The antenna minus the rod makes a great tomato (idea from Littlehaulic). Wish I had some Purple 1x1's or a bunch of cherries for my Grape Vine. I need a bunch more parts so I can make a field of Tomatoes and Corn.
Medical Friendly Shelter Full Scale Exercise 2018
The City held a full-scale exercise of the Medically Friendly Shelter (MFS) designed to establish a learning environment for participants to exercise their MFS operational plans.
The exercise served as a practical walk through of planning, operational coordination, operational communication, logistics and supply chain management, public health, healthcare, and emergency medical services
The MFS is only activated for a Category 2 or greater hurricane or as directed by the City Manager. The MFS is for people who, during periods of evacuation or emergency, require sheltering assistance due to physical, mental or cognitive impairment, or a sensory disability that exceeds the basic level of care provided at a general population shelter, but does not require the level of care provided at a skilled medical facility. This includes help with administering medication, personal hygiene assistance with activities of daily living (washing, dressing and eating).

factors that helped to keep it steady enough for slow shutter speed:
- focal length
- leaning back
- positioning feet so the back foot can handle most of the weight
- keeping elbow as close to chest as possible
- luck is always your best friend :)
First use I got out of this camcorder was at a RAF bombing practice at the range at Spadeadam. It was cold, wet and windy and I wasnt used to the camcorder so the vid is very shakey
After our fun 80's themed practice, we had a 90's themed practice! Drills included "Beavis and Butthead", "Schwing!" and "Come on Ride the Train" (to name a few), while skaters dressed in their best 90's gear. We saw a lot of flannel that night, alongside Looney Tunes, neon patterns, and Britney Spears.
All photos in this album were taken during a sailing passage from Iceland to Scotland via the Faroe Islands arranged by Rubicon 3. Sailing took place on Bluejay a Clipper 60 race boat. The Captain was Patrick Van der Zijden and the First Mate was Alex Booth. Including myself there were eight crew members. You can learn more about Rubicon 3 and their sailing adventures at www.rubicon3.co.uk.
I am in an exhibition at Cal Poly’s University Art Gallery "Beyond the Surface: The Photograph as Object", an exhibition curated by Aline Smithson from January 9 - January 31, 2020.

As the practice of photography moves farther away from the tactile process of winding film through a camera and long meditative hours spent in the wet darkroom, the contemporary digital photographer is now experiencing an entirely different relationship to the image. With the proliferation of digital capture, with Photoshop replacing the darkroom, and instantaneous digital printing at the push of a button, photographs are now equally a product of the mind and technology, with the ability for limitless reproduction.
In response to this loss of the evidence of the artist’s hand, a number of artists are reconsidering the potential of an image with a move towards making rather than taking photographs. By using vintage and contemporary photographs as a starting point, artists are creating physically layered works of art that result in a handmade one-of-a-kind object, expanding the notion of what we consider photographic art. The exhibition Beyond the Surface features a variety of interventions and investigations that include collage, sewing, cutting, weaving and embroidery, all interrogating the material qualities of the physical photograph as an attempt to recover the magic of the photograph-as-object. As artist Maria Font describes, “My hands intervene with each work manually, and through this intimate, performatic ritual, the embodiment of the photograph becomes the common ground where the familiar and the foreign meet, as an individual attempt to blur the lines between the internal and external spaces of the body. The construction of these mental maps evokes diverse psychological states and emotions with meanings that are in constant flux, never fixed, just like our identities.”
Artists in the exhibition work in two ways, using imagery that they have created in camera or by using found or familial vernacular photos. The image is then punctured, deconstructed, or cut apart and reborn as a work of art, separate from the original image. Many of the artists explore themes of growing up, family, and memory; others use contemporary imagery to consider self or culture. Artist Liz Steketee states, “I use my life and family as material for my work. By doing this, I am able to explore the complexity that exists in the everyday and the richness found in the mundane. Through the use of montage, collage, and purposeful juxtaposition of photographs, it is my intention to examine the “truth” in life.” Artist Joe Rudko cuts and reorganizes found photographs to “break the illusion of the pristine image and suggest a variety of interpretations it can have. Working with analog methods in a digital era places these snapshots in dialogue with the present moment.”
Revisiting photographs with an Exacto knife or sewing needle provides a new way of examining, organizing, and interacting with more than just the image on the page. This reconsideration opens the door to limitless possibilities of creation, inspiring us to look more deeply at the potential of photographic imagination.

From my Flickr photostream. I am trying to get some focus back in my art. Too much fractured doodling, detail and froth.
