Day One Hundred Seven Copping out tonight with a still life.

105mm Macro ISO-100 f11 1/125 I was impressed with this one, until I saw Rick's red flower.

Day One Hundred Six Time to get lazy. This is today's photo but I think it just might qualify as a "Backlit" photo for the new weekly contest. The sun was still high but still behind the globe. Most will recognize the Aqua Globe. (As Seen on TV). My wife got a set this past Christmas. They...

Day One Hundred Five Had one of the grandkids overnight so NO computer time. That's why yesterday's photo is being posted today. Dakota (up close and personal). Shot this one just a half second before she tried to lick the lens.

Day One Hundred Four Here's a hot wheels truck for wonder bread. My younger sister gave it to me back in 1976. She got it at work. She worked at Contental Baking Co. as a secretary... To this day, I still insist that she was really a Twinkie Stuffer.

Day One Hundred Three Today I had to find out if things really measured up.

Day One Hundred Two Today, just a tree. It used to have white flowers on it but the winds fixed that.

Day One Hundred One My numbering is starting to become tedious, but I started this way so I’ll continue this way. Picked up this book a few weeks back, decided it’s time to try learning about what I can do with photoshop. I guess the best place to start is page ONE.

Day One Hundred Triple Digits finally! A little culture now. This is the Library of Congress Audio-Visual Conservation center. Believe it or not, this building used to be completely underground. It was origianally built back in the 50s as a Safe Haven for Congress and staff in case of the...

Day Ninety Nine Jumped into the Way Back machine with Mr. Peabody and Sherman to get this shot of a 1956 Ford F100

Day Ninety Eight Took the drive down to Richmond (90 minutes or so) to visit my parents. Dad 91 and mom 86. Got this picture of Miss Muffet, a toy poodle. She's my sister's dog but she adopted Dad instead. It was a pretty day and everyone was out playing in the yard.

Day Ninety Seven Thought about going out and trying to catch a moonrise, but after a long day at work, and a trip with one of the dogs to the vet, I'm just too darn tired to pack the gear and go out. Wife has been working on "Easter" for the Grandkids, and here's some of her work. Each egg is...

Day Ninety Six Before you comment, YES! This IS a photograph. I took a photo of my monitor here at work. I am positive this is not a Daffodil or a Dandelion. I just figured this would put an end to all the speculation that the world would end before the contest was over.

Day Ninety Five I was going to make a smart comment for Rick about the day number but I won't. Remember the Daffodil back on day Ninety? Well this is the same flower five days later. It looked crappy in color so I made it b/w. I decided to add a lily today too because the Daffodil was so...

Day Ninety Four Today is Flower Day. Had some Irises bloom. White ones were a few days ago, but the wind wouldn't let me shoot them. Today it was rather calm so I got a fair shot of the white ones, a fair shot of the purple one and a pretty decent Dogwood bloom I like the Dogwood best. I...

Day Ninety Three OK History lesson here. Lewis and Clark. Both local Virginia boys. They have been given credit for discovering the area covered by the Louisiana Purchase and the Northwest Territories. We all know that those areas were already there so they really only mapped the areas. They...

Day Ninety Two I think I blew my window of opportunity for the Dogwood blossom. I knew it was blooming, but figured I had enough time to wait until today. No such luck. All the blossoms just look kind of flat and unimpressive. Maybe the ones at the top are good, but I can't reach that high...

Day Ninety One Well I didn't win the Mega Bazillion Lottery jackpot last night. In fact, my numbers weren't even close. I guess if I'm going to get a new D7000, I'd better go back to counting these. Yes, there is a Canadian penny in that pile. Once they're out of circulation, they might...

Day Ninety This weekend marks the One Quarter point. Weather is starting to get nice so I can find outside stuff. Another very busy day at work. I had the camera but never got to take it out of the bag. Some grocery shopping on the way home, and had to settle for whatever in the yard. I...

Day Eighty Nine Today is a cop out. Baredly had time to eat lunch. Anyway Here is a stained glass lamp shade.
