Here we are in all our Renn Faire glory! Please don't use this shot to blackmail me! Larry and I are thinking of showing up in these costumes for our golf league!
I set the camera on the rear of the car hatch and we all hoped we were standing in view, that is why we got the low perspective. As the timer was ticking down , Cat said, " Don't smile, they never smiled for portraits in those days." So that is my excuse.
The ladies made all the costumes and I mean everything, even belts, boots, hats, pouches, goblet holders and knife sheathes. And... we have more than one set of costumes! I salute their talent and perserverance.

Today I used a Sony 90mm Macro lens and using such a lens imposes some restrictions for street photographers but I like it.
Famine' (1997) was commissioned by Norma Smurfit and presented to the City of Dublin in 1997. The sculpture is a commemorative work dedicated to those Irish people forced to emigrate during the 19th century Irish Famine. The bronze sculptures were designed and crafted by Dublin sculptor Rowan Gillespie and are located on Custom House Quay in Dublin's Docklands.
This location is a particularly appropriate and historic as one of the first voyages of the Famine period was on the 'Perserverance' which sailed from Custom House Quay on St. Patrick's Day 1846. Captain William Scott, a native of the Shetland Isles, was a veteran of the Atlantic crossing, gave up his office job in New Brunswick to take the 'Perserverance' out of Dublin. He was 74 years old. The Steerage fare on the ship was £3 and 210 passengers made the historical journey. They landed in New York on the 18th May 1846. All passengers and crew survived the journey.
In June 2007, a second series of famine sculptures by Rowan Gillespie, was unveiled by President Mary McAleese on the quayside in Toronto's Ireland Park to remember the arrival of these refugees in Canada.

I feel like this should be one of those "Motivational Posters" like perserverance. Because it takes some perserverance to row across the Potomac....

Koi Tattoos
According to Japanese legend if a koi succeeded in climbing the falls at a point called Dragon Gate on the Yellow River it would be transformed into a dragon. Based on that legend, it became a symbol of worldly aspiration and advancement.
More generally, the Japanese associate koi (also known as carp) with perserverance in adversity and strength of purpose. Because of its strength and determination to overcome obstacles, it stands for courage and the ability to attain high goals.

Perseverance,
I don't know how can this athlete navigate his course. Foggy lake, row backward, maximum strength of his muscles, and full speed ahead.
I should learn from him.
