" I had entrusted Quality Taxidermy to mount my 10.5 ft gator head to commemorate a fantastic animal and one of the greatest hunting experiences of mine. When I got the gator head back I was shocked at how bad the quality was. It did not look real at all (looked fake) and it had cracks all over it and in places chunks of it were falling out. Worse of all it smelled horrible (not a chemical odor - like bacteria ridden putrid rotting flesh)! The smell was so bad that the gator mount could not be kept in the house, so it was relegated to the garage. However, the smell was so terrible that it was too much for even the garage, so it went into the outside tool shed, basically a waste of money and trophy. When I called to complain they told me "well, it stank when it got here..." no joke. Two years later it still stinks."
Maybe there's a reason they went out of business?
Getting wet in The Gorge. From a fun day last spring hanging out with friends Jared Atencio, Will Shieh and Jamey Pyles.

I couldn't sleep this morning and got up for a sunrise which didn't look promising. So I decided to try and catch some Dragonflies, just after sunrise and hope they were less active than I've found so far this year. All I managed to find was this male Broad-bodied Chaser [Libellula depressa] though I did manage my first close shot at the venue.
Sorry for being MIA lately, I have just moved back to Sydney and I'm only now starting to unpack and get my things sorted. I've started working on my doll display shelf too, which I am very excited about. It does seem, however, that I am short of 5 clover stands. Does anyone have any spare, lol?
My Nanny always called them this..They are from Spiderwort family..The feathery plumage of the stamens are amazing to me..The Bumble Bees love them as well as other nectar gatherers..
James shoots Y164 as it comes up 4 track at HX. Personally, I had already been feeling awful that morning, and the unusually cold and damp weather added to the overall shitty atmosphere. I had to get away.
I could make you happy
Make your dreams come true
Nothing that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends
Of the Earth for you
To make you feel my love, To make you feel my love
An alternative for my push from Heather (quarter.century) in Round 9 in the group Get pushed.

Ohh, and - HSS!!
A trio of Delaware-Lackawanna MLW/ALCOs was sitting out a hot Sunday afternoon at Bridge 60 in Scranton.
M630 3007 is a recent arrival that was used by General Electric for testing purposes. It was built by MLW in 1970 for Pacific Great Eastern before becoming a British Columbia motor and then to GE in Erie.
The old gray motor found its way to Scranton in 2017 and was about to get quite a bath as a thunderstorm rolled into the Electric City.
This blue mist flower is growing at Drumlin Farm Wildlife Sanctuary, where there is a large farm field.
I fell into a funk this winter. The best medicine? Grab my camera, drive around town randomly, and grab some photos. More on the blog.

I am sorry to spoil you with these not-perfect-in-focus-cherry-shots. But that's life, you can't always get what you want... In fact these are the same cherries (i think) but just in a different puddle on a different time.
About an hour after the rain of the other picture there was the brightest sunlight from the side but the puddles were still in the gutter.
So I went downstairs on the street, grabbed the cherries and put them into the light. I increased the saturation and cropped the picture, that's about it with the processing.
