Beauty, what does it mean? Does it mean to be skinny, because I don't think so. Teens today put so much pressure on themselves to be a certain weight. We are all built differently and even if there is a tiny bit of flab we freak out and jump straight to the scale. I titles this "Scale Me" beause when you step on the scale you are being ranked and teens today face the fear of being ranked by their peers. One of the things they feel ranked on is weight. In my opinion, loving yourself is loving your whole self, not just whats on the inside but whats on the outside too. Friends of mine are always telling me how they need to loose weight and it's hard when I'm as skinny as I am to relate in any way. I see people from the inside out, I try to put personality before weight or any physical features. If everyone could learn to do that the world would be a better, more accepting place. The sticky notes behind me say words like envy, judge, skinny, jealous, weight, friends, just words that have to do with this problem. There is no set defination of beauty so work what you have and love what you don't.
Balkan Green Lizard - These are quite common on site and big enough(20-30cms) to make you jump if they rustle through the undergrowth. Our favourite was the one that would gingerly cross the path right in front of us every morning as we sat and drank our first cofee of the day. Be interesting to see if it's still there this summer.
Third fish which went back into the pond. Fishing is fun, but how about lunch? Could not keep these small fish
A 1:24 scale model issued by Danbury Mint. It was released in 2004.
The model is finished in Sunny Yellow & Jet Black.
This was a large, beautiful model with an onboard smoke system that was used to good effect. I think it's a clipped-wing T-Craft 15A, but I can't swear to that.
Notice the burned-out field in the background.

scaled quail, Pueblo West, CO, 2013 Sep 24. After a few hours of searching good habitat in rural Colorado without finding this species, we found a family group in town, including this one strolling across a driveway.

W. Butcher & Sons Carbine nº 3a Quarter Plate folding camera with Aldis Uno Anastigmat f/7.7 (to f/45) set in a Lukos II shutter (25, 50, 100, B, T).
The camera has a dual back that accepts either 122 format film or a plate back. Both camera body and back have matching serial numbers (B42082). A wooden take-up 122 film spool (Kodak) is included.
The unit seems to date to roughly around World War I. A unit shown in a 1914 catalogue, which list this shutter and lens combination for the quarter plate format has minor differences, in particular the finger holds for pulling out the front standard.
A neat touch is a small padded section on the front door that protects the lens when the camera is closed
The camera carries the model name (Carbine Nº 3a) embossed into the leather handle, but is badged with a metal tag reading "Carbine J.W.Small Australia" on one side and on the other carries the metal tag "T.A. Dickson Photographic Stores Geelong".
J.W. Small was a 'camera supply store' in business from about 1871 to the 1920s, with successors operating until after World War II. At the time this camera was distributed, J.W. Small had stores in Sydney and Melbourne.
T.A. Dickson was a chemist in Geelong who sold photographic supplies in quantities, but it would appear as a side-line to his pharmaceutical interests.
