Hi Guys! I been working a lot so I have been around much...so here's the first of my zoo trips... Branche walking his kingdom... Beautiful little Glenda... And her mom Rapunzel... First capture of a very shy Mandrill... She a relatively new female and she been hiding. We're hoping for little Mandrills come Spring... Drape yourself with jewels... Have a sip...and relax you're at the Zoo the only place you'll find... Rare SoCal Mist Trees...
Comment welcome!

I have a lot of pictures so I'll keep this short. I shot in B&W most of the day because I had my contacts in and I couldn't see the screen to change it. All of my friends were no help...I think it worked out ok... Indians weren't the only one who wore feathers... There were the Poles. Russian and German... And Spain The land down under... And Japan The blue... And the gray... Harsh reality of war... He ran from the other bunker...
All in all, it was a lovely weekend of mayhem!

We couldn't have had better weather for our Moment in Time: History of Battle. Here are a few of my favorite images...I have many more... BOOM! That was so loud! I couldn't cover my ears and shoot! Curiosity can be dangerous...or wonderful it depends on your heart... We welcome all, you should see some of the re-enacters when they come into our 20' tipi with wide eyes... They sell everything... A picture was all I needed...
Let me preface the next shots by telling you they were re-enacting the battle of Iwo Jima. They do use blanks, but they still fire a paper cartridge and they can hurt or kill you...So I would have helped the angry guy beat up the other guy if it came to that. At the time, using my 300mm it was a great photo...A gun went shot went right by his head...he was angry... But after he chased the guy with a machete...he was spent...

Going thru some of my pictures I came across some texture A new low in living brought to you by Hollywood, right SG... as I looked further I found this I think this qualifies as a pattern... so I kept on looking and then low and behold The only thing I think doesn't qualify for is texture... and still I kept looking till I found Giraffe baby butt shot, curls and all... Texture, pattern...I don't know about depth...you can go there...I'm not...
A little levity

It was a little bit less like walking on the sun (last week) out there...so I got up early and went to the zoo...Even early I could tell it wasn't going to be easy to find any one moving! But I since I was there...

The fossa was bad this week. He caught a skunk and dragged into he's cage to eat. Needless to say, this put him on the short list of bad actors.

She's the one on the right...
He's very protective of her...
He want to make sure she doesn't get away...
I thought his head was going to explode...He was licking and love biting her...constantly...

An inner peace about her...
After all that a snooze was all she wanted...another sleeping beauty...

I went to the Zoo before the heatwave struck and melted my shoe soles to the sidewalk...and I was in luck, the cubs weren't in the water so I got to spend some quality time with them!!!!!
It's a shame about those shoes...they were comfortable...got any ice?

For my birthday weekend we went, as usual, to the Hesperia Pow Wow. Posting pictures was a challenge...many wouldn't load at all...other's are out of order...oh well!
They had some new buildings that I'm not sure what they're going to be used for, but I'm pretty sure it will be Indian themed...
MMM...I love the smell of fresh sage in the morning
Swinging to beat of the drum...
And this is one of the reasons we came...the other one was was deep fried...
