It's a known fact, once the sun sets the city of Gotham faces a rise in crime. Even the most kindest citizens turn to criminal tactics to help save society from all that is wrong... One of those citizens is known as, "The Grappler."

This gun is amazing, pulls you up the side of buildings, can double/triple grapple, lifts you up n top of buildings. Super fun and easy to use. Beautiful construction and all around awesome. Highly recommend.

It's a steep sunny slope leading down to the river, and not one you want to traverse, unless your desire is to roll down to the river. Actually, during the summer months, many a youngster will grapple down to the river to get to the swimming holes. I'm too old for that now, so I choose to sit back and smell the spring flowers. l have a real Ferdinand the Bull attitude these days. "Ferdinand the Bull" was my favorite childhood story. My mom read it to me, and I read it to my kids. I always liked the thought of him sitting under that cork tree in Spain peacefully sniffing the flowers. Now I'm off for a good sit and sniff.

 

Nevada County CA

On this day, a large cold upper level low moved in from California and initiated high wind warnings over much of Arizona (I received gusts to 40 mph). Just after this system passed, temperatures dropped from the mid 40's to 32F with a wintery mix of rain/snow, grapple, ice pellets, etc. The odd looking cloud at center could have been hiding a cold funnel since I observed a weak rotation.

The Selkies Call

Selkie mythology, much like existentialist philosophy, grapples with profound questions of identity, freedom, alienation, and the ongoing search for meaning. Selkies, embodying a dual nature that forces them to exist between two worlds, directly confronts the existentialist struggle to find authenticity and reconcile their place in a world that imposes societal expectations. Moreover, these creatures' ability to reclaim their seal skins becomes a powerful metaphor for the existential emphasis on individual freedom and the necessity of autonomous choice in a world devoid of certainty. Yet, as beings caught between the human and animal realms, selkies experience profound feelings of alienation and displacement, mirroring the existentialist exploration of isolation and the longing for connection in a vast and seemingly indifferent world. The rich symbolism inherent in the Selkie myth—their longing for the sea, their struggles with belonging—mirrors expressionism's use of symbolic imagery and allegory to convey deeper truths about the human condition.

A quick build multi-purpose robot. Maybe a little influenced by the "Loaders" in the Bordarlands video games. I have wanted to try those hands and head ideas for a while now. .

This pic was basically a test of my photoshop skills and I think the floating stormtrooper came out pretty good even though the reflection got kinda weird, but I need to work on the lightsaber effects.

A grapple, (a real word) is, or was, an attempt to entice more children to eat fruit. An apple was "soaked" in grape juice so that the apple was infused with grape flvouring.

 

One thing I did notice when setting up this shot was that having cut the apple in half and scooped out the core so that the grape could sit in the middle, a few minutes had gone by, 5 at the most, and the apple was alread going brown from the centre.

I kept putting off uploading this shot because the Goshawks were a bit distant. But it is such an unusual shot with one bird flying upside down and raising its talons, that I had to post it. These are both immature Goshawks tussling over a territory, with the Peak District Moors in the background. I almost called it a dogfight, and the dictionary does define dogfight as close combat with two aircrafts. Why dogfight though? Well the etymology suggests that a fight between two women was known as a catfight, and as most fighter pilots were men, they called aircraft battles dogfights. It also mentions the similarity to two dogs chasing each other's tail.

I mentioned recently that Black-tailed Godwits spent a lot of time fighting, and someone asked if it was like sword fighting. Well not really as this one had jumped on the other one's back and was nipping or plucking, I'm not sure which. But the victim was giving a great display of his wing bar and tail pattern. If you are questioning my choice of crop, I didn't have a choice as this was straight off the camera. I was using a 700mm prime and they were right in front of the hide. The Black-tailed Godwits were keeping company with Ruff, which are famously pugnacious. Yet the Ruffs seemed perfectly chilled while the Godwits grappled. It surprised me as all of the Godwits (and Ruffs) were in non-breeding plumage so should not have high levels of testosterone at this time of year. This was taken at Martin Mere in Lancashire.
