Happy Gorgeous Green Thursday !
I slipped in the bathroom yesterday and sprained my hand and foot. :-( Luckily it's nothing serious though I do have pain. I'm sorry I don't think I'll be able to comment on your pix today.
I hope you all have a great day! Hugs! :-))
so, i went bowling yesterday. i ended up bowling a 174 (five strikes, two spares....woooo-hooo!). i also ended up with a badly sprained ankle. boo.
“You will come to a place where the streets are not marked.
Some windows are lighted. but mostly they're darked.
But mostly they're darked.
A place you could sprain both your elbow and chin!
Do you dare to stay out? Do you dare to go in?
How much can you lose? How much can you win?
You're off to Great Places!
Today is your day!
Your mountain is waiting,
So... get on your way!”
-Dr. Suess
i almost didn't get this shot. jumping up and down on my window with a sprained wrist is not a good idea. also i had just bought this hat and i wanted it in the photo :D
The Canadian Rockies along the Bow River in beautiful Canmore, Alberta. Just a quick shot with my cell phone as I scouted the area for nice shooting spots....It was a great day until I sprained my ankle!
On Saturday/last night while playing basketball with some friends I went up for a rebound and my ankle got knocked sideways while I was in the air. I came down on it hard and really twisted it. Now it is very swollen, changing colors and I can't walk.
This just sucks. I hate feeling this helpless and am not sure what I am going to do about work tomorrow. I have crap to deal with and I shouldn't do it in this condition. If nothing else I definately shouldn't bowl.
I don't like my ankles. I have had too many issues with both of them.
As I stumbled about on the wilder, pathless parts of the Meuse Corridor I sprained my foot but was glad to fall head-long into a patch of Earthnut Pea, Lathyrus tuberosus. So recovering I sat down and looked more closely at the pretty flowers of this Sweet Pea.
Lathyrus tuberous also goes by the curious name 'Mice-with-tails' in various European languages (in The Netherlands 'Muizen-met-staarten' devolves in particular to the Betuwe region where there was once some minor cultivation of this plant).
Whence that name if the flowers don't remotely look like mice? Well, the tubers apparently remind of mice because of their small, blackish oblong shape with a 'string' (=mouse's tail) attached. These tubers, though small, are said to be good to eat after roasting or cooking, tasting a bit like Tame Chestnuts.
Mostly though this Sweet Pea is a thing of beauty.
But I found a number of references to the use of the flowers of Earthnut Pea for the production of an aromatic oil in the seventeenth century. A bit hard to trace the origin of that assertion. In the end I did find the work of a Swiss-German chemist, one Christoph Heinrich Hirzel (1828-1908): his Die Toiletten-Chemie, The Chemistry of Toiletries (1892, 4th ed.). He gives a fascinating account and also a kind of recipe book for the manufacture of various toiletry sweeteners and aromatics. One is for 'Platterbsenessenz' or 'Dufterbsenöl' (Erbse=Pea). Hirzel recommends a mixture of: 1/4 litre of 'Tuberosenextract', 1/4 of Orange flower extract, 1/4 of Rose pomade, and 30 grams of Vanilla extract. His description concludes: "Diese Platterbsenessenz riecht sehr angenehm und erinnert an Orangeblüten"; a bit disingenuous I would think given that a quarter of the mixture is indeed that of Orange flower extract.
Regardless my sprained foot, my lack of having been able to savor the cooked tubers, and Hirzel's disingenuity, this is a Very Pretty Sweet Pea in full flower!
The Nature Center is a bird paradise and has an abundance of buntings. I took this the day after I broke my leg. Thought I just had a sprain. Couldn't let a little sprain stop me from shooting.
We hiked and climbed around in the beautiful Capo Testa, a wild landscape in the North of Sardinia on that stormy day. The air was so filled with salt that my lens got all ‚milky‘. And on the way back I sprained my ankle. Nevertheless, it was a good day.
Where Tales of icy slopes, sprained limbs and tumbles begin... Long way down if you through the sticks and freefall to the valley below :) Italian Alps
I had this great idea to do a collage with the harbour light at night coupled with one of Cabot Tower also at night. That was before I fell down, sprained my ankle and dropped my 5D and denting the rim of my 24-70L lens :( . I never go tthe second shot, and the lens cap won't go on, but at least my camera still seems to work.

