Hey! Where are you going? Don't look at me like that!

I think these last three I want to print and frame. I dig 'em.

Also, yeah I know I use macro WAY too much. I'm compensating for my actual lack of photography skill. :D

That bad, huh? I've never been on a subway.

Anyway, I love that shot!

The pineapples make my mouth water. Yah, the colors are gorgeous! Canon digital cameras are known for their vibrant yet accurate color reproduction (and white balance). (No, I wasn't paid to say that.)

Thanks, Waddley, I'm hungry now.

I kinda enhanced the color in GIMP, but just a little. Really, the originals don't look too different.

Thanks Lorin and MM :)

Thanks! :) I normally hate feet, but I love my son's!

Here's some texture-y shots I took today while lazing around the house. They're some of my yarns that I keep amassing but have no idea what to do with. I have a weird obsession with yarn.

thanks for the kind words, aliantha. she was equal parts talent and madness. Seems to go hand in hand with artists.
