Hiamoa iki Kaukini by Sharon Mau
Hiamoa iki Kaukini / Kahakuloa Maui Hawai’i Copyright © Sharon Mau 2009 / All Rights Reserved “The fish is a very powerful and positive image in many world traditions. 1. To the Babylonians, Phoenicians, and Assyrians, it was honoured as a symbol of fertility. 2. In Native American tradition, the fish is a symbol for mystical secrets, for it can swim to the deepest regions of the ocean and explore its hidden knowledge. 3. In British lore, it was believed that eating fish before lovemaking could enable a couple to conceive a child. 4. The early Christians used the fish as the symbol for the Christ Consciousness. It was widely believed that this symbol resulted from the Greek acronym for \”Jesus Christ, Son of God.\” But there is also the fact that the coming of Jesus ushered in the Age of Pisces the Fish, which encapsulates the mysticism, love, and happiness to which all world traditions ascribe to the fish. 5. In Scandinavia, fish was considered an aphrodisiac, and was popularly consumed on Friday, the feast day of Freya, Goddess of Love – and in her honour Friday was a day dedicated to lovemaking. There are, therefore, many possibilities if you dream of a fish – all good, even if the fish was a greatly feared one like the Shark [a powerful Hawaiian Aumakua]. If there is a possibility of a pregnancy, dreaming of a fish could mean that a child is on the way, and the pregnancy and birth will be uneventful and result in a healthy baby. If the dreamer is in love but is not yet sure about the beloved’s feelings, dreaming of a fish strongly indicates that the feelings are indeed reciprocated. Dreaming of catching fish, either with a pole or with a net, indicates success and prosperity ahead. Seeing fish swimming in a clear pool indicates that a number of secrets about yourself and the world around you are going to suddenly become clearer.” Information Source from MSN Free Dream Dicitonary Astrocenter Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi

Tufted Puffin by Rick & Deb Larson
FEATURED IN AMERICAS ~ RURAL, URBAN, WILD, FREE ON 7-05-2009. PHOTO BY DEB Camera: SONY A900; f/6.3; 1/500 sec.; ISO-200; 360 mm. AS IS from camera other then CROPPING. Taken on 6-25-2009. Rick’s cousin Carol had an Alaskan Bucket List which included puffins, so Rick decided that we would take the boat down to Homer and take a day trip out into Kachamak Bay, do a little clamming for some steamers and some seabird watching around a seabird rookery. We happened upon this Tufted Puffin on our way into China Poot Bay (where we were going to dig for clams), he was so engrossed in his preening that we were able to get pretty close to him without his flying off….Carol was pretty excited that she was able to check something else off her list. Tufted Puffin (Fratercula cirrhata), a medium sized, massive billed seabird, found all along the Pacific coast of North America, spends the winter out at sea, summer months it nests in large colonies on vertical sea cliffs, adult has a big rounded head on a short neck, a stubby body with large red webbed feet, and a thick orange-red parrot like bill, the breeding adult is overall black, with a white face, and a long drooping yellow tuft behind the eye, it dives for fish, and also eats mollusks and crustaceans, it is a sociable bird and is often found with other sea birds.

Pikes Peak or Bust Rodeo 1 by Lori Peters
I had never been to a professional rodeo so I was very excited. I grabbed my camera, lens, money, credit card, tickets, driver’s license. and a memory card. I got to the rodeo which was a 40 minute drive and realized that I had forgotten one thing, the battery for my DSLR. I was so disappointed but decided to make the best of it. I took these pictures with a cheap Samsung digital canera that just happened to be in the car. I had a great time despite rain, hail and lightning. The first contestant was from Queensland, Australia. I thought that was so cool.

Jared Shed by Joe Powell
This shed sets on the Jared Homestead 1916-1925, not sure what it was used for. Asking some locals they was not for sure, maybe animals. My guess is with the small man door and the large overhang in front and back it was a living area before the log home. Taken on the Colville Indian Reservation Washington State. / JARED HOMESTEAD / / FRAMED PRINT / / GREETING CARD /