The last time I went running was in mid December, due to a sprained foot and a longlasting illness, and I really really miss it. :(
Sorry I have been so absent from Flickr for 6 months. My problems started in June when I fell off my bicycle resulting in a very bad sprain to the hip resulting in 4 weeks on crutches. When just about over that I did my back in followed by 6 weeks of reduced mobility. After that the hip gave trouble again. Now I am hopeful of a first visit to London next Month for the first time since April.
This is a newly processed shot from 4 January. That day I made a night visit to the Thames foreshore with many shots worthy of editing. My main objective was the City at night especially from the Thames Foreshore which gives such a different viewpoint. This view is from the foreshore just east of the Millennium Bridge looking towards Southwark Bridge and The Shard beyond that. Of particular interest is the old building on the left and the remains of a wooden jetty on the shore dating probably from the late Middle Ages. The view is from the North Bank with St Paul’s out of shot behind and to the left and the Tate Modern a Modern Art Museum and former Power Station on the right and behind.. All navigable rivers in the UK belong to the Crown and were transferred to various public bodies over the years. For many centuries Londoners have gained public access to the foreshore with a number of access points all along the river with stairs some of better quality than others. There are public access stairs just east of the Millennium Bridge on both the north and south banks. Access is allowed but not digging without a permit.
It is particularly interesting to see the green line half way up the building on the left showing the wide range of the tide in London
The picture was taken with a Sony A68 with a Sigma 10-20 zoom at 10mm. 3 raw images 2EV spacing for HDR. The picture was enhanced with HDR processing using detail enhancer setting in Photomatix. Topaz clarity was used for more detail. Topaz Denoise was also used. In Photoshop various brightness adjustment layers were used with masks to get various areas just right including less bright on the bridge.

But Flickr, thou hast ruined the colours in this.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
I got up at 8am and cycled in the freezing frost over sheets of black ice to the woods and I sprained my wrist cause the tripod got stuck in the bike spokes and then it started pouring with rain and I got very wet and I put my furry hat over Bella, my camera, to keep her dry but I was very soggy and cold in my vest top and cape.
My old blog got full, so I started another, but halfheartedly. I'll sort it out eventually but for now you can have a look at these shots of Harry :) hereee!
And then you should go like my facebook page, for a hug.
My heart and my ankle, which I sprained the day before Fudge died, are slowly healing so I've started to go for walks again.
It seems strange not having a dog beside me and sometimes I still find myself going to get his lead before I set off.
Stereosonic music festival Sydney 2012. After being unsuccessful at obtaining a photographers pass and missing out on another ticket I consigned myself to not going though I woke to a text with a VIP gold class ticket with all but backstage access HAPPY HAPPY until spraining ankle on route and having to leave after a few hours due to pain ah well.....turns out I broke my ankle not just sprained, Doh....
Returning from 17 days at the fishing house in Arkansas, I am departing from my custom of posting my shots chronologically. 14 of the 17 days away were spent recovering from a hard fall on the back porch. Thankfully, all is well except for a badly sprained left ankle. Thus, most photos taken on the trip were from the truck or backyard chair. The milkweed plant partially seen here shows only 9 of the 25 fritillaries I counted. The fields were covered with this species by the hundreds, perhaps, thousands. Never have I seen such a prolific hatch as this.
Might want to see this one LARGE!
Slipping and sliding is what it took to get this image. I had 6 falls, about 5 close calls, got a sprained thumb from one of the six falls, a wind burnt face from the 30mph freezing cold winds and one frozen foot to get this shot. It was worth it and would do it again. Hope everyone is have a great week, looks like the snow is finally coming, and I guess it will be a while before we see frozen lakes again. Thanks for the visit.
So I finally was scraping together sometime and energy to be able to start commenting more and then . . .
I had just left work Monday evening and was walking out to my car, when I tripped and took one hell of a fall by swan diving face first onto the concrete walk way. -_- I broke my left wrist in two places and sprained the middle, ring, pinkie finger and wrist on my right hand. .___. So I'm down to my right index finger to use for the keyboard. Needless to say, any meowing by me is going to be minimal for a while. :( Just want to let every one know, I am seeing your images and appreciating them all very much.
...but that's OK! The novelty of rain has yet to wear off.
This was the view from my living room window last night, SOOC.
L on B looks better--trust me!
Happy Sunday everyone! Later I will tell everyone a great story about my latest toe injury (this one involves a beer bottle, a total wipeout, and a (probably) sprained toe.

“But listen to me. For one moment quit being sad. Hear blessings dropping their blossoms around you.” - Rumi
The last of the Rumi/Cosmo images.
These are actual cardboard stars I made and I love how this feels like something from a children's book.
Don't know if it's the white background or the cardboard props but I really like it. So this week I'll try to create more cardboard cutouts to include in my images!
BUT I sprained my wrist just right after this photo.
I edited this, typed these sentences and whined all with one hand. hahahuhuhu It hurts so bad.
I don't know how I'll cut and photograph tomorrow, most of all function, but again one must persevere!! 😑

[Because of a sprained wrist can't take new shots for a while...uploading from stock... :D]
Alright, these days I feel like doing more panoramas. I wasn't really satisfied with the proportions of the other one I made from Canada Place, so I went to Crabtree Park and shot an other one. I hope it's better. I know better locations, but I sprained my ankle and am waiting to be healed before going to these places. But I'm looking forward to it. This one was particularly tricky to get right, and there was a lot of trial and error in order to align the photos of the two exposures I made so that my two stitched panoramas line up perfectly. The original file is 146 MP, and the one I uploaded around 16 MP. The first layer was for the sunset colors and the foreground (yay for sensors with high dynamic range!), and the second layer was to add some lights on the buildings and street lamps.

