to scale_2
by K Y R S T I E kyle Photography

I wanted to show these little humming birds to scale, they are different than King Fisher’s, these are a bit smaller ;) the focus in this one is more on the bird… the other one if more on the leaf, yes it’s on purpose ;) thank you for anyone that looks, and for any critique or comment.. they are truly appreciated!! shot with Quantaray Telephoto lens from approx 3 or 4 ft away I did use auto levels to cut back on the gam, and sharpened it a bit… am no good with post processing, not much better at photography until I learn the in’s and outs, but most of the stuff I upload because of this fact is usually straight out of the camera. Could use help with post also ( hint,hint ) ;)
to scale
by K Y R S T I E kyle Photography

Again, with this one the focus is more on the leaf as I intended to show the bird “to scale” with the small leaves of the tree, it’s a Ficus tree. shot with Quantaray Telephoto lens from approx 3 or 4 ft away, using Macro extension to get me closer ( it’s a 1:2 ) that’s about all I know for now until I get more knowledge under my belt. I also used auto levels on this to cut on gam warning, and sharpened 1x. Any critique or comments are greatly appreciated!!

Lana Wood's Portait
by Giuseppe Lucano "Giluck"

Lana Wood (born Svetlana Zakharenko on March 1, 1946) is an American actress and producer. She was born to Russian émigré parents, Nikolai and Maria Zakharenko, and is the younger sister of actress Natalie Wood. She made her film debut in the classic John Wayne western The Searchers and was a regular on the soap opera Peyton Place. She is best known for her role as Plenty O’Toole in the James Bond film Diamonds Are Forever. Wood was born Svetlana Nikolaevna Zakharenko to Russian parents, but they grew up far from their homeland: her father lived in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, while her mother grew up in a Chinese province. After her parents were married, they settled in Santa Monica, California, where Lana was born. By this time her parents had legally changed their surname to Gurdin. Her older sister was actress Natalie Wood. They have a half-sister, Olga Viriapaeff, from their mother’s previous marriage. As a baby, Lana appeared in Driftwood (1947), but her scene was deleted from the final version of the film. Lana’s first credited film role was in the 1956 western classic The Searchers (1956), which starred John Wayne and also featured Lana’s sister Natalie. Their mother Maria had picked Natalie’s stage name (her real name was Natasha) after director Sam Wood. Maria was asked under what last name Lana should be credited, and Maria agreed it would be best if she could be credited as “Wood,” like her famous sister. As a child, she also made guest appearances in Playhouse 90 (1957), The Real McCoys (1958) and appeared in the film Marjorie Morningstar (1958). Early on in her adult career, Wood usually played bit parts in films Natalie appeared in. Starting in the 1960s, her own career landed off. One of her roles was in the beach party film The Girls on the Beach (1965). After appearing in the short-lived drama series The Long, Hot Summer, she landed in the role of Sandy Webber in the soap series Peyton Place. She played the role from 1966 to 1967. In 1970, Lana was approached to pose for Playboy by Hugh Hefner and agreed. The Playboy pictures appeared in the April 1971 issue, along with Wood’s poetry. Even though her sister strongly disapproved of Wood’s move to pose nude, the publicity was a major reason for her being cast as a Bond girl, Plenty O’Toole, in the 1971 James Bond film, Diamonds Are Forever, in which, in one scene with Sean Connery, she appeared wearing only a flimsy pair of see-through panties [1]. Wood has more than 20 other films and over 300 television shows to her credit, including The Fugitive, Bonanza, Mission: Impossible, Police Story, Starsky and Hutch, Fantasy Island and Capitol. Some of her other film roles have been in the Disney film Justin Morgan Had a Horse (1972) and the western Grayeagle (1977). After appearing in the horror film Demon Rage (1982), she retired from acting, concentrating on her career as a producer. In 1984, Wood published the controversial tell-all book Natalie, A Memoir by Her Sister, shortly after the death of her sister. The book reached #3 on the New York Times Bestseller List. In 2004, she produced the biopic The Mystery of Natalie Wood. She recently returned to acting and has several projects in production.Lana is a character in the new Steve Alten book”Meg:Hell’s Aquarium” Lana has married five times. She was briefly married at age 16 to Jack Wrather Jr. before their marriage was annulled. At age 18, she was briefly wed to Karl Brent. At age 21, she was briefly wed to Steve Oliver. Lana married a fourth time to Richard Smedley in 1973. They have a daughter, Evan Taylor Maldonado, born on August 11, 1974. In her memoir, Lana claims that Smedley hit her on occasions. They later divorced, and Wood married a fifth time to Alan Balter, whom she also divorced. Wood was romantically involved with actors Warren Beatty, Ryan O’Neal and Sean Connery. Wood’s memoir includes very in-depth, vividly detailed stories of her sexual encounters and affairs. On November 29, 1981, Wood’s sister Natalie drowned near Catalina Island under suspicious circumstances. Lana has said: “The person I loved more than anybody else, with the sole exception of my own daughter, is dead. I cry for her often. I expect I always will”. Later on, their mother Maria had alzheimer’s disease moved in with Lana and her family. Maria Gurdin died on January 6, 1998. Lana wrote a book about her experience with Maria which was not published. After Lana published her tell-all memoir Natalie: A Memoir by Her Sister, her former brother-in-law Robert Wagner broke off contact with Lana and her family. Wagner later married actress Jill St. John, who was a childhood friend of Natalie’s and co-starred with Lana in Diamonds Are Forever. In the spring of 2000, the women became involved in an altercation during a cover shoot for Vanity Fair featuring the Bond Girls. Lana cooperated with author Suzanne Finstad on her biography of Natalie, Natasha, in which Finstad suggests Wagner played a part in Natalie Wood’s death. Lana currently lives in Thousand Oaks, California. She has three grandchildren: grandsons Nicholas and Max, and a granddaughter, Daphne.

