The Reflection Challenge...01/05/09
The Challenge: Show us your interpretation of the word, "Reflection."
The Participants: Kre8ive, John (300m), Bill Pador, Karina Boese, Johnloguk, Creative Deviance, The Curious Camel, MyKey, Karina Boese, Trevlan, MSpencer, and myself. 
The Result: "Fanny", reflecting fun memories of this last year!
This morning, I noticed the sun shining right on Fanny and her festive hat! Well...that took care of this weekly challenge!
I was planning on choosing my submission for this challenge from my files; I have quite a few that would have fit for 'reflection' ! 
Since Fanny wanted her picture taken today, I have included two other images in my Contender gallery.

Half Dome Reflection In Mirror Lake (Johnloguk:  finally! Another image from Yosemite!)

P.S. For many of the shots on my camera card, of this entire day, my camera was in the hands of someone else!  Our very own 'MyKey' took this one, and others during this particular time!
Good job, girl!

This update photo of 'Jane Doe' was taken late this afternoon. She made it through her ordeal no more worse-for-the-wear, other than she was cold and began shivering. 

There is a photo of how we used the rope to get her out of the situation here.
 
That was certainly fun reading all the comments on the "Venison Soup" image!  Our neighbor, Chuck, and I thought it probably would be, after I told him that  I was definitely going to post that  as my DP!! Thank you all for the interest, giggles, and concern!

The day after my return from the Yosemite trip, my husband, myself and the neighbors noticed a doe in a gulley on our property, standing motionless....all day. Something was certainly wrong with her, but nothing obvious. I took her some dinner (!) and breakfast the next morning.  She had managed to move about 50 yds. up our driveway, then proceeded to just stand there all day.
She was even letting me hand feed her.  Last Tuesday night, she followed our neighbor into their fenced in yard area, and as been there ever since. 
Something is wrong with one of her eyes.(This is her good eye-in the above photo)  We think she's blind in that eye, and maybe a head injury caused that and the possibility of some brain damage; she doesn't maneuver very well.
Seriously, she DID end up in that water trough all of her own doing!  It was sad, yet funny!  Chuck and I so wished we had gotten that on video!
We've called several 'animal' agencies, but no-one wants to do anything. They say just let her be; you know....survival of the fittest....let nature take its course.
This afternoon, the neighbors and I decided to carry on with our 'deerly rehabilitation', and see if she seems to improve.  She was letting me hand feed her apples again tonight; she does have an appetite and is drinking from (instead of lounging in!!!)  the trough.
We know she would not last long if we let her out of the fenced area; quite probably be the bucks that would end up killing her; she wouldn't be able to get away from them.

If anyone has any helpful advice, we would greatly appreciate it!

 Winery Fountain

The California Central Coast (well....actually, most of California, now) is home to many, many wineries.  This Fountain marks the driveway entrance to a winery on Hwy. 46 East of Paso Robles.

When they designed their entrance and built the fountain, the flowing 'liquid' was purple!  Yes!  Their wine was flowing!! 
It made for a gorgeous and unique fountain, however, apparently problems were experienced.  The fountain flowed purple for maybe 1 1/2 years, then the next time I drove by, the flow was clear  : (

Weekly Challenge  --  'Liquid'
My photo time for this challenge was spent in creating the collage. The purple flow image was taken in summer of '03. The clear flow image was taken last March, as Myki and I were returning from our Desert trip!
