My wife is riding in the Great Cycle Challenge, which is a benefit for children's cancer research here in the United States. She's wearing her bib from last year in this photo. As part of the promotion, a photo of her and one of the children she is riding in honor or memory of are presented at the Times Square electronic billboard. This is the photo that she will be using for this year. You can learn more about the charity here: greatcyclechallenge.com/
My wife has ridden in the USA Great Cycle Challenge, which benefits children's cancer research, for the last 6 years. Participants have their photographs displayed on NYC's Times Square main screen on August 21st as a way of promoting the ride (a different photo I took at the same time). She will ride her bike in the month of September, attempting to ride 600 miles over the course of the month with a goal to raise $2,500.00 for the cause. www.greatcyclechallenge.com
More practice with glass and light. I would have been happier with these photos if there was a black background, but I still liked the reflections on the table and the centering of the flame/crystals.

What is Eid al-Adha?
At the end of the Hajj (annual pilgrimage to Mecca), Muslims throughout the world celebrate the holiday of Eid al-Adha (Festival of Sacrifice). In 2010, Eid al-Adha will begin on November 16th, and will last for three days.
During the Hajj, Muslims remember and commemorate the trials and triumphs of the Prophet Ibrahim(Abraham).
"It's a sad day when I have to use my storage room as a make-shift torture chamber. I used to have a torture chamber.....a proper torture chamber. To bad the cops found it. Now I am reduced to this, strapping a young lad down to a lawn chair in a back room full of mildew, mold, and sorrow.Then again, I do have all of my toys here. This location at least allows me to be creative with my procedures."
"Why are you telling me all of this?"
Oh!!! I forgot you were here. You've been so quite, I almost forgot what I was doing, HA HA. It seems I started thinking out loud again. Oh well, let's continue shall we?
"No, please, no more! I don't know where they keep the codes. I'm just an intern. I just got the job last Tuesday!"
"Eh, I'm not buying it............let's try the jumper cables!"
"Oh God please no...no...NO....NOOOOOO!"
*The Joker shocks the young man until he is almost unconscious*
"Now now boy, don't go a sleepin' on me now. You haven't given me I want yet."
"I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU WANT YOU FUCKING LUNATIC!!!"
"Ooo, full of the vinegar I see. Got a lot of built up aggression do ya? Well, I can fix that."
'Wait, what are you doing? Please, stop, I don't know the codes."
"Calm down boy, I get that point. I've been torturing you for 3 hours now. If you knew them, you would have cracked by now. Unfortunately, that means you are completely useless to me. I'm afraid I must dispose of you."
"Please no, I won't tell anyone, I'll stay quit."
"Ha ha, we both know that is a fat lie, now hold still."
*Joker sprays the man with his toxin*
"There, maybe now you'll cheer up, ha ha."
"What did you do to me? What is happening to m...... Ha Ha... What, why am I...Ha Ha. I CAN'T STOP, HE HE HA HA HA HA, AH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA Ha ha ha............
*Silence*
"Well, there goes my afternoon. Frank! Gonzo! Get in here and get rid of this space occupier before he starts to smell. Give him the Bud and Lou, they haven't been fed in a while, ha ha."
