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😂

This morning Lene and I took the cats for their annual check and vaccination at Taatrup Dyreklinik. Results of the blood tests are still pending, but otherwise all three seniors passed in great style...

Vetter Falls in Nisga’a Memorial Lava Bed Provincial Park, British Columbia, is a cascade where Vetter Creek plunges over ancient lava flows. It is surrounded by coastal temperate rainforest. The photo is a panorama from 3 horizontal files.
On a cold cold evening ... Arkon has what appears to be an allergy to fleas. He was at the vet a few weeks ago and we came home with a treatment. He has been a very itchy boy and mutilating himself whilst engaging in strange aggressive grooming and has had to wear a cone for far too long to stop him from this behaviour. His back is healed up, but the itching is slow to abate. So this evening we got steroids to help stop the itching. He has been slowly improving since the flea treatment. The steroids will hopefully clear up the itching very quickly.
The locomotive of freight train number T 7012 has broken down, so its brother is coming to give a hand. Here the locomotive is waiting at the Kuopio railway station, where a journalist came to give the engineer an interview.
Two class Dv12 diesel locomotives from Siilinjärvi to Pieksämäki just went trought railway tunnel of Pieni Neulamäki.
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.

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 the Vets. As we passed on our walk today she wanted to go in, but we had an appointment for tomorrow just to check that the ulcer on her eye is healing. After we got home she scratched the contact lens & so she got her way & we went to the Vet today. Fortunately it looks like the ulcer has healed & the contact lens is no longer needed. And Etta had treats & pats.

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.
