This hood ornament was on a Dodge Ram truck, probably from the 60's, but I'm not sure. I like the pitting of the chrome because it adds texture to the photo. I used my Nikon 50mm 1.8D lens along with a +1 close up filter. I like this combination because it adds a softness to the background and edges.

Had this RAM for a year, first chance to use 4WD Shot would have been more dramatic if I'd stopped half way up the hill, but was afraid it would slide away. Record-setting snow for this early in the season in Missouri

These cool Ram 5500's belong to United Towing of Livermore. I photographed these recovery trucks and dozens more in October at the California Tow Truck Association's annual parade to raise awareness of the state Move Over Law. Be sure to slow down and move over for tow trucks & other emergency vehicles providing assistance alongside our busy roads or highways. More of my photos from this parade can be seen on the CTTA's facebook page.

ARCTIC RAM 2012 is the biggest and most complex Army-led exercise ever undertaken in the Canadian Arctic. Approximately 1500 soldiers, predominantly from Edmonton, Alberta (AB), Winnipeg, Manitoba (MB) and Shilo, MB, will be conducting training in the Yellowknife to Gameti corridor.

The Ram is the mascot of the UNC Tarheels and is referred to as Rameses.
The origin of a ram as Carolina's mascot dates back to 1924. In 1922, the star fullback, Jack Merritt, was given the nickname "the battering ram" for his performance on the field. Vic Huggins, Carolina's head cheerleader at the time, suggested the idea of a ram mascot to the athletic business manager, Charles T. Woollen, and had the idea approved. Charles gave Vic $25 to purchase a ram. Rameses the First was shipped from Texas, just in time for the pep rally.
The first appearance of Rameses was at a pep rally before the football game against Virginia Military Institute on November 8, 1924.[2][3][4] After the pep rally the ram was taken to Emerson Field. Through three quarters the game was scoreless. Late in the fourth quarter Bunn Hackney was called out to attempt a field goal. Before stepping out on the field he rubbed Rameses' head. Just a few seconds later Hackney kicked a 30-yard field goal that eventually won the game for the Tar Heels; the final score was 3-0. Rameses has been a fixture on the sidelines at UNC football games ever since. I knew Bunn Hackney as he was the Boy Scout Executive of the Uwharrie Council when I was a Boy Scout.
Incidentally, Ramses is not present at basketball games. Can you guess why?

Danzig playing "Classic Songs By The Misfits" at Ram's Head Live in Baltimore, MD. Except not one Misfits song was played! Read my blog post at clintjcl.wordpress.com/2008/01/24/i-want-my-the_misfits-s... to see exactly why this concert was the WORST DISAPPOINTMENT OF MY LIFE, and why I think Ram's Head Live are a bunch of lying wankers. The blogpost includes my 4 videos, which are also posted on youtube.
Suffice to say, these are my most commented YouTube videos, and my blogpost has spurred some discussion as well. Now it's time to take my anger to Flickr!
In this video, fans are VERY VERY VERY pissed off!
yelling.
people.

Ram's Head Live, Baltimore, Maryland.
October 23, 2007.
... I used to have a list of every concert I've ever been to at www.acm.vt.edu/~clint/media/concerts.htm ... but a jerk named John Edstrom decided to delete everyone's shell accounts, even those who had been using our Virginia Tech ACM accounts for 15 years.
One of the grandest and most rewarding monuments of the ancient world, the Temple of Amun at Karnak simply cannot fail to impress with its grandeur. It is a vast complex of buildings over three main precincts, the greatest of which is that of Amun with the enormous great temple at its heart. This is the main draw for all visitors to Karnak, with its avenue of sphinxes, huge courtyards and incomparable pillared hypostyle hall. It is not only one of Egypt's most important monuments but simply one of the greatest ancient sites anywhere.
The great temple of Amun dominates the complex and is the work of successive dynasties throughout the New Kingdom, at which point the local god Amun had been established as the state god of Egypt (his name means 'the hidden one', as he only rose to prominence relatively late in Egyptian history, largely connected to the rising importance of Thebes as the centre of power, thus its local god rose with it). Some of the earliest parts at the east end date to the reign of Thutmoses I with successive sections added by other 18th & 19th Dynasty rulers, with great obelisks erected by Hatshepsut and much of the Hypostyle Hall and pylons built under Seti I and his son Ramesses II. The first courtyard and the main pylon were the latest additions to the temple under the reign of Nectanebo I and were never fully finished.
The temple is approached through and avenue of large ram-headed sphinxes, each protecting a small pharoah figure between their paws, representing the god Amun (whose sacred animal was the ram) protecting the king. These statues are usually identified as dating to the reign of Ramesses II, but it is possible they may date further back to Amenophis III. Originally this avenue stretched all the way through what is now the first courtyard to the 2nd pylon and hypostyle hall, but after construction of the 1st pylon and courtyard those beyond the new facade were stored in rows either side of the new courtyard beyond the entrance pylon.
The main facade is formed by the towering 1st pylon built under Nectanebo I and never finished, the stonework is still rough-hewn and lacking in decoration and the northern tower remains somewhat shorter than its southern neighbour. The southerrn tower has at its rear the remains of a mud-brick ramp used during construction. The courtyard beyond is vast and dotted with pillars and statues from various earlier stages in the growth of Karnak, including a towering column from a pavilion built by Nubian Pharoah Taharqa, two colossi of Ramesses II (one usurped later by Pinedjem) and more of the ram-sphinxes that once lined the approach.
Beyond the courtyard is the more ruinous 2nd pylon which leads to the most famous part of the Karnak Temple complex, the incredible Hypostyle Hall, sometimes called the 'Hall of a Hundred Columns' owing to the great multitude of thick, round columns in every direction, like a forest of enormous tree-trunks in stone. There are 134 columns in all in 16 rows, the central axis columns being taller with palm-capitals, whilst the rows either side of this carried a clerestorey of stone-latticed windows, many of which survive (originally these would have been the main light source when the hall had its roof). The decoration on the columns and side walls dates mostly to the reign of Ramesses II and is in sunken relief, but some earlier work from Seti I's reign in raised-relief can be seen on the north side.
Continuing along the main eastern axis the great temple becomes more ruinous and harder to follow, but several major features stand out such as the obelisk of Hatshepsut and the much later barque shrine, whilst some distance beyond the festival hall of Thutmosis III, a pillared structure that represents the most substantial remaining part of the eastern sections of the temple and retains some coloured decoration inside.
In addition to the main eastern axis of the temple there is the southern axis that is formed of four courtyards and further pylon towers and gates which extend towards the precinct of Amun's consort Mut (a much more ruined site reached by equally ruined sphinx avenues to the south, one of which also connects with that leading to Luxor Temple a mile or so further on).. These sections of the complex are mostly closed to visitors at present with stabilisation works ongoing.
There are further smaller temples and areas of great interest around the huge Karnak site, which we have visited on a previous trip (we once spent an entire day here in the pre-digital 1990s), but sadly time was limited on this occasion to focusing on the major sections of the great temple itself, so we hope to return to spend longer here another time.
