars "the ladle"; and the 2 assistant stars on its left and right resembles a Yin-Yang pattern form.The Nine Emperor Stars are:1.

Since the arrival of the gods are believed to be through the waterways, processions are held from temples to the sea-shore or river to symbolize this belief. Devotees dressed in traditional white, carrying incense and candles, await the arrival of their excellencies.A carnival-like atmosphere pervades the temple throughout the nine-day festival. During this period of time, the constant tinkling of a prayer bell and chants from the temple priests are heard. Most devotees stay at the temple, eat vegetarian meals and recite continuous chanting of prayer. It is believed that there will be rain throughout the nine days of celebration.The ninth day of the festival is its climax. A procession which draws scores of devotees send the deities back home.

This is a full resolution reworked version of one of the first photos I put on Flickr (back before I had a pro account). Someone wanted to buy a print of this particular figure, so I dug up the original and started an account over at imagekind (which has a version without a watermark). If anyone buys anything over there, maybe this will become a habit.
