this deer was as close as this....she just caught the corner of my eye--- not timid at all---if anything she was curious about us.

Not sure what's going on with this pack of film - this whole pack seems overexposed and flat. Done some levels adjustment here to get some contrast.
"It's a lie. It's a bunch of sad strangers photographed beautifully, and... all the glittering assholes who appreciate art say it's beautiful 'cause that's what they wanna see. But the people in the photos are sad, and alone... But the pictures make the world seem beautiful, so... the exhibition is reassuring which makes it a lie, and everyone loves a big fat lie."
-- Alice, from one of my favourite movies, Closer.
I was asked to make a new environmental award for Solna Stad. The winner is Taxi 020, a cab company who has made important environmental improvements this year. For me, it was a different experience to work in a more sculptural way. I very much enjoyed chiseling out the base in the coarse stoneware clay.
This is a shot from my P&S. Its fun having that little camera wherever I go. This is from a sunset a few days go. I don't think it gets any better then a sunrise or sunsets with storm cloud. Have a great week everyone.
The Closer dvd box set is one of those crime dramas that has both dynamic characters played by an impressive cast and interesting cases that will keep you hooked.
Deputy Chief Brenda Leigh Johnson, played by Golden Globe winner Kyra Sedgwick, has a personality as strong as her southern accent. Tough, tenacious, and strong-willed (except where sweets are concerned), Brenda battles not only the crime in Los Angeles, but the chaos in her own life and squad. The leading member of LA’s Priority Homicide Division (PHD), she is what is known as "a closer"- the person who tries to get a confession from a suspect.

i went on monday night for the last of the movie-in-the-park summer series for 2009. they were showing 'close encounters of the third kind,' a spielberg classic from the 70's about spaceships and friendly, casiotone aliens.
i spent some time pre-movie doing a series of candid shots of the crowd. i'll probably upload quite a few in the next few days -- had a really fun time doing this series.
Sampson has been our buddy since 2004. In the winter of 2008, he suffered a severe perineal hernia that required a $2000 surgery to repair it. At the time of the surgery, we were told that due to the severity of the hernia that it was likely to reoccur. As predicted, it has reoccurred and he desperately needs more surgery before 2012. Other than the hernia, he is a happy, healthy and active dog who should live to his mid to late teens. Therefore, I cannot in good conscience end his life prematurely. I have also contacted a Corgi rescue in hopes that he could be adopted to a family that is more financially able to care for him. However, since my husband and I can't have children, giving him up for adoption because of health issues seems as ridiculous to us as giving up our 9 year old child for adoption because we can't keep up with the medical expenses. We work in the service industry, living paycheck to paycheck and our credit is not good enough to get a care credit card that would allow us to make payments. To help us pay for Sampson's surgery, we have set up a ChipIn donation site to raise funds for Sampson's surgery. So please consider donating whatever small amount you can to help keep Sampson with the family that loves him. If you can't make a donation, please pass this info along to friends who may be able to help. Sampson, his Corgi buddies Shiloh & Rusty and his human family thank you!

11.11.11 Update: A big thank you to all you wonderful flickr friends! We've received several generous donations from flickr members pushing us over the 13% mark of our goal. Since I've been promoting Sampson's photos, I've found several of them used on websites & blogs. I hold a creative commons license because I'm not a professional photographer and if people like my photos and want to use them, I don't want them to be limited by an exorbitant fee. However, I have a pup in trouble and he needs your help, so, if you like my Corgi photos or save them as favorites, please donate $1; if you use any of my Corgi or animal photos on your website or blog, please donate $5 to: corgisampson.chipin.com/sampson-the-corgis-hernia-surgery...
It's a small price to pay compared to a pro's fee, and it helps a much loved dog in need. Again, we appreciate all efforts & donations, and Sampson & the Corgi Clan thank you!
