Brave little tomboy Clover ain't so tough afterall! Heehee! Takes a boss sometimes to put one in their place!!
A couple of weeks back, I took only film downtown and happened to take a handful of really awesome photos. Unfortunately, I had not advanced the film all the way so the pictures only existed in the realm of my mind. One of them was a cyclist on State Street, with awesome shades hunched over on his bike after a hard ride.
Fast forward to present day where I just so happened to be out snapping pictures while out on a lake loop, and I came across this fellow with cool shades resting. He complimented me on my bike and I back at him, and I told him I liked his look and asked "can I take your picture?" He gave a big smile and said, "Yes but I feel we've had this conversation before." Sure enough, he remembered me snapping his picture two weeks previous. Madison is such a small world and cycling seems to bring things full circle more times then not for me.
As we had more time today and I wasn't shooting film, I learned that Mauricio only recently took up cycling in the last few years for mental health and physical fitness. Hailing from Costa Rica he's still getting used to winter. Allowing him to recapture him, I have included him in my (608)strangers project as well as the 100 strangers group here on Flickr. While I took his picture before that was just a random snap that never got to see the light of day. This just goes to show you that you never know who you may cross paths with and remember to keep!
All the gear and no idea!! ;)

I was up North this past weekend, and one of the things we always do there is go to the shooting range. My brother-in-law is a really good shot with his 9mm, so I proposed that I would hold a clay pigeon up, and he would shoot it out of my hand. At first he didn't want to do it, but I said I had just watched him hit the pigeon 7 times out of 10, and I thought those were pretty good odds. He consented.
So, I set up my camera for rapid fire, and put it on my tripod. As I stood 20 feet down range, his brother held the camera trigger down and Carl shot the clay.
In hind sight, this might have been a little foolish, but I liked how the picture came out at the moment of impact, so it was all worth it. I made a diptych out of the last frame before impact so you could see that his target was actually quite large, and thus, I was never in too much danger.
I still have all of my fingers, although they did sting for a bit afterward. I tried to have my "calm" face on, but that's as close as I could get. If I had a faster camera, it would have been cool to see the bullet.

As tornado sirens were going off for a few hours we took shelter in our basement. In the background my wife can be seen checking the tornado reporting on our the local tv stations. Luckily we did not get hit, but some other nearby towns were not so lucky. I had my Leica M9 with me and took this photo to document the moment.
A little shot at Bahamas Memories resort
The Bahamas became an independent Commonwealth realm in 1973, retaining Queen Elizabeth II as its monarch. In terms of gross domestic product per capita, the Bahamas is one of the richest countries in the Americas (following the United States and Canada). Its economy is based on tourism and finance.[10]

Maspalomas lifeguards don’t just keep watch — they own the beach in bold red. From their lookout perch they scan the shoreline with calm professionalism, the only splash of colour in an otherwise muted palette. Whether the Atlantic is behaving or throwing a tantrum, these guys are the steady presence you’re very glad to have nearby.
In November 2005, I took an AMTRAK Train from Tampa Union Station in Florida to Hamlet, North, Carolina to attend a Summer Convention of the ACL/SAL Historical Society in and around the Hamlet Area Hamlet Metro Area, One of the sites we visited was CSX Hump Classification Yard Hamlet.
Tower Mailing Address: 127 CSX Drive, Marks Creek, NC 28345"
This Yard is relies on Gravity, a Ladder of Switches and Speed Retarders to assemble trains destined for all parts of the US and Canada on an assortment of tracks, one track for each destination. or Intermediate Yard.In addition to the Posters & Signs, a no longer used caboose, now serves as a place for Safety Classes and Safety Signs.
These particular photographs show some of the Safety Alerting Signs all over the CSX Yard.
SAFETY is a BIG Concern in the Railroad Industry and Yards are particularly dangerous, not only due of all the traffic, but also particularly Coupling & Uncoupling Railcars, Trowing Switches, Checking the Bills of Lading for the contents being shipped,limited space, minimal Lines of Sight, setting & releasing Hand Brakes, etc. Lack of Attention, can be Fatal ! Consequently there are numerous Safety Signs, Classes, and Accident Tracking Billboards !

Accidents do happen and such unfortunate events are often beyond our control. But we do need to take all measures within our reach to avoid such tragedies as frequently in the future.
Swimming is NOT just a recreational sport for Maldivian children. It is a part of life and needs to be taught along with proper Water Safety and First Aid to school children of ALL ages. It is NOT an option. It is a matter of life and death!
Teach your child how to swim... TODAY!!
I hope these instructions are clear; please follow them carefully.
Saw this sign recently in the old grain elevator. Am thinking it would look very nice framed and hung on my bathroom wall.
