Thanks for looking! I appreciate feedback.
Today is a special night in Spain. The end of Christmas holidays is marked by the Three Kings Day, where all children are waiting for their gifts at night and before that, parades are held in all cities. This is a shot of the chariot of the House of Andalusia in Leganés, Madrid.
Comments are welcome! :)
OK. Second try. I've been taking photos all weekend and I think I found a style that I like. Inspired by Polywen and Trevor Claxton.
This is Allegra. She can actually stand without support as long as she is not carrying her third arm. In her full armament she can stand by her own as long as she can support herself on the third arm. I also figured out she can sit down without additional support. So I think I found one great pose with her sitting.

Contrary to it’s name the Three Armed Sloth is a marvel in speed, balance and neural augmentation. The battle armor suit protects the wearer from weapons damage but it also amplifies strength and keeps balance even in high speed and tricky terrain.
Neural connectors gets feed directly from the brain and the suit can therefore react in real time to the wearers moves. It can also feed data and stimulus back to the brain.
Mounted on the back of the suit is the real reason for it’s efficiency in combat. A robotic arm that can wield a multitude of weapons and mimics every move of the suit's right arm. This suit is armed with an Anti-Armor-Vibro-Sword that can cut through steel, stone and armed concrete like it’s made of paper.
On the other end of the robotic arm is the counter weight and the balancing machinery that keeps the suit in the right position and keeps the wearer from feeling any of the additional weight and momentum from the arm. Some arms have mounting points for additional weaponry, like the one seen here. A double barrel Auto-Target-Anti-Personnel-Rail-Gun tracks targets and feeds the results directly into the visual cortex of the wearer.
The wearer carries a "control pad". Shaped like a sword and weighted properly to make the feeling of swinging a sword feel more like the real thing. The controller is equipped with triggers for the various weaponry the suit carries.
Three.
Not Simply Three. But quite a complex number.

If things seem to be peaceful with two, be careful of the third entity that could come into play.

Three Japanese girls walking in the Shibuya neighborhood of Tokyo. One is wearing a polka dot dress with a wide belt and denim jacket. One is wearing a pink print tank top, black miniskirt, heart necklance, and thigh high stockings. The third is wearing a short black leather jacket, blue dress, black leggings, and carrying a silver studded purse.
I give these lilies absolutely no help in thriving and yet for the past 23 years they have given me beauty.

Three years ago yesterday my calendar went on sale locally! You can see the email I received below:
"Hi Jane,
I work for a calendar design company in the UK called Infocado and we are currently looking for contributing photographers.
I came across your lovely photographs of Portsmouth and I think they could be potentials for the Portsmouth calendar, all you have to do to is upload them to our group..."
The downside was I didn't get a penny for the calendars sold (part of the agreement), but the upside was every photo in that calendar was mine! And I was sent 3 free copies!!
(This is a shot I uploaded at the time, but never made public)
Wall art in Glastonbury. Not sure what it's all about but it's very quirky and perfect for the 'Three' theme in 7 Days of Shooting group! (Photographed on an evening walk through the town)
For: 7 Days of Shooting. Week #12. Three - Whatever, But Three. Shoot Anything Saturday.
Thank you to everyone who takes the time to view my photo and make a comment or fave. Your thoughts are much appreciated.
I thought these three doors looks peculiar... a place to go ask Alice about!

Volunteers help community smile

CAMP CASEY, South Korea – For most volunteers in Korea, when they return to the states they will have the satisfaction of knowing they helped others in their community and may have been formally recognized for it.
But, for three Area I volunteers, they will take with them a new-found skill set they can use the rest of their lives.
They have just completed the American Red Cross Dental Assistant Education Program at the Camp Casey Dental Clinic Aug. 3. In January, when the clinic announced that they were offering the program for a second time more than 40 volunteers applied. Six were chosen and only three successfully completed the 100 hours of classroom study and the minimum 500 hours of clinical work.
“During their past six months of volunteering, they have worked hard,” said Dr. (Capt.) Francis Nahm, a dentist at the clinic and the education program director.
“It was a lot of information combined into a few weeks,” said Jessica Medlin, one of the three graduates who had almost 550 volunteer hours in the clinic. “It was kind of nerve racking having to go home and study and try to remember all of this information that they have given you. But it ended up being very easy by how they taught it.”
Their first two weeks in the program are spent immersed in classes on basic anatomy, medical terminology and health care ethics, as well as general dentistry and dentistry instrument layouts.
“In the 100 hours they have to learn, memorize and understand the physiology and bio chemistry of the body,” said Nahm. “Then they move onto dental, the oral facial area, then they go to the teeth and then the gum. There is a lot of terminology, just terminology after terminology for them to learn.”
“When we first started the class I didn’t know how I was going to remember it all, but they showed us diagrams of the teeth and other stuff and eventually it just clicked,” said Cimone Langley-Hopkins, who had been studying criminology at California State University, Fresno, prior to coming to Korea. She thought that this program could help in the forensic field if teeth impressions were needed to identify a criminal.
“It was a good thing having the doctors as our instructors, because this is their job and they know everything,” said Langley-Hopkins, whose husband, Pfc. Alexander Hopkins is in Company C, 3rd Battalion, 37th Field Artillery Regiment, 210th Fires Brigade. “Anytime we didn’t understand something in the book they would take us into the operatory and show us there.”
Once the volunteers passed the classroom final exam they moved to the operatory, for the observation portion of the program. During this time they watched the actions of and assisted an already qualified dental assistant. Once the doctors were satisfied with the volunteers’ work, they became the primary assistant and participated in everything from dental exams to oral surgery.
“Although they are volunteers, they are considered part of our team,” said Nahm. He said that since the volunteers are not pulled from the clinic for other tasks as military dental assistants are, the clinic is able to continue to see patients, which is a benefit for the clinic and Area I.
The benefits for the volunteer students are numerous. One is the cost. The Camp Casey program is free; a similar program taught at a civilian facility would cost $6,000 to $8,000 according to Nahm. Another benefit for them is the certificate they received upon completion of the program.
“When they finish we validate their total hours with the Red Cross,” said Nahm. “That certificate is honored as a dental assistant certificate and is transferable to a civilian certificate.”
Medlin, Langley-Hopkins and Hui Gibbs (who graduated early when her husband who was a contractor left Korea) are looking forward to getting jobs in a dental clinic when they return stateside.
Medlin knows that having the specialized skills of a dental assistant will give her job opportunities when she follows her husband, Pfc. Daniel Medlin, of Company B, 304th Signal Battalion, to Fort Huachuca, Ariz., this fall. While in Arizona she plans on getting an associate degree in health care management so that one day she can be a clinic’s head dental assistant.
“I still want to pursue my degree in the criminal justice field,” said Langley-Hopkins, who finished the program with over 600 volunteer hours. “But for right now the career path that I have decided to take is in the dental field.”
