A black & white version of a photo that I took in April of the Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain.
The original image is made up from 5 stitched shots using my Nikon D800. The camera was on a tripod and each shot was a 3 second exposure.
It looks like a very simple photo but post-processing in Photoshop wasn't easy. Using my normal procedure and working on the image in 16 bit Tif format meant that the image was over 750mb in size.
Where: Hospital
Procedure: C-Section
Final Pregnancy Weight: 185lbs.
Two Ups: I love the epidural & room service
Two Downs: the smell of my own burnt flesh & being awake during the whole procedure as the doctors discuss the political candidates (shouldn't they be focusing on me)
Mood: Scared & Sleepy
It became evident that after 20 hours of labor, I would need a C-section. The doctor informed me that even though with the help of pitocin, I still wasn't able to sustain the contractions on my own. The baby was either too big to deliver vaginally or I was too small to push him out. I had endured 3 grueling of hours pushing and nothing, no progress.
At this point, I was exhausted, fatigued, tired and sleep deprived. I wanted him safely delivered and I didn't care by what means. What I wasn't prepared for was going into surgery. My heart was set on a vaginal birth, but the circumstances did not work in my favor. I began to feverishly shake. I was nervous and scared that I would have to be awake during this whole procedure. As I was strolled down the hospital hallway in the gurney, my mind began to race: will the epidural wear off before they begin cutting into me, will there be complications with the delivery, is my baby safe?
It happened so fast. They began with the incision, then I felt pressure in my lower abdomen and a tug. Soon, I heard a gurgling noise like someone trying to breathe, gasp for air. The nurse began to clear my child's airway. Then I heard his cry. At that point, I was relieved and I began to cry. It was the most beautiful sound.
The nurse brought him towards me. She put his forehead to mine and I kissed him. The first thing I said to him was, "I love you." That was the last thing I remember.
(I'm having a small procedure, and may be quite late getting to your posts today.)
Today I want to show you something usually unique in the world of birds, but this one is uniqueR. I found this perhaps one of a kind Nuttall's Woodpecker morph on Mt. Diablo, California 12 years ago. Now, morphs are unusual to start with, maybe less so with a woodpeckers whose range is just California, but I'd never seen one before, and I've never seen one since. I would imaging that an Acorn Woodpecker morph would be more unusual, but I just had to bring back this Nuttall's for one last showing. I'ce asked quite a few birders, and thanks to the feather patterns, at least they could identify the species, but no one has been able to tell me the sex of this Brown Morph Nuttall's.
Only three percent of birds are polymorphic, fewer than that are woodpeckers. All things considered, since I've only been involved in avian photography and birding in general, that I have now photographed five morphs is quite a bit of luck. One was a hawk, but the morph of that hawk is as high as five percent, it became its own subspecies (if that's the way it works.) I will post that again when (and if) I can find enough images for a Radical Raptors Day. (More likely a year.)
Nuttall's woodpecker (Dryobates nuttallii) is a species of woodpecker named after naturalist Thomas Nuttall in 1843. They are found in oak woodlands of California and are similar to the ladder-backed woodpecker in both genetics and appearance. Nuttall's woodpecker has black wings and tail feathers with white barring. On the ventral surface, colour is white with black spots and barring. It has a black forehead with white streaks on the sides and an unbarred black region at the top of the back. Adult males have a distinguishable red crown which females do not. I cannot find any record of a Nuttall's morph, but that doesn't mean that this is the only one. It does mean that I've been incredible lucky. Perhaps it's a female where all feathers that should have been black are brown.

It has been a while since I posted theme pictures, so it is time to introduce a short photo story. What's more we have a great occasion, the spring is coming and Ice sculpture festival "Thousand Winters" just passed in Uppsala.
I couldn't miss this opportunity to capture it.
The festival was all week, so I planed to go on Wednesday night, when there is little ambient light to distract the view from the sculptures. I got at the place around 22, so not a lot of people wondering around. The sculptures were nicely lid with blue LEDs, which filled the ice with blue diffused colour. The cold was strong, so after couple of pictures I could hardly feel my fingers, but occasional warming procedures helped to keep it going, otherwise I couldn't press zoom button on camera. At the end I managed to capture the beauty of sculptures and grab couple of Uppsala night pictures.
Dinner for One, also known as The 90th Birthday, is a two-hander comedy sketch written by British author Lauri Wylie for the theatre. German television station Norddeutscher Rundfunk (NDR) recorded a performance of the piece in 1963, in its original English language. This comedy sketch went on to become the most frequently repeated TV program ever.
The 18-minute single take black-and-white 1963 TV recording featuring British comedians Freddie Frinton and May Warden has become an integral component of the New Year's Eve schedule of several German television stations. Versions of the sketch are also shown in Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Estonia, Lithuania, the Faroe Islands, Austria, German-speaking Switzerland, South Africa and Australia.
On New Year's Eve of 2005 alone, the sketch has been repeated more than 230 times.
The line "Same procedure as every year" has become a very popular catchphrase in Germany. The phrase has entered everyday vocabulary, and is used in newspaper headlines and advertisements.

