This photo is from back in Oregon that i just never really got around to posting until now.
I wish i had something to say about the photo really, it was a spur the moment shot in the woods near Brendon's house taken simply because i was feeling a little lost while surrounded by all of these amazing people shooting concepts and portraits. While i enjoy Flickr Gatherings, i find myself not shooting as much as i use to at them. I really find inspiration though more personal ideas and locations rather than places i've never been and people i've never met. Joel was just hanging out so i asked him to help me out and obviously he was up for it. :) Joel has always been there for me, and is one of the main reasons i started shooting concepts in the first place. In my eyes his creativity and ideas are so much more than photos to him, they are the fire which drives him in everything that he does and accomplishes. Joel is more family than friend to me, and it is a true honor to have him in my life.
I kinda rambled there, but i hope you all have a wonderful day :)
I'm posting these 2 shots of neighbor-cat Gracie Jo to commemorate this stately oak. Our neighbor discovered that this tree is hollow inside, and needs to be removed from his yard. It lived a nice, long life, however--we think about 100 years.
Had a short break from posting as was without a laptop. One taken from before my sojourn was 63073 SM13NBE, one of the only batch of 11 Streetlite Maxes taken by FWoE and based at Bath since then. Having been used on the X39 and then the Wiltshire routes, they now operate the city 4 service from Odd Down to Weston.

Posting these older pics is a double-edge sword. On the one hand, they remind me of how much enjoyment I got out of looking female. OTOH, I realize those times have passed--I can't look like that again.
But, I suppose what is all what women experience, and I choose to belong to them
I mulled over posting another one of these, worried that it was too silly. But, you know what, my Flickr feed doesn't need to be so curated. So, here we are. I hadn't done one of these collages for some time (this being the sixth!), but here were a number of rude-ish places I traveled to on my most recent trip up-North. In particular the trip from Liverpool over to Manchester.
I think I'm running out of these places now. A lot of the more amusing ones have no signs to photograph. If you found this mildly amusing, take a look at my 'Guffaw' album for more.

Posting a few random photos that I shot a few days ago at the Central Washington State Fair, Yakima, Washington.
Sorry about posting two today but I have been wanting to do this one for a while and last night I got a "yes" when I asked again....my own little SENIOR portrait!
I processed it using the trial copy of lightroom and then finished in PSE6. I seem to be getting a different tone when I upload as opposed to what is on PSE. I tried to fix it in picnik but still a little harsh. I am not sure why I am getting a different version on the upload? The one below did the same thing - is this a lightroom issue? It hasn't happened to me before when I was using only PSE...
Posting a couple photos taken in 2016 when my Dutch friend Michiel2005 did a cross-Canada trip.
These are part of a massive collection of trams and trains at the Halton County Radial Railway Museum near Guelph, Ontario.

Posting a few more from last month's Lapland trip... we had a blizzard while on the small island of Hornoya near Vardo in Arctic Norway. These birds didn't seem bothered! They kept the same pose of looking away from each other for the whole of the time I was watching them, 20 minutes or so, hence...
#30 'Far apart' for 122 pictures in 2022
I have gone a little overboard with the postings of lavender, but I love how the combination of water and light creates amazing bokeh.
Every shot is unique.
Listened to Owl City's - "Up All Night" while working on this shot.
I fell in love with a ghost
Oh, under the moonlight
You took my hand and held me close
For once I was alright
I cried and the tears fell from my eyes
Like a waterfall
And I swear I could feel you in my arms
But there was no one there at all
You were my clarity, I swear
Alone in a daydream
Yeah there was magic in the air
And you were right here beside me
Held down like an angel with no wings
I wanna fly again
I just can't get you off my mind
And now I'm gonna be up all night
Woah oh oh oh
Its tearing me up inside
I just can't get you off my mind
I tossed and turned in the end
With no one to talk to
I searched again and again
But I never found you
Posting a few photos from my Buffalo (Western New York state) trip back in 2017. Buffalo is about two hours from Toronto by car and a place where -- when the Canadian dollar is high relative to the U.S. dollar -- many Torontonians go to shop for things that are available in the U.S. but not in Canada. Despite that most Torontonians unfairly have very little respect for Buffalo. Well, you all know that I think very differently from most people. I think Buffalo has many hidden interesting things to see and do.
