My hubby, my daughter Marieke (23) and I had lots of fun in a small Zoo Parc today! :-)

This animal (marten variety) was watching us...! :-)

Still enjoying the "last sunrays" of this week...the sunny weather will probably change tomorrow! ;-) I will visit your streams asap!

 

I have measured out my life in coffee spoons.

I seriously cannot live without coffee. I would probably whither up and die if coffee suddenly became extinct. I. love. coffee. ...on my 2nd cup now. Cheers! HBW :)

10 Year Project (October 2011)

 

Each month I take a favourite photo from ten years back, and re-edit it, using current tools and knowledge.

 

I really liked the original of this one, but I like this more.

 

This old shed was only just keeping it together just off the main road near Kaukapakapa, which is in turn near Auckland.

 

Does anyone know if it's still standing?

I haven't visited this tranquill valley for quite a while & missed it somewhat. There was a forest fire around 10 years ago which looks like had made a recovery unlike the great storm in 1826 which caused its desolation.

Nature has long since repaired the devastation. In 1999 eight thousand trees were planted and interpretation introduced to illustrate the natural succession of plants and trees thought likely to have developed along the valley and on the immediate fells since the end of the last Ice Age.

 

Happy New Year to you all !

I entered this photo in the 2015 Audubon Photography Contest. I didn't win, but my photo was selected as one of the top 100 judges' favorites!

 

Never entered any contests before. I am happy to just post here for me and my friends. But this was pretty exciting so I had to share. :)

 

My photo was # 47

Malaysia has some of the most dazzling arthropod life. The Borneo rainforest is 140 million years old, making it one of the oldest rainforests in the world and home to countless species of macro photography subjects, many of which are still undescribed. In this post, I'll showcase 100 of the memorable shots from Malaysia that I've taken in 2015. Please enjoy this photo series here: bit.ly/1mH9ZdI

Despite how it may appear in this photo, Rj and I are fine. If you don't know what's going on in my life right now, you can send me a message. If you're not totally creepy, I'll respond to that message. It's just not something I care to discuss publicly.

必ず世界の渚100選に選ばれる風景。

 

こんなに美しいのに、見ることができる人はとても少ない、

そう思うとなぜだか、残念な感じに包まれた。

 

................

 

絕對能入選為世界海岸百選的風景。

 

明明是這麼美的地方,能夠親眼欣賞的人卻非常的少,

一想到這裡,不知為何有股遺憾湧上心頭。

  

(沖縄.下地島にて)

Pequeña mariposa de color azul que habita la Península Ibérica y sur de Francia, donde podemos localizarla en los meses de junio-julio entre los 800 y 1.800 m. de altitud. Característica de esta especie es su color azul oscuro y las líneas marginales negras y estrechas, con bordes blancos en las alas y la forma de "ala de ave" de las alas superiores, que se separan claramente de las dos inferiores.

 

La especie presenta un acusado dimorfismo sexual (distinta coloración machos y hembras). En la foto se representa un macho de la especie, pudiendo visionarse la foto de una hembra de esta especie en el siguiente enlace:

It's hard to be 'bad-ass' when you're sporting pigtails.

Top 100

 

As an ongoing exercise to attempt to learn something about myself, I try to maintain a set of the 100 photos of mine that I like the most. Doesn't matter if anyone else likes them, nor does it matter WHY I like these ones.

 

So at the end of each year I take all the images I've rated the best, and see how many of them I should add to the 100. And of course that leads to the toughest part, because it means I need to remove some to make up for the additions.

 

I'm sure you can't see a whole lot of details, but... from when I started using a digital camera... 22 years, way too many images, but also people, events and travels that amaze me as time passes.

 

These are in chronological order, so:

* The very first one, top left, is a bug on a pink flower, taken a few days after Jan gave me the first camera.

*Photos 15, 16 and 29 are of Tobias, our grandson, and he's the only person in here more than once, I think.

* 12, 20, 33 and 38 are from what was my annual pilgrimage to a hot air balloon festival. I miss that.

* 39 is the first after we moved to Bali.

* 71 was the start of Taiwan.

* There are quite a few special people in here. You know who you are. ♥

* Sprinkled also in there are images from Australia, Malaysia, Thailand, America, and one from Beijing.

* None of my Tokyo photos have made the grade, but we're heading back there in a few weeks on our way to New Zealand for a holiday, so maybe soon!

 

It's been quite a ride. I hope it continues for a long time. :-)
