Hello beautiful souls

It's been a couple of difficult days to say the least, and Ukraine needs all the help, support and kindness we can bring to the table.

Therefore, please, if you can purchase any products of our fellow Ukrainian creators, it would be an immense help to them. I will share a list of some of the Ukrainian creators that • Rou .::R.Bento::. • put together (thank you so much for that!).

Lastly, along with this picture, I am featuring ART&KO, a Ukrainian store, which I have the honor to blog for. Please share the love!

Featuring:

ART&KO - Sexy Girl Set available at the Mainstore

 

The other Creator from Ukraine that I have the honor of blogging for, is Sorumin. Please visit the store and make a donation through purchasing one or more of her beautiful designs. SORUMIN Store in-world - maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Veles%203/126/216/1000

I am so moved by the courage and valor displayed by the Ukrainian people as they stand up against a tyrannical megalomaniac.

 

The world is with you! And here is a list, compiled by the owner of Mossu, of all Ukrainian stores you can help support during this time.

18th June 2015

I'm back from vacation and time do do some photographs. Vaki Kvaki has become one of my new fun finds store. Mainly because the designer does these incredible textures that make me wish this came in Real Life Sizes!!! The Dina outfit from Vaki Kvaki comes in 20+ colors available for both the Top and Skirt. But this crazy neon Greenish color is what popped for me. The skirt has a leathery/foil like look to it with ombre coloring. What's not to like about it.

 

To get this look

OUTFIT: Vaki Kvaki - Dina Top & Skirt

HAIR: Moon - Wave

EARRINGS: Rozoregalia - Uzyum

DRINK: Mona - Bubble Tea Matcha

EYES: Ikon - Empyreal in Pharoah

EYESHADOW: Dalila - Maria Eyeshadow Kit - Rhinestone Version

LIPSTICK: Dalila - Lip Kit EvoX Pack 01

NAILS: Cazimi - Chrome Nails Applier

SKIN: Mila - Rosie EovX [05]

Not really a macro, just a close-up with slices of cucumber (cut very thin with a mandoline) placed on a laptop screen.

Ukrainian owners of the SL stores likely won't be able to create new releases in the nearest future.

 

So I suggest supporting them by visiting their MPs and inworld stores, maybe making some purchases if you found something for you.

the list bellow will give you the names and martketplaces of creators who are stuck in the war area hugs xxx

Bench Obsession - Chapter 4

 

Neighbor: “Hi Neighbor!”

 

Wife: “Oh hi, how are you?

 

Neighbor: “I’m great. Say, how did that Kiwi bench photo thing go last Monday? Did they figure out that Steve didn’t actually go to New Zealand over the weekend to take that shot?”

 

Wife: “Everyone knew, but I don’t think anyone cared.”

 

Neighbor: “So did any bench photos make… Expand…Expose…Expect…”

 

Wife: “Explore.”

 

Neighbor: “Yeh, that’s it.”

 

Wife: “No, but he still thinks bench photos should dominate explore and he’s not giving up. He’s still plotting and scheming.”

 

Neighbor: “Plotting and scheming?”

 

Wife: “Yeh, he spent all night working on excel using AI. He collected data and created spreadsheets, graphs, charts and trend lines. He had a control chart with standard deviations and was mumbling something about correlation is not causation."

 

Neighbor: “So did he come up with some overarching string theory to unify all the fundamental forces that make up a great bench photo?"

 

Wife: ::sigh:: “He thinks so.”

 

Neighbor: “So tell me this brilliant new scientific revelation?”

 

Wife: ::clears throat:: “More is Better.”

 

Neighbor: “His great hypothesis is ‘more is better’?”

 

Wife: “Yup. More is better.”

 

Neighbor: ::rolls eyes:: “Elaborate.”

 

Wife: “Well, he figures that if you post a photo with one nice bench on it, it gets a set number of views. For round numbers, let’s say 100. So two nice benches in the same photo gets you twice as many, or 200 views. 3 benches = 300, 4 benches = 400 and so on. With enough benches multiplying the total views, the image can’t be ignored.”

 

Neighbor: “So, did he get a photo with lots of benches?”

 

Wife: “Yeh. When we were in Kansas he took one. Dodge City is a historic cowboy town where buffalo hunters roamed and where the old TV show ‘Gunsmoke’ was based. They have a place where they reenact old western gun fights and such, and there were a lot of benches there."

