自從買了Natura Black F1.9之後，我對於富士相機的高感光表現，就讚不絕口。雖然我買的是傳統相機，所謂的高感光表現得搭配Natura 1600的底片，但同樣的底片在不同相機的表現下，我還是覺得它跟Natura Black F1.9最搭。從這之後，同事們只要問我該買哪一種消費級相機，我一定強力推薦Fujifilm FinePix系列。目前最新款的FinePix F100fd，28mm廣角搭配ISO 12800真的很不錯（Flickr上f100fd的拍攝作品），連我自己都很想買，不過相機太多不是好事，就跟選擇太多等於沒有選擇一樣。
[構思]
前次跟同事們到fifi聚餐，恰巧兩位同事都是經我介紹跑去買了富士的相機，這天我自己也帶了Natura Black F1.9，一時興起之下，將相機排排站拍下了這張照片。儘管我一直覺得Fuji相機的外表，不如某些品牌來的討喜，但我還是會推薦大家買Fuji的消費級相機，表現真的很不錯。對於這類靜物的拍攝，白色的桌面還蠻適合的，只要適度避開反光，基本上都可以呈現出不錯的畫面。

Last Tuesday I visited the nursery at my local park for the first time this year.
They were preparing the gardens for the 2010 season and in the heated houses I found this beautiful Orchid that was just begging to be photographed.
Orchidaceae are well known for the many structural variations in their flowers.
Some orchids have single flowers but most have a racemose inflorescence, sometimes with a large number of flowers. The flowering stem can be basal, that is produced from the base of the tuber, like in Cymbidium, apical, meaning it grows from the apex of the main stem, like in Cattleya, or axillary, from the leaf axil, as in Vanda.
As an apomorphy of the clade, orchid flowers are primitively zygomorphic (bilaterally symmetrical), although in some genera like Mormodes, Ludisia, Macodes this kind of symmetry may be difficult to notice.
The orchid flower, like most flowers of monocots has two whorls of sterile elements. The outer whorl has three sepals and the inner whorl has three petals. The sepals are usually very similar to the petals (and thus called tepals,), but may be completely distinct.
The upper medial petal, called the labellum or lip,, is always modified and enlarged. The inferior ovary or the pedicel usually rotates 180 degrees, so that the labellum, goes on the lower part of the flower, thus becoming suitable to form a platform for pollinators. This characteristic, called resupination occurs primitively in the family and is considered apomorphic (the torsion of the ovary is very evident from the picture). Some orchids have secondarily lost this resupination, e. g. Zygopetalum and Epidendrum secundum.
The normal form of the sepals can be found in Cattleya, where they form a triangle. In Paphiopedilum (Venus slippers) the lower two sepals are fused together into a synsepal, while the lip has taken the form of a slipper. In Masdevallia all the sepals are fused.

We climbed from the bottom of Prince Philip's Steps at the water's edge, where the dinghies dropped us off, to the top of the steps where an island plateau awaited us. As soon as we had climbed to the plateau, we noticed this owl on the ground no more than 30 feet (10m) away. We all banged away with anything which would record an image. The owl just stood there and looked at us. Our guide said that he had never seen one this close before. And sure enough, during the remaining two hours of our hike on the island we saw several additional owls, but none within reach of even my 300mm zoom.

Ruby-throated Hummingbird (Archilochus colubris)
The Ruby-throated Hummingbird is by far the most common species that breeds in the eastern half of North America, although most states have sporadic Rufous sightings, and Bob and Martha Sargent have banded eight other hummingbird species as winter visitors to five southeastern states. Ruby-throats are intensely inquisitive and thus easily attracted to feeders, where males in particular typically display aggressive territoriality toward rival hummers, other birds, and even insects such as bees, butterflies, and sphinx moths. They quickly become accustomed to human presence, and will swoop down to investigate red articles of clothing, possibly as potential food sources. Feeders hung at windows attract as many visitors as ones farther from structures, and the bird that claims a feeder as its territory may spend much of the day perched nearby, guarding the food source against intruders. Many hummingbird watchers find "Hummer Warz" endlessly entertaining, although the chases are obviously serious business to the hungry birds. For a short period immediately after fledging, a female will tolerate the presence of her own young at the feeder, but they are soon treated the same as other adult birds - as rivals in pursuit of the food necessary to prepare for the fall migration.
Courtship is apparently very brief, if it exists at all, and once mated the female raises the young alone. The walnut-sized nest, built by the female, is constructed on a foundation of bud scales attached to a tree limb with spider silk; lichens camouflage the outside, and the inside is lined with dandelion, cattail, or thistle down. The nest will stretch to contain the growing nestlings, and may sometimes be reused (rebuilt) the following year.
Two white, pea-sized eggs are laid two or three days apart, which the female will incubate from 60 to 80 percent of the day for 12-16 days. Reports of the duration of the nestling phase vary from 14 to 31 days, the wide range possibly varying with the availability of food; 18-23 days is normal. when they leave the nest, the chicks are considerably larger than their mothers: they may weigh 4.5 grams, while poor Mom is down to only 2.5 g after the stress of raising them. Since the mother starts incubating the first egg as soon as it's laid, that chick will hatch and fledge earlier than its sibling; it will remain close to the nest until the other chick is ready to fly. After leaving the nest, fledglings are fed by their mother for about 10 days. It is thought that Ruby-throats live as long as 12 years, but the average is probably 3-5 years.
Physical Description
Average length: 3.5 inches (8.9 cm)
Average weight: 1/8 ounce (3.1 g)
Body temperature: 105°-108°F (40.5°-42.2°C)
Wing beats: 40-80 per second, average about 52
Respiration: 250 per minute
Heart rate: 250 beats/min resting; 1200 beats/min feeding
Flight speed: 30 mph (48 kph) normal; 50 mph (80 kph) escape; 63 mph (101 kph) dive
Plumage
Adult male: Emerald green back, iridescent ruby red gorget (throat) that may appear black under some lighting conditions, gray flanks, forked tail with no white. Smaller than the female.
Adult female: Emerald green back, white breast and throat, rounded tail with white tips. Larger than the male, with longer bill.
Juveniles: Young of both sexes look like the adult female. In August and September, young males may develop some red spots in the gorget.
Molts: One complete molt per year, which may start during the fall migration and continue into March. Young males acquire full ruby gorgets during their first molt.
Gender identification is simple if the light is right: the brilliant red gorget of the male is unmistakable. More commonly, though, the shape and presence of white on the tail is a more reliable field mark.
Distribution and Migration
Ruby-throats breed throughout eastern to midwestern North America, from southern Canada to the Gulf of Mexico. Most winter in Mexico, Central America, and on Caribbean islands, although a few remain in the Gulf states and the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Most researchers accept a remarkable non-stop crossing of the Gulf, taking 18-20 hours. They arrive at the coast in late February or early March, and follow the development of spring flowers northward, reaching my home in Morganfield, Kentucky on April 20 +/- 2 days. Males migrate earlier than females, in both directions; some adult males start south as early as JUly. Our female breeding birds leave here (Morganfield, Kentucky) in September, with the young of the year following; the last juveniles depart abruptly at first frost (mid-October). By mid-November the fall migration is essentially completed throughout North America.

