Dedicated to my good friend Mike ! a.k.a. MJC
Relationships of ownership
They whisper in the wings
To those condemned to act accordingly
And wait for succeeding kings
And I try to harmonize with songs
The lonesome sparrow sings
There are no kings inside the Gates of Eden
The foreign sun, it squints upon
A bed that is never mine
As friends and other strangers
From their fates try to resign
Leaving men wholly, totally free
To do anything they wish to do but die
And there are no trials inside the Gates of Eden
Bob Dylan . Gates of Eden
A couple different thoughts come to mind while looking at this shot. All of them provoked by the eye squint. Is he squinting to lower the amount of light his eye lets in, so he can see further into a dark space? Or is it a safety habit in case something were to jump out? Or could it be a squint of intense precision to not break away the bark from his highly engineered food source? Hmmmmm?

I can't wait for the sun to go down
Tired of squinting at this ugly little town
I can't wait for that moon to shine
She's my friend, always been, you can see it in my eyes
(...)
Here's one I found in the file-pile.
I saw this funny little beast while doing a hike near Mt. Baker a couple summers ago.
Here we see Dill, eye barely open, her head on pale Nutmeg, and tuxedo Nigel, backed up in view on the right- Cat Pile!!
Happy Caturday - "Something in the Eyes"
first shot only grabbed his front half, but it was pretty sharp, sadly this is the best I can offer. I guess I can hope to see him again someday under better circumstances, hope he wasn't just passing through...
She's giving me the stink eye! These eiders are good sized ducks, but their eyes seem small and they are teardrop/almond shaped, so, to me, they look like they are squinting all the time. This individual swam close to me as it moved through a shallow area of the lagoon.
Let's play pretend... If you squint just a bit, you don't even notice the shadow from the motor in in front or the stickers in the windows. Say what you want about the design, but seeing a pair of matching freshly painted E units back-to-back is pretty fucking cool.
There is a lot to dislike for many people during Minnesota winters. As you get older and more vulnerable, walking on snowy and icy parking lots can quickly become a life-changing event.
But there are some positive aspects as well as illustrated by the surreal foggy landscape interrupted by two dots of eagles high on a tree squinting for unfortunate prey scurrying across the snow below.
me drinking my morning smoothie. i'm not really angry here, just squinting in the sun. Despite my pissed off mug, I still love the lighting in this shot.
I have wanted to get this location for such a long time after seeing images from the likes of Trevor Cotton and Spencer Brown and an opportunity arose over the weekend that I couldn't turn down, high tide at sunset!!
I arrived on location only to struggle finding the entry point for the forshore this gem sits on, 10 minutes later and some local hash heads gave the game away, after being told it was a 5 - 10 minute walk by the above mention weed smokers I arrive 32 minutes later......with the sun setting behind a bank of cloud.......gutted, so what was a promising bit of light and I end up on a recce!
I still really struggle with LE's at this time of day due to the ever changing light! Give me a grey day and I'm good, but sunrise or sunset and I start to have issues!
Anyway, after a fair bit of time sat at the PC, this is the end result from that recce and to be fair, Im fairly pleased with it! I would love feedback from the people that know this location as I feel there are issues with my editing!
360 Seconds of LE goodness here!
I found it amusing how this nice butterfly seemed to be staring at me ... I just had to "portray" it
One of the original buildings at the Britannia Shipyard.... peering back at me.
(Not to be a pane, but if you're board and batten around ideas, this looks a little knottier if you hit "L" to view Large....)

Hard to see behind tree Black Widow F-Unit helper assist Sparks-Roseville for SDP45 3200 up on the point CoSF 1968. A good day at Black Rock.
Usually, "Big Red" and the other males seem to always be squinting their eyes.
The little female's eyes are usually wide open.
Since, I like that look better,
I tend to spend more time trying to get shots of her.
He has started hanging around her a lot more as mating season (February-March) approaches.
Yesterday, they were together feeding on Choke Cherries along the river bank that some flocks of Robins knocked down while they were feeding on them.
When I first came to Alaska back in 1976, you almost never saw any Robins.
Now, I see flocks of 35 plus Robins in the trees feeding on berries.
Being from Michigan where the Robin is the State Bird,
I kind of missed seeing them.
Now, they are everywhere.
Amazing how things change.
