I can’t imagine the series of events that led up to this incredibly specific damage to the car’s license plate and bumper. Can you?

(Let’s pretend I have the camera, lens and skill necessary to achieve this cool depth of field effect, and didn’t fake it in Photoshop.)

Most of the birds were peacefully resting in the sun, but this shrimp-swilling monster had other ideas.

A large tree fell the right way on my parent’s property, taking out another equally large tree next to it. After taking lots of pictures of the wreckage, I noticed this single leaf stuck in a long spiderweb.

Beach erosion and unusually high tides most likely created this small bay/lake/whatever, but most folks at the beach didn’t bother to cross it before dropping their chairs, buckets and umbrellas.

The new camera takes lots of shots quickly.

(The image-handling plugin can’t deal with animated GIFs, so I’m going to need to recode this site. yay.)

The remaining chunk of the sign read along the bottom: “[WARNING: UNAUTHORIZ]ED REMOVAL, DAMAGING OR DEFACING THIS SIGN IS A VIOLATION [OF THE COU]NTY CODE AND PUNISHABLE BY A FINE OF UP TO $1000.”

I’m sure the county worker who shredded it will be brought to justice.

We’re putting our home of six years on the market today. The Sony has a panorama feature, but it’s fairly low-res.

The picture had a nice short field of focus, but I pushed it in photoshop, plus blew out the light a bit. A little ghostly, and about as close to the spirit of Easter as I’ll prolly ever get.

This was as close as we got. Almost saw the remotest jumbotrons, but the signs were worth the trip.

He was loud, he was proud, but heavy is the head that wears the crown.

Sky looked ominously pretty, so I stopped at a housing development to take a few shots. This big sign was in the way, but I went with it. It was either that or walk 10 feet.

Taking a break from some offsite training, I saw one tiny figure at the bottom of a well of stone and glass. He was both alone and surrounded by people.
