An old man sells posters of Benazir Bhutto in the street, in Rawalpindi. Taken after the elections, this is not part of the PPP campaign: there's really a genuine fascination for her amongst the people, especially in the Sindh, her native province. Her tragic death turned her into a martyr, a symbol and an icon, obliterating the facts (2 mandates tainted by corruption charges, few reforms, and little changes on the women condition). Even the circumstances of her death are clouded with mystery: was she killed by the explosion (knocking her head against the car rooftop), as the official version of the government pretends (backed by the Scotland Yard investigation) or shot by the gunman (as her family claims) ? Many people believe there's a cover-up and more or less directly blame Musharraf, but the Bhutto family has always refused exhuming the body for an autopsy, which would be the only way to ascertain the cause of her death. Both PPP and PML-N have however agreed that one the first measure of their new government would be to request an investigation by the UN.

I got L Glass!!!
Well I have finally joined the L Glass club. I wasn't sure if I would ever get there but I made it. So what is the secret handshake anyway?
I have thought long and hard about getting the 16-35mm f/2.8L but I could not bring myself to spend that much on one lens. After some sage advice from Cory Disbrow, I decided to get this lens along with the 70-200mm f/4L instead. I would get more range for less $$. Obviously it is not f/2.8, but after I start taking some consistently high quality shots (not there yet) I think I will be able to justify it to myself. Cory did mention something that gave me pause. He said that I might consider holding off until I could afford the 70-200 f/4L with IS. It is double the price and I am not known for being patient where gear is concerned (Sorry, Julie). However I did hold off for a bit to think it over. I knew I would use the 17-40. I have rented it and loved it. I have often wanted to go wider than my existing 28-135mm would allow.
So now my quandary, I have camera $$ to spend and I am not sure what to spend it on. My options:
-The 70-200mm 4/L without IS (side note, I just lost a bid for a used one on eBay as I was typing this)
-The Tokina 11-16 f/2.8 - I really like what Tom Bricker has done with this lens (even though its on a Nikon) but I will need to wait for one to be in stock @ B&H or buy from Hong Kong. Yeah, I know it will lean my camera bag to the wide angle side, but I can always rent a telephoto if I need it. (I have a reservation for the 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM II for a wedding/cruise in October)
-Upgrade my 50mm prime to f/1.4 from f/1.8. Not sure how much of an edge the additional aperture will get me on dark Disney rides. I have yet to use my 7D @ a Disney park, so I am not sure what I can do with it. I have only used it with my XTi body.
-Forget the lenses and buy Photoshop. I use PSPx2 but I have yet to use all of its capabilities. Also, next year my daughter will hit high school (Nooooooo!!!!) and some places will let her get the student discount as a result.
Any opinions?
I am going to put my XTi body on eBay in a couple days to fund my purchase of
Manfrotto 055XPROB Pro Tripod Legs along with a Manfrotto 322RC2 Joystick Head, so if anybody is interested......

View On Black, or View my most interesting stream ON BLACK!
It's been a while since I did a photo walk around sunset time. Not only because I've got tighter schedule back in Taiwan, but also the weather condition is far from OK to get a decent sunset view... Nevertheless here I am in the middle of nowhere around coastal shore in Chunghwa, central Taiwan, trying to capture the sunset!
As a matter of fact, I did not reach the destination I originally planned to. I was both late and lost when trying to locate the beach I wanted to be... I made up my mind to make some shots at the beach near where I pulled over my car! But before I could reach the beach, I needed to climb over concrete groyne fields. I think it's worthwhile as I kind of like the simplicity of the view here!
Honestly speaking the real challenge is how to get back to the car after sunset shooting. Imagine the situation... I was carrying "sandy" tripod, climbed up big cement stones, with my rainboots and in the dark! It's really spooky! I'm glad I managed to survive here! lol...

Ngong Ping
Lantau Island
Hong-Kong
View from Tian Tan Buddha
Tian Tan Buddha
Tian Tan Buddha (天壇大佛) is an enormous 34 meter statue, one of the five giant Buddha statues in China, situated in Ngong Ping, Lantau Island. The statue comprises of 202 bronze pieces and with a total weight in excess of 250 tonnes it is the world's tallest outdoor seated bronze Buddha. The construction of the giant statue took nearly ten years to complete and was unveiled in 1993, with an estimated total cost of $68 million.
The Buddha is named after Tian Tan which is the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, but is also known as Po Lin Buddha because it is an integral part of the Po Lin Monastery. The monastery initially known as the Big Hut was founded in 1906 by Zen masters Da Yue, Dun Xiu and Yue Ming of the Jin Shan Monastery of Zhe Jiang Province. It is the major centre of Buddhism in Hong Kong and major tourist attraction, especially with the induction of the Buddha statue adjacent to the monastery.
Tian Tan Buddha, positioned on a lotus throne surrounded by eight smaller bronze statues resembling gods, oversees the monastery which is build on a plateau rising 2,330 feet above sea level. Buddha's expression appears majestic and tranquil, symbolising the congruent relationship between people, nature, and religion. Tian Tan Buddha is the only statue of its kind that gazes towards the North; all other Giant Buddha statues gaze towards the South. Due to its immense weight the statue is internally supported by a steel metal framework and the Buddha is positioned on a three-platform altar. The elevated position of the entire platform comprises of 268 steps.
Po Lin Monastery
The Po Lin Monastery is located in Ngong Ping on Lantau Island in Hong Kong. Originally, the Buddhist monastery was built by three monks andwas initially called Da Maopeng. In 1924, however, it was renamedPo Lin Monastery. About 70 years later, the Po Lin Monastery has become one ofthe most renowned and most popular tourist destinations in Hong Kong.
The Monastery consists of the Da Xiong Bao Dian (the Great Hall of Treasure), the Maitreya Hall, the Hall of Ti-tsang Bodhisattva, the Weituo Hall, the Banruo Hall, the Sutra-Collection Hall and other impressive structures. In the Da Xiong Bao Dian, for example, are enshrined three Buddhas - Sakyamuni, Dipamkarara and Maitreya. In the Hall of Ti-tsang Bodhisattva there stands a bronze statue of Ti-tsang Bodhisattva, which weighs approximately 200 kilograms (441 pounds). There is also a 1,000 kilogram bronze bell.

