Goats love to scratch. I wonder whether they're naturally itchy, or scratching just feels good . . .

Crazy day today... and my brain is not working right so everything's taken 4 times as long as normal.
BTW sorry to all whom i've just favored and run. Flickr is being a bit of a bugger at the moment and doesn't seem to want to save half of the comments that i make... even more annoying is the fact that you only find out that it won't save your comment AFTER you've typed it all. so for those i've not commented on, i've favored instead but the thought was there!

Scratching
Scratching, sometimes referred to as scrubbing, is a DJ and turntablist technique used to produce distinctive percussive or rhythmic sounds and sound effects by moving a vinyl record back and forth on a turntable while optionally manipulating the crossfader on a DJ mixer.
Most scratches are produced by rotating a vinyl record on a direct drive turntable rapidly back and forth with the hand with the stylus ("needle") in the record's groove. This produces the distinctive sound that has come to be one of the most recognizable features of hip hop music.
While scratching is most commonly associated with hip hop music, where it emerged in the mid-1970s, it has been used in the 1990s and 2000s in some styles of rap rock, rap metal and nu metal. Within hip hop culture, scratching is one of the measures of a DJ's skills. DJs compete in scratching competitions. At scratching competitions, DJs can use only scratch-oriented gear (turntables, DJ mixer, digital vinyl systems or vinyl records only). In recorded hip hop songs, scratched "hooks" often use portions of other songs.
The basic equipment setup for scratching includes two turntables and a DJ mixer, which is a small mixer that has a crossfader and cue buttons to allow the DJ to cue up new music in his/her headphones without the audience hearing. When scratching, this crossfader is utilized in conjunction with the scratching hand that is manipulating the record platter. The hand manipulating the crossfader is used to cut in and out of the record's sound.
"I'm not a DJ, I don't know how to scratch and I don't know how to mix, but I do know how to party. One of my jobs is actually to travel the world and party."

This week's theme in the 7 days of shooting group is Onomatopoeia. Onomatopoeia is all about words that sound like their meaning - e.g. splash, bang, rustle.

One of LSL’s latest acquisitions, ex-EMT power cars 43058 & 43059 and a scratch set of ex-GWR Mk3’s forming a Carnforth-Rugby working, for driver-training or shakedown purposes perhaps?
As dozens of people were watching this big boy eat, he was having difficulty deciding between eating or scratching his itch...

Jip and Nala have become used to sharpening their nails on the couch, which is not the perfect place for that. We bought them a nice cardboard scratch toy, but they need some encouragement to use it. Jip is the first one to get the drift.
Another old shot from behind the scratched plexiglass...
I feel like I've been in a shooting/editing rut forever now. Hopefully a well-traveled MetroCard and some Sylvia's Soul Food will jump start my brain this weekend.

Ron and I have been talking about getting a scratching rabbit pose for the longest time. I have made multiple attempts but for some reason didn't like my previous attempts.
I decided to give it another try earlier today and came up with this rendition. I probably need to fine-tune a bit more but this will have to do for now.
