May 7th - Bio Domes

When I shot this earlier today it just a silly experiment, but now it's looking like it's my post for the day. Lots going on tonight and I don't think I'll get a chance to shoot any more.

May 6th - Can You Hear Me Major Tom?

I have this light bulb, a mini-spot I think it is, with different kind of electrical connections (a "g" something or other I think) - it's been sitting on my desk and I've always thought it looks like the old Gemini spacecraft. Out of time and ideas tonight, I thought I'd shoot it. One strobe directly overhead thru DIY Grid Spot. I used photoshop to clone out the thread that suspended it.

>>>Edit - It looked a little boring so I added some "stars" with photoshop.

May 5th - Sinko de Mayo

Not much more I can say - the title says it all.

May 4th - A Night at the Museum Market

Ever wonder what the store looks like after the doors are closed and the lights turned off? Well, the lights come back on and then the night crew comes in and the aisles look like this. When I did this post in February, it was not fiction, and now I've had to take on a couple of part time jobs to make ends meet. (and I'm hoping they meet soon). Anyway, I knew I would be tired tonight, so I took my camera in and shot this at breaktime. Good thing too, because I'm too tired to shoot anything else!

May 3rd - The Tulip Barn

After living in this area for nearly 40 years, I finally went to see the tulips. Oh I've seen them before many times but never at less than 50 M.P.H. Today I went and did the tourist thing, actually walking thru the fields I and shot 55 photos in about 25 minutes. As I was leaving, I noticed the barn across the field of tulips and shot a 56th. It turned out to be my favorite.

May 2nd - Speaking of Vinyl...

Our theme this week is "Co-Workers". I picked the theme, and I had something in mind to photograph a co-worker the other day, but things got really busy and we never had time so it didn't happen.

Then this morning, another co-worker of mine stopped by the house and dropped off this USB turntable for playing old vinyl records and recording tunes into a computer. So I've been playing with this for a while tonight, and just realized - here's my "Co-Worker" photo for the week.

And the title is referring to Lance's post from Wednesday.

May 1st - The Dinghy Float

I almost shot another photo of my 747, this time pointing straight down or flying inverted or something, in honor of "Mayday"... (you know: "Mayday! - Mayday! We're going down!"), but I thought maybe 2 was enough already, so instead it's a nice peaceful scene from our quaint little seaside village. This is a nighttime view of the dinghy float at the Port of Friday Harbor Marina.
