the white-crested helmet shrike ( prionops plumatus ) is a little pirate.
these birds are cooperative hunters.they live in groups of 4/10 birds sometimes more and they
are used to hunt in team moving around the branches or on the ground..this aggressive behaviour makes scary the little
preys that can be easily catched

A dramatic looking cloud cover moved across Steveston Docks, making for a moody but bright presence.

Pirate Ship - An outcrop of Tufa affectionately names the Pirate Ship by the locals - Copyright 2015 Martyn Phillips, M4Photo.
Three visits to Mono Lake resulted in three very different images. The colours around the lake change all the time and I’d previously had a more purple looking image, a gorgeous blue image and today the light went a little flat with a patchy cloudy sky obscuring the sunshine.
I therefore opted to go for a longer exposure and to concentrate on one of the tufa rock formations out in the bay. Looking like a submarine, I loved the shapes in the outcrop of rock and the darkening clouds forming overhead.
It was interesting that, although I’d referred to the outcrop of rock as a submarine, right at the end of the shoot a local gentleman came up to me and referred to the rock as the Pirate Ship. After further discussion, it would seem that I was completely wrong and the outcrop has an official name and I therefore guess that I ought to name this image thus.
With the rain about to fall, this was one of the last images that I would capture at this truly amazing lake.

Omiš (pronounced [ɔ̌miːʃ], Latin and Italian: Almissa) is a town and port in the Dalmatia region of Croatia. The town is situated approximately 25 kilometres (16 miles) south-east of Croatia's second largest city, Split. Its location is where the Cetina River (to the right) meets the Adriatic Sea.
Omiš was well known in the past by the Corsairs (i.e. pirates) of Almissa. Omiš Pirates were extraordinary sailors and shipbuilders, famous for their Sagittas (the Arrow), a special type of ship constructed for fast attack and even faster retrieval into the safety of the mouth of the Cetina River. Due to its position and the bravery of its inhabitants, Omiš was practically impregnable to all invaders. Even the Turks, who conquered all of the south-eastern Europe, and were stopped at the gates of Vienna, didn't manage to defeat Omiš.
At the peak of their power, Omiš Pirates were one of the most powerful and fearsome pirates on the whole Mediterranean Sea. Omiš Pirates ruled the Adriatic Sea for more then three centuries until in the year of 1420 the whole of Dalmatia, except Omiš, fell under rule the of Venetian Republic, the most powerful naval force of those times. Surrounded by the enemy and left completely alone, the Pirates of Omiš managed to defend themselves for 24 years. In 1444, Omiš fell into the hands of Venetia and that year marks the end of piracy on Adriatic Sea.
From the end of the 15th century, when the city fell to the authority of Venetian Republic, its name was the Italian Almissa.
Today, Omiš is best known for the traditional festival of the Dalmatian a cappella singing groups. During the Omiš Summer Festival various concerts and recitals are performed at the city's plazas and in churches.
The pano was taken from the Mirabella Fortress above the town, built in 13th century.

I wish I was a pirate out there, under my own flag
Running for no reason and no reason to turn back
Salt and rum on my tongue, sails tattered and torn
Laughing in the devil's face, riding out a storm
Ooh, what are these days?
Gonna get off of these highways, wake up in some bay
With sunshine on my face
St. Christopher on a silver chain
Say a prayer, sail away

Every year Long Beach, Ca. has a Pirate Invasion. Music, food, crafts, events and of course Pirates. This was a snap of 2 enjoying themselves.
My son's new toy. I would like to take a photo of him playing with the ship but he refused. He plays games with me, when he wands to make a deal! :-)
For the group:
Another dream turned into reality .. looks wonderful . The things that your likely to encounter on the high seas .. just watch out if he runs up the Jolly Rodger .. stand by to be boarded and have the cutlass at the ready .

I'm currently on parental leave with our youngest son and playgrounds have turned to photo project. And Copenhagen has many exciting playgrounds.
On Århus Plads there is a pirate playground - quite popular for both my sons...

Taken at the 4th of July parade in Fremont. I've been wanting to go for a few years now, and finally made it this year. There's been a Gatka float the past 3 years, I believe, and they won 1st place in the competition in 2006 as well as 2007 - don't know about this year.
This is one of the Pirates of Emerson. They looked so wicked! I've been hearing about the haunted house for years, and hopefully I'll actually be able to go this year =D Especially since I now have a buy one get one free coupon from them =p They were just standing around before the parade started, and whenever someone would walk by them, they'd sort of yell and jump at them - they scared the heck out of quite a few ladies ^_^ Aman made me cross the street so we wouldn't have to go past them haha
Dedicated to my late night partners in crime from this morning - you know who you are!
Found this boat at a sailing school in Redwood City, California. For training pirates? Or training to fend off pirates?
The little lady had an older brother who thought she should walk the plank. Don't worry about them pillaging. Her father was close by watching their garden fire. Have a good week :)
Lloyd, the Green Ninja and revered leader of the Ninjago pirates, hungered for adventure and the chance to protect the innocent.
Tales of a fabled treasure hidden on a distant island had reached his ears, fueling his desire for excitement and riches. Undeterred by the dangers that awaited him, he set sail, determined to claim the elusive prize.
