This is Julia. She is my youngest sister. She is the only one of my five other siblings who is willing to be photographed.
This is an amazing place to accumulate different thoughts, and, or,get away from the WORK aspect that comes with college.
This was taken at Aparbat, a 4200 m summit in Gulmarg Kashmir. As an idea how high this place is, Mount Robson in the Canadian Rockies stands 3954 m tall. Reaching here is an experience in itself, there is an 8 km long cable car (I rode it while listening to Led Zeppelin's epic "Kahsmir")
Gulmarg is becoming a major skiing destination in world and is contesting for the 2010 Winter Commonwealth Games.
P.S. I hate the dust on my sensor.
This is the Waterfalls at the Sheep Farm (Groton Open Space Land).
I thought with all the cold weather we have been having that it would look nice. But I never thought it would look like this. I guess with all the rain we had in this past Autum has payed off. What looks like fire wood is from a tree that was up rooted from Hurricane Sandy.

Finally today I got a professional lab to scan this roll of black and white film.
Mr. Mohandas – well, at first when we entered this house welcomed by Mr. Othman, the chief tenant, we did not discover Mr. Mohandas til the later part when we were about to leave the place after bumping in and shooting the interior of the pre-war house for a while. I remember seeing Mr. Mohandas was outside his room standing still when he saw us, few feet across were we were talking to Mr. Othman. The chief tenant told him that we were guests and were here to take photos. I remember seeing only his silhouette because of the sunlight from the window cast over him, making him look a bit mysterious as he was quiet and motionless. Curiosity led to approach this man to get a closer look even though at first I felt a little afraid. And so I started a conversation with him and at that very moment my two friends were already shaking hands with Mr. Othman and about to bid him goodbye. I thought it was not over yet til I get some good shots of Mr. Mohandas’ portrait. I begged him to have his photo taken. He kept saying, next time, next time. But I told him, there might not be another next time and that while he is still 'young' now let me take his photo. After much persuasion ( and a little sweet talk), he agreed.
Mr. Mohandas was very calm and natural looking during the photo shoot. He did not even show any feeling of awkwardness when three photographers around him clicking their shutters. My friend turned to me in the middle of the shoot saying, he is handsome. Only at that moment I turned to have a better look at Mr. Mohandas and realised he is indeed a handsome 'young' man. Later I asked about his age, he told me he is 72 years old, I was a bit surprised :D

Chilly, but should be a nice day
...this is the photo I keep on my altar. A couple of years ago, another devotee saw this image in one of my pictures here and asked me to scan it for her. I never got around to it until today, but here it finally is!

I saw this on Pinterest but can't get the pattern link to work. Looks like it was made my someone in Portugal. If anyone finds this pattern, please, please, please share the link.
This surfer was taking advantage of the steady offshore winds to ply the coast line. I was pleased to capture the entire setup with a sharp image.

This was a fantastic loop! Made even better with Sandy and Glen from the Coastal Mountain Sporthaus as my guides. About 40 miles, most all of it gravel... Creeks, river, views. Wow!
This is a short half day hike from the Texas Spring Campground area near Furnace Creek. Shot with a 20mm prime lens.
This is a NaNo project.
I am very tire due to time lag. Need to adjusted back to the Pacific time zone.
Would give you all more information tomorrow.
Thanks for your visits & support.
I deeply appreciate it.
This is a shot of a street in Fossa Nova. It was here that St. Thomas Aquinas died. The church at Fossa Nova is visible in the background. Sixtus Senensis, a Dominican himself, relates the following in his Bibliotheca Sancta: “Holy Thomas, when he was at the monastery of the Cistercians at Fossa Nova, near Amasenum, the river of Campania, the character of his stomach having been broken on account of uninterrupted studies, he laid down…”
This was a reasonably good noctilucent cloud display with patches of distinctive ripples. They were very distinct in binoculars but not obvious to the naked eye.
The timelapses run from 22:12 UT to 22:36 UT. and are speeded up about 30 times. The bright star to the right is Capella.
Note the smooth flow through the ripples and slightly turbulent flow downstream.
This is our 11 week old puppy, Beck. He loves his family, is learning his commands well and especially loves to hike the trails near our home.
This is my Dahon Curve D3 with a new KLICKfix mount that allows you to affix bags and baskets compatible with it.
I got this KLICKfix frame adaptor from Thorusa.com. It is the longer one with better clearance. I wanted to use my Ultimate 5 Classic handlebar bag on more than one bike (the Ortlieb bracket only works properly on my mountain bike's handlebar, and not on the Dahon's) so this was a godsend.
This is my Dahon Curve D3 with a new KLICKfix mount that allows you to affix bags and baskets compatible with the mounting system.
I got this KLICKfix frame adaptor from Thorusa.com. It is the longer one with better clearance.

