Proudly supporting...for six more days. 😟 We visited this longtime Hillcrest landmark for the first time yesterday, only to be informed it will close in a week. Shame. Interesting store and people/dog watching, plus I got four cool belts for only $6!
These are photos taken of Proud Boys at the second Million MAGA March in Washington, DC in December, 2020. After consideration, I have decided to publish these in Creative Commons for public discourse and for academic and legal researchers. I want to clearly state that I do not sympathize with the Proud Boys, and view them as an extremist organization that backed an insurrection.
There is a good reason to be proud. This male raised up 6 kingfisher chicks.
Kingfisher week! This week I will publish a new kingfisher photo every workday.
Lightning Info: One flash-head pointed at each subject at about 1/2 power. The one use for the bride was in a softbox.
Yesterday Taivas and I took our gold CGC test and we passed! Her behaviour was excellent both during the test and while watching others take the lower grades. Lots of barking from younger dogs which at one time she would have joined in, in fact would have been one of the worst - but yesterday she was calm and quiet. I'm very proud of her.
In the UK there are three levels, bronze, silver and gold. Taivas passed the bronze in 2006 and the silver in 2008 but has been unable to take the gold aswe can no longer get to a class. The SFLS decided to run the tests in conjunction with the AGM so finally we were able to give it a go; here's what we had to do.
Exercise 1 - Road Walk, on lead with distractions, turns and changes of pace.
Exercise 2 - Return to Handler’s Side during a lead free walk
Exercise 3 - Walk Free Beside Handler, with distractions and turns (in park or other safe lead free area)
Exercise 4 - Stay Down in one Place (in and out of sight)
Exercise 5 - Send the Dog to Bed (dog should go to bed, mat or similar and lie down quietly)
Exercise 6 - Stop the Dog (as this is for stopping the dog in an emergency situation, the dog must be moving)
Exercise 7 - Relaxed Isolation (five minutes tied on a two metre line, no whining or other signs of stress)
Exercise 8 - Food Manners
Exercise 9 - Examination of the Dog (by the examiner)
Exercise 10 - Responsibility and Care (my turn!)

This individual managed, somehow, to secure much of a bramble for himself - no berries that I could notice, but some good leaves.
But the pride! Positively radiating. ^_^
I was killing time at Mumbai Central when I came accross this man holding his baby. I could not talk his language, neither could he talk mine but I passed slowly and he displayed a friendly look. I stopped and showed the camera, he smiled and nodded. I prepared for the photo as he proudly smiled and presented the baby. I nodded back in gratitude and walked away as I noticed my eyes had gone wet. This is one of the most beautiful moments I had in India.
Estava matando tempo pela estação Central de Mumbai quando me deparei com este homem segurando seu bebê. Não sabia sua lÃngua, nem ele a minha, mas passei bem devagar e ele olhava de forma dócil. Parei e mostrei a câmera, ele sorriu e assentiu com a cabeça. Preparei para bater a foto enquanto ele sorria orgulhoso e apresentava o bebê. Eu acenei com a cabeça em agradecimento e me afastei ao mesmo tempo que notava meus olhos estavam molhados. Foi um dos momentos mais memoraveis que tive na India.

Taken at Leeds Castle earlier today. This peacock spent ages displaying himself to a nearby peahen, which was great for nearby photographers but the peahen seemed a bit non- commital
First want to thank everyone for your thoughts, concerns and prayers! I managed to sleep properly last night without injuring myself once again and my shoulder is doing great! Still in a wee bit of pain, but nothing killer like yesterday and it’s a non issue now!
This is one of the shots from my last trip to the bayou with the new gear! This Little Blue Heron posed so very nicely for me and allowed me to get a decent shot before he went off in search for some solitude! His colors were somewhat subdued when compared to others and don’t know if it is because he recently matured or what! Hope everyone has a great day!

checking out her world. She's a Royal (ball) python (Python regius). Notice her heat sensing pits above her upper lip which enable her to sense the warmth of prey animals from up to 30 feet away. Photo by Frank.

A soldier stands proud as part of a Guard of Honour as part of a Remembrance ceremony.
indian people love to be photographed and they are all so proud of themselves in front of a camera.
i simply love it.
This is my greatest achievement. I wanted to go to College and study art when I left school, but my father took one look at the long hair and hippy clothes of the students and vetoed the whole idea. I was sent to Secretarial College instead!! Dreams can come true! Twelve years ago I bought a franchise for my studio and have owned, run and taught in it ever since. I have had many incredible students and they have made me so proud of what they have achieved through me.

Candid street shot. St George, Grenada.
The earliest settlers migrated from the Amazonian basin of South America. This Amerindian descent is still evident in the northern countryside where pottery and other Indian crafts are made with traditional methods. Eighty-two percent of the inhabitants are of African origin, descendants of the African slaves who were brought to work the European-owned plantations. Five percent of the people are descended from Asian Indians also brought to the island as indentured servants. The remaining 13 percent of the people are of mixed ancestry, including European and American immigrants.
Long before Columbus sighted the island, the Amazonian Indians had established a tradition of territorial dispute. Arawak and Carib Indians originally settled the island around 1100 C.E. After the Caribs defeated the Arawaks, they were conquered by the French in 1651. Rather than submit to conquest, men, women, and children leapt to their death off of a precipice now known as Carib's Leap. The Treaty of Paris of 1763 ceded Grenada to Great Britain. Sixteen years later the French took the island back by force. In 1783, the Treaty of Versailles awarded Grenada again to the British. After another one hundred years, Grenada became a crown colony in 1877. During three hundred years of alternating occupation, the slave population on the sugar plantations grew and gathered strength.
As early as 1700, slaves and a small number of "Free Coloureds" outnumbered white Europeans almost two to one. In the Fedon Rebellion of 1795, Free Coloureds and slaves gathered in an unusual display of disregard for social segregation. In 1974, Grenada gained independence.
Almost 5 years ago I started on Flickr as a shy girl without much confidence. Back then I posted one single photo and got a few nice comments, which encouraged me to post some more.
Over the years Flickr grew to an nice hobby for me and since a few years I upload new photos every weekend, usually with a theme or short story and always as feminine as possible.
Apparently you appreciate my photos because today I passed 5 million Flickr views. I have to admit that I'm a bit of a vanity girl so this makes me proud. You deserve praise though: thank you so much for all your views and comments!
All your attention, encouragements and compliments have helped me tremendously to gain confidence as a lady. Over the years I turned from a shy in-the-closet girl into a confident lady that just loves to go out and meet people. This truly has made my life so much more happy! Therefore I cannot thank you enough for helping me to find happiness: thank you, bedankt, merci, danke sehr, gracias, spasibo, grazie!
Also many thanks to Flickr and to my own special girl Esmi (kiss for you!) who made most of the photos in my photostream.
I will continue to post photos and I hope that they will show the happiness that I feel as a girl and that you will like them. I also do hope that my photos will inspire and encourage other T-ladies to be themselves and to be happy girls. You go girls!
