I can just hear this guy's slow-witted cartoon-character chuckle.....!
One of a series of amusing 15th century carved heads supporting the roof of the nave and chancel at St Edmund's, Southwold (this one roughly at the junction of the two on the north side).
Uploaded originally for the 'Guess Where UK?' Group.
One the absolute highlights of my visit, St Edmund's church in Southwold is one of -the most impressive parish churches in the country. Arriving late in the afternoon I was delighted to find the church still open and lose myself in its beautiful interior.
The building dates from the latter half of the 15th century and makes an assertive statement, all grandeur and civic pride on a grand scale. Great Perpendicular traceried windows punctuate the walls of the entire edifice and make it gloriously light inside (mostly plain glazed as no original glass survives and wartime bombing removed what the Victorians put in).
Within the eye is drawn to the hammerbeam roof, adorned with angels (though all are partially or wholly Victorian replacements for the originals that were mutilated by iconoclasts). The chancel beyond (structurally continuous) adds to the effect further with its ceiling painted in a heavenly shade of blue. A canopy of honour is created between the two halves with painted figures of angels, overpainted by restorers but stylistically clearly close to the original work underneath.
This ceilure of course added emphasis to the rood, long since vanished alas but the screen that supported it remains and is the most remarkable feature of the church, extending its entire width (though the screens in the aisles could be identified as separate additions). All the lower panels retain their sequence of late medieval painted figures including an unusual sequence of angels, but sadly all have been defaced by iconoclasts, most likely during the reign of Edward VI when the biggest militant purge of church artwork occurred. The quality and richness of detail however is still apparent.
The choir retains some fine medieval carved woodwork including choir stalls (the misericords are disappointingly plain designs, but the armrests feature more lively details). Ornate screens enclose this space on either side.
This vast church requires time to soak up its atmosphere and bask in its beauties, it is one of the loveliest buildings one could hope to visit and will reward any visitor to this pictureque seaside town, being generally kept open and welcoming within reasonable hours.
Joseph laughing his socks off. Funny how an old fashioned Punch & Judy, with all the violence, crime and anarchy is still as comical today as it ever was.

What a shambles!
On Boxing Day morning I went to see the "spectacle" that is the Albrighton & Woodland Hunt. It was comical to watch.
Not one of the hunt masters actually looked like they wanted to be there. They rode with stern faces and gritted teeth. As soon as they saw the camera they looked away as if they had something to hide.
Maybe their angry faces were because of all the effort that had gone in to putting up crowd control barriers when there was hardly anyone there to actually watch.
The hounds were allowed to do as they pleased whilst in the street. Urinating and fouling all over the church yard. Several were scrounging in litter bins for food, do they not get fed in the kennels?
Owners of small dogs were forced to pick up their pets as the Hounds were harassing them.
Riders were happily drinking shots, one after the other, whilst on horseback whilst some looked and sounded like they had had a skin full already. Some riders were using mobile phones whilst riding.
"Security guards" strolled around in hi vis vests that belonged to construction companies and the terrier men stood around huddled in little groups.
A lady was walking, dressed in hunting attire, round the few spectators rattling a bucket begging for loose change?
One rider, a young girl I believe, lost control of her horse and it threw her off. A bystander commented she had suffered back and neck injuries. A road out of Newport had to be closed by 2 police cars, Air Ambulance attended as did an Ambulance. The hunt rode by uncaringly whilst she lay on the cold, damp road receiving treatment. Not one stopped.
There was one extremely stressed horse that had been left in a box at the rugby club.
On the way out of Newport the hounds were allowed to run on ahead, on the wrong side of the road, on a road with a 60mph limit whilst approaching a blind bend.
Surely this kind of behaviour shouldn't be allowed to go on, let alone the fact they were on their way out to kill foxes....

Was going through my “Walkography” album, which is an album where I take random snaps of anything while walking around. Found a dull picture I took of the manequins and decided to spook it up to fit the Halloween season.
Salvador Dalí 'Le jongleur de cornes préservatrifes' (The Preservative Horn Juggler), from the series 'Songes drolatiques de Pantagruel', (Pantagruel's Comical Dreams), 1973, Espace Dalí, Dali Museum, Paris
The Brown Pelican is a comically elegant bird with an oversized bill, sinuous neck, and big, dark body. Squadrons glide above the surf along southern and western coasts, rising and falling in a graceful echo of the waves. They feed by plunge-diving from high up, using the force of impact to stun small fish before scooping them up. They are fairly common today—an excellent example of a species’ recovery from pesticide pollution that once placed them at the brink of extinction.

