These were from a few old hard drives I have sitting around.  They remind me of an aerial view of a factory or something like that...


But they especially remind me of the Nazca Lines in Peru:

Better Late Than Never

Our holiday cider finally finished clearing, a couple of weeks into the new year.  I would've liked to have been able to give out some of it over Christmas, but the cold weather decided otherwise.

Oh yeah...

I am not sure why I never put this one up.  It was part of Melissa's christmas
present and hangs in the dining room.  It also represents the first year of Wolham wine.

Mold... I Think


Fisheye

These are with an old fisheye adapter for manual focus lenses I picked up the other day.  There is only a couple since it is a little hard to get sharp focus with, I just need to play with a bit more.

Some Old Random Shots

I was tidying up my picture files this morning and pulled out a few random shots to work on, since I haven't taken much lately.  I'm going to put in a break so click the picture to see the rest.

My New Mini-Studio



I got the last couple of pieces for my light-box on Thursday.  It is actually quite nice and I can set it all up in about ten minutes.  Eventually I would like to have a nice set of strobes but can't really justify it at the moment.    This whole set up only set me back about $60 though, I'm calling it a christmas present to myself.  I really hope to progress my macro photography and this will help me with lighting, so I am pretty excited.  I have only been able to play with it for about an hour so far and have a lot to learn but the results look OK so far.
