A Western Pond Turtle, the native species, is recorded and measured in the Arboretum on June 8, 2022.
The project involves assisting Dr. Brian Todd and Ph.D. Student Sidney Woodruff in a research study evaluating how native species respond to the removal of non-native species and waterway restoration. The research objectives are to investigate the abundance and population demography of the native Western pond turtle (Actineymys marmorata) and population response in growth and demography from the removal of non-native red-eared sliders. Natural populations of the Western pond turtle are found in the UC Davis Arboretum where red-eared sliders occupy the same ecological niche in high densities. Natural populations of Western pond turtles are found in the nearby South Fork of Putah Creek where the presence of non-native turtles is extremely low or nonexistent. This work can highlight the importance of waterway restoration in building a more resilient ecosystem while supporting the recovery and conservation of native species.
Providing this opportunity will allow undergraduate students to be involved in wildlife conservation research under the supervision of a graduate student mentor and PI while also supporting the objectives of this study and the restoration of the UC Davis Arboretum.
A very dry summer. The type of soil is sand, sandy loam and gravel, so even in a normal year my lawn dries and dies. This year parts of the lawn are nonexistent. This is, of course, not a problem to me because I keep expanding my xeric and prairie garden to take over the area where grass existed.
The following map illustrates some of the conditions: www1.ncdc.noaa.gov/pub/data/cmb/sotc/drought/2012/06/hprc....
Atlanta Braves baseball from 20 September 2019 (the night they clinched the division crown). The new park (opened in 2018) gets panned a little because it's usually pretty hot in Georgia and a heck of a lot of seats are in direct sun.
It's a relatively generic stadium (in the new mold of generic stadiums), but it's nice. The area outside the stadium (bars/restaurants) is actually a bit more interesting/unique than the stadium itself.
The biggest drawback is that the Atlanta Braves no longer play in Atlanta. (That and parking is almost nonexistent up there in Marietta near the stadium. We were scratching our heads looking for the actual parking lots.)
As for the game...it was a great game. First time in my life I actually got to see a division-clinching game. (They'd clinched a playoff spot a few days before.)
While immersed in an ocean of sorrows in St. Petersburg today I encountered the geese family, had a close encounter with a dolphin, and happened upon a cute little duckling with its mother.
While immersed in an ocean of sorrows today I happened to pass businesses in distress, empty homes, eroding sea walls, beaches disappearing under the rising seas, and the human species suffering its own terminal illness.
While immersed in an ocean of sorrows today I went up to Heaven and consoled God in His sorrows, travelled down to Hell to console Satan in his misery, and listening to the voice of a million gods singing their praise to Mother Nature, the owner of the Earth and presiding spirit governing humankind's fate.
While immersed in an ocean of sorrows today my soul expanded to fill the Universe and then it ceases to exist and in nonexistence it found immense relief and happiness.
When immersed in an ocean of sorrows today I found myself and in finding myself I found God. God above, God below, God existent, God nonexistent, God everywhere, and God nowhere.
God is the only true atheist in the Universe but how can God disbelieve in His own self?
My Flickr is overdue for some rearrangement. I've worked out a plan for how I'm going to structure things, but depending on how long it takes to implement, my sets and collections may be very messy and/or nonexistent for a bit!
UPDATE: Well, that was much easier than I expected! I guess it helps to plan things out in Excel before deleting sets willy-nilly...

