Continuing my snowy Rattlesnake lake serie. reaching the end of it though. i still have several valuable captures that i got to process in the best way possible. i sometimes keep shots aside for weeks. i suppose it's a good thing.
i often have the feeling that photography is like illustration. if you capture (or paint) something, it's better to serve it hot instead of waiting. otherwise the hesitation you initially had, will grow stronger and stronger. there are many exception though. and i'm slowly learning to go against that feeling.
basically it still is just a feeling. i still process old shots. for my illustrations it's more of a problem. i have tons of sketches left in folders, that i will probably never use. i'll certainly have to push on the same mental process here.

Aquilegia chrysantha 'Yellow Queen' .View LARGE and On Black
This columbine cultivar is perennial that features large, upward facing, fragrant, bright yellow flowers with long, outward curving spurs. Flowers grow on a long stem above the leaves and have five pointed yellow sepals and five yellow petals with long spurs projecting backwards between the sepals. At the center of the flower are many yellow stamens.
Aquilegia comes from the Latin word for eagle in reference to the flower's five spurs which purportedly resemble an eagle's talon.

Winter Wonderland written in 1934 by Felix Bernard (composer)
and Richard B. Smith (lyricist).
There are lots of interpretations. Here comes Pat Boone:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=JE8D52xD4uw
Sleigh bells ring, are you listening,
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight,
We're happy tonight.
Walking in a winter wonderland.
Gone away is the bluebird,
Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song,
As we go along,
Walking in a winter wonderland.
In the meadow we can build a snowman,
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say: Are you married?
We'll say: No man,
But you can do the job
When you're in town.
Later on, we'll conspire,
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid,
The plans that we've made,
Walking in a winter wonderland.
In the meadow we can build a snowman,
And pretend that he's a circus clown
We'll have lots of fun with mister snowman,
Until the other kids knock him down.
When it snows, ain't it thrilling,
Though your nose gets a chilling
We'll frolic and play, the Eskimo way,
Walking in a winter wonderland.

I was hoping to center myself more, but after taking said shot this one really stood out to me more!
But I hope everyone had a great holiday! So great to be with family and celebrate; it's sad how fast it goes.
On another note I got a flash! I love it so much and actually used it in this shot! (It's in the comments below) I do prefer natural light but it will be a major help indoors and shadowy places outdoors.
Hope everyone has a great week!
City Perception Series (2/5)
View On Black, or View my most interesting stream ON BLACK!
I've been living in big cities ever since I was a little girl. For sure every city has its unique look, but I experience similar crowds, sounds, colors, and space in cities like Taipei, Hong Kong, and Vancouver. Compared to Taipei where I grow up, Vancouver is quite unique in a way that I can reach beaches or forests within 10-minute driving from the city center. It provides a great diversity of life styles for people living in such a beautiful city. Indeed city life in the concrete jungle is not much different in various cities. However, in Vancouver, I see people jogging and biking around the seawall at dawn while people spotted a lady pondering over with or without her camera gears the same time. To me, that's the beauty of living in Vancouver!
The Series is done in the past few days for my class assignment (yes once again...). I feel I can elaborate on the Series with more details! Your comments are more than welcome as usual! :-)

The Tower Hamlets Trayned Bandes were, of course, by their nature, a social as well as military organisation. This is also especially true of the re-created regiment, and is reflected in the civilian roles: craftsmen make useful items and repair equipment, musicians entertain us and the public, preachers watch out for our moral wellbeing, servants and clerks bring order to the lives of officers and goodwives and families lend their support and cater to the inner man!

You are looking at the Bridal Veil Falls of the American (Niagara) Falls on the extreme right of this photo..This is the beauty of the American Falls as I saw it on Sunday. I'm happy with the sensor in this new little sony of mine ;) I hope you enjoy this wintery scenic view of Niagara Falls...USA. Each and every time we go I see the beauty no matter what the weather conditions. I like the sensor on this new little sony ;) camera.
Niagara Falls is Romantic, 'kitschy' and fun!!
"•The Falls at Niagara are about 12,000 years old
•Falls were formed when melting glaciers formed massive fresh-water lakes (the Great Lakes) one of which (Lake Erie) ran downhill toward another (Lake Ontario). The rushing waters carved out a river in their descent and at one point passed over a steep cliff like formation (the Niagara escarpment). From the original falls going over the Niagara Escarpment, the water began to wear its way back up the river. The path that it left is known today as the Niagara Gorge (a deeply-cut and very scenic river path).
•The word Niagara comes from the word "onguiaahra" which means "a thundering noise".
•An "Old Scow" (a steel barge) remains stranded a few hundred meters above the Falls and has been marooned there since August 6, 1918 when a near tragedy was averted by three men who opened the dumping hatches of the barge to let water in and ground the out-of control boat.
•Water that flows over the Falls at Niagara ultimately ends up in Lake Ontario - from there, water drains by way of the St. Lawrence River in to the Atlantic Ocean.
•One of the bloodiest battles of the War of 1812 took place on July 25, 1814 at Lundy's Lane in Niagara Falls, Ontario... A total of 7500 Americans and Canadians fought for six hours. At the end, 1,000 soldiers lay dead or wounded."

