Borden and Dawson Counties, Texas Ranch
Location: The ranch is well located southwest of Gail, TX.
Acres:15,920.5 acres, more or less
Terrain: Much of the ranch has a rolling to hilly terrain, draining to the Colorado River and Gold Creek. There is some country located on top of the Caprock Escarpment. Native grasses are in excellent condition, and there is no sign of overgrazing. Cover is generally provided by mesquite and cedar, with areas of hackberry and willows along the river and the creek. There is very little salt cedar along the river and creek on the ranch.
Water: The ranch is very well watered by windmills, electric submersible wells and numerous ponds. The Colorado River heads just off the property, and several springs are located through the river channel. Additionally, Gold Creek heads on the western portion of the ranch and eventually feeds into the river.
Improvements: The ranch is improved by a ranch manager's home, several sets of livestock pens and a great network of ranch and oil field roads.
Access: Access is provided by a substantial amount of paved highway frontage.
Hunting/Recreation: This is an excellent area for wildlife. Whitetail deer, pronghorn antelope, aoudad sheep, turkey, bobwhite and blue quail and feral hogs are common.
Price: $495.00 per deeded acre
Remarks: This is a very good ranch with substantial live water. There is considerable oil production on much of the ranch, but the ranch has been priced to sell.
Primera foto después de varios días sin subir nada. No he tenido mucho tiempo para fotear.
Esta es la primera foto (no es muy buena) de una sesión en una disco abandonada en Iquique. Unos amigos y yo llegamos allá después de un partido de futbol el lunes en la noche. La primera vez no andaba con la cámara. Exploramos un poco y de verdad que era un lugar harto tenebroso para estar.
Decidimos volver el miércoles y obviamente me llevé la cámara. Estuvo entrete. De todos modos, es difícil sacar fotos sin que te molesten cuando tus amigos no están ni ahí con la fotografía. Igual fue un buen día. Ojala les guste la colección.
First photo after long days without uploading. Not much time for shooting.
This is the first photo (not good at all) from a session in an abandoned discotheque on Iquique. Me and some friends got there after a soccer game on last Monday’s night. On the first visit, I hadn’t brought my camera with me. We just explored and it was a really creepy place to be.
We decided to come back there on Wednesday and I obviously took my camera this time. It was fun. Anyway, it’s quite difficult to try to shoot without being disturbed by your friends when they aren’t interested on photography at all. It was a nice day, by the way. Hope you like this collection, guys.
So, I was at Montrose Beach yesterday, and as I always do, I walked from the dog beach to and through the preserve. And in the preserve was a professional photographer, pointing his camera towards some birds. And I took some pictures of some different birds, and then after awhile the pippins he was shooting. And then asked him about a bird, but not until they were all walking away. And he got on my case for talking, and then went off about me ruining it for people trying to make a living by donating my pictures to the Park District for signs and by taking pictures of the same birds he takes pictures of. And so I wished him a nice day and left, but not before saying, as I have to him before, that he cannot expect to take pictures in a Chicago park and have no one else ever be around. And that I will glady give pictures to worthy folk who ask. So then he sent me some rambling emails, which I deleted unread. After which I proceeded to post some pictures from the last few days. And thought I would do this SP. Taken at Loyola Park, one of my favorite parks. And holding my Park District volunteer hat, which I got from the Nature Center for doing turtle/tortoise presentations to the kids in the nature camp. (They want some pictures too.)
At Montrose where this guy got on my case, at the same time and right near us, there were paid contractors doing invasive plant control. Which is also done, although not with chemicals, by volunteers on a monthly basis. Yet the contractors have never told the volunteers they were ruining their livelihood by pulling weeds. I know at least one other bird photographer who mentioned getting a nasty email from this guy about the same topic. I know everyone needs to make a living, but I also know volunteer stuff is what makes the world work as well as it does.
Anyway, that is my mutter. I know at least one of my contacts lately talked about volunteering, as in hasn't lately and should get back into it, which made me want to write this.

I was hoping to shoot birds in the first morning sun.. well.. that was not to be. This little fella had to be shot in almost dark.. so I increased the exposure by over 2 to get it to lighten up a bit. Also, my ISO was set to 100 and in manual mode I used 1/200 for my shutter speed. It is a miracle I got this picture at all! =)
Software used: Lightroom 3 for basic exposure setting and RAW conversion to TIFF and in CS5 I used OnOne Phototools to get the bird bright and sharp without also making the background more sharp.
About the curious neck adornments, read about this bird on Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anna's_Hummingbird it is Anna's hummingbird and they have a ruby colored throat and some ruby also on the head on the side. Some people call them the "ruby throat-ed hummingbird" but Anna's is special because of the forked tail and that the tail is dark and has white edges. this hummingbird species is native to the West Coast of the US and particularly many are found in Southern California and specifically in my backyard. =) I grow many flowers and trees specifically for them--I don't feed them with the sugar feeder because it actually hurts them! So they get to pick among a variety of flowers and flowering trees in my yard.
This little fella (a juvenile male) is sitting on my still dormant apricot tree checking me out. I had babies all over the place this spring but I also have a cat who investigates everything I investigate... so I did not visit the hummingbird nests, hoping not to call attention to them. =)
Happy Monday everyone!

