Stealth, stamina, power, patience, speed, sound, smell and sight - these are all techniques used by predators when hunting. But it doesn't always work.

 

Lions are the most opportunistic hunters, killing whatever crosses their path or walks into them while they are sleeping. In many areas of Africa lions have adapted to hunting a particular prey species. In these areas the success rate is higher than areas where they hunt a range of prey species. This is due to the fact that they get better with practice at one species.

 

Lions are the most powerful predator and they live in prides, making it easier to kill larger prey. Despite this Lions are of the least successful predators and in many areas they scavenge more than they kill.

 

In studies across Africa Lions rank low on the success scale and in some areas they are at less than twenty percent success rate. They are powerful enough to steal the kills of all other predators and will take carrion that is days old.

Many African cultures revere the African Elephant as a symbol of strength and power. It is also praised for its size, longevity, stamina, mental faculties, cooperative spirit, and loyalty. South Africa uses elephant tusks in their coat of arms to represent wisdom, strength, moderation and eternity.

Båstnäs Car Cemetery July 2016.

 

Some of the Ivansson brother's collected car wrecks. Around 1000 of them scattered in the forest on their property in the western part of Värmland, Sweden. Just a few km's from the border with Norway.

Many of the cars were bought in the late 40's and early 50's from Central Europe, being left by American soldiers turning back home.

And even more 60's and 70's cars rest here.

 

This one's special. The birch tree entered the open left driver's door, continued through the front part of the car and breached through the closed window of the passenger side. And then went right up to heaven. Nothing will resist the force of nature.

In the background the house where the Ivansson brothers lived. True vagabonds, both of them. Their scrap metal business ended in the 90's and now both of them are dead.

DESERT DREAM – OMAR AKRAM

 

I am a Bactrian Camel

oh yes, I'll have you know

my weight is borne equally

on my third and fourth toes

I am an even-toed ungulate

or so the story goes

 

I am far superior to

the one-humped dromedary

I'm from ancient Bactria;

I'm kind and soft and hairy

my fur is like a teddy bear,

but don't cuddle me; be wary!

 

I am silky soft like my ancestors

who travelled the Silk Road

climbing up high mountains;

cold; carrying their heavy load

or moving across inhospitable deserts;

screeching in camel code

 

I am feeling very lazy today

relaxing in the rain

it's stopped a little while;

these tourists are such a pain

leaning out their windows

taking my portrait again and again

 

I am sighing with contentment

as they pass me by

there is no resentment;

I pretend to them I'm shy

showing them the back of me;

well that's as much as I can try

 

I doze; I dream; I long to be

in the silence of the night

but oh those shrieking jackanapes

now hidden from my sight

I fall asleep at last and wait

for the new dawn to break light.

Thanks for visiting. I am very grateful for the very kind comments and faves.

 

Since returning home I am experiencing a lot of computer and internet connection problems. It is very frustrating. I comment a few pictures and then have to reboot or constantly refresh the page and then the comment does not always print. I do not know if it is problems with Flickr or my internet or with my computer or a combination of all three, but I do apologise sincerely and will try to catch up as and when I can. Thank you for your patience with me <3

The stamen (plural stamina or stamens) is the pollen-producing reproductive organ of a flower.

A stamen typically consists of a stalk called the filament and an anther which contains microsporangia.

New York wandering in the past

SD1Merrill + APO MACRO 180mm F2.8 EX DG OS HSM

Alter Ego: Sharkattack

Name: Finn Willson

Allegiance: Villain

Powers:

* Can breathe underwater and on land

* Super Strength

* Bullet resistant skin armour

* Super speed underwater

* Can smell Meta blood from miles away as well as determine their powers even if it's not exposed blood.

* Enhanced stamina and durability

* Ocean sense, night vision and other heightened senses

* Empathy link with marine life

Weapons: None

Key Weakness: His powers become severely weakened when he has not submerged in water for longer than a few hours.

 

Origin:

Finn was a marine biologist who studied many endangered shark species', with his abilities he was able to communicate and live with the sea creatures. For years he never resurfaced the water, leaving his life behind and living with the creatures who became his family and the ocean his home. Finn discovered that his home was suffering from other humans who threatened the environment and their way of life. It was from then on he used his abilities to get back at mankind for destroying his home. He used to attack those who attended the beach, fish and those near the sea, thus getting the name "Sharkattack". But now he's upped his game and dawned a new shark-themed suit to terrorise the surface dwellers and attempts to submerge the land into the ocean so his brethren can make a new home, despite killing the millions of civilians who live in Atlas City.

Alter Ego: Mutiny

Name: Orœ's Andklim

Allegiance: Villain

Powers:

His alien biology allows him:

* Superstrength and Durability

* Longevity

* Enhanced stamina and Reflexes

* Photosynthesis on all colour spectrums.

Weapons:

* Solar suit to enhance his respiration rate and food intake. This suit also repairs broken bones and acts as a healing factor.

* Neural linked Detachable Robotic arm

Key Weakness: His great fear of fire, the mention of it alone makes him panic.

 

Origin:

Orœ was once a notorious space pirate Captain who was so ruthless and cunning he had bounty hunters on the run. His rage and fury was enough to put fear equally into the hearts of both his foes and his crew alike. However, on one fateful sunrise a newly recruited pirate displayed his fire breathing abilities sending Orœ into a petrified state making him terrified to the core. This display of weakness caused his own crew to question his role as Captain and they staged a mutiny whilst he slumbered. Orœ wasn't letting his story end like that though, betrayed and killed by his own crew. He slaughtered them all by himself, he wasn't feared for nothing. During the battle however his trusty ship was damaged and he was forced to land it on the closest hospitable planet which orbited a sun so he could survive. The crash cost him his arm but not his life, from that night onwards Orœ was no longer a captain. As what is a Captain without a crew?

 

Orœ now goes by the alias Mutiny, as a reminder of how misplaced trust can cost a man. He also was able to steal the available tech from various sources on Earth to build himself a replacement arm. Mutiny is currently searching Earth for a purpose but thus far has only found trouble with local heroes due to his mannerism and appearance not exactly being law abiding.

The girls had a girlie morning getting some henna done, so us boys went to the woods. The boys took their bikes; I took a belligerent whippet. We then went for pasties. Had a great morning.

The kids then fought in lumps for the rest of the day.

 

Ahh, family life.

Somewhat different the rest of my feed, but an amazing shoot yesterday with a ballet dancer friend of ours. Most of the shoot was a learning curve with a flashgun and my other half standing on a chair, but at the end I let the 85mm 1.2 do what it does best...

 

There is something wonderfully graceful about the feet of a ballet dancer.

The Camargue is a traditional French breed of working horse indigenous to the Camargue area in southern France. Its origins are unknown. For centuries, possibly thousands of years, these small horses have lived wild in the harsh environment of the Camargue marshes and wetlands of the Rhône delta, which covers part of the départements of Gard and Bouches-du-Rhône. There they developed the stamina, hardiness and agility for which they are known today. Traditionally, they live in semi-feral conditions in the marshy land of the region. The Camargue horse is the traditional mount of the gardians, the Camargue riders who herd the black Camargue bulls used for courses camarguaises in southern France. Thanks to @albertdrosphotoraphy @jabisanz and @armandsphotographie for an amazing tour, and it was wonderful to meet everyone in our group.
