Torture Tues: You know how I can't stop laughing when someone gets hurt in a comical way??? Well, I'm STILL chuckling as I replay Nica P's AWESOME tumble today HAHAHAHHA... Hairy Hannah came ripping down the hilly trail to greet Nica P and when she got to Nica P, her leash got tangled in Nica P's leg and Nica P went airborne!! I am sooooooooooooo bummed I didn't get that one on video!!! But you know??? Because Nica P is so fit and strong, she just got right up and we all had a good laugh!!! If she weren't in shape, she would have been laying on the dirt for a very long time hahhahahaha!!! And come to think of it, Aloha G took a tumble tripping over Ellie-G yesterday ... not to mention my epic face plant into the cement when I tripped over the uneven surface of the sidewalk as I was racing Wailee in the dark...if we weren't in shape, it would have not been so funny!! Another reminder of the great benefits of staying healthy!!!
Another thing I missed on video....Wailee chasing geese/ducks towards the pond...we thought she was going to stop at the shore but my coyote jumped into the water and then had a look on her face like, "Uh ohhhh...." hahahha....after a moment of thought, she put those kangaroo legs into action and sprung up and BOUNCED/Hopped/Pranced back to shore!! I'm pretty sure the geese/ducks were laughing thinking, "You got your bachi!!"
Anyways, it was another awesome Torture Tues...After our 1 Mile XC Warm-Up, we did Arms/Legs/Cardio then Abs/Paddles.
After class, the Spam-Dogs had some off-leash fun. Ellie-G wore Wailee out with her wrestling game!!! I've never seen Wailee to tired hahahhah!!! After her bath to get the pond water off hahaha, she jumped on the couch and conked out!! HAHAH!!
Great stuff Windy M, Skinny S, Half T, Terminator, Killer A, Aloha G, Ab Queen, Nica P, Ripped L, Cat W and all the Spam-Dogs!!
Puffins look comical when they set off - this is a juvenile probably making its first flight - but they are superb flyers
My prompt for day 103 of my 365 is "comical" - amusing, humorous - so I had to have a little look around in Lewis's bedroom for something that might fit the bill.
Well, he's got this little dinosaur that you stuff a little ball into his mouth, squeeze his fat little tummy and "wham-bam" it flies out at 100-miles per hour! It is funny as long as the ball doesn't hit you on the nose!!
Capture Your 365 .....
Thanks, in advance, to everyone who views this photo, adds a note, leaves a comment and of course BIG thanks to anyone who chooses to favourite my photo .... thanks to you all.

The bus door looks comically slapped onto the side of these EVM Cityline Sprinters, with the nearside van door still sort of there but presumably welded closed. It's a bit of an ungainly setup, but works just fine and there have been far, far worse van-derived contraptions in the past.

From watching Buzzards above the moors near Harden Moss to following a heron on the canal with a few comical goats thrown in I didn't have a bad weekend really. The Buzzards seemed to appear out of nowhere as usual, moving fast and flying high they took a bit of tracking. The heron on the other hand took an hour to walk from the other side of the reservoir to a point close to me. it stopped at an awkward angle for me to photograph it without me moving and being seen. It then did a short flight to the canal, I moved and sat on a parapet wall above a deep drop in to a canal lock. The heron skipped over the canal and came so close that I had to lean back as far as I could without actually moving and being seen just to get the bird in the frame. At times I could only get partial shots. It them flew past me, almost brushing me and landed nearby on the towpath. Fortunately on this Saturday evening it was quiet and as it walked along the towpath I shadowed it at a distance, it flew in to the canal and was eventually frightened off by dogs. My arms were killing me I'd been holding the lens and camera in front of me non stop for an hour, fighting the cramp in my left arm. The things we do.
The goats on the wall top were a bit of a distraction as I followed three Buzzards messing around in a field near a farm in the afternoon and I snatched a few shots, the one behind was headbutting the others from behind to make them keep moving, very comical.
The sign is comical in itself: stick figure hits his head on overhanging sign. Beware!
But this is a SIGN ABOUT THE SIGN. The logic behind its existence escapes me: without the sign there, there would be no need to warn about it.

COMEDY - "A-maze-ing Laughter"
Have you ever walked by someone laughing or smiling ? I find it to be contagious. My daughter, daughter-in-law and my lovelies (grandchildren) went downtown to English Bay to soak up the sun as it was another hot day here in Vancouver. We decided to go for some ice cream after playing at the beach . Crossing the street right at the corner of Denman and Davies is this tiny grassy square (Morton Park) and here are these 14 beautiful larger than life bronze statues. All in different comical poses and grinning from ear to ear. In no time , we were laughing and posing as we interacted with them. We then went for our ice-cream. Hmmm.... what a fun and delicious day!