Albright-Knox Art Gallery
1285 Elmwood Ave, Buffalo, NY 14222
On November 4, 2019, the Albright-Knox's Elmwood Avenue campus closed for re-construction and on November 22, Albright-Knox leaders and elected officials broke ground on the AK360 project.
The new Buffalo AKG Art Museum is expected to re-open in 2022 on the Elmwood Avenue campus.
Everyone is posting their doll wish lists for 2013, I don't have one atm.
So, this is my resin family today and my feelings about each of them from top left:
1- Li : My first bjd, I bought her in 2010 cause I loved the sculpt. I changed her faceup recently (in October) , she is now a Calavera and still thinking if I should give her a normal face up or keep her like this. She never held in poses, I hot glued the joints but didn't work, she kicks me until I give up taking her pics! LOL
2- Kai : One of my favorites in my collection! He suits perfectly the character. I gave him tattoos and piercings in 2012 and couldn't love him more... well, one thing I would change IF I could: I wish he was an SD to join the other guys in pics! He is an odd slim 52cm size and will be forever alone until SoulDoll decides to release a Vito girl. I've been trying to match him with Li for 2 years, but doesn't works. He is a Keeper!
3- Apple : Always loved Shushus. When I bought her in 2010 I didnt know the difference between B-Line and A-Line minifee bodies and ended up getting the B-line...now I can't buy her magnet hands. Well its fine, she is lovely but its been ages I don't photograph her, not sure about her future, but I think still love her. ;)
4- Mae : Always loved this mold (Zaoll Luv) as girl or boy. She is so much fun to photograph and dress up. I made that colorful tattoo "sleeve" on her left arm and pierced (glued!) her ears! I love her wearing crazy mixes of colors, accessories and jewelry. I painted her nails with real nail polish and she has full body blushing. I'm never afraid to try new things with her.
She needs a good restring to tight her elastic.
Keeper!
5- Evangeline : I started to like her more when I gave her a new face up in 2012 and changed wig and took tons of pics of her but now I think its time for her to go and I'm planning to her up FA soon. I don't have a real character for her and I think she deserves more than to be forgotten on a shelf.
6- Nova : My first SD. Not photographing her much lately but I do lover my beautiful elf! Gave her new face up in 2012 and I think she looks more "human" now. Keeper!
7- Ethan : Well, what can I say? Ppl who visit my stream seem to love him! But I never bonded with him. He is on a "SuperHero" body and I so regret this choice I made. He never worked for ME, but I know he would wonderfully for others, cause he is truly handsome. I gave him a new face up and tattoo "sleeve" recently. A pitty to let him go cause he is Nova's boyfriend... oh decisions, decisions... I'll let this quiet for now.
8- Shael : I'm crazy about him! If I had to choose only one of my dolls, it would be him the one and only! ;D So, my favorite! Keeper forever - he will never leave the house - we'll get old together! ;D haha
9- Dusk : My Dollshe Saint is not that handsome type, but the has so much character! Long story short: Dusk was living in another body (Illusion Spirit Tosaca) that I have sold and reshelled into DollShe saint. The character that was using his body is now in my Soom Dia! hahaha I know its confusing! ;p Anyway, now Dusk is perfect now as I always imagined him. I need to stay in the "mood"to take him good pics, and sometimes it happens. Keeper!
10- Saranda : Gorgeous girl. Not too fond of SUPER curvy dolls thou, but it works for her. Sometimes its hard to find her clothes to fit her hips and boobs, but Shael seems to like her as she is, so its fine for me. ;) I love the pose-ability and face sculpt. Hope to photograph her more in 2013.
11- Feli : Bought her from a dear friend with two face plates Akubi and Ange but bought this Lusis face from the company and gave her a face up and body blushing. I love Unoa elder body. Maybe I will change her name at some point.
