[جوري]

I met lots of Albanians in the university in fact I was one of the patron at AlbaCafe ... really love their food... i like those cheese and beef pastries.. the lasagna has lots of aubergines... love the baked spaghetti too...the most popular dish is a kind of lamb stew eaten with bread which is very popular among Malaysian and Bosnian students ....the owner can speak in Malaysian, Arabic and English fluently...

I think the Albanians in Malaysia are quite religious too..

there are many Albanian students (they even have a Cafe) in the International Islamic University Malaysia..

Like, Bosnians and Turks.. I think the Albanians are very humble and friendly people... but the Chechens have negative reputation among Malaysian students there

Masha'Allah I love this forum.. where else can I meet Muslims from all over..
we used to have Russian sisters here but now they are gone it seems..imsad

wouldn't it be amazing if we can host an international muslim travel, each group hosted in the country of members from here.. like a whole bunch of us travel to Albania, then Malaysia, then Egypt, then Russia etc etc

I could possibly spend the rest of my life traveling and not tire of it...

[burdenofbeing]

gossamer that would be great. we could have a "www.couchsurfing.com" for the muslims only.

here's one from istanbul:

these are old from an old demonstration in Atlanta

[The Ruler]

Kasim, the last one is nice. It's just that your camera resolution is poor. And when that's the case, the picture quality suffers heavily when it's enlarged. Resize the image and make it smaller so that it's less grainier.

Where I live, taken at the beginning of this year.... early morning walk.... my favourite time of day when no-one's around, just you, nature and no noise!

One of the other residents on our holiday balcony last summer

Another peaceful moment. We were taking an evening stroll, no people no traffic, just peace! Lovely.

[alcurad]

nice pics :)

beautiful job Karina the first and the last one are exceptional!
indeed I always say that mornings belong to the angels!

[Woodrow]

Prairie Dog town on the Cheyenne River Lakota Sioux Reservation. This is a very large colony of prairie dogs, possibly the largest in South Dakota. I is about 20 miles North to South and 10 miles East to West. They are shy little creatures, although called dogs they are a rodent and actually a type of ground squirrel. We pass through this area every time we cross the rez. Yesterday it was a nice clear day and a few were out sunning themselves. I am not going to give the exact location as too many people shoot them for "Sport" or target practice. This colony is not well known and not many people are aware of it except for the Native Americans on the rez. They respect wildlife and only hunt for food and don't shoot little critters for "Target Practice".

My socks are fine!........but because you are a professional knitter you can make fun all you want

[glo]

I'd darn your socks anytime - or knit you a new pair. (I could even knit arabic script into it, if you wanted to! :D)

Alternatively, follow these instructions and knit your own!

Tada! :D

Abdullahii's walk to the Masjid inspired me to take my digital camera with me when I went for a run this morning.
I invite you to join me on my run! :)

Along the Grand Union canal, ...

... which is enjoyed by ducks ...

... as well as the boaters.

Looking down from the canal onto the river Great Ouse ...

... and up from the river onto the aquaduct.

Through the creepy little brick tunnel, which runs underneath the canal ...

... ... and out the other side.

Through the trees ...

... and into the open field.

This is my favourite place. A disused arm of the canal, now dry and covered in wild flowers. :statisfie

Over the river again, which is running high following the recent rain we've had ...

... and back home, putting up my feet for a well-earned rest! :)

[~Raynn~]

What a totally picturesque place!! And that duck has one very glossy head, lol...

Through the trees ...

^^ Lol, I think this is my favourite...ahhh, such an amazing green...

That's my favourite pic too. It's now on my desktop.
The reason that the green is so amazing is that the leaves are still quite young and fresh. In a couple of months the colours will have faded ...

[Karina]

Awwww Glo, you live in such a pretty place!

Thank you for sharing these - you may just have inspired me to put get my running shoes out of the cupboard where they've been hiding for some time!!

Spring into summer is really special here, there's so much to see, hear and smell.

I just went for a walk down my road to feed the horses in a field not too far away, and caught the scent of hawthorne flowers, wild garlic and cut grass and it made my head spin with pleasure!

I hope the grey old bare winter stays away for as long as possible!

[glo]

Karina, I seem to remember you live in a beautiful part of the country too. :)

There is just something very lovely about the English countryside!
I actually live in a small town ... but just a 5-mile-roundtrip takes me to so many different sceneries. That's what I love about it!

And yes, get those running shoes out - before that summer sun gets too hot! :)

[NIKKY]

Wow...great pics Glo...it looks sooo peaceful in them pics....

