April 15, 2008 – Bay Clouds
I know this is a video in a year long “picture a day” project, but I allowed myself that when I started. I love animation and thought I’d try out Flickr’s video with this piece. (Besides, it’s really 250 still images!)
Shot with a 100m lens on my Canon 10D, I stood there for 15 minutes counting 1, 2, 3, click, 1, 2, 3, click – 250 times. I then imported the images into Lightroom, processed them for the funky look, exported and imported into Premiere to make the video. The stuff that looks like dirt on film is actually birds flying by.

April 12, 2008 – Skull Head Spider
I was shooting some macro shots this afternoon to take advantage of a Canon 40D that I was able to use for a couple days. This image is a macro shot of a small spider in our garage. His body is only about an 1/8 of an inch, so I didn’t see what he really looks like until after I took the shots.
Most stunning is his head looks exactly like a skull. Second most stunning is that his entire body looks like it’s made of glass.
I’m looking up what kind of spider it is and will post when I know. I’m sure it’s closely related to daddy long legs.
April 11, 2008 – Japanese Maple
Spring has done its job; the Japanese Maples in our front yard are full again. There are even some leaves that just sprout out from the trunk. They have very big dreams.
This is the same tree that was losing its last leaves in January. As seen here.