Wow, the sky was lit tonight over the city! Breathtakingly beautiful... Rain may be nonexistent here but at least nature still provides these fiery sunset displays for us to enjoy! Pics taken from by the 900 McCarthy Blvd building around Milpitas, CA. This was just a minute or so away from my work. (Thursday around late sunset, December 3, 2020)
*“I watched the sunset last night. And given the utter brilliance of it, I likely sat in the company of thousands who found themselves awash in its blaze of colors as well. But sadly, it is just as likely that I was surrounded by thousands of others who never saw the colors because they were awash in lesser things. And I realized that far too often I am in the company of those people. Therefore, I’ll be sitting outside tonight.” ― Craig D. Lounsbrough.
There is truly a difference between December light and light from the Sun produced this time of year(Spring/Summer). December light produces a harsh angle, however it is that harsh angle passing through the quartz crystals on the surfaces of stones from this site that illuminate the images to a higher plateau, including the intensity of the light echo after the Winter Equinox peak. Colder temperatures and moisture levels (precipitation) are also an important factor illuminating specific pigment combinations and light echoes within and surrounding the stones on this ancient North American mound site.
I decided to focus on one of stones located on the highest precipice of the mound. It is virtually immovable because of its weight, so I need to be happy with what I have available to study. It was a cold rainy day in early December 2020, and I want to show you the comparison of the images that are visible on a cold rainy December day, in contrast to a warm day in early April three years later; the images and perception of the narrative truly changes from season to season during the course of an annual cycle.
I have mentioned many times regarding the organic component of the stones on this site. Colder and wet conditions clearly activate the organic components on these stones that appear to be nonexistent on a warm and high-sun Spring/Summer day.
I simply cannot explain this anomaly regarding the organic components, however I have learned that the stones and this mound only reveal its images based on its own singular timing, and never the timing of someone other than the mound itself.
The cement applications on the surface of this stone appear to remain consistent from year to year, even though they could potentially be the most fragile elements on the surface of this stone. What I am attempting to point out in this photo is the illusive organic component of images in the lower quadrant of this stone. The entire spectrum of images below the wavy serpentine galaxy line are normally hidden in plain sight with high-sun and warm temperatures; and it is the organic component-based images in the lower half of this stone that are the most curious.
The organic images on the lower left side of this stone appear to be completely related to specific celestial entity combinations not yet identified; perhaps the ring of at least seven celestial bodies are related to the Pleiades Constellation; however it is difficult to say for certain since we can only participate in an educated "Best Guess" scenario.
The grouping of celestial figures in the lower right is the most interesting, and perhaps the easiest to understand. These particular images appear to come from the People of Light and Color and most likely their celestial location of origin, as shown on many other stones from this site; this image field appears to explain how these three sub-cultures exist on a separate physical dimensional plane from our galaxy; thus explaining the serpentine symbol associated with many other similar image fields regarding this celestial sub-culture (The People of Light and Color), in addition of their ability to appear and disappear from the physical face of the stone depending on the weather and air temperature.
The largest symbol of this grouping is perhaps related to similar serpentine entities or portal symbols indicating an opening or entryway onto a separate dimension from where our Earth and Solar System is located; the mid-point region of the lower hypotenuse of the triangular pyramidal core structure of our galaxy.
The three elongated figures in the lower right appear to explain different individual groups within this celestial sub-culture identified as the People of Light and Color, and the center figure with a secondary outstretched arm with a smaller attached figural symbol with a crescent arch attached to its headdress perhaps defines a secondary sub-culture within a sub-culture?? ; This Triad grouping of figures perhaps explains three different sub-cultures associated with the People of Light and Color who collectively formed a union from their separate celestial regions of origin to participate in building the ancient Energy Grid mounds across our globe, and perhaps other celestial bodies; similar in theory to an international building company that participates in building similar structures in different continents across our globe. Each of these three sub-cultures are identified within this elongated grouping of symbols and each figural symbolic group bears separate and complex signature headdresses, most likely identifying the specific sub-cultures points of origin.
The most recognizable symbol in this entire image field is the largest primary figure in the center with the primary outstretched directional arm at the end of the serpentine transit line bearing the Moorish styled headdress.
I am now wondering if this outstretched arm figure of different variations relate to specific celestial transit passages; similar in theory to a " fork in the road" with two options of transit???
This figure with bearing the Moorish styled Dome in contrast to a Roman arched classical Dome is an important element in the pattern of figural images on this ancient mound site; this Moorish dome appears to be identified as an inclusive symbolic figural dome, most likely including all sub-cultures within a specific celestial transit pathway or similar point of origin, et al. (all, others).
Just something to think about when studying the different variations of this figure with the directional outstretched arm that we see so often in these celestial figures. I am also wondering if the row or line of four white celestial markings just following this primary figure is the actual number of four celestial sub-cultures who traveled together along this specific celestial transit serpentine passage route shown on this mound stone???