[...] The sky is eternity. And "sun, moon and five stars" are "the manifestation of the time, which imitate eternity and a number of law following turn, are the moving images of eternal being who is" alone and not the will obey. What we see with our senses, is not heaven, not the original eternal being itself, solely by God's Spirit West. If we "want to live in the light of eternity," therefore, we need to get into the spirit of God.
"Is that possible?" You might ask. But, it's not about the possibility of achieving this goal - but the need.
Otherwise we would not even be able to only this to our time-bound and living in days and nights, months and years, measured life.
What is needed, however, which must be possible.
If the eternal, refuses to manifest in the "Forms of Time", then left it to the forms of time but not helpless themselves
If the Eternal is the moving, changing, sentient forms of the time denied it burrow yet in them. [...]
.
.
[…] Der Himmel ist die Ewigkeit. Und „Sonne, Mond und die fünf Sterne“ sind „die Erscheinungsformen der Zeit, welche die Ewigkeit nachahmen und einem Zahlengesetz folgend sich drehen“, sind die sich bewegende Abbilder des ewigen Wesens, das allein „ist“ und nicht dem Werden gehorchend. Was wir mit unseren Sinnen sehen, ist nicht der Himmel, nicht das ursprüngliche ewigen Wesens selbst, das allein Gottes Geist durchwest. Wenn wir daher „ im Licht der Ewigkeit leben wollen“, müssen wir in Gottes Geist eindringen.
„Ist das möglich?“ könnte man fragen. Allein, es geht nicht um die Möglichkeit, dieses Ziel zu erreichen – sondern um die Notwendigkeit.
Andernfalls wären wir nicht einmal in der Lage, auch nur dieses unser an die Zeit gebundenes und nach Tagen und Nächten, Monaten und Jahren gemessenes Leben zu leben.
Was aber notwendig ist, das muss möglich sein.
Wenn das Ewige, sich weigert, sich in den „Formen der Zeit“ zu manifestieren, dann überließe es die Formen der Zeit dennoch nicht hilflos sich selbst.
Wenn sich das Ewige sich den bewegten, wechselnden, fühlenden Formen der Zeit verweigert, so verbärge es sich dennoch in ihnen. […]

A little break from the California trip. This is from last evening on the VA side of Great Falls Park.
Sort of a 3 part story. The Good = this shot. I was happy with the location I found right down on the water coupled with the pretty tones in the sky. The Bad = the below shot. Not that it's terrible or anything, but I wish it were 'epic' or something along those lines, because I paid for it. The result of the below shot, was The Ugly. A cracked filter, and more painful, a cracked knee...it's an evening I won't soon forget.
A reminder that bad things can happen very very quickly. Stay safe out there...
Thanks for looking!

Cloud Gate is British artist Anish Kapoor's first public outdoor work installed in the United States. The 110-ton elliptical sculpture is forged of a seamless series of highly polished stainless steel plates, which reflect the city's famous skyline and the clouds above. A 12-foot-high arch provides a "gate" to the concave chamber beneath the sculpture, inviting visitors to touch its mirror-like surface and see their image reflected back from a variety of perspectives.
Inspired by liquid mercury, the sculpture is among the largest of its kind in the world, measuring 66-feet long by 33-feet high. Cloud Gate sits upon the At&T Plaza.
"What I wanted to do in Millennium Park is make something that would engage the Chicago skyline…so that one will see the clouds kind of floating in, with those very tall buildings reflected in the work. And then, since it is in the form of a gate, the participant, the viewer, will be able to enter into this very deep chamber that does, in a way, the same thing to one's reflection as the exterior of the piece is doing to the reflection of the city around."
-Anish Kapoor

I've been working with textures on my last 3 images, and is it's actually really addictive ;D. I took this shot last year whilst on a trip to Portsmouth harbour.

