Make sure you self check for any abnormality, though it may not be cancerous.
Radio talk today reminded that dogs often know abnormalities (growing cancer) on their significant other. So listen to your animal if she/he starts to act abnormal consistently about a part of your body.

119 Pictures in 2019 - #90. "Silky"
This piece of silky fabric is one of the oldest in my inventory - and it helped to define my three cardinal rules for fabric purchases, as it breaks all three:
1. Avoid fabric that is shiny - especially for backdrops
2. Avoid fabric that creases (makes for more work post-processing)
3. Avoid fabric with hard to clone patterns (see above)
Of course, there are exceptions to every rule, and used as a drape, this fabric is lovely.

Coming out make-over done by my future daughter-in law march 24 2020
What can i say Truly so blessed <3 i went to spend time almost 2 weeks with my family in Liverpool oldest son his girlfriend and my 7 month old granddaughter, and also was going to have a professional make-over and photo shoot, whilst up that way, sadly corona virus stopped that side of things.
But my future daughter-in-law who is a professional make up artist in Liverpool stepped in and offered to do my make up and take some pictures, i felt so honoured she would do this for me <3 and can honestly say she was nervous as she so wanted to get it right for me and hoped i liked it, i think she done amazing and worked a miracle to make me look and feel so pretty and feminine :)
Outfit was my new wig that my son and his girlfriend got me for the make over and my 51st birthday, lashings of beautiful make up pink pearl necklace, pearl bracelets and earrings, underwear consisted of pure whits knicker and bra set filled with my girls :) beautiful floral vintage dress with beige patent rope wedge slingback heels to make up the whole me for coming out on facebook to everyone :)
i was blown away by all the comments and support i got on facebook not one negative remark etc lots of love respect and support from people i never expected so very humbling and also on flickr from my lovely friends who just showed me more love and acceptance, i knew it was the right thing and time for me to come out and now i can be who and how i want when i wish which is so nice <3
So i hope as i show the pictures from this set you will like some and send you all my love and best wishes, be who you want and cane be and most of all stay safe my friends <3

I have decided to make a portfolio of 10 different individual portraits in an attempt to see how well I can do with the help of my friends putting all my knowledge to the test..
This is number one.
A collaboration with Vanessa on Make up, Clarke rocking as the model and Hales was assisting.
None of us are professionals. We all have day jobs and are a group of friends having fun believing we can pull off something truly fantastic.
Thank you to them all.
I know it looks awesome. Yeehaa!

This was taken on Grand, between Greene and Mercer, in the SoHo district of Manhattan.
***************
This set of photos is based on a very simple concept: walk every block of Manhattan with a camera, and see what happens. To avoid missing anything, walk both sides of the street.
That's all there is to it …
Of course, if you wanted to be more ambitious, you could also walk the streets of Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, and the Bronx. But that's more than I'm willing to commit to at this point, and I'll leave the remaining boroughs of New York City to other, more adventurous photographers.
Oh, actually, there's one more small detail: leave the photos alone for a month -- unedited, untouched, and unviewed. By the time I actually focus on the first of these "every-block" photos, I will have taken more than 8,000 images on the nearby streets of the Upper West Side -- plus another several thousand in Rome, Coney Island, and the various spots in NYC where I traditionally take photos. So I don't expect to be emotionally attached to any of the "every-block" photos, and hope that I'll be able to make an objective selection of the ones worth looking at.
As for the criteria that I've used to select the small subset of every-block photos that get uploaded to Flickr: there are three. First, I'll upload any photo that I think is "great," and where I hope the reaction of my Flickr-friends will be, "I have no idea when or where that photo was taken, but it's really a terrific picture!"
A second criterion has to do with place, and the third involves time. I'm hoping that I'll take some photos that clearly say, "This is New York!" to anyone who looks at it. Obviously, certain landscape icons like the Empire State Building or the Statue of Liberty would satisfy that criterion; but I'm hoping that I'll find other, more unexpected examples. I hope that I'll be able to take some shots that will make a "local" viewer say, "Well, even if that's not recognizable to someone from another part of the country, or another part of the world, I know that that's New York!" And there might be some photos where a "non-local" viewer might say, "I had no idea that there was anyplace in New York City that was so interesting/beautiful/ugly/spectacular."
As for the sense of time: I remember wandering around my neighborhood in 2005, photographing various shops, stores, restaurants, and business establishments -- and then casually looking at the photos about five years later, and being stunned by how much had changed. Little by little, store by store, day by day, things change … and when you've been around as long as I have, it's even more amazing to go back and look at the photos you took thirty or forty years ago, and ask yourself, "Was it really like that back then? Seriously, did people really wear bell-bottom jeans?"
So, with the expectation that I'll be looking at these every-block photos five or ten years from now (and maybe you will be, too), I'm going to be doing my best to capture scenes that convey the sense that they were taken in the year 2013 … or at least sometime in the decade of the 2010's (I have no idea what we're calling this decade yet). Or maybe they'll just say to us, "This is what it was like a dozen years after 9-11".
Movie posters are a trivial example of such a time-specific image; I've already taken a bunch, and I don't know if I'll ultimately decide that they're worth uploading. Women's fashion/styles are another obvious example of a time-specific phenomenon; and even though I'm definitely not a fashion expert, I suspected that I'll be able to look at some images ten years from now and mutter to myself, "Did we really wear shirts like that? Did women really wear those weird skirts that are short in the front, and long in the back? Did everyone in New York have a tattoo?"
Another example: I'm fascinated by the interactions that people have with their cellphones out on the street. It seems that everyone has one, which certainly wasn't true a decade ago; and it seems that everyone walks down the street with their eyes and their entire conscious attention riveted on this little box-like gadget, utterly oblivious about anything else that might be going on (among other things, that makes it very easy for me to photograph them without their even noticing, particularly if they've also got earphones so they can listen to music or carry on a phone conversation). But I can't help wondering whether this kind of social behavior will seem bizarre a decade from now … especially if our cellphones have become so miniaturized that they're incorporated into the glasses we wear, or implanted directly into our eyeballs.
If you have any suggestions about places that I should definitely visit to get some good photos, or if you'd like me to photograph you in your little corner of New York City, please let me know. You can send me a Flickr-mail message, or you can email me directly at ed-at-yourdon-dot-com
Stay tuned as the photo-walk continues, block by block ...
Slight under exposure with a polariser. Exposure then altered in PS to correct (more or less value) on a duplicate layer. Layers then transposed with darker (original) on top. Then gentle feathering and deletion of bottom third of image. Image flattened, applied sharpening, darkened off the sky at the top of the frame a little. Job done.

