Another collage of all my dolls that I currently own, plus their head sculpts right on the picture along with their names!
I'm getting closer to buying the Impldoll Azalea finally, but I haven't quite taken the plunge yet. I'm sure I will soon though!
This animation shows the circulation of ocean currents around the western Antarctic ice shelves. The shelves are indicated by the rainbow color; red is thicker (greater than 550 meters), while blue is thinner (less than 200 meters).
Warm ocean currents attacking the underside of ice shelves are the dominant cause of recent ice loss from Antarctica, a new study using measurements from NASA's Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite (ICESat) revealed.
An international team of scientists used a combination of satellite measurements and models to differentiate between the two known causes of melting ice shelves: warm ocean currents thawing the underbelly of the floating extensions of ice sheets and warm air melting them from above. The finding, published today in the journal Nature, brings scientists a step closer to providing reliable projections of future sea level rise.

Current shots from our aquascaping showroom. Come and visit us, we're open! We're working hard on our new display aquariums these days.
Currently on a trip to St. Augustine from where these pictures are located (Wekiewa State Park). Was bored in the car so I decided to edit these, more coming soon :)

The Yorkshire Wildlife Park was built on land formerly occupied by the 260-acre (110 ha) Brockholes Farm Visitor Centre, and currently occupies about 100 acres (40 ha) of the site. Cheryl and Neville Williams and business partner John Minion purchased the site in 2008 with funding from Lloyds TSB Commercial, private investment, and a Yorkshire Forward grant. The site was renovated over the 2008–2009 winter, and officially opened by Justin Fletcher, MBE (also known as Mr Tumble from CBeebies) on 4 April 2009.
In February 2010, the park rescued 13 lions from a Romanian zoo and, after their quarantine period, released them into the newly built 10-acre (4.0 ha) Lion Country enclosure.
In 2011, the zoo opened Land of the Tigers, which contains two pools and a waterfall and was created next to a wetland reserve. Visitors view the tigers from a 150-metre (490 ft) long raised walkway, with the tiger enclosure on one side of the walkway and the wetlands on the other.
In March 2012, the park opened Leopard Heights, a ÂŁ300,000 open-topped enclosure that lets visitors view the Amur leopards from an 8-metre (26 ft) viewing tower or from ground level through a 10-metre (33 ft) long glass wall. The 6,000-square-metre (65,000 sq ft) enclosure is claimed to be the largest leopard enclosure in the world. In July 2014, the park opened a large enclosure for polar bears, named Project Polar, with the first bear being 500 kg male Victor; a second arrived in March 2015 called Pixel, who is Victor's grandson. On 15 April 2015, Yorkshire Wildlife Park announced that one of its Amur tigers had given birth to three cubs on 29 March 2015. A video of the birth was released on the park's official Facebook and Twitter page. The park has become a popular attraction in its first few years, starting in 2009 with only 66,000 visitors; it hosted 323,000 in 2011. The Yorkshire Wildlife Park, commonly referred to as YWP, is a wildlife park located in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, in England. It was built on the site of Brockholes Farm Visitor Centre, which closed to the public in November 2008. The park prides itself on being 'The UK's Number 1 Walkthrough Wildlife Adventure'.Yorkshire Wildlife Park is a member of the British and Irish Association of Zoos and Aquariums (BIAZA) and the European Association of Zoos and Aquaria (EAZA).
Lion Country
Lion Country was opened in May 2010 to house 13 African lions, which were acquired from Oradea Zoological Garden in Romania in February 2010. The lions had been kept in small enclosures and poor living conditions, and were in poor health as the Romanian zoo could not adequately care for them. Today, Lion Country is still home to the eight remaining lions, which are housed as three separate prides across the three enclosures.
Lemur Woods
Lemur Woods is a walk-through enclosure with lots of trees, housing groups of ring-tailed and black-and-white ruffed lemurs. The lemurs can often be seen climbing high in the trees, or sunbathing on the ground.
African Plains African Plains is a large, savannah-like paddock displaying different African animals such as Ankole cattle, ostriches, Rothschild's giraffes, lechwe, and common eland. In the enclosure, they also have endangered Grevys Zebras which they are doing a lot of conservation with, as they are very rare. They also have a large, grassy paddock for 2 young male critically endangered black rhinoceros, that have a large house at the back of the paddock as well as several mud wallows and piles of browse in the paddock, which has been made to look like the African savannah.
Land of the Tigers
Land of the Tigers houses four Amur tigers: three adults, named Sayan, Vladimir, and Tschuna; and one cub, called Hope. Hope had two brothers, but they were sent off to other zoos so they can have cubs of their own. The enclosure features two pools and a waterfall, as well as a 150-metre walkway for visitors. The tigers can often be seen playing together or even climbing trees, which they seem to enjoy a lot.
Project Polar
Opened in August 2014, Project Polar houses four male polar bears named Victor, Pixel, Nissan and Nobby. These are the only polar bears in an English zoo. A fifth polar bear, named Tongki, is due to arrive at the park in November 2018. The largest enclosure is ten acres in size and features two pools, the largest of which is eight metres deep and contains 25.5 million gallons of water. This is one of the largest polar bear enclosures in the world.
South America Viva
South America Viva is a walk-through enclosure displaying several South American species, including Patagonian mara, common squirrel monkeys, Azara's agouti, common rhea and capybara. There are also separate enclosures housing six-banded armadillo, South American coati, giant anteaters, common marmosets and giant otters, which are situated near a South America-themed restaurant called "iCaramba!".
Baboon Reserve
Yorkshire Wildlife Park - Baboon Reserve
Opened in Easter 2013, the Baboon Reserve houses a troop of Guinea baboons which came from Edinburgh Zoo.
Leopard Heights
Leopard Heights houses four Amur leopards: two adults, named Drake and Freya; and their two cubs born in June 2015. The enclosure is 6000 square metres in size, features climbing frames up to ten metres tall, and cost ÂŁ300,000 to build.
Other animals
Other notable animals in the park's collection include Bennett's wallabies, African wild dogs, visayan warty pigs, red river hogs, Bactrian camels, addax, meerkats, yellow mongooses, okapi and the newest attraction, Ussuri brown bears.
Here are images from my recent visit to the Cambo (www.cambo.com) factory in the Netherlands while I was visiting Amsterdam. Rene Rook of Cambo was nice enough to guide me through the entire production process as well as show me some vintage cameras from the companies history and show me their current product line (which was just recently updated at Photokina 2012)
for a full review of the products and a discussion of the images you see here (especially the vintage products) you can read the full article on my website www.brianhirschfeldphotography.com

