Those of you who have been visiting my stream for the last two years are familiar with our annual January Buck Jump Competition. For those who are new, in a nut shell we can't afford horses so we go to great lengths to train our deer to jump our neighborhood fences on command. You get points for how high they jump, how fast they jump on command, and the judges also can add a few points on grace/artistic merit. During the second weekend in January we all get together and put our bucks and does through their paces and make a day of it with a big chili cook off at night. Lots of fun had by the whole neighborhood.
This year, my neighbor has started training his prize buck, Hoppy, early. He was supposed to win last year, but a young upstart went a few inches higher than Hoppy and we had an upset.
Some more snap shots and practice with the 135 f/2.0 before the big shoot on Sunday! Hopefully I'll have some stuff up from that shoot Sunday night. Hope everyone is having a good Friday!

As soon as the generals and the politicos
can predict the motions of your mind,
lose it. Leave it as a sign
to mark the false trail, the way
you didn't go.
Be like the fox
who makes more tracks than necessary,
some in the wrong direction.
Practice resurrection.
The quote above is an except from a wonderful poem by Wendell Berry entitled, "Manifesto:
The Mad Farmer Liberation Front". I highly recommend you read it, in particular out loud. It's a remarkable poem, both content-speaking and in terms of flow: the fast-slow cadence, the words that roll and tumble about in your head, and the all too serious humor contained within.
This was taken last Spring, and was one of the many cherry tree images that I have left to post. It was, of course, taken with the Hasselblad 500 C/M.

Mallard chick giving his wings a workout in preparation for the first flight. The beak seems to be growing faster than the wings. That's not surprising given that the beak does not stop the whole day.

As any self respecting Lenfel will tell you, one does not just become a master archer, rather it takes years of constant practice. Thus within Lenfald, a nation of master archers, scenes like this are extremely common. In the fields and forests, all over the nation, one can see archers, often of both sexes, practicing their skills just about anywhere.

"Practice makes perfect". When not deployed, Tier 1 operators from the Special Operations Group spend countless hours on the range to perfect their shooting.
A choir practice just before an event in Chester Cathedral. I wanted to get the contrast of the cool window and the warm tones of the tunics - and I think I achieved that. I wish I had taken my tripod though - this was handheld at 1000 ISO and, as a result, is noisy and a little soft but overall, I was pleased with it
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).
