I realized a week or so ago that I only had 44 pics in the Mount Saint Helen folder and thought that odd as I've been there many times so I've been rooting around in my archive and realized that I once again had grabbed the wrong shot, this is nearly identical to 'Windy Ridge' but there is less fog and one can see the terrain much better so.....
As I was going over my photos from 2015 I realized there were many images that were never processed. Last year was a very busy travel and home renovation year for us and I did not take the time to fully enjoy the photos sitting on my hard drive.
Last year we went to the Annual Rally on the Rocks for side by side off road vehicles. Unfortunately we had a mechanical failure on the first day minutes into our first trail ride. We made it back to camp but could not get a replacement part and install it before the rally would end. We made the most of the trip and enjoyed taking the La Sal Mountain Loop drive in the truck. Then the rains came.... we were kind of glad we were not on the trails!

I realize over time I have gotten quite a little Grumpy Cat Collection... First I got the tiny Needle Felted girl to ease my pain when I missed out on Miss Ixnay...Then Came the art from my lovely friend Punky Blythster and I found a couple of mugs last weekend :D
And Of course Ixnay Finally joined the Lawdeda Clan <3 So happy!
Hope you are all having a great weekend!
I realize this is not the type of image I usually do but I loved the soft cool tones in an abstract kind of way. I do not expect many people to look at but I had to post I really liked even though I know most wont.This was from a recent trip to Canada to shoot some of the fresh snow in the Provincial Parks but I was not so blessed with very good weather in terms of sunshine. This was an image on my way home as the fog began to lift just as I was going home - something I am sure photographers are used to !
I am trying to get to comment on my fellow photographers and I apologize for not getting around as much as i would like to due to so much recent work - sorry !!!!
Thanks for any comments or critiques

So, I had a really great double silhouette idea for MELO, then I realized there was no way I'd be able to scrape together enough black pieces for it. Back to the drawing board--and I'd stumbled across a cool concept art drawing of this scene while I was developing my first idea, so I came back to it.
Deciding whether or not to go minifig scale was a challenge, in the end it boiled down to having no idea how to build Eowyn's boots in a larger scale (because I started at the boots XD ).
The story goes something like this:
An epic battle rages outside that white city with tall skyscrapers (whatever it's called, something to do with mines I think). Then just when the good guys are creaming everyone, this evil dude on the vicious beast rides into the fray and someone important gets caught under his frightened and fallen horse. So the evil dude tells his vicious beast to take a bite out of the important fellow under the horse, when out of nowhere Eowyn appears and slices the vicious beast's head off. Then she bounces around for a bit trying to avoid the evil dude's blade and mostly succeeding (but she gets that shiny shield splintered--so what, it wasn't hers, she just swiped it off the battlefield anyway). Now the evil dude is feeling pretty confident, because he knows no man can kill him, but turns out a woman can kill him, so when Eowyn runs her sword through the place where his nose would be if he had one, he shrivels as all evil dudes should.
That's more or less what I got out of it anyway.
Like my last entry, this one has a lot of photo editing--but unlike my last entry, this one has a lot of building too. ;)
It also fulfills the technical requirement for a Summer Joust bridge... see?

I never realized what excellent protective coloration the Common Buckeye has, until I saw this one disguising itself as a dead leaf.
Cosumnes River Preserve, a Nature Conservancy Reserve, Galt, California. September 2018.
I had realized that the day before we turned our clocks back would have the latest sunrise of the year, making it a great opportunity to get out there without getting up super early. Headed for Mare Island (it had been a while) only to find murky skies and fog. No complaints - that's awesome too. A handful of aerials from last weekend.

Realized I can never win
Sometimes I feel like I have failed
Inside where do I begin
My mind is laughing at me
Tell me why am I to blame
Arent we suppose to be the same
Thats why I will never change
This thing thats burning in me
I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldnt last
I am alive full of pain
I feel the anger changing me
Sometimes I can never tell
If I got something to help the pain
Thats why I just beg and plead
For this curse to leave me
Tell me why am I to blame
Arent we suppose to be the same
Thats why I will never change
This thing thats burning in me
I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldnt last
I am alive full of pain
I feel the anger changing me
Beaten
I feel so
Insane
I really
Tried
I did my time
I did my time
I did my time
I did my time
I did my time
I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldnt last
I feel alive full of pain
I feel the anger changing me
O god the angers changing me
O god the angers changïng me
🔆 What is a sovereign?
I have realized that I have my own truth within me.
I have realized that I am free from manipulation on the outside and that my inner voice is my guide.
I have realized that I am never alone because I am part of the All Being.
I have realized that I want to use my abilities to serve nature, people and animals.
I have realized that my free will has meaning.

