I don't know how imminent hatching is but thought there may be some movement today but no, possibly in the next day or two hopefully.
One of my friends commented that trees didn't change colorfully where she lives, so before all the leaves dropped off the trees here in Dallas, Laurel and I took a few photos for her. This is the oak outside our bedroom window, taken from the ground below.
This is where the Unanderra-Moss Vale line heads through the gap, leaving the side of the escarpment and its panoramic views as it continues the 1 in 30 compensated climb.

Cut on the bandsaw three times using using a sliding jig, then glued back together including a 2mm veneer.
A shot from the upper saloon on English Electric 1934 built Balloon car 717, as the waves crash onto the promenade in the distance we bare left off the main line onto the turning circle at Little Bispham, with what is now a service to the Pleasure Beach, during the heritage Santa Special event.

Beauty salon on Chestnut Street in Meadville, Pennsylvania. Maybe the building owner at the time got a buy one, get one deal on those screens.

On turning ten...
The whole idea of it makes me feel
like I'm coming down with something,
something worse than any stomach ache
or the headaches I get from reading in bad light--
a kind of measles of the spirit,
a mumps of the psyche,
a disfiguring chicken pox of the soul.
You tell me it is too early to be looking back,
but that is because you have forgotten
the perfect simplicity of being one
and the beautiful complexity introduced by two.
But I can lie on my bed and remember every digit.
At four I was an Arabian wizard.
I could make myself invisible
by drinking a glass of milk a certain way.
At seven I was a soldier, at nine a prince.
But now I am mostly at the window
watching the late afternoon light.
Back then it never fell so solemnly
against the side of my tree house,
and my bicycle never leaned against the garage
as it does today,
all the dark blue speed drained out of it.
This is the beginning of sadness, I say to myself,
as I walk through the universe in my sneakers.
It is time to say good-bye to my imaginary friends,
time to turn the first big number.
It seems only yesterday I used to believe
there was nothing under my skin but light.
If you cut me I could shine.
But now when I fall upon the sidewalks of life,
I skin my knees. I bleed.

Part of Maine's Pushaw Lake viewed while banking the aircraft slightly to induce a gentle turn. It's interesting to see how the bog (middle right) has crept partly across the lake and now almost surrounds some of the tree-covered islands. Also the reflections of the sun on the water give the lake the appearance of a very finely grained texture, which reminds me of the Mediterranean viewed from the Cote d'Azur in the South of France.
Thanks for looking!

Well it was not really - what we were doing was a holding pattern in a very long que to get into LHR after a long boring trip back from LAX.
This is a shot out of an Airbus A340-600 belonging to Virgin Atlantic.
They had done good job and I was suitably impressed with the stretched version of this well established long distant favourite.