In Ocean City NJ they needed to take sand from further out in the ocean to rebuild the beaches, because they are nonexistent.
Exterior shots from the Timberline Lodge were used in Stanley Kubrick's The Shining. According to IMDb, "The management of the Timberline requested that Stanley Kubrick not use 217 for a room number (as specified in the book), fearing that nobody would want to stay in that room ever again. Kubrick changed the script to use the nonexistent room number 237."
The visibility from the 18th floor at work can be nonexistent at times when the weathers right. It feels like you're working in the clouds.
My reading of Spanish is below average and my Basque is nonexistent, but I think this archaic and wonderful street parade (with many clanging cow bells) has something to do with the ongoing call for independence.

Ken Childs, on telling the difference, "To keep it simple I'm going to refer to the area between the 2 major lines as a bow tie. On implicata the center of the bow tie is much thinner than it is on laudabilis. Also the center of the bow tie is generally dark on implicata and lighter green on laudabilis. As with all moths, there are exceptions so you may occasionally find a laudabilis with dark scaling in the middle. Seeing all three together in the BG graphic helps but ignore the part about the orange and brown patches and the brown reniform because those marks are extremely variable or sometimes nonexistent. Something else I've noticed is that implicata has an overall cleaner look with less going on in the antimedial and subterminal areas." Look on BG for Ken's chart on the differences, too: bugguide.net/images/raw/XRJ/ZPR/XRJZPRYZMRTZIRJZIR3ZQRULX...

When you go through the streets
No one recognizes you.
No one sees your crystal crown, no one looks
At the carpet of red gold
That you tread as you pass,
The nonexistent carpet.
And when you appear
All the rivers sound
In my body, bells
Shake the sky,
And a hymn fills the world.

Lensbaby boredom @ work in the bathroom mirror. I was about to leave for the day, and went to the restroom. Figured I'd take a pic or four. Using a Lensbaby without the viewfinder is serious trial and error, since the lens tilts for selective focus, and the depth of field is almost nonexistent.

Beautiful old car, shipped by the rio amazon to the old rubber boomtown, Iquitos. This is the largest city on earth not accessible by road. No wonder it's in good nick.
The interior of St. Nicholas Parish Church, in one of the old, steel-mill suburbs of Pittsburgh. Most of the Ukrainian and eastern European-descended population has moved out, leaving some sixteen parishes serving a population that can support perhaps five.
There's a "latinization" here: Pews. Sitting is usually nonexistent in Eastern Christianity, so they are mostly for (a) form, and (b) pre-Liturgy networking...

*"When the sun starts setting, it’s hard not to think about how amazing your bed would feel like after such a long day. You may have a few lingering thoughts about work, school, or about your business. That’s normal. You’ll probably start wondering if there’s anything you forgot to do today. You may also recount all the things that happened. Some memories will make you smile, while others will make you cringe in regret. The important thing now is that in a few moments, you will finally be able to lie against the familiar smell of your own pillows and sheets. Hopefully, you’ll dream good dreams after that...
Rip
Maintain the keystone
A rough cloth wiped on engraved rock
Build this house on midnight rides
and suicide
Sylvia plath's roommate
tried to check-out
tried to buy her way to a sensible world
with no-nonsense lead weights
52 white and round
-the menu for lunch
For dinner, they serve charcoal shakes
service in bed, and made her check-in.
Wipe the monolith that make skyscrapers dizzy
Drag the cloth, and pray for rain.
I tell time by the shadows
turning on the sundial of her face
Her expression scatters darkness, stops time
I put a quarter in my palm and say
tap it three times (hold out fist palm down)
One, two, three (open fist, and show that it's empty)
She says, "I've got a better trick."
The flowers wilt in the noontime sun
shaded by granite shadows
I talk to you, but there's no answer
I carry you in my arms
I become your nonexistent legs
and you, you are the wind that makes even the mountains cower.
I carry you and stagger
1 step, each day for the rest of my life
Can you count the cracks in the sidewalk?
How many seconds have passed since you were born?
Do you remember the first time you fell down,
the last time you woke up screaming?
(It's just a dream, go back to sleep)
I carry you and stagger
each step and then?
I walk and count each wave that crashes on the shore
I count each heartbeat since the day I was born:
(hold fist out, palm down, and count) 1, 2...

