When a Bird is alive... it eats Ants,
When the Bird is Dead... Ants eat the Bird!
Time & Circumstances can change at any time...!
Don't devalue or Hurt anyone in life.
You may be powerful today.. But Remember,
Time is more powerfull than you!!!
one tree makes a million match sticks...
but when time comes..
only one match stick is needed... to burn million of trees!!
So be Good and do Good...
A thought occurred to me yesterday:
If you get to paradise but those who made the most inhospitable of places home are not there with you... are you there yet?
Inspired by British Columbia's flag, the early morning sun, and blood orange juice...
It goes without saying its about time something were dedicated to Phil.

“When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. Think of it – always.” ~ Mahatma Gandhi.
What the Ukrainians are doing now continues in a long line of struggles for freedom in Eastern Europe. We must be inspired by their example to work in whatever way we can to bring freedom and liberation to all people. Resist the tyrants and they will fall.
***BOYCOTT THIS GROUP!**********
I have been banned from a little group called "Worldwide Photography" for posting my opposition to Putin's War in Ukraine. This was just a summary decision announced in this thread.

According to this Admin speaking out against an unjust war is "hate speech". This Admin Putin-lover has even said he will report us to Flickr. If this idiot (Stalin called Western fellow travellers "useful idiots") can't distinguish between a just and unjust cause it shows how deeply flawed and ready for total collapse our Western civilization is. I strongly suggest you boycott this group.
When you check out the Admin's own page you will see it is full of pro-Russian images. www.flickr.com/photos/-eu
I've blocked him as well.

A young bait shop owner tries out new fishing lures on Lake Michigan. Meanwhile, boats gather from the big lake, to begin passage through the channel to Muskegon Lake. While an astute listener takes it all in, for a Fishing Lesson.
Bathroom items, drawn using "finding squares" set up. I am still getting used to using a double page spread and very much distracted by the seam, so I used my Corel to get rid of the shadow and line on this. The seam accounts for much of the wonkyness of the soap distributer , but not all of it! :>}
Lesson #1: Don't underexpose your film...
Luckily, I still have one more roll of this.

We had just finished a wonderful tall mast sunset sailboat cruise this summer in Sister Bay, Wisconsin, and were walking back to the car. I happened to turn around and see this scene unfolding. I grabbed my camera one more time and ran down to the docks to capture this wonderful scene of a Father teaching his kids to fish in the last of the evening light.
I have two left feet and he's trying to teach me not to step on toes.

Jean and headed out one day to shoot some wild horses she got a tip about. I'm not a horse person so I'm not really familiar with horse behavior and body language. What I can say was it was utterly amazing to stand in the middle of a heard of 200 or so wild horses and watch them interact. Most of the time they seemed to congregate in small bands of 3-8 individuals and peacefully graze. Once in a while an individual would stray and get too close to another pack. Sometimes a stern look or a few steps towards the intruder with would be enough. Other times a full blown chase would break out. In this case the offender tried to make a fast turn, skidded and fell on it’s ass. Teeth are a formidable weapon out here. A lesson is taught...a few new battle scars and the calm resumes for a few minutes.
I guess we all make mistakes, I would normally bin an image if I thought it was below standard and this one nearly went in the bin. The lesson is put all your settings back to the correct position before you leave for your chosen photography spot. When I got to this spot I dragged out of my bag the 16-35, when I last used it I had it on my tripod so switched off the stabalizer, I took a couple of shots with polarizer in place which looked fine on the LCD, I had walked a fair distance when I noticed I had not pushed that switch.
Having loaded that days shoot onto my computer I then could see how effective eight stops of camera and lens stabilization is and how you miss it when it is not there.
So here is the first shot the other has bitten the dust. Check everything.
This is Sandgate park near Storrington in Sussex, the little stream looked lovely with leaves floating in this one, the fairy bridge looked lovely over the stream too , the sky was a bland grey and light levels low. I made the best of this image it sure is not the best so a return visit will be made to make another go of it.
“On the evening of May 4, 1886, a tragedy of international significance unfolded in Chicago’s Haymarket produce district. An outdoor meeting had been hastily organized by anarchist activists to protest the violent death of workers during a labor lockout the previous day in another area of the city.
Spectators gathered in the street as speakers addressed political, social and labor issues from atop a freight wagon from the adjacent factory. When approximately 175 policemen approached with an order to disperse the meeting, a dynamite bomb was thrown into their ranks.
The identity and affiliation of the person who threw the bomb have never been determined; this anonymous act had many victims. From the blast and panic that followed, seven policemen and at least four civilian bystanders lost their lives, but the victims of the incident were not limited to those who died as a direct result of the bombing. In the aftermath, those who organized and spoke at the meeting – and others who held unpopular political viewpoints – were arrested, unfairly tried and, in some cases, sentenced to death even though none could be tied to the bombing itself.
Meeting organizers George Engel and Adolf Fisher along with speakers August Spies and Albert Parsons were put to death by hanging. Activist Louis Lingg died violently in jail prior to his scheduled execution. Meeting speaker Samuel Fielden, and activists Oscar Neebe and Michael Schwab were sentenced to prison, but later pardoned in 1893 bu Illinois Governor John Peter Altgeld, citing the injustices of their trial.
Over the years, the site of the Haymarket bombing has become a powerful symbol for a diverse cross-section of people, ideals and movements. Its significance touches on the issues of free speech, the right of public assembly, organized labor, the fight for the eight hour work day, law enforcement, justice, anarchy and the right of every human being to pursue an equitable and prosperous life. For all, it is a poignant lesson in the rewards and consequences inherent in such human pursuits..”

