Family:NymphalidaeRafinesque, 1815
Subfamily:SatyrinaeBoisduval, 1833

Genus:AphantopusWallengren, 1853

Species:hyperantus(Linnaeus, 1758)
Introduction
This is a relatively-common butterfly that is unmistakable when seen at rest - the rings on the hindwings giving this butterfly its common name. The uppersides are a uniform chocolate brown that distinguish this butterfly from the closely-related Meadow Brown. Despite this uniformity, a newly-emerged adult is a surprisingly beautiful insect, the velvety wings providing a striking contrast with the delicate white fringes found on the wing edges. The dark colouring also allows this butterfly to quickly warm up - this butterfly being one of the few that flies on overcast days.
Variation in this butterfly is primarily focused on the rings on the hindwings, the lanceolata aberration being particularly striking, where the rings are elongated to form teardrops. Other aberrations occur where the rings are greatly reduced or completely absent. Huggins (1959) also describes a form in Kerry, Ireland, that is of normal size until 600 feet, when it starts to be replaced by a dwarf form that, at 1,000 feet, takes over completely.
This butterfly can be found throughout most of the British Isles, south of a line between the South Ebudes in the west and Banffshire in the east. It is also absent from the western parts of northern England, north-west of the Midlands, the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands. This butterfly forms discrete colonies where numbers vary from a few dozen to several thousand.
Aphantopus hyperantus
This species was first defined in Linnaeus (1758)
Conservation Status
This is one of the few species that is doing well, with evidence of increases in both distribution and population. It is not, therefore, a priority species for conservation efforts.
Habitat
A variety of habitats is used, although sites characterised as being sheltered and damp are preferred, such as woodland clearings, woodland edges and rides, meadows, hedgerows, road verges and country lanes, where the full heat from the summer sun can be avoided and where the foodplant is lush. The butterfly is not typically found in open areas, such as grassland or heathland.
Life Cycle
There is one generation each year, with adults emerging in the second half of June, peaking in mid-July, with a few individuals continuing into August. The flight period is relatively-short when compared with its close relatives.
Imago
Male and female are almost identical in appearance, although it is just possible to make out the feintest of sex brands on the forewings of the male, which contains special scent scales used in courtship. Males adopt an exclusive strategy of patrolling for mates and are often seen in ones and twos fluttering among the grasses that typify their habitat.
A mated female lays her eggs in a somewhat-chaotic fashion, typically perched on a grass stem and ejecting a single egg at random, often into the air, causing it to land in the vegetation. Both sexes take nectar from a variety of sources, Bramble and Thistle being particular favourites.
Adults feed primarily on Bramble (Rubus fruticosus), Fleabane (Pulicaria dysenterica), Hemp Agrimony (Eupatorium cannabinum), Kidney Vetch (Anthyllis vulneraria), Marjoram (Origanum vulgare), Privet (Ligustrum vulgare), Ragwort (Senecio jacobaea) and Thistles (Cirsium spp. and Carduus spp.).
Ovum
Eggs are a pale yellow when first laid, but soon turn a pale brown. The stage lasts between 2 and 3 weeks.
Larva
The larva is nocturnal and hides by day at the base of a grass tussock, emerging at night to feed on the tenderest parts of the foodplant. The larva hibernates while in the 3rd instar, but will feed on particularly warm evenings during the winter. Regular feeding resumes in the spring when the larvae can be found by torchlight feeding on grass stems, although they will fall to the ground with the slightest disturbance. There are 4 moults in total.
The primary larval foodplants are Cock's-foot (Dactylis glomerata), Common Couch (Elytrigia repens), False Brome (Brachypodium sylvaticum), Meadow-grasses (various) (Poa spp.) and Tufted Hair-grass (Deschampsia cespitosa).
Pupa
The pupa is formed in a flimsy cocoon, comprising just a few strands of silk, at the base of a grass tussock. This stage lasts around 2 weeks.

One of the rollerbladers last night in the Grand Palais, doing a grind on a metallic railing . No special effects here, this is straight out of the camera :-)
If you look closely (easier with large size), you can see the 2 dark silhouettes of the skater still jumping onto the rail a moment before, and sliding a moment after. I'm not sure what caused this, might be a combination of my own flash and someone's else on the other side I think ?

The flat hill in the distance is a marvelous formation that can be recognised from miles away. Just to the south of it is located the historic 77 ranch first owned by Peck and Converse. Mike Shonsey of the Johnson County Range War was employed by the 77 ranch. www.wheeler-roots.org/histories/history-shonsey.php
In his book,The long trail from Texas, Ad Spaugh talks of burying a couple children who live with thier mother in a cabin east of Flat Top that took sick and died. They were buried on a pine knoll nearby Flat Top by a crew of sad cowboys.
My Grandmother who knew Ad and sadly recalled visiting with him about the burial. She told me of it before I had ever read the book many years later. Exciting and hard times...

