I feel a need to post this because I took a spill trying to get here. Bad shoes on slippery rocks = bad news. But I remember holding my camera high to protect it from the water, while my hip and elbow took the lion's share of the fall. Had to ice down a bit later, but the camera stayed dry. Thus, this was my hardest shot to get of the Maroon Bells.

When you lose yourself in one's work.

To the one who is more beautiful than all of the most beautiful things in this universe put together.

My local fishery has a few ponds, the one with the men fishing had a tiny area free from ice and these two dedicated souls were doing what they enjoy, as i was doing what i enjoyed.

There are many things to observe and photograph in the south Florida rookeries during the winter. Many of our birds begin their courtship, breeding, and nesting season. It's a thrill to observe. At this time, they are usually sporting their nicest plumage and often are exhibiting quite affectionate behavior.

 

One of the most thrilling to photograph is the great blue heron. Possessing an impressive wingspan when flying, they make everyone take notice. Such grace and beauty in motion, but it's when they return with the most carefully chosen stick to add to add to the nest that you can truly appreciate them. The male will fly in, land at the nest. offer it to its mate, they jockey it back and forth a bit, carefully place it in the exact spot for which it was intended, then usually celebrate that addition to the nest. Often they will intertwine their necks and look towards one another, almost as if to make a heart shape. I know that sounds weird, but those of you who have witnessed this behavior, know what I'm talking about. Sure they may squabble from time to time, but you know that they're union is strong. :-)

 

Thanks so much for stopping by to view. Happy hump day as well.

I wasn't expecting any company at Somerset Road cutting this morning, but nothing seems to stop this chap.

Sometimes, especially in this tumultuous 20's decade, I've felt like we're living the lyrics of this great old song.

 

When I log in here and see the world through your eyes: humorous, creative, thoughtful, interesting...I'm back on solid ground again. Thanks (to everyone) for being you.

........to my Mother-in-Law. She passed away this day 1 year ago, on the day of her Patron Saint. Her name was Pat.

Ironic?

 

Sometimes words are just words, actions are more important. Thank you for picking me up whenever I am feeling down.

 

I totally lost interest in photography six months ago, but now I am eager to dedicate myself to improve once again. The first thing I did was picking up my dust-up extension tube to see if I could produce some magic tricks.

CCC X

Medieval Life

 

In the far North, a forge can be found. Owned by Balig the Blacksmith whose fame spreads throughout the land. Throughout the harsh bitter cold climate, Balig works hard at his trade and produces only the most finest of weapons, truely dedicated to his work!

 

I've been building this during Iron Builder and was tempted to use the mystery part so I could have this as a IB entry as well, but I chose not to.

 

I discovered many new techniques while building this, as it was a headache to get every piece of wood panalling to fit perfectly together. The stone work is also a combination of 3 techniques including literally leaving an open hole and then filling it with different bricks so that they are only connected by the shear force of being wedged in together.

 

I'm feeling really pumped for CCC this year, so I have decided to once again compete for Master Builder....only if time permits!

   

This photo is dedicated to Chris Williams who did a wonderful mosiac of my photos, and for Arshad for writing me my very first testimonial!

Thanks so much to you both, im so lucky to have such wonderful friends!

A Japanese chef preparing a platter in front of us. The no nonsense attention to detail is evident. He threw away whole batches of raw material if they are not up to scratch. Doesn't smile much but I admire his dedication.

I cannot imagine how much time it took to perfect this act.

this one is dedicated to my young old friend Antje, who has birthday today. I hope you like it :=)))

Through an interpreter I learned that this shopkeeper has worked at the same family business for 40 years, arriving daily at 4:30am to prepare for the day.

Dedicated to all my dear friends who wrote a beautiful, lovely and wonderful testimonial to me.

(LC, Khasan, Kim, Trixie, Jacques, ZJ, Kevin, Edmond and Nisha!)

You guys are Great! ^-^

This is dedicated to revol69, kentim and amysimages2005 for their very thoughtful and eloquent testimonials. I appreciate it so very much. They are all very talented photographers and I am humbled by their wonderful compliments. Thank you........

There are quite a few great photographers here on Flickr. I feel the Northwest has some of the best in the world. Maybe I am biased because I live here but I think others will agree as well. That being said there has been one of my contacts who loves to shoot the coastlines about as much as I do and I have been following his work for the last couple years and am continually inspired and motivated by his images....If you have not had the chance to check out Steph's work I highly suggest you visit his stream and check out the amazing beach shots he posts...
