Lukas, you squirmed your way into my life when I wasn't wanting or looking for anything serious. I even kept you on "seen" a few times. But then we did start constantly talking/messaging and my world has been turned upside down since, in the best way possible. I am a mess of a person, but I also know my worth. You treat me the way I deserve to be treated, and do so without me having to hint at or tell you how to do so. You love me for me, flaws and all. You get along with my group of weirdos and they adore you just as much as I do. The little bit I've spoken to those close to you, they seem to like me as well and I them. Our relationship has not been easy, normal, or slow; it's been difficult, crazy weird, and fast. But I wouldn't want it any other way, because it has led us here. Led to you getting down on one knee in front of the most important people to me, in the most beautiful scenery. Which led to the most serious and easiest marriage proposal in my virtual life ever. I say serious because we are together in real too, so when I said "yes" to you on sl its cause I can see myself marrying you in real one day. I can see myself doing all of these things on sl with you in real. Some of which we have since we have met in person and it was everything.
I always want more with you. You give me crap for always being tired, but I'm never tired of you and yes I can be just as cheesy as you 😜
Thank you for making me the happiest woman in the world and being the ridiculously amazing human that you are😘
I love you so much my soon to be hubby❤️💍
I was walking by Proposal Rock the other day and the sun shining through the cap of forest that sits atop the rock caught my eye. I stopped, but it was a step too far. So I backed up. But I was looking at the sun eye-level and my Hasselblad is waist-level. So a couple more minor adjustments in position had to be made. But I got it worked out.
Normally you can turn strong points of light into stars simply by stopping your aperture down. The smaller the aperture you use, the more defined the star. (The number of points your star has is totally dependent upon the number of blades in your aperture though). As long as you have a clean lens and/or filter, free of smudges or scratches or scuffs you ought to get a decent star flare. Except this doesn't work with the sun. Too much light. The sun becomes a big glob of blown highlight regardless of the aperture you use (unless you are using pinhole cameras). What you can do though is partially obscure the sun behind something, so that it is half covered by a tree trunk, a building, a person's head or so forth. Let your imagination be your guide here. If you cover up part of the sun AND use a small enough aperture, then you can get a nice star flare out of the sun too. Plus it doesn't hurt to use a film camera to take advantage of the dynamic range that film has for such tricky exposures. ;-)

I have finally decided to post these photos. I made them for a proposal for--well obviously for this set. Unfortunately, I was not aware that Star Trek is a restricted IP and that Lego would not allow the proposal to go public because of course, what would be the point?
There's no point in keeping the photos and description to myself though, especially with the work that went into them. Description below:
'Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the Lego starship Enterprise. Its continuing mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no minifigure has gone before.'
Thrown through a spatial anomaly to a universe of modular building bricks, the crew of Starfleet's famous flagship find themselves sitting on your desk! With around 1800 parts, this UCS scaled Enterprise-D from Star Trek: The Next Generation is lovingly detailed and mounts on an elegant display stand complete with dedication plaque. But the Enterprise-D is hardly the first ship to bear her name. Display the original Constitution class Enterprise from the 1960s TV classic alongside and at the same scale.
And of course, it isn't a Galaxy class starship without a separating saucer. With the secondary display stand--mounted with a Starfleet badge and the nanofigures of the main bridge crews of both the original series and The Next Generation--you can show off both the saucer and the stardrive sections at once! The nanofigures aren't just for display; act out some of your favorite scenes or make up your own story when you remove the saucer plates to access the main bridge.
Features:
-Prepare for saucer separation: When facing a highly dangerous threat, Captain Picard decides to split the saucer off into its own ship. With the secondary stand, you can mount the saucer and display it right alongside the stardrive section. Just swap the saucer for the battle bridge attachment and you suddenly have two ships!
-Control the action yourself: Remove the panel on the saucer section and access the main bridge. With the detailed nanofigures, the bridge crew is ready for anything. Place Data at Ops, Worf at Tactical, and Picard in his Captain's chair and 'Engage' at warp 6!
-Time for a temporal anomaly: Display the Constitution class Enterprise from the original series alongside its successor. Built to the same scale and detailed with a deflector array, impulse engines, and shuttle bay doors; you can command this highly swooshable starship on its five year mission of exploration and adventure.
-Assemble the senior staff: The nanofigures inlcude The Next Generation's Captain Picard, Commander Riker, Lt. Commander La Forge, Lt. Commander Data, Lieutenant Worf, Dr. Crusher, Counselor Troi, and the original series' Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock, Dr. "Bones" McCoy, Chief Engineer Scotty, Lieutenant Uhura, Lieutenant Sulu, and Ensign Chekov.
Built for play or display, these two starships are sure to be popular with all ages. Whether you are a young fan of great Lego sets, or a nostalgic collector of Star Trek memorabilia, please support this project and help us to bring the knowledge of the galaxy to everyone.