The best type of woodland for the wildlife enthusiast is undoubtedly one of mixed oak and pine, and there are still some good examples of this type of habitat dotted around the Algarve. If the oaks are Cork Oak, the woodland may be managed from time to time when the trees are being stripped of their valuable bark, but the ground is not treated with the herbicides and pesticides which are the scourge of so much of our landscape in northern Europe, and so many native plants are able to survive the management routine and continue to thrive there.
There are some excellent examples of this type of wildlife-rich woodland up towards and around the Monchique area, and also out towards the western Algarve between Vila do Bispo and Odeceixe. It is normally quite easy to access these areas, and unless land is fenced off or clearly being cultivated, it is usually perfectly acceptable to wander through the woods and you are unlikely to be challenged.
In April and May the woodlands are alive with the sound of Cuckoos, and numerous woodpeckers hammer away at the tree trunks in search of the bugs that live there. Other woodland birds include tits, including the Crested Tit, Azure-winged Magpies (which are increasing greatly in number in the Algarve) and warblers. In summer Nightingales can be heard in the woods too.
If not too intensively managed, the understory of many of these lightly wooded areas include cistus species and Strawberry Trees (Arbutus unedo), along with various types of heathers such as white-flowered Portuguese Heath (Erica lusitanica) and pink-flowered Erica multiflora which are both magnificent and covered in blossom in early spring. These woodlands are also filled with early-flowering bulbs which include the lovely Romulea bulbicodium, both One-leaved Squill (Scilla monophyllos) and Two-leaved Squill (Scilla bifolia), Spanish Iris (Iris Xiphium) and, in a few places, the Spanish Bluebell (Hyacynthoides hispanicus).
The most common wild orchid species to be found in this habitat is the Broad-leaved Helleborine (Epipactis helleborine), although they can be difficult to spot in the dappled light of the woods. On the edges of the woodland various tongue orchids flower, and they include Long-lipped (Ploughshare) Tongue Orchid (Serapias vomeracea), Small-flowered Tongue Orchid (Serapias parviflora) as well as the magnificent Heart-flowered Tongue Orchid (Serapias cordigera) with its large, blood-red flowers. An exciting find in this type of woodland is the rare orchid Violet Limodore (Limodorum abortivum). The stems of this plant are a striking dark purple as they emerge from the ground in the form of spears, and the flowers (if they open) are also violet. The Latin name of the plant is an indication of the fact that the flowers don't always open, even though the inflorescences may appear above the ground and look as if full flowering is imminent for several weeks. It appears that this flower is capable of self-pollination within the bud in years when the flowers don't actually open.
If the woodland has a stream it can be a good place to observe many insects but especially dragonflies. The Golden-ringed Dragonfly (Cordulegaster boltonii) particularly likes these slight acidic woodland streams for breeding.
in the area would be ideal.
I was fortunate to get off work early a few days ago so I high-tailed it down to the Central Meadow. This was one of the scenes from off the trail at Chambers Bay Golf Course. Loved the tug at twilight, but loved finding a seagull in the finished product more! :-)
This is a hand-held, 3 exposure, -2/0/+2, HDR tonemapped with Photomatix and further processed with PhotoShop Elements 3 and Microsoft Picture it! 10 Premium. I liked the dream-like quality of the final results. :-)

The Bosphorus Bridge, also called the First Bosphorus Bridge (Turkish: Boğaziçi Köprüsü or 1. Boğaziçi Köprüsü) is a bridge in Istanbul, Turkey spanning the Bosphorus strait (Turkish: Boğaziçi). The bridge is located between Ortaköy (European side) and Beylerbeyi (Asian side). It is a gravity anchored suspension bridge with steel pylons and inclined hangers. The aerodynamic deck is hanging on zigzag steel cables. It is 1,510 m long with a deck width of 39 m. The distance between the towers (main span) is 1,074 m (World rank: 13th) and their height over road level is 105 m. The clearance of the bridge from sea level is 64 m. It was the 4th longest suspension bridge in the world when completed in 1973, and the longest outside the United States of America.

I don't know if you all know but this year's Vday clashes with the first day of the Lunar New Year.
And to be honest, I can't be arsed with both.
I don't celebrate V-day, even if I'm attached, I just don't see the point. I'd rather have a good make out session than a bouquet of flowers or a box of chocolates, but that's just me.
And Chinese New Year?
I really dislike visiting people, especially certain relatives whom my family members aren't on good terms with.
And this year, my Chinese New Year break is pathetic because I've got 2 major assignments due right when school starts again. One good thing though, is that I've gotten my hands on Dante's Inferno Death Edition, I have ALWAYS been fascinated with the poem and it's awesome that there's a game based on it!!! Will probably do an inspired shot or something soon =)
I think the next game I want to get my hands on will be Heavy Rain.
This shot was pretty spontaneous, I wore that qipao thingy and was wondering what to shoot, so I just randomly threw my quilt on the floor, grabbed some random items from my table and took some photos.
I had quite a few different edits for this shot and an outtake which will be in the comments.
Happy Vday to all and Happy CNY to asian flickrites =)

The Bignoniaceae, or Trumpet Creeper Family, is a family of flowering plants comprising of about 650-750 species in 116-120 genera. Members of the family are mostly trees and shrubs, and more rarely lianas (Podranea and Macfadyena) and herbaceous plants in 116-120 genera. As shrubs, they are twine climbers or tendril climbers, and rarely root climbers.
Other common names for this family include jacaranda family, bignonia family or catalpa family. This family is commonly found as ornamental plants due to their large and often colorful flowers. Important members include the calabash tree (Crescentia cujete) and many genera cultivated in horticulture: Campsis, Catalpa, Jacaranda, Kigelia, Pandorea, Spathodea, and Tabebuia.