The Collector Earl's Garden (Arundel Castle), Opened by HRH The Prince of Wales on 14th May 2008.
The new formal garden at Arundel has been conceived as a light-hearted tribute to Thomas Howard, 14th Earl of Arundel (1585-1646), known as ‘The Collector’. He died in exile in Padua during the English Civil War and though his body was brought back to England and buried in the Fitzalan Chapel at Arundel, the elaborate tomb which he had specified in his will was never erected. This garden, adjoining the church, may now be an appropriate memorial for the future.

Arundel Castle in Arundel, West Sussex, England is a restored medieval castle. It was founded by Roger de Montgomery on Christmas Day 1067. Roger became the first to hold the earldom of Arundel by the graces of William the Conqueror. The castle was damaged in the English Civil War and then restored in the 18th and 19th centuries.
From the 11th century onward, the castle has served as a hereditary stately home and has been in the family of the Duke of Norfolk for over 800 years. It is still the principal seat of the Norfolk family.

In English:
So here is the second installment of my monthly self portrait series. I am a little late in taking the shot and posting it, but that's because I was waiting on my new light stands and shoot-through umbrellas that were shipped to me here in France.
Now, the philosophic part:
During November, the frantic pace of school in France has become even more frantic. Each week I have had a different "contrôle continu" (read: quiz worth a sixth of my grade or thereabouts) in one of my classes. And each week, I have felt more or less like I am improving on each one. However, my scores are still not anywhere near where I would like them to be. The grading system in France is very different than in the United States. Everything that we do is scored out of 20. On my first "contrôle continu" in dynamics, I received a 1 out of 20. Ouch. On my first Stress contrôle I got 6 out of 20. Vibrations was maybe 4 and I just took my second contrôle in dynamics which will probably be around 4 or 5 as well. However, the average passing grade in these classes is MUCH lower. For a class of normal difficulty as low as a 10 or 8 is a passing grade and for very difficult classes like dynamics, a 5 is sometimes a passing grade (based on the curve). My study habits are starting to be refined and I am for the first time in my life going to a weekly tutor, which has helped loads with understanding all the things that go on that the professors assume the French students know, but that us international students don't. I'm still fearful of failing classes, but I feel like I can scrape by this semester and will be a-ok for next semester.
Now the photographical part:
The title of this picture also applies to my photography. Now that I have my light stands, flashes, and umbrellas and the various other pieces, I feel like I can start taking this portrait thing seriously. The above photo has barely been photoshopped, The only thing I did was darken the shadows on the ground and on my face a little bit. There is a flash through an umbrella camera right, and a bare flash behind the rhino, both at half power. Which, of course, brings me to the rhino. This guy is just sitting over by the humanities building on our campus and from time to time people paint him different colors. I don't know why and I don't think it can be explained, except by saying that this is France. Things are different here. The generally odd proportionality in the photo is created, for all you non-photographically technically inclined, by using an ultrawide angle lens. My left hand in this shot is about 2 inches from the lens in this shot, which means that from the cameras perspective, it is a lot larger than the rest of my body. The same thing goes for the head of the rhino. It is a proportionally correct (in terms of the sizes of all the parts) in real life but here the head, and especially the horn look a lot bigger. Pretty cool stuff, eh?
Anywho, there's the update on school and photography, I hope all of you people back home are doing well. Thanks for reading this and keeping tabs on me, as I am not the best at keeping in touch with people.
En français: (et un peu plus court parce que ce n'est pas vraiment obligatoire d'expliquer le system des notes françaises pour les francophones)
C'est le deuxième realisation de mon serie des portraits-autonômes. Elle a été prise un peu en retard parce que j'attendais pour la livraison des Etats-Unis des materiaux comme les pieds lumières, les parapluies photographiques, et des autres choses comme ça.
La partie philosophique;
Pout ce mois-là. le titre de ma photographie est "Saisir la bête et ne pas le lâcher!" En novembre, j'ai commencé d'assez reussir dans mes cours. Chaque semaine, je passait un contrôle continu dans un de mes sujets et chaque semaine je me sens que je me suis amélioré. J'ai pas encore recevoir des vrais bonnes notes, mais je suis assez sûr maintenant que j'ai la capacité de passer mes cours cette semêstre. C'est bizarre pour moi ici avec les notes encore. Aux Etats-Unis, il faut recevoir plus que 70% dans un cours pour le passer (imaginez: plus que 14 et normalement une note moyen est comme 85 vers 100% (17-20)) Alors c'est assez déprimé quand je reçoit un 4 ou 5 ou moins ici en France. Mais ça va, j'ai commencé d'être étudiant français, Je vais le faire.
La partie photographique;
La titre de ma photo signifie aussi le début de mes photographies portraits. J'ai maintenant des flashs, des pieds pour les flashs et les parapluies, alors je peux commencer joeur avec l'éclairage pour bien améliorer mes photos. Cette photo-là a été prise avec flash avec parapluie à la droite du appareil et un flash derrière le rhino, les deux à demi-puissance. La perspective (avec la grosse main et tête du rhino) a été realisé avec un objectif grand-angle. Ma main est seulement quelques centimètres du objectif ici. Et le rhinocéros? Il est juste ici au campus d'INSA. De temps en temps il est repeint. Je ne comprends pas, mais c'est cool.
Merci pour le lire! C'est ma vie en France pour le mois de novembre. A plus!

An odd sign we saw in some Tube station. I have absolutely no idea what it actually refers to, but considering that I am a PHP developer by trade, this was quite funny to me.
Taken at the L.A. Zoo yesterday. When I was composing this through my viewfinder I thought I'd create some textures during processing to make it look like a painting. Well what do you know, nature pretty much did the job. I didn't do much here except for converting RAW to JPEG and doing some subtle curve adjustment in LAB mode. I couldn't have done a better "painting" job than what nature has done here. I merely captured the moment.
This one's for all of you, my dear friends. May you all have an enjoyable and safe weekend.