Haha, this is such a fake photo. The flowers are real, but I photoshopped the blue sky (because those are nonexistent in shanghai) and the lens flare. Funny how you can force a blue sky into a picture, yeah?
Rushing Through the Streets
This image was taken with the ProShoot app. When I initially took this picture I had it at a lower ISO and I thought it was too high, but then I decided to increase it because I liked how it made the sidewalk seem non existent. It added to the contrast between the people walking on the streets and the ground because they wore darkly colored clothing. I also felt that this conveyed a message and could be how other perceive New Yorkers. We're always rushing and in doing os we blur out everything around us and even the ground seems nonexistent when we're pounding the pavement and focused on a destination.

My computer is nonexistent. So I cannot upload pictures off the camera I actually use to take effortful photos. So, crappily composed iPhone photos it is! Burnt Lake hike, July 4, 2014.

Though I was threatened by someone for taking pictures out here, with them saying something like “I WILL F—-ING SHOOT YOU!” while driving by in their small yellow ford SUV, I think these pictures of Linn Street in Cincinnati’s West End turned out fantastic, and show how lovely the neighborhood is despite some of the activity that tends to go on in this part of the city, and the urban renewal that led to the street being as wide and anti-Social as it is today. These buildings were largely constructed in the 19th Century, with some dating to the early 20th Century, a time when Linn Street was much narrower and ended at Bank Street, with the connection to Mohawk Place and McMicken Street to the north being nonexistent for much of the area’s history. However, in the early 1960s, the road was deemed to be not wide enough for the industrial and commercial uses the city’s leaders envisioned for the area, and it was widened to four through-lanes, much like Liberty Street in Over-the-Rhine and Pendleton, wiping out all the buildings along its path, including several churches. The gap left in the urban fabric has had many attempts to fill it, with a notable failure being the playground that once stood on this portion of Linn, which was demolished around 2012 after it was taken over by drug dealers and gang members, whom still seem to be in business in some areas of the neighborhood, especially on this high-speed anonymous corridor and towards Liberty Street and the housing projects. Today, the negative impact of this roadway continues to blight the surrounding urban fabric, and I believe that the proposed changes to Liberty Street should be studied for Linn Street as well, as this corridor would benefit from slower traffic and a more humanistic, less anti-social design.
Interesting the mosquitoes down at camp were essentially nonexistent (typical on the large sand/gravel bars) but on the top of this hill they were miserable!

This terrible upload of the day brought to you by my nonexistent skills in Photoshop. I had high hopes of combining all of my busted office signs into one funny collage of sorts, but since I am such a noob, this is all I got.
So far, that's:
- a class to learn the basics and some not-so-basics of taking pictures that don't absolutely bore me
- a lesson in using Photoshop
I'm on it.
The "Midwest" set of photos are all scans of 11x14 glossy fiber prints from my final project for photography this semester. All the photos actively work against the stereotype of the Midwest being flat, boring, and virtually nonexistent to the people who live on the coasts. These homes are grandiose, unique, and call out for attention; they are not something that one would "expect" from the Midwest. These prints offer anonymity in showing only the exteriors of the houses; however, they are intimate in the sense that they beg the viewer to come inside, which is something they will never be able to do. The interior must remain a mystery.
