For NW addicts. Blackpool Promenade near North Pier on a sunny late afternoon, with the cenotaph at top left. Notice the strap attached to mum and baby. Sadly, this was shot in the immediate aftermath of the Jamie Bulger murder and mum had thought of the idea. Blackpool – My Birthplace

This female Northern Cardinal is a devoted, dutiful mother. Her eggs just hatched so now she’s extremely busy, not only sitting in the nest to keep them warm but also making numerous trips to hunt for food for her hungry babies. Father Cardinal does his part, supplying worms, grubs, caterpillars to both mother and children. It’s a joy watching the drama unfold from my little hiding place near the rose bush where the Cardinal family has set up housekeeping.
-
Before entering the nest, Mrs. Cardinal emits a series of clicks so she always alerts me to her approach. Camera, lights, action! I tried using flash but it was way too scary for her; now I stick to existing light so that limits my opportunities. The nest is in a rose bush and light filters through it sparingly sometimes. After she makes her approach, she checks on the chicks, sometimes giving them a bit to eat, and then settling down upon them to keep them warm. As they get more mature, I suspect she’ll spend less time in the nest and more time on the hunt. For the time being, Father Cardinal does most of the hunting; sometimes he hands her a morsel and sometimes she leaves the nest and he does the feeding. It’s a concerted effort, that’s for sure. Cardinals are especially endearing to me as they mate for life and are a symbol of fidelity. See my writings, the one about cardinals, and you’ll understand better why these birds are a real treasure to me. Hope you enjoy this series of life with the cardinals.

Just a bit of PS to turn this endearing image of the male cardinal feeding the female on the nest into a sweet dreamy image.

Why you don’t sit with us?? well thats fare enough I said, so I strolled to their tree, in that time I was allready covered in mozzie bites and my legs where itchy like $#@ but i had to ‘visit’ them too..The ladys in this group where pretty noisy and they wanted to dance..so i said if you wanna dance,well dance!! The left lady Margaret was realy nice and we had a lovely chat, the next day she came to my shop to ask me if i wanted to come again…I know that people will say ‘Oh yeah’ they just want something..well I can deal with that, they are people too!! and behind that misery and noice is also a ‘person’ thats what I’m trying to achive, to show that they are people too …..and behind there scars are stories,..many stories…..broome, behind liquorshop, May 2008

When I walked ‘in a straight’ line to the Broome “Oval” that day, the big sister of Rachel started talking to me straight away, i sat down on the grass next to her and she was ‘really’ interested in what i was doing on the Oval, cause no white people sit with them..I explained that i wanted to make people shots and my main focus is indeginous (do i spell that right?) people, purely because I love people with a dark skin color and i love there faces and just ‘different’ people, and that i one day would like to make a book about people, for people….and that if ‘anybody’ wants to share a storie that i’m very interested..they always ask me if a have husband and kids, and proudly i can say ..i’m also married with a blackfellow but he’s from different country, from Africa, Egypt…ahhh they say, thats good, and my kids ‘halfcast’, ..oh, you bring kids one day miss and your husband too….Broome, “Oval’ May 2008 Western Australia

Without this woman in my life i would not be as blessed as am i today to be a father, and even though i’ve battled through hardships, and tough times they are always there. well not all the time sometimes it’s like catching up to superstars for a autograph. She deserves alot of the credit for raising my son as a Presidential Award winner, a black belt in Japenese Okinowa Karate, and becoming so much of a gentleman

This 12 month calendar for 2009 takes one through the cycle of family life with the bluebirds. Starting with courtship and then working on to nest building, egg laying, incubation, feeding the nestlings, emergence of the fledglings, and the incessant labors of the parents, including diaper duty, this calendar offers a glimpse into the fascinating world of these little winged wonders called Sialia Sialis. Enjoy!

An impromtu portrait. I noticed Kieran and Brooke play fighting on my bed. The light was good, I raced for my trusty Olympus DSLR, came back, asked them to freeze, look at me and this is the resultant image with just a little enhancement in Photoshop.

