Or known to perhaps a few as bigmellowtaxi on livejournal. (Just to show that I am indeed, the owner, of an icon that has been made without my permission.)
Exploring the theme insomnia. Might consider a small series. Depends on a few things, including whether you like this photo. It's been a while since I've done anything really new. In my opinion that is.
This photo (and I suppose, any I might do later) is supposed to be slightly blurry...! I'm also quite fond of how the colours came out.
The weather was perfect when I took this photo: it was pouring with rain and the wind made me feel very unstable in my posing. It worked for this photo.
PS - My hair has been growing, couple of centimeters make a lot of difference. Yay!

Part 3 of a 7 series shot. This raptor is best seen (large )
The distinctive colors mark out a Brahminy Kite from the other raptors that abound in Kerala. This is primarily a scavenger of the water areas and takes its prey diving down and lifting the food in its claws.
This is the same juvenile kite readying itself for a steep dive to the water surface to pick up food.
This shot and others in this series (see ezee123.livejournal.com/ ) taken with a 300 mm Nikkor lens hand held with 400 ISO.

Храмовый комплекс Успения Пресвятой Богородицы (zavidovohram.ru/) стоит в центре древнего села Завидово, несколько восточнее автотрассы Москва (112 км) — Санкт-Петербург (522км).
В настоящее время Храмовый комплекс включает:
- два храма: Успенский трехпрестольный (XVII век) и Троицкий однопрестольный;
- пятиярусная колокольня (построенная вновь в 2003 году на месте разрушенной в 1950-х годах). На третьем ярусе колокольня находится самая большая звонница Тверской епархии, общая масса колоколов 12,5 тонны, самый большой колокол «Благовест» 5,1 тонны;
- музей (бывшая часовня и иконохранилище). Музей посвящен истории села Завидово и храмовому комплексу;
- сторожка, где расположен музей «Народные промыслы России» и воскресная школа. Прежде здесь же находилась ограда с башнями, которые впоследствии были разрушены.
The temple complex of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary (zavidovohram.ru/) stands in the center of the ancient village of Zavidovo, somewhat east of the Moscow highway (112 km) - St. Petersburg (522 km).
Currently, the Church complex includes two temples: the Assumption three-altar (17th century) and Trinity single altar, as well as the five-tier bell tower (built again in 2003 on the site destroyed in the 1950s). The bell tower on the third tier is the largest belfry of the Tver Diocese, the total mass of the bells is 12.5 tons, the largest bell is the Blagovest bell 5.1 tons. The museum (the former chapel and the icon-depository) is dedicated to the history of Zavidovo village and the temple complex, opened on June 12, 2006. Nearby is the gatehouse, where the museum "Folk crafts of Russia" and the Sunday school are now located. First there was a fence with towers, which were subsequently destroyed.

The last couple of days I've been coming across more and more Livejournal Communities that are using our photography for their Icon Communities to use them as stock icons. Lots of my own pictures were stolen and used on there and I've seen many of my contact's pictures on there as well. I just want to post this and warn everyone, because I think that's just not right. No one asked me if they can use my photos for that and they don't even give credit to the photographers. They just want credit given to THEM for making the icon. It makes me so mad! Hence why I'm protecting my stream from now on. Everything is set to Friends & Family only. this is a Protect Flickr community on Livejournal if you are interested {thank you, Katrina ♥}
Icon communities on Livejournal (I think you must be a member of some of them in order to see the entries.)
^I'll keep adding more to this list. It's so upsetting. :( I wish there was something we could do!
