Taken along Mana Road, Big Island, Hawaii.
I was actually sitting in my truck when I shot this. I'd been out of the truck, taking shots of these and other horses and cows, and as I was driving away, this friendly horse stuck his nose right in my open passenger-side window.
All three of the shots seen in this upload have had their resolutions increased.

This house is located right next to Gripsholm Castle. I thought it had great symmetry, and as is usually the case, symmetry stands out even more in a photograph. There's something direful about the three doors – three choices that appear the same but may yield vastly different consequences.
Three of my chickens check out the camera.

...are better than none. It also helps to have the entire instrument!

I use these for home recording and they are my weapons of choice for mangling and defiling many of my favorite songs.
You can hear them in action HERE as well as the MOST dangerous weapon I have....my vocals!
I took my son James and his wife Steph to a wedding today and hung around for a little while to catch some photos! I managed to get the 3 bridesmaids which helped with today's challenge!
Our Daily Challenge ~ Three ....
Thanks, in advance, to everyone who views this photo, adds a note, leaves a comment and of course BIG thanks to anyone who chooses to favourite my photo .... thanks to you all.
Three is for meeeeeeee!
I hate taking photos of myself. Usually because I have a lopsided smile/sticky out chin/double chin*
So anyway, this is indeed me (camera in way of said chin, of course) - a very quick shot due to cling-on-non-napping-small-child!
January 6 - We celebrate the Three Kings Day or the feast of the Epiphany. It is the Christian celebration of the revelation of the birth of Jesus to the wider world. This is embodied most in the story of three wise men visiting a newborn Jesus with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh as told in the Gospel of Matthew 2:1-12.
Three little maids from school are we
Pert as a school-girl well can be
Filled to the brim with girlish glee
Three little maids from school
Everything is a source of fun
Nobody's safe, for we care for none
Life is a joke that's just begun
Three little maids from school
Three little maids who, all unwary
Come from a ladies' seminary
Freed from its genius tutelary
Three little maids from school
Three little maids from school
Dirty Three live at Queen Festival Hall. Really fun ancedotes through the show including the one about being stuck in your own room in Butlins. Good times
On the train's namesake trestle, which crosses over the Holston River within sight of its confluence with the French Broad to form the Tennessee, the Three Rivers Rambler brings a Santa train into Marbledale just before sunset.
This is the closest thing I have to Christmas decorations. I'm not against the holiday: my husband and I just don't decorate. Saves on cleaning up later. :)
When we lived in Connecticut, we had the loveliest neighbors. Dieter and Linda grew up in Germany during WWII--in what became East Germany. Somehow, they managed to be in West Germany at the right time. Dieter trained as a baker, Linda as a seamstress. Eventually, they ended up in Connecticut and owned a very successful bakery. They had long retired by the time we moved in next door. When we moved to California, they gave us this lovely little set of angels, which came from Germany.
Dieter and Linda are some of the best people you could get to know. And not just for the baked goods.
Happy Holidays to all my Flickr friends! Because of the upcoming holidays, I will be off and on Flickr--probably more off. So take care, and I will catch up in the New Year!
Three Lalylala dolls from the patterns by Lydia Tresselt. Lupine is the latest. She worked up a bit larger than the other two, probably due to the bobble stitches to make her fleecy body. I used Knit Picks Palette in bark for her skin, and Knit Picks Stroll in mocha tonal for the body.
I have bought myself a number of books this past few days and I am really excited. But can't really start reading them, it's kind of hard holding it with one hand.

The Three Sisters are three volcanic peaks of the Cascade Volcanic Arc and the Cascade Range in Oregon, each exceeding 10,000 feet (3,000 m) in elevation. They are the third, fourth, and fifth highest peaks in the state of Oregon and are located in the Three Sisters Wilderness, about 15 miles (24 km) southwest from the nearest town of Sisters.
South and Middle Sister do not require any rock climbing skills to ascend. South Sister in particular is a well known "first mountain" for many people. Although it does not require any technical skills or much in the way of mountaineering knowledge, many environmental dangers remain the same, and rescue operations are common during the climbing season. Jon Krakauer. writer of Into Thin Air, has frequently noted South Sister as his inspiration for getting into mountaineering. In his admissions essay to Amherst College, he mentioned that his interest in alpinism "really grew by the time [he] was eight and climbed the South Sister in Oregon".
Three army gal pals have their photo taken at the Tonga Room of the Fairmont Hotel, San Francisco, California. The photo is stamped with the date June 14, 1951. Two of these members of the Women's Army Corps wear identifiable shoulder patches. The WAC in the center wears a post-war First Army patch. The one on the right wears a Sixth Army patch.
The occasion must have been a farewell party for the woman in the middle. There is no clue to the identity of the WAC in the center, but the two on either end have scribbled short notes of affection, along with their names, on the margins of the photo's frame.
On the left:
"Pfc. Rose M. Gauthard (Rosa Lee)
May this night be a memorable one to you."
And on the right:
"Hope we never part but if we do I'll think of you.
Pvt. Betty Fields"
Manufacturer/Model: Leitz Wetzlar, Bidoxit 6X30
Field of View: 8.5 deg = 149 m/1,000 m; APFOV 51 deg
Weight: 482 gr
Exit Pupil: 5 mm
Serial #/Year of Manufacture: 590369, estimate manufactured late 1950’s – early 1960’s
Notes: The Leitz Bidoxit 6X30 was introduced in 1927 and manufactured until 1962 when Leitz discontinued all of its Porro prism models in favor on the roof prism Trinovids.
This is a superb binocular and beyond doubt one of the best performing 6X30’s in the collection. Its build appears identical to that of the Leitz Binuxit 8X30 (see www.flickr.com/photos/46330704@N08/6329313798/in/photolis... ) except the Binuxit has wide-angle three lens oculars while the Bidoxit 6X30 has two lens ones. Both binoculars have the same actual fields of view and both were introduced and discontinued the same years. The Binuxit is a better known and more popular binocular and today on eBay will usually sell for at least twice that of a Bidoxit. And truth be told if I could have only one binocular and had to choose between the two, it would be the Binuxit because the 8X30 offers an extra 2X magnification with an otherwise very similar view. However, the Bidoxit does have certain advantages over its big and more famous brother: 1) Most importantly, under normal daylight conditions the view is slightly but still noticeably brighter because of greater light transmission due to its simpler ocular design i.e. only four air-glass surfaces in the two lens Bidoxit ocular as opposed to six in the three lens Binuxit ocular. Also under low light conditions the Bidoxit’s view would be a little brighter due to its larger exit pupil. 2) 6X binoculars are less affected by shake giving a steadier image. And 3) The Bidoxit is about 30 grams lighter. The Bidoxit does excel for backyard viewing where distances aren’t too great and binocular magnification not critical . And during the 1920’s – 1930’s before the introduction of anti-reflective coated optics, I suspect the superior light transmitting qualities of the Bidoxit would have been more apparent and the model would have been more popular then than it was after WW II.
Included with the binocular tucked away at the bottom of the case was an United States “Import Certificate”, the first of these I have seen. See View 2: www.flickr.com/photos/binocwpg/9439060390/in/photostream/ .

I will say this, I like shooting at 1600mm but you'd be surprised how difficult it can be to find something as large as the moon (or even the sun) when you're playing with such a narrow field of view.
