Put the first bit of green on!

Lance Corporal Chris Paterson shows NHS medics how to put on Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) that they will wear in the British-built Ebola treatment centres in Sierre Leone.

 

The kit - including overalls, visors, gloves and more - must be put on in the right order to provide maximum protection, as well as removed in a special sequence to reduce risks of contamination.

 

Doctors, nurses and medics from across the UK's National Health Service are joining Britain's fight against Ebola in Sierra Leone. More than 30 NHS staff will make up the first group of volunteers to be deployed by the UK government.

 

The NHS volunteers have spent 9 days training at the Army Medical Services Training Centre at Strensall near York in preparation. The facility is a replica of a Sierra Leone Ebola treatment centre.

 

The group - which includes GPs, nurses, clinicians, psychiatrists and consultants in emergency medicine - will work on testing, diagnosing and treating people who have contracted the deadly virus.

 

They will work in British-built treatment centres across the country, which when full, will triple Sierra Leone’s bed capacity.

Put an instant film in a Yashica 124G body. Don't have time right now to do a lot of darkroom work but I don't want to give up film photography. Instax mini film is a good medium to experiment with. Basically you can shoot you instant film in any of the 120 camera body.

Can you remember the Lion for the original wizard of oz?

Put the Canon FD 28mm 3.5 SC "vintage" lens on a reverse macro ring on the Canon XTi for my 100x project of 100 images with a vintage (film lens) on a Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi.

 

I appreciate each and every visit, comment and fave here on my little corner of the world as seen through my lens.

It all began when I won a scholarship to the Universal Academy of Podiatry back in the late 50s. I kicked the idea around for awhile while wandering around Venice Beach and decided to join the U. S. Navy instead. And that has made all the difference. I wouldn't want all of my clients to be able to kick me around. Now, leading a life of art and rock and roll music while selling women's shoes part time at an upscale store on Rodeo Drive. That's when it is overcast and I opt not to go outside my condo and enjoy the sunshine. (This is all imaginary text to add humor.)

I put two typographical portraits together one of each of my grandsons. This one is of my oldest grandson.

I picked up the technique from Digital Photo Magazine.

The original was a colour photo of the two boys sitting together, sent to me by my daughter.

  

Sabry, Sabry, how many times do I have to tell you to be careful when you're sitting in a tight, short skirt and wearing stockings and garters; when you move, everything shows.

 

Now please put your stilettos back on and make sure you don't take them off all day.

Lochearnhead Games 2015

These images are really just for fun and will likely put a smile on the faces of people who know me! This is the first camp we were at in Ruaha National Park, Tanzania and they had no running water. All the water had to be brought in from a borehole. So you can imagine what it took to supply water for this 6-tent camp. And they also did laundry, all by hand. So we had an outdoor bucket shower. OK, I wasn't sure about all this at the beginning but it soon became routine and a lot of fun.

 

Our days everywhere typically began with a wake-up at 5am. No time to shower but they brought a bucket of warm water for a quick wash. Bottled water was supplied to brush our teeth. They also brought coffee and a snack and then out on safari before sunrise. In Africa, the sun rose and set very quickly so that sweet light was very short-lived.

 

Lunch after we got back around 11, but depended on what we saw. Sometimes much later. Then free time until about 3:30. They filled the bucket with warm water any time we wanted to shower. You could start and stop the shower any time and there was more than enough water for 2 people. It was also a different experience to shower outside. Then out on safari again until dark. In the national park you had to be back at camp by 7pm.

 

So this was a wonderful experience of Africa the way it used to be, and still is for many people. Completely new for us as we are not campers! We saw very few other vehicles and often we were the only ones at a sighting. We heard stories of a lion in Kruger with 40 vehicles around it.

 

Another photo is in the comment box. The large tree over our tent is a Sausage Tree. And you really do not want to walk under because those "sausages" can be very heavy and you wouldn't want one to fall on your head. There are some larger ones in front of the tent. We had lots of wildlife walking by, attracted by a bowl of water which we made sure was filled. We explained why our water kept disappearing - the animals and birds needed water when it was so hot.

 

Many thanks for your visit and comments. They are very much appreciated.

When the ancient coffins fall apart the bones are collected together and the skulls are put where they can take in the view and observe people who come to pay their respects.

... You put your left leg out,

And you shake it all about.

You do the Hokey Cokey

And you turn yourself around,

That's what it's all about!

Happy Valentines to all my friends and contacts.

One of the problems of taking too long to put a set of photographs up on flickr is that it’s quite possible to forget the location where you took them. The pictures were taken on one of our many visits to other people’s gardens as our way of having a pleasant afternoon out, gaining inspiration from the talents of others, and giving our support for charity.

 

The pictures are a mixture of the plants and the general layout of the garden plus some of the people who were minding their own business and doing what we were doing, i.e. admiring the garden.

 

If you’ve looked at the pictures I hope you gain some enjoyment from them. Feel free to make comments, good, bad or indifferent!

This was a "Hail Mary" shot!

 

For the first time in 8 months of my project I forgot to reinsert my memory card before I left the house in the morning. During the work week, due to timing, I generally need to get a photo either on the way or coming home from work. So I had to quickly put this shot together when I had a few minutes after dinner. It did give me a chance to use my new video light!

I was looking for something warm to upload on this cold winter day and thought this photo of a newly-hatched baby sea turtle heading to the water might do the trick...

Nature put on a show the other day with big waves and a colourful sunrise. There was a lot happening in this little cove.