33º Tanabata Matsuri também conhecido como Festival das Estrelas.
A Lenda do Tanabata
Uma antiga lenda, criada há quatro mil anos e inspirada nas estrelas Vega e Altair, conta a estória de uma certa Princesa Orihime e seu amado Kengyu.
A Princesa Orihime era uma excelente tecelã e confeccionava a mais perfeita seda de que se tinha notícia. Preocupado com sua excessiva dedicação, o rei ordenou que ela se distraísse, dando passeios diários pelo reino. Em uma dessas ocasiões, Orihime conheceu o pastor Kengyu e os dois se apaixonaram.
Esquecendo-se completamente de suas obrigações, a princesa tecelã e o pastor dedicaram todo o tempo a esta paixão e por este motivo foram castigados, sendo transformados em estrelas e separados pela via láctea. Comovido com a tristeza do casal, o Senhor Celestial permite um único encontro anual entre os dois, num dia de julho.
Em agradecimento a dádiva recebida, o casal atende aos pedidos feitos em papéis coloridos (irogami) e pendurados em bambus (sassadake).
(Texto da Associação Miyagui Kenjinkai)
From www.encyclopediadubuque.org/index.php/XAVIER_HOSPITAL
XAVIER HOSPITAL. Former health-care provider on Windsor Avenue. Opened in 1949, Xavier had 132 beds and was operated by the FRANCISCIAN SISTERS OF THE HOLY FAMILY. The facility had Dubuque's first intensive-care unit and first recovery room and cared for Dubuque's POLIO victims in the months prior to the announcement of a vaccine. In 1974 the hospital was honored for its twenty-five year membership in the Catholic Hospital Association. (1)
Xavier's census often exceeded 100%. Patients were "doubled-up" in rooms. Beds were occasionally placed in corridors as the hospital cared for polio victims in 1953-54.
In 1957 the hospital installed a radio receiving station which operated on a closed circuit frequency and had the call letters: W-E-L-L. The station provided day-long programming of the hospital's choice with an option of six commercial stations for patients use. W-E-L-L's own program included relaxing music, regular prayers, Holy Mass, and announcements. Xavier was thought to be the second hospital in Iowa to install such a station with the other in Sioux City.(2)
The use of the hospital began to decline in 1965. This was clearly evident in 1979 when admissions dropped from 2,142 to 1,701 in the first six months. There were no layoffs, but hours were cut, and some vacant positions were not filled. In November 1981, the obstetrics department was the first to be closed. (3)
In 1970 the Dubuque County Medical Society purchased for $8,142.72 a multi-media instructional system of films, filmstrips and audiotapes for the continuing education of physicians and nurses working in coronary care units. Benefiting from the purchase were Finley Hospital, MERCY MEDICAL CENTER, and Xavier Hospital which would share the materials. Each hospital purchased its own projection equipment. (4)
In 1980 Dubuque was described by the Iowa Health Systems Agency as having thirty-two more hospital beds than necessary. The same year the SISTERS OF MERCY and the Sisters of St. Francis announced the merger of Xavier and Mercy Hospital. Xavier was to continue in operation with a combined management and no layoffs. (5) Occupancy at Xavier, however, continued to decline. In November 1981, the last baby was delivered at the hospital.
Xavier2.jpg
Sister Helen HUEWE was the CEO of Xavier in 1982 when it was closed one year after being purchased by MERCY MEDICAL CENTER. The nearly empty building cost Mercy $300,000 annually to maintain. (6) In 1983 the Iowa Health Facilities Council turned down a request by Mercy to convert the former hospital into apartments with limited nursing care for the elderly. In 1986 Mercy entered into an partnership with Arizona developer Alan Israel to renovate the building. Plans were made to convert the former hospital, at a cost of $8.5 million, into a retirement center complete with 163 apartments that would sell for between $30,000-$80,000, residential care floor, mini-mall, and performing arts center. By 1987 these plans had been dropped. (7)
The former hospital was saved from demolition in 1989. Windsor Park Retirement Center, the renovated hospital, was opened by Kennedy Construction Company which with the assistance of a City Council approved tax abatement arrangement. The grand opening was held on January 21 and 22, 1989. (8) The first administrator of the Center was Paul G. Gabrielson, the former administrator of BETHANY HOME for fifteen years.

