Yep, says it all, especially in this day and age. It seems our rights and liberties are under attack….many photographers these days face stiff questioning from authorities whom have actually no right to do so, in asking us what it is we are photographing, for whom, and why we are. We are stopped, looked at, observed, harassed, detained, questioned, arrested, cited for laws which don’t exist, when all we want to do is capture something we see beautiful. All because many of us are thought to be terrorists….now you can show em exactly what ya think with this shirt!

Most raptors suffer from repeated harassment from crows,ravens, and in this case, – a magpie.

This was taken at Cape Cross along the Skeleton Coast in Namibia. / There are about 100,000 Fur Seals here making it possibly the smelliest place on earth. The seals feed on the rich fish stocks created by the cold Benguela current and amongst the colony run Blackbacked Jackals and rare endangered Brown Hyenas. / The Jackals prey on weak seals, pups and placenta. They converge on potential prey but are usually seen off by the aggressive seal bulls – as seen here. / The jackals persist and usually get their meal but not always and can be injured in the process.

I have been forced to move out of my flats by my neighbours. They are lying, horrible people. I asked them to stop swearing and yelling outside my door. They were bullies telling me I had to get everything passed by them & real estate agents but they took over where I was going to put my veggie garden. Their visitors turned out my pot plant and they parked their work van so I couldn’t access my car port. They rallied the other neighbours against me and would give me insulting gestures in the street. When I wrote to the real estate agent with all my complaints they became more nasty, abusing me through my door. They complained to the landlord about my art work, my cats and that I had lied about their abuse. They got so agro they got the police in twice saying I had lied, they had twisted everything. It was so surreal and bizarre. The real estate agent said I couldn’t go to the owners because he agreed to the cats but not them. I got a comment from red bubble saying in was a class thing. They were definitely from the wrong side of the tracks. While all this was happening I was having lovely university student models coming to my flat to draw for red bubble Drawing Day. They made me feel calm even though their was conflict in the air. They were gentle and posed and liked my art work on red bubble. The images I called “escape” had a hidden message that I wwasn’t aware of at the time. I’ve only been here 6 months, the shortest rental I’ve ever had. I haven’t lived in a place for less than 2 years. I had no idea at the time that I would be the one escaping. That the hostile neighbours would be the ones I had to escape from. I thought the real estate agent would get rid of them not suggest I move. What a shock however I have thinking. People have been commenting on my fairy photographs and I have written a fairy poem. One of the intelligent models loved the happiness of the fairies in my photographs. I’m thinking why don’t I rent a house near the university and decorate it as a fairy house and invite renting students from the university who need to escape into a kinder, prettier world than the suburbs. Have a garden so I can play with my new camera and my house mates as fairies in the garden. I think this could be a wonderful idea and I have been interneting real estate agents tonight.

The crow, which has a nest nearby, is trying to get the bald eagle to move on. The bald eagle is not very happy about being harrassed and is announcing his displeasure strongly enough to attract me with my camera. I captured this image on Willow Creek, in Campbell River, British Columbia. Technical: Nikon D300 camera body, with 200-400 mm F/4 lens, on a monopod, 1/1000 sec. at f10.

A common sight everywhere in sub-Saharan Africa, the huge Marabou Stork is both a scavenger and a predator. This one is harassing a much smaller Yellow-Billed Stork in the South Luangwa River – Zambia.

Most gulls, particularly Larus species, are ground nesting carnivores, which will take live food or scavenge opportunistically. The live food often includes crabs and small fish. Apart from the kittiwakes, gulls are typically coastal or inland species, rarely venturing far out to sea. The large species take up to four years to attain full adult plumage, but two years is typical for small gulls. Gulls nest in large, densely packed, and noisy colonies. They lay two to three speckled eggs in nests composed of vegetation. The young are precocial, being born with dark mottled down, and mobile from birth. Gulls—the larger species in particular—are resourceful and highly intelligent birds, demonstrating complex methods of communication and a highly developed social structure; for example, many gull colonies display mobbing behaviour, attacking and harassing would-be predators and other intruders.In addition, certain species have exhibited tool use behaviour. Many species of gull have learned to coexist successfully with humans and have thrived in human habitats. Others rely on kleptoparasitism to get their food. The urban gull population in the United Kingdom has been growing quickly, probably due to laws such as the Clean Air Act 1956 which prohibited the burning of garbage by local landfill owners, thus increasing the availability of food for the gulls

The Tao of Living Honestly
by ArlettaThen, kindly, either go away all together; or ,stop playing games and just be yourself!
Critique, detailed critique, is very welcome as this started out as a journal entry. I decided to make it a written piece, instead, and, for hat, I need to know how much sense it makes to others who don’t know the background story. Should I include more of it, or less of it? More humor,or less humor? Or, whatever you feel is important in that way. Always, always I am concerned for punctuation, spelling, and grammar, as well. Thank you, in advance.