Ordination of Deacons service at Manchester Cathedral, Manchester. Picture by Paul Heyes, Sunday June 30, 2019.
I keep trying to get this better... constructive feedback more than welcome! I played in lightroom a bit with split toning trying to get better greens without turning the water green too...
I want to thank Gary Randall for all his encouragement and help, he is a master in the Mt. Hood forest and very inspiring!
These words from an old much faved version of this shot (Waters of Life, seen below) still apply today;
"For all of my life this little waterfall was a stopping place on camping trips along the Forest Road 23 above Trout Lake, Washington... Big Spring Creek, a sweet little place, surrounded by huckleberries and wildflowers... and I would always pour the icy snowmelt and spring water over my head and take a big drink of pure delicious water...
I have slept in my truck beside this falls listening to the music of the earth in all its glory weaving its songs throughout my dreams...
Running up the steep path alongside the fast flowing stream, through the tall trees, is a stimulant of life force like no other... panting for breath in the high altitude while my out of shape heart pounds... but oh so full of LIFE and joy!
THis day the fog was so magical... I had never seen it quite like this before! so mysterious... wonderful!! "

La Catedral de Morelia es un recinto religioso sede de la Arquidiócesis de Morelia de la Iglesia católica en México. Se encuentra ubicada como su nombre propiamente lo dice en la ciudad de Morelia, capital del estado de Michoacán, México. La catedral se localiza en el primer cuadro de la ciudad, conformando la traza del Centro Histórico de Morelia. El edificio fue construido en el siglo XVIII en la época de la Colonia Española, es de estilo barroco y esta realizado en cantera rosada que le da un color peculiar y característico.
# Arquitectónicamente la Catedral de Morelia comparándose con otras Catedrales de México, es similar a la Catedral Metropolitana de la Ciudad de México, Catedral de Puebla, e inclusive en su interior a la Catedral de Guadalajara.
# La catedral es la edificación más emblemática y representativa de Morelia dada su altura, ya que cuenta con dos altas torres, que se divisan por todo el valle de la ciudad. Por su altura, las torres de la Catedral de Morelia (66.8 m) son las cuartas más altas de México, después de las torres del Santuario Guadalupano (Catedral Inconclusa) en Zamora de Hidalgo (105 m), de la catedral de Villahermosa (80 m) y del Santuario de Guadalupe, en San Luis Potosí (68 m).
# Cuenta con una Iluminación escénica de singular belleza colocada por la empresa que iluminó la Torre Eiffel de París. Los fines de semana la catedral ofrece un espectáculo de luz y sonido con esta iluminación.
# La catedral está dedicada a la Transfiguración y en su interior alberga dos imágenes muy veneradas, Sagrado Corazón de Jesús que es el santo patrono de la ciudad, y el Señor de la Sacristía un Cristo muy antiguo realizado en pasta de caña de maíz. El cual es muy visitado y querido por la feligresía.
# Su belleza arquitectónica y su historia son otras razones por las cuales se ha convertido en un icono de la ciudad.
# En su interior este recinto dada su belleza, sonorización acústica y espaciosidad, figura como escenario de diversos eventos artísticos y culturales como el Festival Internacional de Órgano de Morelia, y el Festival Internacional de Música de Morelia.
La actual catedral de Morelia no ha sido la única catedral que ha tenido la ciudad, ya que en 1580, cuando los poderes civiles y eclesiásticos de Michoacán fueron trasladados de Pátzcuaro a Valladolid (anterior nombre de Morelia), se inauguró una catedral, muy inferior a la actual en tamaño y valor artístico. Esa construcción se ubicaba en la esquina de las actuales calles de Corregidora y Abasolo. Sin embargo, debido al crecimiento que experimentó la ciudad a finales del s. XVI e inicios del XVII, así como por causa de un incendio que en 1584 afectó severamente el anterior edificio catedralicio, se hizo necesario pensar en otro templo, más grande, sólido e importante. Por ello es que a inicios del s. XVII el cabildo catedralicio comenzó las gestiones para la construcción de la nueva catedral.
Muchos proyectos fueron propuestos, pero hasta mediados de ese siglo fue aceptado el proyecto del arquitecto italiano Vicenzo Barrochio, también conocido como Vicente Barroso de la Escayola por parte del Virrey Francisco Fernández de la Cueva, Duque de Alburquerque el 22 de marzo de 1660 concluyendo continuos trámites y proyectos de construcción durante un largo período de casi 80 años.
El día 6 de mayo de 1660 la primera piedra de la construcción fue colocada por el obispo Fray Marcos Ramírez del Prado. La construcción estuvo a cargo del propio Vicenzo Barrochio hasta el año de su muerte, acaecida en 1692, razón por la cual el gran arquitecto no pudo ver concluida su obra monumental. Sin embargo, solo 52 años después del deceso del maestro, sus discípulos lograron terminar la titánica tarea arquitectónica, por lo que la magnífica obra fue concluida en 1744.
La catedral sufrió diversos saqueos por parte del ejército independentista, en el año de 1810. Hacia fines del siglo XIX se construyó la reja perimetral que delimita el atrio. A finales de los años 90 del siglo XX se efectuaron diversas obras de restauración exteriores e interiores, con lo cual se preservó mejor la belleza del edificio. También, en los primeros años del siglo XXI, se inauguró la nueva iluminación escénica de esta catedral de Morelia.
The Cathedral of Morelia is a religious compound headquarters of the Archdiocese of Morelia of the Catholic Church in Mexico. It is located as the name itself says it in the city of Morelia, capital of Michoacan, Mexico. The cathedral is located on the first frame of the city, forming the trace of the Historic Center of Morelia. The building was built in the eighteenth century the Spanish colonial times, is in Baroque style and is made of pink quarry which gives it a distinctive and characteristic color.
# Architecturally, the Cathedral of Morelia compared against other Cathedrals in Mexico is similar to the Metropolitan Cathedral in Mexico City, Puebla Cathedral, and even inside the Cathedral of Guadalajara.
# The cathedral is the most emblematic and representative buildings of Morelia given their height, since it has two tall towers that can be seen throughout the valley of the city. For his height, the towers of the Catedral de Morelia (66.8 m) are the fourth highest in Mexico after the towers of the Sanctuary of Guadalupe (Cathedral Unfinished) in Zamora de Hidalgo (105 m) of the cathedral in Villahermosa (80 m) and the Sanctuary of Guadalupe, San Luis Potosi (68 m).
# Has a unique scenic beauty lighting placed by the company that lit the Eiffel Tower in Paris. On weekends, the cathedral offers a sound and light show with this lighting.
# The cathedral is dedicated to the Transfiguration and its interior houses two highly venerated image, Sacred Heart of Jesus who is the patron saint of the city, and the Lord of the Sacristy a Christ very old paste made of cornstalks. Which is much visited and loved by the congregation.
# Its beautiful architecture and history are other reasons why it has become an icon of the city.
# Inside this enclosure because of its beauty, sound and spacious sound, set for a variety of artistic and cultural events as the International Organ Festival in Morelia, and the International Music Festival of Morelia.
The current cathedral of Morelia was not the only cathedral in the city has had since 1580, when civil and ecclesiastical powers were transferred from Patzcuaro Michoacan to Valladolid (Morelia previous name), opened a cathedral, much lower the current size and artistic value. That building was located on the corner of the present streets of Corregidor and Abasolo. However, due to growth experienced by the city at the end of s. Sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, and because of a fire in 1584 severely affected the former cathedral building, it became necessary to think of another temple, larger, robust and important. That is why at the beginning of s. XVII the cathedral chapter began efforts to build the new cathedral.
Many projects were proposed, but until mid-century the project was accepted by the Italian architect Vincenzo Barrochio, also known as the Plaster Vicente Barroso by the Viceroy Francisco Fernandez de la Cueva, Duke of Albuquerque on March 22, 1660 concluding continuous procedures and construction projects over a long period of almost 80 years.
On May 6, 1660 the first stone of the building was laid by Bishop Fray Marcos Ramírez del Prado. The building itself was given by Vicenzo Barrochio until his death in 1692, why the great architect could not see completed his monumental work. However, only 52 years after the death of the teacher, his pupils got through the daunting task of architecture, so that the magnificent work was completed in 1744.
The cathedral suffered several raids by the army for independence, in the year 1810. By the end of the nineteenth century built the perimeter fence that marks the atrium. In the late 90s of the twentieth century restoration work carried out various internal and external, thereby better preserved the beauty of the building. Also, in the early twenty-first century, opened the new stage lighting of the cathedral of Morelia.