German postcard by Ross Verlag, Berlin, no. 6123/1, 1931-1932. Photo: Ufa. Paul Heidemann in Dienst ist Dienst/Duty is Duty (Carl Boese, 1931).
Paul Heidemann (1884-1968) was a German stage and screen actor, film director and film producer. He was famous for his comical parts.
Paul Heidemann was born in Cologne, Germany in 1884. After an initial career in the tobacco branch, he took acting lessons from the Meiningen-based court actor Leopold Teller. In 1906 he debuted in Hanau as Prince Karl-Heinz in the operetta Alt-Heidelberg (Old Heidelberg). In 1909, he joined the theatre of Breslau, where he sang in Bruno Granichstaedten’s operetta Bub oder Mädel (Boy or Girl). Here Heidemann created his reputation as a talented comedian. On the recommendation of composer Jean Gilbert, he moved to Berlin in 1911, where he debuted in Gilbert’s play Die keusche Susanne (The Chaste Susanne). Franz Porten discovered Heidemann for the cinema, where he played his first lead in Das Brandmal ihrer Vergangenheit/The Stigma of Her Past (1912). It was followed by films such as Das Teufelsloch/The Devil's Hole (Rudolf Del Zopp, 1913), and Vater und Sohn/Father and Son (Alfred Halm, 1914) with Leopoldine Konstantin. From 1913 to 1915 he also played the character Teddy in countless comical shorts, such as Teddy ist herzkrank/Teddy has a Heart Condition (1914), Teddys Geburtstagsgeschenk/Teddy's Birthday Present (1915) and Teddy züchtet Notkartoffeln/teddy breeds emergency potatoes (1915). Sometimes he directed these films as well. Between 1919 and 1923 Heidemann had his own production company, Paul Heidemann-Film GmbH in Berlin, where he played the lead in films initially mostly directed by Erich Schönefelder and later on rather by Georg Schubert or by Heidemann himself. A late example is Eine kleine Freundin braucht ein jeder Mann/Every man Needs A little Friend (Paul Heidemann, 1927), starring Heidemann but also Julius Falkenstein, Hans Albers, Siegfried Arno and Charlotte Ander.
In the 1920s, Paul Heidemann became an important supporting actor and sometimes leading man in various films. He had a supporting part in the silent comedy classic Die Bergkatze/The Wild Cat (Ernst Lubitsch, 1921) featuring Pola Negri as a wild mountain girl and bandit’s daughter. Heidemann played the lead in the silent historical comedy Der kleine Napoleon/The Little Napoleon (Georg Jacoby, 1923). It depicts the life and romantic adventures of Jérôme Bonaparte, the younger brother of Napoleon (Egon von Hagen), who installed him as King of Westphalia. The film also marked Marlene Dietrich's debut and was made by the European Film Alliance, a failed attempt by the American studio Paramount to establish a production base in the lucrative German market. The EFA was wound up shortly after the film's completion, which delayed its release. It finally premièred on 29 November 1923 at the legendary Berlin movie palace Marmorhaus. He often played in comedies, such Der Sprung ins Leben/Leap Into Life (Johannes Guter, 1923) with Xenia Desni, Das süsse Mädel/The Sweet Girl (Manfred Noa, 1926) with Mary Nolan and Mary Parker, Die dritte Eskadron/The Third Squadron (Carl Wilhelm, 1926) with Claire Rommer, Flucht aus der Hölle/Escape from Hell (Georg Asagaroff, 1928) with Heidemann, Jean Murat and Agnes Esterhazy, and Flucht vor der Liebe/The flight from love (Hans Behrendt, 1930) with Jenny Jugo and Enrico Benfer. Heidemann acted often as the sidekick of the popular actor Hans Albers, such as in Der lachende Ehemann/The Laughing Husband (Rudolf Walther-Fein, Rudolf Dworsky, 1926) and the crime drama Hans in allen Gassen/Hans of all trades (Carl Froelich, 1930). Other silent films, in which Heidemann played supporting parts were the drama Die Geliebte/The Mistress (Robert Wiene, 1927) with Harry Liedtke, and Unter der Laterne/Under the Lantern (Gerhard Lamprecht, 1928) starring Lissi Arna. He played the lead in the silent drama Der Zigeunerprimas/The Gypsy Chief (Carl Wilhelm, 1929). Simultaneously Heidemann acted on the Berlin stages, mainly in operettas.
After the introduction of sound film, Paul Heidemann continued to appear in supporting parts in many German films. An example is the comedy Pension Schöller (Georg Jacoby, 1930) starring Paul Henckels and Elga Brink. It is an adaptation of the 1890 play 'Pension Schöller' by Wilhelm Jacoby and Carl Laufs. Georg Jacoby was Wilhelm's son and made three film adaptations of his father's best-known play in 1930, 1952 and 1960. Heidemann played the following year in the romantic comedy Ihre Hoheit befiehlt/Her Grace Commands (Hanns Schwarz, 1931) about a hairdresser (Käthe von Nagy) and a greengrocer (Willy Fritsch) who fall in love and conceal from each other the truth that they are a Princess and an army officer in disguise. When in the early 1930s military comedies were popular, Heidemann acted in various military farces such as Wenn die Soldaten.../When the soldiers... (Luise & Jakob Fleck, 1931) with Otto Walburg, Schön ist die Manöverzeit/Manoeuver Time Is Fine (Erich Schönfelder, 1931) with Ida Wüst, Die Mutter der Kompanie/The Company's Mother (Franz Seitz senior, 1931), Drei von der Kavallerie/Number Three Cavalryman (Carl Boese, 1932) with Paul Hörbiger and Fritz Kampers, and Liebe in Uniform/Love in Uniform (Georg Jacoby, 1932). Among his most well-known productions are Der tolle Bomberg/The Mad Bomberg (Georg Asagaroff, 1932) with Heidemann in the lead, Ganovenehre/Crook's Honour (Richard Oswald, 1932) with Fritz Kampers, Paprika (1932, Carl Boese) with Franciska Gaál, Narren im Schnee/Fools in the snow (Hans Deppe, 1939) with Anny Ondra, and Schneider Wibbel/Tailor Wibbel (Viktor de Kowa, 1939) with Erich Ponto. During the Second World War, Heidemann worked again as a film director. He staged film comedies, such as Mein Mann darf es nicht wissen/My Husband must not Know (1940) with Mady Rahl, Krach im Vorderhaus/Noise in the Front House (1941) again with Rahl, Weisse Wäsche/White laundry (1942) with Harald Paulsen, and Floh im Ohr/Flea in Her Ear (1943), even if the films were not huge hits. In the 1950s, he acted both in BRD and DDR films. In East Germany, he played Presskopp in the old Berlin farce Ein Polterabend'/A Stag Night (Curt Bois, 1955) and the mayor in Bärenburger Schnurre/Bärenburg Farce (Ralf Kirsten, 1957). He also acted in West-German films like Torreani (Gustav Fröhlich, 1951), Der keusche Josef/The Chaste Joseph (Carl Boese, 1953), Rittmeister Wronski/Cavalry Captain Wronski (Ulrich Erfurth, 1954), Der Mustergatte/The Model Husband (Erik Ode, 1956) and Jede Nacht in einem anderen Bett/Every night in a Different Bed (Paul Verhoeven, 1957). Paul Heidemann died in Berlin in 1968. He was 83.