12- Dante : Always been a fan of Soom Dia sculpt and it was so hard to find him in a supergem male body! I bought him second hand and gave him a face up. I LOVE this doll so much!!!! Keeper!
13- Ara : newest addition to my resin family, she arrived a couple of weeks ago and I did her face up. She is lovely and my only child bjd. Still didnt have much time with her. I think she is not very posable and its hard to keep her stand...maybe the elastic is too tight? Well, we need time to bond!
14- Frodo * : Awwww he's so adorable isnt he? My first RealPuki I adopted from Elaine. Keeper!
15- Lulu * : She is Frodo's sweetheart! Keeper
16- Dodo * : my newest RealPuki... and I think she is the cutest of all! ;D Keeper.
* Curiosity: Frodo, Lulu and Dodo kind of represent my little real family, husband, me and daughter.
17- Lottie : I traded her for Ysbella with a Flickr friend and I really hope I will take many pics of her this year!
GONE in 2012: Elijah(SoulKid Maillo - still have his scar head FS), Ysbella (5StarDoll Quintus girl), and the first dollcarnation of Dusk (IllusionSpirit Tosaca). They all found lovely new owners! ( ´∀`)~♡
Thanks for your interest in reading!
( Sorry this HUGE description. I never do this cause I think most of ppl won't read )
Feel free to do the same as a "tag".
Posting a non-bird photo for once, but this rock tower was constructed by my neighbors' grandkids, and I couldn't help but photograph with perfect light overhead.

My fourth anniversary on flickr and this one is for my flickr friends. Thanks for your wonderful comments that never fail to encourage me.
Explore - want to think it is a special image but wonder if it is because I mention flickr in the title
Sunday is day 5 and the end of the art tour on Camano Island. I have met many wonderful people and super comments as well as sales of some of my images. It has been a tiring but wonderful experience.]
Just posting some older pictures that I never got around to posting. I love this little black dress with black panthose and heels.
Out of town for a few days so here is the weekend posting. Have a wonderful weekend. Hope you'll comment on what you like about this one.
Posting photos from our recent trip to Manchester made me go back and look at some from 6 years ago. Here's one of my favourites.
It feels good to be finally posting on Flickr after a long gap. I have been busy, unwell and lazy all at the same time and therefore haven't had the time to spend time here.
This is a long exposure shot from my last year's trip to Goa, here in India. A friend of mine did a great job of playing statue for me for about 10 seconds to get a near perfect image. You can still see the blur in the cigarette but I still like the overall look and feel of this image.
I hope to catchup with all your streams today. Have a wonderful week, everyone!

Posting for FILM26:
Film only Film. There are 26 two week periods in a year...and 26 letters in the alphabet. Every two weeks we will use the corresponding letter of the alphabet as our inspiration. Either take a photo of the letter itself or choose a word that begins with the letter as inspiration for your photo.
Posting a different Nature shot for 7 consecutive days via Taryn Waffles. This damselfly is just finishing a mosquito meal!
Shortly after posting this lovely picture last night Monkey was killed out on the road. Our neighbour found him just after. It was instant so he was not in pain. Our Monkey was only 4 years old and gave us so much pleasure and we will miss him dearly. I can't believe he is gone. But he was a monkey and aptly named, and we always knew that one day he would be taken by the road, although not quite so young. Love you Monkmeister.
Posting some old stuff, new adventures hopefully soon.
This is P16 road that crosses the Chott el Djerid salt lake in the west of Tunesia, not far from the border with Algeria.
On that road they have these souvenir stalls where you can buy... I actually don't know what kind of souvenirs you can get there. I just wanted to get this shot. My dad stayed in the airconditioned Fiat Palio. The heat out there was unbearable.
Posting these three shots of the Harvest-Super-Blood-Lunar Eclipse of 9/27/15 as a record of the best that we could do with our cloud cover tonight. Guess we have to try again in 18 years!
