I had a 'photo shoot' afternoon with my friend's dog, Strider recently. The pics were for a doggy profile in The Orange Photo News, it was a fun afternoon as you can see.
On April 24th members of Local 2141, as well as members of Alexandria’s 38th Suppression Recruit Class, joined co-worker Monique Jackson-Asante and her family and friends to participate in the MDA’s Stride and Ride event at George Mason University. Local 2141 partnered with GMU’s Phi Kappa Alpha Fraternity to walk on behalf of Monique’s daughter Comfort who suffers from Myasthenia Gravis, a neuromuscular disease that causes muscle fatigue and weakness.

Female water striders seem to try to prevent males from mating with them. This female has flipped onto its back, and managed to escape from the male.
I assume this behaviour has evolved so that only the strong males get to mate.

Playing with macro and my extension tubes again. Went out in my backyard where there's a little stream and tried to get some close up shots of water striders. They don't stay still for you, so you kind of have to wait and shoot a lot. I did get a couple shots in focus but I liked this one best. I like how you can see the water tension on their legs. Again, it's pretty cool seeing this macro world close up so I'm definitely enjoying this little adventure into the world benieth us.

This is one of those little insects you see zooming across the top of ponds like skimmed stones. In the UK we often call them Pond Skaters, but they're also called Water Striders. This is a Common Pond Skater (Gerris lacustris). It has sensitive hairs on its legs that locate prey that have got caught in the water surface tension. It then grabs them with those short front legs and sucks out the poor insect's juices with a tough beak it has tucked underneath its body.
Hiryu, the youngest ever “Super A” ranked agent of an elite corps known as the Striders, returns in this action-packed new entry in the Strider franchise. For the first time in Strider history, players have access to the massive interconnected world of Kazakh City, which players can explore in any direction they choose. The traditional level structure has been replaced with a retraceable world and a deep ability upgrade system which enables Hiryu to build more power and abilities to penetrate ever deeper into the dystopian adventure.