Waiting for iPhone 3g - Jul 18, 2008 - 094
On the corner of Fifth Avenue and 60th Street -- i.e., at the opposite end of the block where the iPhone fans were waiting in line -- this young couple staked out a spot with a sign that said "Feed us." I gave them some money; I hope they did use it to buy some food ...
A few months after I originally uploaded this photo, this picture has been viewed so many times that it is now the 8th most-viewed of all 11,000+ public photos on my Flickr site -- and 3 people have marked it as a "favorite". I'm flattered by the attention, but also humbled: I have no idea what it is that makes the photo so popular. The couple shown here had nothing to do with the main focus of this collection of photos -- i.e., people waiting in line to get a new Apple iPhone3G -- and probably had no interest at all in the phone. I now wish I had spoken to them, to find out who they were, where they came from, what they were planning to do when they left (as they did shortly after this picture was taken, because the cops shooed them away). And now, three months later, I have no idea where they have gone, or what they are doing ... or whether anyone actually did feed them.

Silly me: after the iPhone 3g had been out for a full week, I thought I could stroll right into the Apple Store on Fifth Avenue & 59th Street in mid-town Manhattan, and simply buy one without any muss, fuss, bother, or delay.
But when I arrived at 11 AM, I found a line of approximately 150 people waiting outside in the broiling sun, not seeming to move forward at all; it turned out that the Apple store "concierge" folks were letting them in in groups of ten, when the previous ten had been taken care of. When I asked the woman how long she had been waiting, she said, "Four hours" -- she had arrived at 7 AM, having already determined that the AT&T stores were sold out throughout New Jersey and Connecticut.
Well, I'm a gadget freak and a Mac fan, but there's a limit to my passion for such things; four hours was just too much. So instead, I decided to take a bunch of pictures of the people who were in the line. Of course, I have no idea whethere the people queued up in front of Apple stores in other cities (or at other stores here in NYC) are similar to this group ... but I'm inclined to think that they are. And if that's true, then the demographics of this group -- in terms of age, gender, nationality, ethnic groups, etc. -- is particularly intriguing. I saw only one guy dressed in a corporate uniform of suit and tie; Apple may be trying to break into the "enterprise" market, but that's not who was standing in line for all those hours in the sun...