I've just been down to Sonoma County, California for a few days.
I lived thereabouts for about 33 years and it was fun to see some of it
through "the eye" again.
Realized I never posted this. One of the first trains I bagged after moving to Lincoln for college, was the 627 with the area’s only non-yard SD60M on the point.
I realize this is a similar shot to several others I have published but I found the variance in the sky and weather can give it a completely different feel. This one was one of my favorites and I have saved it for last. I love the difference between the warm tones on the left, the cooler blues on the right, and the bright appearance of the vanishing point, like a door that only needs to be reached and opened.
I realize, but I like the end result.
This is a piece that started out as a hydranga, again that I was going to use for Bokeh Wednesday, and found itself becoming something like a piece of art in my eyes. I just couldn't help playing with it until I got it to the mood I felt fit the photo and made it more dramatic at least in my eyes! I hope you like it.

I'm sorry I've posted so many tonight. As I have said in the past, when I have time to work on my photography, I like to get as much done as possible and share with all my friends. Thanks for being so understanding!
After we realized the Bison were going to stay put we headed back to try another trail. I looked over the fence and I saw this cow who was very curious about the activity on the other side of the fence. I got quite the stare down!

(TMS) Ocean Beach Tribal Carbon/Pink
The most beautiful and detailed (TMS)Ocean Beach ever seen on Second Life.Interiors and exteriors completely redesigned.A lot of working hours were needed to make this boat and about 50 textures have been applied.
Reflections, luminosity and alpha totally revised, but you do not have to worry because to apply all this you will have to do only one simple operation:
drag a script from the inventory to over your Ocean Beach . Just a simple mouse movement and your new boat will be ready to sail in the Linden seas. ⛵⛵⛵

I realize this is a door, but "Just don't hit, push, kick, punch or otherwise hurt me anymore" is never something anyone should say. If someone is purposely hurting you, there is no "anymore." There's only get the hell out. It's not easy, and usually requires help and support, but it's essential.

I didn't realize I had this one more DE of the band. This might be my favourite, with the cherry tree bonsai in flower. Although maybe not, with the singer facing away. Although I love that she is wearing a lacy dress with white Converse All*Stars.
They were shooting a video or taking promo shots on the beach at Discovery Park in Seattle. I asked, but forgot their name. I found their name in my phone, Heavy Bloom! Here is a link to video they made this day. youtu.be/5G7iSDVQDTs. Beach footage beginning at :56.

Everyone,
I just realized I had not posted or visited anyone in a few days so I wanted to make a quick post to give a heads up.
I have been on a bit of travel and i JUST purchased the new Adobe CS5 and a WACOM tablet sooooooo its going to be a few days before I can post or comment.
i will TRY to get to everyone over the next few days, but definitely by the weekend.
I apologize for taking the week off, but for anyone who has made this upgrade you understand how much stuff there is to reorganize and how much there is to learn before you can get back to work.
So I will see you all VERY soon, I just wanted to give you all a big Flicka hug and let you know ill be back amongst my Best Flicka Friends (BFF) as quick as I can.
Hope you all are having a GREAT week )
TIg.
I was cleaning out unedited files from a folder and organizing them when I realized I really wanted to add some more of these to the album. I don't know about you but usually on a big chase day where you shoot 500 frames I end up with a dozen at best I choose to edit and share. But this was one of those days where the ratio was more like 50% instead of 2%...it was just that good of a day! There aren't many of those in this hobby so why not?!
Anyway, the winter of 2021-2022 didn't yield any plow trains of any sort for me so here is a look back to a spectacular day spent along those magical Washington County rails of a railroad that should need no introduction.
Making a rare Saturday run the Batten Kill Railroad plowed the entire length of their line with a pair light engines to open up after the massive 3 feet of snow deposited on Washington County by Winter Storm Gail. Double heading (because they can't MU right now) are two vintage products from nearby Schnectady: G&J 4116 a veteran ex D&H Alco RS3 (blt. 9/52) and SNEX 5012 an ex Atlantic & Danville Alco RS36 (blt. 12/59)
They paused here at Rexleigh Road for a bit to shovel clear all the snow they just plowed on to it after busting through with their locomotives. Having taken care of that chore they are back on the move south. I stepped back to make the classic image with 5012 framed up from inside the 1874 single span 107 ft Howe Truss Rexleigh Covered Bridge spanning the Batten Kill. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places it is one of only 29 such covered bridges in New York State.
This location is about MP A128.7 on the BKRR's mainline, the one time D&H Washington Branch. The A prefix denotes Albany, and despite being less than 40 miles in a straight line, via rail it's nearly 129 miles north to Castleton, west to Whitehall, then south to Mechanicville and on to the state capital and the D&H's historic headquarters city.

