Keeper's Pond is a man-made lake in Wales, also known as the Forge Pond or Pen-ffordd-goch Pond, located on the edge of the Blaenavon World Heritage Site. Originally built in the 19th century to supply water to the Garnddyrys Forge, it is now a popular spot for outdoor activities like walking and wild swimming, offering scenic views of the Brecon Beacons, particularly the Sugarloaf mountain.
While deleting some old photos, I was cleaning out a file labelled "Sort". Thought I'd keep this series. It was taking at a Photo show while testing some different modifiers. I didn't get her name.

I am majesty and a walker in the night.
I am a keeper of secrets and stealth.
I am a silent ruler of the darkness and trees.
I am leopard.
From the series "INTO AFRICA"
Leilani finely makes it to the dream Keeper to find a little dream birdie there as well.
Before Leilani ask the Dream Keeper starts to speak as if it all ready knows what she is here for. Its tells her that there is a power Man that had come to dream land for there is no time or aging with in the real of dreams and he is scared of the death that stalks him. The Dream Keeper all so told her not to go any were near him for he had become powerful from the fear he eats of the dreamers and before he learned how to eat fear he devoured 3 of the dream children he had found in the nightmare land.
Another poster in my little series. I still got more and have even more planned. This was a good chance to use some of the mini figures usually not featured in my builds.
Antelope Canyon, Arizona
I knew this shot was a "keeper" when i saw the preview in my LCD, however it was a bit underexposed - so I adjust shutter speed and open the shutter again, just in time for some tourist with a point and shoot to aim up into my shot and fire off his flash ruining that exposure as well. So after i growl at him and he walks away i go to try for a third time and i guess there was high winds blowing on the desert floor above because the upper layers of the canyon (where i am trying to shoot) start filling up with dust clouds and killing the scene i was trying to shoot and raining sand down on me and my camera. then i had to get out my lens brush and wait out the clouds of dust hoping they would clear and i could get my shot. so right about the time i get my lens clean the dust goes away and i recompose.... Great, now there appears to be some sort of bug that has moved into my scene and is glowing super bright in the thin layer of sunlight up there that was lighting my foreground, which is fleeting by the moment. so now i have to wait for this bug to quit flying around up there so i dont get a giant crazy-straw in the middle of my long exposure. Finally he went away, and i got my shot, just in time before someone came along and kicked my tripod.
This is why i say go to Lower Antelope Canyon. You have the place to yourself and you can take your time and relax and get better shots. Upper Antelope Canyon is a beautifully amazing place, but I am sorry to say the Navajo Indians have turned it into a single-file parade of idiots. I'd rather they charge three times as much for the tour and let 1/3 the amount of people inside at a time.
While it is important for people to see your promise you must also remember that hope is the keeper of both happiness and disappointment, the father of both progress and failure.

In North American Indian lore, the dragonfly is the essence of the winds of change, representing messages of wisdom and enlightenment; and communication from the elemental world. The dragonfly possesses the ability to see through illusion. They bring prosperity and harmony, and they teach skillful action while maintaining a free and joyful sense of being. The dragonfly brings the light and colour of transformation into your life.
This is for my lovely flickr friends, to give you all these good things in 2008 :)
Found a pretty song to go with this too! :)

keepers .... Located between houses number 27 and 30 along the embankment of the Griboedov Canal.
The axis of the bridge is oriented against the center of the gate of the State Assignation Bank - at the place where the channel, changing its direction, makes a turn. Near the bridge is located Kazan Cathedral.
Upstream is Kazansky Bridge, below - Flour Bridge.
The nearest metro station (410 m) is Nevsky Prospect-2, exit to the Griboedov Canal.
The bridge was named after the nearby Assignation Bank (now the building houses St. Petersburg State University of Economics)
The need to build a bridge was caused by the growth of population in the area adjacent to the Catherine Canal
The bridge project was developed by engineer Vasily Karlovich Tretter and Vasily Andreevich Khristianovich. Simultaneously with Bankovsky, a draft of a second chain footbridge across the canal, the Lion, was drafted. February 18, 1825, both projects were approved, in the summer of the same year, construction of the bridge began .It was supposed to complete the work by October of the same year, but because of the delay in the manufacture of the metal parts of the bridge, the assembly of the bridge began in the spring of 1826. For the construction of the pillars of the bridge, the embankment blocking was dismantled (without disassembling the granite facing) .The manufacture of cast iron and metal parts, as well as the assembly of elements at the construction site, was carried out by the Byrd plant .On July 24, 1826, the bridge was opened to traffic .
Angular sculptures of winged lions (often mistakenly called griffins) by sculptor Pavel Petrovich Sokolov brought particular fame to the bridge. The mythical winged lions, whose images were previously found only in the decoration of furniture and architectural details, were first cast in enormous sizes and decorated the street]. Work on the creation of models from May to September 1825, also a sculptor made alabaster forms.
The sculpture was supposed to be minted from copper sheets, but then the figures were cast from cast iron at the Aleksandrovsky Iron Foundry, the wings were chiseled from copper sheet and covered with gold leaf .
During the operation of the bridge, the cast-iron rails were replaced by iron forged, very primitive designs, lanterns over the heads of the lions were broken .
In 1949, on the initiative of Lenmostotrest and by the project of architect Alexander Lukich Rotach and technician G. F. Perlina, the Office for Architecture Affairs drew up an architectural planning task for the restoration of the bridge in order to return it to its original appearance .In the same year, the wooden canvas of the bridge was overhauled .
In 1951-1952, round lanterns on the heads of lions and a metal fence were restored. The gratings of the bridge were made by the workshops of the Higher School of Industrial Art named. V.I. Mukhina In 1967 and 1988, the gilding of lion wings was restored .In 1997, the sculptures were repaired and the rail grille was restored.
In 2009, gold was scraped off the wings of the newly restored lions [.In 2011, for the period of repairing the emergency section of the embankment of the canal, two sculptures of lions were in protective cases.
In September 2015, St. Petersburg State Unitary Enterprise Mostotrest began work on the replacement of wooden flooring of the bridge.
On January 19, 2017, the griffins from the Bank Bridge were taken away for restoration. The ferry itself was overhauled. June 19, 2019 the bridge was solemnly opened after restoration.
Single-span suspension bridge. The span structure consists of two chains, pendants, and wooden linen. The role of the pylons is performed by decorated with sculpture cast iron frames (frames) attached by anchor bolts through the masonry to a wooden grillage compressed above and below by massive cast iron plates to which the supporting chains are attached .Chains consist of metal links of circular cross section. The wooden canvas of the bridge consists of girders, crossbars, cross ties and flooring.
At the entrances to the bridge on the cast-iron pedestals installed sculptures of winged lions. The wings of griffins and some details of the bridge are covered with gilding. On the heads of the sculptures there are fixtures in the form of truncated balls of milky glass with an upper cast ornamental cover made of bronze alloy .
The art of casting railing is a semicircular section with radially spaced rods connected by curved inserts.The picture of the fence resembles the railing of the Demidov Bridge.
The width of the bridge between the railing is 1.85 m, the bridge length is 20.1 (25.2) m, the distance between the axes of the chains is 2.24 m