L'Amerigo Vespucci è un veliero della Marina Militare costruito come nave scuola per l'addestramento degli Allievi Ufficiali dei ruoli normali dell'Accademia Navale.
La decisione di costruire l'Amerigo Vespucci venne assunta nel 1925, allo scopo di sostituire l'omonima nave scuola; un incrociatore a motore e a vela, ormai prossimo alla radiazione, che fu posto in disarmo nel 1928 e ormeggiato nel porto di Venezia per essere adibito ad asilo infantile, riservato agli orfani dei marinai.
Il Vespucci fu progettato insieme al gemello Cristoforo Colombo nel 1930 dall'ingegnere Francesco Rotundi, tenente colonnello del Genio Navale e Direttore dei cantieri navali di Castellammare Stabia (Napoli), riprendendo i progetti del veliero Monarca, l'ammiraglia della Real Marina del Regno delle Due Sicilie, poi ribattezzato Re Galantuomo quando fu requisito dalla Marina piemontese dopo l'invasione delle Due Sicilie. I progetti ricopiati erano dell'ingegnere navale duosiciliano Sabatelli ed erano custoditi a Castellammare Stabia insieme alle tecnologie necessarie alla costruzione di questa tipologia di imbarcazione.
La nave-scuola fu varata il 22 febbraio 1931 e il 15 ottobre 1931, nel porto di Genova, ricevette la bandiera di combattimento nelle mani del suo primo comandante, Augusto Radicati di Marmorito. Il suo compito fu quello di affiancare il Cristoforo Colombo nell'attività di addestramento, fino al termine della seconda guerra mondiale, quando per l'effetto degli accordi internazionali, il Cristoforo Colombo dovette essere ceduto all'URSS, quale risarcimento dei danni di guerra.
Dal 1946 al 1952 è stata l'unica nave scuola a vela della marina militare italiana fino all'entrata in servizio dell'Ebe, un brigantino goletta costruito nel 1921 ed acquistato dalla Marina Militare nel 1952. A partire dal 1955 e stata affiancata da un altro veliero acquistato dalla Francia e ribattezzato Palinuro. Attualmente l'Amerigo Vespucci è la più anziana nave della Marina Militare ancora in servizio.
Il motto della nave, ufficializzato nel 1978, è «Non chi comincia ma quel che persevera» ed esprime la sua vocazione alla formazione ed addestramento dei futuri ufficiali della Marina Militare. I precedenti motti sono stati: «Per la Patria e per il Re»; sostituito nel 1946 con «Saldi nella furia dei venti e degli eventi».
L'addestramento si svolge attraverso le Campagne Addestrative. Queste Crociere d'Istruzione, effettuate già 71 volte, avvengono con itinerari diversi; in particolare questa nave scuola si è recata in Nord Europa 37 volte, 20 in Mediterraneo, 4 in Atlantico Orientale, 7 in Nord America, 1 in Sud America e 1 circumnavigando il Globo.
Oltre all'addestramento in particolare nell'ultimo decennio, ha spesso avuto il compito di ambasciatore sul mare dell'arte, della cultura e dell'ingegneria italiana,[1] presentandosi in molti dei più importanti porti del mondo in particolari occasioni come ad Auckland (Nuova Zelanda) nell'ottobre 2002 in occasione della 31° edizione dell'America's Cup e più recentemente ad Atene nel 2004 per le Olimpiadi ed a Portsmouth nel 2005 per la commemorazione della battaglia di Trafalgar ove ha avuto un ruolo di primo piano.
È un veliero che mantiene vive le vecchie tradizioni. Le vele sono ancora in tela olona, le cime sono tutte ancora di materiale vegetale, e tutte le manovre vengono rigorosamente eseguite a mano; ogni ordine a bordo viene impartito dal comandante, tramite il nostromo, con il fischietto; l'imbarco e lo sbarco di un Ufficiale avviene con gli onori al barcarizzo a seconda del grado dell'ospite.
Nel 2006, a 75 anni dall'entrata in servizio, ha ricevuto presso l'Arsenale Militare Marittimo della Spezia pesanti lavori di manutenzione con la sostituzione completa dell'albero di trinchetto per sopraggiunti limiti di usura, ricostruito fedelmente all'originale ricorrendo alle artigianali tecniche dell'epoca; la sostituzione di alcune lamiere a scafo richiodate da abili artigiani e la riconfigurazione del locale ausiliari con impianti di recente concezione.
North of Keswick in the English Lake District and measuring over 3,000 ft is the mighty Skiddaw mountain. I shot both photos whilst on a hike within the eastern part of Whinlatter Forest (west of Keswick).
This was was my birthday weekend away and we had a pretty cool time.
You think that sounds good? Well, the previous year I was in Las Vegas, New Mexico and the year before I was in Tombstone, Arizona. Of course, we made up for it this year as I was in Fredericksburg Texas!
Three outta four ain't bad at all. . . . :))

This is taken from the *photographers bridge* as I call it (see image below). It's a shot anybody could pull off, you have a great view here. A nifty sky really helps to 'make' the picture. There was not a lot of colour tweakery involved here - this is what pretty much really happened during a 25 second exposure!
Enjoy your weekend! :)

Para los mayas el jaguar era un dios y lo llamaban Balam. Símbolo de poder, señor de la noche, soberano del inframundo. Cuenta la leyenda que el Dios del Sol, se transforma en jaguar para poder viajar durante la noche por el mundo de los muertos y luchar contra él; su victoria simboliza el amanecer de cada nuevo día. Su hermosa piel moteada representa las estrellas del firmamento.
For the Maya, the jaguar was a god and they called it Balam. Symbol of power, lord of the night, sovereign of the underworld. The legend tells us that the god of the Sun transforms into a jaguar to travel the world of the dead, at night, and fight against it; its victory symbolizes the dawn of each new day. Its gorgeous mottled skin represents the stars in the Sky.

Our deepest sympathy .
There is a time for everything,
And a season for every activity under heaven:
A time to be born and a time to die
A time to plant and a time to uproot,
A time to kill and a time to heal,
A time to tear down and a time to build,
A time to weep and a time to laugh,
A time to mourn and a time to dance,
A time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
A time to embrace and a time to refrain,
A time to search and a time to give up,
A time to keep and a time to throw away,
A time to tear and a time to mend,
A time to be silent and a time to speak,
A time to love and a time to hate,
A time for war and a time for peace.

