Another frog photo from last summer. This shows the Baja California Tree Frog changing colors. They change colors to blend in with their surroundings.
Taken in Santa Ynez Canyon.
It's taken 6 different design changes, 3 different faces, and two different gowns, to make this gem!:) she actually was supposed to come before belle and Elsa. I bought the doll when I bought the maleficent doll, that I customized, and gave to the Vice President of the Disney store. But then belle and Elsa stalled my aurora doll.lol but she is now officially done! She hasn't been easy at all, she actually was a lot of work. As they all are, but she was exceptionally hard for some reason.lol so I cried when I put her crown on her head, which was the last thing I finished. I made everything on her. Even jewelry. And I also painted her face, gave her eyelashes, did her hair, and made her stand. She has over 100 light blue jewels on her, and over 100 dark blue jewels on her. Her gown is lined with a turquoise blue satin. And it's made up of grey and light blue tapestry, turquoise chiffon, turquoise satin, and light blue organza. It was sewn and embroidered by gold thread. Her gown is also jeweled with real glass beads, and glass crystals. Her gold chain is an antique design, with gold and red glass beads. Her slip is made of cotton lace, and ivory chiffon. Her stand is wood, painted by me, and lined on the bottom with black leather. Her earrings are made of glass beads and glass jewels too!:) her crown is metal and clay, painted with real gold paint, and jeweled with red glass crystals. Her finger nails are painted blood red, same color as her lips. This doll is one of the most extravagant I've made. And hopefully you love her, as much as I do!:)

Already in 2016 the effects of climate change were being felt. The second largest colony of Emperor penguins has disappeared in Antarctica. But climate change continues to be denied, man does not want to realize that he is destroying planet Earth.
Mother Earth, we don't have another.
Già nel 2016 gli effetti del cambiamento climatico si facevano sentire. Scomparsa in Antartide la seconda più grande colonia di pinguini Imperatore. Ma si continua a negare il cambiamento climatico, l'uomo non vuole rendersi conto che sta distruggendo il pianeta Terra.
Madre Terra, non ne abbiamo un'altra.

When I was going through our company recycling bin looking for AAA batteries I found a discarded calculator.
It was behaving badly, with all the lower segments blank.
So it became a target. I was lazy and didn't do enough calibrations of the battery projectile, so the first two shots where too early.
But I figured that it looked good enough for a third try, which is this.
Cheers.
I won't be using this account anymore. You can find me at www.flickr.com/janebphotos. See you there!
8-year old Kaiky; what future is there in store for him...?
Can we change his World? Maybe, with a little help from our friends?
We have now reached USD$3.190,00 with our Flickr Christmas Campaign, “Reaching for a Star”, that’s almost 32% of our total aim and still rising...
That will purchase some of the equipment needed for our new shelter, but there’s still a long way to go.............................
Good people!
We are preparing a new shelter for some of the street kids from the centre of São Paulo. This is a partnership project with a young Norwegian lady who has decided to join us and make the street kids her life too! The house is already purchased and now it needs to be equipped. This will be a small, family-structured project, one which has proven itself from my own experiences as a long-term foster parent for many street kids these last 14 years, two of whom are now young adults and will be assisting with the running of the shelter.
I will be the mentor for these young apprentices.
Our main aim is to implement foster-care as an important facility for recuperated street children in Brazil. Today many kids are doomed to live the rest of their childhood in an institutional setting due to the lack of structured family alternatives.
The shelter aims to tackle small numbers of children coming off the streets, where Hummingbird will be their reference for positive social reintegration and their pathway to a new family structure.
Equipping a home, as you all well know, is no easy task for any family, but we aim to have the home up and running by February/March 2007. If you feel this cause worthy please don't hesitate to make your contribution to the Reaching for a Star Campaign:
To give you just some idea of our needs:
Fridge: $700,00
Gas Cooker: $700,00
Washing Machine: $600,00
Installation of two bathrooms: $2.800,00
Installation of kitchen: $1.500,00
Kitchenware: $1.000,00
TV / Video / DVD: $750,00
Computer: $900,00
Mattresses and bedclothes: $1.200,00
Furnishings: $2.000,00
etc. etc.
As you can imagine, the needs, even for the basic necessities, are many, but if we reach the $10.000,00 target for the Reaching for a Star campaign (plus a little more), we will have installed the house ready for use. A little from many will make all the difference.
Please help us to help more kids leave the streets and certain death!
I'm sure you would if you knew them...........
Thank you!

"We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty." - Maya Angelou
''You won't be there alone.''
''Who else?''
"Jennie, their housekeeper's daughter."
"A girl!" Leo said. "Victor, I need a suit."
Leo had rarely asked for anything, so Victor didn't brush it off. He took Leo to town, and they visited a tailor, a hatter and a shoemaker.
----
Half a year had passed since Sean got a prosthetic leg when Victor first spoke of returning to the city. Victor hated leaving the regularity of country life, and he felt perfectly happy staying that close to Sean. But Leo was growing up. It was clear the boy needed new friends and something to occupy his inquisitive mind (and to divert it from pranks). It would be wrong to kill that lively nature with the spine-breaking toil of a farmer. Victor didn't want his foster son to be an illiterate village fellow who knew nothing about the world outside, he firmly decided to give Leo an education. They'd leave for the city. With a bit of luck Victor would find a good job, raise some money and hire a teacher or even send Leo to school.
Sean hated the thought of Victor leaving the farm, but what could he do?
He could do something, though. The idea struck one sleepless night. Sean was a well-educated man himself, he had a large library at home and a desire to do something important in his life. Why not become that teacher Victor had been talking about? In time he might even start a school for the local children. Leo would be his first student. He, and Guinevere, the housekeeper's daughter.
Sean could barely wait for the morning to speak his mind to Victor.

