Reflections in Dove Lake Cradle Mountain by cradlemountain

Spring 2009 / Cradle Mountain, to me, is the ultimate icon for Tasmania. / It is a Gondwanaland dreamtime full of interesting stories of the past. It is surrounded by ancient rainforests that hug the shores of Dove Lake which is situated on the north side of Cradle Mountain. / I have walked around this mountain several times a year for 19 years now and still have not discovered all it’s secrets. / The path, high up the mountain, has rocks with fossils from a time when the mountain was under the sea. It was once under ice and snow until the climate changed, the earth moved north and the tarns were carved out by the moving ice. / The mounds that surround the landscape on the way into Lake Dove are evidence of the melting glacier that dumped rock shingles that have been untouched for thousands of years. / The mounds are like bumps the size of a hills dotting the grassy plains. / I am always looking on the ground, thinking about myself and the mountain, and how I have ended up here loving every moment. Last time I was there, the mayflies came bursting out into the surrounding vegetation, such tiny creatures that will only live for a day. A memory that I always have is of a man on his tummy, looking into a magnifying glass and yelling with delight that he discovered a tiny weeny plant that had flowered on the day we arrived there. He belonged to a Tasmanian Native Plant Group and is passionate about the one day flower as he had been waiting for this moment for years. / The Cradle is a meeting point for the locals, travellers and the ancient spirits of the indigenous people who were often seen 100 years ago sitting on the rock that dominates the left side of the Lake. The last aboriginal lady was seen there sitting on this rock after travelling from the south, and never to be seen again. The sad history of the indigenous people only bring to mind the loss of most of the Tasmanian indigenous knowledge of the plants, animals and there way of life. / This place is secret to me and I will respect the time I am there and will continually learn from its environment. / So sad about climate change as already the tarns are losing water and the rainforest seems to be dieing from heat stress. http://www.apstas.com/gondwanatimeline.htm#GONDWANA
Light up the night! Glowing the balloons! by Linda Jackson

Green river music festival, at Greenfield, Massachusetts. / This fair came into being to increase tourism into Franklin County in the middle of the summer. Featured music artists, craft artisans, puppeteers, and of course the food vendors comprised the festival this year. / The attendees were not shy about getting in on the action! / I spotted Jugglers, acrobats, girls swaying with hulu hoops, even spontaneous music came out. / The morning showers cleared in time for a morning launch, but very overcast skies. The day was bright and sunny, then the clouds started coming back in for the evening launch. / After the flight the evening finished off with a balloon “glow” they count down and light up the night! / Everyone cheers, and no one wants the magic to end. / Wonderful New England Day! / Enjoy!

It is 4.5m tall and 2m diameter and is made of 316 grade stainless steel rod.] THE LOCATION: / Photographed at Cowarra Dam, between Port Macquarie and Wauchope, NSW, Australia. THE MAKING OF ‘The Drip #2’: / I was driving back home after a day trip into the country and as I neared the turn-off to the dam I realised I had not been there for well over a year. / As the late afternoon light of a winter day was painting everything in gold I was very interested in what it was doing at the dam. / Well now we both know! / Fuji S9600: RAW, Manual settings of f/3.6 @ 1/500sec, Exposure lock, Auto focus, ISO80, Hand held. / Lightroom 2.2 & Photoshop CS3.

A Lunch Counter in Greensboro by Cora Wandel

In 1960 four black college freshmen walked into a Woolworth store in Greensboro, North Carolina and quietly sat down at the lunch counter. They were refused service because of the color of their skin, but they refused to leave and stayed until closing time. The next morning they came back with twenty-five more students. On the third day the sit-in consisted of sixty-three students, and they were still refused service. On the following day three white female students joined them, and by the fifth day Woolworth had more than three hundred demonstrators at the store. The next day the company said they were willing to negotiate, but only token changes were made which further infuriated the students and the sit-ins resumed. The city of Greensboro retaliated by adopting more stringent segregation policies and forty-five students participating in the sit-ins were arrested and charged with trespassing. By this time the black population was so enraged they launched a massive boycott of stores with segregated lunch counters and sales dropped by a third, forcing the store owners to relent. Six months from the very first sit-in, the four freshmen who started it all returned to the Woolworth’s lunch counter and were finally served. This is a photograph of the four seats and the counter they sat at in the Woolworth store. It is on display at the National Museum of American History in Washington, D.C.

