Fall Pictures

2006-10-11T19:27:00.000-07:00

These are pictures I took whilst on an expedition north to view the leafs. Most of the earlier colours had gone (vibrant reds with green and yellow), leaving mostly a more dead-feeling forest of yellows, and grey.

I've started living on the wild side...

Rocks

2006-08-21T11:09:00.000-07:00

This was taken on the same day as the picture below. I threw some rocks into the water and used burst mode. I also lengthened the f-stop to make it look more streaky

The summer's starting to get old, but the pictures seem to keep on coming

Okay, no more flowers for a while, I promise

Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore"

2006-08-14T15:58:00.000-07:00

Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter,In there stepped a stately raven, of the saintly days of yore.Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he;But with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door.Perched upon a bust of Pallas, just above my chamber door,Perched, and sat, and nothing more.

--Edgar Allen Poe

Coal Door

2006-08-13T12:17:00.000-07:00

This is the old coal door on my house. It was used for pouring the coal into the basement before it was loaded into the furnace. The paint's peeling, so it looks as if it has some sort of horrible skin disease...

Flowers!

Leaky fossets should be illegal, but they make for great pictures

2006-08-11T17:46:00.000-07:00

I took this at my cottage, it's a picture of the lake through the trees at around 8:00, just when the sun was setting, and reflecting off the lake.

The Eye

2006-08-11T17:42:00.000-07:00

A pic of my eye, wanted to test out the supermacro function on my camera. Really freaky when used as a display picture for IM, makes it seem like you're watching them while they type
