another shoot today with Anthony, only a quick one though ^_^

 

this is a massive crop of the original >_<

 

I exhibited this at Salisbury Arts Centre Thursday 2nd October - Saturday 1st November 2008.

 

The print it's self is 30x30 cm, (35x35cm including the frame) and is from a limitied edition of 4. Conditions of the exhibition is for the work to be smaller than 40x40cm (including a frame) hence the small print.

 

Print is up for sale.

I often drive by perfect scenes or interesting settings and add them to my mental "I have to photograph that" list. On this day, I grabbed an old Nikon D700 we have at work and tromped out into the snowy field to photograph the little schoolhouse around sunset. Read all about it.

 

It's funny someone posted THAT sign to a run-down, abandoned schoolhouse.

"Keep Breathing"

A glint of sunshine, fresh air, beauty, and listen to nature's very own music.

The nature doesn't hurry yet everything is accomplished.

Look deeper and you will understand everything better, take a quite walk with mother nature, it will nurture your mind, body & soul.

Always keep going. Never settle.

 

This is at the intersection of 77 and Welch right near the observatory.

Que la brisa se cuele por la ventana y de un toque de amor entre tanta soledad.

台南站前圓環的夜景,可謂台南必拍的夜景點。

Why the title? Well for some tangential reason Robert Crumb, the cartoonist, popped into my head when I saw this guy.

 

Call it a lapse in my synapse, call it a link to the graphics course I took in the 70s when I discovered I was quite talentless. :D

 

Whatever, it reminded ME of Robert Crumb. Happy Weekend!

Divide, CO - Sometimes you walk into a room and the ambiance just makes you want to stop, and calmly exhale.

 

I'm pretty horrible when it comes to playing pool, but it doesn't keep me from enjoying it. In fact most sports I really enjoy playing that require some sort of coordination I'm terrible at. I may not be able to hit a golf ball straight but I can brew a mean* beer!

 

* - Yes a beer that is mean; it doesn't like pants, acts like a jerk in front of elephants and skydives over Houston.

 

The sun was hitting the top of the pool table which blasted a green color cast everywhere. In hindsight I should have thrown a flash in the room to clean it up. But I didn't and that's alright with me.

But I managed to conduct myself with a modicum of dignity while shopping. I’m S L O W L Y getting the hang of hair care and hoping my styling appointment this month will create some “look” I can live with. The close up was the last of the day (checking I’m not too swollen for a previous worn outfit), but it gives a glimpse as to what I’m working towards, a soft, (obvious feminine) sweep. I’ve more than enough “body” but less “coverage” than I prefer. Not sure I want bangs, but have to keep it age appropriate (without the purple wash, thank you). I’ve managed to get slight control over my weight- the wrinkles are a lost cause. Love love love❤️

Keep those lazy eyes open! For when the sun frames a picture perfect.

Thank my dad. My father was a photographer and owned a photo studio when I was a child. This picture was taken by my father about fifty years ago with his Nikon F. I remade this picture from my album by my sony A6000. I miss him though he passed away when I studied in high school, I never forget his smiles and will keep using his Nikon F for any touching stories.

An entry into the large Misc. Category of the CCC. Snowy Castle dioramas have long been my favorite subject matter, so this was an extraordinarily fun build. This is my largest irregular base build to date, and features a full interior throughout the whole keep. The rockwork was made using my technic brick design, which you can see a tutorial on, here: www.flickr.com/photos/66620538@N04/albums/72157652122462202

The large pine tree design was borrowed from Shawn Kelly, he made a tutorial which you can see here: www.flickr.com/photos/utinni/albums/72157649431583611

 

There are lots of pictures here: www.brickbuilt.org/?p=1877

 

This is my final entry for the CCC, hope you like it :)

This is my latest keep for King Cormac and the Crown. It's my largest layout to date. I'll echo what I've said in the past: The more pieces I get, the bigger I'll make 'em.

