"A soul in tension -- that's learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try"
Le mois d'octobre est arrivé. J'pense bien que c'est le temps de mettre de nouvelles photos.
En septembre 2009, j'ai donné sur ma page Facebook une séance photo à un des membres. C'est Valérie qui fut la gagnante. Après discussion sur un moment où nous serions tous les deux disponibles, nous avons procédé au shooting presque 11 mois plus tard. Voici une de mes préférées de la journée.

October is here. I guess it's time for some new pictures!
In september 2009, I gave on my Facebook page a shooting session to one of the members. Valérie won. After discussing a moment when we would both have time , we proceeded with the shooting 11 months later. Here is one of my favorite from that day.
I had wolfed down my supper, grabbed one DSLR and one lens to go along with it, and soaked up the still-warm, still-summer evening. The sky was overcast, trapping a layer of humidity on the ground like a suffocating blanket. Still better than freezing to death in the winter, I suppose.

I would like to announce that I'll be starting "Tips on Tuesday" Every Tuesday. The first one will start today because my card is on the blog at Hero Arts. When you visit my blog you will be able to see how I made this heart with so much dimension. I'll also be offering up some blog candy tomorrow. I hope you'll check it out!

Trying to get back into a lot of things. Including my art. Small steps, everyday.
(Don't count this photo as a step.)
Juvenile male Victoria's Riflebird, learning and practising courtship display moves by taking over a courtship display pole when it isn't occupied by an adult male. The juvenile male doesn't get his full velvet black plumage until between 5 and 7 years old. This one is closer to adulthood than previous juvenile males I've posted doing similar displays.

Learning the difficult task of using your trunk to drink (~40,000 muscles to figure out!).
Inlet off the Zambezi River near Chiawa Camp, Lower Zambezi National Park.
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
No navigator to guide my way home
Unladened, empty and turned to stone
A soul in tension that's learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
I'm learning to fly but I ain't got wings
Comin' down is the hardest thing
Well the good old days may not return
And the rocks might melt, and the sea may burn

Students at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College are learning how to climb and work on telephone poles.
Continuing on with the old American road trip shots from 2006 - (pre-digital camera remember!) - we now have left Tombstone and headed north through the wonderful State of Arizona.
During the journey north we happened to stumble upon this place on highway 180 - America's only White Buffalo Ranch! It's geo-tagged about as perfect as I can get it & here's a link also:
www.sacredwhitebuffalo.org/index.html
It's basically a pretty big farm that's a sanctuary to the rare white buffalos - plus they had a donkey, goat and other animals. It's a great visit - sounds lame ass I know - but it was a great place to see during the journey.
This image was taken from their car park, just along the highway and next to their gift shop. Basically, I got out the car and was blown away by the vast open views and their mountains! Shame I didn't have a digital camera, eh :(
Okay breaking news --> this image was NOT done on the iPhone!!! Yup, you hear me right - I know everything lately has been made on this tiny little device that's making up for my lack of a modern computer!! But this was done entirely on my old Mac.
I made it using layers in Photoshop Elements v4 with a free lowres texture i found whilst googling (and yes, version 4 is the newest release I could get for my PPC Mac!). I've never used layers or textures before ......but....... I'm pretty happy with the results! Of course, comments and advice welcome. I must also say a huge thank you to Patty for her help and video tutorials. Cheers Patty :-) :-)
I've a couple more blurry images from this day coming up soon and then we're off to the meteor crater site as we continued on with the 2006 road trip! :-)
Thanks everyone.
This was the first class for many of the young flyers.

Our backyard.........
As the sun set, I took 229 photos of this spot for a photo challenge I've joined, and in the end I didn't use any of them. I love these Tibetan prayer flags I strung up at the river edge, and the shadow they left on the snow. But somehow none of the photos were quite right for what I wanted. I learned a lot though - and will go back out at sunset on a sunny day and see if I can get what I want. With thanks to Charles Mercer, and Photocoach in Hout Bay South Africa for the challenge !!