Simple, straightforward, to the point. One too many “what are you doing with that camera” remarks prompted me to make one of these at home. I’ve decided to make it available to anyone else who is sick of getting lectured on their terrorist activities. When we’re afraid to take pictures, and the authorities are afraid of anyone with a camera, the terrorists have won. Also, print a few of these out and keep them in your camera bag. http://www.krages.com/phoright.htm

I am currently being harassed via Bubblemail by someone I do not know, for something I had nothing to do with, regarding a group that I don’t belong to. How’s that for weird? That was the FFS! part of the Title. Houses: We have been looking for a place to live for various reasons, various person in various combinations, for months. I have found what is now my dream home. Took some pictures of it, too, which I am trying to decide if I should call artwork, as some of them are at most becoming angles and all. I am so in love with the place and it is a good investment opportunity, and all; but, alas, they want cash and I haven’t that kind of cash. Can I have your cash? I promise to be good to it and use it wisely! Really, anything would do. A penny? A thousand dollars? Please? lol Come to think of it, if I upload the images to Facebook, I can, at least, share them on here as part of my journal. Then you would know the awesomeness that is my house, and, yet, most of you would be too far away to figure out how to find it! If you buy my house, I will kick you! Unless you buy it for me, of course! It is entirely the sort of house where an artist should live, of a certain variety. Not of the clean-lined Asian variety, and not of the tropical hut variety, or the loft variety, all of which are good types too, but, of the old, small but somehow rambling, ethnically hispanic variety. I suppose, eventually, I’d have to de-Catholicify it, somewhat. Not so much the tile crosses, which, to me, are just an interesting shape, but, the actual saints on some of the tiles might need to go. Men: Speaking of Catholics .. Eugene is a Catholic, and an Irishman, and he called me today. He has a gorgeous, gorgeous voice and he likes mine as well. Also, he is the sort of man who is intelligent, and apparently is comfortable with being a man, so he seems a bit dominant but not in that creepy, talking down to women, sort of way. The problem with Eugene, besides that he is a Catholic and I am not, is that he wants me to be a Catholic. This could lead to trouble, as, eventually, he might push the issue and I might say something highly inappropriate about Catholicism, that I would never say under other circumstances, that may or may not involve where he can shove his own head, and, that would just not be good. It is not because I secretly feel that way and would be expressing my true nature, by the way; it is that, how strongly I feel about something being not for me is directly proportionate to how much someone is trying to force me into it. Someone who goes off and is Catholic on their own time? Well, that’s their business. Someone who wants to get married in a Catholic church and tries to force me to take communion? Haahhahah! They better be ready for black eyes and dirty words, that’s all! Stuart is also a Catholic. He’s the Scotsman that you’ve heard so much about. The thing about Stuart is that, if he has any feelings about me being a Catholic, or himself being one, he’s never let on. So, I don’t think of him as a Catholic, I just .. well .. think of him. Then I try not to think of him, and then I cry. I am very confused about Stuart. Augy is an agnostic Jew. Augy confuses me. However, he, to the best of my knowledge, has no intention of trying to force me to be an agnostic, or an atheist as he is also, or a politico, or a Jew. He just wants me to call him, sometimes. We were discussing setting up house together, but, only for the sake of sharing bills and being able to write together, but, I’m not sure 1) If it could happen 2) if it should happen. It might be that those days are over, for us. A sad thought, indeed! Now, if you have a problem with anything I said in this journal, and you are not one of the great Red Bubble owners/moderators that be, do not write me a bubblemail about it. In fact, first, I would suggest that you read it over again, as nothing in it was meant to be offensive, but, was meant to be more prattling and entertaining, a bit tongue in cheek and naively naughty, etc. Humorous, of a type, in other words, comedic, and etc. So, read it with your sense of humor on! Then, feel free to comment here. However, do not feel free to comment on the situation regarding the person that is harassing me, whether you are that person or the person who posted he original journal that I commented on that sparked that harassment or one of the other 300 people or so that are also getting, or likely to be, harassed by the same person. I did not post that part to spark comments or debates or, especially, bubblemails. Just saying it, because it’s a part of my life, what’s going on, and what will influence me for having entered into my sphere of existence. Thank you for understanding.

OIL PAINTING – INVERSION / Image Copyright © 2008 JANE À PARIS / Professionally photographed by Citizens Photo TUNA FISH!!! Description: This is just about relationships, the good and bad of them.
