Shoe fetish

So, at said wedding, I snuck around as agilely as possible on my heels, and snapped several pictures of this man's feet. I was quite taken with his footwear. I hope he did not find me to be odd. Do you all prefer the B&W or the color? And do you think I ought to crop it more? I like the contrast with the pants.

Colors, spices, fun

In May, I had the privilege of attending my first Indian wedding. Amazing. Unfortunately, I only had a point and shoot with me, as I was traveling. Big regret. Anyhow, here are a few shots. None of them were exactly quite right (in 3 kids, would prefer not to have legs of 4th kid, for example) but I had a great time. Congrats N&M!

Mr. Toad's

State Fair, 2006. Unfortunately, overexposed, however I rather like it that way. As if the passengers are flying above the tent tops, the street lamps, suspended in a happier time.

It's what's for dinner

When I was assigned to the Western part of the state, as previously mentioned in prior installments of this irregular online periodical, I took a photo and "posterized" it in GIMP. Kinda liked the effect.

Looking ahead

I wonder what lies ahead in 2010. The days go so quickly now, running alongside the years. This is Diana's finger. And her pointer. (the dog AND the finger, ha ha). I used to ravenously read and read Greek mythology in elementary school. I knew exactly who had sprung from whose head, and who they poisoned later with the help of what beast after having fathered how many children with which water sprite. Sadly this reading time has now been replaced with highly technical jargonese that is nowhere as entertaining. Yes I know Diana is Roman.

Goodbye, 2009