That's our Tussi - she takes her retirement seriously.
Well, that's okay when you soon are 15 years old and are a kitty.
This video shows the feeding procedure of the chicks. I took the video with the slow motion function of my camera. For the feeding section I was slowing down the video even more. I was impressed by myself to see how much nectar the mum is giving their chicks through the beak . Watch closely . Hope you enjoy it .
Cheers out there in the world 😀
Normal procedure is for the daily 7A09 07.12 Merehead to Acton to wait in Woodborough loop until the Plymouth to Pad plastic passes ,however on 05/Jan/22 it left the loop early ahead of said plastic unit,only to find itself having to use Hungerford loop to allow the Plymouth to Pad to pass.Here 59202 in charge of todays 7A09 creeps up to the signal with the Tytherington to Appleford being the last occupant of the loop only having just left a short while ago.
A example of two chemists and an intern failing to follow lab procedures and thus, increasing the chances of being in contact with these highly lethal concoctions.
Aside from the college intern wedged in the lab cart, notice that none of them are wearing gloves, no lab coat worn, open-toe sandal, legs exposed to skin reactions and the lab goggles they all wear have no secure sealing around the eyes exponentially increasing the chances of pupils becoming dilated and permanent blindness (refer to the notes attached within image 1.1 above)

These shots made me late for work again!!!! You just can't drive on by when there's that much color floating around the sky!
Why the title? I've been running out of hard disk space on the computer, so today is the day that I'm going to attempt to add a second hard drive. It's supposed to be a fairly simple procedure, but I'm just a tad nervous about going into my computer's innerds!
If all goes well, I'll have 500 GB of storage.....^+^!!!!!!!!!!
Wish me luck!!
Since 2011 Michael and I meet at the end of the year to visit this special Christmas Market and have a mulled wine there.
We also always take one of these photobooth-pictures. :o)

Every day at 11:00 a ScotRail Class 156 from Mallaig to Glasgow meets with the Jacobite Steam train (also known as the Hogwarts Express) from Fort William to Mallaig at Glenfinnan, the only station between Fort William to Mallaig with two platforms. There is a slight problem however, as the siding is only long enough for 6 coaches, while the Jacobite is 8 coaches long. So how do these trains pass each other?
1. The Jacobite stops at platform 1 just before the level crossing to platform 2.
2. The ScotRail train enters platform 2 and all disembarking passengers have to quickly cross in front of the stream locomotive.
3. The Jacobite pulls ahead just enough to clear the rear switches while still having coaches on the platform.
4. Now the Class 156 can leave for Glasgow.
5. Later, the steam train continues its journey towards Mallaig. In the meantime, its passengers can visit the small museum in the station building and the historic signal box.
This is repeated EVERY DAY at 11. In the summer, when the Jacobite runs twice per day, probably even more often.
One thing you can (almost) always count on in the Canary Islands is stable weather all year round. And so, almost every day begins with a fantastic sunrise over the sea, if you are on the right side of the island.
I really wanted to capture this morning scene on the kilometre-long sandy beach of Maspalomas on Gran Canaria with my telephoto lens. In doing so, I was eyed critically by some sports enthusiasts and asked if I was photographing their bottoms.

Same procedure as last time: Actually, I wanted to take some pictures of strawberries, but I didn't like them.
Now, this is a bird-vetch :)
Have a wonderful weekend, boys and girls !!
The same procedure as last year: Instead of my taxi driver, it was 🎅Santa who took me to town. Unfortunately he did not use his sleigh but a car …..

After having a think about my procedure for making a cup of tea I knew the one thing I do is to leave the teabag in the cup for a few minutes to let it infuse the flavour as I do like a strong cup of tea.
Fortunately the cup I usually use is a clear glass one so I was able to focus on the teabag inside the cup and back light the scene using my flashgun and a white sheet of card placed behind.
I experimented using both hot and cold water and after taking quite a few exposures this was one of only a few I was happy with.
One thing I did discover is that it is now time to clean the sensor on my D7000 once again as I had to make use of the spot healing brush a bit more than normal.
Taken at Cleveland Tattoo Convention-2016. This shot is all about human hands. One hand is applying tattoo on human body (somewhat painful procedure) while another pair of hands holding each other to compensate physical pain.
Surgical procedures are “blah.” I’m bleeding, in pain & swelling. But I’ll have extra time to read today & watch She-Hulk. I will do my best to fool my brain into thinking that it is having a wonderful day.
They are all very worried about Benny at Ground Control. Could be nothing, but better activate all the emergency procedures. Those also include a rescue expedition to Outpost Alpha. Someone is getting ready for the voyage. Quick, quick! Every minute is precious!

"Same procedure as last year ?" is a catchphrase out of the 18 minute one act play 'Dinner for one'. Dinner for one or Der 90. Geburtstag has played on German television every New Year's Eve since 1972.
Starring Freddie Frinton and May Warden, the film shows an old woman and her butler at a dinner table where they pretend her deceased friends are sitting. The butler asks, "The same procedure as last year, Miss Sophie?" The woman replies, "The same procedure as every year, James!" Then the butler proceeds to pour many rounds of drinks for the table, impersonating her friends giving toasts, and drinking all of the alcohol himself. The film ends as the very drunk butler walks the woman to her room and asks, "By the way, the same procedure as last year, Miss Sophie?" She responds, "The same procedure as every year, James!" He says, winking, "Well, I'll do my very best!"
