Taken today it was blowing an absolute hooley and keeping the camera and tripod steady was a challenge in itself
This is a 11 shot pano taken about 11AM
Thanks for looking :)
My protector who lives on my front porch got a little dusting of snow.
Just practicing with my SIGMA 105mm F2.8 EX DG MACRO OS lens.
I never normally do this but when I uploaded Protector yesterday and looked at it on the iPad later in the evening, I wasn't entirely happy as it showed issues that I didn't see on the iMac. However, it has received some love so instead of replacing it I have reprocessed the image and posting a version that I am more happy with so you can tell me what you think. I wait your comments, good and bad.
I don't know if this guy is really named George but he's a great sheep protector and lives with them. I've stopped a couple of times and he always barks and moves the sheep away. I think this pose says it all!!!
This shot that i take from behind the senes, from the movie "James Bond" that we are rolling.
I get cool part in this movie, Im the camera guy :) so how I will film, that how it will be...
DESIGNATION: Protector-018
NICKNAME: Galaar
RANK: ARC Lieutenant Grade 1
UNIT: Vornskr, First Regiment, "Bralor's First", 253rd Elite Clone Legion
"Galaar means hawk in Mando'a the native language of the Mandalorians, a name given to Protector Class ARC Trooper 018 for his abnormally keen vision and hunting instinct. In a sense, like the rest of his Protector brethren, Galaar was everything that the Kaminoans had designed him to be, an apex predator. It was during the initial combat simulations when Galaar first learned of his aptitude towards reconnaissance and tracking, a bi-product of a slight genetic mishap which heightened his senses. While not significant enough to warrant special assignment, Galaar's mutation peaked the interest of Mandalorian Huntress and Cuy'val Dar member, Vhonte Tervho. Tervho took Galaar under her wing and taught him the ways of the hunt, indoctrinating him further into the Mandalorian culture and molding him into an expert scout, tracker, and sapper. She would later give him the name "Galaar" after observing him during his 3rd phase combined arms trials, where 018 served as a point man for his platoon, acting as their eyes and ears on the battle field. It was here he exceled, often cut off from his unit, but still effective, relaying information and sabotaging the enemy at every opportunity, he was good at it that he was put up for promotion prior to the First Battle of Geonosis. Galaar was confident and rightfully so, Cabur and Vhonte Tervho has trained him well, he was part of what may be the most elite fighting force the Galaxy would ever see, so when word came that the Legion would be mobilized and sent to Geonosis to rescue a Jedi task force, Galaar didn't worry, the mission would be textbook, just like the simulations.
Unfortunately for the young ARC trooper he was wrong.
The First Battle of Geonosis, saw the integration of over a thousand regular clone troopers into the 253rd's ranks, separating the elite ARC troopers of Fenn Bralor's Raysh'olan Ade, and putting them in charge of brothers whom they never met nor trained with before. This decision by the commanders of the newly formed Grand Army of the Republic would prove to be disastrous for the 253rd and result in heavy casualties among both the ARCs and their trooper brethren. Galaar, was restricted during the battle, unable to play to his strengths, due to being forced to baby sit a platoon of troopers. Unlike is ARC brethren, Galaar could not just leave them and play the role of the scout as by doing so would jeopardize the entire squad and their mission. This put Galaar at a major disadvantage and it showed when Galaar's platoon took over fifty-percent casualties during their mission to destroy a small droid foundry in the planets southern hemisphere. Geonosis taught Galaar a harsh lesson, one he did not wish to repeat on the frozen waist land of Rhen Var. To remind himself of his responsibility as a leader to his men, Galaar would paint his armor with green markings, as the color green symbolizes "duty" in the Mandalorian culture. With his armor serving as a solemn reminder of the brothers lost on Geonosis and as promise to those who survived, Galaar began the work of transforming his squad of regular clone troopers into force which would make the Mandalorians back on Kamino proud...

Well that was long, please let me know if I started to ramble anywhere if you happen to read the whole thing.
After deciding that giving Vornskr cold assault armor Rhen Var would break the timeline I'm trying to follow and my goals of a more structured story, I've decided to retcon their initial appearance, by giving Galaar standard Phase 1 ARC armor, and the members of Vornskr Squad unpainted phase 1 armor.
I hope to post my 1.2 build tomorrow in celebration of May 4th and my 1.3 some time in the next week or two. After that it'll likely be time to build again for World in Darkness.
As always thanks for stopping by, especially if you've read this far and have a good one!

Just some random silly shot... quite the protectors of my lil warrioress...she had not much to worry about in the Swamps this day.
A friend who lives in a rural area has posted a not so subtle message for the deer that often show up on his property. "don't mess with my garden"
Mixed results so far.
Bella has always been a joy. She makes us laugh even in sad and stressful times and gives lots of sloppy kisses. She loves her toys and lives for company and walks. She has now taken on the role of protector. My husband is having trouble with strength and balance and has a problem walking. She listens for sounds when he is upstairs and alerts me if he calls for me or if he's having trouble. She has been truly amazing and we love her dearly.
She was very protective over her nest. If I got too close she'd bite at my camera. But I gave her some bread so she would ease up a bit. I had to go to work so I couldn't take anymore

The Protector
I'm currently in this long and confusing process of figuring out who I am and what I want to do in my life, but all I know is that protection does not come in a bottle. It is in me, in my actions, in my thoughts. I am the best medicine for myself. I am the cure and the disease...
