#2 in the series of confessions. Soon, I might actually confess something no one knows. I'll think about it. haha

 

"When I first saw you

I knew that I'd never forget

This moment in time

Justa smile and you took away my heart

I never knew that my life would change

I never knew that I'd feel this way

Baby, believed me I'm right

Won't try to fight

This feelings inside I can't hide

 

I think I love You

This I am sure

Coz I miss you

Each time that you go

 

The things in my heart

The things that i say

are things that are true all the way

 

I've fallen for you

I'll never let go

Coz I need you

You're the light in my sorrow

THe things in my heart

The things that i say

are things that are true all the way

I love you

 

The days passed, I woke up

my heart, shot by an arrow

I go on my way

The sun shining everyday

Like, there's no tomorrow

 

I promise with you I will stay

If you tell me you'd be with me too

say yah do

we're meant for each other

I always believe that we do

the way my world brightens

whenever you're with me I know..."

When I think of sand dunes and photography, I think black and white. The natural white environment coupled with shadow areas is just made for B/W interpretation. Here are my attempts to capture the beauty of White Sands National Park in this medium. Most are shot in hard light, but some are early or late in the day, some even approach high key. White Sands looks great in any wardrobe.

 

In late October, I made a trip to New Mexico to shoot the dunes at White Sands National Park. I hooked up with my close friend and photographer, Sandra Herber. www.flickr.com/photos/sandraherber/ We were at White Sands four days, made eight excursions into the dunes, hiked over 20 miles and shot close to 2,000 photos between us.

 

We are posting our images at the same time and it will be interesting to see how we handled being in the same locations together. For safety reasons and for the fun of it, we hiked the dunes together, sometimes pointing our lenses in the same direction, other times wandering apart. I am sure we got some similar shots, but it will be interesting to see those that are different as we each have our own way of looking at things, as well as having different focal length coverage. Then there is the processing aspect.

 

To say White Sands is magical is an understatement. As photographers, we talk about the light, emphasize the light, are critical about the light. The dunes at White Sands react in amazing ways to the change in light, offering different looks, revealing various personalities. It is this diversity of the dunes that I wanted to capture then, and present here now.

I think I may have to renounce the people in my life who turn up their nose at me because they think I've become a bit 'flighty' lately. This is a ridiculous accusation.

 

I was always flighty, the fact that they understood such a core characteristic after such a long time makes me see them in a whole new light. The light is significantly dimmer in voltage.

It’s been a lot of years since the Yellow Pages were pink and in this day of online access to everything you thought were important, even the yellow ones may eventually pass into history. But this wonderful pink door at West End in Brisbane caught my attention some time back. The house had been recently renovated and it was very fetching!

 

West End, Brisbane. For TDD, door Thursday.

The Pink Ribbon is the international symbol of hope for women with breast cancer.

Pink Ribbon has chosen Rachael Chatoor's "Standing All The Way" as the Pink Ribbon song of 2008. Rachael composed the song as a token of support for survivors and for people who have moved on, yet lived strong and well and full of love, life, and hope, while fighting cancer of any kind.

I think I may have been a moth in a past life, as a photographer I'm always attracted to the light...

I think I've created a monster! Shantel hadn't shot in about 20 years until we hooked up and now it's like we're shooting 1-2 times a month. I'm not complaining at all - she gets better and more comfortable at each shoot. This shoot she started off wearing flannel and then tried on a fun coat that she fell in love with. We ended up in a chicken coop. Don't ask. We did this shoot in late November and it was definitely cold outside. The things we do for art!

On Wednesday mornings Sam and I watch 25 homeschoolers and help them with their lessons. It is so sweet to see Sam help the younger kids. She is so patient with them.

 

This is one of the little girls that is part of the program. She is one of my favorite kids. She is spunky and smart. She loves sports and loves life.

If you think about it, this funny-looking coat and hat rack makes a lot of sense. Unlike smaller, more pointed hangers, the balls won't distort or mark your clothing items...or worse--tear the fabric if the clothing item is quite heavy.

In my album: Dan's Funny Stuff.

A phrase worth considering

“I sit beside the fire and think

Of all that I have seen

Of meadow flowers and butterflies

In summers that have been

 

Of yellow leaves and gossamer

In autumns that there were

With morning mist and silver sun

And wind upon my hair

 

I sit beside the fire and think

Of how the world will be

When winter comes without a spring

That I shall ever see

 

For still there are so many things

That I have never seen

In every wood in every spring

There is a different green

 

I sit beside the fire and think

Of people long ago

And people that will see a world

That I shall never know."

~J.R.R. Tolkien

 

Feeling introspective today, and filled with wanderlust.

 

Check out this link, I've been featured on Photography Blogger! www.photographyblogger.net/20-enchanting-photos-from-heat...

The National Wallace Monument on Abbey Craig above the Carse of Stirling in Scotland was erected in memory of Scotland's greatest hero, Sir William Wallace, who, in 1297 at the Battle of Stirling Bridge defeated the English army and "sent them homewards to think again".

I think I've seen this photo a few times somewhere before from other people. I finally discovered it on the trail to Franklin Falls today. Definitely stood out among the trees with it's barn red color. If I were the home owner, though, I might get rid of that tree blocking the third from right window....

I think I posted this last year. I briefly adopted Piper, but a slightly psychotic border collie proved too much for me. She now lives with a friend with a larger house and yard. And 40 years of dog experience. I see Piper on a regular basis. She loves a carrot after every meal.

 

This mom Nutria has 3 juveniles, they are so fun and even mom is funny, let post few photos of her in a serie called one day / one Nutria. You can click on a photo to watch it with a better resolution.

 

ps : to my mind, Rodin made is famous sculpture after watching a Nutria

A light and agile battle tank, the Raptor is 23 studs long and finished! Sinc I last posted, I redesigned the hatches, moved the turret foreward, added mudguards, extended the skirt the full length of the treads, and reworked the front and back ends. I think I'm ready to move on, but this is one of those MOCs that will stay together a long time. Yay Tank!

i think we all feel like that sometimes... like we can't breath either literally (in my case) or metaphorically. how many times has each of us had our creativity stifled or our voices dulled by life or those around us?

some learn to live with it and some break free!

The pool in Trilogy at Vistancia.

Think of me when you cross this path, and one day when I'm here I will think of you... and that's how we'll meet.

   

I don't think I've uploaded this shot before. If you know otherwise, let me know.

 

This was from my trip to San Antonio. My first abandoned building outing. It was fun.

 

It was also the first day that I used my new DSLR. Goodbye, sweet girl, I will miss you.

 

And f** the asshole that stole it from me!

I've just founded a new group www.flickr.com/groups/think-extract where I will discuss daily all the hidden, sublime messages, we are able to discover in photographies - if we think - and make the effort, to use language and describe elaborated; I would be glad, if you would have the interest to join, discussing, reading ...

Heeeeey Flickr!

I think I'm the only one who likes the new flickr?! Maybe because it's just the same as the smart phone app version so I'm used to it!

Anyways, this was an extra shot from a conceptual shoot this evening which I loved! Lots of editing to do tonight...

 

I think it's clear that Linus isn't fond of the neighbour's dogs. They are noisy and they don't leave any doubt that they hate cats. For some reason all four of them tend to ignore Cleo completely whereas they bark and growl and behave like crazy whenever they see one of the boy cats. Linus prefers to stay at a safe distance, always near the cat flap which allows him to disappear in the house in case one the dogs should one day manage to climb over the fence.