Where I live is really nowhere special at all, NIKKY.
I am sure where you live are very beautiful corners too - you just need to look for them! (Sometimes away from where everybody else goes) :)

Autumn has its own attraction, though :statisfie. I only wish the leaves would stay on the trees a little longer, lol...
I remember going on holiday to Vermont, aeons ago...the fall colours there are so rich, it's spectacular...and lol, when you see them, it's hard to imagine the leaves ever falling...

We have this cherry blossom tree (well, I think it's a cherry blossom tree) in our front yard - I don't often go much further for nature :-[ ...The blossoms are gone, and it's all green now, but here are a couple of photos from early April:

Aaah, is it at all possible to make these smaller??

Those are awesome. :)

OHH this is so strange sub7an'Allah when I clicked on this thread a second ago I thought "Hmm..I should post the pictures that I took of that pink tree infront of the campus the other day"...and you beat me to it!haha!

I love those trees they're so beautiful..I don't think I'll post my pictures since I think my friends are in them and I have no clue how to "photoshop" them out of it...plus yours are beautiful:)

Anyway,thanks for sharing:D

Lol, thanks!!! I love them tooo, the blossoms are something to look forward to every spring, even though ours never last for more than a few weeks imsad...lol.

Here are a few pictures of wild flowers which my daughter took yesterday:

Buttercup

White Deadnettle

I find wild flowers have a particular beauty, because they are so delicate and simple.

Peace, and happy sunshine! :)

[BlissfullyJaded]

^ Beautiful! I like the Buttercup! :)

How much can one edit to keep the picture 'natural'? Not the best way to phrase the question, I know.

Change it very minimally, just for the sake of touching it up, but not to change it. Blur the background if needed, if some colors didn't pop out the way you wanted tweak that a bit, make it a lilll bit lighter or darker as needed... But don't go over the top, that looses its charm. :thumbs_up

[Sister_Zee]

Salaam,

Hey, you're never too old to be young

Ehm yes I want to stay young as I seem to be getting old :(

j/k :D

Great pics glo, at least you know the names of the flowers, I simply can't remember their names, so when I post a photo I either have to search for it or ask my brother. I think he is going to shoo me away one day lol.

I just realized I have posted quite a few pictures of South Dakota but not many of Minnesota. Yesterday was a beautiful day and Aabidah and I spent the day walking around in a secluded field we know of in Osakis, Minnesota. It is best reached on horse back as it is about 10 miles off the road, but yesterday the ground was solid so we drove out to it and spent the day taking pictures. We took several hundred picture, but I will only post our favorite ones here.

[glo]

How lush and green those landscapes are. Not unlike Britain!
Is the whole of Minnesota like this?

[Raaina]

There are some places in Britan like this..

Beautiful pictures by the way :)
I shall have to find some photos to post

[glo]

This is the spot where we went cray fishing yesterday:

[glo]

Looks like Minnesota? Are those Woodrow and Abidah on horseback in the background? :D

(Not really ... this is the UK)

[Woodrow]

How lush and green those landscapes are. Not unlike Britain!
Is the whole of Minnesota like this?

Much of it is, Minnesota is called the "Land of Lakes" there are over 10,000 named lakes in the State of over 100 acres in size. Plus countless ponds such as the one in the pictures. Because of the numerous lakes there is a lot of forestry. this is also the summer nesting grounds for most of the water fowl found in the Western Hemisphere. The variety of birds is beyond imagination.

It is quite a contrast to North and South Dakota which border it. Although North Dakota has many ponds often called pot holes.

Minnesota does have 3 large cities, Saint Joseph, Saint Cloud and Minneapolis. But the total population of the state is only 5,220,393 nearly all of that in the Minneapolis area. The area of the State is 87,014 SQ. MI

Decided to add 2 more pictures of the field

This next one is one of my favorite plants. Milkweed I have loved it since I was a kid. It is a major weed in dairy country as it ruins the milk if a cow eats any of it. But, it has a redeeming quality it is the only food source for Monarch Butterlies in the far North.

what kind of camera you use?

I LOVED the first one sooo pure. #5 is amazing as well :)

[glo]

Thank you, Danah, previously SAYA. :)

Our family camera is a Nikon coolpix L4

I have to admit that I cheated a bit - most of the pictures were taken by my 12-year-old son. He's a good photographer, isn't he? :statisfie

I think the one with the drops on the leaf took him a while, because he sprayed the leaf to create to water drops effect.
All the other pictures were taken 'naturally'.

your welcome, I was about to forget that name "SAYA" lol

These are the pictures I took when I traveled to Aceh for work a couple of weeks before Ramadan. As you know, Aceh is a province in Indonesia whose parts were destroyed by tsunami in December 2004 and suffered from years of conflict between the Free Aceh Movement and The government of Indonesia before peace acord was signed in 2005. I work in an organization that provided funds for community projects that help former conflict victims.
Aceh is the only province in Indonesia that apply Sharia law.

