A gatekeeper butterfly resting with its wings open, taken several weeks back. Can't remember much about taking this one, except that it was at a time when there were loads of these orange/brown butterflies around, and a commando crawl was not needed to get the shot!

At a service station in Eureka, Missouri, just off the I44. While Ginger and the four kids (our three plus a friend) were making use of the facilities I decided to squeeze in a quick SP and a tiny bit of shut-eye.
The kids' train to Chicago had been delayed until after five pm, meaning that after we'd dropped them off and driven back the sixty odd miles, we'd arrive at the Berryman campground after dark.
Not only was it dark, but it was raining heavily too. The first real test of our rain gear, and a challenge for me to remember how to put the tent up 'fly first' a cunning method which keeps the tent and contents dry. The rain gear worked great, and I mostly got the tent up fine - I say mostly because I made the mistake of staking it out before I'd put up the tent proper.
For some reason I don't have any pictures of my putting up the tent in the dark and rain. Our first night camping this trip and it's throwing it down, not an auspicious start.

Our dear, sweet dog Shakira left us tonight. She was battling an aggressive cancer that had severly weakened her. We were so glad she was able to share one, last Christmas morning with us. We had the Vet come to the house and she was able to die quietly and peacefully surrounded by family and friends. We will miss her, she was one of a kind.

Asia,
Asia is one of the themed lands in Disney's Animal Kingdom
Asia is also the home of two of the park's major thrill rides.
The image I meant to upload lol!
Anyway it was a toss up between both images which I prefered but think this one just edges it with the head pose.
1 of 2 Peregrine chicks which have fledged from the nest this year.
Image created in Corel Painter IX.5 and Paint Shop Pro Photo X2...
I created everything in the image freehand in Painter except for the deer, bird and water...
The deer and bird were cloned in Painter from digital photos I've taken... The water is from a Vue render which was then fitted into the scene and painted over via Painter...
Color corrections, cropping and addition of my name were all done in Paint Shop Pro X2...
Happy New Year