Wishing all you mothers a Happy Mother's Day, realizing and appreciating all of your hectic schedules and the way you all somehow make it work to have and enjoy your precious family moments. I believe that this work describes your crazy lives and yet keeps the true love you all have in your hearts. Perhaps a busier work than usual to upload for Mother's Day, but let's face it, times are busier than ever for you and so I wanted to describe 2021 Mother's Day as it is. Sending every good wish and loving thoughts and vibes your way. Enjoy your day!
HSS 😊😊😍
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
I realized I hadn't edited a landscape in a long time so I was working my way through my massive backlog of images, being really hard on my work as I always am, until this one popped out at me. It's actually a composite of two images of the same scene. It's just a combination of a warmly lit foreground mixed with a sky above the exact same scene from about 9 minutes later. It always amazes me how little time needs to pass for the light to completely change a scene. Now I want to get really poetic about certain scenes in my own life where I'm waiting on changes and trying to keep hope that it will take less time than I expect. I have the ideas, just not the words. So for now here's a picture of Chimney Rock in western Nebraska from last January. I was just hanging out waiting for some wonderful friends to get off work while enjoying the awesome beauty of the creation that surrounds us! That's one of the things I love most about my photography. I use my pictures as backgrounds and screensavers on my phone, tablet, computers, and TVs. Every single image that pops up takes me to a memory. I feel the cool breeze, remember the moment, and usually the people I was with. Photography is an expensive hobby, it can be time consuming, and yes you can end up being hyper critical of your own work like I mentioned earlier in this post, but it also shows you things you never would have seen otherwise and, if you display your shots in any way, it constantly reminds you of some of the brighter moments along your path.
and i just realized
... my life is just a word in a poetry
"there’s something sad’ning,
In these dreamy moods of yours,
Since the present proves so fleeting,
All the past for you endures.
Weeping at forgotten sorrows,
Smiling at forgotten jokes;
Life epitomized in minutes...."
(part of paul l. dunbar's poem)

I realize this is not for everyone. I took it for an illustration background for a Bible study website. Inspired by John Bunyan's "A Pilgrim's Progress," a still life in subdued and subtle tones.
In the photo: two antique illuminated Bibles c. 1830's (vols. 1 and 3), two antique prayer books c. 1840's, an antique pocket New Testament c. 1840's, an iron spike from the historic Sierra Nevada Sugar Pine railroad c. 1830's, a wood walking stick, modern Bible translations and tools, a modern illuminated Bible, a ram's horn trumpet (shofar), a vase of feathers (quills) from birds around the word.
Most people don't realize that this is not just about working conditions...it's about learning conditions. The schools that have the chairs and desks that are falling apart, the lead in the water (a high number of public school drinking fountains tested), the roaches and the rats tend to be schools on the South and West sides where we have blighted neighborhoods and food deserts. Children learn very early on that there is no investment in them. Currently, our mayor would rather invest in more police in schools and in neighborhoods instead of in young human beings and that is unacceptable. This is true school to prison pipeline level of racial discrimination and it must stop!
This also filters down to abelism too. If you live in a neighboring district and you happen to have a child with a physical need, you can get top of the line equipment. In Chicago, you have to beg and beg and then you get dirty broken equipment that isn't safe that has literally been stored in a warehouse for decades. That is not OK!

I realized on day 2 of my road trip from Washington, DC to Los Angeles that I couldn't simply wander around looking for interesting stuff like I would back home. I tried to find places along the way that would be interesting and settled on Mead's Quarry in Knoxville. I figured wherever we ended up would be my only photography stop in Tennessee and wanted a chance to try shooting some reflections in the still waters. It was a good choice despite Scotch being worn out and having only a bit of light left by the time we arrived.

