"oop ack"
String cheese from the Pittsburgh Google office. Google folks find the brand name amusing.
I like the Moooooooooon. Even with a 200mm lens + 1.5 crop factor, the moon is still awfully small. This is a 100% crop :-|
The wall behind the altar at First Church.
Bag of fun before loading.
Bag of fun. loaded.
BLOONZ!

Another thistle.
Just a closer crop with thee.

I was spending the day in the Pittsburgh Google office, when we say a huge amount of water being disgorged down into the gorge. Being nerds, we thought "water main break! Cool! Let's go watch!"
Water cascading down Forbes. It was not raining that day.
Water going through the wheel. yum.
Chunks of asphalt being lifted up by the water.
Mom sent me this frog. It's so cute!
Somehow, this needs no caption.
I took the camera out in the back yard before all of the snow melted. Here are last year's remnants on our watermelon tree.
Tentacle monster temporarily foiled by the Company 12 foam truck.
Tiny bridge to nowhere. But you get there *fast*!
I'd like a tree without so much frosting on it please. I'm on a diet.
Pine tree gives us the finger.
Luckily the laser turret's mechanism is out for repairs, otherwise things could get messy.
I'm really Lichen this camera.
Experiment with the new flash. I think we need to dust.
Vikki on her tissue paper.
ISO 25,600 is actually pretty cool in B&W. Those stripes in the star-field are actually part of the flag (cheapo chinese printed thing I got from the Elks on Flag Day)
First church, seeing what some high-ISO stuff would look like, prior to Crazy Erin's hitching.
Let's Got Sports-oriented Head On A Stick!
I wonder if these folks would mind if we dropped off some of our trash here.
Darth Duckie's duckies.
OMG!
And perhaps one of the most random photos here. The Glass of Babajaga?
A still life I stumbled upon in the kitchen.
Nope, still doesn't need any explanation.
Just in case you needed some blown-out remodles.
Welcome To Pittsburgh! visitors. Enjoying Your Stay! We are hoping are you.

No. Really. I don't have a problem. I can stop at any time.
Wow. There's a floor here.
Uh, right here? In public?
A regular style photograph. Note the depth of field and how stuff goes blur-styles at the top and bottom.
And with the front part of the 45mm PC lens tilted down about 8°. Much more betterer focus front to back.
I'm out in CA, and am feeling a bit ill, and needed a thermometer. This is all I could find. It's very pink.
I am *so* glad I don't work full-time in this google office.

No, I don't have a problem. Really.
Sunrise out the airplane flying to Frankfurt. This is over someplace in England.
Another moonshot.
Before heading to Kloster Eberbach to teach a class, I stayed at a GuestHouse. A nice place, but the bathroom was a bit small. I didn't run into myself too many times there.
As was the room. But it was big enough to hold me and my stuff.
The view out the window.
And people wonder why I sometimes have problems getting my work done.

Bork on trombone.
AHHH!! THE ALL-SEEING EYE!!!
Mom wanted some shots of the "new" "studio" space.
"The Sound of Music." I use stickynotes™ to mark stuff in my part when playing a musical, and during the final performance I collect them. (no erasing parts! yay!) The block of wood was provided by the director so we could level our chairs
Same photo as before, but with different processing.
huh. Depth of field works through reflections.

2000 exposures, and I got a panning shot! woo!