Something like
The chapel now known as the "St. Anthony", is situated in a plantaforma on Fisherman's Beach in the town of Ericeira, forming the epicenter of the progression of the urban village. It is said today that divides north from south
On the history of the chapel, little is known, especially prior to sec. XVII. Some records show her as coeval to the Parish (sec XV), no traces recorded material this time.
It was the chapel of the House, the first near the Palace of the County. It is known that in 1609, it was the headquarters of the brotherhood of Our Lady of Good Voyage of the Men of the Sea and it followed from their sessions .. In 1645, became the Chapel of Our Lady of Good Voyage.
He was also in this chapel that served the Brotherhood of St. Anthony, brotherhood of unmarried girls.
It is curious that this chapel is well patron saint double, both with the same degree of importance.
Chapel of modest proportions singia is not only to worship but also a "lighthouse" signaling the entry of boats in the harbor of Praia dos Pescadores, serving it to the small bell placed in a niche in the wall of the west ..
In 1645 it was lined with polychrome tiles, funded by the offer of a ring of great value, forming different patterns, among which, on the triumphal arch, still retained a small log of Our Lady of Good Voyage and Child, surrounded six winged heads of angels, with the monograms of Christ, Mary and Joseph and dated 1634.
The original image of Our Lady of Good Voyage of major proportions, upholstered wood and polychrome, restored in 1761, was vandalized and thrown overboard in the night of 22 to 23 January 1912. This image just left the hand that gave the coast the next day and is now preserved in the museum of Santa Casa da Misericordia of Ericeira.
The current building is from the XVII Century, the results of the previous expansion, and one of the works was recorded in front of the doors - 1664. In 1993, he was subject aobras conservção and restoration of the carving, painting and gilding of the reredos. The choir has a balcony, turned wood poles that are repeated in the pulpit side of the chapel.
There are six pictures in the chapel, Our Lady of Good Voyage, flanked by images of Sto. Antonio on the right side and S. Vicente on the left, both dating from the eighteenth century, of small proportions, wood upholstered with great perfection and graceful, another image of Sto. Antonio has the highest proportion of XX fri, and ship in pianhas embedded in the wall, images of S. Peter and St. Catherine of Alexandria, also of the eighteenth century, upholstered wood. In the sacristy there is a sec arcaz the seventeenth / eighteenth and an image of S. Francis of Assisi dating without some
Today is celebrated the third weekend, week of August the festivities in honor of Our Lady of Good Voyage patron saint of fishermen of Ericeira.

A capela hoje mais conhecida como de "Santo António", situa-se numa plantaforma sobre a Praia dos Pescadores na Vila da Ericeira, formando o epicentro da progressão urbana da vila. Diz-se ainda hoje que divide o Norte do Sul.
Sobre a história da capela pouco se sabe, sobretudo anteriormente ao sec. XVII. Alguns registos apontam-na como coeva à Paroquial (sec XIV ou XV), não registando vestigios materiais dessa época.
Foi capela da Câmara, próximo do primeiro Paço do Concelho. Sabe-se que em 1609, já era sede das confrarias de Nossa Senhora da Boa Viagem dos Homens do Mar e nela decorriam as suas sessões.. Em 1645, passou a ser a Capela de Nossa Senhora da Boa Viagem.
Era também nesta capela que funcionava a Confraria de Santo António, confraria das raparigas solteiras.
É curioso notar que esta capela tem assim duplo orago, ambos com o mesmo grau de importância.
Capela de modestas proporções nao se singia apenas ao culto, mas também a "farol" assinalando a entrada dos barcos no porto da Praia dos Pescadores, servindo-se para isso do pequeno sino colocado num nicho na parede do lado poente..
Em 1645 foi forrada a azulejos policromos,custeados pela oferta de um anel de grande valor, formando padrões diversos, dos quais se destaca, sobre o arco triunfal, ainda hoje conservado, um pequeno registo de Nossa Senhora da Boa Viagem com o Menino, rodeado de seis cabeças aladas de anjos, com os monogramas de Cristo, Maria e José e datados de 1634.
A primitiva imagem de Nossa Senhora da Boa Viagem de maiores proporções, em madeira estofada e policroma, restaurada em 1761, foi vandalizada e lançada ao mar na noite de 22 para 23 de Janeiro de 1912. Desta imagem apenas restou a mão que deu a costa no dia seguinte e que se conserva actualmente no museu da Sta Casa da Misericordia da Ericeira.
O actual edificio é do sec XVII, resulta da ampliação do anterior, e uma das obras ficou registada nas portas da frontaria - 1664. Em 1993, foi sujeita aobras de conservção e restauro da talha, pintura e douramento do retábulo. O coro alto possui um varandim de madeira de postes torneados que se repetem no pulpito lateral da capela.
Existem na capela seis imagens, a de Nossa Senhora da Boa Viagem, ladeada pelas imagens de Sto. António do lado direito e S. Vicente do lado esquerdo, ambas datadas do sec XVIII, de pequenas proporções , em madeira estofada com grande primor e graciosas, uma outra imagem de Sto. António de maiores proporções já do sex XX, e na nave em pianhas embutidas na parede, as imagens de S. Pedro e Sta. Catarina de Alexandria, também do sec XVIII, em madeira estofada. Na sacristia existe um arcaz do sec XVII/XVIII e uma imagem de S. Francisco de Assis sem datação certa
Actualmente celebra-se no terceiro fim-de-semana de Agosto as festas em honra de Nossa Senhora da Boa Viagem padroeira dos pescadores da Ericeira.

