The temperature has been in the low teens for the past three days. Schools have been closed since Monday, since the windshield have been in the negative. Pudgey has refused to so out for anything longer than a mad 10 second dash to water the snow.... And then rush back in, jump into bed and get under the blankets. We are hoping it warms up soon.... The little booger hasn't taken his normal number of trips outside in three days.
At Casey Elementary School on Camp Casey Jan. 14, students and parents take part in the school's second annual Math Madness workshop, which aimed to build math proficiency by using games and other activities to make the subject enjoyable for youngsters. In one of those activities, for example, competing groups had to use 20 strands of uncooked spaghetti and about a yard of masking tape to create the tallest possible structure that would support a marshmallow for at least 30 seconds without collapsing. - U.S. Army photo by Pfc.

As you may know, I love doing my own photo equipment like my trust worthy homemade Remote control.
This shot was taken while building another photographic rig that I'm hoping on using for several shots I have in my head for quite a while. When I started cutting the screw with my dremel power tool, I saw all the sparks flying out so I had to try and photograph it. 3 hours later this was the result.
You can see to the right the led light I used to illuminate the thread. This is the light I use daily when commuting in my bicycle. I used two perfume boxes to direct the light so it wouldn't illuminate the vise holding the thread. Directly in front of it you can see the vise with the thread in it's place. On the foreground is the dremel power tool I used for the job. On the background there is a black cloth for the background. Finally you can see the final result in the computer screen.
PS: Soon I will show you the finished rig and hopefully some nice shots.
Machines can be as simple as a wheel or as complex as the clockworks on a watch, and do-it-yourself solutions can often be intimidating. During our day of "Making Things Move," Lab visitors demystified the basics by adding movement to everyday objects. Learn more about these events: ow.ly/bJjWV

Helicopter preparing to apply herbicide prior to planting pines at Joe Budd WMA. A great deal of effort is expended on Joe Budd WMA to restore ecosystems back to their natural state. Prior to planting longleaf pine, it is usually necessary to control competing vegetation until this slow-growing pine can become established.

I'm learning to not think so much before taking pictures of myself. wish I had a photo of my Mom doing this.
Week 51 of 52 in 2013. The theme is MEMORIES. And one of the things I like best about being a photographer is making memories. Whether it's a portrait, a sunrise, or visiting a new waterfall, each shot becomes a memory. Thanks to my friend Tony for allowing me to use his camera to take this self portrait of me in action.

Die Arbeit mit dem #CamRanger und den Jinbei #HD610 macht richtig Spaß.
Ich mach noch ein paar Bilder und zeige euch ein paar Ergebnisse später...
The downtown area of Nashville features a diverse assortment of entertainment, dining, cultural and architectural attractions. The Broadway and 2nd Avenue areas feature entertainment venues, night clubs and an assortment of restaurants.
Nashville is the capital of the U.S. state of Tennessee and the county seat of Davidson County. It is located on the Cumberland River in the north-central part of the state. The city is a center for the music, healthcare, publishing, banking and transportation industries, and is home to a large number of colleges and universities. Reflecting the city's position in state government, Nashville is home to the Tennessee Supreme Court's courthouse for Middle Tennessee. It is known as a center of the music industry, earning it the nickname "Music City".
Nashville has a consolidated city–county government which includes six smaller municipalities in a two-tier system. As of the 2010 census the population of Nashville, not including the semi-independent municipalities, stood at 601,222. The population of Davidson County as a whole, including all municipalities, was 626,681. Nashville is the second largest city in Tennessee, after Memphis, and the fifth largest city in the Southeastern United States. The 2010 population of the entire 13-county Nashville metropolitan area was 1,589,934, making it the largest Metropolitan Statistical Area in the state. The 2010 population of the Nashville-Davidson–Murfreesboro–Columbia combined statistical area, a larger trade area, was 1,670,890.
The town of Nashville was founded by James Robertson, John Donelson, and a party of Overmountain Men in 1779, near the original Cumberland settlement of Fort Nashborough. It was named for Francis Nash, the American Revolutionary War hero. Nashville quickly grew because of its strategic location, accessibility as a river port, and its later status as a major railroad center. In 1806, Nashville was incorporated as a city and became the county seat of Davidson County, Tennessee. In 1843, the city was named the permanent capital of the state of Tennessee.
By 1860, when the first rumblings of secession began to be heard across the South, antebellum Nashville was a very prosperous city. The city's significance as a shipping port made it a desirable prize as a means of controlling important river and railroad transportation routes. In February 1862, Nashville became the first state capital to fall to Union troops. The Battle of Nashville (December 15–16, 1864) was a significant Union victory and perhaps the most decisive tactical victory gained by either side in the war.
Within a few years after the Civil War the city had reclaimed its important shipping and trading position and also developed a solid manufacturing base. The post–Civil War years of the late 19th century brought a newfound prosperity to Nashville. These healthy economic times left the city with a legacy of grand classical-style buildings, which can still be seen around the downtown area.
Today, the city along the Cumberland River is a crossroads of American culture, and one of the fastest-growing areas of the Upland South.

In a world full of stress and fear, we could all use a little baby goat therapy. Today I had the good fortune to visit George's Mill Farm in Lovettsville, VA where adorable baby goats helped to heal stress and give people a reason to smile. I hope these photos bring a little baby goat therapy to all of you. Peace
Princess is making friends with novices in a monastery. They're sharing their passion to chocolates and m&ms.
I treated myself to a bread machine shortly after Christmas last year. Boy, have prices dropped since I first bought one more than 15 years ago! I opted for a cheap one with reasonably good ratings, so I could experiment. This model not only makes bread, but the jam to spread on it! Today I used it for the first time to make a loaf of Challah bread. I used this recipe to make the bread using the dough setting on the machine, then shaped it, let it rise, and baked it. It was sensational! I don't think I'll ever buy challah again! Tomorrow I'm going to surprise the Mr. with French Toast for breakfast using my homemade challah.
Spent the first half of the day at the NES Championship qualifier tourney, spent the second half of the day at the Dallas Fan Expo, or Comic Con, or whatever you want to call it. I forgot my 3DS, so I sulked around taking pictures of cosplayers, and even stopped in for the Billie Piper (of Doctor Who fame) Q&A session in the arena.

I love surf art. I love seeing how different people represent the ocean and waves. when I was in Hawaii I discovered Heather Brown's art which depicts the North Shore.
Luke Taafe has super inspiring work. More recently I've come across Erik Abel's more abstract designs.
I'm still experimenting with my own style.
Turning an eight horse ploughing team in a tight circle is not easy and requires great coordination between the horses and a steadying hand from the driver. The horses have to sidestep while also moving forward in order to complete the turn successfully. 2017 New Zealand National Ploughing Championship. www.cfgphoto.com/photos-ploughing-championship-2017-3527.htm