This was Lina a few moments ago. She's curled round now, but she does rest in some very strange positions, which makes me think she is part-cat!

1145 and 3805 were waiting before starting an afternoon school run.
1616 had just finished a journey on route 5 from East Cowes via Osborne House and Medina.
1618 was preparing to leave on route 7 to Alum Bay via Newbridge and Yarmouth.
Although it has been photographed countless times I couldn't resist taking a few shots of the walkway that leads from the entrance to the Exhibition Centre railway station down to what is now called, rather pretentiously IMO, the Scottish Events Campus. Given that this is the principal route to Glasgow's main conference centre I think its high time it had a face lift!

I am an amateur, excuse my DEFORMED WRIST. I do not know how to do the photoshops.
(Good friends let you use their body for poses, stripping layers when told, and make you a cast to cover the wrist. D. <3)
Photography is just a journey like so many other things in life; we make mistakes, some of us more than others, but hopefully we learn from them and do things better next time.
It is always interesting to see how styles and techniques develop and evolve over the years. This image is from my earliest days of using a DSLR, a time when I thought pixels were those little creatures at the bottom of the garden and exposure compensation was just getting dressed in the morning before going out on a cold day. I’ve still no idea what those words mean but I have read them in a book, a book which is now doing a sterling job of keeping the coffee table level.
So this image, although being 8 years old, is still one of my all-time favourites and after a little encouragement I’ve given it a little tweak following my normal workflow these days; a few nips and tucks, adjusted highlights and shadows, a little bit of split toning, a spray tan and finally a slight crop.
It was originally posted with a pink border! What was I thinking? It brought to mind the time as a teenager when I had one of those Starsky jackets which I wore with bright red jeans and cowboy boots. OMG! You’re probably better not thinking about that for too long!
Sadly for you I have not got any photos, you really would fall off your chair!
So that raises the question; what has been your worst fashion disaster?
The music for today is just mainstream pop. It’s got very little to do with this image apart from the fact that I like the tune and the colours reminded me of this photo; see I’m from simple stock. The video is quite wacky too, like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang on acid and purely by coincidence the track is by LSD!
Now before you get any ideas, I’m firmly in the Grange Hill corner, ‘Just Say No’.

Inspiration: Lyrics to Kelly Clarkson's song: Stronger (What Doesn't Kill you)
You know the bed feels warmer
Sleeping here alone
You know I dream in color
And do the things I want
You think you got the best of me
Think you've had the last laugh
Bet you think that everything good is gone
Think you left me broken down
Think that I'd come running back
Baby you don't know me, cause you're dead wrong
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
What doesn't kill you makes a fighter
Footsteps even lighter
Doesn't mean I'm over cause you're gone
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, stronger
Just me, myself and I
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
You heard that I was starting over with someone new
They told you I was moving on, over you
You didn't think that I'd come back
I'd come back swinging
You try to break me, but you see
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
What doesn't kill you makes a fighter
Footsteps even lighter
Doesn't mean I'm over cause you're gone
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, stronger
Just me, myself and I
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
Thanks to you I got a new thing started
Thanks to you I'm not the broken hearted
Thanks to you I'm finally thinking about me
You know in the end the day you left was just my beginning
In the end
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
What doesn't kill you makes a fighter
Footsteps even lighter
Doesn't mean I'm over cause you're gone
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, stronger
Just me, myself and I
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, stronger
Just me, myself and I
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
(When I'm alone)

always looking for something a little different to what I normally post so a different pose makes a change all be it only a slight change.
I had a lovely night out wearing this dress once again, Its such a fab frock to dance around in. The new hair needs to settle in a bit give a few weeks of abuse and it will look as natural as can be.
Make it pretty. You eat with your eyes first. Three years ago, I lost 62 pounds, all the weight I had to lose. I've kept it off for two years now. I'm never going back. Why would I when I can eat like this and maintain my goal weight.
