*Outfit made of upcycled bicycle jerseys

Rialia grew up watching cycling on bunny TV and marveled at the exotic locales the pro peloton sped through. After studying management at Carrot University, Rialia found a job working for a professional team as a soigneur. She got to manage an entire team of riders, masseuses, chef and wrenches, plus she got to travel the world and watch cycling. But all of that traveling has made her sleepy, and now she wants a friend who is happy to enjoy some carrot juice and watch Phil Liggett announce stages on TV.

*Outfit made of upcycled bicycle jerseys

In one of the most challenging roles of anyone in the pro peloton, Miako works as a chef for some of the fastest riders in the world. Shopping for food and making huge meals to feed hungry, tired riders, he learned many years ago that when all else failed, he could just serve up Nutella, one of the world’s greatest foods. Miako knows that a small part of every yellow, polka dot, pink and green jersey was fueled by his potent recipes. He hopes to make a new friend who he can cook for…even if they are going to throw up on their own jersey.

____________________________________________________

Visiting Baker Beach.

While returning to the car, I passed near a seagull looked at me guiltily and then flew away. I was curious what it was looking at and noticed that it was a dead bird whose legs had been caught in some cloth flotsam and had been washed ashore.

This photo was taken handheld in aperture mode which was adjusted to have as much depth of field possible and still be well above the shake limit. The 14mm has no trouble focusing close but the dust on the lens left a lot of blemishes that appeared easily after post processing. I’m going to have to look into a good portable cleaning solution as the surface would take forever to clean with a LensPen. I remembered to bring my GPS with me (with batteries) so the location data is accurate (though I forgot to adjust my camera for daylight savings time so I had to shift things over 3600 seconds).

I used dodge and burn to try to reclaim some dynamic range in the overexposed background (burn) while getting some feather detail in shadow (dodge). The spot & patch algorithm was very poor for dust spots in the sand so I had to heal that (as well as lens dust) in Photoshop.

I used contrast color to get better separation between sand and sea, a bi-color to magnify that effect even more and “postcard” the image without messing with the saturation, and then bleach bypass and glow to create the otherworldly look around the dead bird. Most of these filters were not applied to the bird itself using a negative u-point.

I tested the new dodge and burn tool in Aperture 2.0.1 update. It worked very well, but I’m disappointed that it has to generate a TIFF file in order to work. It’d be nice if it used the RAW file and just stored sidecar files that had the masks. The weird thing is if you edit using an external editor and then edit in Photoshop, it loses the version with your dodge and burn edits. In fact, 2.0.1 and 2.0 before it has introduced many, many bugs involving preview generation and versioning. For instance, if you replace the PSD file or edit a PSD file that you’ve already commented, it will reimport the EXIF and IPTC information and smash all your edits in Aperture. Besides the fact that you can no longer use the PSD-replacement trick (to preserve metadata from external creation tools like PTMac and DxO Optics Pro via PSD generation), it destroys all your IPTC work you might have done before round tripping with Photoshop. That is stupid. Another example is preview generation on expanded canvases with a alpha channel that has been colored in are rendered transparent no matter what in the original and then exported as black. So effectively those parts of the image become unusable! (Workaround: save a copy as PSD with alpha unchecked and than overwrite the current PSD) WTF? I mean this stuff worked in Aperture 1.0. Apple has taken the common-sense way of handling versioning and trashed it in order to make room for the API which isn’t really ready yet. They could have done much better if they asked the service to generate previews and gave it the ability to store sidecars. This would be far more versatile than the current stuff which is no better than Photoshop at this point (though the RAW rendering support will be change that for us DxO Optics Pro users). There is no need to actually save the rendered TIFFs—and why TIFF anyway? Those files are huge. Why not store losslessly compressed JPEG2000s are 1/2 the size of TIFFs for photos).

By the way Aperture 2.0 lost support of JPEG2000. (It was buggy in Aperture 1.0). That’s bad because I save my scanner output as high quality JPEG2000’s since they have 48bit dynamic range and yet are about 1/20 the size of a TIFF with almost no noticeable loss in quality. Support all Quicktime-compatible image formats for import! This is why I buy expensive computers, Apple. (Thumbnails should still be JFIF (JPEG) simply because the algorithm for working with JPEG2000’s seems a bit slow even on a fast computer.)

When I do a lot of Photoshop and Aperture 2.0 work, the hard drive starts swapping in a bad way and won’t stop. Very frustrating. What should have been a 15 minute postprocessing ended up wasting 3 hours because of bugs in Aperture and swap.

Finally, I decided not to provide the full resolution versions of the images and added a border around the image (but no watermark). This should still be good enough, if not better, for use under the Creative Commons in websites and blogs, but if you need a print-quality (larger than postcard size) version of the photo, this way you’ll have to contact me for the image. The border design and information is a rip-off of various parts from my favorite photographers: Kevin Kubota, Tony Sweet, Russ Morris, Ryan Brenizer, Jim Goldstein, and Andrei Zmievski.