Amazing architecture and inside decor. I am posting now some picture of the interior. Tantalizing... really beautiful.
Notre Dame Cathedral of Ottawa is a masterpiece created entirely by our architects and sculptors. It belongs to a class of wooden and stone churches which bears witness to a fine building tradition, and it ranks among some of the inspired works whose great beauty comes as much from their magnificence as from the profound faith of the artisans who crafted them.
Today the spaciousness, majesty, and sacred character of the interior of this cathedral strike the visitor just as they did a hundred years ago. In the reigning dimness, one soon makes out the long, narrow, and high central nave, with its line of imposing Gothic arches running from the entrance all the way to the main altar. On each side, bundles of slender columns divide the nave from the aisles. Supported by these columns and covering the side aisles are terraced galleries that look out into the nave and help to define its vastness. Above these large arches runs a blind arcade, with three arches per span, which accentuates the rhythm of the nave. Over each segment stands a high window. In the sanctuary, the large arches progressively open up to a view of the windows set in behind them, the blind arcades display their theatrical decor and the high windows look like beams of light beneath the imposing sculpted flowerlet that terminates the lierne and unites the ribbing of the apse in a crown above the main altar.
The most surprising and fascinating aspect of this sanctuary is the richness of its Gothic ornamentation and the originality of its iconographic programme. It is in studying the decoration and especially the sculptures of the sanctuary that the spirit of Canon Bouillon's utmost creativity becomes evident. Strongly inspired by a long medieval tradition and influenced by the neo-Gothic movement, this iconography is at once complex yet coherent, traditional yet innovative, symbolic yet largely accessible. Although it has a traditional air, it bears the markings of its nineteenth century central-Canadian roots. The sanctuary of Notre Dame of Ottawa permits us to enter into the circle of a great assembly: patriarchs, prophets, apostles, and saints gathered around Christ, amidst the angels, in the glory of the heavenly Jerusalem. But surprisingly, in different niches of honour, we recognize Saint Joseph, patron saint of Canada, as well as Saint John the Baptist, and St. Patrick, patron saints of the Archdiocese of Ottawa.
The ornamental ensemble of the sanctuary conceived by Canon Bouillon was realized between 1876 and 1885 by a team of craftsmen, carpenters, and sculptors, the most familiar being Philippe Pariseau, Flavien Rochon, Olindo Gratton, and Philippe Hébert. Often the same men who laboured at the cathedral site also worked on the Parliament Buildings. Most of these men lived nearby and were either parishioners or fervent admirers of Bouillon, although some were total strangers to the city, such as Philippe Hébert, a Montreal artist whom Bouillon summoned in 1879. At that time this young sculptor had neither a job nor prospective employment and was planning to move to the United States. He later became famous throughout Canada for his monumental bronze sculptures, and the cathedral prides itself on having more than sixty of his wooden sculptures: his greatest sculptural ensemble.
The first series of stained-glass windows installed in the cathedral dates 1879. Made by the English glassworker Horwood, these windows consist of geometrical motifs painted in grisaille and embellished by light touches of vivid colours.
Most of them were replaced between 1956 and 1961 by a series of 17 historiated windows, continuing the tradition of teaching biblical events through pictures in glass. They are the work of Guido Nincheri of Montreal, and tell of the mysteries of Christ's life and that of the Virgin Mary.
Of particular prominence is the large window located just above the cathedral's main entrance. The tall figures painted in the centre of this window represent, from the left to right: St. Patrick, St. Paul, the Virgin Mary, St. Joseph, St. Peter, and St. John the Baptist.
At the entrance to the sanctuary, in the two lateral rows joining the nave's side aisles, have been erected secondary altars of sculpted wood, covered with gold leaf and decorated with precious stones; they are rather like the shutters of a giant triptych of azure and gold.
The altar located on the left side of the sanctuary was built in 1879 and dedicated to the Sacred Heart. On the right side of the sanctuary is the altar dedicated to the Blessed Virgin (pictured). Built in 1885 and dedicated to the Virgin Mary, it is the most splendid of this church's three altars, and Canon Bouillon's final realization in the cathedral. Really a masterpiece.
