Second Life vetted - Satire and Irony
View allAll Photos Tagged vets
After a month of contemplating and shooting desert landscapes, I was hungry for genre compositions, and today I was definitely lucky! Although it is unlikely that the sheep like what is happening ...
The process of dynamic arrangement of human figures and animal figures in the local space of my photo-picture,
a figures which are in constant motion and do not stop for a second.. It definitely creates a feeling of life for me now !
But all this violent movement is just a careful examination of a tiny point in the endless space in the middle of the hills ... and we are like restless microorganisms in a drop of water ...
here is just an illustration to the story in the previous photo in a Kazakh photo album from Mongolia

a crown on the head cut off by the edge of a photo frame is not a mistake when using a viewfinder devoid of parallax correction - I look through the viewfinder of a SLR camera.
But this is my desire - to bring , show randomness and momentum
in this frozen image of time with the help of this cinematic visual technique.

Etta loves the Vets ... she gets to greet Receptionists, Nurses, Vets and maybe visitors, including other dogs AND cats (she doesn't get so close to the cats) ... and she always gets plenty of attention AND treats😂
Daily Dog Challenge: Greeting
For those of you following this beloved cat of mine, she's still with us. Not doing too well. Everytime I think that I must take her to the Vet and have her put to sleep, she springs back for a bit as she did this morning when we all got up. She ate some (not enough) and drank lots of water (which is good). Now she's back in her bed and probably will sleep for hours and hours. Trusting in the Lord ...
I think its probably been over three years since I have photographed a Robin. Something I would look forward to every winter when they come down from the Mountains and can be found closer to home. They visit the farm every year so I was able to play with this lovely make Flame Robin (Petroica phoenicea) who was rather bold and posed for me nicely on this pole. I couldn't get near the females.
Our time ended on abit of a sad note when I found the resident Echidna that has featured in some of my photos hit by a car out the front. She was alive so I stood by her to stop other idiots speeding past and doing more damage while the Sherpa got a box and some gloves (very spiky animals).
None of the Vets were open so we got in contact with Wildlife Victoria. We eventually got connected with a lovely couple who were wildlife carers 20 minutes away and took the echidna there. She was hit on the nose which is their most sensitive part. I couldn't tell what other damage had been done. My main concern was that she was in pain and suffering. The couple were a retired nurse and medic so the echidna was in good hands and will get pain relief. The carers will take it to Healesville Sanctuary and if it can be saved, it will nursed back to health and released right back where we found her. I am hoping for a good outcome.

Etta was very excited to visit the Vets today. She has been very itchy so had an injection (that has worked in the past). She also had a biopsy of the lump on her head which came back negative for mast cell carcinoma. Good news.
Daily Dog Challenge: Make up Your own Holiday
Mine would be to go bush, but every time we go out for a walk now Etta wants to go to the Vets! It's just a 3 minute walk in the opposite direction to the bush. So I guess that would be her choice ... visit the Vets everyday ... if we try to walk past on the way to the shops she wants to go in ... & they have said we are welcome to come in on the way past for a treat! ... they do give her treats ...

With deep respect for the Veterans who have stood between us and a deep abyss.
Currently 100% of our forces are volunteers. They are paid peanuts and their families struggle to make ends meet.
I was surprised to hear on the History Channel this morning that only 20% of the Viet Nam Vets were draftees. I would have thought the inverse from popular lore.
Above are photos of my dad, my two brothers and me. I am the cute baby on the bottom left. My dad with the Lyndon Johnson big ear is on the top left. My older brother is on the top right and I'm pretty sure he is gay - if he is not gay he is missing a good chance. (Just look at the necklace he is wearing.) My younger brother is giving the finger to the world on the bottom right - a trait that he continues to this day.
I thought about the significance of this day when I saw a goofy wall hanging my mom put together many years ago and gave me showing these 4 photos. My Mom and Dad are long gone, but I thought of my Mom carefully cutting photos into circles to place in the frame as a special gift for me. – I removed them to scan for this.
So, my thought is that all of the Vets were once babes in their mom’s arms. They are not statistics to be used by politicians of any stripe. Both sides suck in my opinion.
My dad and both of his brothers served in the Navy during WWII in the Pacific. One of his brothers died in service. My mother’s only brother served in the Navy in WWII in the Atlantic. My brothers and I also served in the Navy.
My Father-in-Law served in North Africa and Italy.
Two of my wife’s 3 brothers served in the Air Force.
My older brother’s son served in the Army in Iraq during the first (1991?) conflict in a WMD unit.
My younger brother’s son is currently serving in Iraq in the Army as an interpreter. (Prayers for his safety are welcome and requested).
All of us volunteered.
I did diddlysquat in terms of personal sacrifice during my time in service.
Today thousands serve in harms way and deserve our prayers or good wishes.
I salute the brave men and women who serve and have served to keep us free.
Etta loves going to Selwood House Vets, Hazelbrook! We were just passing by this time.

Today was kind of a stressful day. We had to bring our Irish Cob mare to the vet, to see if everything was good with her foal. One of the best Vet Clinic we know is at Evergarden Equestrian, so we asked for a meet up and luckily, they give us one really fast. Our mare is at her fifth month of pregnancy and as she already had a problem with her previous baby around the same time, we rather prevent a drama to happen. They did all the exams they needed and as you can see, she was pretty relaxed, prove that you can go to EE vet clinic with your eyes close, your horses will be well treated ! After the vet did all the checks on the mare, they confirmed that everything was fine ! Stress relief ! Now we can go back to the Ranch and put her out in her field so she can enjoy the rest of the day.

13/365. because this is what i'm focused on 110% right now.
We took her to the vet for "air licking" which is a psuedo type of seizure. Well they took blood from the underside part of her neck for like 5 bloods tests & her neck was all gross with clumps of dried blood. Then when they clipped her nails they cut one of her pads so she needed the bandage. And she gas neck spurs so from her fighting her neck is hurting her now. Plus we have to wait days for the test results to see if this is seizure related & her doses need to be adjusted or if it's caused by "something else" like tumors or something. So needless to say I'm a nervous wreck on the verge of a panic attack.
i normally really like our vet but today it just seemed there was no compassion at all. even the girl at the front desk said it looked like a vampire got hold of her!
ETA-after a few minutes she figured out how to walk with the bandage. we only had to leave it on for an hour or two. she ate a ton of food, drank water then wanted outside :) we took off the bandage & though it's not bleeding anymore, the cut to her bad looks pretty bad. they put the glue on it, so hopefully that's the end of it. and i gave her a dose of pain med. poor baby!

The largest skatepark in the Netherlands has opened on the Amsterdam Zeeburgereiland. Designed by Danish buro Glyfberg & Lykke, it's a state of the art skateboarding space that skaters from all over the Netherlands and beyond absolutely love - "hard, vet en cool."
It opened last Saturday - I was two days too early :)
Vietnam vet that I met at the VA hospital. He was with a SF unit & was wounded by machine gun fire. He preferred to talk about his hound dogs & cattle.

Prompt: A watercolor of a West Highland White Terrier wearing a white lab coat and blue medical scrubs, in a vet exam room, looking up with a curious expression. The lab coat has a red cross on the sleeve and the dog is holding a small white box with a red cross on it. The dog has ears perked up. The background is a medical exam room. The lighting is soft and natural, coming from the left. The photo is high quality with a shallow depth of field, focusing on the dog. --ar 4:5 --v 6.1

We took Miette and Sophia to the vet this morning. It seems they have mites or some similar parasite. Ugh, we had to watch them scrape a sample from her back and then give them both injections. :( It was awful.
