Beryl is trying to recreate the portal she used to go back in the past.
She's a bit rusty but it looks like it's going well...
This picture is an introduction picture to my next BJD wich I will get from my boyfriend for Christmass... a new entity will enter the world through this portal... evil or good, we shall know soon
>.< I spent 2 hours to make this and it still doesn't look like I wanted it to look.. but at least it looks better then my previous 5 attempts xD
Because of their weight and size, most large waterfowl, such as geese and swans, need a long running start to get airborne.
This young Trumpeter Swan, along with its two siblings take practice runs to build up strength and speed in anticipation of their first flight which should be happening soon.
Snooker practice
Stage II
Pot all reds, each followed by a colour.
Reset everytime you miss or hit a ball other than the one you're attempting to pot.
(I think this night my best run was 7 reds and 7 colours. A far cry from my best run of 11 reds and 10 colours.)
With a total of 36 pots required to clear the table, my 'average best run' is weak at about 14 and my all-time best run of 21 is so close, yet so far. I've read that to be taken seriously as a snooker player, one should be able to clear this practice without too much difficulty. AND, once you've cleared it, you're supposed to reset it and keep going until you miss. I dunno. Maybe I could get there one day if I didn't drink while practicing, but then where would the fun be in that?
After months of weekend practice the house gets burned today. 19* and it's gonna be a cold one. Us wives have chili and breads etc. for afterwards. They are going to need it. This property was purchased and someday a fire hall for the township will sit on this corner lot.
Practicing with lights and depth of field. This is a lot to remember all at once. Also bought my first poses!

Serene photos to relax you as you go through this global pandemic. Stay safe and healthy, my friends.
Practice before the contest (in heavy rain).

Week No. 11: Portraits of Emotion
PS: disclaimer; this is archery practice with adult supervision
some website about crows and ravens, which I shall not name here, has taken many of my shots and posted a link to my whole crow set without any permission. I have emailed them to take them off ASAP, but so far no answer and the images are still posted.
Since my privacy settings prohibit any downloading or printing, I am somewhat puzzled how they got them in the first place. Does anybody know?
I don't like wildlife shots with a huge name printed right on the image, but I can understan why.
Evilyn's daily practice with her telekinesis powers is really paying off... from levitating her sister Ivy, she's now moved on to levitating me!

I'm hoping that daily practice might help me improve my photography, so i started a non-dolly flickr on 2nd January. I'm not calling it a 365 project because i doubt i'll get that far! but i'm doing as much as i can.
This was my first attempt at this kind of self portrait, and it wasn't mega successful. I had some technical issues that meant it couldn't come out quite how i wanted it to, but i decided not to re-shoot it, so i'm putting it on here as it's technically a dolly photo :)
Edit: In case you're wondering, there is very little editing in this scene, the in-camera photo is not very different at all - my dress covered almost all of the stool i was leaning back on so there wasn't much to edit out ;)
He actually had a guy come up and tell him to play him a tune. The guy was more impressed that he could play "Californication" pretty well.
Two young males couldn't resist a quick joust, though it looked rather half-hearted and only lasted for a minute or so.
Actually took my Canon R out for an airing today. Decided to practice slow shutter speeds and ICM. My biggest challenge was how I changed from AV to TV - not a clue. In my defence I've rarely used it since lockdown 1.

******************************************************************************
The Roseate Spoonbill is a wading bird of the ibis and spoonbill family. This species feeds in shallow fresh or coastal waters by swinging its bill from side to side as it steadily walks through the water, often in groups. The spoon-shaped bill allows it to sift easily through mud. It feeds on crustaceans, aquatic insects, frogs, newts and very small fish ignored by larger waders. The Roseate Spoonbill nests in shrubs or trees, often mangroves, laying 2 to 5 eggs, which are whitish with brown markings. Immature birds have white, feathered heads, and the pink of the plumage is paler. They are extremely agile high in the treetops. (They are often confused with the flamingo.)

A pair of grade school girls spend several long minutes after their afternoon classes to learn how to ride properly on their roller skates.
Taken along a village side street in Subic, Zambales, Philippines.
This was built for the Guilds of Historica on Eurobricks. I continued experimenting with cross braces, and took inspiration for the tower’s gables from Brickvader.