Reloading this one due to absolutely no comments I don’t think its a horrible image so i’m not sure why no comments.. If its no good someone tell me lol The Canadian Pacific Railway has for the last ten years put on the Holiday Train. The train travels from coast to coast starting on the eastern coast and progressing to the western coast! The purpose of the trip is to collect non perishable items for the food banks! The show lasts for approximately 30 mins in each town, including a singing santa, and several rock and country stars. This is a shot of the train engine. I climbed up the hill with snow well past the tops of my hiking boots, proceeded to set up my tripod and camera right on the tracks. The engineer was aware of what i was doing. Normally you are not permitted on the tracks while the train is running but he permitted me to take some shots. It was -10 or so and very crisp out. I had to alternate between wearing gloves to keep my hands some what warm and taking them off to manipulate the camera.

I admire my mother so much and she has just returned from around the world trip at age 76. I have just emailed her a poem I wrote about her and my father (who died at 41 years old) as a present for her birthday. I feel that this is the right time to share this with her. As a tribute to my love and admiration of my Mother and the importance she plays in my life I would like to share the poem again and a few photos of her life with my friends on RedBubble. Happy Birthday to my beautiful mother Joy Rose Slade! Mother Her mind incisive and fast / Her strength a mountain / Courage her middle name and her last / She taught me so much / My mother pragmatic from the start / Me philosophical by heart / When as a child I asked her what I should do? / She said I have given you a good mind, / so think for yourself. Her intellect so penetrating / She bought her books of law / Although she never started / Her mind was insatiable / Always begging for more. / At school in her exams / She was the top 8 in her state / So clarified, so defined, articulate and wise. She was so pretty, her hair so golden / Her features fine / My mothers name is joy / She was the same by nature / She sang to me as a baby / A voice like an angel…even more / She read to me as a child / and taught me the love of words / She drew pretty ladies / and gave me the love of feminine grace / and a passion for art. (Thank you) Her love of my father was passionate and rare / Their charisma together burned on my memory / My father admired and loved her so… / Admiration was the first ingredient of their love / Their IQ was identical and it was high / His inner strength danced with her courage / as his masculine beauty complimented / her feminine grace…so divine. As a young child I witnessed their love / built on passion and respect / My dad held my sensitive heart / in his gentle hand… / My mother shaped my strength / My father taught me nurture / and unconditional love / My mother taught me to stand up / and to spread my creative and intellectual wings / She made me strong enough / so I could be sensitive always. She possessed that rare quality: Courage / My mother was never afraid / to stand up and speak her mind / Conformity was never her mode… / Pioneer, revolutionary was more in line / and gave this to me as a birthright. / She gave me permission to flourish in / my own sunshine and not be afraid to speak / Be different and explore and live true / to my inner voice, my inner knowing… In my early thirties I interviewed her for my / autobiography and my heart swelled with / Pride at the person she was, / the history, the story and the wisdom / she had lived and passed on. / She told me I was the sensitive one / and softness she knew needed / protection and so she challenged me to / strengthen my inside and taught / me that I must look after my inner child (my inner child still dances) My mother encouraged me to pursue an education / To question, to explore, to flourish / To push the boundaries of convention, / To disrupt the wrong and unjust / and to pass on my learning and wisdom / She taught me not to settle for mediocre / and strive and struggle to reach my potential. When she saw my art begin to blossom / and the words explode from my mind as / a teenager she did not try to stop / them or control them… / With pride in her heart she encouraged / me to follow my heart and my dream / She placed no limits or restrictions / on my imagination. Oh that I love her there can be no doubt / She was my role model of woman / and showed me the dynamic / and pure love of a woman for a man / and she chose a beauty in my father. / I admire and I adore her / Inside my heart I know she loves me too / And this is the foundation of my esteem / …a woman of intellect, brilliance and generosity / Joy so beautiful…Joy so wise Although we do not always see eye to eye / We can communicate, challenge and provoke / and reach a better place then we started / We question each other and then we take flight / I am thankful always to my mother she taught / me acceptance of difference encouraged me to / be a freethinker and a creative… / And she taught me the best you can be in life is / kind.

Heavily pregnant and carrying her youngest on her back, a Red Lahu women husks rice with the help of her three other children. The extra weight helps her press down on the heavy wooden pounder that smashes into a mortar full of unhusked rice. The pounding removes the inedible husks. She wields a stick to fend of chickens that feed on the stray grains. She husks, then winnows, rice for a couple of hours every day, usually in the morning or evening, and does enough to feed her family for a single day. During the daytime she often works in her fields. Some mothers give birth in their fields or by the path along the way. Before the availability of contraceptives, most women would have between five and fifteen children, many of whom would die in their first years of life. Taken in the early 1980s in a remote mountainous area north of Chiang Mai, Thailand.
