Attack of the Miscellaneous Images

This is pretty much a purge of my to blog album in Picasa. Which is a good thing, because I'm going to be posting the very best shots (IMHO) from our vacation (mostly in Utah). So, here is what was sitting around waiting to be posted.












This one is from family vacation in Idaho last year. It's right by the pool at Three Rivers Motel, if you can't tell.















This is one of our mugs sitting on our dining room table. It's a mug my dad won at an Inland Northwest Musicians concert, for the curious of you.















And this is another mug sitting on our dining room table. If I remember right, this is a cup of tea I had during a weekend home alone. I think I had the most tea that weekend I had had in a long time. I did the color isolation effect with the GIMP (our table isn't gray). What do you think?















Flowers (probably weeds) in our yard.

a fading birthday bouquet

Dad bought these for Mom on her birthday (the ninth). They're still alive, it seems. These are from yesterday afternoon; I noticed the late afternoon light on them. Color balance, brightness, and contrast tweaked with the GIMP.

Vacation Photos

Here you are... yes, finally. :p














































































some more on Facebook if you want to look at them...

not yet...

...but here's a couple pics to hold you over :p

from today

These two are at the lake not too long ago, but not today. It was actually after the Youth Arts Festival. The Deals, my mom, and I were up at the Lake after that.























And here is Joella playing piano after the Patriot's Ball.

Flowers from the past

These are my mom's sunflowers from this summer. I used a Filtered Black and White effect in Picasa2.

macro anybody?

This one was taken this summer (it's still summer, ya?).
















Alas, off to another week of school. Toodles!
