Do not be afraid of high ISOs in bright light. I pretty much leave my teleconverter on all the time now, and at f 10 this one pulled up pin sharp at ISO 2000 with very little post-processing required (although the grasses are a little distracting). Hours of entertainment to be had with these guys.
Have you been broken?
Are you afraid to show your heart?

You've been searching
Have you found many things?
Time for learning
Why have I not learnt a thing?
Words with no meaning
Have kept me dreaming
But they don't tell me anything
Life can be unkind
But only sometimes
You're giving up before you start
All you never say is that you love me so
All I'll never know is if you want me oh
If only I could look into your mind
Maybe then I'd find a sign
Of all I want to hear you say to me....

Well..... I guess it's my turn to do the 25 facts! This might take a while... xD
1) My real name is Penny
2) I really don't care for people making fun of my name, unless I know them well. Once this guy I hardly knew said "Hey Penny, if I pick you up, will I get lucky?" I wanted to slap him. >.>
3) I have a bunch of scars on my chest from BR surgery. If you have a busty problem, I highly recommend it. That surgery changed my life :)
4) I love to sing, but I'm not the best singer.
5) I love to dance, and I'm very good but I need to lose weight to get better~
6) Acting is one of my passions, and I'm regarded as one of (if not) the best female actors in the school.
7) I love to write, and create odd and unusual stories! I'm especially good with horror and thrillers.

11) I'm a major gleek! (though I don't show it too often) My favourite characters are Artie, Kurt, and Blaine.:D

13) I have tons of collections! Pullip, Re-Ment, tokidoki, jewelery, pinky:st, Monster High, ugly dolls and many more!
14) I keep almost all my boxes from my collections! They're stacked in an enourmous, heaping pile on my headboard/shelf.
15) Every one of my pullips/dals have a piece of my personality in them~
16) My parents are divorced. I live my my Mom, but I see my Dad twice a week. He lives with his girlfriend and her kids/parents. I wouldn't have it any other way, too, because I know my parents are happier this way :D
17) I've been to many places, Washington, New York (my favourite so far!), Hawaii, and California. I reeeeaally want to go to London, though! It's my dream~
18) I wish I had the courage to take photos of my dolls outside in public, but I'm afraid of what people will think >_<
19) I really want to add a BJD, another Taeyang, and a mini-me pullip to my collections this year :3
20) I love BOYS!!! :DD
21) I'm obsessed with Welch's Fruit Snacks right now... So delicious! (And slightly nutritious?)

25) I've done this sooo many times now... Hopefully it works!
Blazon, 2002.
Impressive thick layers of paint, so attractive that you want to touch the works: that is the work of one of Dutch artist Bram Bogart (1921-2012).
More of Bram Bogart at my Blog:
I'm afraid I found that I'd rather eat fruit than photograph it, so I passed on today's Looking Close... on Friday group challenge. That meant I had to dip into my alternative list again and the theme picked at random was Pastel. This is a porcelain stud button, hand painted in Limoges in the late 1800s, and it's about 1" wide. Nearly all of the wild flowers have disappeared from my lawn now, but I did find this one tiny pink one. The background is the inside of a large shell.
I took a little vacation last month and photographed in the everglades (FL) this gorg crocodile. it was so cool to me to see how relaxed they were regarding of tourism around them. having said that, this is what inspired this creation.
My life in constantly changing and soon major changes are happening!!! this photo represents my feelings. The unknown is what we as humans fear the most. I am not afraid, just excited about the future.
So I was awake and decided I would go for a predawn walk and wait for the sunrise, and it brought to mind all this Halloween nonsense; ghosts, goblins, zombies, and monsters.
Nonsense.
I ain't afraid of no ghosts.
Later, as the faint light began to show in the east, I came across a cemetery.
Whoa......that gate wasn't open just a second ago. What's up with that?
Why is it foggy all of a sudden? It wasn't foggy a couple seconds ago.
What was that noise in the leaves, no really, what was that?
Oh man, it just got chilly.
Hey, is someone there?
Why did that tombstone just teeter?
Why is that gate creaking, there's no wind.
Are those Coyotes I here? It's blood-curdling.
Those are definitely footsteps in the leaves.
What was that glint?
Oh no..............not that?
Noooooooooooooo.......................
" Down at the gasworks by the meat factory door
The 5 Lamp Boys were comin` on strong "
{ Do have a look the piece of History Ive written on this as its interesting I think, and it will hopefully make you smile! }
These are some of the words to the song, "Rat Trap" by Bob Geldof and the Boomtown Rats which was a big international hit for them in November 1978.

" The Story of The Five Lamps "
The 5 Lamps are a well known Dublin landmark and stand on an island at the junction of 5 streets. It is much loved and respected by the local people who are part of a closely knit community and can trace back their history here to the 1600s.
The monument was erected to the memory of Lieutenant
General Henry Hall,a soldier from Athenry, Co. Galway at a cost of £200 which he bequeathed in his will, so the people of the area would have fresh water to drink from the [4] fountains and "desist from partaking of the demon drink!!" I dont think it worked somehow and they didnt even add it to their whiskey! Anyway, what respectable whiskey drinker would ruin a good drink like that and they couldnt have afforded it anyway. More likely Poteen was the common drink around here. If Henry came back today,Im sure he would be delighted to see that "The Five Lamps" pub across the road is now closed!
Henry also had a little pad in Dublin which is still standing and known as "Merville Hall!" You could fit half the population of Dublin into Henry`s little place and with a few dozen sepoys with there back to the task, you would probably get the entire lot in! "What what I say!! Steady lads!, Good show you fellows!!!" { Shades of "Zulu"! } I dont know if he really said that of course but somehow I think he would. I cant imagine that he was an Irish native somehow. Not with his position in the British army at that time, or his apparent wealth.
He had served in the Bengal army and had been Superintendent of the Malwara region for 13 years so he had a few quid!
He died in 1875 and by all account was a "jolly good sort"
and he did have the peoples good at heart as there was no proper water supply and people existed in appalling conditions in tenement slums. Some of the renovated ones can be seen in the photo.
The independent MP, Tony Gregory fought all his life to have the old places knocked down and new town houses build so the local people could remain in the area and not be moved to some " no mans land" in west Dublin which had happened to so many. He was very successful and he achieved an awful lot and the community have stayed together. Poor people who lived in these appalling conditions, were always very loyal to each other and they all helped one another.They always looked after their neighbours The community spirit is still evident there thankfully! Wealth brings out the worst traits in lots of people Im afraid.
There is a lovely Dublin saying from around this period. Mothers in the tenaments would call their children in from the streets at dinner hour by calling out through the window " Will ya come in kids! Yer dinners poured out" Dinner being a bowl of gruel or maybe on special occasions, soup!!!
What is the significance of the 5 lamps? It may be to represent the junction of the 5 streets, or the 5 major battles in the Indian wars or perhaps the 5 lamps that are lit for good luck during the Hindu Diwali Festival. No one really knows and more than likely its probably just a nice design.
The photo is a 3 picture HDR merge in PSP x8 and further edited in Picasa 3. I do like the ghost images of the passers by.
Anyway, if you fancy a few drinks I could meet you at the 5 lamps but watch out for the ghost of old Henry, keeping watch!
Thanks for dropping by. I appreciate your Faves and comments and Ill catch you all later!

When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we see
No I won't be afraid
No I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darling, darling stand by me
Oh, now, now, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me
If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
And the mountain should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry
No I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darling, darling stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me
Oh, now, now, stand by me
Oh, stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
Darling, darling stand by me
Stand by me
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