All of these winter pictures froze me. Let's warm up with some summer pictures. Here are some pictures my wife took last summer. This are all on the Cheyenne River Lakotah Sioux Nation, near the Lake Oahi region on the Missouri River. This is where we keep our horses. They have a little room to run around in.

The creatures in this next picture are Pronghorn Antelope. There are many herds of them roaming through the rez. This is a very small herd, we often see herds with hundreds of them

The Black and white horse is one of ours. We have no idea who that white horse is, he belongs to somebody else. We do have a whit horse, but that isn't him. The horses all free range so periodically we have have to run all over the rez and get our herd all back together in one spot. Fortunately each herd stays close together, so when you find one, the rest will be near. Occasionally the herds will travel together, than you have to separate yours out from the neighbors.

Our newest horse. We bought him yesterday. He is still at the sellers Ranch. Took these Pictures yesterday at the ranch. His name is Reflections and he is 6 years old.

He has fantastic markings and is very much championship material, however he is no longer show grade, he lost an eye in an accident. Because he is no longer show quality we got him for a very low price.



He is a miniature only 38 inches tall. Strictly a show breed, not for working. We will be using him for advertising.

[Ramadhan]

Awwww.... the horse is so cute!

[Fטлку]

awww...its just a lil pony ^_^

[glo]

I love the name Reflections. :)

[Woodrow]

awww...its just a lil pony ^_^

The miniature are a separate equine species from ponies. They are actually from a line of full size horses. There are a very large number of equines such as Horses, ponies, zebras, donkeys etc. In horses thers are seperate varieties such as Quarter, Walkers, Dressage, Draught. The miniatures come from those lines. "Reflections" is classified as a miniature Quarter with Paint and Appaloosa markings.

[Woodrow]

I love the name Reflections. :)

We got him from Broken M "New Horizon's" ranch. He was named "Reflections" as he was expected to become a Champion like his parents.

This is his father:

A little about Reflections from the ad we found him in.

Broken M's Painted Reflection

Gorgeous homozygous bay and white tovero stallion
AMHR division A

Sire-Flying A Magics Black Tie Affair
Dam-Broken M's Painted Princess


Excellent level topline and overall conformation, very nice neck, pretty face, black eyeliner accenting those big blue eyes! Reflection is destined to sire beautiful, colorful offspring!

When we went out to look at him His mother was far out to pasture. I took a telephoto picture of her from about a mile distance Here she is, but not clear. She is the center horse in the picture.

We are going to use reflections for 2 purpose one is in an ad campaign for our honey business and the other is we are setting up for our horses to be used in a therapeutic program for disabled children. "Reflections" will be used to get the children familiar with a horse before they get placed on a full sized one. Equine therapy has been found to be very beneficial for handicapped children. Inshallah, the Ranch we currently pasture our horses on will eventually benefit children.

Sadly, Refletions lost an eye in an accident and now can no longer be used as a show horse, so he will not be able to reach Championship status, which greatly reduces his value as a breed horse. For that reason we got him at a very low price.

[glo]

Woodrow, you may know that I work with adults with learning disabilities (mental handicap).

We use equine therapy.
It is great to develop balance, body awareness, confidence, social skills etc etc.

[Ummu Sufyaan]

Edit..................

[Woodrow]

I have spoke elsewhere about feral cats. Feral cats are wild cats descended from domestic cats that were dropped off or runaways and have lived in the wilds for several generations. They have basically reverted back to being a wild species and usually do not tame. Well it seems the females have been finding shelter to have their kittens. I was over working on the house we are refurbishing and up in the attic I found:

Very unusual coloration even for a Calico.
She is much too young to take from her mother. If the mother does not move her kittens out I will try to re catch her again in about 3 weeks and see if I can turn her into a house cat. Very few feral kittens survive out in the open once they are weaned and fending on their own. With the colors on this rascal I suspect she would fast become a meal for an owl the first night she tried prowling. The feral cats that survive tend to be the darker colored ones, like these rascals.

[glo]

She is lovely, Woodrow.
Have you thoughts of a name yet?

[Woodrow]

She is lovely, Woodrow.
Have you thoughts of a name yet?

We are a little reluctant to name her at this point. It will be at least a week to 3 weeks before she can be taken from her mother. Much can happen during that time. She may even turn out to be be untameable. Many of the ferals do not tame even when hand raised from a young age. Her mother is very wild and aggressive. I only got this chance to handle the kitten because the mother was off hunting. Even tho they are cute, you have to think of a feral as being a wild animal and not a domesticated house cat.