See this locomotive in the video here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=pgLq4Hd9BJ0&feature=youtu.be
Not a particularly good shot, but there was something atmospheric about this member of the crew changing the lights from the red flashing tail marker to a front disc lamp.
Here, preserved London and North Eastern Railway B1 61306 'Mayflower' is seen at London Victoria on the Cathedrals Express from Victoria to Eastleigh.
The LNER B1 Classes were built by the Thompson company between 1942 and 1952 as a mixed traffic equivalent of the highly successful LMS Black 5 and the Great Western Hall Class locomotives. The class made their initial start on the Great Eastern Mainline between London Liverpool Street and Ipswich, Harwich and Norwich, becoming an immediate success and being employed on London - Harwich 'Boat Trains', and the cheap construction costs ultimately resulted in 410 members of the class being built. The locomotive's had a relatively short life span much like many of the later LNER designs, with the final examples being withdrawn between 1961 and 1967 with only two members of the class preserved, including B1 number 61264 and 61306, which was initially never named but later donned the name of 'Mayflower' in preservation after the demise of original name bearer 61379.
61306 was in fact a British Railways built example, emerging from the North British Locomotive Works in 1948 after Nationalisation of the Railways earlier that year, and worked a charmed life in the Hull area throughout the 1950's before being transferred to Bradford in 1967 and withdrawn soon afterwards. The locomotive was immediately bought for preservation at Carnforth, where it was given the name 'Mayflower' and painted into LNER Apple Green, a livery it never wore due to the lateness of its construction. It was then transferred to the Great Central Railway between 1978 and 1989 before going into overhaul until 2006. The locomotive has recently undergone a 2 year overhaul at Washwood Heath in Birmingham and has returned in British Railways Apple Green similar to that worn by 60163 Tornado between 2009 and 2010.
In July I started doing some extra work for the supervisor at my current job, I thought I wanted to learn about operations in a department, to build my resume to be a manager or just a worker bee in the field. I quickly learned that with no experience, I would not be able to match my current salary, and I didn't like it to much. But I needed to finish my degree, being one class away and with all the interruptions in the past.
In August my co-worker had enough, she was done, and applied for a new job. I continued to do operations work in my off time, to make a better decision, if this is my was my future or not: health care admin. I can tell I realized it wasn't. But I worked with my best friend and we had a good time, and with the gym. I just continued to work and not care about moving onto something else.
In September the University I am getting a master's through called me and asked if I plan on perusing a Doctorate Degree, and when I thought about it, NO I wasn't. I wanted to finish this degree and just get another job, I needed this change.
In October, I began interviewing, and again asked about getting a PhD. I thought I would be happy with getting that Master's in Public Health i always wanted. Becoming a University employee I could for very cheap.
In November I was at Drill, and I am ready to get out of the military. I was asked what I see myself doing in the future. I immediatley responded with: I hate my weekends being taken with the Army-with more rank more of my week will be taken. I want a University Job, so I can go back to school for a PhD. Dr. Dobberstein sounds so much better than CPT Dobberstein.
Today, the HR man said sort of the same thing. Dr. Dobberstein does sound pretty neat, must be the Dr D. He also encouraged me to to that in something I become interested.
Today I accepted a position at the School of Public Health. I am hoping to begin a PhD in epidemiology or general public health .
So today and the next few weeks or years things are changing.

Remy : Change is Nature, Dad !! The part that we can influence.
Django : Where are you going ?
Remy : With Luck, Forward !!

As you can see the change is extremely subtle. It almost does just look like its darker because of the hair being wet. It changes to just a slightly darer orange. I don't think this was a good choice on Jakks part because many people will think the change doesn't work at all.
I rubbed my fingers on the hair to warm it up so you could see the before and after.
Glorious changes in colour and texture at this time of year. The smaller scale in some ways can be as impressive as the landscape views ....
Andreas changing rolls of film.
On our walk round the Ellenbogen, the most northern part of Germany, on the first day of the new year, my mate Andreas just took along his crop camera, a tiny Mamiya 645. Real men are carrying big cameras like a RZ :-)

The driver of SNCV / NMVB 6013 has to change the points by hand in order to take the route via the lesser used route over the ship canal on 23 April 1984.
God, grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change,
courage to change the things I can,
and wisdom to know the difference.

The newly renovated BC Place Stadium, now with a new cable-supported retractable roof. The roof is the biggest of its kind in the world, with each of the support masts measuring 47 meters tall.
The stadium is home to the Vancouver White Caps FC and BC Lions.
I couldn't help but notice the other day that the new stadium is also much brighter and lively. A new architectural lighting system provides dynamic lighting to events hosted at this venue. In this picture, the stadium is illuminated with colours that are representative of the Vancouver White Caps FC for game day. Rogers Arena truly pales in comparison.