I realized I haven't posted many shots from my B.C. trip in the spring of 2022. I'll post more over the next few weeks. This is Avatar Grove on Vancouver Island. I don't usually appear in the photos but the trees are so big it's good to have a person in the shot to show scale. I knew this ahead of time so I brought a red jacket ;)
I posted four today, so be sure to check out the other B.C. pics. More of my photos are at www.burntpixel.ca
I didn't realize the Bradford pear trees actually produce little fruits. Pyrus calleryana, or the Callery pear, is a species of pear tree native to China and Vietnam, in the family Rosaceae. It is most commonly known for its cultivar 'Bradford', widely planted throughout the United States and increasingly regarded as an invasive species. The inedible fruits of the Callery pear are small (less than one cm in diameter), and hard, almost woody, until softened by frost, after which they are readily taken by birds, which disperse the seeds in their droppings. Anyway, this is a new species for my prairie seed collection.

There's nothing more satisfying than realizing an idea. The idea came for this shot several years ago when I first visited this sea cave on the South West coast of Vancouver Island.
Upon entering the cave, my first thought was ''I bet the Milky Way passes through that opening in the summer''.
I knew I wanted to capture that shot but wouldn't it be so much cooler if I could place a stargazer in that shot?
I filed it away in memory and years later I got the opportunity to turn the idea into reality with Amanda.
When we ventured into the sea cave at Mystic Beach with this shot in mind, I wasn't entirely sure that the stars would align.
The chances of getting clear skies on the last day of September with zero wind... well, we got very lucky.
I put this image together using several exposures that were shot over a 30 minute period and obviously had to focus stack my model Amanda and then blend that exposure with the background.
As soon as I saw those first exposures on the back of the camera I knew I'd nailed it. Amanda was able to keep perfectly still during those long exposures while I did some light painting using just a headlamp.
It was the perfect end to the perfect day. One that I'll cherish for the rest of my life.
Thanks for looking

In 1874, realizing the need for a school, Bannack Masonic Lodge No. 16 built the combination lodge and school house. Classes were held in this building for nearly 70 years. The school finally closed in 1951 as a result of too few students. Over the years classes were held in various other buildings in town. The Gibson House, next door, the Road Agents Store, across the street, and the church all served as temporary “school rooms.” Students who remember the early years of schooling in Bannack recall snow blowing in through the cracks between the wallboards. School books were rare and usually consisted of only what the families brought with them.

My Interplanetary Memories
Interplanetary Travel
I realized that I hadn't eaten in a while. My complicated mood has reached such a level that I forget what I have to do. I realized that I hadn't eaten for a while, as soon as I got up from where I was sitting, as a result of my dizziness and falling to the ground. When I measured my blood pressure and blood values as soon as I came to myself, I realized that I had not eaten anything for a long time. My psychological state had almost destroyed my sense of hunger. While I should have measured my biological values twice a day, I realized that I had not done these for a while. Since there is no one inside my spaceship to warn me but myself, the probability of this situation happening again is quite high. There is nothing here to remind me of me, except the computer that gives a warning when I forget to measure my biological values. Just because I turned off the computer's warning system a while ago doesn't mean I don't care about myself. Rather, it was something I did to get away from living like a robot. It was just one of my attempts to feel human again. Turning off the computer's warning system also helped. I took myself out of the routine and let myself go with the flow of life. This made me a little bit happy. I guess the routines I had to follow on this space journey made me live like a robot. But I was not a robot. I was a human. And I had feelings. These were the emotions I had to experience. I think it's been quite a long journey for a human, this space travel. It was a journey long enough to make a person get lost in his mind. This is a more complex disappearance than being lost in the depths of space. I still have not deviated from my course in this space journey that causes journeys to the past in the depths of the mind. I don't want to go back to planet earth before I find the Plutonians. Maybe I'll never find the plutonians. Maybe I'm looking for a civilization that has disappeared. In this case, this search could take forever. I think it has turned into a commitment for me. I consider myself part of the plutonian civilization. But on the other hand, my belonging to planet Earth, that is to my home, forces me to return home. I am going through a very difficult time. There are dozens of questions running through my mind. All I do is sleep and daydream when I have to find answers to each question. It's the only way for me to escape reality. Because, as soon as I answer the questions in my mind, I know that I will change the course of my spacecraft to planet earth and put an end to this space travel. That's why I need to avoid the questions that occupy my mind. This situation adversely affects my biological health. I don't forget to eat is only one of them. I still don't know what to do. I think it would be best if I put a stop to this post here for something to eat. See you in the next post. Take care of your soul...

The first day of my trip included a run through Wapanocca Wildlife Refuge. Indigo buntings were abundant but very wary. After realizing I could not approach them, I found a spot where a half dozen buntings were feeding on insects and sat still for several minutes. As long as I didn't move, they came close and often. At least, two dozen buntings were seen in the refuge.