I am put on display at The Salon Monte Carlo! I am a shameless professional a sex object, for whom billionaire aristocrats are invited to make competitive cash offers. The prize for the highest bidder? To spend the night in my boudoir!

 

We used to play this game at Lyndon Towers, with my first husband as both pandar and auctioneer. The money that changed hands in those days was very considerable, but now – with the prestige of The Salon Monte Carlo, and Madame X wielding the auctioneer’s hammer – it has become quite mind-blowingly astronomical. These uber-rich males are not used to backing down!!

 

The winning bid turned out to be slightly over EUR 780,000. All that money, for just one night of unrestricted access to my body! And – let’s be clear – that works out at about five times higher than my regular – already ridiculously-high – hourly rates. In economics, there are such things exclusive commodities: the more the price goes up, the higher is demand. I think I have become an exclusive commodity!!

 

Madame X and I are wondering if we can raise my nightly fees even higher at the next sex auction, and start boasting about our “Million Dollar Nights” at The Salon!!

 

Toodle Pip!

 

Love and Kisses to All!

Happy November!

 

Here are five more photos from my archives, as I still haven't been anywhere since 19 October. Our weather has been nasty, with a few inches of snow about a week ago, and lots of overcast weather. Too cold for the snow to melt (including off my car!), so I have been hibernating for quite a few days. Just a brief, light snowfall in the afternoon of 28 October 2023, too. The last two or three days have been sunny, including today, 1 November 2023. Unfortunately, my car has been gatting the winter tires put on plus a couple of other things.

 

If I wrote a description under any previously-posted photos that were taken on the same outings as these 'new' photos posted today, I will add it under today's photos.

 

"This photo was taken on 21 July 2013, when I went with a few friends for a birding day trip in Bow Valley Provincial Park. Five of us had such a great day. It was a bird outing at Bow Valley Provincial Park, west of Calgary, at the foot of the very eastern edge of the Rocky Mountains. I knew that I would be looking for wildflowers, insects and so on, as well : ) When we got to the meeting place in the city, the leader pulled out a poster for the Parks Day event that also happened to be going on at the park at the same time. To my absolute delight, it mentioned a Bird of Prey exhibit!

 

After our first walk, which was the Flowing Waters trail, we returned to where everyone had parked and we had an hour in which to wander round the various exhibits. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw a row of owls of different sizes - a tiny Burrowing Owl, a Short-eared Owl, a Barn Owl (which we don't get in Alberta), a young Great Horned Owl with enormous eyes, a Turkey Vulture (seen in the photo above) and a Golden Eagle! They were tethered along the edge of the trees and needless to say, there were plenty of other people taking photos, but despite the mix of shade and harsh sunlight, I got the chance to click to my heart's content : ) Later found out that many of my photos really were not well taken, but I got at least one that came out OK for each species ... phew! Thanks so much to the people down at the Coaldale Bird of Prey Centre (near Lethbridge, down towards the Canada/US border) for bringing your gorgeous birds of prey for us to see! I have been south to the Centre three times I think, and always wish I could go back again, but it's not somewhere I can drive to, so this was such a treat!

 

I have seen a wild Turkey Vulture in Calgary on three occasions, flying high overhead. Each time, I was fortunately with birders who noticed it and pointed it out. I appreciate that the bird Ambassador in my image allowed me to see a Vulture close up and really see its details.

 

"The Turkey Vulture is a scavenger and feeds almost exclusively on carrion. It finds its food using its keen eyes and sense of smell, flying low enough to detect the gases produced by the beginnings of the process of decay in dead animals. In flight, it uses thermals to move through the air, flapping its wings infrequently. It roosts in large community groups. Lacking a syrinx—the vocal organ of birds—its only vocalizations are grunts or low hisses. It nests in caves, hollow trees, or thickets." From Wikipedia.

Yay - my power came on about 10 minutes ago! No idea how long it had been off, except that it was off when I woke up (about an hour ago). Power failures are so rare here, we can't complain at all."

I put for adoption this Lillith doll I customized two years ago. Her name is now Lily. She has been fully rerooted with two shades of brown Saran hair, and she has been fully repainted with high quality acrylics. She has also gotten rooted upper eyelashes and body enhancements, like moles and a French manicure and pedicure. I put a tiny signature on the back of her head and sealed all her paint with matte and gloss sealers. She comes nude with a signed certificate of authenticity by me.

 

The only Eden/Lillith doll I have sold so far went for over $400, but I asked for just half of that for this doll since I spotted some slight yellowing on her upper body. As you can see, it's impossible to spot in these photos, but I still basically sold just Lily's head and I'm giving the enhanced body for free. LILY HAS FOUND A NEW HOME! THANK YOU!

 

I'm currently studying and testing how to restore yellowing bodies, so I likely won't put another offer like this out there after this. ;-)

A young female Proboscis monkey (Nasalis larvatus) has found a good vine for swinging between the trees along the Sekonyer River, Tanjung Puting National Park, Kalimantan Province, Indonesia. The Proboscis monkeys are found only on Borneo Island and their existence is threatened due to logging and conversion of the land to palm oil production.

say that you love me

say that you love me

my first real attempt at bokeh.

This was such a different and fun look put together for me by Jodie Lynn at the Boudoir in London. I had never posed with hair styled “up” before - it was truly amazing to see the results! In addition, the dress and accessories were far outside my normal comfort zone - and it was so much fun to experience!

 

Jodie is such an amazing and inspiring person - I wish I could be around her more just to soak in the warmth, joy, and love she exudes! It was absolutely one of the most amazing experiences I’ve ever had.