Ended up last night walking down the basement stairs in the dark with just a flashlight. My camera still set up from the night before, I heard her scampering away, I lit the candles and waited. It didn't take long for her to come back this time. I think shes getting used to me, she even peeked at me today instead of hiding!
A short stop by the road. I took the opportunity to photograph the grass!
Grass flowers have always appealed to me.
I remember that when I was a kid, fog grass gave me terrible hayfever. It made me itch all over and my eyes ran so much that I could hardly see. Yet, I thought the grass was so beautiful that I picked bunches of it to take home to my mother!!
Now I'm happy just to photograph it.
Going through my photos recently, someone was looking over my shoulder and when I came to the grass pictures, they said, well there's some you can delete. :-O
I am glad to find plenty of people on Flickr who recognise the beauty of grass.
Here are some of my favourite 'grass' pics. No doubt there are many more... feel free to post a link to your best grass shot(s) in the comments box! :-)

I grew up thinking of snow as a luxury you visit.
- John Landis
Finally a photo that I actually took this year, and one I were quite pleased with as well.
About this shot:
As usual we had a lot of snow in Norway this year, and a favourite weekend activity is going snow racing. As a result my body is usually aching and beat up afterwards, but the fun really weighs up for that. This is a shot of Ellen snow racing at high speed :-) A little tight shot but with lots of action nonetheless.
Processing:
I did a white balance correction and a slight hue shift in Lightroom to get the shot a little more blue and wintery. Also i despeckled in Photoshop, added a Pro Contrast-layer with Nik software and a Photo Pop-layer in Topaz Adjust. All with default settings. Finally I removed the dark vignette produced by my tele lens and sharpened in PS before saving as a JPG.

Here's another version of the PHP (for Prvi Hrvatski Pistolj - First Croatian Pistol), the MV-9, made in the early 1990's in Croatia. The MV's are often described as a love child of a Walther P38 and a Beretta 92, as it has features of both. The barrel locking system is the tilting wedge with a "push button" used by both the Beretta and the Walther. It has the Walther's exposed barrel and the Beretta's high capacity magazine. The MV-9 seen here is somewhat shorter than the MV-17, as the muzzle is almost flush with the front of the slide.
In spite of the fact that it's a first attempt and that there was a particularly nasty war going on at the time, the pistol is fairly well made. It has the checkerboard Croatian crest stamped on the top of the slide, just behind the exposed portion of the barrel.
This one shows some use as evidenced by dings, scratches and honest wear, compared to the MV17, which came to me in nearly pristine, unissued condition.
The MV pistols were made by the arsenal which later became HS Arms, manufacturer of the HS2000, sold in the U. S. as the Springfield Armory XD series.
I've found something that evoked childhood memories, 'stroop susu', or as they call it here 'bandung' ,sweet ice-cold rosewater syrup with milk (think soy milk, wonder if it was coconut milk in my youth).

La avefría europea (Vanellus vanellus) es una especie de ave Charadriiforme de la familia Charadriidae. Es un ave muy fácil de ver en España de octubre a marzo, durante los meses más fríos, de donde deriva su nombre común.
Características
Es de colores vivos: vientre blanco, pecho negro y parte superior de las alas de color verdiazul. Además tiene un característico penacho en lo alto de la cabeza. Al volar se distingue por su batir de alas lento, semejante al de una mariposa. Visto desde abajo cuando vuela se distinguen dos franjas de color blanco y negro. Mide de 28 a 31 cm. de pico a cola.
Comportamiento
Gregaria, suele criar en grupos, en tierras de labranza y campos extensos. Conocida en algunos lugares de Castilla y León como francesina. También se la conoce como "pibi" por el característico sonido que emite.

There's a saying old, says that love is blind
Still we're often told, seek and ye shall find
So I'm going to seek a certain lad I've had in mind
Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet
He's the big affair I cannot forget
Only man I ever think of with regret
I'd like to add his initial to my monogram
Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb
There's a somebody I'm longing to see
I hope that he turns out to be
Someone who'll watch over me
I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood
I know I could always be good
To one who'll watch over me
Although he may not be the man
Some girls think of as handsome
To my heart he carries the key
Won't you tell him please to put on some speed
Follow my lead
Oh how I need
Someone to watch over me
Someone to watch over me