A primitiva cabeça do Bom Jesus de Pirapora está cercada por lendas sobre sua origem e a forma como chegou até o Cabuçu. Foi venerada em oratório particular da fazenda por Dª Joaquina até a sua morte, quando passou ao M estre Raymundo e deste para o neto, também Raymundo Fortes.
duncan the cat is from trinidad. he followed some of us along grand riviera beach for a while. this beach is full of dogs and vultures, so it was decided we should take him home with us hhehehe, where he would be more safe.
he lived with us for 6 weeks and is one of the best cats i've ever met. he was so tiny when we met him; but he grew up so much over the weeks.
at first he wasn't so keen on jumping up and down onto things, but over time he was an amazing explorer.one morning in the kitchen i turned round and he was behind me on the worktop; so his jumping skills improved hehehe.
i miss him so much, but i bet he's having the best time still in trinidad chasing the cockroaches and play fighting with dora, his cat friend.
duncan had the cutest face; half black half pink nose and mouth hehehe <3

For the past decade, Montreal has been a base camp for the international success of a movement in alternative music. Arcade Fire, Melissa Auf der Maur, Patrick Watson, Rufus and Martha Wainwright, DJ Champion, The Dears, The Stills, Malajube, Pierre Lapointe, Simple Plan, Sam Roberts, Beast, and many others, all come from the largest French speaking city in North America. This impressive list also contains many veterans of a small but internationally respected music industry event: M for Montreal. More than just a play on words, M for Montreal is a festival that presents ‘export ready’ artists internationally, through a series of highly produced showcases in Montreal and around the world.
M for Montreal provides a unique ‘window on the world’ for Montreal artists. For Canadian acts to truly create economically viable careers, they have no choice but to secure success outside our territorial borders. At a time when the music industry is in a free fall and the federal government is cutting essential international cultural programs such as Trade Routes and Promart, M for Montreal’s work is more important than ever. As Robert Lepage once said, “that which is profoundly local is international.”

I photographed this Limpkin from the boardwalk at the Arthur R. Marshall Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge near Boynton Beach, Florida. We had just arrived at Loxahatchee and the volunteer at the help desk of the Refuge Visitor Center informed us that the boardwalk just behind the center was a good place to start our visit. About halfway into the boardwalk we came upon a couple of Limpkins. One was very near the boardwalk and I concentrated on it. The other was further away in the brush and working on cracking open an apple snail.
The Limpkin also called Carrao, Courlan, and Crying Bird, is a bird that looks like a large rail but is skeletally closer to cranes. It is the only still living species in the genus. It is found mostly in wetlands in warm parts of the Americas, from Florida to northern Argentina. It feeds on mollusks, with the diet dominated by apple snails. Its name derives from its seeming limp when it walks. The Limpkin is a somewhat large bird, 25–29 inches (64–73cm) long, with a wingspan of 40–42 inches (101–107cm. Body mass ranges from 2.0 to 2.9 lbs. (900 to 1,300g), averaging 2.38 lbs. (1,080g). The males are slightly larger than the females in size, but there is no difference in plumage. Its plumage is drab—dark brown with an olive luster above. The feathers of the head, neck, wing coverts, and much of the back and underparts (except the rear) are marked with white, making the body look streaked and the head and neck light gray. It has long, dark-gray legs and a long neck. Its bill is long, heavy, and downward curved, yellowish bill with a darker tip. The bill is slightly open near but not at the end to give it a tweezers-like action in removing snails from their shells, and in many individuals the tip curves slightly to the right, like the apple snails' shells. The white markings are slightly less conspicuous in first-year birds. Its wings are broad and rounded and its tail is short and it is often confused with the immature American White Ibis.

Recently I did work for the BA Ceramics course at Cardiff School of Art & Design UWIC. The two examples in black and white are not representations of the final images that are going into the catalog, but are just edits for my own personal use.
The head shots are being featured (in colour) as a part of the BA Ceramics course's final year catalogue of work. I am working alongside Alexander Archer-Todde a graphic designer and ceramist to create and produce the final product.
When the catalogue is finished and printed I will post up some images for you guys to see.
