I was pretending I didn't want Chris to take this photo, and we all know that's just not true. Not to mention there are like 50 more following this one. I even tap danced.
Yesterday, I woke up early hoping for some low fog. However, when I looked out the window and then confirmed with the webcams, I could see that the fog was too high to see anything.
Later in the afternoon, Nick Steinberg and I hiked up to Slacker Ridge in hopes that the fog would remain low enough to still see the bridge at sunset. We were rewarded with a nice show of fog and light.
As we waited for sunset, I decided to do a self portrait. It was by chance that I ended up catching some nice warm rays of light, but I like the effect it creates.
A few months back I said I would take a self portrait monthly. Well.... Turns out it's probably going to be more like bi-monthly, or possibly "whenever I feel like it" :)
This was taken at our dinner table at night, looking into our window and out to the yard and street. The images I took from this perspective turned out kind of ghostly, ethereal, and a little like I'm in the jungle or something. Fun!
Self-portrait - I came to this spot to take pictures of the Aurora at the post, left for the windmill, drove to the spot where I took the "Space" picture, then I ended up back here.
Really glad I did too because I was actually able to enjoy the Northern Lights for a change. I'm trying to teach myself to slow down when it comes to photography and for once I did. I just stood and watched as the Kp index jumped to 6 and the pillars danced across the night sky.
I'm teaching my Sunday school class from the book of Psalms in chapter 19. The Bible says, "The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard."
- I have heard their voice, and declare with the heavens the glory of God.

Self-anointing is a behaviour exhibited by all species of Hedgehog, but nobody really knows why they do it. I have never seen a wild Hedgehog self-anoint, but rearing this orphaned youngster has given me plenty of opportunities to witness it. They create a foamy saliva then undergo contortions to cover those hard-to-reach bits using their surprisingly long tongues. You can see the foamy saliva on that ridge near her tongue. My Hedgehog self-anoints when she tastes or smells something new, such as the first time she tasted cat-food, a worm, marjoram, and even after licking my son's feet. But sometimes she just does it for no apparent reason. The term self-anointing was coined by Maurice Burton, and was first used in a 1958 paper in New Scientist documenting the behaviour. But the behaviour was first recorded by German zoologist Ludwig Heck in 1912, when he called it selbstbespuchen, or ‘self-spitting’. Various theories have been put forward to exlain it (eg masking their smell, creating an extra irritant for would-be predators, deterring parasites) but for each idea there are examples that run counter to it. Anyway, there seem to be very few photographs on Flickr showing this behaviour, and it is something I wasn't previously aware of, so I thought I would share it. If you want to read more about the various theories attempting to explain the behaviour this is the best site: www.wildlifeonline.me.uk/animals/article/european-hedgeho...

"Ogni tanto... scendeva fino al lago e passava ore a guardarlo, giacché, disegnato sull’acqua, gli pareva di vedere l’inspiegabile spettacolo, lieve, che era stata la sua vita." - Alessandro Baricco.
Alba di qualche giorno fa... avevo le mani congelate ma gli occhi pieni di luce e di bellezza... e la paura di scivolare e scomparire in un istante in questo specchio di cielo e di me.
Buona giornata :)
True love from the heart is eternal. I take pride in being 100% real and bleed passion and knowledge it self. People come in and out of our lives, we can just hope when it's time to part we can live forever within each other. Good spirits travel and stick to true love of our connections.

Self-portrait done the old way. The camera is set to manual, the lens is anyway (Helios 44M-7 at F5.6), the distance between camera and object has been measured by tape, and the shutter release is by wire. Exposure is preset (based on experience) and WB could stay on auto as the light source is a daylight LED lamp. This old way of doing things does work! Can I also say that the camera is regarded to be "old" (16MP only and "a bit long in the tooth") and that the lens is three or so decades old. May I go even further and state that my up-to-date camera, much more powerful and more sophisticated, does not do better images than the old one?
