Whitetail Buck - Shenandoah National Park, Virginia
Ahhh - here we are again at the mid-Summer point...and the bucks are now coming out into the open more, sporting their almost fully developed velvet racks. I know that a lot of my Flickr contacts who are also Whitetail enthusiasts are looking forward to the coming month. Here in Virginia, the process will be done in 30 days or so, and the antlers will continue to grow at a rate of 1-2 inches per week.
Came across a familiar buck yesterday morning, one that I refer to as KING - and his rack is looking awesome again this year - but he still has 30 days to grow yet! This year he is shaping out to possibly be a 12-pointer, that is if the previous 2 kicker points form on his G4's this year (it looks as if they are there beneath the velvet). Note the 2 new sticker points on the back of his left antler - sweet! This guy is going to be a magnificent non-typical specimen in a few more years.
You will note there is a bit of noise in these 2 photos - I was taking photos of another buck at daybreak and I had set the ISO up to 6400 - and of course forgot to set it back. Go figure. There wasn't a great deal of light when this was taken at 6:25am but I think I could have done much better with ISO 1600 instead.
View a 27 second HD video clip which shows off the height of his antlers much better than these photos do. I didn't get the angle I should have with this 'small window' opportunity, and as you may know, certain angles just don't do justice to a bucks rack.

After seeing it on Alexa and that well-chauffed man on The Sartorialist I decided to take matters into my own hands. Chose this shirt that reminds me of Chloe's Fall 09 Collection. I think I may also stud one of Seth's shirts.

Found this odd little fellow today. One of its studs is filled in. Perhaps some excess from the mold?
Ahoy! These fun, nautically inspired studs are a cute nod to a life on the seven seas.
The vibrant blue and white pattern is very striking and would look brilliant with white, red or yellow. While only petite, these studs certainly don't fade into the background.
A dome of clear, glossy resin protects a blue and white patterned paper (recycled playing cards from Thailand!) which is backed by opaque, white acrylic and is securely attached to surgical steel earrings posts.
These small studs measure 1.4cm (0.55in) in diameter. The earrings come with flexible rubber earnuts, to hold the stud securely to your earlobe.
Studs to stop people slipping when traversing the turn at the top of a ramp at the local primary school.
