FEATURED IN ALASKABEYOND YOUR DREAMS, JANUARY 2009 / FEATURED IN RIGHT WING VALUES AND AMERICAN ART GROUP ON 2-13-2009 PHOTO BY DEB Camera: Sony A900; F-Stop: f/2.8; Exposure: 1/250 sec.; ISO Speed: 200; Focal Length: 200mm. This photo is dedicated to Jean Keene, better known as the Eagle Lady of Homer Spit, Alaska. Jean passed away last night January 13th, 2009 of natural causes. We will miss her and we’re so glad that we got to spend a little time with her when we were recently down in Homer to photograph the Eagles. She was a wonderful lady who lived a modest life and gave all she had for her precious birds, big or small. Thanks for all the wonderful memories that you provided so many people, including myself and our two kids….when you came over to our camper one evening to ask Rick if we would be interested in feeding your Eagles in the morning as you had to go into work earlier and you were worried about missing your 5AM feeding, what an overwhelming rush it was for myself, my daughter Steph and son Ricky to be out there with all your beloved Eagles tossing fish, and watching them swoop and grab that hunk of fish, it’s a memory that I will always treasure, so SOAR HIGH AND FREE JEAN and THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH....We will miss you. ~Deb

Fractal Explorer. General Phoenix II formula. I seem to have abandoned Talis, but I’ll be back:-) A Soft Keening. A strong north westerly was blowing hard, whipping up spume from the sea and hurling it along the beach like the furies as we fought our way up the dunes, gripping tight the tufts of marron grass to help us upward. Two strides forward, slip one back, eventually reaching the brow. Alice’s cottage on our right, facing south east, built so many years ago by loving hands, of cobbles gleaned from the seashore, bound with lime mortar. The roof, sagging now and dressed in mosses that clung tight in their battle with the elements. Two tiny mullioned windows and a small oak door. The sand dunes were hugging and absorbing the little cottage as though reclaiming what was rightfully theirs. / What was all the fuss about, I wondered – she had lived a lonely life, foraging for driftwood, living off the sea and the odd rabbit. Had she been lonely? The sun danced off the windows and our eyes followed a rainbow shaft to the door knob. A few sharp pushes and the door partially opened inward, scraping heavily on the build up of sand. / To be continued.

FEATURED IN ‘ALL THAT IS NATURE’ IN JANUARY 2009. THANK YOU!! PHOTO BY DEB Camera: Sony A900; F-Stop: f/4; Exposure: 1/320 sec.; ISO Speed: 200; Focal Length: 200mm. In Memory of Jean Keene aka ‘The Eagle Lady’ of Homer, Alaska I took this photo on 1-8-2009 while we were down in Homer visiting with Jean and her Eagles of Kachemak Bay. On 1-14-2009 while watching the news I learned that Jean had passed away the evening before, with many friends at her side and one of her beloved Eagles perched outside her home. She was one Spunky Lady who’s only thoughts were always of her Eagles and making sure they would be cared for. SOAR FREE JEAN /

PHOTO BY DEB Camera: Sony A900; F-Stop: f/3.2; Exposure: 1/320 sec.; ISO Speed: 200; Focal Length: 200mm. Jean lived in an old motorhome for many years in a campground on Homer Spit with a small yard that was always adorned with fish nets, sea shells, fishing floats, driftwood, and birdhouses, since coming to Alaska in the spring of1977. Jean came to Alaska from Minnesota, she was a stunt rider with the Red River Rodeo, during a show in Detroit, Michigan while Jean was performing one of her dangerous stunts on horseback called “death drag,” she leaned back in the saddle a little too far missing a critical hand hold and she tumbled backward off her horse and slammed her head against the arena wall, to make things worse her right foot was caught in the stirrup and she was dragged upside down behind her horse, her knee ended up being broken in 15 places, thus ending her rodeo career. She was always a lover of all animals, and one day she noticed two Bald Eagles near her compound and wondered if they were in need of food. She worked at a fish processing facility back then so she decided to bring home some scraps of salmon, halibut, cod and herring, the next morning there were the two Eagles…by the end of that first winter she had about a dozen Eagles that she was feeding, and then there were hundreds of them. Go gather with your Eagles Jean, they are waiting to take you under their wings.

The looks on the penguins just amuses me, I noticed they have been observing us just as we humans have been observing them. They seem to be a very curious lot of birds. Out of these 7 penguins, did you realise that there’s one penguin which is unlike the rest? :D /

Black Leopard. A black leopard is simply a dark leopard, If you look closely when the light hits his coat just right, you can see the faint outline of spots in the black leopard’s dark fur. Makes a great card. Be sure to check out these other wild cat images:

This photo was taken at the Minnesota Zoo in Apple Valley, Minnesota. It was getting later in the afternoon and the tigers were keeping their distance. I slapped on the Tamron 200-500mm and brought her in at about 400mm. I did have to move up to an ISO of 800 which has brought forth a small amount of grain. Please View Larger

The term banshee is an anglicization of the Irish bean sídhe or bean sí, or the Scots Gaelic bean shìth, – both meaning “woman of the fairy mounds” or “woman of peace”. Both names are derived from the Old Irish ben sídhe: bean: “woman”, and sídhe: “of the mounds” / In Irish legend, a banshee wails around a house if someone in the house is about to die. There are particular families who are believed to have banshees attached to them, and whose cries herald the death of a member of that family. Traditionally, when a citizen of an Irish village died, a woman would sing a lament (in Irish: caoineadh, [ˈkiːnʲə] or [ˈkiːnʲuː], “caoin” meaning “to weep, to wail”) at their funeral. These women singers are sometimes referred to as “keeners” and the best keeners would be in much demand. Legend has it that, for five great Gaelic families: the O’Gradys, the O’Neills, the O’Briens, the O’Connors, and the Kavanaghs, the lament would be sung by a fairy woman; having foresight, she would sing the lament when a family member died, even if the person had died far away and news of their death had not yet come, so that the wailing of the banshee was the first warning the household had of the death.
