I spent a ton of time researching for the trips I take and I always have a helper at my side pawing the paperwork or hiding the pens. Here is Buzz looking for attention taking up a lot of space on my ‘U’ shaped desk. An incredibly sweet and affectionate cat he is……………..but I need my map time!! 1255
Today's story and sketch "by me" is all about the Flying Lawn Chair
you see in the sky. It is on it's first test flight piloted
by the Falopian test Pilot Captain Ping, (Falop is one of the duel
moons near Saturn). Ping was re least from the FSU Hospital just hours
ago when it was discovered most of the other test pilots were in
worse shape than Ping. Though Captain Ping's legs are both in caste's,
after flying a glider into Saddleback mountain last week, (a story for
another time), he is in better condition than the other test pilots,
and was cleared to fly the newest Glider the "XX2" which was
nicknamed the "BUZZ", when it was being tested in the "FSU" wind tunnel.
It seems the XX2 developed a fluttering sound at low speed that
became a loud buzz when the wind reached a speed of 200 miles an hour,
The XX2 designer Doris Kagler was so excited about the Buzz she talked
Rescue Randy, the worlds greatest test pilot and anatomically correct
actual living crash test dummy, who also heads the test pilot division at
Flying Stuff University, Randy did not want to fly the Buzz himself even
though Doris is one of his favorite girlfriends. At Randy's request
Doris redesigned the XX2's pilot's lawn chair, into a Wicker Hospital
Bed, which as you can see is working fine as Captain Ping is Buzzing
above the chase vehicle driven by Limpy Gofish. I hope to have an
update on the flight of the Buzz soon, until then taa ta the
Rod Blog.

Raptors Are Easy To Shoot On Trees Or From A Hide But Shooting A Raptor On Ground That Too @ Eyelevel Without Any Hide Is Either Pure Luck Or Loads Of Skill & Study. It Was Quite An Exercise To Find The Right Approach For Making This Image. Hope You All Will Enjoy This Juvenile Long Legged Buzzard.

Scene number three using the $4 table I painted yellow. Blogged about here: theshoppingsherpa.blogspot.com.au/2013/07/buzz-bar-yellow...
She buzzed into the house with the deepest of droning sounds, just like a garden strimmer.
What a whopper, at least 4cm long.

The 'Bentilee Buzz' branding was introduced late last year as Bakerbus started running in competition with First on the busy 1 and 2 routes to Bentilee, in response First introduced this brand lower fares to and from Bentilee and it seemed to work as Bakerbus retreated a few months later, whereas the branding and lower fares remain.........for now. True to form branded Caetano Nimbus bodied Dennis Dart SLF LK03UEY (41521) isn't on the aforementioned routes but is instead seen arriving in Hanley as a 26A - which does at least serve Bentilee, amongst numerous other places, passengers from which will no doubt be delighted to find out just how much more they have to pay! 08/04/2014
King Street in Toronto’s Entertainment District was closed to traffic today and busy with pedestrians and vendors, all in celebration of the Toronto International Film Festival – TIFF. (tiff.net/) I had parked my bicycle and was walking down the middle of the street, taking in the buzz of the Festival when I encountered this beautiful woman with her brilliant headscarf and stylish white sunglasses. She was walking a Bike Share Toronto bicycle (www.bikesharetoronto.com/about) and appeared to be enjoying the Festival atmosphere much the same as I. I stopped her without a second thought, introduced myself and my project and asked if I could photograph her. The poor woman hardly had a chance to decline but she did ask how the photo would be used and when I explained, and illustrated the concept with my contact card, she agreed. Meet Veronica.
It was a bright overcast mid-day and I felt I could get away with a middle-of-the-street portrait and not detain her unnecessarily. I put down my cup of coffee and set up my camera for the photo. I took some with the sunglasses and some without. I could see I would be very satisfied with the portraits and would have trouble choosing when I got home. Veronica suggested I might try one with the bicycle and I agreed it was a good idea and took that photo as well.
Veronica was born in Malawi in Africa and came to Canada at the age of 5. She is the co-founder of Kuwala and is responsible for marketing and communications. Kuwala is a great social enterprise concept. It is "an online boutique that curates unique and exclusive pieces from socially responsible African fashion brands. We offer fashion conscious consumers beautifully hand-crafted pieces from talented fashion designers and ethical women’s cooperatives based all across Africa." You can learn more about Kuwala by visiting www.kuwalainc.com.
Veronica had just come from a meeting, rented a Bike Share bike to do a few errands, and decided at the last minute to walk through the TIFF crowd to see what was happening. Lucky me that she did. She sounded like a busy person with more than one iron in the fire and she said one of her greatest challenges is time management to get everything done. When I asked if she had a word of advice to share with the project she said “Yes. Take some risks in life.” I asked if her saying yes to my request to meet and be photographed would be an example of taking a risk. She said “Well, yes really. I didn’t know you at all and you could do anything with the photos.” I told her that my project hinges on trust between strangers and that I really valued the trust she had shown me. I told her that when she visits the project online, I hope she concludes that her trust was well-placed. She said “Sometimes it’s important to take a risk. You just never know where it might take you.” What a wonderful stranger.
Thank you Veronica for letting me be a part of your Toronto International Film Festival walk-through today and thanks for your participation in my Human Family project on Flickr.
This is my 48th submission to the Human Family group on Flickr.

Follow up: I received a very nice email from Veronica telling me how much she enjoyed the photos and the Human Family experience. She also helped me out a bit with information about her company.
Buzzing a glacier on the way to Crescent Lake. Unfortunately I don't know the name of it. I wouldn't want to have to try crossing this glacier on foot :-)

My second attempt at shooting 5x7 J.Lane Dry plates in my Deardorff.
This plate shows the plate before cleaning the back, non-emulsion side after processing.
I shot this on my bench with a nearby subject... my Buzz Lightyear action figure (about 10 inches tall).
After careful metering with a blue filter, I decided to try a 60-second exposure. I used the recommended 1:32 dilution of L110 (Legacypro developer) rather than full strength like I had to use last time to tease out an image from the 10 second shot.
I got some really nice tones, low grain, and a workable image!

Various diecast manufacturers have gotten in on the 1:64 VW ID.Buzz act. I thought Matchbox might have modelled one for their basic mainline range but as Hot Wheels beat them to it they've designed one for their Moving Parts series instead.
Already on its second release with this brand new duo-tone orange and white recolour and like its previous the tampo machine gets a full run here with precise detailing on all four sides.
Mint and boxed.
TK-485, Codenamed "Buzz", for unknown reasons, progressed quickly through the ranks of his Stormtrooper unit displaying exceptional bravery, skill, leadership and very, very crazy eyes.
Well...not really. 1-2, and the rest of the formation pass in front of the tower at Buckley AFB. This particular aircraft has just recently come out of modifications upgrading it to A+ standards, ensuring this airframe stays in the inventory for a long time to come.
Fleet Buzz solo 47738 has just arrived at Farnborough, and not hanging about, leaving very soon with the 42 into town.

The title frame for this album is on I took in 1996 of Buzz Aldrin book signing in Monterey Ca. I have now reprocessed this using Negative Lab Pro software rather than my Lightroom preset that I constructed myself and which gave rather odd colours.
An Apache Cicada on my Lysiloma tree. Unlike their 17-Year cousins in the eastern US, the Apache Cicada emerges in overlapping three year cycles, so their emergence is an annual occurrence around here. The triangular-shaped white plates behind the rear legs are the noisemakers, called tymbals, found only on the males. The loud, droning buzz is the male cicadas way to attract female cicadas for mating purposes; they just sing a nice song for the ladies and get laid... how cool is that?!