Pua Melia Ku'ulei Ha'iku Hawai'i Tropical Plumeria

All rights reserved Slight adjustments in Curves to reset the White Balance and a final adjustment in Contrast. “Plumeria, common name Frangipani; syn. Himatanthus Willd. ex Roem. & Schult.) is a small genus of 7-8 species native to tropical and subtropical Americas. The genus consists of mainly deciduous shrubs and trees. It produces flowers ranging from yellow to pink depending on form or cultivar. From Mexico and Central America, Plumeria has spread to all tropical areas of the world, especially Hawai`i, where it grows so abundantly that many people think that it is indigenous here. The genus, originally spelled Plumiera, is named in honour of the seventeenth-century French botanist Charles Plumier, who traveled to the New World documenting many plant and animal species. The common name “Frangipani” comes from an Italian noble family, a sixteenth-century marquess of which invented a plumeria-scented perfume. In Mexico, the Nahuatl (Aztec language) name for this plant is “cacalloxochitl” which means “crow flower.” It was used for many medicinal purposes such as salves and ointments. Depending on location, many other common names exist: “Kembang Kamboja” in Indonesia, “Temple Tree” or “Champa” in India, “Kalachuchi” in the Philippines, “Araliya” or “Pansal Mal” in Sri Lanka, “Champa” in Laos, “Lantom” or “Leelaawadee” in Thai. Many English speakers also simply use the generic name “plumeria”. In several Pacific islands, such as Tahiti, Fiji, Hawai`i, Tonga and the Cook Islands Plumeria is used for making leis. In modern Polynesian culture, it can be worn by women to indicate their relationship status – over the right ear if seeking a relationship, and over the left if taken. P. alba is the national flower of Nicaragua and Laos, where it is known under the local name “Sacuanjoche” (Nicaragua) and “Champa” (Laos). Information Source: Wikipedia The beautiful Plumeria comes in a wide variety of delightful colours and bloom virtually year round. Plumeria (Frangipani) also known as the Lei flower, is native to warm tropical areas of the Pacific Islands, Caribbean, South America and Mexico. Plumerias may grow to be large shrubs or even small trees in the Hawaiian Islands and in mild areas of the U.S on the mainland. In tropical regions, Plumeria may reach a height of 30’ to 40’ and half as wide. They have widely spaced thick succulent branches, round or pointed, long leather, fleshy leaves in clusters near the branch tips. Plumeria are true tropical flowering trees, also known as Frangipani or the Temple Tree, and the fragrant flowers are often used to make Hawaiian leis. They may be grown in containers, in the ground, or in containers sunk in the ground. During the months of active growth, ample sun, water and food are essential. Healthy plumeria will bloom regularly and abundantly when they receive at least 6 to 8 hours of full sun per day. They are heavy feeders and will bloom and grow vigorously with enough of the proper foods. Plumeria love lots of water, but cannot tolerate wet feet, so they must be planted in fast draining soil or in beds with adequate drainage. The fragrance is wonderful with hints of jasmine. This lovely beauty is blooming near Ha’aiku Maui Hawai’i. Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi

Possibly my favorite picture i’ve taken. Her face in this picture demands the focus of your eyes. The fog also brought this picture together so well to give of that eerie sense of fear and power all at the same time.