♪ ♫ We Don't Talk Anymore ♪ ♫ ~~ by Cliff Richard.
Used to think that life was sweet,
Used to think we were so complete,
I can't believe you'd throw it away.
Used to feel we had it made,
Used to feel we could sail away,
Can you imagine how I feel today,
Well it seems a long time ago you were the lonely one,
Now it comes to letting go you are the only one,
Do you know what you've done.
It's so funny how we don't talk anymore,
It's so funny why we don't talk anymore,
But I ain't losing sleep and I ain't counting sheep,
It's so funny how we don't talk anymore.
Well it really doesn't matter to me,
I guess your leaving was meant to be,
It's down to you now you wanna be free,
Well I hope you know which way to go you're on your own again,
And don't come crying to me when you're the lonely one,
Remember what you've done.
It's so funny how we don't talk anymore,
It's so funny why we don't talk anymore,
But I ain't losing sleep and I ain't counting sheep,
It's so funny how we don't talk anymore.
But I ain't losing sleep and I ain't counting sheep,
It's so funny how we don't talk anymore.
But I ain't losing sleep and I ain't counting sheep,
It's so funny how we don't talk anymore.

Jeudi dernier après le boulot Yoann et moi nous sommes allés sur la plage de Bourda/Montjoly (entrée Ifremer) pour tenter un coucher de soleil. Malheureusement, elle était pleine de joggers et de kitesurfers. La marée était trop haute pour essayer de composer avec les rochers, donc... encore un autoportrait (désolé ;-). Plage de Bourda, Guyane française.

Last Thursday after work Yoann and I went on the beach of Bourda/Montjoly (Ifremer's entry) to try a sunset shot. Unfortunately, it was full of joggers and kitesurfers. The tide was too high to try to compose with the rocks, so ... yet a selfportrait (sorry ;-). Beach of Bourda (French guiana).

A little break in my cold Finnish seascapes...Back to some hard core urban architecture shots! ;-)
As of October 19th 2008, the height of the Burj Dubai is estimated at 730 meters (2395 feet). Speculated final height: between 800 and 950 meters...Anyway, there is already another project of a 1000 metres tower in the pipe, also in Dubai!
This is a handheld (40mm at f/8 with my Tamron 17-50mm) 5exp tonemapped HDR. This had to be shot very fast as the car was stopped on the emergency lane of a busy highway!

Republic forces in retreat! While rescuing General Aayla Secura from certain defeat, Anakin Skywalker has been seriously injured. After a narrow escape, our heroes crash-landed on the remote world of Maridun. Stranded, and with no way to contact the Republic, the Jedi receive medical aid from the peaceful Lurmen colonists. But even on this tiny planet, the war threatens to follow the Jedi....
Star Wars The Clone Wars means so much to me. It defined so much of my childhood all the way into my teenage years, and even now it still impacts me. Then you also have Rebels, it never ends haha :P
I'll currently rewatching Star Wars the Clone wars in canon order and am close to finishing Season 5. Still such incredible content! As I've been going I've been jotting down ideas from episodes I want to build, and this was one of the first on the list. This is of course from the Episode Jedi Crash. I have lots more planned (and currently have 2 others built) So get hyped. But yeah you know, exciting! There'll be MOC's from Seasons 1 through to 5 and most likely even the Lost Missions too.
I know I've watched Seasons 1 and 2 more time then I can remember, and this episode was always a very enjoyable one for me. Not my favourite by any means, but very enjoyable!

I'm exhausted beyond words. I'm getting 3-4 hours of sleep a night, no more than that. I'm bombarded with school and homework. Geometry quiz, two sections of history notes and Q&A, and an entire double-page spread for the yearbook all due on Friday, none of which I have started, none of which I have the damn time to do. I'm beat, so bad I want to cry. The worst part is, when I get into my bed, no matter how early or how late, it takes me hours to fall asleep. Hours.
I want a cure.