...Of a Night Blooming Cereus!
This is the first year our cereus has been so productive.
Currently there are 17 pieces of fruit...
(...plus the one on my drawing table which I dissected
specially for the Cactus Monday cause. LOL)
We have had a few tiny pieces of fruit in the past
but
once the birds get wind of the pending feast
everything is picked clean!
This year is indeed different...the fruit is larger, there is more of it,
and nothing appears to be feasting on it.
I wonder what's up???
In doing some research
I ran across a night blooming cereus with red fruit called Pitaya or
Dragon fruit (cool pics here)
which is edible..and supposedly tastes similar to kiwi.
I wonder...
Will mine mature, get larger and eventually turn red?
Hmmm...
Guess there will be
NO snacking for the time being...:)
Have a fruitful Cactus Monday All! :)
"One is wise to cultivate the tree that bears fruit in our soul."
We will be moving soon so this is temporary. I really want to get a glass desk and a nicer chair. Maybe with a view?

Currently about 300 people, 68 families live in small bamboo huts on stilts at the rubbish dumpsite of Mae Sot/ Thailand. These refugees who successfully fled the brutal military regime in Burma, with hopes of leading a life free of human rights abuses, are living under dire conditions. They lack working and residency papers, they are illegal immigrants living and working in the middle of stinky dump.
Their spirit of survival is amazing, but their conditions are terribly dismal. They literally live on the garbage and their houses are constructed and built from the recycled material from the garbage dump itself. The basic essentials they need to survive and to live as human beings basically come from the garbage dump and these include food, clothing, toys for their children, pots and utensils for cooking and even the water they drink come from the lake near the dumpsite which is terribly contaminated.
Please help to make a difference and relocate these refugees to a clean and safe area. On a rented property we will build basic infrastructural facilities such as housing, toilets and a water well.

Took a bit of a staycation this year and went out to Kilmore Resort for a few days (just outside of Swift Current). Had some decent weather and got some reasonable pics - mostly of my son, but a few nice ones that I thought were Flickr worthy.
Shot of the moon through the canopy of leaves - thought it was kinda cool
Here are all of my current dolls in order of joined/rejoined.
Talulah should technically be second, but I was going to sell her. Thanks to my partner and a friend she rejoined my collection on a new body.
I also updated some of the pictures on here from my dolls. And the last doll is a Fairyland LTF DES in tan. I'm currently paying her off slowly on a layaway. She's going to be Jazz's daughter Bonnie.
It's kind of fun, everyone has a face up by me. Bonnie doesn't yet, but she's not here yet so I can't work on her.