Dainty Damsel by Dennis Gay

THE SUBJECT: / The bulbous black eyes of a beautiful Austroargiolestes icteromelas (Common Flatwing) stare into the photographer’s lens. THE LOCATION: / This close-up was made along the boardwalk in the Kooloonbung Creek Nature Park in Port Macquarie, NSW, Australia on a very hot ‘n’ sticky late spring day. THE MAKING OF ‘Dainty Damsel’: / I was out on safari with a couple of Port Macquarie Panthers Camera Club mates when we entered a nice cool, wet and shady area of the park where to a background of frog choruses we spotted lots of Damselflies and Dragonflies zipping around. This lovely specimen stayed in one place long enough for me to draw a good photographical bead on it for a study shot. / I was using the 100-300 lens as we were likely to come across some bird life so getting used to shooting close-ups with this lens was still relatively new to me after years of using my Fuji S9600. / Canon EOS D60 & Canon Ultrasonic 100-300mm Lens#: RAW, 1/200sec @ f/11, 250mm, -1EV, ISO100, Auto focus, Hand held. / Lightroom 2.2 & Photoshop CS3.

Beauty of Maiko by Tatum Wulff

A beautiful Maiko walks to work, in the famous and historic Geisha district of Gion, Kyoto, Japan. I arrived in Gion only a few moments before seeing her and quickly took a few shots before an interested crowd appeared in the foreground of my viewfinder… I am quite happy with how this capture turned out, with a ‘natural’ blur which to me, offers an artistic feel. I also like the western style dressed woman in the top right behind her.. as an interesting contrast.. Maiko are apprenticing Geisha. Geisha are typically much older Maiko; and Geisha kimono are distinct from Maiko kimono. What does Geisha mean… Geisha translated to direct English is art person, or one could say, artist. / A Geisha is a traditional, female Japanese entertainer who is highly skilled in the classical Japanese arts. Her skills range from singing and performing traditional dance to playing classical musical instruments, such as the shamisen. / Moreover, her skill at the art of conversation is highly important and she therefore tends to have knowledge of historic and current events. Geisha are expected to create an atmosphere of relaxation and entertainment. Their gracious social etiquette skills are as impeccable as is their appearance and delicate demeanor.

Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King,Jr. by Dawn Meadows

Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King,Jr. Dr. King has a tear in his eye because he knows his dream is forfeited. Have you ever read his “I Have a Dream” speech? The most important idea he stressed was that a man should be judged by the content of his character not the color of his skin. His dream was that his children and grandchildren would live in a free America. He stated with faith we will be able to work together. Then the day will come, we will sing in unison “ My country tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee (God) we sing…Let freedom ring. / / What is happening is not his dream; he would be saddened to see what is going on. A man was elected president not on the content of his character. This is not what Rev. King’s dream was about. The man elected was not voted in on his good character. He spoke of change, and the change we are getting is not setting anyone free, but enslaving us all. He is doing this through socialist and communist agendas. / If a man is to be judged on the content of his character, he will bare good fruit. His friends will be honorable. This is not seen. He and the rest of the corrupt politicians are taking down our country to bankruptcy. All Americans will be enslaved. Only the elite, special interest and union leaders will live comfortable. We will be taxed to death and beaten into submission. I recommend you read Dr. King’s speech. Stand up for what he really believed in. / He believes in his heart that Jesus Christ is Lord, and that God raised him from the dead. He knows Jesus died for him, and anyone who believes will have eternal life. Dr. King knows God created all men equal. He knows through Jesus Christ that we have power and in Christ, we are truly free indeed.
