638 @ Lichfield which is one I have not Photographed but 641 has had PLENTY! Enough to last a lifetime!
BV73 MKD.
Now he can breath..She was a few minutes late...like always.But he thought she was on the run and wasn't showing up!!!
Okay...my wife finally got a picture of me in focus with the Leica, on the flight home from Florida.
I'm finally starting to visualize a light at the end of the tunnel. Once my appliances arrive tomorrow it'll really start looking like a kitchen. I think it'll take until at least the end of next week before it's all done though.
This is the quilt I promised Emily about four years ago. It is finally finished! Now to get Matthew's done.
Today I FINALLY got to use it the way I wanted to - to make people smile
My first attempt was thwarted by a dead battery
the next one was both stupid and frustrating
I had everything set
cable
Charged battery
jpg image on my camera
But it wouldnt work
I was pulling my hair out
and losing any cool points I might have made
And of course I didnt have the manual
About an hour of cursing later I finally figured it out
My camera was set to treat the USB connection as a computer connection, not PictBridge!
Select, print
yeah!!!
Large view.
All spring, summer and fall I have wanted to capture turtles out of the water on rocks, sunning themselves. Instead, I have only succeeded in shooting turtle heads sticking out of the water and one turtle that I encountered on the rocky path several feet from the pond. None of those were the shot I wanted though. Finally, yesterday, I saw two small turtles on old concrete stumps (left from a former bridge) under the railroad bridge over the creek. I had seen turtles there before but they always saw me first and hit the water before I could get them in focus. This time, inspite of the appearance of vigilance on the part of the turtle on the right, I was able to snap off a few shots.
Then I eased onto the bridge, being my stealthiest self, and got down on hands and knees to get some shots from between the railroad ties, directly above the little turtles. I was sure they would hear my shutter and scoot but they never did. However, the best surprise was yet to come...
After much anticipation, Cassini has finally spotted the elusive spokes in
Saturn's rings.
Spokes are the ghostly radial markings discovered in the rings by NASA's
Voyager spacecraft 25 years ago. Since that time, spokes had been seen in
images taken by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope but had not, until now, been
seen by Cassini.
These three images, taken over a span of 27 minutes, show a few faint,
narrow spokes in the outer B ring. The spokes are about 3,500 kilometers
(2,200 miles) long and about 100 kilometers-wide (60 miles). The motion
of the spokes here is from left to right. They are seen just prior to
disappearing into the planet's shadow on the rings.
At the bottom left corner of the left and center images, the bright inner
edge of the A ring is visible. Continuing radially inward (or toward
Saturn) are several bands that lie within the Cassini Division, bounded
by the bright outer edge of the B ring. The rounded shadow of Saturn cuts
across the rings in the image at right.
Cassini's first sighting of spokes occurs on the unilluminated side of
the rings, in the same region in which they were seen during the Voyager
flybys. Although the most familiar Voyager images of spokes showed them on
the sunlit side of the rings, spokes also were seen on the unilluminated
side.
In Voyager images, when spokes were seen at low phase angles, they
appeared dark; when seen at high phase angles, they appeared bright. The
spokes seen here are viewed by Cassini at a very high phase angle, which
is about 145 degrees at the center of each image.
Imaging team members will be studying the new spoke images and will
maintain their vigil for additional spoke sightings.
These images were taken using the clear filters on Cassini's wide-angle
camera on Sept. 5, 2005, at a mean distance of 318,000 kilometers (198,000
miles) from Saturn. The radial scale on the rings (the image scale at the
center of each image) is about 17 kilometers (11 miles) per pixel.
The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the European
Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory,
a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages
the mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington, D.C. The
Cassini orbiter and its two onboard cameras were designed, developed and
assembled at JPL. The imaging team is based at the Space Science
Institute, Boulder, Colo.

I've been on the quest to find a Rubiks Cube for AGES!!!!!
I work in retail and I saw people putting these on lay-a-way durning Christmas time. Well after I had just about EVERYONE in the store look for me, I found one last weekend. After being told the day before that someone tried to steal 3 of them and air freshners.
Luckily I got my cube then, because as I walked past the toy isle to go to the back, we were ALL OUT of these babies!
They're getting to know one another hehe
I'm so glad to have her here, I intend to make her my mini-me! :)
*
Elas estão se conhecendo ainda hehe
Estou tão feliz com ela aqui, pretendo fazer dela a minha mini-me :)
He needs only new red 14 mm eyes ^^ He's now wearing old Shou's brown ones.
New Yoru is napidoll Serios WS/Demon Garden WS body hybrid ^^
I finally stopped a ball on a green in regulation. I should have just stopped and gone to the bar at this point.
...the cycling year ends where it started on 01.01.2023 and it feels very good that way.
"The Mission" took me on 140 rides totalling 10,700km and 96,000m climbing but much more memorable it took me into 140 stories to remember - nice experience.
Here's where it began

The end of our Autumn Road Trip. All the way to The Mumbles and back: 43 days, 6700km, 114 hours behind the wheel, average speed 70.7 km/h, we slept in 20 different beds.
I finally got Lenny back together, i have been having a little go here and there, but always re doing everything, made her a lot of work.
I am finally happy with her, although she seems to have the hump with me lol, probably being in bits for about a year poor thing.
So on my journey to find a cutting tool in which I can cut paper at school and not need x-acto knives disguised as pens, I managed to think far back and I remember seeing a picture that Ilan Garibi posted with an "Origami Travelers Kit" and he had one of these cutters. I then remembered that Miyabi carried one for 1,95 euro but I later found one for 1 euro less on the BOS website.
I am so happy the work week is almost over! After work I just need to pack for Chicago, host a meeting for our trip to Charleston, SC (2 wks) and maybe stop by a party later... should be a busy and somewhat sober night... hopefully, cause I have to get up early tomorrow.

I was finally able to convince my friend to let me have one of his many Michael Jackson autographed items for my birthday. He decided to give me this signed Thriller LP to celebrate the release of the biggest selling album of all time and also the year of my birth :)
PS: Something tells me he regrets it now...
