Day 313

From my Topsy Turby crop! This was taken, as were all of the photos except the next one, in a “light box”.  Light boxes can soften the light, or diffuse the light to make it look like there is no specific direction for the light to come from. (1/180, f16, 135mm, ISO 400) This one […]

Day 310

Now for somet5hing completely different…my Topsy Turby planters finally got harvested!  It was pretty sparse, but I don’t think it was the upside down planters.  The Dailywife’s tomato crop was pretty slim, too.  So for the next few posts I will show off the crop!

Day 301: More Tink!

A little flying around. (1/500, f8, 80mm, ISO 400) And then the Dragonfly said “RRAARRGGGHH!!!” (1/1000, f5.6, 122mm, ISO 400) Where’s I put that Fairy dust? (1/550, f8, 135mm, ISO 400) ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 300

Sunday (Halloween) we got a visit from Tinkerbelle!  Her shadow seems to be looking around… (1/90, f8, 95mm, ISO 100) Whew!  At least it didn’t run off like that Pete guy’s shadow did… (1/180, f8, 85mm, ISO 100) ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 260

The night before I start my big trip and Dad came over for a Christian Motorcyclist Association meeting (in a truck!  Just a couple inches of snow and they all wimp out…).  So we had a big family (minus Daily Daughter 2.0) dinner.  Every one seemed pretty happy…well, almost everyone… (Nikon Coolpix L11 on auto) […]

Day 254

The dining room set: Out with the old!  25 years of good service…and still going strong!  You can’t say that about the  chairs, however.  The wood and glue are both terminally dried out… In with the new…prosthetic legs??? Nope, just a set of table legs. All set up.  It is about 2/3’s the width of […]

Day 251: Summer is almost over…

…the sunflowers are wearing away… (1/90, f16, 210mm, ISO 200, -1/2 stop) …the dandelions are… (1/750, f8, 275mm, ISO 200, -1/2 stop) …disappearing… (1/1000, f8, 275mm, ISO 200, -1/2 stop) …the brown…things…are showing up… (1/60, f16, 140mm, ISO 200, -1/2 stop) …the canadian geese have returned (the ones that left, anyway!)… (1/2000, f8, 275mm, ISO […]

Day 250

I went for a walk down on River’s Edge Trail, and got a great view of Rainbow Falls and dam as they draw down the water level prior to connecting the water supply for the new powerhouse. (Click to enlarge, BACK to return!) (1/80, f4, 70mm, ISO 100, -1/2 stop, three photos stitched together in […]
