W. Haisley Lynch
2008-04-04 14:34:00 After a few hours at the local park, I noticed this obscure plaque honoring W. Haisley Lynch, one of Alachua County's World War I soldiers. In total, 43 men and women from Alachua County died, but W. Haisley Lynch was the only combat casualty.
UFO Sighting?
2008-04-03 17:11:00 My youngest daughter is in the habit of taking my phone and shooting random photos without me knowing. It’s cute and I’m treated to a surprise when I try saving a photo, only to discover that the memory is full. I delete a lot of the photos, but some are keepers, like this one. So it’s ...

Where Are My Keys? Outside. In the Road.
2008-03-27 18:03:00 No really. They're IN the road. What happens to all of the trash on the road? Some of it gets picked up, some of it gets washed away by the rain. But some of it - usually small and metal - gets compressed into the asphalt. More About: Road , Keys , The Road
Divebomb!
2008-03-25 12:32:00 Feeling inspired by Dan’s Friday Flock photo post, I tried my hand at some bird watching yesterday (if you consider birdwatching to be looking up while walking through the parking lot…). Being on the edge of a town that borders Paynes Prairie, nature’s garbage haulers are constantly flying overhead. I sometimes wonder if they might ...
Susan Has a Black Eye
2008-03-19 21:52:00 Here’s a shot of the first black-eyed Susan bloom growing in front of my bedroom window. They are the result of a mixed wildflower seed box that was haphazardly scattered onto what used to be the home for a few dying azalea bushes. It was a temporary measure, but they came back again this year, ... More About: Black
A Strip Mall Never Looked So Good
2008-03-18 04:05:00 Jeez, I get 60 RSS subscribers and it goes to my head. No posts in a week! Well, I can assure you that I’ve left Cloud 9 and have resumed the life of the mundane, as portrayed in this most plain shot of a sunset viewed from a strip mall parking lot. Of course, I had ...

Easy Partial-Color Imaging in Picasa2
2008-03-06 18:00:00 Back in late February, I posted a camera phone photo of some ferns with a tree bark background. The photo was edited in Picasa2 using the “Focal B&W” effect which allowed me to retain the green color information while discarding the rest. In this tutorial, I’ll show you exactly how I did it.

The Black-and-White Obsession Continues
2008-02-28 15:21:00 I almost used the word “fetish” instead of “obsession,” but then I thought that might attract seekers of adult entertainment. But who in the heck would have a fence fetish? Well, there’s that guy who literally loves his car and that other guy who likes sleeping with his motorcycle. But a fence lover? Nah. Impossible. ...

Barking Ferns
2008-02-25 06:08:00 In spite of it being February, you would think Spring is here. I don’t think anybody told the plants what month it was, but then again, what do we know. This fern - and anything around it that blooms - say otherwise. On a side note, Diane at Much of a Muchness celebrated her first year ...
