Indian Roller

After a long holiday in December last year with my family, I really missed the birding outing with my group, the  North Avian Snipers and the moment my friend Kevin knew I was back from holiday and he show me a new place to shoot a new migratory bird, yes, is called the Indian Roller (Coracias benghalensis) but is not from India, hahaha…we were in the new place quite early in the morning and waited for this migratory bird to appear, yes it did and i am lucky to have shot quite a few of this bird…

Thaipusam 2008

Yes, a three days event and this year Thaipusam armed with Nikon D200 and nikkor lens 17-55mmf2.8 I went there alone and have a shooting spree and continuously for two days to take some shots, plenty not some I must say.  On reaching there I was surprised to see so many photogs there too, oh yes I also have met some of my friends there busily snaping away nice pics…afterall I am not alone then.  I must admit that I enjoy myself very much during that two days shooting spree.   Anyway, I have not finished editing the pictures as yet…but so far of all the pics I have seen and taken and this one I like most…

Made in China or Made by China ?

I came across this in the paper and was puzzle by it.  The China authority intends to fight back with counterfeit goods as  the words “Made In China” indicated counterfeit goods or inferiority.  So, they come out with the words “Made By China” to improve the image.  But, would it made any difference ?? Hmmm…I wonder

Punctuation…

An English professor wrote the words:

A woman without her man is nothing

on the board and asked his students to punctuate it correctly.

All of the males in the class wrote: “A woman, without her man, is nothing.”

All the females in the class wrote: “A woman: without her, man is nothing.”……

Tattoo parlor…

A woman goes into a tattoo parlor and tells the tattoo artist that
she wants a tattoo of a turkey on her right thigh, right up just below her
bikini line.

She also wants him to put “Happy Thanksgiving” under the turkey.

So the guy does it and it comes out looking real good.

The woman then instructs him to put a Santa Clause with “Merry
Christmas” up on her left thigh. So the guy does it and it comes out looking
good too.

As the woman is getting dressed to leave, the tattoo artist says,
   “If you don’t mind, could you tell me why you had me put such unusual
     tattoos on your thighs?”

She said, “I’m sick and tired of my husband complaining all the time
    that there’s nothing good to eat between Thanksgiving and Christmas !!!”

Winners Versus Losers

These are the differences between Winners and Losers:-

The Winner is always part of the answer;
The Loser is always part of the problem.

The Winner always has a solution;
The Loser always has an excuse.

The Winner says, “Let me do it for you”;
The Loser says, “That is not my job.”

The Winner sees an answer for every problem;
The Loser sees a problem for every answer.

The Winner says, “It may be difficult but it is possible”;
The Loser say, “It may be possible but it is too difficult.”

When a Winner makes a mistake, he says, “I was wrong”;
When a Loser makes a mistake, he says, “It wasn’t my fault.”

A Winner makes commitments;
A Loser makes promises.

Winners have dreams;
Losers have schemes.

Winners say, “I must do something”;
Losers say, “Something must be done.”

Winners are a part of the team;
Losers are apart from the team.

Winners see the gain;
Losers see pain.

Winners see possibilities;
Losers see problems.

Winners believe in win/win;
Losers believe for them to win someone has to lose.

Winners see the potential;
Losers see the past.

Winners are like a thermostat;
Loser are like thermometers.

Winners choose what they say;
Losers say what they choose.

Winners use hard arguments, but soft words;
Losers use soft arguments, but hard words.

Winners stand firm on values but compromise on petty things;
Losers stand firm on petty things but compromise on values.

Winners follow the philosophy of empathy: “Don’t do to others what you   don’t want them to do to you”;
Losers follow the philosophy, “Do it to others before they do it to you.”

Winners make it happen; 
Losers let it happen.