The wood of the fish poison tree is light and soft, it is a pale yellow and is used in the construction of canoes, in construction, and as fuel. Its almond-like fruit disseminates by floating, and it floats very well. Its nuts are used to catch fish since it contains a poison with ichthyotoxins. (Saponins: A molecule with properties of a detergent that is produced naturally by plants. They are somewhat toxic and can provoke cell death). Once the almond is grated, it can be used to fish in the lagoon by paralyzing or killing fish. This plant has medicinal properties and, with topical application, can treat stonefish (nohu) stings, sprains, headaches, or as a cicatrizant. This tree is often found on beaches and has birthed the expression: “hotu painu” when speaking of people without attachment (it is seen as negative). We also say that this tree has the mythical origin of a human heart. Its flowers and leaves are used ornamentally.

A whole set of plants answers to the Malay name 'Terong Kuning', which means 'Yellow Egg'. But that's what the Slingshot Lad called this Solanum indicum, Spiny Indian Nightshade. Out of the corner of my eye I'd watched him as I traipsed up the hill noticing his attempts at knocking small birds down out of their trees. Not really my kind of sport or livelihood in the way of for example great Alfred Russel Wallace - who never made it up this hill - whose line (1859) is just visible over the Young Man's right shoulder.
I'd stumbled over a rock chasing after a particularly beautiful huge Carpenter Bee. He'd watched me as well; I got up unscathed but with a slight limp. He pointed to the spiny shrubbery with its Yellow Eggs - Terong Kuning - and purple flowers. It seems a paste is made out of them and then applied to sprains such as those sustained in soccer (sepakbola). Happily I didn't need to do that. Slingshot - diwal in Sasak, ketapel in Indonesian derived from Dutch - was away before I could ask his name, presumably after Feathered Prey.
PS Internet here still very feeble and intermittent... Sorry...
I sprained my foot a couple of weeks ago and am hobbling around on my moonboot. So I asked for wheelchair assistance for all 4 flights to and from Malaysia. It has been unexpectedly wonderful to be assisted everywhere, as I don’t travel often and get a little overwhelmed with navigating busy airports.
Day 306
I think I may have made something that I like, but I'm not sure. I wanted to climb a tree today but then I sprained my wrist, (trying to lift a pumpkin), so I just sat under a tree instead. Then I spent two hours in photoshopland and came up with this! Yay!
**Sorry, I couldn't resist such an awesomely fitting title ;)
Didn't explore a better angle for this iconic landmark in KL. See Rajesh's recent take or Daniel's for a more neck-spraining angle.
Thanks for your visits. I'd like to know your thoughts on the photo not just a simple group graphics. Please try not to leave long invitation graphics, and do not feel offended if it gets deleted.
The trail, pretty rocky and then with roots such as these, was trickier than I had expected, especially with my noble dog tugging at his leash. Still a good hike, no sprained ankle, plenty of sunshine.

I was waiting person pass through sidewalk, for in to parking lot stay on way.
The stupid 4 ton truck driver overlooked my car. My car got a sledge hammer from behind. It set the length of the car 2/3. Thank you, goofy. The pretensioner done seat belt was hard, heavy and messy. I’ve always set Recaro or Sparco in my car.
Because it doesn’t have to fight against side G.
Well, thanks to the seat there was no intense head-shake, but a cervical sprain and a lumbar sprain occurred.
I have to attend the hospital till the end of November.
I sprained my ankle climbing over moss covered rocks to get this angle, but I think it might have been worth it.
Watch out - incoming hummer with attitude ... and boy are they nasty until they've had that first cup of sugar in the morning. But then again, they're not a whole lot nicer the rest of the day ;-0
Just a quick SOOC as very busy and...sprained my ankle. I was sitting at my computer writing a lot on Thursday and my foot went numb. Oof course I did not feel it was numb so got up and wambam I went on the floor immedietley, twisitng my numb foot...Looks like must limit my computer times and find out what is wrong with my blood circulation. Looks like might have been a bit unlucky recently or justtiny bit clumsy ;-)
Hope you having some better times! Have a great week ahead! Warm smiles :-))

This is a better shot of the ring.
Strobist: 580EX on a tripod pointed at the ceiling triggered by the ol' ST-E2.
Common Comfrey, or Knit Bone as it's sometime called, by Dad always grew it for the leaves for a sprain. Lovely white bell shaped flowers.
last week justin was doored on forsyth. broken nose, black eye, sprained wrist, and a bent top tube.
Clambered up deer trails in order to get this view and sprained my ankle in the process, but at least I've got something to show for it!
There are days and days. But this particular one is different.
Sprain and toothache, is synonymous, that I can not eat properly and not run as I'd like.
Are those days on which the house is small and makes you have the feeling that you need to come up for air, that you go crazy inside.
It's OK, at least I have my photographs to vent and transmit this feeling.

I sprained my back yesterday doing situps so i've got a day off. Though i'd might as well finish this since i won't have much time otherwise.
I think she looks too skinny here. :x
Aah i love the rp. Tyler and Jamie FTW! Go Aussies!
It was thought I only had a sprain of my ankle but three months later after a bone scan it showed up a stress facture. Because it has been left so long I may have some trouble getting it to heal properly. Time will tell.
We have our bedroom and bathrooms up stairs and I can't get up very easily so am living down stairs just now. My computer is up stairs so can't access my photos for now.