Andrea Checchi (1916 – 1974) was a prolific Italian film and television actor, who peaked in the early 1940s as leading actor, while he had important supporting parts in post-war Neorealism and beyond.
Andrea Checchi was born in Florence on October 21th, 1916, as the son of painter Amedeo Checchi. At a very young age he moved to Rome, where he frequented the film academy Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia. In 1934, at age 18, he debuted in the historical film 1860 by Alessandro Blasetti, and less than one year after he had a secondary role in Blasetti’s Vecchia guardia. Many secondary parts in film followed until he had his breakthrough in the war propaganda film L'assedio dell'Alcazar (Augusto Genina 1940), and even more in the comedy Ore 9 lezione di chimica (1941) by Mario Mattòli, in which he had he male lead opposite Alida Valli, Irasema Dilian and Bianca Della Corte. Then came the realist romantic comedy Avanti c'è posto by Mario Bonnard, in which he rivalled with Aldo Fabrizi for the hand of the young Adriana Benetti. Other memorable parts he had were the leads in Via delle cinque lune (Luigi Chiarini 1942), Malombra (Mario Soldati 1942) starring Isa Miranda, and La contessa Castiglioni (Flavio Calzavara 1942) with Doris Duranti.
By the mid-1940s, Checchi was one of the most wanted young Italian actors, both in dramatic as in comical parts. Checchi was considered a modern antihero, impersonating loss, resignation and insecurity, and contrasting with the exuberance of young male actors like Rossano Brazzi, Roberto Villa, Massimo Serato, Leonardo Cortese, or the male star of the era, Amedeo Nazzari. His characters wore wrinkled clothes and his ties askew, rivalled with Massimo Girotti, even if less handsome, in the part of the tormented and fragile protagonist. Checchi was the natural heir of Fosco Giachetti (whom he had seconded in films like L’assedio dell’Alcazar), but he was less harsh and more flexible. Moreover, he gifted his characters with a vulnerability which was unusual for the cinema of the 1930s and early 1940s. It was because of actors like Checchi, Girotti, Magnani and up to a point Cervi and Lupi as well, that Italian cinema knew how to move more and more towards neorealism. Checchi had a raw but sensual voice, which considerably contributed to his image of a man with weaknesses but essentially good. He surely was a star in the cinema of the 1940s, and thus he was photographed by the famous studio photographer Luxardo in Rome: with a cigarette between his lips and his face partly covered by his own smoke.
In the postwar era things changed for Checchi. Though he won his first Nastro d'Argento for best actor in Due lettere anonime (Mario Camerini 1946), he received less opportunities to play leads. His face, which wore its signs at an early stage, was soon borrowed to represent losing, conquered persons, who don’t lose their dignity despite all. His sober and restrained acting resulted in memorable secondary parts which adorned films like Caccia tragica (1947) by Giuseppe De Santis – in which he played the bad guy as the leader of gang that terrorises the local farmers Carla del Poggio and Massimo Girotti. Other important parts were Isa Miranda’s husband in Le mure di Malapaga (René Clement 1949), the antifascist in Achtung! Banditi! (1950) by Giuseppe Lizzani, the film producing husband of Lucia Bosè in La signora senza camelie (1953) by Michelangelo Antonioni (which earned him a Grolla d'oro for best actor), and a part in L'assassino (1961) by Elio Petri, in which Marcello Mastroianni’s character is innocently accused of murder. In this new attire of supporting actor Checchi doubled his success of 1946, winning in 1958 a second Nastro d'Argento for best supporting actor in Parola di ladro (Gianni Puccini/Nannli Loy 1957). Within this second phase of his film career, Checchi played countless parts as supporting actor, which enabled him to work with the great directors of the post-war era and act in several neorealist films. Often he played military characters, and while he played fascist characters under Mussolini, he often played partisans and antifascists in the post-war Italian cinema.
From the 1960s Checchi had an active career in television as well, in particular under the direction of Anton Giulio Majano. In 1962 he was Father McMillan in the series Una tragedia Americana/An American tragedy (after Theodore Dreiser), then played captain Ivan Mironov in La figlia del capitano (1965) and acted the same year as Valkov in Tolstoi’s Resurrezione/Resurrection. In 1967 he was John Sedley in La fiera della vanità/Vanity Fair. Finally he played the lead of Robert Fenwick in E le stelle stanno a guardare (after Cronin, 1971), and Head of Police Bonsanti in the popular Il segno del commando, where he met Girotti again after Caccia tragica. In the following year he was Betteredge in La Pietra di Luna/The Moonstone. Checchi also played in two episodes (Il Natale di Maigret, 1965, and La chiusa, 1968) of the Maigret TV series, starring Gino Cervi. Andrea Checchi was married to the Hungarian Erika Schwarze with whom he had a son - Enrico Roberto Checchi – a television playwright. Like his father he also painted, exhibiting his work in various solo exhibitions. Afflicted by an auto-immune disease – knotty polyarteritis – and after a treatment in a specialised clinic in Geneva he returned to Rome, where died in the Salvator Mundi hospital, on March 29, 1974.

