We conducted the annual NABA Butterfly Count for the Lake Meyer circle today. Similar to the more familiar Audubon Christmas Bird Count, the butterfly count takes place around the Fourth of July in a 15 mile diameter circle, centered here around Lake Meyer Park. Monarchs were very scarce today. In fact we only counted two within the 15 mile circular boundary. At that rate, monarchs are on the fast track to extinction.
This male Gadwall looks like he’s practising his conducting skills!
Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment or fave my images!
I prefer to conduct all of my business at the farm, but sometimes even I have to leave my comfort zone of the barn and head to the city for meetings. This is much more bearable when you have amazing fashion choices to amp up your inspiration levels! The current round of the Cosmopolitan Event answered that call to perfection.
This chic jumpsuit from Hilly Haalan is as comfortable as it is elegant, and it ensures that you are ready for anything the day brings, from a mid-morning meeting to evening cocktails! Love it! And the generous array of mix and match color options is phenomenal.
Can we just swoon at the sight of these dazzlingly lovely earrings from Ava Kungler / KUNGLERS? Oh, good grief, these are gorgeous! You know they are going to be in your jewelry box forever. For certain, I will never part with them. And when the weekend rolls around, they will morph into the perfect finishing touch to a denim and boots mix. So, so love these, Ava!
I finally arrived at my hidden beach getaway to watch the sunset, and perched happily on this gorgeous sofa set from SimpleThings Decor&Poses Are we not completely spoiled with the brilliance of designers in the SL realms? This sofa has multiple color options for the woodgrain and pillows, and each choice is as beautiful and upscale as can be. The inclusion of a calming firepit and candles elevated my evening to zen status that was a luxurious treat!
Okay, it's official: I may never leave this spot! Sending lots of love and happy energy! xoxo

Japan formally announces IWC withdrawal to resume commercial whaling, Tomohiro Osaki, Staff Writer, The Japan Times
In a landmark policy shift, Japan formally announced Wednesday that it would withdraw from the International Whaling Commission and resume commercial whaling in its territorial waters next year for the first time in more than 30 years.
Japan’s withdrawal will at the same time put an end to its IWC-sanctioned whaling activity in the Antarctic Ocean, long conducted under the name of “scientific research,” in a practice widely slammed as commercial whaling in disguise.

In 1936, Jungle Gardens founder E. A. McIlhenny (affectionately known as “Mr. Ned”) received a magnificent Buddha statue as a surprise gift from two of his friends in New York City. After discovering the statue in a Manhattan warehouse (where it had sat unclaimed for years), they shipped it to Mr. Ned by rail - hoping that it would find a suitable home among the Asian flora of his gardens.
Mr. Ned created a beautiful shrine set within an opulent garden for the Buddha, which is said to be more than 900 years old. The Buddha quickly became a focal point for visitors and still serves as a centerpiece at the Gardens. In recent years, the shrine has become an active place of worship for local Buddhists, who conduct a number of ceremonies there throughout the year - most notably on Buddha’s birthday.
This praying mantis sure looked like he was conducting an orchestra - he was actually trying to get hold of that vine.

With 2022 coming to a close, it's a privilege to look back at the amazing memories we built and the friends we made. Thank you for all your support, kind words, and friendship. What symphony will you compose in 2023?
This morning I conducted an experiment: I shot the same scene in quick succession with three digital cameras that use sensors of a very different make: the now almost ubiquitous CMOS type, the CCD type that was used exclusively in the first generation of digital cameras and Sigma's Foveon X3, which leads a niche existence.
This one was shot with an Epson R-D1x with an APS-C sized CCD sensor.
Overall, I find that this has the best colour rendering and best retains the nuances in the hues. None of the highlights are blown out (contrary to the CMOS sensor) and there are no strange colour shifts (as with the Foveon sensor).
Interesting that such an old and by now largely abandoned sensor design can still hold its own against much newer technology.
Street photography is photography conducted for art or inquiry that features unmediated chance encounters and random incidents within public places. It usually has the aim of capturing images at a decisive or poignant moment by careful framing and timing. Street photography overlaps widely with candid photography, although the latter can also be used in other settings, such as portrait photography and event photography.
Street photography does not necessitate the presence of a street or even the urban environment. Though people usually feature directly, street photography might be absent of people and can be of an object or environment where the image projects a decidedly human character in facsimile or aesthetic.
The photographer is an armed version of the solitary walker reconnoitering, stalking, cruising the urban inferno, the voyeuristic stroller who discovers the city as a landscape of voluptuous extremes. Adept of the joys of watching, connoisseur of empathy, the flâneur finds the world "picturesque".
Susan Sontag, 1977
Street photography can focus on people and their behavior in public. In this respect, the street photographer is similar to social documentary photographers or photojournalists who also work in public places, but with the aim of capturing newsworthy events. Any of these photographers' images may capture people and property visible within or from public places, which often entails navigating ethical issues and laws of privacy, security, and property.
Much of what is regarded, stylistically and subjectively, as definitive street photography was made in the era spanning the end of the 19th century through to the late 1970s, a period which saw the emergence of portable cameras that enabled candid photography in public places.
First shot from this evening's light painting collaboration with James de Luna and Tobias Maxximus. Shot in one photographic exposure with light blades. Thanks for a great evening waving lights in the dark!
..yes flickr friends I know it's a bit of a messy image but don't you think it's just a wee bit whimsical;). Laughter and sunshine to you all.

Conducting a New Year's Eve workout to see if the water has music. No bells, sadly, but it did have a certain 'ring' to it :)

March Point. Padilla Bay/Fidalgo Bay.
"Hosting one of the largest Great Blue Heron colonies in Western North America, this island of forest sits between Padilla and Fidalgo Bays. Vera and Bud Kinney donated this property to Skagit Land Trust in 1994 to protect the nesting herons. With the cooperation of neighboring landowners, each year, Skagit Land Trust conducts a nest count in the heronry. 680 heron nests were counted in 2019 in this relatively small area, which provides easy access to feeding grounds for the herons. Unfortunately, the Trust does not have access to all neighboring property, and therefore some heron nests are uncounted. The overall trend, however, shows increasing number of heron nests in the colony on SLT property and the property to which we have access -- and there are likely to be hundreds more nests on the adjacent property to which we do not have access."

NASA’s newly redesigned RS-25 engine for future flights of the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket underwent its first hot fire test of the year on Feb. 8 at the agency’s Stennis Space Center near Bay St. Louis, Mississippi. NASA continued testing with a second test Feb. 22.
The series of testing supports production of new RS-25 engines by lead SLS engine contractor Aerojet Rocketdyne. The new engines will help power future Artemis missions to the Moon beginning with Artemis V as NASA explores the universe for the benefit of all.
In this image, a remote camera offers a close-up view of the Feb. 8 RS-25 hot fire on the Fred Haise Test Stand.

NASA conducted its second RS-25 engine hot fire test of the new year Feb. 8 on the Fred Haise Test Stand at Stennis Space Center near Bay St. Louis, Mississippi. The test was the third hot fire in the latest test series that began in mid-December. NASA is testing RS-25 engines to help power the agency's Space Launch System (SLS) rocket on future deep-space missions. Four RS-25 engines will generate a combined 2 million pounds of thrust to power SLS’s ascent.
