"Will Tahu find the humility and patience to earn deeper knowledge of fire and learn that not everything can be taken by force?"
Fourth creature of the series to make the G2 creatures into large and powerful elemental masters. Ikir came to completion in one day after I began tinkering with his head design. It's a good feeling when a moc comes together straightforwardly.
As usual, I recycled the head, but gave the creature different eyes from the rest. Boat studs made for great bird eyes in this case.
With Ikir, I thought that Tahu's challenge is basically the fact that he can't reach the flying bird. Assuming Tahu is fairly hot tempered, his trial is to learn that he can't simply force and take everything he wants. Instead, with Ikir, he must learn to earn, wait, give and compromise until he finds the connection he needs with Ikir.
The Science Picnic of Polish Radio and the Copernicus Science Centre.
The event was held at the national stadium in Warsaw. As usual at such events it was full of kids and lots of colorful balloons.
As you can see the Science Picnic in my eyes looks very... Strange ?
Shrimp tails are often left on for several reasons, including enhancing flavor, improving presentation, and providing a practical handle for eating.
Flavor Enhancement
Leaving the tails on shrimp can enhance the overall flavor of the dish. The shells, including the tails, contain water-soluble compounds that contribute to the shrimp's umami taste. When cooked, these compounds can infuse the dish with a richer seafood essence, especially in slow-cooked preparations like broths or sauces.