At The End of The World there is a young couple. There is a man on one knee, there is a proposal and there is a YES! Thank god!
Love, once imparted, takes on a life of its own resistant to annihilation.

Proposal for a logo for our LTC, the Lowlands Lego Model Train Club. It is based on the old Nederlandse Spoorwegen logo from 1946-1968, before the current logo was released. I adapted it to add two studs on top (we are a LEGO train club in the end) and a stylized version of the lego train wheel.

Congrats Cooper and Liz!
Today I did a proposal and engagement shoot for my friend Cooper and his now fiancee Liz. This was actually my first ever proposal shot, and I was very excited, my heart was pounding in my chest as I snuck in a few frames, trying to stay at a good distance with a 70-300mm lens.... I can't even imagine how Cooper felt. Liz's reaction was amazing, they are a incredible cute couple, and I had a really great time doing their engagement photos!
This shot was in Coopers 1979 MGB, and my favorite from their E-Session.

I would like to present my proposal featuring the new PINK MOON poses, specifically the Balconette set. This romantic set includes 4 poses designed for couples (2 males, 2 females) in kneeling, standing, and sitting positions.
My partner is using the PINK MOON "Look at Me" pose set to help make a decision, and I'm thrilled to receive a "YES"!

In Rome in 2017, I was busy taking photos of the Trevi Fountain, when I heard the crowd start cheering, & one of my travel companions brought my attention to this man proposing to his girlfriend. Because I was busy with photos, I only caught the very end but it was still a lovely experience.

