Risk It All
By Yuna
Let me tell you what
I’ve been thinking about
Love is on my mind
Yea I’m freakin’ out
When I’m lying down
Feels like somethings wrong
Coz I got someone
Waiting for me now
In my mind,
we’re holding hands
Do you see it baby?
In my mind
We don’t got to pretend
Can you feel it babe?
I would risk it all
Just to feel your touch
I just want it all
If it aint too much
If the sky should fall
We can say we tried
Boy its natural
Let our worlds collide
Someone told me once
When you find your love
Hang on to it tight
Never let it go
Not gonna wait to find the courage
I’m gon’ go ahead and say it
Before it’s too late
Just listen to me baby
In my mind,
we’re holding hands
Do you see it baby?
In my mind
We don’t got to pretend
Can you feel it babe?
I would risk it all
Just to feel your touch
I just want it all
If it aint too much
If the sky should fall
We can say we tried
Boy its natural
Let our worlds collide
I would leave it all
To be with you
You should leave it all
To be with me too

Ticks are small, parasitic arachnids that can carry and transmit various diseases to humans and animals. Some common diseases associated with ticks include:
1. Lyme Disease: It is caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi and is transmitted primarily by the black-legged tick (Ixodes scapularis) in North America. Symptoms include fever, fatigue, headache, muscle and joint aches, and a characteristic skin rash.
2. Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (RMSF): It is caused by the bacterium Rickettsia rickettsii and is transmitted by the American dog tick (Dermacentor variabilis) and the Rocky Mountain wood tick (Dermacentor andersoni). Symptoms include high fever, headache, rash, and muscle aches.
3. Babesiosis: It is caused by microscopic parasites of the Babesia family and is transmitted primarily by the black-legged tick. Symptoms may include fever, fatigue, muscle aches, and anemia.
4. Ehrlichiosis: It is caused by bacteria of the Ehrlichia family and is transmitted by the Lone Star tick (Amblyomma americanum) and the black-legged tick. Symptoms may include fever, headache, fatigue, and muscle aches.
To avoid tick-borne diseases, consider the following preventive measures:
1. Wear protective clothing: When venturing into tick-prone areas like forests or grassy areas, wear long-sleeved shirts, long pants, and closed-toe shoes. Tuck pants into socks and opt for light-colored clothing to spot ticks easily.
2. Use tick repellents: Apply an EPA-approved insect repellent containing DEET (N,N-diethyl-meta-toluamide) or picaridin on exposed skin. Permethrin-based repellents can be used on clothing, shoes, and camping gear to repel ticks.
3. Perform regular tick checks: After spending time outdoors, thoroughly check your body for ticks. Pay close attention to areas such as the scalp, behind the ears, underarms, groin, and the back of the knees. Promptly remove any attached ticks using tweezers, grasping them as close to the skin's surface as possible.
4. Create a tick-safe environment: Keep lawns and outdoor recreational areas well-maintained. Clear leaf litter, tall grasses, and brush around your home to minimize tick habitats. Consider using tick control products or seek professional pest control services if necessary.
5. Check pets and gear: Pets can carry ticks indoors, so ensure regular tick checks and appropriate tick prevention measures for your pets. Examine camping gear, backpacks, and other outdoor equipment for ticks before bringing them indoors.
Remember, early detection and proper removal of ticks can reduce the risk of contracting tick-borne diseases. If you develop symptoms after a tick bite, seek medical attention promptly and inform your healthcare provider about the exposure to ticks.

Bramham Biggin is situated on Bramham Park and is Grade II* Listed The building dates in part from the 17th century and is constructed of local magnesian limestone with a stone slate roof, on the site of a medieval Nostell Priory monks' cell.
It was a college from 1842 to 1907 but closed because of a typhoid epidemic, the headmaster is buried in Bramham churchyard. Afterwards it became a private residence again.
Bramham Biggin is now vacant and has been for some time, so the three-storey house in the Bramham Park Estate is in a state of disrepair and English Heritage have now identified it as at risk.
More information and the history of the name Biggin can be seen at www.leodis.net/ViewImage/ByIndicator/2004118_63416690
While hunting for a composition, I came across this rocky area at Marshall Point. It looked like it had potential, so I examined it further from various perspectives. As in Risk Management, one hedges against the future hoping for the best outcome. And since it is always a crap shoot, we do our best to prepare as best we can.
The sunset may or may not arrive. But 80% of successful landscape photography is being there. After that, having a scenic landscape combined with sunset colours, help with the final result. The rest is in the form of technique and can be found on numerous YouTube videos.
You're your own lifeguard here. Swim at your own risk and beware of Rip Currents. Tidal Flats. Southern Outer Banks.
The winter weather is absolutely brutal as Metra 143 heads outbound with a Union Pacific Northwest Line train, passing under the searchlights at Clybourn Junction, Chicago. Windchills were well below -20 degrees F, and raw, ripping wind was driving powdery snow into every crevice. Risking frostbite and hypothermia like an idiot, I stood outside on the platform for over an hour here to document the (Covid-reduced) "rush" in some of the most intense winter conditions Chicago had seen in a few years.