 

Neighbor: “Do you think that will work?”

 

Wife: “Of course not.”

 

Neighbor: “Did you tell him?”

 

Wife: “Uh huh.”

 

Neighbor: “What did he say?

 

Wife: “Happy Bench(es) Monday!"

   

What do you think? I kind of like this triple matt with color punches. Hey, I am bored with the work budget spreadsheets needed to CREATE COLOR!!!!!

The word from corporate is to shelter in place and work from home. And Jasper has graciously offered to do some spreadsheet analysis for me while comfortably relaxing on our home office couch. He does a great job, though I’m not sure Health and Safety would approve of his workstation ergonomics.

Quinn makes sure that overspending in other areas does not lessen the budget for cat treats...

Beaches of the Central Coast #23 of #49

 

Thanks for your visit and to everyone who takes the time to comment. They are all greatly appreciated.

 

A mate & I vowed to explore all 49 beaches nestled along our little stretch of coastline this year. While I've tested the water at a fair wack of them over the years, I'm sure there are still some hidden gems awaiting discovery. So, 2024 is a fresh start to visiting them all. And maybe another couple of dozen or so just to the North ;) I have a spreadsheet ready to go to record important details, like when, how hard it was to get to, difficulty, and was there a pub nearby for a nice counter lunch afterwards ;)

 

I may have become a bit impatient today and headed off by myself. I was caught between workouts and the sky was filling with some nice-looking clouds, so I seized the opportunity to explore Forresters Beach, a virgin beach for me. And only 20 minutes from home! I was expecting a "busy" beach but was pleasantly surprised by its tranquility and relative emptiness. It is an unpatrolled beach with rocky formations framing each end. I opted for the southern end. As luck would have it, it was low tide, giving me some cool rock shelves to wander around clicking the shutter like my finger had a mind of its own.

 

As I walked along, I encountered some exciting (to me anyway) sights. I'll try and make it sound more exciting ;) - a tapestry of seaweed sprawled across the sands, clusters of vibrant blue bottles offering me their sting, and pockets of dune flowers adding a pop of color to the coastal landscape. Forresters Beach, I'll be back! The northern end awaits, as does a sunrise. Without a 1-hour time limit.

 

PS - Not going to visit them in order, that would be a bit too organised for me ;)

  

This pelican isn’t flying it’s auditing the sky. Wings locked in a posture that screams “I’m not here for your nonsense,” it glides through the blue like a bureaucrat of the breeze. Every feather is a spreadsheet, every wingbeat a memo to gravity reminding it who’s in charge.

 

The lighting hits just right crisp on the crown, shadowed under the wings turning this airborne curmudgeon into a sculpted silhouette of authority. The background is a wash of soft clouds, but the pelican doesn’t care. It’s too busy managing the ocean’s fish inventory and judging your casting technique.

 

Your photograph captures that perfect mid‑flight arrogance, the kind of moment where nature pauses and says, “Yeah, this one’s union.” The composition isolates the bird against the sky, giving it the stage it deserves. It’s minimalist, cinematic, and unapologetically Florida.

 

And here’s the kicker: this isn’t just wildlife photography it’s avian attitude immortalized. The clean lines, the tonal balance, the aerodynamic geometry all of it makes this image a statement piece for collectors who appreciate coastal wildlife, motion, and personality.

This is the kind of print that makes people stop, smirk, and say, “That bird’s seen things.”.

 

My latest photography is now available for purchase at crsimages.pixels.com/, featuring prints, framed art, and more from my curated collections.

This squirrel is living proof that snack time is sacred. With paws locked on a cracker like it’s the last chip in the bag, this little legend is halfway through a crunchy epiphany. And yes, it’s already planning a sequel: “Snack to the Future II: The Chip Strikes Back.”

 

Have to ask...

Why did the squirrel bring a spreadsheet to lunch?

To track its nut-trition goals.

 

Captured in crisp detail with a backdrop of green serenity, this image blends wild charm with snack-fueled comedy. It’s a portrait of focus, flavor, and fur—ideal for anyone who believes mealtime should be taken very, very seriously.

I think this pandemic has gotten to Jasper. During the first lockdown last spring, Jasper would help out, doing spreadsheets for me or whatever (see first comment). But on Friday, I was working away in my home office and I turned around to see Mr. Lazy Bones on an extended break. It's OK. It's probably good to have someone behind me, supervising.