*The Taj Mahal (pronounced /tɑdʒ mə'hɑl/ or pronounced /tɑʒ mə'hɑl/; Hindi: ताज महल; Persian/Urdu: تاج محل) , is a mausoleum located in Agra, India, that was built under Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his favorite wife, Mumtaz Mahal.
The Taj Mahal (also "the Taj") is considered the finest example of Mughal architecture, a style that combines elements from Persian, Turkish, Indian, and Islamic architectural styles. In 1983, the Taj Mahal became a UNESCO World Heritage Site and was cited as "the jewel of Muslim art in India and one of the universally admired masterpieces of the world's heritage."
While the white domed marble and tile mausoleum is most familiar, Taj Mahal is an integrated symmetric complex of structures that was completed around 1648. Ustad Ahmad Lahauri is generally considered to be the principal designer of the Taj Mahal.

ENGLISH
Contemporary scholars have suggested that one of the first written references to the Roma, under the term "Atsinganoi", (Greek), dates from the Byzantine era during a time of famine in the 9th century. In 800 CE, Saint Athanasia gave food to "foreigners called the Atsinganoi" near Thrace. Later, in 803 CE, Theophanes the Confessor wrote that Emperor Nikephoros I had the help of the "Atsinganoi" to put down a riot with their "knowledge of magic".
"Atsingani" was used to refer to itinerant fortune tellers, ventriloquists and wizards who visited the Emperor Constantine IX in the year 1054. The hagiographical text, The Life of St. George the Anchorite, mentions that the "Atsingani" were called on by Constantine to help rid his forests of the wild animals which were killing his livestock. They are later described as sorcerers and evildoers and accused of trying to poison the Emperor's favorite hound.
In 1322 CE a Franciscan monk named Simon Simeonis described people resembling these "atsinganoi" living in Crete and in 1350 CE Ludolphus of Sudheim mentioned a similar people with a unique language whom he called Mandapolos, a word which some theorize was possibly derived from the Greek word mantes (meaning prophet or fortune teller).
Around 1360, an independent Romani fiefdom (called the Feudum Acinganorum) was established in Corfu and became "a settled community and an important and established part of the economy."
By the 14th century, the Roma had reached the Balkans; by 1424 CE, Germany; and by the 16th century, Scotland and Sweden. Some Roma migrated from Persia through North Africa, reaching Europe via Spain in the 15th century. The two currents met in France. Roma began immigrating to the United States in colonial times, with small groups in Virginia and French Louisiana. Larger-scale immigration began in the 1860s, with groups of Romnichal from Britain. The largest number immigrated in the early 1900s, mainly from the Vlax group of Kalderash. Many Roma also settled in Latin America.

CASTELLANO
La palabra "gitano" procede de "egiptano", porque en el siglo XV se pensaba que los gitanos procedían de Egipto. Cuando penetraron en Europa, muchos grupos de gitanos se presentaban a sí mismos como "nobles egipcianos"; así, en 1425, dos rom pidieron un salvoconducto al rey Juan II de Aragón, en el cual se hacían llamar "condes del Egipto Menor". La palabra "calé" parece proceder del indostaní "kâlâ", que significa "negro".
Dado que se pueden encontrar en multitud de estados de todo el mundo, existen una gran variedad de etnónimos. Los principales son los siguientes:
Zíngaros
Término derivado probablemente del griego Ατσίγγανος (literalmente intocable), nombre atribuido a una secta maniquea procedente de Frigia, aunque hay lingüistas que la consideran una falsa etimología. De este término provienen los derivados en alemán (Zigeuner), en húngaro (cigány), en italiano (zingaro) y en portugués (cigano). En francés se usa con doble ortografía (tzigane o tsigane). Los romaníes prefieren la forma sin z, porque esta letra recuerda al tatuaje empleado por los nazis en los campos de concentración para identificarlos, a pesar de lo cual es lo recomendado por la Academia Francesa.
Bohemios
Término utilizado en francés (bohémiens o boumians) por haber entrado los gitanos europeos en el siglo XV mediante un salvoconducto del rey de Bohemia.
Sin embargo, continúa siendo un desafío polémico para la antropología, la historia y la sociología a la hora de explicar sus orígenes, su evolución en el tiempo y sus estrategias de supervivencia en sociedades dentro de las cuales siempre son minoritarios.
La opinión más extendida afirma, a partir de análisis genéticos y lingüísticos y a la vista de los documentos conservados, que proceden del Punjab, en cualquier caso de alguna zona comprendida entre India y Pakistán. Los datos lingüísticos apuntan a que los antepasados de los gitanos vivieron en el noroeste de la India, antes de migrar al occidente pasando por la costa sur del Mar Caspio. Se desconoce si con anterioridad habían migrado de otro lugar aún más remoto. También se desconocen las causas exactas de su migración hacia el oeste, que se produjo en torno al siglo XI. Tras una estancia al norte de Persia, se desplazaron, nuevamente, hasta Asia Menor, donde se asentaron durante el siglo XIV. La inestabilidad política provocó el primer éxodo fielmente documentado hacia el oeste y el sur: una rama del pueblo gitano se internó en la Europa Central y otra descendió hasta el norte de África. La entrada de los gitanos en Europa se documenta a partir de los primeros años del siglo XV. A fines de ese siglo, la ruta del sur y la del norte ya se habrían unido en algún punto del sur de Europa (en Francia o España).