--------------------------------
The tradition-rich history of Gerbeaud began in 1858 with Henrik Kugler, the third descendent of a confectionery dynasty. During his years of travel and as an apprentice, Kugler perfected his specialized knowledge of his art in eleven European metropolises, including Paris. The influence of this experience is recognizable to this day.
Kugler opened his first café on what is now József nádor Square. Because of the tastefully furnished salon, the assortment of Chinese and Russian tea specialities, and „the best ice-creams in Pest,” it soon became a wellknown meeting place. In 1870, Henrik Kugler moved his business to Vörösmarty Square, where he could offer his delicacies from the centre of the city.
Kugler’s frothy coffee with chocolate, his special liqueurs and his bon-bons drew in crowds. The Kugler tortes and mignons were not only well-loved, but could be wrapped on a paper tray to take-away, an innovation of Kugler’s.
Famous personalities such as Ferenc Deák and Ferenc Liszt were among the patrons of the café. In 1881, Kugler’s was called „the meeting point of six elegant worlds.”
Henrik Kugler met Emil Gerbeaud for the first time in 1882, in Paris. He invited him a year later to Budapest in order to make him his business partner. Born in Geneva, and like Kugler, coming from a family of confectioners, he travelled as a young man to England, France and Germany, acquiring international experience. He settled in St. Étienne and married Ester Ramseyer the daughter of yet another confectioner and chocolate producer of Saint-Imiér.
In 1884, he entered Kugler’s business, which he gradually overtook. Gerbeaud’s extraordinary talent and his enterprising spirit gave the business added impetus, and accounted for the unique success story of Gerbeaud‘s. Emil Gerbeaud took on a great number of new employees in both sales and service. He introduced numerous innovations: he included among the café’s offerings exceptional, new products, he created hundreds of biscuits, sweets, bon-bons and cherry liqueur bon-bons.
He equipped his bakery with modern machines. By the end of the century, he had approximately 150 employees, many of whom had come to Budapest specifically to work for him. The name Gerbeaud soon become wellknown and espected. With good businness sense, Emil Gerbeaud continued for decades to use the name of his predecessor, Henrik Kugler. His quality was of the highest order. His baked goods were beautifully decorated, his sweets and bon-bons were packaged in artistic paper boxes of his own design. He strove to make a visit to Gerbeaud an experience for his guests.
Gerbeaud was granted valuable awards at numerous exhibitions. World Fair in Brussels and the 1900 Paris Exposition, he was invited to be a member of the jury, and was awarded the French Legion of Honour. Gerbeaud’s lucky star continued to shine ever wider and brighter. After the death of Henrik Kugler in 1908, Gerbeaud established a public limited company under the name „Kugler’s Successor Gerbeaud.” He also kept an eye on the changes in his steadily modernising world: from 1909, there were spaces for both horse-drawn carriages and automobiles in the parking area of the café.
The plans for the interior decoration of the café were completed by the artisan Henrik Darilek in the years after 1910. Fine woods, marble and bronze were used. The ceilings were decorated with rococo plaster work in Louis XV style; the chandeliers and wall lamps were created in Maria
Theresa Style. Gerbeaud had secessionist style tables sent from the Paris World Fair so that the elegant ambiance would be perfect. During this time, however, the effects of the First World War were felt ever more strongly, even in the Gerbeaud House.
Although Emil Gerbeaud survived the difficult war years, he died on November 8, 1919.
His wife Esther took an active part in the management of the business until 1940, always careful to maintain its high standards. At her death, her contemporaries said of her: "She will no longer sit there with her creamy-white hair, in her silk dresses, to control whether or not the coffee with whipped cream in the fine China cups is served promptly and tastefully, and whether the silver tray under the chocolate is shiny enough."
Emil Gerbeaud was an enigmatic personality. His secret lay in his constant attention to the quality and perfection of his products. He was an artist in his profession, whose new ideas
continually developed. To his splendid café he brought a French spirit and a Parisian atmosphere, which was happily embraced by the Pest public.
Over the past century and a half, Gerbeaud Café has numbered among its guests the cream of society and practically every famous person who has visited Budapest. A few impressive names from our guest register: Empress Elizabeth of the Austro-Hungarian Empire; Ferenc Deák; Franz Liszt: King George of Great Britain; Edward, Prince of Wales; Josephine Baker. More recently, Princess Diana, Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands, Queen Elizabeth II, former Austrian chancellor Franz Vranitzky, former Czech president Vacláv Hável. And from the world of stars: Madonna, Ralph Fiennes, Melanie Griffith, Antonio Banderas, Brad Pitt...
In the 1980s much weird folk roamed the streets of the USA, but some stood out even in that candy-colored time. Those were the heroes and villains known as the Mighty Misfits!
Beakon
Did you ever hear a pecking noise on your roof at night? It might be a giant yellow bird-ish man, known as Beakon! Aspiring to be a signal of hope for men and birds alike, Beakon hops from roof to roof to catch burglars, cats and other scum before they can hurt one more feathery friend!
Which part of him is man and which is bird could not yet be determined, however.
Cabbage Man
One day, Cabbage Man was sick of the food culture he saw around him. Everyone was turning vegetarian! No one, except Cabbage Man, seemed to understand that vegetables are so much more suited for fighting crime than eating them! So he geared up, packed his greens, and went out on the streets, always equipped with the freshest, healthiest food - to throw it at the bad guys!
Sometimes, it was debated whether he should rather be called Lettuce Man, and due to his philosophy of never giving interviews, the matter could never be settled, leaving the newspapers in despair.
Wicked Wingspan
Not your usual crazy scientist with the awesome tech, Wicked Wingspan is not actually able to fly. His suit is just that fancy - and includes invisible stilts (he found at a dumpster one day). Also, his master plan to spray everyone around with bronzer never quite works out, because he can’t seem to figure out how to get it under people’s clothes. But he really believes in it, and one day he will find the actual scientist with the knowledge to help him get it done!
The Moist Menace
Breaking onto the crime fighting scene as a three-eyed fish with dangerous … water guns, I guess? …, The Moist Menace fights crime not out of moral conviction, but because he wants to be the only villain in town! That’s right, the guy is part of the team of heroes only as long as the crazy dude with the flappy wings is history. Everybody knows that for he never tires to claim superiority of his evil creativity over Wicked Wingspan’s. However, no one quite beliefs it or simply doesn’t care. Once, it was rumored that Menace’s secret identity was an actual person, but it seems pretty obvious that he is just a fish with the usual two eyes.
Princess Candypop
Nobody ever looked that sweet when fighting crime! Princess Candypop may strike some as just a usual young woman, but with a piece of her special cherry gummy candy, she develops super human strength and shining purple eyes in an instant! And what better to do with this power than make the world a happier place! Ironically, the crime rate apparently has risen since Princess Candypop appeared on the streets, because many young men yearn for a chance to meet this lovely young lady, even if that means breaking the law.