Before I give you the information on these birds I want you to know I laughed most of the day about them. They are quite comical! The one with it's wings spread had just pooped and I swear it looks like the other two were just cracking up about it!!! The color of the eyes on the right side are the actual color and the info will tell you about them!!!
I have NEVER seen these birds before and I had to look them up to find out what they were!! They are quite interesting...like they nest in trees...yeah, with webbed feet mind you!!!
Now again before I give you the info on these darling creatures...I will be off of Flickr again for a week or two. John is having health issues again and will be going in for a heart catherization and from there we will know more. That is Aug. 8th. His diabetes is becoming out of control and the doctor said he is teetering on having to take insulin shots. This week he has seen 4 different doctors so I am sorry I have not had time to comment on anyone's photos. It's just been running for a week.
This day we stopped and went for a walk on The Chattahoochee River Walk, and I spotted these guys and girls. They certainly lifted our spirits that day!
Double-Crested Cormorant
It is an excellent diver. It makes long dives where it will chase and capture its prey in its expandable throat pouch. Smaller fish are swallowed under the water but when the cormorant surfaces with a larger fish, it will flip it, and swallow the fish head first!
In flight, it has a distinctive kinked neck and has long, pointed wings. Groups of Double Crested Cormorants are often found cooperating and fishing with White Pelicans.
They are social birds and hang out in groups. You will see them with their wings spread, drying their feathers in the sun. Cormorants don't have well developed oil glands like other birds which would keep their feathers waterproofed. On the plus side, this lack of oil glands actually helps them in underwater swimming.
Note the green sheen, the bright turquoise eyes, and the grayish beak on this breeding adult.
You can see the white on the breast and the bare yellow-ish pouch on this immature cormorant.

Have you ever walked by someone laughing or smiling ? I find it to be contagious. My daughter, daughter-in-law and my lovelies (grandchildren) went downtown to English Bay to soak up the sun as it was another hot day here in Vancouver. We decided to go for some ice cream after playing at the beach . Crossing the street right at the corner of Denman and Davies is this tiny grassy square (Morton Park) and here are these 14 beautiful larger than life bronze statues. All in different comical poses and grinning from ear to ear. In no time , we were laughing and posing as we interacted with them. We then went for our ice-cream. Hmmm.... what a fun and delicious day!

Once again, I'll leave interpretation up to the viewer.
I had a lot of elaborate (and some comical) ideas for this past week's challenge photo, but in the end just didn't have time to pull them off.
Originally, I imagined this shot as a cell phone picture, but in practice I needed a little wider angle and it was easier to work the controls of the SLR than the cell phone - even without the live view.
This is pretty much exactly as I imagined the picture, though I did try some other treatments. The background is actually my hardwood floor which I masked so that I could reduce it's brightness to zero, then made everything B&W. I'll post the shot that this is based on in a comment, later.
Technical stuff: Once again, this is my trusty kit 18-55mm lens (it's awesome AND can focus really close). I used the little flip up flash on my D60, set at -1.3 EV. If you are interested in all the remaining setting (as if they matter after manipulating in GIMP), check out the EXIF data.
I shot at a wide angle, so I was sure to capture what I needed, then rotated and cropped in GIMP.
A colourful and comical saga spanning four generations, related by Belmondo, the boy who becomes a gypsy king, and constructs his own village, “Shanghai”, against the rise and fall of the Yugoslav Republic.
Shanghai Gypsy is the most expensive Slovenian film ever made, involving the creation of huge sets near Maribor for this acclaimed adaptation of novelist Feri Lainscek's greatest literary success, and drawing on acting and musical talents from across the region. Some of the film’s sequences were also shot in Trieste, Italy. Shanghai Gypsy won Best Film at the South-East European Film Festival, Paris, in 2013
The film screening was introduced by director Marko Nabersnik (Best Screenplay Award, World Film Festival, Montreal) and Visar Vishka (Best Actor, FestFilmKosova), and followed by a Q&A session moderated by BBC broadcaster Phillip Bergson.
