There used to be two trees standing together here at Willow Lake - now there is one.
There used to be eagles who rested in this tree - now there are none.
There used to be many other things in my life - now they are gone.
But as I age, I prefer to keep the memories of what "used to be" - not dwelling on them - but looking forward to "what will be."
"That was. . . " he began.
"No, I'm done. I don't have the words.
You sucked the vocabulary out with my cum."
"You don't need to talk anyway.
I've got better plans for your mouth."
I used to be an avid Chess player, but as I gotten older and my being a physician took over most of my brain (trust me, not much space up there), I haven't played a game in years.
My dad found one of my older Chess boards, complete with all the pieces, and gave it to me just for keeps.
And well, I knew I wanted to photograph.

My own cross-dressing started by using my mother's sister's old pants. they became a fetishm of clothing for me... the tightness of the pants felt good when in use The tightness of the garments may also be seen as sexual bondage. Another reason is that nylon-spandex fabric (preferred by many spandex fetishists) is often produced with a very smooth and silk-like finish, which lends a tactile dimension to the fetish – as well as a visual one - Originally, jodhpurs were snug-fitting from just below the knee to the ankle, and were flared at the hip to allow ease for sitting in the saddle. Modern jodhpurs are made with stretch fabric and are tight fitting throughout. They are supportive and flexible. Like the hunt seat jodhpur, they have elastic straps that run under the boot to help hold the pant leg in place. Leggings are several types of leg coverings that have varied through the years. Modern usage from the 1960s onwards has come to refer to elastic close-fitting high-rise garments worn over the legs typically by women, such as leg warmers or tights. How ever...Leggings do, in fact, count as pants—provided they are opaque enough that they don't show your underwear, but the fabric of these pants was almost as thin as silk and the outline of the panties stood out when they were puffed up, stick out one's behind. Restrictions on wearing leggings is sometimes linked to slut shaming or body shaming, with critics noting that ...not being able to wear leggings because it's 'too distracting for boys' is giving us the impression we should be guilty for what guys do."
The pants in the picture are the original vintage women's Luhta pants from 1967 -
Using a little fill flash here softened with the translucent dome cap turned 90 degrees out, then shooting just off angle to the sun. This is my eldest daughter back from a year in Spain.
If you are wondering how I was able to take this capture using the lens wide open and the fill flash (which really works best below 1/200 second) ... achieved that using the 6 & 4 Stop ND filters to get the shutter speed where I wanted with the light varying in the scenes for the portraits.
Here the fill flash setting was around -1eV as well, to limit the fill light and make it look more natural.

Some say love it is a river
that drowns the tender reed
Some say love it is a razer
that leaves your soul to blead
Some say love it is a hunger
an endless aching need
I say love it is a flower
and you it's only seed
It's the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of wakingthat never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
who cannot seem to give
and the soul afraid of dyingthat never learns to live
When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been too long
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winterfar beneath the bitter snows
lies the seed
that with the sun's love
in the spring
becomes the rose

The Scriptorium is the large room (above), the Dead Sea Scrolls could have been written here. In this room plastered mud brick benches and tables were discovered along with three ceramic and metal inkwells indicating that the scribes who copied the scrolls sat here when the Roman army approached Qumran in 68 A.D. The scribes placed the scrolls in clay jars and hid them in the caves of the cliffs in the area.
Qumran is an archaeological site extending over an area of 100 x 80 meters (320 x 263 ft), in the West Bank and is a National Park. It is located on a dry plateau about 1.5 kilometers (1 mi) from the northwestern shore of the Dead Sea. The Hellenistic period settlement was constructed around 134-104 B.C., and was occupied most of the time until it was destroyed by the Romans in 68 A.D. approximately. It is best known as the settlement nearest to the Qumran Caves where the Dead Sea Scrolls were hidden, in the sheer cliff caves. The principal excavations at Qumran were conducted by Roland de Vaux in 951-56, though several later excavations at the site have since been carried out.

I used to paint watercolors years ago and have since traded in my paints and brush for a camera! I may paint again someday. This is one of my last watercolors I did.