I also bought the New KLICKfix caddy horizontal mount that can be attached to the handlepost or the seatpost. I attached it on the seatpost of my MU P24 and the Ortlieb bag sits nicely there too, under my butt.
This P-51 is parked on the ramp at Republic airport during the annual air show weekend. Thanks to the American Airpower Museum for making this night shoot possible.

This amazingly original Fiat 850 Sport Coupe is about to be restored by Little Garage Classics in Halifax. A French car, it probably still has the original paintwork and apart from the driver's door pillar, most of the rust is superficial. The colour, white, is rare on this car. It will make an extremely unusual and enjoyable classic when complete.
This large manufacturing facility originally produced Crosley cars and refrigerators. In 2006 it is home to Optical Disc Solutions, Inc., a CD/DVD manufacturer.

This photograph was published in the Illustrated Chronicle on the 9th of November 1915.
During the Great War the Illustrated Chronicle published photographs of soldiers and sailors from Newcastle and the North East of England, which had been in the news. The photographs were sent in by relatives and give us a glimpse into the past.
The physical collection held by Newcastle Libraries comprises bound volumes of the newspaper from 1910 to 1925. We are keen to find out more about the people in the photographs. If you recognise anyone in the images please comment below.

This is a communist era monument in the town of Stara Zagora, Bulgaria, called the Memorial to the Defenders of Stara Zagora. It commemorates one of the major battles of the 1877-1878 Russian-Turkic War that was fought in Stara Zagora in 1877.
The monument was opened in 1977 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the battle. It was designed by the architect Kamen Goranov and the sculptors Alyosha Kafedzhiyski and Evgeni Baramov. The monument depicts a Russian general and six Bulgarian volunteers who represent the 6 units that fought in the battle. Accompanying the solders is an enormous abstract tower that symbolises the waving of a banner. The area around the monument has been paved with marble and iron tiles. The iron tiles have turned to the colour of rust and the effect is really very beautiful.
After the fall of communism in Bulgaria this monument fell into a state of considerable neglect, but in more recent years a considerable some of money has been spent on restoration. This is perhaps because this is another of those monument that celebrates the heroic exploits of Bulgarians rather than specifically communism, but one can only hope that this change of heart is indicative of a possible change in attitude to communist era monuments in Bulgaria in general.
This was the view on November 15, 2007, from the top floor of a parking garage near my office. Now that it's mid-November, sunset is well under way by the time I get off work each day. By mid-December, sunset will be over by quitting time, and most Phoenicians with normal work hours will be driving to and from work in the dark. Yucchh! My least favorite time of year.
This cemetery is just in the downtown of Khmelnitskiy. The oldest graves date back to the late 90-s of XIX centuries. There’s a plan to restore it as a park.
This loco was built by Ganz (serial number 199) in March 1968.
V43 1071 at Budapest Déli Pályaudvar on Wednesday May 14th, 2003.
This picture was an adventure in nature, fun, inspiration, friendship. Two friends and I ventured out to see if the wildflowers were well in bloom yet and see how many colors we could find. About 3 minutes apart, we each had this idea for this shot. Zipporah is the gorgeous model. I love how the light turned out. Due to its natural harshness at mid-day, I closed down the aperature a bit, and it came out interesting I think. I need to learn how to use my flash, maybe then I could have avoided the shadow in her eye? Anyway, it was such a fun day filled with the things we need most... nature, laughter, and beauty abound... love. Hope you like this Zipporah... thank you so much for being the true goddess ;-) and inspiration that you are!! xoxo

This Hubble image features a massive cluster of brightly glowing galaxies, first identified as Abell 3192. Like all galaxy clusters, this one is suffused with hot gas that emits powerful X-rays, and it is enveloped in a halo of invisible dark matter. All this unseen material – not to mention the many galaxies visible in this image – comprises such a huge amount of mass that the galaxy cluster noticeably curves spacetime around it, making it into a gravitational lens. Smaller galaxies behind the cluster appear distorted into long, warped arcs around the cluster’s edges.
The galaxy cluster is in the constellation Eridanus, but the question of its distance from Earth is a more complicated one. Abell 3192 was originally documented in the 1989 update of the Abell catalog of galaxy clusters that was first published in 1958. At that time, Abell 3192 was thought to comprise a single cluster of galaxies, concentrated at a single distance. However, further research revealed something surprising: the cluster’s mass seemed to be densest at two distinct points rather than one.
It was subsequently shown that the original Abell cluster is actually comprised of two independent galaxy clusters – a foreground group around 2.3 billion light-years from Earth, and another group at the greater distance of about 5.4 billion light-years from our planet. The more distant galaxy cluster, included in the Massive Cluster Survey as MCS J0358.8-2955, is central in this image. The two galaxy groups are thought to have masses equivalent to around 30 trillion and 120 trillion times the mass of the Sun, respectively. Both of the two largest galaxies at the center of this image are part of MCS J0358.8-2955; the smaller galaxies you see here, however, are a mixture of the two groups within Abell 3192.
