This is a test.

I still feel new to this 'parenting' thing, in some ways... there are still 'firsts' to yet be experienced and this is one of them. This photo was taken a short while after hearing from my teen son, who is getting into dating, that he asked a girl he knows to be his girlfriend today... she said yes.

I do wonder how this will go for him. I know dating can be fun, but too it can lead to heartbreak. I think I have prepped him in some ways... told him that between now and adult life he will probably date many so don't look at this one as the only one... it is very likely only the start. Too... I don't want him to be too fickle and not take time to get to know people ... I don't want him to be the one that dates many and comits to no one. I hope he can find the middle ground... and be a decent person to those he chooses to date and spend time with. I think hubby and I have set good examples.

This is still in use as part of an everglades research center

This photo was shot in raw. Added the day lighting. looks better!

This was in the remote fields of Pangasinan along a dirt road when the cloud formation struck me as a hand catching grace coming from the heavens.

This is a new flowering plant of native Hemp Dogbane aka Indian Hemp (Apocynum cannabinum) in the Apocynaceae plant family. That's hemp as in fiber, not smoking. It's an uncommon plant in our mountains - I only know it from a few places. I wish the photo was taken in some uncommon habitat, but I found this one growing from a crack in the old asphalt of Kinevan Road! (San Marcos Pass, 6 June 2013)

This was one of the most important native plants for the native American Chumash in our mountains - for string, rope, nets, and clothing. For more info, see Jan Timbrook's book on Chumash Ethnobotany (2007).

This is our new Farmington, UT home. I promised some pictures, so here they are! Finally!

This was taken by Stephen Lin with Quixotic Style.

Compare this professional photograph of me in my makeup and all glammed up with this photo of me taken by my mom while I was sick with the allergies:

this one had a sign called "low class dwelling" or something. clearly they didn't put too much effort into restoring this one

This was a great place to come for breakfast. I was starting to think Launceston had been a total waste of time but Stillwater revived my hope that every pocket of Tasmania might contain some foodie gem. We had a great table up the back and watched a sleepy stretch of river while we ate some really great food.

This is the last one.... I promise :) 5 pictures of one shoot is enough. Same model, same location.

eventhough I love mangostin,i couldn't drink this.

I finished two quick sewing projects yesterday. Two hours or so and $9 of awesome remnant linen gave me a new set of napkins and yet another pillowcase.

....everything else is either the past or the future

This is Will's sign saying no hitting, pinching or biting.

this is a composite of two shots, taken at the Portland zoo, sealion grotto. I've gotten the impression on flickr that it's sort of immoral or cheating to do this...oh, well. Here's one from the dark side. :)

This much white we had not seen during Winter this year.

This is what Trump dreams, women running through his hair.

This covers the Rare Pervis Eureka that were sold in Australia.

This is awful .... I came across this shot from some years ago and now can't remember where I took it - decided I like the contrasts, so didn't delete it!

This cutie was bouncing about my kitchen. I approached in a calm, authoritative fashion, while speaking softly, and convinced it that I was not malevolent. Twenty minutes after release, I was in the back yard and it returned, scrutinizing me at a distance ranging from 5 to 15 feet for a period of 4 to 5 minutes.

**Its plumage is best appreciated in the 'large' size.**

Life is good.

A bit of research shows it to be a female Calliope Hummingbird.

This was originally a color photo. I converted it to black and white, emphasizing the contrast of light and shadow. Downtown Portland, Oregon.

This is the campground at Honeymoon Pool where we stayed. Nice enough, i guess

This is the lighting for this shot of a Platy Fry.

Strobist: Gemini 4700 at 1/32 power, on stand above tank to camera right, zoomed "tight" pointed directly at the corner of the net, triggered w/GI Remote Triggers. A Sunpak 383 super at 1/16 power with a DIY grid spot was added to light my daughter's face. See the "poor man's" macro shot here.

This is the town hall 'Falla', The Moises, this falla is for all the people from Valencia and is out of fallas tournament. All of them will be burned tomorrow so is a short life time!

This is what I worked on ALL DAY yesterday! Tons & tons of cake pops. So easy to do & fun, fun, fun to make!!!!! Sparrow Blue was a little upset that I wouldn't let her eat one!!!!

Cake Pops are basically cake on a stick with chocolate candy coating & decorations. THEY TASTE SOOOOO GOOD!!!!

Here's a link on how to make them. Try them out!!! Time consuming but so much fun!

This is the group icon people.....

Variegated Meadowhawk (Sympetrum corruptum) - The Blind Trail (Ranger Station), Sandy Hook National Seashore, Fort Hancock, New Jersey

This guy is a rarity for New Jersey and was the first one posted to BugGuide from the tristate¹ area.

¹ Tristade area - A traffic radio nickname for the NYC (New York City) commuter zone which includes parts of New Jersey, Connecticut, and New York. However, it's not all that uncommon for eastern Pennsylvanians to ride interstate 78 the entire width of New Jersey to work in the Wall Street area of lower Manhattan, so there were also numerous Pennsylvanians (Eastonians) that died on 9/11.

This Golden Age beauty gets attention at the hangar of the Champaign Air Museum.

This mango tree at the Ka’awa Loa Plantation constantly dropped mangoes while we were there.

This is the old RKO Studio which is know part of Paramount Studio.

This was a great dolly delivery day, as I received all these in the mail. :)

So, be decadent. Indulge.

I think this body hugging shiny silver lycra spandex romper from coquetryclubwear.com clings perfectly to all my curves and reveals my legs in all their glory!

I hope you like how it shows off my assets!