Always good storm chasing stories to tell about my weather adventures in 2014.
Days right after my knee operated on... Home from the hospital & I definitely wasn't supposed to be out and about. Knee was almost in a cast and I wasn't supposed to be doing anything to aggravate the situation. Though my quest for severe weather never ends and I wasn't going to miss another possible chase especially when its in my backyard. This storm was going to be a photogenic monster... Decision was made & off I went.
Personal Note *** On the original set Back in 2014 I had use the free Avery photo editor here Flickr and it wasn't the best but I had no prior knowledge of editing them back then. Only shot in .jpg format and I didn't do the best by over coloring and over saturation. Was very under experienced in photo editing back then.
This is the original set of captures from this day. There are some here that are edited but most of them are not altered here. Another epic set of thunderstorm captures from South Central Nebraska.
By going out ... I paid for it. Soreness without relief for a few days after this shoot. Knee after the surgery was super sore with lots of swelling. All worth it when it comes to what epic views I caught storm chasing on that particular day!

I am so happy these are all completed. This is not how they will be displayed in the Container but I like this arrangement as well.
I have a series of posts on my blog for further details about this project.

10 Year Project
Each month I take a favourite photo from ten years back, and re-edit it, using current tools and knowledge.
Brightened, contrasted, textured... but most importantly straightened. This one might mean more to me now that I am 63 myself. :-)

are printed books days numbered?
I've been running out of places to store my books but since I bought a kobo hd glo I don't think I'll ever have that problem.
this kobo can store more than 3000 books at any one time, that's more space than I will ever need and I don't have to worry about eye strain that you get from other device. e ink is the way forward for me.
sb700 and a shoot through umbrella were used to light the subject.
A veces no puedo evitarlo, están ahí y necesitan salir, necesitan expresarse, reprimirlas nunca será una buena alternativa... emociones.
Sometimes I can't help it, they are there and they need to get out, they need to express themselves, repressing them will never be a good alternative... emotions
Wilyakali:
Wilyakali lies in the east of the state of South Australia, crossing into New South Wales, including the town of Broken Hill. The Wilyakali people traditionally visited the Paakantji people on the Menindee Lakes in the Darling Riverine Plains Bioregion each year.
The three Major language groups for the Broken Hill Region are the Paakantji, Mayyankapa, and Nyiimpaa.
Wilyakali and Danggali both lie east of the Ngadjuri language and north of the upper River Murray languages.
Wilyakali and Danggali are part of the Darling River Language Group or Paakantyi / Paakantji language group. This is a group of closely related languages in South Australia and New South Wales, which can be subdivided into two groups: the “Northern Dialects” and the “Southern Dialects.” Wilyakali and Danggali are both part of the “Southern Dialects.”
Other “Southern Dialects” include Pulaali, Southern Pankantyi, Pantyikali, Wanyuparlku and Marrawarra. Some of these languages have been recorded more than others. Although each language has its own distinguishing features, they are so similar they can be understood by speakers of other languages in this group. Therefore, the following reference list will include Southern Paakantyi references that may be helpful. The language name is noted in square brackets after each reference, when known.
Today the Wilyakali people are still the main Aboriginal group in Broken Hill, though there are a number of Aboriginal people that come from other language groups.
The Aboriginal people of Broken Hill have established working parties to pursue their vision of a better future. They continue to look after their traditional lands and are joint managers of the Mutawintji National Park which is the first national park handed back to the traditional owners in New South Wales. There are many strong elders who continue to maintain and pass on their traditional knowledge to their young people and, today, share their stories with the wider community.
Danggali:
The Danggali nation is located across plains southwest of Broken Hill from near Tandou Lake, southwestward to Mount Bryan and Burra Creek, northwest of Morgan, South Australia, chiefly in the more arid country extending generally eastward to within a few miles of the Darling River.
For most of the year, Danggali people depended on water from the roots of water mallee trees but came in to the Anabranch of the Darling in dry times. Eyre (1845) gives the general term Paritke for these scrub dwellers west and northwest of the Murray. Their language name was Jakumban and they extended eastward to the Darling. They were known farther east as the Jokajoka or Jakojako, a term based on ['ja:ko] their word for 'no.' Richardson indicated them as extending westward, presumably in the scrub country north of the Murray, as far as North West Bend.
Walyakali is to the north of Danggali. Wilyakali and Danggali both lie east of the Ngadjuri language and north of the upper River Murray languages. Wilyakali and Danggali are part of the Darling River Language Group or Paakantyi / Paakantji language group. This is a group of closely related languages in South Australia and New South Wales, which can be subdivided into two groups: the “Northern Dialects” and the “Southern Dialects.” Wilyakali and Danggali are both part of the “Southern Dialects.”
Other “Southern Dialects” include Pulaali, Southern Pankantyi, Pantyikali, Wanyuparlku and Marrawarra. Some of these languages have been recorded more than others. Although each language has its own distinguishing features, they are so similar they can be understood by speakers of other languages in this group. Therefore, the following reference list will include Southern Paakantyi references that may be helpful. The language name is noted in square brackets after each reference, when known.