Golitha Falls National Nature Reserve, Liskeard, Cornwall

 

I’ve held back on posting this image since the day I got back from Cornwall. It has special significance for me… not because its an awesome picture, capable of sweeping all before it in competitions, but just a moment in time and a state of mind. I know everyone has had a tough time over the last few years with Covid and lockdowns, followed by the global meltdown exacerbated by the war in Ukraine etc, etc. If we are truly honest with ourselves, most of us have gotten through the worst of the worst unscathed… those who have lost close loved ones or been bombed out of house and home might say ours are first world problems and they’d be right.

 

Still, everybody has their own personal stories to tell and life can drag you down at the most unexpected moments. I’m envious of those who can pick themselves up, dust themselves down and get on with life, unfortunately, I’m not one of them… I thought I was, but everyone has their breaking point. Mine came on the 6th September 2021 at 10:10am. Without going into all the detail, I put it down to a few things - the lockdowns, family health problems, legal battles and just for good measure – redundancy right in the middle of it all! I suffered a total breakdown resulting in severe anxiety and panic attacks that lasted for months and months. I can’t count the number of counselling sessions I had with Kathy over that time frame. I developed a scale - 10 down to 1 with 10 being the 6th September.

 

Recovery has been a very long road to travel with many ups and downs but the general trend (and no I haven’t done a spreadsheet on this) has been downwards towards 1. I’m only writing this now as the Cornwall trip was such a highlight for me last year and this very moment, sat on a fallen tree truck snapping away at the leaf covered rocks in the stream had such an uplifting happiness for me. But why three? I haven’t worked out what 1 or 2 means on my scale yet… I don’t think a lottery win would warrant that score as money truly doesn’t buy you happiness, but 3 is a very good day for me and I’m happy with that.

 

If you’re reading this and feel in a similar situation… yes, there IS light at the end of the tunnel, you will climb out of that pit of gloom. Speak to family and friends, it was the best thing I ever did.

 

Thanks too all those that helped.

Fab Free Blog: fabfree.wordpress.com/2024/07/02/when-i-paint-my-masterpi...

  

"When I Paint My Masterpiece" by The Grateful Dead

  

Train wheels runnin' thru the back of my memory

When I ran on the hilltop following a pack of wild geese

Someday, everything is gonna be smooth like a rhapsody

When I paint my masterpiece

I completed a couple of projects last year. In January 2021, Larry and I started a project to achieve 65 summits in the year I turned 65, and we completed that one in September. Over the years, we have travelled throughout Canada, and recently we were thinking about whether we had visited each and every Province and Territory, there are 13. With our trip to the Yukon in 2021, we realized we had indeed visited each one. This year, I thought I would keep track of the different birds I see over the year, and see what kind of number that brings. For me, different means different, and so it won't be an exact species count, as in some species, the males and females are more-or-less identical, and in others they different, and so I will count the males and females in those species as different birds. With Northern Flickrs, there are distinct variations, based on under-feather colourings, with Red-shafted, Yellow-shafted variations, and a hybrid of the two. For this project, I'll count each variation if there is one, and each of the different genders if they are visually different, as different birds. As with my summit project, I'll maintain a thorough spreadsheet. Wish me luck! PS I may turn it into a post-one-a-day project, except the photos won't necessarily be taken on different days. Today I have already four different birds done, but will post the rest over the next few days...

"Don't Get Your Tinsel in a Tangle" by Angus Gill & Melinda Schneider

 

Don't get your stockings all twisted

Don't miss no mistletoe kisses

Don't get your jingle (get your jingle) in a jangle

Don't get your tinsel in a tangle

The National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) sits high on a mesa above the town of Boulder, Colorado. On the left of the scene, the setting sun is breaking through low clouds that are providing a dusting of early-season snow to the Flatiron formation that rises behind NCAR.

 

Immediately prior to capturing this photo, I was upstairs in my home office working, where I've been ensconced since March 2020 due to the pandemic. I happened to glance out the window where I noticed some dramatic interaction between cloud and light. I figured a quick break from project work might be beneficial, so I grabbed my long, telephoto lens and wandered across the street to the large open field near our home. After a brief respite, it was time to return to spreadsheets, documents, and email.
