The white socks and loafers weren't cutting it.

Here's one from the Lunch at the Lake Series. I tweaked this one a little.

I took this shot the other day as something standing for the letter "D". Gotta work on "E" today. No, it won't be eggs. The set up shot is on my flickr page.

Never trust the M&ms gang, especially Ms Green. She convinced Bob he was safe.

Prime Hook

Some photos I took at Prime Hook Wildlife Refuge.



This is some kind of moss I think. I'll have to check with the biologists I work with. I've never noticed any before. It reminds me of the Spanish Moss I used to see in South Carolina.



It seems one bird (an owl) had a good day, and another bird had his last day.

Rambo Peeps Tale

John Rambo never felt normal in society. It was only in the jungle that he felt safe. The woods were the next best place for him.



Rambo knew he could live off the land based on his training.



The first night out was rough. He had no time to build a shelter. Instead he found a quiet place and just rested. John felt like he was being watched.


The next day, John and the Natives met. They soon became friends and they showed John a better place to sleep.



The natives warned John to never go into the Valley of the S'mores. Unspeakable things were done by Huge beings known as "Boy Scouts" and "Girl Scouts" to Peeps that were caught in the valley of the S'mores. Peeps had been speared on sticks and slow roasted over flames, or set fire too before being covered in chocolate and graham crackers.



John used his training and showed the other Peeps how to camoflage themselves while in the Valley of the Smores.


The end.

My brother in law has a Full custom Bourget motorcycle, amongst other toys. We went over to their house tonight for a bit, and he happened to be there and I had all my gear. Anyways I set this up in his driveway with a carbon based voice activated light stand (his wife, Loretta), Canon 430Ex flash, pocket wizards camera left, sunshine camera right. I'm pretty happy with the shot. I have some others posted on my Flickr page. The only thing I'm not liking is the white socks. He switched out to some cool boots he has and we added his Black Lab in the other photos. I think the light was a little overdone in the other pics, so I liked this best.

I also got some shots of him riding the bike in his development.

I want to try some stuff I saw on Scott Kelby's blog, but that'll have to be tomorrow since I'm wiped out tonight!

What's the difference between a Harley Davidson and a Hoover Vacuum Cleaner? The location of the Dirtbag!

We planted a bunch of these in the back yard last fall. That's a real act of faith when it's cold and you put the bulbs in the ground, wondering how they're going to look next spring. They were several different varieties, so they're in different stages of growth. There are 2 versions of this shot, one portrait and one landscape. I like the portrait version best. Check out the Bokeh!

Peaches had her first bath last night. She's so much softer now. She's a real sweetie!
