I have turned this image into B&W and worked on it to refine the texture. Then I toned it and worked on it some more, with the goal of getting a good print out it. The color version here has proven to be very difficult to print! I have yet to print the B&W version.
Anyone care to make comparisons between the color and B&W versions? Comparisons should be made by viewing both images On Black.
Pinned down again for adding the riblets after checking - and breaking, cleaning and reglueing - the join. The first attempt had a pronounced step, now fixed
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Red-shouldered Hawk, (Buteo lineatus), is a medium-sized hawk. Their breeding range is in eastern North America and along the coast of California and northern Mexico; also northeastern-central Mexico.
Males are 43 to 58 cm (17 to 23 in) long, weigh about 550 g (1.2 lbs) and have a wingspan of 96 cm (38 in). Females are slightly larger at 48 to 61 cm (19 to 24 in) in length, a weight of about 700 g (1.5 lbs) and a wingspan of about 105 cm (42 in). Adults have a brownish head, a reddish chest and have a pale belly with reddish bars. Their tail, which is quite long by Buteo standards, is marked with narrow white bars. The red "shoulder" is visible when the bird is perched. Their upper parts are dark with pale spots; they have long yellow legs. Western birds may appear more red; Florida birds are generally paler. The wings of adults are heavily barred on the upper side, less so on the underside. Juvenile Red-shouldered Hawks are most likely to be confused with juvenile Broad-winged Hawks, but can be distinguished by their long tail, crescent-like markings on the wings and their more flapping, Accipiter-like flight style.
Usually, while in forested areas, these birds wait on a perch and swoop down on prey. When in clearings, they sometimes fly low in order to surprise prey. Small mammals are typically the most important prey, with voles, mice and chipmunks locally favored. Other prey can include amphibians, reptiles (especially small snakes), small birds and large insects. During winters, they sometimes habituate to preying on more common birds, such as House Sparrows, Mourning Doves and European Starlings, at bird feeders.
Their breeding habitats are deciduous and mixed wooded areas, often near water. It is while establishing territories that the distinctive, screaming kee-aah call (usually repeated 3 to 4 times) of this bird are heard. The breeding pair build a stick nest in a major fork of a large tree. The clutch size is typically 3 to 4 eggs. The blotchy-marked eggs are typically 54.5 x 43 mm (2.1 x 1.7 in). The incubation period can range from 28 to 33 days. The hatchlings, 35 g (1.2 oz) at first, are brooded for up to 40 days. The young leave the nest at about six weeks of age, but remain dependent on the parents until they are 17 to 19 weeks old. Predators of eggs and birds of all ages include Great Horned Owls, Red-tailed Hawks, Peregrine Falcons, raccoons, martens, and fishers (adults are vulnerable to the mammals only while nesting). Interestingly, Red-shouldered Hawks sometimes collaborate and peaceably co-exist with American Crows (usually an enemy to all other birds because of their egg-hunting habits) in order to mob Great Horned Owls and Red-tailed Hawks.
These birds are permanent residents throughout most of their range; northern birds do migrate however, wintering mostly in central Mexico. The major modern threat to these birds is deforestation, which has eliminated these birds as breeders in some areas.
Brad went to lunch on Wednesday, and I was too tired to fix his dinner Wednesday night, so he had much the same as Tuesday's lunch but with no salad and twice the soup.
Thursday: Lamb riblets braised in a spicy red wine, onion, and garlic sauce with oregano and lemon thyme, served over jade and white rice with spicy garlic ginger bok choy flowers and roasted vegetables.
Imagine butternut soup with sage. (This clears out the last of the salty soups! More homemade from now on.)
Spinach salad with a rosemary bacon vinaigrette, tossed with bits of bacon, pineapple sage flowers, and rosemary flowers.
Apples and cinnamon.

Please View Large On Black to see the tiny ZONEPLATE of concentric rings (clear and opaque black) made with exposed photographic film. There is no OPEN HOLE here to let air and dust in!
This is an ordinary body cap (for a Nikon DSLR or SLR) with a 1/4 in. hole drilled through the center. On the back is a piece of film that has the actual zoneplate with it's distinctive pattern of clear and black opaque concentric rings, centered over the hole. The rings are different widths, narrow at the outer rings and wider towards the middle. My understanding is that when light passes over the edge of the opaque rings it bends. That's how an image can be focused with the "lens". NOTE: My explanation is not a very scientific one!

Pepper had an advanced stage of throat cancer that was growing very fast! Yesterday Janice and I took him to the vet, to be put down, before his throat became completely blocked by the cancer. He died peacefully without any pain.
Pepper was a talker and loved people. Everybody that ever met him, fell in love with him. He was twelve years old and my daughter Larkin's cat. It's sad, that at the end of his life he could hardly talk or eat
He was an important part of our family for twelve years! He was loved and he will be missed.

There's a story behind this shot. While I'm shooting a tree in my front yard my neighbor Candy stops in the middle of the street in her car screaming "Mike! Mike!" pointing to something in the general direction of this shot. I go up to the car window and she's saying "shoot that, shoot that!" and I say "where?", she says "get in" and starts driving backwards for the length of two houses and stops. I get out and she says "there!". I look down at these cattails bathed in the most beautiful last rays of the sun before it sets behind the rooftops. I snap away and in a minute or two the light is gone. Oh, and I forgot to say, Candy is a photographer too and loves good light and what it reveals.
It's RIBFEST chez moi tomorrow, and 9 of us will be competing for the title of best ribs. We have scorecards and prizes--including this guy, who we're calling Riblet.

I mean, I knew the broiler was down there but I didn't really *get* why I should use it. Tonight, I saw the light, or perhaps the charred, crackly delicious marinade. Heating from the top, not the bottom ... what a concept.