Texto:
Cuidar e alimentar animais de rua é um direito nosso
Atuação retrógrada da vigilância sanitária em face da ausência de órgãos municipais especializados na tutela animal. O dever de cuidado dos animais comunitários e a proibição arbitrária de alimentá-los.”
No ano de 2011, significando um grande avanço para os gaúchos, entrou em vigor a Lei n. 11.1011, a qual criou a Secretaria Especial dos Direitos Animais (SEDA), com atuação no município de Porto Alegre.
Em pouco mais de um ano, os dados estatísticos já demonstravam o significado dessa vontade política de grande valia para o povo, que cada vez mais clamava pela atuação pública na tutela dos animais. Somando mais de 18 mil ações nesse período, a SEDA realizou, por meio de seus servidores, mais de 9.400 esterilizações, mais de 590 cirurgias outras, mais de 6.404 fiscalizações e 230 atendimentos, devido a denúncias, bem como cerca de 640 adoções, beneficiando animais resgatados, abandonados e até mesmo oriundos de colecionadores e protetores de animais.
Nesse panorama, verificam-se duas questões basilares. A primeira é o fato de que os dados vieram comprovar a premência que havia em Porto Alegre no sentido de ter um órgão realmente efetivo e especializado nesses cuidados. A segunda, abrange o tema que será brevemente abordado neste artigo, que diz quanto à inexistência, nas demais cidades rio-grandenses, de órgãos similares, demonstrando que a ausência de políticas públicas de proteção animal, tornam a atuação de outros órgãos públicos retrógradas e até mesmo arbitrárias, ferindo diretamente os direitos fundamentais dos cidadãos que protegem os animais, especialmente os comunitários.
A grande incidência de animais comunitários ganhou espaço frente ao crescimento das cidades, suas consequentes mudanças sociais, econômicas, jurídicas e ambientais e a desatualização, bem como a falta de especialização dos agentes públicos diante dessas alterações.
Muito embora existam legislações louváveis como o Estatuto do idoso2, a Lei dos Crimes Ambientais3 e a própria Constituição brasileira, cujas normas protegem os direitos fundamentais, como o direito à propriedade4, à liberdade e à igualdade5 , ainda assim entes municipais seguidamente têm atuado contra a proteção animal, ignorando a existências de tais normas, violando direitos e interesses individuais e difusos dos cidadãos brasileiros.
Assim, não é incomum, órgãos como a vigilância sanitária agirem arbitrariamente, sem qualquer observância das legislações municipais, estaduais e, mesmo, federais, mediante a notificação de cidadãos, que exercendo direito seu, alimentam animais comunitários ou que possuem mais de um animal em seu apartamento e são denunciados falsamente por vizinhos sobre falta de higiene e risco à saúde.
Isto não seria problema, se as notificações fossem emitidas com base em fatos que representassem efetivo risco à saúde pública e não de forma abusiva, com base em meras reclamações, despidas de qualquer veracidade, sem verificação do local, sem qualquer fundamento ou conhecimento de causa, em desacordo com as normas vigentes no país e, como se não bastasse, seguindo orientação desatualizada e arcaica, de “Códigos de Postura e Leis Orgânicas Municipais”, ainda vigentes em seu município, elaborados anteriormente à Constituição de 1988 ou, posteriormente, à margem desta.
Ademais, além de determinadas leis conterem dispositivos inconstitucionais no bojo de seu texto, ainda trazem palavras discriminatórias e desprovidas de lógica semântica, como por exemplo, utilizar a palavra ”vadio” ao tratar de animais comunitários ou abandonados. Isso demonstra a inadequação e a estagnação de determinadas legislações, uma vez que vadio significa “sem ocupação ou trabalho”; “sem destino certo”; e, “diz-se de quem pouco se empenha em alguma atividade (estudo, trabalho etc)”.6
A toda evidência não só há urgência na criação e na alteração de leis, mas também há premência na criação de órgãos similares à Secretaria Especial dos Direitos Animais nos demais municípios do Rio Grande do Sul, que atuem sem transgredir as legislações vigentes e sem atentar contra os direitos fundamentais; que contem com agentes especializados, conhecedores do assunto; e, que tenham como objetivo precípuo dar proteção aos animais abandonados e atuar preventivamente à proliferação indevida dos mesmos.
Na contemporaneidade, não se admite atos de crueldade praticados contra os animais, muito menos quando advindos da administração pública. A proibição de alimentar animais comunitários, vítimas do crescimento das cidades, da agressão, do abandono e do descaso de muitos indivíduos é um ato cruel, desumano e configura, dependendo da forma como for imposta, autêntico ato de abuso de poder.
Cumpre ressaltar o fato de que, a maioria dos casos que chegam aos advogados e às delegacias é geralmente de idosos que alimentam animais de sua comunidade ou de portadores de necessidades especiais que fazem disso uma causa e até mesmo uma razão para viver. Por vezes, idosos são violentados psicologicamente por condôminos que residem no mesmo prédio, os quais passam a praticar um legítimo bullying, progressivo contra essas pessoas, a par de serem pessoas com maior vulnerabilidade, ameaçando-as e perturbando-lhes a tranquilidade.
Diante da atuação arbitrária de órgãos municipais, mormente das Secretarias da Saúde e Vigilância Sanitária ou de qualquer outra entidade que, eventualmente, venha notificar cidadãos que abraçam a causa animal, sempre existe a possibilidade de buscar a solução desses conflitos na Justiça.
Cabe, porém, ressaltar que notificações arbitrárias podem ser refutadas mediante contranotificação, a qual dará respaldo ao contranotificante, em caso de persistência da autoridade municipal, seja na esfera administrativa, seja na judicial.
Como exemplo, destaco o caso de recente notificação da Secretaria da Saúde e Vigilância Sanitária, de um município litorâneo, dirigida a pessoas que alimentam animais comunitários, com o fito de proibi-los desse cuidado. Absurda, desumana e cruel mostra-se tal notificação que vai de encontro à Lei dos Animais Comunitários7, dentre outras leis, as quais não trazem esta proibição, pelo contrário, tratam de regular o assunto.
Maior a perplexidade, quando se compara a atuação dos servidores da SEDA, frente a casos semelhantes, cuja preocupação é cadastrar, microchipar e esterilizar animais comunitários, sem retirá-los do seio da comunidade.
A maior lição que se pode retirar do tema, é que não apenas os animais são prejudicados nesses casos, mas, sobretudo, os indivíduos que tem seus interesses, seus direitos fundamentais e sua dignidade8 violados, causando-lhes dor e dano psicológico e, muitas vezes, até físicos, por causar ou agravar doenças.
Portanto, a luta pelos direitos dos animais é uma verdadeira luta pelos direitos humanos, que continuará por muito tempo a ser travada pelos indivíduos contra as arbitrariedades de outros particulares e do Poder Público, até que se atinja o nível mínimo de informação, educação, conscientização e respeito, que hoje já são compreendidos apenas por alguns.

Macao
Guia Lighthouse
Guia Fortress, Lighthouse and Chapel: Built on the top of the highest hill in Macau peninsula (which has a walking trail with gymnastics infrastructures) is the Guia Fortress, erected in 1637 inside which is a lighthouse (1865), the first to be built in the China coast. Besides the lighthouse there is a Chapel dedicated to Our Lady of Guia, decorated with beautiful frescoes recently restored. From the fortress the visitor can visit the whole city and the Pearl River. It is an extremely calm spot ideal for photos, with a coffee shop selling soft drinks and coffee. Moreover it is here that the typhoon signals are hoisted in order to inform the population that the tropical storm is approaching.
The Guia Complex, which includes a historical military fort, chapel and lighthouse, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.The fort and chapel were constructed between 1622 and 1638. The lighthouse was constructed between 1864 and 1865, the first western style lighthouse in east Asia or on the China coast.
In October 2006, the Macau Government announced a gigantic construction project which includes a new home for Beijing’s Liaison Office. With such construction plan, Macau’s signature lighthouse will be hidden from large portions of the city, and, perhaps the harbour.
The project at the foot of Macau’s Guia Hill comprises a 135 metre tall tower, a 99.12 metre tower, with other tall buildings in a line spanning some 300 metres, while the Guia Hill is only 91 metres in height.
The height of Beijing’s Liaison Office (99.12 metres) is designed to commemorate December 1999, the year of Macau’s return to Chinese sovereignty. The building is already under construction and will be complete next December to commemorate the eighth anniversary of Macau’s handover.
The Association for the Protection of Macau’s Historical and Cultural Heritage warned the Macau government that if the high-rise buildings turned out to block the view of the Guia Lighthouse, it would upset the feelings of many residents.
Earlier in 2006, the Macau government uplifted two decrees that stipulated maximum construction heights in that area. The Land, Public Works and Transportation Office said the revocation stemmed from “the need to modernize the legislation, already 15 years old and completely outdated, out of touch with the gambling sector development and the increasing need for building sites”. Since 2006 summer, there have been a few heritage disputes in Macau. Activists have been fighting against a building plan that threatened to block the sea view from the A-Ma Temple, a World Heritage site honoring the goddess of seafarers and protesting against a government plan to demolish the Little Blue House - a historic mansion that isn’t on the World Heritage list.
According to the Macau Post Daily (January 10, 2007), heritage management expert, Mr. Imon, stressed that the UNESCO in Paris has a so-called World Heritage in Danger List that comprises properties deemed by the organization to be in peril because of adverse developments in their surroundings. In case of a world-heritage property’s inclusion in the danger list, the UNESCO may issue a warning in order to urge the respective country [China in the case of Macau] to stop the damage and to remedy the situation.