Botanic Gardens - Resident Grey Squirrel

Image by infomatique
There are two types of squirrels in Ireland, the red squirrel and the grey squirrel. The red squirrel is native to Ireland while the grey squirrel is native to North America.

The red squirrel (Sciurus Vulgaris) belongs to a large group of mammals called rodents (Rodentia), which includes rats and mice. They can vary hugely in all shades of red and brown to almost black, and their bushy tail at 20cm is nearly as long as their body. This tail helps them to balance as they climb and jump through trees.

A red squirrel is only half the size of a grey squirrel, and the long ear tufts are found only in red squirrels.

Their home (called a drey) is like a large bird’s nest lined with moss and twigs. Baby squirrels (kits) are born between February and August. There may be two litters in a year, with up to six kits in a litter. Few squirrels live beyond six years, due to starvation, disease, predation, or human interference with their habitat.
They do not hibernate, but rely in winter on buried nuts and small seeds.

The grey squirrel is also a rodent. Rodents are one of the most successful groups of mammals, with 1700 species. Most rodents are small, and all have strong sharp front teeth (incisors) which grow throughout the animal’s life. So rodents have to gnaw constantly at their food, which helps keep their teeth at the right length.

The grey squirrel is a good bit larger than a red squirrel. Measuring up to 48cm from nose to tip of tail, and about half a kilogram in weight, there is little difference between males & females. The thick coat is greyish-brown, with a slight reddish tinge in summer. The tail is grey, very long and bushy. The ear tufts are also much less visible than on the red squirrel.


The Grey Squirrel, introduced into Ireland , from North America remains the greatest single threat to current red squirrel populations. Competition from the grey squirrels generally result in the displacement of red squirrels from broadleaved habitat within 15 years.

In Ireland, the current population originates from a few individuals that were introduced into Castleforbes Estate, Co Longford in 1911.

Fortunately, dispersal of grey squirrels in Ireland has been slower than that experienced in England and Wales. This may be attributed to the existence of much smaller areas of broadleaved habitat, and fewer mature hedgerows which act as corridors along which the grey squirrels can travel. Both squirrels compete largely for the same food in a broadleaved woodland. Grey squirrels hold an advantage where food is limited, due to their ability to consume unripe food such as hazelnuts in October. The red squirrel, however, can only ingest ripened nuts, and therefore it is more likely to suffer from food shortages over the winter months. Red squirrel densities tend to be lower than greys, particularly where food shortages exist. This may be a direct result of lower breeding rates when the prevailing conditions are unfavourable. Where food supplies are plentiful, red squirrels appear to breed at similar densities to greys.

Red squirrels are one of the oldest native Irish species, in that they pre-date human history and were common at the end of the ice age when forests covered most of the landscape. However, it is widely believed that the red squirrel became extinct in Ireland in the early 1700's. Tree cover in this period had dwindled from 80% of the land area which occurred after the last ice age 10,000 years ago, to below 2% of the land area. Fragmentation of the remaining broadleaved habitat was probably one of the main reasons for the red squirrel's disappearance. The red squirrel was re-established at ten sites throughout Ireland, between 1815 and 1856, and these were derived from squirrel populations in England. They did very well and became common again in woodlands. However, in recent years, competition from the grey squirrel has pushed them once more down the road towards extinction.
There are 250,000-300,000 grey squirrels in Ireland, but only 50,000-100,000 red squirrels: the red squirrel is disappearing by 1% every year.

NYC - Bronx - Bronx Zoo: Jungle World - Malayan Tapir

Some cool animals endangered images:

NYC - Bronx - Bronx Zoo: Jungle World - Malayan Tapir

Image by wallyg
The Malayan Tapir (Tapirus indicus), also called the Asian Tapir, is the largest of the four species of tapir and the only one native to Asia. The scientific name is somewhat misleading, as the Tapirus indicus is not native to India; the name refers rather to the East Indies. The Malayan Tapir was once found throughout the tropical lowland rainforests of Southeast Asia, including Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar (Burma), Thailand, and Vietnam. However, its numbers have decreased in recent years, and today, like all tapirs, it is in danger of extinction. The main threat to the Malayan tapirs is human activity, including deforestation for agricultural purposes, flooding caused by the damming of rivers for hydroelectric projects, and illegal trade. In Thailand, a young tapir may be worth US00.

Malayan Tapir are easily identified by its markings, most notably the light-colored “saddle” which extends from its shoulders to its rump. The rest of its hair is black, except for the tips of its ears which, as with other tapirs, are rimmed with white. This pattern is for camouflage. Malayan Tapirs grow to between 6 and 8 feet in length, stand 3 to 3.5 feet tall, and typically weigh between 550 and 700 pounds. They have small stubby tails and long, flexible proboscises. They have four toes on each front foot and three toes on each back foot. The Malayan Tapir has rather poor eyesight but excellent hearing.

