Today is my beautiful friend Ali’s birthday. I so wish that I could be celebrating it with her with soup and cake at QPO or sharing a Pumpkin and Fetta pizza at TimeOut, and some photography hi-jinks, but alas that is not to be.
Despite some expert assistance with image selection I couldn’t completely narrow down my choice of image to honour Ali’s birthday so this is one of two images we chose to honour her, both taken with her gorgeous Lensbaby Twist 60 lens she so generously gave me.
Such a kind, generous and beautiful lady, and the best of friends, I think of Ali and miss her so much every day. An inspirational photographer, who has touched many out there in the Flickr community based on messages I have had recently. We were all so lucky to have been moved and inspired by her photos and to have been able to share a part of our lives with her.
The colour yellow is said to represent friendship and joy, both of which Ali brought into our lives in large quantities.
Happy Birthday dear Ali-gator, always in my heart!
“Silence is closer, we’re passing ships in the night” is from “I Sat By The Ocean” by Queens of the Stone Age, have a listen to Ali’s favourite acoustic version www.youtube.com/watch?v=4E4S0XWPMgQ

No great back story to this guy, but here’s what I got:
Sewage worker of 2275 turned to his true calling, as a drone operator. His new profession has him working on the dark city streets of Mirai No Toshi, as a Skill For Hire (a more respectable way of saying mercenary). Frequently shipping out as surveillance for inner-city contraband trafficking, Don has a growing library of skills and efficiencies.
His moral compass is solid, as far as SFHs go, and he refuses to have anything to do with human trafficking. When he can, he’ll sabotage missions of the sort due to his distaste for the business.
Harboring dozens of drones, he can hold his own if necessary, though he prefers not to over exert his use of his resources unless it is absolutely required.
AS OF 2/23/19 I intend to start posting more. I just finished up my finals for this last trimester, and I’m currently transitioning between rooms in my house. I’ll probably post a picture of my new set up (nothing impressive) and hopefully I’ll start posting weekly if not twice a week. The main reason for not posting often is a combination of being really tired once I get all my homework out of the way, and also just being too damn lazy. It’s not even that I don’t get to do things with LEGOs, because I do almost every day, it’s just I don’t have a new photo set up or even anything worth posting. Hopefully that will change.
More posts coming soon! Keep it chill, dudes!
"The Golden Knights are made up of several expert teams and skilled professionals who all play a critical role in the US Army’s success. This includes parachute teams, aircraft pilots, and even those behind-the-scenes handling jump logistics. Whether jumping out of planes going 120 miles per hour from 12,500 feet or landing with expert precision, they embrace the thrill of adventure and feel proud while doing it."
I snapped this photo shortly after this freefall parachuting tandem team jumped out directly under the midday sun. With a 1000mm focal length and atmospheric haze, sharpness was not to be, but to my delight, I captured part of the sundog and its rainbow.
Needless to say, their skills were amazing!
May each one of us take inspiration this Memorial Day from the patriotism of the brave soldiers who died for our country!

An F/A-18F from VFA-122 Flying Eagles (radio callsign EXPERT) returns to NAF El Centro after a training mission over the nearby ranges.
A white stork efficiently dispatching an eel - apparently their favourite food - on the Ria Formosa at Ludo. The eel was found, killed and swallowed in well under a minute.
I was fooled when I first saw this, thinking it was a real dragonfly.
(Dedicated to my old E-410 ... a great introduction to Olympus cameras).
I'll readily admit I thought this might be a fragment of fossil wood. However, it has been re-identified by a well-known local expert as the fragment of an Ichthyosaurus rib bone. The specimen is approx 1 3/4" / 4cms long.
Here is Wiki's short version simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ichthyosaurus
Sandy Beach break on a nice day...IF you know what you're doing. If NOT, then an ambulance ride could well be in your immediate future.
Today's story and sketch "by me" is about the Bar Fly infestation at the Mohave Desert Playa Beautimus Retirement Resort. Today you see JB piloting his Space Jumper Chopper, he just exited the worm hole nine Topoc Gorge portal with Buster Quigly and his wife Kate, JB avoided the Playa Beautimus stargate exit. The Playa Beautimus stargate is closed, to prevent a new strain of hybrid Bar Flies getting into the worm hole and infesting the Galaxy.
Buster is the galaxies number one expert on fruit fly eradication, and in the summer the base running coach for the Dodgers.
The bar fly infestation began when the common Drosophila melanogaster the common fruit fly, a little insect about 3mm long, of the kind that accumulates around spoiled fruit not normally interested in Moon Pies. But a tourist bus from the Planet Ganglee had some stow away Ganglee fruit flies that escaped at Playa Beautimus Resort, the Ganglee fruit flies, normal size is about two inches long and resemble a fruit bat with a nasty set of chompers (Ganglee Teeth), their main diet is the
Ganglee berry, identical to our Blueberries. A few of the Drosopilia fruit flies cross breed with the little Ganglee bat flies and they are now a blueberry and goat cheese moon pie eating Menace. I hope to have an update soon on the Bar Flies,
until then taa ta the Rod Blog
I was surprised to come across this one tucked into the Bracken the other week. I'm definitely not an expert but fairly certain it's an un-sloughed male. It didn't even have milky eyes yet. It wasn't sitting as photogenically as the other one, but still gave me what I felt was a nice angle showing the markings from above :-)