Comments welcomed. (I find this a bit blue... unsure as to how that happened, shade?)
The sun was just starting to set - staying there a bit longer may have been nicer, but I was already losing the trees below, hence the SHDR treatment. No mustard on this one, though upping saturation, contrast and blacks certainly does make it pop, it looked pretty cheesy afterward (still a landscape shot, cheesy by definition?)
So here's how I made it:
Following HDR tutorial from stuckincustoms. Hopefully it's not too noticeable.
Manfrotto tripod with stubborn 055 head. I've had it for thirteen years, and it still works, just complains under the new weight of the MeiKe MK-D300 + 8 AAs.
Nikon D300 + 50mm f1.8
No filters (the UV filter was dirty)
Mirror-up mode and remote release were used.
5 bracketed shots with manual focus and manual exposure, with speed bracketing.
Put together using Photomatrix and stuckincustoms settings, tweaked ever so slightly.
Re-imported the resulting 16bit TIFF to Adobe Lightroom after using the Photomatrix plugin, and cropped square (1:1).
Added +0.25 to the overall exposure (to make it look better on a white background that makes everything look dark).

Photoshopcreatie. Ik had maar ruimte voor 12 etages op deze foto. De plannen gaan uit van 50 meter en dat zou dus 16 of 17 etages kunnen worden.
Als de plannen van de gemeente doorgaan ziet mijn straatje er over een paar jaar ongeveer zo uit!!!
In een van die flatjes rechts op deze foto woon ik .
De linker woontoren heb ik er zelf ingeshopt, hij staat er dus (nog) niet.
Tussen het bushokje uiterst links en de straat recht voor u ligt een stukje groen dat door velen wordt gezien als braakliggend terrein. Dit stukje is echter een monument, aangeboden aan Piet Vink bij zijn afscheid uit de Haagse gemeentepolitiek. Dit monument heet daarom "De Terp van Vink". .
www.denhaag.nl/smartsite.html?id=57257
Bijna heel Beach Resort Kijkduin is inmiddels verkocht aan projectontwikkelaar Q Vastgoed Creatie. Zij presenteerden onlangs hun ingrijpende nieuwbouwplannen voor Kijkduin - zie deze website www.hetnieuwekijkduin.nl - en de uitdrukkelijke wens van de gemeente om in deze buurt meer woningen te bouwen is op dit monument een hoogteaccent (we mogen een flatgebouw van 50 meter geen hoogbouw noemen van Marnix Norder) gepland. In deze buurt moeten volgens de huidige plannen 800 tot 1000 nieuwe woningen komen. Wethouder Marnix Norder is een verre opvolger en partijgenoot van Piet Vink en wil dus op een monument ter ere van zijn verre voorganger een wolkenkrabber neerzetten.
De buurt protesteert natuurlijk op volle toeren, voornamelijk tegen die enorme hoogbouw. Bij het verschijnen van het plan, enkele maanden geleden, heeft het Algemeen Dagblad (vroeger gewoon de Haagse Courant) een informatiebijeenkomst in het Atlantic Hotel georganiseerd. Het hotel was te klein, politie en beveiliging moesten ingeschakeld worden. Marnix Norder kon uitleggen wat hij wilde, aan het eind van de avond stak niemand een hand omhoog toen de AD-presentator vroeg of er nu meer begrip voor de plannen van Norder was. De gemeenteraad heeft het struktuurplan (of zoiets) inmiddels wel aangenomen en binnen afzienbare tijd worden de plannen voorgelegd aan bewoners, gebruikers en belanghebbenden. Dit wekt de suggestie dat er nog inspraak mogelijk is.
Wij zijn er klaar voor.

Benefit for Jordan Renne Cilley and the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation International
"Thank you for coming to When You Believe. My name is Jordan Renne Cilley. I am ten years old and I have Juvenile Diabetes Type l. I was diagnosed on March 17, 2007, when I was only seven years old.
...You get diabetes when your pancreas stops making natural insulin in your body. The insulin injections help bring down my blood sugar. I have to poke my finger to check my blood sugar before every meal and snack... Then I have to give myself insulin injections... [adding up to] 6-8 injections a day... I also have to be careful that my blood sugar doesn't go too low, because I could end up in the hospital.
Sometimes I get upset and cry that I have to stop what I'm doing to check my blood, and take insulin injections. It' not fair that I have to let my team down and stop playing a volleyball game because I feel low and have to bring my blood sugars up. It makes me sad that I have juvenile diabetes.
With your help I want to raise money to find a cure for juvenile diabetes, to educate people about juvenile diabetes so that people are aware of who and why we have juvenile diabetes. Finding a cure for juvenile diabetes means not having to always poke our fingers to check our blood. It means that we will be able to live life without being afraid of our blood sugar getting too high or too low. It means that someday we would not have to take insulin injetions anymore."

