Meant to post this yesterday, but I was having too much fun. Oops.
Just playing around with the soldiers, a leftover flag from the jubilee and the bright sunshine in the conservatory. I want to replicant it while I'm controlling the lighting at some point.

Yuba getting ready to attack the lanyard on my camera - he thought it was the perfect item to attack. I was trying to take his picture as quickly as possible and he was trying to attack as quickly as possible. I got lucky with the picture but he managed to attack the lanyard.
"Panic attacks are sudden, discrete periods of intense anxiety, mounting physiological arousal, fear, stomach problems and discomfort that are associated with a variety of somatic and cognitive symptoms.
The onset of these episodes is typically abrupt, and may have no obvious triggers. Although these episodes may appear random, they are a subset of an evolutionary response commonly referred to as fight or flight that occur out of context.
This response floods the body with hormones, particularly epinephrine (adrenaline), that aid in defending itself from harm.
Experiencing a panic attack is said to be one of the most intensely frightening, upsetting and uncomfortable experiences of a person's life."

Elsie is a fierce little huntress, her quarry didn't stand a chance - she snapped it like a twig :) Actually, Elsie isn't a very proficient or enthusiastic killer of anything much (which is absolutely fine by me - especially as I have a pet hamster!). She quite often seems to frighten herself, even when playing with inoffensive toys - like string, or scrunched up paper. She'll do the lying in wait part, eyes big as saucers, wiggling her back end in excitement, next she pounces on her "prey" and then... she runs away from it very fast and has a mad five minutes zooming up and down the stairs, or racing around the garden. I was quite surprised she stuck around to dispatch this twig - she really did snap it half! Anything for a photo :)
Given how wimpy she can be around small stuff - live or otherwise - you might think Elsie was a push-over of a cat. She's not though, far from it! Elsie is an attacker of human feet (mostly in the middle of the night). She is guardian of the stairs (walk carefully by her, or she'll smack even the biggest human!) She stares down our large chickens without fear. She makes Barney cower in fear and human children flinch from just her gaze!
We had a terrier, Wally, who's a committed cat-chaser visit last year. I shut Elsie in the garden, locking her cat flap. Wally raced through the house and started yapping through the clear door. Slowly, the yapping died down... I peeped out, Elsie was sitting just on the other side, glaring in, growling like a motorbike. She obviously had NO intention of backing down. Wally went from enthusiastic hunter to cowed in the space of a few moments - she made a hasty retreat, Elsie wandered off to go sun herself! No-one can mess with Elsie (unless, it seems, maybe if you're mouse-sized).
The title here comes from a phone conversation I had, when I called the company Barney-dog is insured with, to get Elsie covered too. I told the lady on the phone Elsie was a cat, her age etc. Then she apologised and said she had a requirement to ask me: Was my CAT used for racing... or trained to attack? Errr... NO!! So silly but it did give me a good laugh, plus, racing cats could be pretty fun and trained attack cats? I guess they'd be scary - when they weren't asleep!!

An entry for Loreos' LC3 on Classic-Castle.
A band of outlaws from the southern lands are sailing up Roawia's eastern coast in multiple light, swift vessels to raid the people of Loreos. This particular band are commonly known as the Grimson Skull, and are made up of Orks, Trolls, fell men and various outcast creatures, rejected by the three provinces. Here we see them launching a surprise attack on the small fortified post of Bardurk, Where the Loreesi soldiers rush to the beach to fight the outlaws in hand-to-hand combat. After all, Captain Lancorv, commander in charge of Bardurk, doesn't believe in firing arrows from the safety of his fortification's walls, he fights, as he puts it, "like a true Loreesi".

by the giant palm frond!
There are two huge palm trees across the street. They are perhaps 80 or 100 feet tall. They tower well above the telephone poles. When the wind blows they drop these fronds all over the neighborhood.
The cold steel of the warehouse doors pressed against Jake's back, mirroring the icy dread creeping through his veins. Jenna, a shadow beside him, ran a hand over the grip of her machine gun, the metallic click a stark counterpoint to the pounding of Joe's heart, audible even in the cavernous space. Tension hung thicker than the dust motes dancing in the single shaft of light slicing through the warehouse doors. Every nerve ending screamed. They were a tableau of desperation, poised on the precipice of escape. Safety's off. The air crackled with unspoken promises of violence, a silent countdown to the chaos that would erupt the moment those doors swung open. The heavy weight of their weapons felt both reassuring and terrifying, a tangible symbol of the fight they were about to face.
Nikon D4 | ISO 2000 | 70-200mm lens at 125mm | f / 2.8 | 1/1600 second. I have taken to sitting behind the west goal at Sporting Park to the right of the just within the box and waiting for the action to come to me. When it does, I don't need a super long lens and I can see right into the faces of the athletes. It was wicked hot and humid last night for the Colorado Rapids v. Sporting KC match and I found a lot of action right in front of me. The only problems was wiping the sweat out of the view finder so I could see.
Toronto Sun news photographer Stan Behal was attacked by a person who seemed to be part of an anti-hate protest. Behal received a concussion in the incident, and police later charged a man with assault in connection with the assault. The anti-hate protesters were at Toronto's Nathan Phillips Square (city hall) to counter a planned demonstration by anti-Muslim protesters on the anniversary of the Charlottesville protests. The original protest was called off, though few in the crowd of counter-demonstrators seemingly were aware of that.
After putting a promo image up for my entirely fictitious live action reimagining of Mars Attacks! featuring the Roman God of war, Mars, and his cat headed warrior goddess, Bast, I had a vision for a small animated scene featuring some of the other gods they had battled on their path to total domination including Britannia, the personification and protector of Great Britain...

It stopped raining finally and I saw some really pretty clouds moving across the sky outside. So I grabbed a Digital Camera and started out to snap a few quick shots..when WHAM!!! I was slammed to the ground. I couldn't see a thing and was pinned down.
Fortunately my lovely wife Judy came to my rescue and pulled the attackers off me....after laughing hysterically and shooting fifty or sixty photos of course.