L'Obelisco Lateranense è uno dei tredici obelischi antichi di Roma; attualmente si trova a piazza San Giovanni in Laterano.
Con la sua altezza di 32,18 m (con il basamento e la croce raggiunge i 45,70 m.) è l'obelisco più alto del mondo.
Fu realizzato all'epoca dei faraoni Tutmosis III e Tutmosis IV (XV secolo a.C.) e proviene dal tempio di Ammone a Tebe (Karnak) in Egitto. Fu portato a Roma per volere dell'imperatore Costanzo II nel 357 ed eretto dal praefectus urbi Memmio Vitrasio Orfito sulla spina del Circo Massimo, dove già si trovava l'obelisco Flaminio.
Venne ritrovato in tre pezzi nel 1587, insieme all'obelisco Flaminio, e fu eretto nella sua attuale collocazione nel 1588 dall'architetto Domenico Fontana per volontà di papa Sisto V.
97/365 - Just Say Yes - Snow Patrol
Please take my heart... Love that band and that song so much, the lyrics are beautiful, heard it again this morning on the TV, don't know why but it speaks a lot to me.
So I decided to get back on the idea of choosing a music first, and then realize some picture using the inspiration I found. I think it's the most difficult but exciting way to play with lyrics.
So that's what happened today, I decided to use this song and that's the idea I found for today's shot.
This is the Saint Catherine street, just the longest pedestrian street of Europe in the deep center of Bordeaux.
There's always so much people and shops over there, it's amazing.
Spent a great afternoon with my friend Julien, thanks to him for the picture !
One thing you don't know is how much this picture and the concept illustrate perfectly Julien's yesterday !
It's really too funny, the composition and the picture is relatively simple but I'm really proud of this one.

oggi è un giorno di lutto nazionale...concedetemi di esprimermi per una volta esclusivamente in italiano e concedetemi anche di accostare a tutti i caduti italiani di tutte le guerre questa che è la preghiera del marinaio…l’ho ritrovata qualche giorno fa all’entrata del faro della vittoria a trieste ed ha risvegliato in me vecchi ricordi di quando la voce di mio nonno me la sussurrava ed io mi addormentavo sicuro di avere il petto più forte del ferro...pur pensando che a qualcuno farà fare un sorriso di scherno, ho voluto fotografarla perchè rileggendola, per un attimo, m’ha fatto battere più forte il cuore
He was standing on the side walk a few feet away from the busy cross section. He stood still with his eyes closed and he would smile at times. I couldn't help but jump to the conclusion that he probably is daydreaming. Maybe he was dreaming of a different life, different place, or different situation. Whatever he was dreaming about he was definitely happy. I could not help but smile when he smiled, his smile was full of joy and happiness. I was truly happy for him that even for a couple of minutes he was able to go into his own world and escape reality.

Yes, this one is old, but the photo I took yesterday was a failure--and I didn't want to post another lame photo just for the sake of posting.
I'll try to do better.
Lately, all creativity seems to have gone out the door.
Now I try, but come up with nothing but empty thoughts. The product of over thinking.
I'm thinking of starting some sort of mini series to get going on this again. But really have no idea what I'd like to do.
Suggestions?
Luz de otoño
Afuera; en las calles hay olvido de vehementes tormentas.
Afuera; desde las ramas de un árbol sigue brillando el sol.
Afuera; sopla el viento revolviendo las hojas apagadas
y el silencio se torna más mudo todavía.
Hay un gris que despierta en el aire deshojando mi aliento,
hay un rumbo que me invita a tomarlo por las veredas solitarias.
Seguirlo es, para mí, una manera de decir;
caminemos juntos.
Otoño siempre tiene algo de sueño escondido entre sus pliegues.
Es la manera de decirlo todo sin pronunciar palabra.
Es la pausa de algo, el por qué de alguien.
Es estar solo y a la vez acompañado
en la intimidad indecente de la conciencia.
El repiqueteo constante de una agradable nostalgia
que se vuelca sobre las calles que camino.
Es estar parado donde siempre quise:
sobre la sombra de un árbol desnudo.
Otoño siempre tiene algo de sueño escondido entre sus manos
para dormirlo todo.
Soñarlo es para mí una manera de decir;
ven, el otoño, más que mío es tuyo,
más que tuyo, es nuestro…
ven, para que entremedio de los árboles sin hojas,
por una vez, por esta vez, caminemos juntos.

We attended a landscape photo workshop yesterday (Sunday). Not too close - 4hr drive to location in South Moravia, Czech Rep. so we had to wake up at 4am and got back home too tired around 11pm. But it was so worth it. Location was stunning and well known by the pro photographer who was leading the workshop. And he even managed to secure ideal weather somehow LOL. Area was full of rolling hills that are used for agriculture so the fields were vibrant and varied. Sky was nice and blue almost all day with those puffy white clouds moving very fast in the strong wind and that resulted in an amazing light&shadow show on the fields.
At one moment I spotted a triangle illuminated in the sea of shadows so I immediately turned the ball head on my tripod, prefocused manually, adjusted polarizer & 1-stop hard edge grad filter, set the exposure and fired. Post process included only the adjustment of the levels to achieve better contrast, tiny bit of saturation and square crop.
Didn't have time to play with all the photos yet but this one is my personal winner - at least I think so ;) Anyways... expect more photos soon.
Thanks for looking!
Your feedback is always appreciated ;)