I picked up the Lensbaby Fisheye Optic at Imaging USA this year. Initially I thought I would have pretty limited reasons to use it. I might pull it out for the occasional odd portrait or something but a true 180° fisheye is most often used in rap videos and at skate parks, neither of which do I often photography.
But, I am finding it a lot more useful than I originally imagined. Human vision is a funny thing. We are aware, via peripheral vision, of almost 180° of the world but we only have good focus on about 10° of out vision. Our eyes and brain see a lot but we only focus on a small sliver of that. As distorted and odd as these round images look, there is something familiar to them just because they do show the world as we see it… sort of. On a full-frame sensor camera, like the Canon 5D MKII, a 12mm fisheye like this Lensbaby optic produces a round image and much of the sensor never sees any light. The view is so wide that you have to be careful that you don’t get your feet, camera strap or elbow in the shot.
In spite of all the distortion that the lens gives, it provides a very deep depth of field even when focused very close and shot at f/4 like (the aperture I used on these shots).
There are a few drawbacks to the Lensbaby fisheye when you use it in their Composer rig. First, you have to be very careful that the image is centered properly or you end up with some of the elegant sphere getting cut off. It is also manual focus and because everything looks so small through the viewfinder, you really have to shift to Live View and digitally zoom in to focus properly. This is not a big deal if you have a little time to compose your shot but tends to preclude and “on the fly shooting.”
Anyway, it’s a fun addition to the arsenal of obscure lenses that I seem to love and fawn over. It is also a good bit cheaper than the Canon EF 8-1fmm lens f/4 L USM (which will set you back $1,400 and only stops down to f/4 while the lens baby goes to f/2). I am sure that the Auto Focus of the Canon would take a lot of the leg-work out of using an extreme fisheye and that the optics are cleaner, but I have heard reports that the clarity, when stopped down and used properly are not worth the price difference.
But, enough camera geek talk. I hope you enjoy this somewhat unusual view of Louisiana and Mississippi during the winter that I photographed yesterday on my ride back from Lake Bruin. I’m looking forward to putting this lens to more remunerative use on my next portrait assignment. All in all, highly recommended.

Lo sexy se lleva y pocas son las famosas que se resisten a mostrar todo lo que pueden en cuanto pueden. Los vestidos pueden ser de todo tipo, pero sus mejores atributos deben quedar a la vista: los photocalls se han convertido en un baile de escotes vertiginosos, piernas y culos. Vende la foto de la que más muestre. Y la fiesta de Fashion Rocks en Nueva York es una muestra más de ello.
Lo de Jennifer López es un clásico: un vestido negro de Atelier Versace con el que mostrar la pierna y un escote hasta el ombligo. Está estupenda a sus cuarenta y tantos, pero no hace falta demostrarlo todo el rato.
Bella Thorne apuesta por la pose Pataky para destacar su trasero bien ceñido. El vestido verde satén con escote corazón es precioso y ese es el color que mejor queda a las pelirrojas, para mi gusto.
Desde luego, no sorprende Nicki Minaj con un vestido negro cortísimo con escote que deja poco a la imaginación. Cuando se provoca todo el rato al final dejas de sorprender.
Rita Ora es otra que si no lo enseña todo parece que no existe. Esta vez son las transparencias de su Stéphane Rolland Couture las que dejan las piernas al descubierto, aunque por lo demás el vestido es bastante tapadito para lo que suele llevar. Otra más que se apunta al negro.
Y terminamos el repaso a las famosas que asistieron a la gala Fashion Rocks con La diosa Naomi Campbell, que se decidió por un discreto vestido con hombro asimétrico en blanco y plata.

Switzerland - Basler Herbstmesse / Basler autumn fair between 24 October 2009 to 8 November 2009 - riding a carrousel part II ..
Marble statue of a naked Aphrodite crouching at her bath.
In the fourth century BC the sculptor Praxiteles created a life-size naked statue of Aphrodite (Venus). It was placed in a shrine in her temple at Knidos in south-western Turkey. It was an important innovation in classical sculpture, and subsequent Hellenistic sculptors created several new types of nude Aphrodite figures, that further emphasized the sexual nature of her cult. This trend perhaps reflected both the rising social status of women and changes in male attitudes towards women: previously only male statues had been naked.
Most of these statues show Aphrodite ineffectually attempting to cover her nakedness with her hands. The action in fact only succeeds in drawing the viewer's eye towards the sexual areas. In this statue the voluptuous Aphrodite crouches down and turns her head sharply to her right, as if surprised by her audience.
The three-dimensionality of the statue is typical of Hellenistic sculpture, as is the hairstyle with its elaborate top-knot. Another figure of Aphrodite in The British Museum (Sc. 1578) could almost be the same figure standing up. Other versions of the crouching Aphrodite are known: some have an additional figure of Eros, the god of love, while others show the goddess kneeling on a water jar to indicate that she is bathing.
This statue is sometimes known as 'Lely's Venus' since it once belonged to the baroque portrait painter Sir Peter Lely (1618-80). It was subsequently acquired by King Charles I (reigned 1625-49).

This apple was sooo juicy mmm.none of these pictures were edited. latley i haven't edited any of my pictures i just uploaded them,resize them and post them here. i think only some of my pictures are edited, and when i say edited i mean different coloring because the lighting might be off, or the picture could be to dark or what not. Overall my pictures are all natural. that's how i like them. i miss jonel's family so much. That may sound funny but i do. I feel apart of his family ever since kentucky and we all got beyond close. More then when i was in fl. I just love them so much. They are all so loving and silly and down to earth as well as laid back. I just ahh love them. I can't wait until the summer i'm going to spend a week with jonel and his family. I've been feeling so tranquil today, not that i'm not calm but today has just been extra great and stuff. i haven't done yoga yet either haha. but i will soon i wanted to try doing it at night since i haven't in forever. but yeah done talking.p.s my brother loved the cookies so much he had 4 on the spot hehe my dad had 4 as well. i only had 2. i want to bring some to the ruhi book 7 group. hope there is some left tonight hehe. up was so amazing. i love it, it was so incredible, so real, so cute, so funny, so perfect. pixar did it again. off to do yoga before i eat
p.s.s jonel called me while i was doing yoga and we got to talk for 50ish mintues. it was incredible talking to him. Talking to him made me feel unempty. i finally don't feel empty anymore. Hearing that laugh, his crazyness, everything. I was filled with so much joy.
everyone liked my cookies..they gobbled them up.
hope everyone is having a great tuesday. two more days until thanksgiving:D

Papua New Guinea is one of the most diverse countries on Earth, with over 850 indigenous languages and at least as many traditional societies, out of a population of just under 7 million. It is also one of the most rural, with only 18% of its people living in urban centres. The country is one of the world's least explored, culturally and geographically, and many undiscovered species of plants and animals are thought to exist in the interior of Papua New Guinea.
The capital is Port Moresby.