Today was one of the hottest days this summer, the homeless in Ueno park were served cool orange iced drinks. This was part of my day hoping Second Day Harvest. I was in charge of Servering the Pasta and Bowls as well. I was so busy that I didnt take too many shots. i was very suprised to see so many homless from so many age groups. This shot was taken only after the Pasta ran out.
Nicholas Parenteau, a CUSO Cooperant carries harvested rice on the NEED-Burma model organic farm near Chiang Mai. This farm was set up by the NGO to teach organic farming principles to farmers from Burma, many of whom have lost traditional farming knowlege due to strong state control of crops, fertilizers and pesticides.
NEED-Burma is the Network for Environment and Economic Development, a not-for-profit, non-governmental organization that operates out of its head office in Chiang Mai, Thailand. NEED has been in operation since March of 2006. They are an inclusive network that is non-ethnic specific, with the mission: to work towards strengthening Burmese civil society so that all the people of Burma may benefit from the practice of endogenous and holistic development strategies, based on economically, environmentally, and socially sustainable ideas.
Chiang Mai, Thailand. November 2007.
Para verla en grande y con fondo negro
En 1355, atendiendo a la iniciativa del obispo Hugo de Fenollet, los jurados de la ciudad invitaron al pueblo a engalanar las calles y tomar parte en una procesión general, en la que el Santísimo Sacramento fuera acompañado por autoridades y clérigos de la ciudad. Valencia ofrece actualmente un sugerente retablo callejero de tradiciones populares conservadas con la veneración de quien mantiene los ritos tal y como fueron en sus orígenes.
También tiene lugar una invitación por medio del Capellà de les Roques a autoridades y vecinos de la ciudad para que asistieran a la procesión del Corpus Christi. Este acto tiene menos antigüedad que la procesión, data de 1516 y se denomina Cabalgata o Convite.
Antes de la vistosa procesión desfilan, acompañadas por la música de tabalets i dolçaines, las “Rocas”, carros triunfales donde se representaban misterios bíblicos. Estas representaciones son una especie de Autos Sacramentales denominados “Entremesos” o “Misteris” que se suponen escritos en el siglo XV y principios del XVI. Las Rocas se guardan celosamente el resto del año en el casa de las rocas siendo una nave altísima del siglo XV, muy próxima a las Torres de Serrano y que puede ser visitada.
I have been experimenting a fair bit with new photo processing techniques, and here is the fruit of another effort.
The Shot
For those of you who don't know me, this is me :o) My wife actually shot this photo. I was trying to hide from the photo and trying to look exasperated at the same time...
In Aperture, i created a version with +2ev exposure. This nicely brightened my palm, effectively erasing out my many prints...
The Photo
As i mentioned previously, i did a fair bit of experimenting with this photo. First of was the inclusion of a texture (you will have to strain to see it, but it is there...). I used the Speckles 1 texture provided by the very talented borealnz (thanks very much!). I merged the texture with some references from this website.
Beyond that, i completed the processing with some standard tuning (brightness, contrast, hues etc...)
You
As always, i would love your comments on this photo... please do let me know no matter whether you like it or not...!
Thanks!

GREVY'S ZEBRA
Predators and Threats
Habitat loss in an already restricted range is a serious threat to the endangered Grevy’s zebra. Additionally, it must compete with livestock for a limited water supply and is hunted by poachers for its striking hide. In the Samburu Heartland, AWF supports the Grevy’s Zebra Project. Its goal is to gain a better understanding of this animal’s population and distribution patterns to aid in the development of a viable conservation strategy.
Because the largest remaining population of Grevy's zebras is located within Samburu Heartland, AWF is taking action to research this endangered animal and help ensure its survival.

PS: к сожелению в русском языке moonbow не имеет отдельного перевода, а переводится так же как и rainbow, хотя в английском языке эти слова означают совершенно разные природные явления. Moonbow - это видима ночью радуга из-за разложения лунного света. (небольшой экскурс окончен, всем спасибо за внимание) :)

Diasporas en résistance. Le réseau Manouchian était constitué de 23 résistants communistes, dont 20 étrangers. Dirigés par un Arménien, Missak Manouchian, ces derniers faisaient partie des “Francs-tireurs et partisans - Main-d'œuvre immigrée”.
Sur les murs des grandes villes de France, la propagande allemande placarde “l'Affiche rouge”, exhibant les visages de dix hommes sur fond rouge sang, annonçant ainsi l'exécution de dix résistants parmi les vingt-trois qui allaient être condamnés à mort et fusillés, au mont Valérien le 21 février 1944. Ces hommes appartenaient au “groupe Manouchian”. Tous étaient membres des Francs-tireurs et de la M.O.I (Main-d'œuvre immigrée), destinés à rassembler les communistes étrangers vivant et militant en France et les travailleurs immigrés venus pourvoir au manque de main-d'œuvre française : Juifs nombreux en région parisienne, Italiens dans le Sud et l'Est, Espagnols dans le Sud-Ouest. Nombre d'entre eux, habités d'un sentiment antifasciste, rejoignirent l'armée française, d'autres la Résistance. L'affiche rouge, le magnifique poème d’Aragon que Léo Ferré mettra en musique, a été l'un des premiers grands hommages au groupe Manouchian. Quelques autres suivirent. Cependant, durant la guerre froide en France, leur histoire fut longtemps méconnue, voire volontairement tue, en raison d'intérêts politiques divers.
I am unwritten, can't read my mind, I'm undefined
I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand, ending unplanned
Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your innovations
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
Oh, oh, oh
I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are outside the lines
We've been conditioned to not make mistakes, but I can't live
that way
Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inner visions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inner visions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten
Oh, yeah, yeah
