Yesterday I had a date with myself for dinner. With this indescribable beautiful view at mt. Lilienstein and the setting sun, it didn't need much to get a festally meal. Even the musical backdrop of an uncountable amount of different birds everywhere was a feast for the senses. And not as a sideline I had the opportunity to spend time with someone, thats really important to me. After all it was a very successful evening.
Gestern abend hatte ich eine Verabredung zum Abendessen, mit mir selbst. Mit diesem unbeschreiblich schönen Ausblick auf den Lilienstein und die untergehende Sonne brauchte es nicht viel um ein festliches Mal zu werden. Auch die musikalische Untermahlung von unzähligen verschiedenen Vögeln überall war ein Fest für die Sinne. Und nicht ganz nebenbei hatte ich die Gelegenheit Zeit mit jemandem zu verbringen, der mir sehr wichtig ist. In Summe ein sehr gelungener Abend.
Groynes reduce longshore transport by trapping beach material and causing the beach orientation to change relative to the dominant wave directions. They mainly influence bedload transport and are most effective on shingle or gravel beaches. Sand is carried in temporary suspension during higher energy wave or current conditions and will therefore tend to be carried over or around any cross-shore structures. Groynes can also be used successfully in estuaries to alter nearshore tidal flow patterns.

Sasha and I found this scared and hungry fellow in the dumpster by North Point Marina. The dumpster was very big and he couldn't get out without help.
To find long piece of wood around the marina was almost impossible, so we ran to the woods next to the marina and found old big branch on the ground.
It was very heavy but my 9 year old didn't complain so I didn't :-).
The second we put the branch into the dumpster he came out. I didn't have a chance get my camera.
He looked at us for couple seconds and ran away.

Every photograph in order to be successful should convey a message to its viewer ... A message sometimes subtle and vague, while others strong and profound.
A frame with a latent underlying message is what we have here ... A photo that consists of two mutually contradictory both physically and symbolically elements that are nevertheless "condemned" by an act of fate to a harmonic, pleasant to the eye and not likely to easily come across elsewhere symbiosis ...
A stony, tiny in size underground blockhouse still stands in one piece against all odds .. A second world war remnant that still holds its "proud" figure intact ... This symbol that reminds us of man's insatiable, hostile and aggressive nature is being "attacked" this time by a fully blossomed almond tree that "decided" to become its long-term partner in life ...
A scene that bears a strong anti-war message, a truly optimistic scene .... Devoted to all of you who are fed up with the unbelievable ugliness that lurks around our lives lately ...

Having successfully traversed the spiral tunnels and the Kicking Horse Pass, CP 1401 winds its way through the S curves on the approach to control point Ottertail. Having shot this location in the past, I knew this scene with the peak of Mt. Carnarvon in Yoho National Park off in the distance was a must when I was location planning for this trip.

A successful hunt for the Pied Kingfisher - - but the fish is almost as big as him - - he carried this around from one side of the pond to the other; trying to hammer it on a number of different shaped rocks in the hopes of killing it - in hindsight video would have been really good for this but its never where my mind is

Modern art galleries and museums have always wanted to tell a story in the usual fashion of linear history. So as a rule rooms in galleries tended to be set out in historical periods or particular styles. The contemporary curator however eschews all that, throws everything into the mix and allows the viewer to piece together their own story.
Now this is all very well for the informed art lover, but can be very confusing to those who have never studied art history. It's a sink or swim model, and the jury is still out on whether this approach is going to be successful.
This section of the QVMAG was recently renovated to allow for more works to be shown from the very large collection that Launceston has built up over 200 years (the settlement itself was founded in 1806). One problem for photographers is that the light intensity has been reduced to 40 lumens per square metre (for example a 60 watt light bulb provides 800 lumens per square metre). This is so the works are not damaged by excess light. But it does make getting good photographs of the works very difficult indeed. This photograph, for instance, appears much brighter than the lighting actually was.
Beautiful waders these!! This male was amazingly successful at catching leather jackets like this one caught as the sun began to sink over the mountain tops at dusk
The colours like a magpie are never just plain black and white. First thought and what looks like a flash of khaki on close inspection is a mass off stunning hues of green more beautiful than any jewellery or anything man could make !!

Having successfully kept Rebel Rooster under his protective care, Jasper stood tall and proud. It was a rousing chase around the family room.
I use the term "under protective care" loosely. On Rebel Rooster's first day with Jasper, he lost an eyeball to Jasper's teeth. But luckily, in between being a fighter jet pilot and being a nuclear physicist, I spent some time as an eye surgeon so I was able to reattach Rebel's eyeball and he's fully stereoscopic again.
Willem Schellinks' painting "Dutch Ships in the Medway, June 1667" captures a pivotal moment in naval history with remarkable skill and detail. Created in the Dutch Golden Age, this artwork depicts the daring Raid on the Medway, a significant event during the Second Anglo-Dutch War.
Schellinks' composition skillfully conveys the chaotic intensity of the naval engagement. The viewer is drawn into the scene as Dutch ships, powerful and triumphant, navigate the waters of the River Medway in England. The artist's meticulous attention to architectural accuracy and his ability to render the vessels' intricate details highlight his technical prowess.
The painting not only commemorates a victorious naval campaign but also speaks to the broader themes of national pride and maritime power during the 17th century. The Dutch Republic's naval prowess is showcased as they successfully penetrated English defenses, a feat that left an indelible mark on both nations' histories.
Schellinks' work exemplifies the Dutch tradition of marine painting, which often combined meticulous representation of ships and seascapes with a sense of nationalistic pride. "Dutch Ships in the Medway, June 1667" stands as a testament to the artist's ability to capture historical events with artistic finesse, making it an enduring piece of both maritime and art history.
The 555 Super Squalo was not a very successful car for Ferrari, only managing a 4th place at Spa in the 1955 season before being sold on to private collectors. Peter Whitehead and Reg Parnell bought the first two chassis (555/1 and 555/2) and immediately fitted 3.5ltr Tipo 860 Monza engines so that the cars could compete in Formula Libre in Australia and New Zealand. The cars were then given the chassis numbers FL/9001 and FL/9002.
The 860 Monza engine that was fitted to the cars meant the chassis had to be stretched 3 inches to accommodate the larger sized motor, but resulted in a car that suddenly became successful, taking numerous wins in the 1956 and 1957 seasons in Australia and New Zealand.

"I'm going to get some coffee. You want one too?"
"Always."
Was it an early morning walk? Or a late night adventure?
"Do you remember much of that day?"
"Kind of..."
"Kind of?"
"We had coffee..."
"What about the other night?"
"Didn't we have coffee too?"
"Yes, we did."
"Why is it coffee the main highlight we remember?"
"You mean; that 'YOU' remember..."
"Always..." he smirked and got smacked playfully by her afterwards.
Coffee helps heighten memories, as much as it energizes us. Fuels certain moments and makes us feel successful. Hence why it is called the CEO of all drinks. The only boss.