I have just submitted this one as an entry to "Your city in Your eyes" contest in Dhahran - Saudi Arabia.
This tower is the symbol of the university. I tried to take the shot from an angle that I think was "interesting"...I hope you find it so!

This colorful installation on the waterside of the Jonas Daniel Meijerplein can photographed in different ways. According to the artist the best point of view are to look through the rings. I chose to do this in conjunction with another light scultpure next to the Hortus Botanicus garden, Friendala. Both part of the Water Colors boat tour but also part of the Illuminade walking route.
Amsterdam Light Festival
The fourth edition for this Winter event in the city of Amsterdam. No longer do we have to dread the dark winter months in Amsterdam. Thanks to Amsterdam Light Festival, Amsterdam is transformed every year into a true city of lights with the help of contemporary (inter)national light artists. During this annual festival for young and old, both the residents of Amsterdam and the city’s many visitors are treated to a spectacle of light. At the same time, the festival offers talented (young) light artists a platform to present their latest work.
This year, the 55-day festival is dedicated to theme 'Friendship' and can be visited from 28 November 2015 to 17 January 2016. Water Colors will take place from 28 November 2015 to 17 January 2016 and the walking route Illuminade will take place from 10 December 2015 to 3 January 2016. Let's celebrate the winter together with art, light and water!

Bands of Friendship
Artist: Vikas Patil & Santosh Gujar [ Light designer & architect ]
Location: Jonas Daniel Meijerplein
Bands of Friendship, created by the two Indian architects Vikas Patil and Santosh Gujar, is a nice reflection of how people from outside the EU look at this continent, i.e. with hope and appreciation. The project is based on a typically present-day phenomenon: the colourful bands of friendship girls and boys (and also many men and women) wear around their wirsts to confirm their friendship or to show that they’re supporting a good cause. These are the bands of friendship the title refers to, nine of them in as many colours.
Bands of Friendship symbolizes endless friendship and has been positioned in such a way that the spectator may look at them from different angles with changing meanings from every perspective. If you look at them sidelong, the rings are still separate, individual and unattached, independent like the countries within the European Union. But move aside, and slowly but surely the rings become attached; the Union gains form. A few more steps bring you right in front of the entrance to the rings and you look into the multicoloured tunnel of progress and prosperity, the ideal Europe stands for. The artists, both architects, hope that this work, abstract and figurative at the same time, will incite people on the one hand, to enlarge their own circle of friends as much as possible, and on the other hand to remain positive about Europe’s ideals.
Vikas Patil is an architect and light designer from India. After obtaining his Master’s degree from the Istituto Europeo di Design in Milan, he worked on several projects in India, Europe and various Arabic countries. Patil has continued to develop his passion for lighting design while working as the director of the Mumbai-based Studio ALBA Lighting Design since 2011.
The Indian architect Santosh Gujar studied architecture at the Sir JJ College of Architecture in Mumbai. In his current position as consulting architect, he often works with small architecture firms, enabling him to share his knowledge on design issues and regional development. Gujar and Patil complement each other with regards to aesthetic and technical matters.