Tonight, many people in Cumbria are at risk from severe and dangerous flooding.....my heart goes out to them. Let's hope dry London has taken notice....my son was flooded in July and has just returned to his house in December.
Fort de plus de trente ans d'expérience au Philadelphia Inquirer , Swanson a documenté les conséquences de l'ouragan Katrina (2005) et du tremblement de terre en Haïti (2010). Il a partagé le prix Pulitzer 2012 du Philadelphia Inquirer pour sa couverture des violences scolaires.
Swanson connaît le danger. Il était intégré aux unités militaires américaines en Afghanistan en 2003 et en Irak en 2004, lorsqu'il a été blessé par balle au bras.
Couvrir les manifestations actuelles à Los Angeles est risqué, mais moins mortel que de couvrir les combats.

Swanson knows all about danger. He was embedded with U.S. military units in Afghanistan in 2003 and Iraq in 2004, when he was shot in the arm.
Covering the current protests in Los Angeles is risky, but less lethal than covering combat.

Sometimes risking it all gives the best result ... I bet this SP would vacate at the very end of the runway, and it did. So here it is, A4O-SO in glorious morning sunshine after a flight from Andrews AFB, Maryland. Two hours later the weather was overcast!

Here is another photo from the Tops of 2018 folder that I'm just now adding to FB. This is the caption I wrote at the time:
After getting the photos in this post:
facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1996662910633820&id...
After getting those shots the whole gang of Doug Boudrow, John Kittredge, Tyler Varnum, Vincent Colombo, and whoever else I'm missing moved down to the Ludlow area to shoot the foliage train from Chester coming up the hill. We did the same, but then made the risky decision to chase east a bit cause there was one shot I really wanted with the last Green Mountain painted geep on the rear.
We weren't sure if we could get it and then still double back west before the 263/slurry freight started down hill.
Well, as you can see, we did.
This shot posted a while ago if you missed it: flic.kr/p/2i5muQ4
But if we hadn't and missed the shot of 263 round the curve at Okemo in perfect storm light I think Doug would have lost it!
This is the shot I took the risk for. Green Mountain GP9 804 rides the rear of the 10 AM foliage train heading back east downgrade on the former Rutland mainline to Bellows Falls. The old Rutland bridge over the Black River in the village of Proctorsville just east of Depot St is so cool to frame a train in with its build date cut out in the top of the truss frame.

I tossed caution to the wind and boldly approached the skeletons of this T-Rex, prehistoric dog and dino hatching from an egg, along with a terrifying gargoyle. This is serious permanent stuff, not a Halloween display.
My strong recommendation to other photogs in a similar dangerous situation: Don't try this at home, folks!
At the risk of sounding crazy, this is where I saw some oddly moving lights in the sky around midnight one night. They were far away and seemed to be searching the landscape for something. The light beams were tilting up and down, also. They moved vast distances in seconds. Everything was still and very quiet. After watching them out of the tent window for nearly ten minutes, I grew tired again and went back to sleep... hoping that they wouldn't head my way (which they didn't).
In the arid land of southwestern Wyoming, you can see over vast distances. It is a hot, dry, and harsh environment... and inhospitable for those who are unprepared. The landscape consists of dirt and rock... and although there is some evidences of life (sagebrush, antelope, deer, gophers, and birds), bushes and trees are scarcely seen. The clouds and hills cast sculptured shadows across the landscape. Buttes jut out of the hillsides like cathedrals. It is quiet and still... no one is within miles and miles. This arid desert land has a beauty all of its own.
