SOLAR ECLIPSE? I decided to use what limited Photoshop skills I have and see what I get by combining two shots from a Bengal Bay beach sunset and the full moon over Joypara. Enjoy!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DUSTIN
Last night we celebrated Austin’s (July 19 B.D.) and Dustin’s (July 24 B.D.). Austin turned 36 and Dustin 34 years old. Each blowing out their candle with one blow. It was a Pistacchio cake. Of course Alice fixed her excellent smoked chicken, mashed potatoes, gravy, as well as hot and cold vegetables. It was a good time to catch up with Austin’s who had just returned from Bali, Indonesia on Tuesday evening.
SOLAR ECLIPSE of July 22, 2009 coming to an end. After going to a local “hotel” for a Bengali breakfast of Dal and Nan Ruti, I took one more shot of the solar eclipse as I headed down the street. It was probably the last chance to see before the clouds took over.
SOLAR ECLIPSE over Dhaka, Bangladesh
I decided not to take the 10 hour bus ride yesterday to be in Northern Bangladesh to see the total eclipse, so here is one of my photos of the partial eclipse from the rooftop of our apartment building.
BALI musical instrument that my Grandson, Pruitt brought back from their vacation time.
THE POTTER, my son Austin! I couldn’t resist another of my son since it was his 36th Birthday yesterday. Here he is at work in his studio in Ohio. He sold his kiln when he moved to Bangladesh.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my son, Austin & my sister, Lillian!! Here is a self-portrait Austin painted. I took the photo at his house while celebrating his Bachelor’s Degree in Art from the University of Akron, in 2007.
CHAPATIS in the making. This fellow in the Mohammadia Housing section of Dhaka came to the tea stand I was at and wanted me to take a photo of him and his wife as she was making chapatis (flat bread). Very tasty, in fact I had some for lunch at a friends house.
NICE HEAD SHOT by a teammate while Masum (red jersey) looks on. I play with these fellows early on Friday and Saturday morning. We have a match at 4:15 at the TNT field. If we win we are in the semi-finals.
SCRAMBLE to get on this Mirpur Rd bus in Dhaka, Bangladesh. The other day it happened to me, so I wrapped my right arm around the bar between the window and the door, until there was enough pushing and shoving to make for both of my feet to be on the floor.
REBEKAH Petersheim and her Dad exchanging cake, celebrating her 2nd Birthday!
GRANDMA with her grandsons, Riley, Pruitt and Jensen. They were all in a festive mood since it was her birthday.