 

DawnShire Keep is still my only creation to ever be blogged by the brothers brick. Still, many people were disappointed in it. I decided that after I bought the new King's Castle set, I would remake it. So, here you go.

Be sure to respect the crown.

 

Macro Mondays - Keep it Clean

with Q tips.

 

Living in a state that is really flat in most Places around the coast, I am used to roads being very straight, and not having to deal with the kind of things people deal with in states like Tennessee and North Carolina. They actually make roads that go uphill off the highways, designed exclusively to help "runaway trucks" come to a stop! Going downhill and riding your brakes just can't be done, or you can lose those brakes! Trucks have off roads where it's safer for them to barrel in, knowing that the incline will help them should they get into trouble and be unable to brake.

 

Once I was riding in North Carolina when my then fiance, David, made a comment, "You smell that? That's the smell of a truck about to lose its brakes". Going downhill and trying to slow tons of big rig down is really dangerous. There's a learning curve when it comes to driving in mountainous areas.

 

One of the prettiest views I've ever seen, this mountain pass was exactly what I'd hoped to see on the return trip from Bristol, Tennessee.

 

This shot was taken at a scenic overlook that I believe was in North Carolina.

Another building being boarded up to keep unsheltered people unsheltered.

'Keep Reddish Tidy' exhorts a message on the overhead crane although the floor is still littered with major components such as the class 76 pantograph roof section and oil drums. 40 026 was the only class 40 in the 40 010 to 40 035 batch not to be named after a liner but was due to carry the name 'Media' after a Cunard Line ship.

No. 9. I really like this shot. The lighting, the bokeh.......

It's a bumpy rider, but try to keep it together. (It was a good idea, but not as effective as I had hoped.) Shot in Thunderbird Show Park in 2018.

I shot this concept in April 2015, but I'm glad I've only finished the edit now. I have left it and come back to it countless times but I'm really happy with this.

 

It's amazing what clearing your head of what doesn't really matter can do for your focus.

 

Let me know what you think of this please! I always improve best from genuine feedback.

Our big dog Glory was extremely ill for the first time ever. Without going into the gory details, she became very weak at one point, not even able to keep water down and we didn't think she would make it. She's only 4 years old and very trim and active. It turned out to be a bad batch of dog food. I had purchased a different brand of dog food when my usual was out of stock. Only Glory ate it but picky Bean would not. The food is -- Purina ONE Beyond -- their premium and supposedly natural, health conscious recipe. It sounds good on paper and the ingredient list is very impressive but the reality is something different.

 

Checking online revealed some very disturbing things...recalls of dog and cat food, recalls of soy products used in pet foods due to contamination and hundreds of complaints for Purina dog and cat food in the past few months alone. And very sad and tragic stories...pets were dieing. They were getting sick, exactly like Glory, recovering and then going back on the food! These unfortunate people didn't suspect it could be the food. It was heartbreaking.

 

My daughter was distraught and when Glory was at the very worst she took it upon herself to send Purina a message via twitter "Purina you bastards, you're killing my dog, how do you put this crap in the stores!!!" I asked her not to send any more messages to large corporations like that without telling me first but what was done was done. She received a lot of replies from people who felt the same way - And minutes later a reply from good old Purina. "We care please call us at our toll free number..."

 

I put a call in to Purina that morning, I was told they have not had any complaints about the food. I said come on, there are hundreds if not thousands of complaints online in recent months, do you mean to tell me, mine is actually the first complaint to Purina, ever?!! He replied, it was the first complaint that HE personally had received THAT DAY! I didn't need that kind of doubletalk or free coupons. I just want you not to put garbage in a bag labeled dog food. Good luck Purina. I hope the information I gave you helps you solve your problem, but I doubt it.

 

Glory is now doing well and I'm just happy I realized it was the food and stopped giving it to her. My kids have a new appreciation for their dogs and how fragile life is, so that is one good thing to come from this ordeal. I'm sorry this is so long but maybe it will help save a few pets. If your pet suddenly becomes sick please consider the food.