Quizas...Inspirado en un torso humano girando sobre sí mismo.
Diecinueve bloques cúbicos idénticos, uno sobre otro, apuntando en todas direcciones. Tiene una altura de 14 metros asemeja a una escalera en movimiento, girando sobre un eje principal que convierte al hormigón en materia ligero, casi volátil.
Local revolutionary committees are encouraging Libyans to turn in their weapons and those they're scavenging from fallen regime security buildings. In the courtyard of one former prison near the corniche road in Benghazi, they have collected assault and anti-tank rifles, mounted anti-aircraft guns and other heavy weaponry.
This was my best birthday ever! Turning ten wahoo! My first pair of blue jeans, cool top, disco party…what else does a ten year old need?
This was the first birthday I thought of...
The Wilson River Highway, OR 6, is a 48-mile rural road that connects Banks and Tillamook. It's a popular route for tourists and an important commercial connection between the Oregon Coast and the Portland metro area. In recent years, safety has become an increasing concern for the local communities and people who use this route.
My first Oregon wedding that I wasn't paid to shoot...and it was a rollicking good time, to put it mildly!
This is my friend Ara. As I said in my toast at her reception, she was the first person in Oregon I was introduced to, and she hugged me and welcomed me into her home and was determined to be my friend. I was determined to hate her, as I suspected she was trying to seduce my boyfriend by laying suggestively on logs at secluded waterfalls at undisclosed locations around the PNW. (You may all laugh now at that entire commentary.) Instead, a surprisingly unlikely friendship grew. I'm still not entirely sure what we have in common, outside of photography, an ever-increasing number of matching clothing items, and a need to shimmy once in a while, but I suppose one needn't dissect a friendship for it to be legitimate. People who know Ara and people who know ME are probably still scratching their heads as to how we hit it off. I say it's a testament to her ability to disarm anyone, greet the world with enthusiasm, and when I got here, I needed friends, and Ara signed up - and now can't get rid of me.
In fact, not only can she not get rid of me, we're officially vacation buddies, traveling around the west coast and Southwest together, and I work for Ara as a wedding photographer. Usually on a Saturday afternoon she and I would be working our asses off, running around with our gear. Instead, this past Saturday, Ara found herself glued to a chair getting her hair done, I was cooking for the reception, and only took about 20 photos before the professional photographer showed up. My deal with myself was that there was going to be a famous photographer there working, and that I was going to observe as much as possible and stay the hell out of the way. I also figured the sheer number of cameras at the event was going to be borderline absurd. After the paid professional showed up, I put my camera down on the mantle in Ara's room, and didn't pick it up until I packed up to leave late on Sunday. I am a little heartbroken for myself that I didn't really shoot Ara, every time I see a photo pop up on facebook I am insanely jealous, but in reality I chipped in plenty, by feeding a herd of people, drunk-wrangling, and turning into a wedding coordinator. :)
While I worked hard this weekend ensuring that the wedding went off without a hitch and that everyone was fed and happy, I also managed to have some amazing fun that will stay with me the rest of my life. Friday night I was in a hot tub in Yachats, OR with a great group of friends and a round or two of drinks, watching falling stars and appreciating the Milky Way. By about 1:30 in the morning, a group of us ran from the tub to the ocean and jumped in, drinks in hand, yelling "SPRING BREAK YACHATS!!! WOOOOO!!!!" and then raced back to the tub to warm up again. Saturday morning, while cooking breakfast for the crew, we danced to nuwave and laughed ourselves silly.
Saturday evening I watched as our friend Ben officiated the darling little service on the rocky beach, and then cried during the toasts, cheered with great enthusiasm not just the professional fire dancers, but our friend who revealed right there on the lawn that he, too, could fire dance, we hooted and screamed for the belly dancer - I mean - what other wedding have YOU been to with professional fire dancers and belly dancers?! Thought so. By 3:30 in the morning, the house was mostly clean, the last of the drinks were put away or taken away, and I fell into bed for a few hours of sleep before making breakfast for the brunch, taking a long walk on the beach with my friend Emily, and enjoying the hell out of the giant bathtub I had in my bathroom.
Sunday night, before leaving the house to the newlyweds, a few of us dunked back in the hot tub, before racing into the giant shower with dual shower heads in my room - I had been dying to get a group in there to play tag all weekend - and finally three of us were in there, and once again yelled to the amusement of those in the living room, "SPRING BREAK YACHATS!!! WOOOOO!!!!"
I then sat on a rocky jetty, watching the sun sink, thinking about the world, seeing seals playing in the waves, and knowing that it was a weekend I'd never, ever forget.
I cannot thank Ara and Nathan enough for including me in the weekend. I am looking forward to our return to Yachats next summer for the anniversary - and I cannot wait to see more photos from the big day. It felt very strange indeed to be a participant, not an employee, at a wedding.

I traveled to Groningen for my BBC Newsnight interview with correspondent Anna Holligan and cameraman Suraj, sharing my opinion on London's lethal cycling conditions and mayor Boris Johnson's (TfL) policies. We went around to film in different locations, such as Central Station's bike parking garage and one of the city's squares. Of course I shot some footage too. The video will follow asap.
My interview will be part of an 8 minute item on BBC Newsnight's broadcast on Wednesday evening, 22:30 (GMT) / 23:30 (GMT+1) August 7 2013.

It really is been raining for days and I lastly got to take the dogs for a stroll, the problem is they had so a lot stored up energy it turned into uncontrolable running jumping and playfighting.
I have to admit I enjoyed...