La zona, posta a metà strada tra la montagna e la pianura e punto di passaggio per raggiungere il Friuli, fu da sempre un sito strategico. Attorno al X secolo fu eretta una fortezza controllata dai vescovi di Belluno, ma di probabili origini romane. Lo stesso toponimo sembra derivare dal latino cuniculus indicante i passaggi sotterranei del castello[6].
Conegliano "nacque" però nel XII secolo, quando un gruppo di famiglie nobili si organizzò creando un governo di tipo comunale attorno alla bastia, con la conseguente formazione di un borgo. Il Castello di Conegliano rimase sempre il centro del potere, sia civile (con la sede della podesteria) che religioso (con la collegiata di San Leonardo). Le attività artigianali ed agricole furono incentivate dalla fondazione di numerosi monasteri: Santa Maria in Mater Domini (1231), il convento dei Padri Umiliati di San Polo (1316), Sant'Antonio, San Francesco dei Frati Minori (1231), per non parlare degli ospizi e delle congregazioni di laici.
Con il sanguinoso assalto del 1153, Conegliano fu però subito sottomessa al comune di Treviso che ne potenziò le difese, ricostruendo il castello, vista la posizione chiave verso il Friuli con i domini del Patriarcato di Aquileia. La cittadina seguì le sorti della Marca e passò agli Ezzelini e agli Scaligeri, che la munirono di nuove fortificazioni. Anche con la Repubblica di Venezia, a cui Treviso passò nel 1337, e la breve parentesi dei Carraresi (1384-1388) l'opera fu continuata e venne innalzata una cinta muraria che racchiudesse il borgo. I lavori di fortificazione e di ampliamento si protrassero anche nei secoli successivi, nonostante il rovinoso attacco degli Ungari del 1411. Il paese si abbellì anche di palazzi signorili e istituzionali ma la decadenza si fece sentire già dopo la guerra della Lega di Cambrai.
Nel Settecento il castello, già da tempo in rovina, fu in gran parte demolito per fornire materiale di recupero utile alle nuove costruzioni, tra cui il Palazzo Comunale (1744).
Come tutto il Veneto, la città passò a Napoleone e infine agli Austriaci che ne svilupparono l'economia e le infrastrutture. Con la costruzione della Strada Maestra d'Italia e della ferrovia (1858) il centro vitale del paese si spostò più a sud, attorno alla stazione. Nel 1866 passò con tutto il Veneto al Regno d'Italia. Nel 1917, dopo la Disfatta di Caporetto, Conegliano fu occupata dagli Imperi Centrali e subì notevoli danni. La città riuscì successivamente a risollevarsi grazie alle ferventi attività economiche (prodotti caseari, vinicoli, officine meccaniche ecc.).

Used Mavic Pro to take a few shots of the center a little before sunset. I'm thinking high noon would've prob given more favorable lighting.
I used my two Yongnuo YN-560 + RF-602 + Nikon D5100 + Sigma 70-300mm Macro.
I have to admit that the big drop in the middle is from a second shot. Without that it would be hard to recognize the effect and therefore I placed it there.

View of the lighthouse with Jacques Cartier Bridge in the background on the Saint Lawrence River.
This lighthouse was built in 1912 (station established 1907), it has been inactive for many years. 14.5 m (48 ft) square concrete tower on a square pyramidal concrete base; square wooden lantern. Lighthouse painted white. It replaced a 19.5 m (64 ft) square skeletal tower with lantern and gallery that served for only five years on a nearby pier. The only lighthouse in the downtown area of Montréal, this light seemed endangered for many years. However, it was repainted, in 2007, and it appears now to be in good condition. Located on the west side of 'Île Sainte-Hélène in Montréal harbour.

Using cars and trucks for publicity purposes has a long tradition.
The French car designer Philippe Charbonneaux made a lot of this kind of extravagant vehicles.
Charbonneaux designed this publicity truck for Astra Margarine in 1954. It was built on a Delahaye 163 L chassis by Coachwork Le Bastard, Rouen.
This image is showing the same truck as the previous one, but here with a lifted roof.
Diesel engine (by Panhard).
Production Delahaye 163 truck: 1946-1954.
Original old French reg. number: 1954 (Paris).
Taken from original 1950s picture, found in an interesting internet article by Tatra87 on curbsideclassic.com.

Computers and electronic technology are in the classrooms for good. Many schools have 1 to 1 initiatives that put a computing device into the hands of each student. This graphic is a challenge for teachers to move beyond the obvious and traditional uses of computers (browsing, clicking, chatting, and gaming) to inventing, designing, creating, building, sharing. Inspired by a Mitch Resnick Lifelong Kindergarten video. www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7rlLml5ReQ
We don't just browse, click, chat, game, we invent, we design, we create, we build, we share.
