VAMPIRES: HOUSE OF SHEOL VAMPIRE COVEN

Click on the sea lions to see them larger. This actually seemed like a rather mild argument, which was won by the party on the right through nothing more than strong body language. I believe these are females because the males are supposed to be significanty larger and are apparently all in Alaska right now.

One more shot of the American Flamingo, Phoenicopterus ruber from my recent trip down to Florida and visit to the Homosassa Springs State Park.
Four days after I took the B&W shot I returned to the park determined to watch the flamingos for a bit with the camera mounted on a tripod and gimbal mount. They're funny how they all sit quietly as if to appear asleep, then suddenly, they all start having arguments and prance about displaying their feathers. This goes on for a bit, then as quick as it started, it ends and they all settle back down. Fun to watch and out of it came this shot! Similiar to the previous shot that only had one flamingo, here I got an added bokeh flamingo. This feather study is what I was after and it's been in my head since my first visit back in 2017.
Double-crested cormorants arguing about roosting rights. I took twenty photos of the squabble. I combined two of them to show the best facial expressions and wing positions.
Two male House hopper jumping spiders. These jumpers really can put on a show, more like a dance than fighting though its for real!
Dejo esta imagen de la ciudad de Ushuaia…Bahía Golonddrina , playa del hotel Tolkeyen.
Aquí tomó esta imagen mi hijo mayor , que con su Handpan, aprovechó, sus dos horas libres para salir del barrio y tocar en libertad…
En primer plano el Handpan. Este término se usa para un grupo de instrumentos musicales que resulta de “El Hang”,instrumento inventado y construido por la compañia suiza PANArt Hangbau AG., de Berna en el año 2.000. Hang , es mano en este idioma.
Este instrumento…se basa en el Steeldrum, de percusión melódica, de acero, originario de Trinidad y Tobago creado en 1951. Inspirado en la costumbre de los jóvenes de tocar ritmos con latas o bidones en las calles…Y también en el Gatham, instrumento de cerámica utilizado en la India.
El término Handpan fué discutido con bastante controversia, argumentando entre otras cosas, que la palabra "pan" es de uso cultural en las bandas de Steelpan en Trinidad y Tobago, que no tienen nada que ver con el lugar de origen del Hang.Los que estaban a favor, resaltaban la necesidad de un término genérico.
Finalmente"Handpan"se convirtió en la expresión convencionalizada entre los interesados en éste instrumento.
Ansel Adams would slap a red filter on his lens, then spend three days burning and dodging in the dark room, making his prints. That’s a manipulation. Even the photographs of Henri Cartier-Bresson, with all due respect to him, are notoriously burned and dodged :-)

A lighthouse is a guidance for real, like in a building
For some reason lighthouses have always fascinated me
A guidance in your life is your intuition
As hard as it can be
As easy as it can be
It's always there
Whispering
We tend to listen more to our ego tho
Our ego always have the arguments, the solutions
Why to do things
How to do things
Definitely how and why not to do things
It's often the easy way-solutions or the more fun stuff to do
Your ego keeps on building up arguments why it's smart to follow the egos way
Be aware when you repeatedly think the same arguments over and over again
It's your ego talking, it never whispers
It's cool to know tho, now you can choose to listen if you want, either it's the ego or the intuition
I love knowing
Knowledge rules
I just have to add this little music for you, I love Pink Floyd, it totally rules :D
I haven't heard this one before.
Talking to a loved one today, while this one was playing in the background, totally made this music a lovely piece of art the rest of my day.
This photo of a grebe having an argument with a coot over territory. It was triggered when their babies were swimming around and overlapped but too close, as it turned out, to the grebe's nest. The sound was significant and the grebe's low posture was interesting to watch play out. Coot is in next photo.

"LOIS et REGLEMENTS sur le CONTACT avec les EXTRATERRESTRES" ... aux USA .
"C' est dans l' air du temps que cette ""paranoïa anti-extraterrestre"" soit devenue mondiale . Il faudrait se méfier de tout contact avec un intelligence extraterrestre ou toutes formes de vie extraterrestre . Et, comme chacun le sait , nul n' est censé ignorer la Loi , même si c' est pour réglementer un contact avec un phénomène qui n' est pas censé exister , car il n' est pas officiellement reconnu , mais qui pourrait tout de même l' être si on ouvre grand les yeux .
Les Gouvernements jouent ainsi avec les contradictions et ils ne manquent pas d' imaginations ni d' arguments pour légiférer sur un contrôle de ceux qui seraient confrontés au phénomène ovnien . Nous retrouvons des Lois à géométrie variable parce qu'on ne sait jamais ce qui pourrait se passer dans la tête d' un terrien ...
Les Politiques en parlent , les Militaires les craignent , les Stratèges ne savent plus sur quel pied danser ...
Un bref aperçu pour avoir une idée du contexte culturel et idéologique dans lesquels émergent ces Lois ..."

Thank you , my Friends , for your Visits ...
Brief disagreement, and seemingly over quickly, between a Black-capped chickadee (in air) and a Dark-eyed junco (perched).
Couldn't pass up a slightly almost-sunny day!
Thanks for your comments,
The argument between these masked people looks worse than it was. In fact, there was no argument, just a friendly chat. The 'Paper & Clay' theatre which put on the Halloween parade made some fabulous masks. It was probably smaller parade than usually, as it was raining all day and evening, but kids joined in their own costume, as the parade proceeded through the Christie Pits neighbourhood. There was even a 6 piece brass band led by a prominent Toronto sax player Richard Underhill.