I was hoping that by having Brady watch Rocky dock dive he might get the hang of it but it didn't work. He just stood there wondering why this dog kept throwing himself off a perfectly good dock.
Fresno, Ca.
Basement utility area of the Cornerstone Church, formerly the Wilson Theater. Personally, I think I've found more than five ways, but I'm not exactly an expert.
These photos - and others to follow - were taken by Amanda Richards following a makeover at her True Colors studio in PA.
As many of you know, Amanda is a uniquely gifted artist as well as somebody who pours her heart and soul into her work. For those who haven't had the opportunity to visit her, I highly recommend it. This was my second photoshoot with Amanda - the first was over five years ago - and it was incredibly enlightening. Here are some of the things that I took away from the shoot:
1. Wear a cincher and gaff. I generally don't wear either when I'm out and about, as I value comfort above all, and I typically make do with looser tops and a snug pair of panties for everyday. But for a photo shoot, I think both are advisable, unless you're having boudoir shots, in which case, of course, you're on your own! :-) Based upon my choice of outfits for the shoot, I regretted not wearing either. Lesson learned.
2. Be yourself. Amanda is incredibly flexible and deferential to her clients' tastes, however she has an artist's eye and very definite ideas about makeup. Depending on what look you want, it's important that you consider whether that look will reflect who YOU are as opposed to somebody completely unrecognizable. Some folks might prefer the latter, but I prefer to look like myself, so it's important to take that into consideration when it comes to things like overdrawn lips, brows, eye liner, etc. My philosophy is that we should all play to our natural gifts and diminish aspects of our presentation which don't come across as genuine. Since I tend to be a smiler, some of the photos where I didn't smile seemed to be a bit forced. Lesson learned.
3. Understand what taping does and know its pros and cons. I never tape when I do my own makeup, but Amanda taped me and it can make a real difference. Just be sure to remove the tape within a reasonable period of time, otherwise you'll be scraping glue off your neck and forehead for hours. I had a taping experience many years ago where I wasn't aware that it needed to come off at a certain point, and when I removed it, part of my face came with it. :-( Lesson learned back then!
An Amanda Richards makeover and shoot is a singular experience, and I would encourage anybody who seeks to enhance their own natural, unique beauty to take advantage of it. She's a treasure in the community.
If you've gotten this far, thanks for sticking with my long description of the occasion, and thank you all so much for your beautiful comments!

“Haaarruuumph” said Yuffie sulking and kicking a cup around the hill.
“What’s up?” asked Spectre.
“The illustrator just threw me out of the class he was teaching,” replied Yuffie.
“Oh dear, Yuffie,” sighed Spectre, “what was the class about?”
“The illustrator was teaching us how to write stories and bad jokes in 512 characters or less to fit in as flash fiction,” stated Yuffie. ”He went mad when I said a really rude word startin’ with C.”
“Well that wasn’t clever was it?” said Spectre.
“No,” replied Yuffie, “it was cu