Mom and I had the opportunity to stay at this B and B at the beginning of summer in Durango, Colorado. We had a little cottage all to ourselves with a nice front porch with a swing. The breakfast we received was delicious and they had a happy hour in the evening. The Inn had these wonderful ponds and great gardens to walk around. Across the highway, you could watch the Durango/Silverton narrow gauge railroad go by in the morning and come back in the evening. If you are ever in the Durango area, I recommend you to look in to staying here. Click here for the their website. I suggest clicking the link and having a look at how wonderful this place is.
I used textures by Encouter, I'm not able to find them on here but I appreciate their works of art.
today we went to Deception Pass. more particularly on a small beach located 2 minutes north from the bridge, called Rosario Beach. lots of hummingbirds were hoovering and squeeking in the bushes just above the beach. i shot these guys for probably two hours straight. this is only a glimpse of the shots i have taken. a very exciting day!
on a side note, i have to admit i am more reluctant to heavily post process bird shots like these. colors are already there in a very explanatory way. maybe i'll find more ways with time. :)

Outside just killing time and making noise
And outside the daylight comes, the daylight goes and
Weightless affairs that weigh less than air weighs
makes no stairways just stairs that go nowhere
Don't dream, that it's a dream it is what it seems.
That it's a dream it is what it seems.
Climbing from over stimulated states to hearing
Cold radio and licenses plates but don't dream,
That it's a dream it is what it seems
That it's a dream it is what it seems
Behind every desire is another one waiting to be liberated when the first one's sated
Water skiing, the water's soft the water's hard
You act nice, a black birthday card I threw it away
Grown-up life, is like eating speed or flying a plane
It's too bright, it's too bright
Outside just killing time and making noise
And outside the daylight comes, the daylight goes
Climbing from over stimulated states to hearing
Cold radio and licenses plates but don't dream,
Climbing from over stimulated states to hearing
Cold radio and licenses plates but don't dream,
That it's a dream it is what it seems
That it's a dream it is what it seems
White and Black hats hide behind each other's backs, all the time.
Behind every desire is another one waiting to be liberated when the first one's sated

The Keel-billed Toucan, known as the "bill bird" locally, is the national bird of Belize. The most obvious characteristic of the toucan is the huge yellow, orange, red, green and black bill. The toucan's bill is amazingly dextrous and allows the bird to feed on a variety of tropical forest fruits.
The Keel-billed toucans are a very social bird and can often be seen in flocks of six or more birds. They are found throughout Belize's forests and nest in holes in tree trunks. They lay one to four eggs and the parent birds take turns incubating the eggs. This bird displays a rapid, heavy flapping of the wings when flying and calls with a creek creek sound, similar to a frog.
Toucans are primarily fruit eaters, feeding on a wide variety of tropical fruits of the forest. It feeds by snipping off the fruit and flipping its head back to gulp the fruit. Toucans will also feed on insects, lizards, snakes and event he eggs of smaller birds.

Matthew sent me a request to process his picture. However, he sent me a low resolution. I am still waiting for him to send me the original shot.
While waiting, I decided to do something with the one he sent me and here is what I came up with. Not as good as I want to but I think it's another way of showing our images.

The lighthouse is located on Lizard Point at Marsden, but takes its name from Souter Point, which is located a mile to the south. This was the intended site for the lighthouse, but it was felt that Lizard Point offered better visibility, as the cliffs there are higher, so the lighthouse was built there instead. The Souter Lighthouse name was retained in order to avoid confusion with the then recently built Lizard Lighthouse in Cornwall.
Designed by James Douglass and opened in 1871, the lighthouse was built due to the dangerous reefs directly under the water in the surrounding area. In one year alone - 1860 - there were 20 shipwrecks. This contributed to making this coastline the most dangerous in the country with an average of around 44 shipwrecks per every mile of coastline.
Souter Lighthouse's original generator
Souter Lighthouse was the first to use alternating electric current, the most advanced lighthouse technology of its day. Douglass also designed the fourth incarnation of the Eddystone Lighthouse off the coast of Plymouth.
The 800,000 candle power light was generated using carbon arcs and not a standard filament bulb and could be seen for up to 26 miles. The electricity was generated using a steam engine located in the engine house.

