Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. If you don't celebrate Christmas, celebrate Peace on Earth and the idea that through pictures we are all one. From the Hromnak family we wish you and your family all the best and look forward to the New Year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Special ornaments for Marybeth and I, they were the first ornaments we acquired while on our Honeymoon in Hawaii. Each year they are the first ornaments to go on the tree.
Thank You for all your visits, pink stars and comments, even when I'm off line, and for all the inspiration and joy you all share everyday!!!!
Textures by Lenabem-Anna.
BTW: The EXIF is wrong, I edited it back to a 2014 image for the text so I wouldn't have to recreate it and it keeps the EXIF from last years shot.
The best I could come up with for the Jules' Photo Challenge group today! ALL my hats seem to be in New Orleans and I am in Alabama today! Tinker was NOT amused by the idea of wearing a hat . . . so it's not actually The Cat IN the Hat! ^..^

If you have a moment, you really must go
To the garden of wonder where cool breezes blow
Mrs. Iris is there with her myriad flowers
You can stroll among blossoms for hours and hours
You’ll find purple, and orange and yellow and blue
Lilies and irises of ev’ry known hue
With ruffles and tuffles, and fabricky folds
And stamens and pistils for one to behold
And if you get there early with a smidgen of luck -
Poppies with plenty of petals to pluck!!!!

“How did it get so late so soon? It's night before it's afternoon. December is here before it's June. My goodness how the time has flewn. How did it get so late so soon?” Dr. Seuss was right to ask - it seems to happen suddenly when you're having the time of your life.
I am always fascinated by the seadragons at Birch Aquarium
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_seadragon
The common seadragon or weedy seadragon (Phyllopteryx taeniolatus) is a marine fish of the order Syngnathiformes, which also includes the similar pipefishes, seahorses, and trumpetfishes among other species. Adult common seadragons are a reddish colour, with yellow and purple striped markings; they have small, leaf-like appendages that resemble kelp or seaweed fronds, providing camouflage, as well as a number of short spines for protection.[3][4] As with seahorses and the other syngnathids, the seadragon has a similarly tubular snout and a fused, toothless jaw into which it captures small invertebrate prey at lightning speed. Males have narrower bodies and are darker than females.[4] Seadragons have a long dorsal fin along the back and small pectoral fins on either side of the neck, which provide balance.[5] Weedy seadragons can reach 45 cm (18 in) in length.
The common seadragon is endemic to Australian and insular coastal waters of the eastern Indian Ocean northern Southern Ocean and the southwestern Pacific Ocean. It can generally be found along the entire southern coastline of the Australian continent, including Tasmania and other offshore islands. It can be observed regularly from around Port Stephens, New South Wales to Geraldton, Western Australia, as well as off the coast of South Australia and the Great Australian Bight.[2]
The seadragons are slow-moving and, like most of their relatives, rely on excellent camouflage—the mimicry of seaweed, in this case—as a defense against predators. They lack the prehensile tail that many seahorses and pipefishes have evolved as anchors, to clasp and steady themselves; seadragons, instead, drift in the water among kelp and seaweed masses, which they blend-into with their leafy-looking appendages.[4]
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birch_Aquarium
Birch Aquarium (Previously Birch Aquarium at Scripps, sometimes referred to as Scripps Aquarium or SIO Aquarium) is an aquarium and the public outreach center for Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California, San Diego.[4] Accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums, Birch Aquarium has an annual attendance of more than 439,000,[5] including more than 40,000 school children, and features more than 3,000 animals representing 380 species.

How many fingers

One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven,
eight, nine, ten.
He has eleven!
Eleven!
This is something new.
I wish I had
Eleven too!
I also did this one as a joke, but it is Dr. Suess inspired.
Bokeh is the Japanese term for the round-shaped pattern in the blurred or out of focus area seen in the photographic lens. Majority (if not 99%) of the photographers is obsessed with bokeh.
We do not see bokeh with our naked eyes. Bokeh can be seen only through the lens in the viewfinder.
Bokeh is originally used in composition to blur the background and let the viewers focus on the subject that is supposed to be sharp in focus.
However later on many photographers find bokeh as so interesting and it becomes the subject matter itself or the most interesting element in the composition.
Among my Flickr friends, there are so many talents in making great bokeh compositions. Just to name a few, Kelven and Nina are two of them.
To celebrate the greatness of bokeh, I decide to shoot a mini series of bokeh compositions for my favorite Steveston.
Have a great Monday and week coming!
This is taken at the bicycle rental store in Steveston.
Do you ever have one of those days where you just don’t feel like moving? Well, today was one of those days for me. I had to force myself to accomplish the few things on my to-do list that couldn't wait. There were a few moments where I contemplated snapping a shot of me and calling it a day! I had gone back and forth a few times with Nina from the paper answering some more questions. In one of her last emails she mentioned something about it being Dr. Suess’ Birthday and National Read Across America Day. I decided to take the idea and run with it as it was probably going to be the only good idea that I had at my disposal. I had the concept, now to develop a theme and get a model.

An incredible night downtown at the Festival of Trees in Rochester. And I think this photo just about sums up how I felt in the midst of all the (controlled) chaos.
I volunteered to photograph the event (party) during the opening night gala (craziness).
This was my first time attending, and boy was it something else. Here I thought I had it all laid out...yeah right! All for charity, and no holds barred!
These people seriously know how to throw a party.
Looking forward to the rest of the week!
you can mess with my house
you can mess with my mouse..
you can even mess with my fish..but never...never mess with my dolly!!!
The latest challenge for Scrapmojo....Dr. Suess month, over there! It's to use a print out from the blog (I printed mine on the ledger paper) and also use "Oh, the places you'll go" on the page (mine is the first line in my journalling)....this is my lil brother playing with the felt polaroid camera he grabbed from me, he had so much fun with it!! Come play along:
January 12, 012/365 (1108/1461)- Inspired by the Dr. Seuss's book of the same name, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year! It's still as good today as the day it was written.
On the left is my original little SB600, the other two are newer SB900's on "Justin clamps". All three fired 1/128th power. Overhead was another SB900 full power bare. All flashes fired with Nikon's CLS from controls on the camera, just part of the magic world of strobist!
Grad present from my mom.
She got my gr. 12 English teacher, my gr. 1 teacher, and my leadership teacher/vice principal to sign it.
Part VII
Back at home the suspense is too much for the Pirate Danbos.
Wee Danbo drops the shell he found at the seaside and dances from foot to foot eagerly waiting for Little Big Danbo to open the message in a bottle!
