Commercial Crew astronaut Eric Boe practices docking operations for Boeing's CST-100 Starliner using a part-task trainer designed to mimic the controls and behavior of the spacecraft. They are part of a suite of cloud-based and hands-on trainers that Boeing has built to prepare astronauts and mission controllers. The trainers will be shipped to NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston this year so astronauts can use them daily to practice numerous situations from normal operations to unlikely emergencies. The Starliner is one of two spacecraft in development in partnership with NASA's Commercial Crew Program that will enable astronauts to fly to the International Space Station on a new generation of spacecraft made in America and launching from Florida's Space Coast. Working at Boeing's St. Louis facility, Boe and astronaut Suni Williams ran through numerous mission phases to assess the simulators before they are shipped to NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston later this year.

The older juvenile doing some landing practice....below I have posted two shots of another practice session taken at quite a further distance....one of the juveniles decided that the other juvenile would be a good landing spot! It actually tried to land on the other's back twice and then gave up!
today I and my friend Marty were practicing lighting. (I am realizing more and more how important lighting is :)
we used 2 flashes to take these pictures, one flash was on the camera pointed up towards the ceiling to bounce off, the other flash was on a tripod with a soft box on. we are learning a lot which is very exciting.
camera setting was altered in manual for each shot, and power of both flashes were reduced.
Other then crop I have not changed anything as far as editing.
Trying to learn a new technic. Doesnt go very well. Need to use it as silhouettes in a sunset, I am about to do. Now I lost confidence. Stupid. Getting old :-/
and i’m all right, yeah, i think i’m fine.
my savior lives in telephones,
and i just dream of you and step outside;
dial up and hope that you’re home.
sooc, minus the crop and b&w.
These are photos taken on my trip to Europe and the UK with a girl friend in October to November 2012. My camera I had then wasn't good with low light so some of these shots are not great but I have put them as my memories of the trip.
We arrived in late morning in Bath by train from London. Spent one night there and most of the next day.
Bath is the largest city in the county of Somerset, England, known for and named after its Roman-built baths.
Bath is in the valley of the River Avon, 97 miles west of London and 11 miles southeast of Bristol. The city became a World Heritage site in 1987.

So here I am, I know, I've been gone for what seems like a long time. That's mostly because, well, I have been. School started up again after three weeks of none and while that's nice, I'm still trying to figure out what classes I'm taking for my last year of school. My life is insane and there is so much changing around and with me.
Life is a roller coaster and an adventure, while it sucks at times, its actually lots of fun if you just look at it. A lot of times people practice conversations, don't say "No we don't!" 'cause everyone had done it at least once!
Well practice can make perfect, but not always. We can practice conversations over and over again and it still won't go that way. It's weird how that works, how we feel that if we practice our conversations in our heads or out loud with ourselves we will know exactly what to say, when to say it, and how to say it. It never works out that way.
Instead God throws us a curve ball and we have to think on our feet. We can still use some of those things that we have thought of, but probably not the same way we did before. It's good for us though, we learn to count on Him to have us say the right thing and protect what comes out of our mouths. We count on Him to hold us together as if we are about to fall to a million pieces.
So I took this picture and I had a million things going through my mind, and one of my first thoughts was a bathroom shot, but not the typical one where you can see the person in the mirror, instead I wanted the hands and the body. I have tough hands that show my veins a lot. It's a different view on a "normal" shot.
I like to take what can be a common picture and show it in a different view because you can take the same picture a million times, but in different angles and the whole things will change. Just like in life, you can be stuck in a situation and if you just look at it ever so slightly different the whole things changes. Satan has this nasty way of playing tricks and telling us lies and we believe them, instead of talking to God about it or looking at things differently.
Something that I have forever struggled with is weight, I know I am healthy and that nothing is wrong with me. I'm not fat, not chubby, I have a lot of muscle, I don't need to be skinnier, but still, there are days where I can't stand it and everything I put on doesn't look good on me or I feel gross in and like I need to cover up. Then I remember that I am just perfect the way I am and that I do not need to loose weight so I shouldn't work out to loose weight, but to stay healthy and in shape. Don't let satan tell you lies, don't let him win, he doesn't own you and God makes you stronger then satans hold.

Rehearsals for the Ann Arbor Dance Classics 2022 Recital on Wednesday June 15th, 2022. Performances were held on Friday June 17th and Saturday June 18th at Saline High School (Saline, Michigan). There were two performances on each day. The students and teachers all wore face masks during rehearsals as a precaution against COVID-19, but were not wearing them for the performance.
A Ford GT40 and other 1960s sports cars during practice. Goodwood Revival race meeting, 11 September 2015.
My son practicing his guitar. Tri-X Processed with Rodinal (1:25) for 7 minutes. I like the contrast (it's a bit contrasty) and the grain isn't as bad as I thought it might be.
Superman practicing left-off so he does not embarrass himself in a crowd - it has to be perfect.
Actually this is a neighbor; he is a Fireman/EMT. He is doing his workout to warm up before he runs mega-miles.
