Island Resident

a1-3 Island Resident

While we were walking around Harbor Island one of the kids was always yelling at me “Hey! Take a picture of THIS!”

His favorite subject were the lizards that are everywhere.  They are cute little guys and so I did get a lot of practice taking photos of small animals.

The flash seems to help out a lot.

I Love Flickriver

This is one of those ruminating posts that I used to write all the time.  I have tried to be more focused and less prone to ruminating in the past six months but there comes a moment when you just can’t do what you are supposed to do.

You try and you try.  But at some point you just say “Forget It”.   It’s time to drift along with the current.  And Flickriver is there when I feel like doing this.  So many amazing photos.

Does somebody pick out the interesting photos that flow along this stream?  How does this work exactly?  I probably could look it up in Goog but I don’t feel like doing that.  It’s time to relax.  Maybe somebody could leave a comment and share some wisdom about Flickriver.

There’s an old saying that one picture is worth a thousand words. So we don’t need to say a lot about this one. Let’s just say that another communist nation managed to grab the headlines in a way that illustrates lack of respect for the rules.  Here’s Cuban Angel Matos reacting to his loss in a match where he stayed down on the mat more than one minute and was disqualified for taking too much injury time.

Apparently he started feeling better after just a little while and could have continued as he demonstrates in this photo.

Maybe he should not have been disqualified in the first place.  He could have protested after the match and taken things to a higher level.  But I don’t think that’s going to work now Angel.