Malayan Tapirs are primarily solitary creatures, marking out large tracts of land as their territory by spraying urine on plants. Exclusively vegetarian, it slowly forages for the tender shoots and leaves. Despite their ungainly looks and bulk, though, the tapir can gallop through the jungle, scramble up steep slopes, and swim fast-flowing rivers.

The Bronx Zoo, located within the Bronx Park, is the largest metropolitan zoo in the United States, comprising 265 acres of parklands and naturalistic habitats and home to over 4,000 animals. Focused on conservation, it opened on November 8, 1899, with 22 exhibits, 843 animals. The zoo's origins date back to 1895, with the establishment of the New York Zoological Society (NYZS), renamed Wild Conservation Society (WCS) in 1993. Only the outer structure of the World of Reptiles remains much as it was in 1899. With the 1941 opening of African Plains, the Bronx Zoo was one of the first U.S. zoos to move away from cages and exhibit animals in naturalistic habitats.

Bighorn Sheep (Ovis canadensis) DDZ_0031

Image by NDomer73
On 8 June 2008, three groups of adult Bighorn rams totaling 18-20 animals were observed grazing along Interstate 84 in the Columbia River Gorge near the John Day dam. This pair preferred isolated green shrubs over ubiquitous dry grass.

Two hundred years ago, Bighorn Sheep were widespread throughout the western United States, Canada, and Northern Mexico. Some estimates placed their population at higher than 2 million. However, by around 1900, hunting, competition from domesticated sheep, and diseases had decreased the population to only several thousand. A program of reintroductions, natural parks, and reduced hunting, together with a decrease in domesticated sheep near the end of World War II, allowed the Bighorn Sheep to make a comeback, though not before Ovis canadensis auduboni, a sub-species that lived on the Black Hills, went extinct.

Changing things up a bit with this one. My cool and totally awesome niece has worked for the Oregon Zoo since 2004. She was gracious enough to give me a private tour of the area she works which is the Trillium Creek Family Farm located towards the north end of the zoo. After my tour ended I wandered around for a while. It was cold and raining so I was surprised to see a lot of the animals out and in view.

The zoo owns five Caracals: mom, dad, and three babies. Here is dad. His name is Cricket. Not quite as sociable as the rest of the animals Mr. Cricket thought he was well hidden in the very back behind some tall grass and a large rock. Luckily there was an even bigger rock on the outside that I could stand on. I had only one small opening through which I could reach him. Utilizing my 100-400 zoom I waited until he looked at me.

Springhare (Pedetes capensis)

Check out these animals names images:

Springhare (Pedetes capensis)

Image by Dallas Krentzel
Despite their name, the springhare, or the springhaas, is not a hare or lagomorph, but an anomaluromorph rodent in the family Petetidae. Although springhares are highly hystricomorphous, with a greatly englarged infraorbital foramen (large hole anterior to the orbit above, which serves as an attatchment site for the medial masseter muscle), they are more closely related to the strange scaly-tailed squirrels (Anomaluridae) than to Hysticomorpha (which includes the porcupines, capybaras, guinea pigs, chinchillas, among many others). Springhares are highly convergent to rabbits and hares, both superficially with their saltatorial locomotion (jumping behavior), large hind feet, and elongated ears, but also in some of the fine details of the skull, such as a highly reduced temporalis muscle with a small to nonexistent coronoid process on the mandible (blocked by the zygomatic arch here, but you can tell it doesn't extend upward very high, and notice how small the area is for insertion of the temporalis on the skull compared with most mammals). Massively enlarged auditory bullae (the inflated bones in the back of the skull that house the ear bones) are indicators of the jumping lifestyle, and are seen in other rodent jumpers such as jerboas (Dipodidae), kangaroo rats (Heteromyidae), and the vischachas and chinchillas (Chinchillidae).

Despite the fact that I cited one of the similarities between true hares and springhares as jumping, the type of saltatorial locomotion they practice is distinctly different. Springhares jump like the previous groups of rodents I mentioned (jerboas, kangaroo rats) and macropods (true kangaroos), in that they hop bipedally consecutively before allowing their forelimbs to touch the ground again, and usually can remain in a bipedal position indefinitely, and are not obligated to stand quadrupedally, like hares and rabbits are (although I'm sure a hare or rabbit could manage stand up right for a while, but then again, so could my pet dashund). Hares and rabbits are more like anurans (frogs, toads, etc.), in that they can jump well, but must land on all fours before jumping again (Pumas are the cat analog of this behavior, in a sense, as they're hind legs are more proportionately longer than their forelegs than any other cat, and they leap rather well).
