Pits & Perception

Image by puck90
Artist & Best Friends Animal Sanctuary founder, Cyrus Mejia's show Pits & Perception opened in Los Angeles @ Artology 101 in Glendale. There were several live pit bulls in attendance at the festivities.

From cyrusmejia.com/art/pits-and-perception

"Art can present us with a different view, a new perspective, another way of thinking about things. In this series of paintings of Pit Bulls I’m challenging the current-day perception of these dogs. Not by changing their image, but by depicting them close-up, larger than life, and inviting the viewer to question how they see and perceive Pit Bulls."

Because when you need a friend ...
animal friends
Image by KendraMillerPhotography
He'll always have your back ...

And I've been loved and I've been used
Cut wide open, scarred and bruised
I'm unbreakable ...
Flesh, it heals I know
Hearts, they never mend
Lovers come and go
Right now I need a friend ...

Not a technically great photo but I needed to feel lifted and puppies do that for me :3 My stuff is here on my FB page.

Libelloides coccajus
photos of animals
Image by Max.Bth
Un Ascalaphe soufré (Libelloides coccajus), Toulouse (31).

"Les Ascalaphes sont apparentés à l’ordre des Neuroptères (ou Névroptères Planipennes), comme les fourmilions et les chrysopes en raison des caractéristiques de l'appareil buccal des larves et de leurs ailes membraneuses armées de fortes nervures. Il existe 300 espèces d’Ascalaphidés dans le monde, 11 seulement résident dans la France méridionale et 3 autres ne sont pas clairement confirmées.

Leur aspect peut être considéré comme intermédiaire entre des Libellules et des Papillons, ce qui leur donne un charme tout particulier."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(En) "Owlflies are dragonfly-like insects with large bulging eyes and long knobbed antennae. They are not true flies, but rather neuropterans in the family Ascalaphidae, and as such are not closely related to the true flies at all; to the dragonflies and damselflies, they are even more distantly related.

Owlflies are readily distinguished from dragonflies because the latter have short bristle-like antennae. The closely related ant-lions, family Myrmeleontidae, have short, clubbed antennae, smaller eyes, and very different wing venation[1]. The sole living member of the subfamily Albardiinae, the Brazilian Albardia furcata, also has short, clubbed antennae, but its typical reticulate ascalaphid wing venation demonstrates its actual relationships."

Image by Iria Rodríguez
Esta raza tipo spitz puede ser originaria de Siberia o Mongolia. Era guardián de los templos y perro de trineo, más tarde se convirtió en el perro de caza preferido de los emperadores chinos.

Los chow chow tienen la lengua negra azulada y patas traseras casi rectas, por lo que parece estar siempre inclinado. Su pelaje se puede encontrar en negro, rojo, gamuza, crema, azul o blanco uniforme, a veces con manchas más claros u oscuros, pero nunca multicolor. Su pelo llegar hacer a veces suave. Tiene orejas pequeñas y redondeadas, y un collarín en la parte posterior de la cabeza, lo que le da aspecto de león.

Esta raza es inteligente, pero difícil de entrenar. Excelente guardián, es orgulloso sospecha de los extraños. Llega a ser territorial, si se le provoca puede ser un luchador sangriento.

This race spitz type can be native to Siberia or Mongolia. It was guardian of the temple and dog sled, later became the favorite hunting dog of the Chinese emperors.

The chow chow are bluish black tongue and hind legs almost straight, it always seems to be tilted. Their fur can be found in black, red, suede, cream, blue or white uniform, sometimes with clear or dark spots, but never multicolored. Her hair sometimes do get soft.Have small and rounded ears and a collar on the back of the head, which gives aspect of lion.

This race is smart, but difficult to train. Excellent guardian, is proud suspicion of outsiders. It becomes territorial, if he causes a fighter can be bloody.

* Threats: Caught in fishing nets, human disturbance, and being tangled in marine pollution
* The flukes (tails) have a distinct pattern on the underside, much like our fingerprints
* The humpback whale breaches more frequently than other baleen whales
* The Pacific humpback's pectoral fins are white underneath & black on top..
* The Atlantic humpback's pectoral fins are white on both sides- which makes it easier for us to see them
* While in their breeding grounds- the whales do NOT eat!
* Some humpbacks feed in the Southern Ocean and go north to their reproductive areas!
* Can stay underwater for 30 minutes but often dives for much shorter periods of time, usually 5 to 10 minutes
* Humpbacks emit high frequency "clicks" reaching 30,000 Hz
* The males produce, in frequencies between 20 and 9,000 Hz, songs that are the longest and the most varied in all the animal kingdom, with repeated sequences about 15 minutes long
* When they are in cold waters, the humpback whale eats 2 tons of fish and planktonic crustaceans a day, in 2 to 4 meals

Killer
all about animals
Image by Mark Grealish
For Michelle and Gabi, I promised you a photo from the new camera and a photo of the cat, respectively. :)

This is the beautiful calico who rules our home, Killer. She's afflicted with feline ADD, as she's hyperactive, needy and destructive, all the while being sickeningly cute. Rumor has it she's is telepathically controlled by an insane German woman as right before I took this photo, she found the camera sitting on my bed, put the strap in her mouth and took off at 90 miles an hour. Wench.

I'm very impressed with my new camera, for the quality of the photo, especially as I was using the flash from about two feet away from her. With my compact, she would be a washed out glare due to her whiteness. I guess there's something to be said for raw as well as the original photo is spectacularly detailed.

On 20 Jan, near the Oso Bay Turnaround in Flour Bluff, I came across a few Turkey Vultures eating something, which turned out to be a sea turtle of some type. I'm uploading these for the Turtle Lab at Padre Island National Seashore. -- Many of these were taken with a spotting scope that I had just obtained and was still learning how to use, so they've been sharpened significantly in post-processing.

Hi, my name is Lauren. My fiance Jake and I adopted a kitten from the Greece Ridge Mall location about a month ago. The lady who was working there told us that they love having pictures sent to them of the kitties to see how they're doing. She was so nice and helpful and I wanted to send them pictures.

This is Lucy (formally known as Aria), now almost four months old. She's a little furball of energy and is getting along very well with our other cat. They have become best friends and cuddle buddies.

I like to get shots of spiders in my hand. This one did not like my hand.

Whenever I scooped him up and dumped him in my palm, he would immediately jump off. If I dumped him on the counter, he did not have the same reaction. I guess the other explanation is that he really liked my kitchen counter.
