Smile Please by Anthony Hedger

I was just having some ‘ME’ time again and playing around in Photoshop Elements 7 So, there I was the other day having a walk up at the Forty Hall Estate which is in Enfield, England and I came face to face with a budding squirrel paparazzi photographer. I did laugh because he looked as though he was straight out of the Nikon College for paparazzi beginners. He took a few quick shots of me before realising I was nobody special and of no particular importance before rushing off to shoot a couple who looked a little like Brad Squid and Angelina Pony. Well his loss eh? LOL I hope you like the photo and thank you so much for viewing my work, please call back again soon.

Heart of the Jackal by rodeorose

FEATURED OCT 2009 PEACE LOVE & TRANQUILITY “THE JACKAL’S HEART NOT TO BE EATEN” / (I was not ready for the path this photo opportunity would lead me down, but here it goes, and I hope you enjoy this as much as I have!) / The vision of these cute little jackal pup brothers, curled up like this to form a heart, has led me to an enjoyable path of reflection, which even synchronized with Sharon Mau’s beautiful and inspiring posting this afternoon. Sharon’s link guided me to the African sacred text which explains why children should never be fed the heart fo a jackal, for fear of imbuing them with the cowardly traits a jackal is known by. The verse advises instead on the values of feeding children with leopard hearts, and hence feeding them with the leopard’s courage. / / There is much wisdom in this Ancient metaphor for parents and all of us to reflect, on how we prepare our children ( and also the child in ourselves day-to-day) for life’s jungle, and which traits we look to strengthen and which to overcome. The origins of the word Courage itself is something I love to reflect on: / “The word was carried across the English channel in 1066 by those brave Normans who planned to take over with William as a new king, deposing Harold II. / They did it too, installing courage as a new word taking over from an Old English word ellen. This new French interloper word arrived with more meanings than just “bravery”—the one we give it now. The root of the word courage is cour the French word for “heart.” The idea that our emotions originate in our hearts goes back at least 2500 years and one of the earliest books to make this connection was something called On The Sacred Disease about epilepsy written by followers of Hippocrates. At first in English the word courage had meanings extending to all sorts of feelings one might attribute to one’s heart: thoughts, feelings desires and passions; gentle, sexual, and violent. It was in the 1300s thatcourage began to make it into print as an English word and it did so with those many different senses of emotion. Over the centuries all those other meanings fell away. Before French, courage came from Latin and before that the cour part points back to an Indo-European kerd meaning “heart.” There is still enough similarity between this Indo-European kerden and the Old English heorte that you can see that the Indo-European root actually did percolate up into both Latin and Germanic languages.” (from the provided link above) The more I reflect on it, the more I can *visualize my heart grow larger to empower my commitment to all that I believe in and stand for. I welcome your comments and reflections about courage, and I hope you like this shot :), though I can’t make up my mind whether to stay color(above left) , or focal color (above). This was shot at a Zoo.

Rottweiler Sled team by taiche

Find here a selection of Greeting Cards. / The perfect card for any occasion. The Rottweiler is a dog of many talents: he’s rough and tumble, ready for anything; easy to train, if treated with respect and consistency; loyal and protective, at times to a fault; strong, yet gentle; aloof and dignified with strangers and playful and loving to his family. In short, the Rottie is the typical “tough guy with a heart of gold.” This steadfast canine soldier developed from the Molossus dog of Italy, a Mastiff-type dog bred to fight lions in Roman amphitheaters and serve the army in its campaigns. The progenitors of the Rottie traveled with the conquerors, driving and protecting cattle that fed the warriors on their long and arduous treks through inhospitable terrain. Dogs often stayed behind as the armies pressed on, breeding with the native canines and producing working dogs suited to particular climates, conditions, and occupations. The Romans crossed the Alps into southern Germany in the First Century on the road to conquering all of Europe. The Romans established the town of Arae Flaviae as a fortified cultural and administrative center. The red-tiled roofs of the most important buildings gave the village its German name, Rottwil (red villa), later changed to Rottweil. The town grew in importance, and by the Middle Ages, it was a bustling center of commerce and justice. Cattlemen used the descendants of the Roman dogs to bring the herds to the butcher for sale and to guard their purses of money on the way home, and the butchers in turn used the dogs to pull the carts carrying the meat. The butchers developed a larger strain of dogs for draft work, but it is the smaller herding-type Rottweilers that are most popular today.