The Treasures of the Cathedral
The collection of sacred vessels, liturgical vestments, old silverware and antique oil paintings which are in the possession of the cathedral is precious and of great interest. Most of these artworks come from Europe, and are mainly of Italian origin.
A chasuble and a stole in cloth of gold, part of a superb enselble of rich liturgical vestments.
Golden chalice decorated with precious stones offered to Alexandre Vachon (sixth bishop of Ottawa), by his mother, on the occasion of his ordination to the priesthood, May 22, 1910.
Golden chalice decorated with six enamelled medallions, offered to Canon Georges Bouillon on the occasion of his golden jubilee, January 25, 1924.
Golden chalice richly decorated with precious stones and twelve enamelled medallions, offered in 1886 to the Diocese of Ottawa by les Dames de Ste Anne, very likely on the occasion of Archbishop Thomas Duhamel's installation as first archbishop of Ottawa, July 24, 1886. In addition, from the same collection, a golden ciborium of the same style, but wthout any inscription.
I am posting some sets of photos of Handy, Indiana tower at different angles. These views are looking west down the former LE&W (NKP). Nothing much has changed, but eventually, this building will fall down and be gone forever. These photos are from 1983 (left), 2003 (center) and 2013 (right). I have never seen photos of this tower manned, with a train (NYC, CR, NKP, N&W) going by it but I will at least write as much info below as I know. If you haven't been to Handy tower, I would catch it before it disintegrates.

I'm slightly late posting this as I have been painting for the last 3 hours. That followed pulling the old deck (pictured above along with three of my nieces, Sampson and of course, Autumn). Construction of the new deck took an unwanted twist when my brother cut himself with a knife, necessitating a trip to the hospital emergency room. My wife was already there for knee replacement surgery so they are getting lots of business from us. . On top of all of this I had travelled for work for a couple of nights, so needless to say I am swamped and unfortunately doing a post and run. My sincere apologies. I promise to get back to proper visits of your streams as soon as I can. Have a super week everyone.
And re-posting my favorite Mommy Quote:
"Motherhood brings as much joy as ever, but it still brings boredom, exhaustion, and sorrow too. Nothing else ever will make you as happy or as sad, as proud or as tired, for nothing is quite as hard as helping a person develop his own individuality especially while you struggle to keep your own." -- Marguerite Kelly and Elia Parsons
Haven't had much inspiration to take photos lately. The energy has been in organizing, cleaning, decluttering...getting the family routines together. The results are very encouraging and I am all happy-happy about it. There's nothing like having a household home having rhythm and rhyme. (and yes, clean helps, too.) Everything else pales in comparison. Yes, even one's flickr addiction. :p No, no, I haven't forgotten about flickr friends and family. Just a little hiatus from this hibernating mama...
And OH!OH!OH! Spring is here in Toronto! Yes, yes, yes!!! Maybe that will bring the photo-bug back a-bitin'!

Posting these early today as I want to get prints from some of them.
Many thanks for your friendship, comments, invites and good wishes. Also thank you to those who have made me their contact. Due to poor health, eye problems and low energy I regret I can't take on any new contacts but nearly always manage to reply to your comments.
One invite welcome-more, too many.

posting all my photos really fast now because to I want give myself a reason to photograph more rather than coward away. Currently listening to Rage over a lost penny by Beethoven after a chat with my sociology teacher about this kind of music, I love it!
Going on a photoshoot in 2 days with Ruth again, I feel abit bad because I'm kind of forcing it and so far haven't thought of any concepts, so after watching Brooke Shadens video about models, I feel a little guilty so am gonna start now, OH wait I do have one XD
did a photoshoot saturday night as everyone was out, we had a couple old mattresses outside, which I KNEW I had to use, regardless if they would work, It was pitch black and freezing outside, plus I had to lie on a wet mattress… Then I did another, with an exquisite feast for one! Cant wait to show you!
P.s, can you see the extra hand coming out?
