God fashioned Adam from dust and placed him in the Garden of Eden. Adam is told that he can eat freely of all the trees in the garden, except for the tree which contains knowledge of good and evil. Subsequently, Eve is created from one of Adam's ribs to be his companion. An evil serpent convinces Eve to eat fruit taken from the forbidden tree, she gives some of the fruit to Adam and they are banished from the Garden of Eden.

I am getting back to going through a set of negatives (no prints of anything) mostly taken by my grandmother, "Nanny", Ethel Harner, also some by my mother.
Some of them are from a trip taken in the late 40's. Nanny and her second husband Sid drove from southern California, through Yosemite, and cross country... taking pictures along the way. Many of them are variations of: "Sid standing in a parking lot with 'insert landmark here' in the background."
I have hundreds of negatives to look through. I am just starting the process. I have much sleep to lose in this endeavor. And I am looking forward to hitching along with Nanny and Sid on their trip across their America.
Another cracking day yesterday,so I took advantage of the sunshine and headed down to Freshy after work to take advantage of the colours that come with sunshine and a light nor-easter.
This was better than the day before as the wind was only light.
I've owned the70-200mm f2.8L for a number of years and only ever used it for portrait shots of the kids, that is until now.
I really like the look the long focal length gives off.
Might have to sell my other lenses and upgrade this to the markii hahahaha.
Hope you like.

Our Daily Challenge 24 February-2 March : Ist Person Chores.
Ralphie has become very fussy in his old age, and I can spend more than 30 minutes twice a day getting him to eat.
A chicken breast, served at the temperature of a recently killed mouse, is acceptable, followed by an Irish skinless sausage.
Later he will probably eat his dry kibble mixed with Ardennes or Brussels pate and topped with Waitrose Essential chicken ham and sweetcorn Deli filler.
I have never had a dog who wasn't keen on food before !
Truly a daily challenge!
Troy has tempted the travellers for thousands of years. Troy Museum situated 700 meters to the east of Troy archaeological site.
Over the centuries, the epic Trojan wars from Homer’s Iliad have been tempted the travellers for thousands of years to come to visit Troy. Situated 700 meters to the east of Troy archaeological site. The Troy Museum attracted visitors to Troy now have a possibility to gain much more information about this archaeological site and put its history into a much broader perspective. Most of the artefacts displayed in the museum had been previously exhibited in the Archaeological Museum in the centre of Çanakkale, far away from the site of Troy. The new arrangement makes it much easier to see these objects, and the visit to the museum is an excellent introduction to the tour of Troy..
It is true that the story of mighty Troy has fascinated travelers for thousands of years. With my wife Kathy, who is very interested in history, we wanted to see the Trojan stories and the conditions of that day once again. There were very few visitors as the tourist season just started and it was important for us that it wasn't crowded. Amongst the exhibites, the small section of golden crowns made of very small and thin leaves of gold and the small medical instruments used in the conditions in those days caught my attention, small bottles with different colors and incredibly beautiful shapes. The techniques of how to set the sail in different seasons at sea used by ships are among the techniques that still using by the seafarers nowadays.
Visit the museum 3rd floor inviting you to meet the emperors. Statues of Hadrian and Augustos and one of the oldest example of sacophagus with figurative narration discovered in Anatoria so far. I also recommend the terrace view. It's a bit windy but plenty of oxygen feels great... The museum exhibits around 2,000 artifacts in total and awaits its visitors with more than 40,000 artifacts in its warehouse.
Text description provided by the architects. The archeological site of Troy has been inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1998 because of its outstanding universal value as a site that has witnessed various civilizations for over 4000 years and has been a significant influence on the development of the European civilization, arts, and literature over two millennia. Museum of Troy, located 800 meters from the site, is honoring this heritage and is a medium to tell the rich history of Troy in relation to its natural, cultural, artistic and archeological context. The museum building was acquired as a result of a national architectural design contest held by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism of Turkey in 2011. The museum was opened to visitors in October 2018 as a result of 7 years of work.
The building of the Troy Museum stands out in the barren landscape of the Trojan plain, attracting the visitors' attention from afar. If the effect it makes on the visitors is the one that its designers aimed at, remains an open question, to be answered by the guests themselves.The entrance to the Troy Museum entrance is accessed by a large ramp lined with concrete walls with niches holing small exhibits. The ramp leads the visitors to the subterranean floor, with an entrance hall. This level also houses exhibition spaces, a cafe, a restaurant, and a museum shop. There are also conservation laboratories and storage space for the museum's collection, inaccessible to the visitors.The exhibition is divided into four levels, starting at the lowest one: Cities of Troad, Layers of Troy, Ancient World, and Troy Excavation History. Above them, there is a terrace offering the views of the site of Troy and the whole region of the Troad. These four levels provide an overview of Troy and the Troad, divided into seven sections: Troad Region Archaeology, Bronze Age of Troy, Iliad and the Trojan War, Troad and Ilion in Ancient History, Eastern Rome and Ottoman Period, History of Archaeology, and Traces of Troy.The exhibition presents these stories along a chronological timeline highlighting technological changes, social organization, political and economic relations, urban development, daily life, arts, and craftsmanship. The visitors can explore, read, watch, contemplate, and interact with the exhibition at their own pace. Moreover, a special storyline has been prepared within the exhibition for the younger visitors, to evoke their curiosity and facilitate engagement with the artefacts.

We mainly visited that beach for some photography, but I couldn't resist and climbed some of these tempting rocks.
From a family easter holiday in Skagen, Denmark. Here on an evening walk to the beach north of Skagen - March 28, 2018.
Happy Toy-in-the-frame Thursday!
Ahzsa (right) has put the Easter candy on the table but she and Gemma are very aware that someone is overly interested in it. Barkley, always curious about what his human family is doing and diligent about checking out their food to see if they are having something yummy and not sharing it, eagerly approaches the table.
"No, Barkley," says Emma. "Dogs can't eat this or they'll get sick and then it'll be our fault, not yours, Barkley. So, we may have to put this candy platter somewhere else so you don't try to take some. I don't want you to lick some of it and then knock it all over before you lose interest."
"Come on, Ahzsa, let's take the platter and put it in the fridge so we don't tempt him."
*Gemma is wearing the last outfit that arrived in the mail for the Blythes.

As tempting as it seems on a sunny day, I've never dared sit in one of the Radcliffe Camera alcoves. I imagine you need a University Readers card but even if you don't, people like me would just come along and take photos.......

From Wikipedia : "The Radcliffe Camera (Camera, meaning "room" in Latin; colloquially, "Rad Cam" or "The Camera") is a building of Oxford University, England, designed by James Gibbs in neo-classical style and built in 1737–1749 to house the Radcliffe Science Library. It is sited to the south of the Old Bodleian, north of St. Mary's Church, and between Brasenose College to the west and All Souls College to the east.
The Library's construction and maintenance was funded from the estate of John Radcliffe, a notable doctor, who left £40,000 upon his death in 1714. According to the terms of his will, construction only began in 1737, although the intervening period saw the complex purchase of the site. The exterior was complete in 1747 and the interior finished by 1748, although the Library's opening was delayed until 13 April 1749."