Decided to take a break from all the Hong Kong posts and dug this up from the archives. I still have alot of SF photos that I haven't posted in flickr. Hopefully, I'll get to share the rest of them this month or the following months. I am officially DSLR-less, I sold all my nikon equipment and I am undecided on what to get next. Logic says, 5Dmk2 but my pocket says otherwise. Maybe I'll sell a couple of guitars, that should help no?

I've always been a big fan of large earthworks art and Olrick Thorson's Standing stones in Acasia California is one of the most impressive I've ever seen. The sheer size of this project is almost hard to believe. ( over 120 feet tall) The remote location near the Oregonian border in Northern Califronia makes it hard to visit, ten mile dirt road and then a hard scramble down to the shore. But once you make the hike, it's so worth it.
The dream of philanthropist William Waits, who grew up on a small dairy farm not far from this spot, the Balance Rocks is the work of famed Norwegian Sculpture Olrick Thorson. This project took almost two years of his life and cost what must be huge sums of money. (because the Waits foundation is completely private entity and wont disclose the cost, no one knows how much. Unbelieveably these are free standing rocks and are not attached at all. Apparently the sheer mass of the rock is far greater than the wind sheer forces of even the strongest winds and once the proper balance is acheived they are very hard to move at all. (I would still think twice about kayacking by on a windy day however!)
Thorson is known for his wry sense of humor and it shows here in his clever use of pre-carving the massive rocks to give them the shape of smaller river rocks one usually associates with these carrins. An entire village of japansese masons lived in the town of Acasia for a whole year preparing the rocks the shape of which were designed with hi tech computers to ensure the proper mass and and size for optimal balancing.
Tragically, Thorson's younger Brother Yanni was crushed to death in a freak accident early on in the carving process. A plaque dedicating the work to his memory sits at the end of the trail not far from where I took this picture. If you're ever in Acasia California, you gotta go check this thing out!
(In a strange coincidence note Olrick's Father Tor was a confidant of my great uncle arthur and they used to hunt mushrooms togeather.)

It's always tricky trying to choose a good day to photograph the beach
especially when you live an hour away so a lot of it is based on Internet
research before making the trip. I have found that webcams can offer some
insight as to beach conditions and I have many bookmarked which I check
before making the choice to head to the beach. The weather is even more
difficult to judge. Many times I have left dramatic skies only to find the
clear skies over the Pacific. Then there are the surf conditions.
Granted there are sites that cover the surf but reading them is somewhat
tricky. Finally I use Google Earth with the weather maps and cloud maps
turned on. If I am going for the sunset, I will also take a peek at a free
program called The Photographer's Ephemeris which shows the angle and times
of the sunset. This can be very helpful in determining when and where the
sun will set in relation to the land. In the end though, there is still an
element of lucky. I've gone out on great days only to be shut down by a
storm on the beach. Other days I have gone out when the weather really
sucked and to find it open up and become perfect right at the sunset. On
those rare occasions I am often the only one on the beach. Not so on this
day. There was a group of photographers crowded along the beach. I
thought to stop and chat but was busy catching the last bits of light.
Turned out that there were several people there who I have listed as
contacts on Flickr. Perhaps next time.

Built on top Colina da Penha or Penha Hill, also known as Bishop Hill because of the Bishop Residence, is a Chapel of Our Lady of Penha which was first built in 1622.
The first chapel was erected by the crew and passengers of a ship which had a narrow escape from the Dutch.
Later the chapel served as shrine for sailors embarking on often hazardous voyages.
The chapel today dates back to 1837 when it was completely rebuilt along with the Bishop's Palace.
It is open daily from 9:00 am to 5:30 pm.
The bell tower of the Church is very distinctive and can be seen anywhere from the harbor.
On one side of the large open courtyard fronting the church is a marble image of the Blessed Virgin Mary facing the border of China, as if praying for that magnificent land.
Her prayers are definitely bearing fruit because now thousands of Chinese tourist dutifully climb up her little hill.
At the foot of a flight of stone steps is a popular grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes.
Along the grotto is also a nice garden with fountains, seating and children's playground.
Nearby is a bronze gravestone with Portuguese inscriptions indicating the resting place of Bishop John Bouner of Macau who was buried here on 18 February 1918
On a clear day the panoramic view from here includes not only Macau but across the Pearl River into China.
One can see the whole harbor and a great collection of old and modern architecture: the Chief Executive's Palace, other colonial residences, the Macau Tower, and the man-made lakes.
macauEvery year, on the 13th of May, thousand of faithful joins the image of Our Lady of Fatima for a pilgrimage and procession.
The procession begins from Sto. Domingo Church and meanders through the narrow streets of Macau.
The procession finally ends in the little courtyard of Penha Church.
Every year at this day, thousands of devotees coming from all over, never fails to accompany the Blessed Virgin Mary.
