13 Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead,

Tug-of-war....and on the verge of defeat!
This is my entry for the #43 - Game category in the 112 in 2012 Group.
Venezia. Piazza San Marco.
Scatto in B&W, temporale improvviso, una coppia sfida la pioggia, catturo questo momento di intimità in una fotografia dinamica, eppure armonica.
Another whale photo from our recent trip to Valdez.
This humpback was lunging a prey in shallow water near the beach. The water at the boat was only 50 feet so a humpback in this shallow of water is a bit unusual, food must have been good.
In this photo you can see the baleen at the top of its mouth. Once full of water he'll close his mouth then the tongue will dome up forcing the water thru the baleen that will strain out the goodies he wants to eat.

Hefty concrete supports beneath Centre Point, a 34-storey tower block in Central London. In the centre, the staircase linking it to the adjoining restaurant deck (above my head as I took this).
Completed in 1966, the building was designed by Richard Seifert and Partners.
Last night I was able to capture some light from the 1-trillion stars (literally) within the "nearby" Andromeda Galaxy. This is the closest major galaxy to our Milky Way, but it is still 2.5 million light-years away. The little blur above the galaxy is a satellite galaxy of Andromeda Galaxy referred to as Messier 32 (M32).
I took this photo in my backyard, last night... around 11pm. It was a 61-second exposure at 200mm, using an equatorial mount. I'm definitely interested in trying more experiments like this! :-D
This concludes my themed-share of this week... the week of stars/space #weekofstars #weekofspace
He just managed to catch it. His friends sure throw the ball hard.

Geronimo RIP. He was one of the horses that came off the Wilbur-Cruce Ranch in 1990 and a very important foundation stallion of the Wilbur-Cruce strain. A beautiful proud example of the Colonial Spanish Horse, all that knew him will miss this guy!
Jane took a few of this C series climbing out of Marsa and its steeper than it looks that tight bend and it takes some some good driving skills and commitment to get it round there and the hope that nothing is coming down the hill at the time to interupt his progress!
A Daf 95 had a real struggle trying to set off again when it got slowed just for a couple of seconds!
I went to Gaja today for really no reason. I accidently took a wrong turn and ended up at this Wat. I was hoping to get a shot of this monk sweeping, but he stopped to rub his back right when I pulled the trigger. The shot's a little blurry as a result, but I really like the pose and crop out of camera so I don't want to pass it up.