Mahmood OD: Hamas Responds to US Ceasefire Proposal (Publ. 12 June 2024)
The details of the Hamas response for the proposal of the US for a ceasefire after the UN resolution passed calling for a ceasefire in Gaza have been published.
These include a couple of important details and a very significant update and demand from Hamas, and I'm going to be telling you all about it in this video.
Their comments on this ceasefire proposal came as follows:
On Day One of the First Phase, temporary ceasefire comes into effect and Israeli forces withdraw from populated areas.
On Day Three, Israeli forces begin to completely withdraw from the Rafah Crossing, the Philadelphi Corridor and the so-called Netzarim Corridor, which dissects the Gaza Strip from East to West in the Middle area.
By Day Seven Israel's withdrawal from the specified areas shall be COMPLETED.
By the end of the First Phase, on Day 42, Israeli forces shall completely withdraw from Gaza Strip, leaving NO soldiers within the Palestinian territory. They continued:
Regarding prisoner exchanges Hamas said it would release 33 Israeli captives, dead or alive, in the First Phase. The captives would be released in stages, with three people released three days apart.
If Israel doesn't commit to a complete withdrawal from Gaza by Day Seven, Hamas will halt the captives release.
Hamas rejects any Israeli conditions OR vetos on which Palestinian prisoners would be released in exchange for the Israeli captives - and they ended as follows:
The First Phase shall end with a DECLARATION of restoring sustainable calm, which MEANS a complete cessation of ALL military operations, AND Hamas also asked that Russia, China and Türkiye be added as guarantors.
The MAIN update here, the main demand, is the final one: Asking for Russia, China and Türkiye to be added as guarantors.
Why is Hamas asking for this, now? It's because they simply DO NOT trust the Biden Administration.
Blinken is seen more and more as a person who is NOT a mediator, but a part of the problem.
CLEARLY, Hamas is not getting the reassurance they want from the US; because BEFORE this was submitted, they asked that the US provides a COMPLETE and SOLID approval, that they will apply PRESSURE on Israel to COMMIT to the ceasefire and all of its details.
This is also a MOVE pushing for more involvement when it comes to Russia, China and Türkiye in the Palestinian and Israeli case, which is something very, very positive.
These countries have been secluded previously, primarily Russia after the quartet, after Hamas won the elections in 2006.
Slowly they started to be pushed further away by the United States and the United Kingdom, primarily.
Hamas, by requesting this - CLEARLY, there was a coordination between them and the countries mentioned - and they're looking for more involvement because they're simply not getting the assurances that they want from the United States Administration, who are seen now as part of the problem and not a side that can be built upon when it comes to the actual ceasefire.
We've had a response from Blinken himself and from Israel.
Blinken said they could have accepted it, but we can WORK on their amendments.
The Israeli delegation had a certain statement and Benjamin Netanyahu had a different statement.
The delegation that's negotiating said: These are things that can be WORKED with - The negotiating delegation.
Now, this negotiating delegation - they previously accepted ceasefires that Benjamin Netanyahu did NOT accept, by the way.
So they clearly have more leniency.
Benjamin Netanyahu said: «Hamas are rejecting the proposal.»
The question is, how will they [Israel] officially respond?
If Benjamin Netanyahu is going to have his way by saying «No, we're not going to go ahead with these proposals from Hamas»; he will continue the genocide, he will continue the war.
However, the fact that Blinken and the negotiating delegation from Israel said that these are things that can be WORKED upon is a signal that they can DEFINITELY reach some sort of a solution WITH involvement from Russia, from China and from Türkiye as well, CLEARLY signalling that we are looking for a new shape in the Middle East, in the geopolitical situation in the region.
Now, Blinken most likely referring to this demand of adding Russia, China and Türkiye; he said «Hamas cannot dictate the future of the of the region» - as IF Antony Blinken, coming from thousands of miles away, has any right whatsoever for the region.
And that statement on its own signals how much of a power position Hamas has and how well they've established themselves throughout this genocide: Surviving, Fighting, Continuing and Increasing their attacks on the Israeli forces in Gaza.
Low minus tide on holiday weekend brought many times our usual number of humans. Rare to have sand shifted so we could walk fully around the rock.
Treated Jessica to a dinner of deluxe Top Ramen and other ordinary things on New Years Eve (day), then we went downtown to watch the fireworks.
After watching the fireworks by the clock tower, we were walking back to my car, all the while, I was looking for the right spot to pop the question...I spotted this view, which shows two major Spokane landmarks and I knew this was the spot... I told her that this would be a great spot to watch the fireworks next year and I needed to take a picture to remember it.
--I set the camera up for a 20-second exposure on a gimpy little tripod which would force me to "take a knee"
--Made sure the exposure was right by taking a test shot
--Turned on long exposure noise reduction in order to give myself time to get back through the knee deep snow to the camera (not knee deep in picture because I was under a tree.
--Had Jessica press the shutter release button
--Wrote backwards in the air with an LED keychain for the light tagging.
--Rushed back to the camera, told her to check out the picture...(I was on a knee)
--As soon as she read the "graffiti," I pulled the ring out of my pocket and showed it to her.
She said yes.

Please do not post graphical comments (invites)
I would like you to take me out on a (non-romantic) date. Where we go is entirely up to you, but please tell me if I need to put shoes on before we go. I'm usually barefoot.
When we go is also pretty much up to you. I'm in the UK, so my clock is eight hours ahead of SLT/PDT - so please bear that in mind when making time suggestions. Times don't have to be exact, but obviously I need a rough idea so I can make sure I don't miss you! If you want to IM me out of the blue and see if I'm free, I'm totally cool with that too. Whatever works.
I'm not expecting you to entertain me for hours - I just thought this would be a good way of exploring SL, meeting new people and getting to know others better. If you let me take our picture there, I'd be very grateful (but you are under no obligation to allow that, at all).
So, show me what you've got up your sleeve? - pretty places, quirky places, silly places, whatever you like. Please IM me, or drop me a message on Flickr or Plurk or wherever - my username on pretty much every platform is Kitti Wytchwood.
