[levadny]

I must use Image-tag?

 

[Borek]

Does it count as a selfie?

(Zadar, Croatia, January 1^st, empty city so I could take pictures of the streets, not of the crowd)

 

[jim hardy]

Three antiquities ?

Harry, me ,
and @dlgoff's grandfather's fiddle.
Harry says:
'Despite the plain outer finish with no purfling...the workmanship inside it is remarkable. Front and back are expertly thinned, neck has a most unusual mitre attachment. This one's going to have a fine tone.'
Marked inside "Repaired by J R Bain 1928, N drawn backward. So it was old then.
Will do my best to recruit Harry to PF when he gets internet.

Me standing on the small island Grand Bé outside the walled city of Saint-Malo.

I prefer to think of it as a halo :)

I'm not sure I like those "Google Street View" peeps anymore...

My screen capture from ≈last year:

"Woo hoo! We're going to be famous!"But... They went with "let's go with the one without the crazies".

Taken "BEFORE!" the above image...

Me working my "part time" job (in the white shirt)...

Hmmm, that photo looks fake. I can't say exactly how, but there is clearly something fishy about it.

Little guy before and after eye surgery. Holy wow! He got cuter again? I'm not sure this increasing level of cute is sustainable...

Our experience is the cute is sustainable at least until high school or the first time they wreck the car.

 

[jim hardy]

at least until high school

Well, junior high school. Seventh-Grade-Itis.

Must be some evolutionary value to adolescent rebelliousness but i haven't figured it out.

 

[BillTre]

Must be some evolutionary value to adolescent rebelliousness but i haven't figured it out.

A possible explanation:
Reduced cuteness (to parents) would promote them leaving (reduced attachment between parents and offspring) the family/local group (closely related gene pool) prior to breeding (increased likelihood of breeding non-relatives).
To some degree this seems typical teenage/ juvenile behavior in some mammals (as well as humans).
It could reduce inbreeding by reducing contact with those more closely related genetically.

Could be tied to maturation and hormone changes.

This has actually been researched..

Me at a life-changing moment... the first time I met that monster and decided it would keep me busy for the next few years...
Because although a monster remember Beauty is found within.

[Aufbauwerk 2045]

I would like to post my photo. First I need to get a new webcam. Then some candles so there will be some light in the room. Also a Guy Fawkes mask. Finally a red rose, since that's my avatar.

Or I could just post a photo of someone who looks a lot like me. Although I would not do it for legal or just politeness reasons. I was amazed to find an apparent doppelgänger in a very surprising context. Creepy. Has anyone else come across a doppelgänger online? Would posting my doppelgänger be an example of "fair use?"

Why yes, yes we have....

Gee, not sure on that....

Forty years ago in May. Just post daguerreotype.

 

[ZapperZ]

This was taken just a week ago. And no, as you might already guess, I didn't become croc food.

Those crocs are looking scared!
