I am a happy girl today. I had a lovely evening at "the bridge" last night, am going to a movie for the first time in two YEARS today and tomorrow we're going to pick up the baby (who I miss like crazy, especially in the mornings). Happy Saturday!
This was taken in our backyard with the old holding one lens backward in front of the lens that is on correctly trick.

Os Strokes despontaram em 2001 com seu primeiro disco e uma missão nada simples: salvar o Rock. Hoje, dez anos e quatro álbuns depois, os caras se firmaram como a maior banda do século XXI, mandando ver em seu som indie e "sujo". Se o Rock precisava ou não de salvação, não sabemos, mas que The Strokes fez um bem danado para a música, isso fez!
thanks Marco, Raiko, Phillipp, Vera, Anna, Christoph, pixel pancho, On Off crew and all the persons we met at the strokes, that was great!

“Little Ted” is a creation of the Calderdale Stroke Unit. The little Teds promote the Stroke Association’s Act FAST message on either painted rocks or knitted bears. All carry the Act message: How to spot signs of stroke:
Facial weakness, Arm weakness Speech problems , Time to call the emergency services
The front of Woodrow Wilson House. I was standing in S Street, looking slightly uphill and southeast toward the home.
The second floor balcony is one used often by Wilson, who would be wheeled out to wave at adoring crowds and sometimes speak in halting, broken speech.
Woodrow Wilson House is located at 2340 S Street NW in Washington, D.C . After Wilson's second term as president ended on March 4, 1921, he moved into this house with his wife and two servants. Crippled by the stroke that ended his presidency, Wilson died in the house on February 3, 1924.
The house was built in 1915 by Henry Parker Fairbanks, a Boston businessman and carpet industry lobbyist, and designed by celebrated architect Waddy Wood.
The local neighbourhood cat hangs out on the same corner most days, and he's a total slut for being stroked. He lounges around inviting passers-by to come and pet him, and makes lots of friends who say hello and give him a rub behind the ears. I'm clearly not the only one who's made friends with him, as today I saw someone had written this on the wall where he can usually be found (though when I took this photo he was a bit further along, in the shade, though he padded over to nuzzle me and coax me to give him some strokes once I'd put the phone away.....)

Portrait photos of Joey Strokes. Parkour athlete and actor. We added his long time girlfriend into the shoot at the end of the day for some romantic couple shots.
Lighting: Profoto B2 we used a single head and switched up between OCF Grid, bare head, and zoom reflector. I would have liked to have used the OCF Octobox but we had a strong wind all day making it a bad choice for the conditions.

When we went to the Grand Rapids ArtWalk last year, Ellie got a chance to pen her Chinese name, Xiao Bai, using traditional calligrapher's brushes. This is but a detail from that sheet.
Until this year, Ellie's schooling consisted of half-days in Chinese-immersion language study. For fully half of each and every school-day, all she heard from her teacher was pure Mandarin Chinese.
We had high hopes for her language-acquisition, but then we moved. The Bellingham/Lynden area has no such language-immersion programs.
But the change may be for the best… the part of the day that Ellie spent learning in Chinese included her math class—and to this day, this is the subject area that she struggles with the most. She's catching up, slowly, but it's hard for her to be so bright yet be so far behind her peers.
We're working on it.

NEW VIDEO
Ant "tickling" a Spring Azure caterpillar (Celastrina ladon) with her antennae. (M0427)
Skunk's Misery, Middlesex County, Ontario, Canada.
June 11, 2015.
Here's a link to a still photo, taken a few days ago, at Backus Woods, showing the same behaviour as above.

This video shows a different species of Ant, shot at a different location with a different caterpillar I'd just found on Grey Dogwood blossoms.
The Ant is stroking the caterpillar, hoping it will produce a drop of sweet honeydew from its Dorsal Nectary Organ (DNO), a small pore on the caterpillar's back. You should be able to see the DNO in this video.
I shot this footage yesterday afternoon. It's just a short clip--I haven't even looked at the rest of the raw video--only this first "take". :-)
The caterpillar is merrily munching on the Dogwood flower blossoms while the Ant is trying to coax it to produce honeydew.
The background sound is totally live. You might even hear me swatting mosquitoes (they were pretty intense).

This is an extreme close-up (as they would let me) of a Monet painting of some water lilies. It is on display in San Antonio in the McNay Museum.
Monet is one of my favorite artists (Dali being my absolute favorite). This was part of a series called Water Lilies, and was painted circa 1916-1919. He painted many of these as practice, and this is from one of those.
What is great about the McNay Museum is that you can take photos (without flash), and can get up to "12-18 inches" away from them. The guard got nervous on this one and thought I was closer, but I wasn't- 15 megapixels and a good, stable lense helps a lot.
