As the days went on the invasion of the foreigners became more and more apparent.

 

Kai and Kaze decided to walk the streets to attempt to protect the locals from the wrath and greed that the foreigners were raining down on those less fortunate daily.

 

As they exited the shop they found exactly what they were looking for. Demon Dodge, Evil Emil, and Fleetin' Ethan were all three ready for them.

 

Quickly they nodded to one another and Kaze took off at a run. He leaped into the air as he was trained to do, his legs taking on the crane formation. His face was determined, angry even. With his youth, it was normal for him to be a hothead, but in times like this, it wasn't a bad thing. His anger would fuel him.

 

Kai on the other hand took a protective stance, his eyes hard, cold, and calculating. He'd get the two that were left, his sword sliced the air with a speed that was unmatched by his opponents.

 

Demon Dodge's eyes blazed with determination, his blades at the ready in a stance that was typical to those that were not of this place.

 

Evil Emil, known to be the most twisted of them, had a look on his face of sheer glee at the blood fray that was about to ensue. It was known that he took delight in others' pain and even their deaths.

 

All that Kai could think is, "they do not belong" as he struck out finally at his enemy. His heritage, his training, his composure was second to none of his age, his eyes shone black in the night, colorless during the day. Only this time, they were cold as black ice running down your spine.

 

The battle would begin, but where would it end?

Veenpark Barger Compascuum

This Sulphur-crested Cockatoo was not at all happy to find a Brush-tail Possum with joey hanging around near its nesting hollow. Shortly after this, the cocky gave Mother Possum a head butt on the backside, which caused quite a ruckus!

(Badly out of focus but managed to retrieve something which is just about presentable.)

This was taken on 16th January 2015 at my local dark spot Turf Hill

 

Guided on the stars for 2 min subs, i grabbed 36 mins worth, really think i should have guided on the actual comet tho to grab a more dramatic tail.

 

Not sure when ill try another comet, not really my cup of tea....they are buggers to process

 

I used my usual gear to capture this....

Here is some info about Lovejoy...

 

C/2014 Q2 (Lovejoy) is a long-period comet discovered on 17 August 2014 by Terry Lovejoy using a 0.2-meter (8 in) Schmidt–Cassegrain telescope.[2] It was discovered at apparent magnitude 15 in the southern constellation of Puppis.[2] It is the fifth comet discovered by Terry Lovejoy. Its blue-green color is the result of cyanogen and diatomic carbon being burned off the comet as it passes through space.

 

By December 2014, the comet had brightened to roughly magnitude 7.4,[5] making it a small telescope and binoculars target. By mid-December, the comet was visible to the naked eye for experienced observers with dark skies and keen eyesight.[6] On 28−29 December 2014, the comet passed 1/3° from globular cluster Messier 79.[7] In January 2015, it brightened to roughly magnitude 4,[8] and became one of the brightest comets located high in a dark sky in years. On 7 January 2015, the comet passed 0.469 AU (70,200,000 km; 43,600,000 mi) from Earth.[9] It crossed the celestial equator on 9 January 2015 becoming better seen from the northern hemisphere.[10] The comet came to perihelion (closest approach to the Sun) on 30 January 2015 at a distance of 1.29 AU (193,000,000 km; 120,000,000 mi) from the Sun.[3]

 

Before entering the planetary region (epoch 1950), C/2014 Q2 had an orbital period of about 11000 years.[4] After leaving the planetary region (epoch 2050), it will have an orbital period of about 8000 years.

When I took these pictures I was sure they were young bull elk as I've never seen a Mule Deer in Jasper. Also there were several elk along the road. Once I put the pictures on my computer, I was convinced that these are definitely not elk but deer. Either way, this is the first time seeing wildlife fighting.

CMQ 9020 & CMQ 9011 are hom home turf as they sit at the east end of Farnham yard a bit after sunset. They will be picked up CP 142 a bit later and head east.

Hofskirkja Church built in 1884

Grafarkirkja is the oldest turf church in Iceland. Parts of the church dates back to the 17th century but the oldest account of the church dates back to 1240 and can be found in Sturlungasaga. Only a handful of turf churches can still be found around Iceland.

SCFE FPT-16 w/ USSC 6323 & USSC 6321

Near Skógafoss in the village of Skógar, southern Iceland.

The bedroom dates from 1838, storehouse from 1830, pantry from about 1850, kitchen from about 1880, baðstofa (communal room where the household slept, ate and worked) from 1895, parlour from 1896, cattle shed from about 1880, smithy from about 1950.

Nature and wildlife meets the city, concrete and people.

 

People are sometimes astounded to see wildlife in urban areas, however, animals and birds have always lived in the areas where we built our cities. My friend Delbert Charging Crow, carved a beautiful stone spirit fox for me and taught me a beautiful Lakota prayer. The prayer ends with the Lakota words; "Mitakuye Oyasin", "We are all related "

Reflections.

The river Ant was actually quite rough, but using a variable ND filter smoothed it to a mirror finish.

I was taking a few photos of the mourning dove as the blue jay entered the frame squawking at the dove to drive it away. The dove was startled, puffed up and flew away.

 

I thought it was interesting bird behavior.

 

Thanks in advance for taking your time to view my photos and leave comments for favs!