Meerkats may look like prairie dogs, are really related to the mongoose. These comical creatures are inquisitive and alert at all times, you see them busily digging in the dirt looking for insects, making underground burrows.
These little carnivores live and work together in a group called a gang or a mob, helping each other to care for youngsters or keep a lookout for danger. If trouble is spotted, the lookout alerts the others and they all dash back into the burrows for safety. Fun to watch! :)
The Meerkat (aka: Suricate) is a small species of foraging mammal found inhabiting harsh open conditions in the semi-desert plains in southern Africa.
A member of the Mongoose family, Meerkats differ from Mongoose species in a number of ways with the biggest difference being that Meerkats are incredibly sociable animals, where most Mongooses are not.

This is a very simple but yet powerful editorial I did with Jennifer aka Penny Nouveau right before I moved away from Durango to Denver. It was SO hard to choose the final eight photos to use for my port. and I know in the future I'll probably share the others that didn't make the final cut but are still BEAUTIFUL.
When I wanted to do this concept, it was very clear in my head how I wanted it to go, I wanted it to be strictly from the collarbone up and portrayed by facial expressions, hair and make-up and bold jewelry.
The four emotions you see here are a direct reflection on falling in and out of love:
1/2) Romanticism/ Free falling into love completely with our hearts on our sleeve
3/4) Comical/Hilarity and over-whelming power of how a lot of us change into someone else when we are in a relationship
5/6) Disappointment/Anger at the misunderstood circumstances towards the end
7/8) Sadness/Loneliness when the anger subsides and we are left with only ourselves

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.

No doubt it’s a comical personage!:))))
This bird got my attention for showing ostensibly its grumpy and wit look. Totally dark except some few white feathers under its chin, an almost stocky neck. Occasionally one is born purewhite. It's not an albino they are dimorphic.
Sem dúvidas é um personagem cômico!:))))
Este pássaro chamou a minha atenção por mostrar ostensivamente seu olhar carrancudo e sagaz. Totalmente escuro exceto algumas poucas penas brancas sob o seu queixo, um pescoço quase troncudo. Ocasionalmente um nascebranco. Não é um albino, eles são dimorfos.

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.

Two pictures of my dad Horace, known as Roy, on holiday in Paris. This would have been sometime in the late 1940s/early 50s. The photo was taken by his best friend, Gerry Mude. If you look closely, he is wearing a lapel pin of a rat. If you know my dad, this is significant...
