September 9th - Abstract

Abstract of a dividing wall in a restaurant.

August 14th - Bird houses

Some bird houses on a ladder in my neighbor's yard. I like them.

September 6th - Leaves

Here's today's shot, some leaves of a plant at a friend's house. I just liked the way the light was hitting it from the window behind me, although I wish my camera could have done a better job:

Here are a few bonus shots from the fair yesterday:
This one shows the "grown up" ferris wheel at the other end of the fair (circled in red), as taken from the "little kid" ferris wheel, which is the one we rode:

This one shows the golf course that is behind the fairgrounds, and I'm showing this one since there was a comment that our area was so "green" and I wanted to show just how green! I love my peninsula!


This one shows the ferris wheel we rode, from ground level:


And, last but not least, this one is my daughters entry that won first place and got us a VIP parking pass, 4 tickets to the fair, and 12 ride tickets. Plus she won a ribbon, too. :) I removed her name from the label and put in "first place!" Oh, I should specify that she didn't draw the flower, only colored it.

January 28th - 2mp Cell phone shots, today

A pink flower I found on a walk today. This was taken with my cell phone's 2mp camera, which doesn't do well with closeups, hence the blurry flower. And, this one too:

This is miner's lettuce. I remember picking this when I was a kid, on a field trip in school, and eating it raw. I read about it a couple of years ago, and one of the things I read was that miner's used to eat it raw or cook it like spinach. So, my kid and I picked some and cooked it and tried it. Blech! Much better raw, in salads. :P Cute little flower in the middle, eh? :)

January 15th - Flash! Aah-ahhh, savior of the universe!

How's this for green? :) I was at a friend's house for dinner tonight, and they have a chameleon. Since I didn't have a camera with me, other than my cell phone's 2 mp camera, they let me use their Nikon and emailed me the pictures I took. How nice! What a lovely camera! However, since I'd not used one of those, the focus isn't exactly right on the nose. Oh, well. This little guys name is Flash, by the way. And I do mean little, he's maybe 3 inches long! :)

January 10th - Purple Muppet Flowers

I love how the flowers look like little Muppet birds, or creatures of some kind. These aren't from my own garden, but a neighbors a couple of streets over. Aren't they pretty? :)

July 14th - Fly macro

Yet another insect macro. I love the colors on the fly, I hate the fly, but I love the colors! :) Ha, ha, yet another picture of my zucchini plant, too! :)