I know this is corny but I love Christmas. It is such a magical time of the year. I know some would disagree with me. Their argument, it is crowded, commercialized and people are cranky. Perhaps.....but, everything is in perspective. Let me explain....yes, I have been alone and sad on Christmas. I have felt times where buy buy buy commercials have frustrated me. Moments where if I got hit by one more person and their rushing cart, that I might lose it. Trust me, I too have been there. But I started to realize, I could either focus on the bad, or the good. Instead of wallowing in self pity because I am alone on Christmas, I can instead go to the local church parish or nursing home and see if anyone needs anything. Someone else is surely lonely too and needs a tender word or a small gift to cheer them. When we see past our own circle around us we tend to see things a little differently. You can truly have your own "Christmas Carol" experience if you only soften your heart. Allow the real magic of Christmas to envelope you this year, see where it takes you. It will be an adventure you won't soon forget.

The Squirrel
A squirrel to some is a squirrel,
To others, a squirrel's a squirl.
Since freedom of speech is the birthright of each,
I can only this fable unfurl:
A virile young squirrel named Cyril,
In an argument over a girl,
Was lambasted from here to the Tyrol
By a churl of a squirl named Earl.
-- Ogden Nash
Despededia y cierre para el que fué, durante años, mi mercante favorito de la zona.Personal de la propia Renfe se defiende con argumentos como..."Esas decisiones las toma el ministerio..." Aunque me temo que habrá más razones detras ( las cuales a mi se me escapan...) para desviar tres trenes semanales cargados de bobina de papel finlandesa del puerto de Santurtzi a Azuqueca De Henares en varios camiones...Camiones, si, esos que contaminan tanto...Poco antes de esta, para mi, lamentable desaparición, la empresa consignataria Toro y Betolaza cambió de ubicacion en el puerto y montó unas nuevas instalaciones con dos vias de cargue, en el que habia que dividir el tren en dos y realizar bastantes maniobras por parte de Adif.Tendrá esto algo que ver? Sea como fuere, aquellos que quieren que seamos limpios y ecologicos nos dan ejemplos de mala gestión como éste.A pesar de todo, quedarán imagenes como ésta, de sus últimos años de circulación, ya con los vagones Hbis de ejes bastante maltrechos,como un grato recuerdo.Feliz semana para tod@s.
One of my doctoral students (he was from Africa, incidentally) asked me once why I had flowers in the house. His argument was that a 'home', as a human space, was opposed to the non-human space that surrounded it, namely nature, and that the other living things of nature (flowers, dogs, cats etc.) had no place in a home. I was perplexed because his argument had and still has some force. Agapanthus blossom, taken with the Samyang 2/135 at approx. F16 plus a 16mm macro extension tube.
This Eurasian Magpie was standing on the fence, with another one in the Poplar above it. They seemed to be having a conversation when, all of a sudden, this bird became quite agitated :)
This was one of those reflex shots. These two, what I think are Palm Warblers, suddenly flew out of a tree and had a second or two of arial argument. I’ve tried hard to identify the bird and have come up with our most common warbler, the Palm. But I invite you birders out there to correct me if I’ve mis-identified it. Thanks.

When I were a lad there was a man with a horse and cart and the man used to stop in the street where I grew up shouting 'any old iron'. This old Iron escaped his attention and belonged to my gran. Judging by the weight of it this explains why gran had arms like steel girders and never lost an argument with grandad :-)

Go find your own dead squirrel.
A couple of crows fighting over a scrap of squirrel fur in Mendocino, California.
My alarm sounded at half three and through bleary eyes I turned it off. The internal argument raged...stay in bed Vs get your arse up. Get your arse up won and off I went to the far side of the Peak District.
I passed by Mam Tor, Winnats and Padley on my way. All of which looked resplendent shrouded in fog but I stuck to the plan and I arrived at a layby near around half four. A twenty minute walk later found me admiring this scene. The mist in the distance softening the rising sun which was bathing the mossy boulder and lone tree.
It's moments like this which you have to remember when that alarm goes off. I've not enjoyed a morning out with the camera as much as this morning ever. The bird song, the fresh air, the dew covered spider webs draped over the heather, the two Cuckoos in the distance calling one another and to top it off a lone Deer bounding through the misty woodland.
On January 1, 2019, Rotterdam rapper Faysal Msyeh, better known as Feis, was shot dead after trying to calm an argument.
On the day Feis would turn 35, artist duo TelmoMiel started with a life-size mural as a monument against senseless violence.
Friends and family took the initiative for this tribute. Rapper Winne, one of his close friends, explained why: "Feis deserves a lasting tribute. The work he made, but above all the person he was, make him someone that many rely on. Especially when it's difficult, especially when it can be done better. Including him in the streetscape of his beloved Rotterdam-West is the least we can do for him and his legacy. A relatively small gesture, with great value for many Rotterdammers."
'Feis Forever', Streetart Rotterdam, The Netherlands
Location: Coolsestraat and the corner of West-Kruiskade
Artists: TelmoMiel
More info about TelmoMiel:
~~Since 2012, Telmo Pieper (Amsterdam, 1984) and Miel Krutzmann (Rotterdam, 1989) have been working together as an artist duo TelmoMiel. They met in 2006 at art school and learned a lot from working together. When they started making murals, they made individual pieces that they brought into one composition. Gradually this evolved into painting one image together, and designing and creating concepts as a duo. TelmoMiel have painted large-scale and surreal murals throughout Europe.~~

I also spotted a mural of this duo in Ghent, Belgium. See first comment box

"just a little bit left of center."
I am reminded of four definitions: A Radical is a man with both feet firmly planted— in the air. A Conservative is a man with two perfectly good legs who, however, has never learned to walk forward. A Reactionary is a somnambulist walking backwards. A Liberal is a man who uses his legs and his hands at the behest-at the command — of his head :-)
