Alison: Day 13: gloom-a-doom.

looks awful nasty out, but really it was just cold.

Jared Day 13: Steve Irwin Would Be Pissed!

Yeah, This here is a close up of one of my crocodile skin boots. I thought it looked kinda cool with the light hitting it so I snapped this right quick so I can go to sleep now.

Day 13: Alison's Christmas Tree

I think I warned you guys about the number of Christmas tree photos you might see from me. I like exploring the different lighting. You know, blah blah blah.

Here's what I got tonight:

Harry: Day 13

Well, finally, I took a photo today that I'm a good deal happier with than most of the last few I've taken. I spent a while with these pipes at the hockey arena earlier. I may post a few more tomorrow. I couldn't quite decide if i liked this one more or some of the wider shots, but for now I think I like this one more.

Jason: Day 13, 14, 15,16, 17, 18

I have been a bum lately. Here are the pictures I have taken on the specified days.

Day 13
I have seen this pile of parts for many days now and decided to take a photo. It is very out of the ordinary and catches my eye every day. It is on the sidewalk on the east side of 34th Street here in Gainesville.

Day 14
I took this photo on a rainy day while I was waiting for Lily Rose to come pick me up from work. I like how you can clearly tell that there is a great distance between the trees in the foreground and the trees in the background.

Day 15: "Why Is Everything Wet?"
This bathroom, located at Shands, is always this wet on the counters. It's the most notorious one that I know of at Shands. I took the photo when it made me think of the Dane Cook joke about everything being so wet in public restrooms.

Day 16: "STOP ...And Think"
I took this photo at first to see what the stickers on the stop sign said, but I couldn't figure it out until just now. I did some basic equalizing and desaturated the photo for dramatic effect.

Day 17
I took this photo late on the 31st. I saw the moon and whatever planet that was supposed to be lined up this way and thought it made for a good photo. The shot was a bit shaky, but I think it turned out great. I did some brightness/contrast adjusting and desaturated the picture for the final effect.

Day 18: David Archuleta
I got off work around 2pm and Lily Rose wanted to go see David Archuleta, who was playing at a local restaurant. It was packed by the time we got there, so no way to get a good shot. Unless I climbed up that tree... lol. Anyway, my apologies for the blurriness, but this is the best I could do.

Alison, Day # 13: this or that?

Once again, I can't decide! I was on my home yesterday and knew exactly what I was going to take a photograph of for yesterday's entry. But then I couldn't decide if I thought it would look better in black and white, or in color. What do you guys think?

This is the National Forestry property line marker. It's in our yard. I wanted to give you guys an idea of what kind of area I live in. And hopefully give your imaginations a nice morsel to develop an image in your heads of the world in which I live. I'm hoping the photographs you all post will do the same for me.

Also, another bit that might help your imaginations (too bad I didn't have my camera in hand for this . . .), I was going around a curve this morning on my way to work, and through the hazy fog I saw this large -- nay, enormous black silhouette. It's standing in the road, so I slow to almost a stop (dangerous! in a curve!) and as my eyes focus, I realize it's an incredibly large black bear! INCREDIBLY LARGE! He just stared at me, seeming to hope he were invisible, then when we actually saw one another, he bolted. It was amazing.

Mat Ryan: January 12 and 13

On the left: the only picture that I took yesterday. The moon was full, well, waning, and I really wanted to get a picture of it, I even put my tripod in the car, but I had such a hard time concentrating after driving back from Boston from dropping off my bosses dad that I just couldn't focus. And nor could my camera. I think the picture reflects my mood very well.
On the right: I went to a Dartmouth girls hockey game tonight, and it was fantastic. Dartmouth rocked Providence 7-3. At least I think that's what the score was, either way, Dartmouth kicked ass. Anyways, a lot of the shots look the same since it's hockey and it was my first time photographing sports, but this one makes me laugh since the girls are headbutting each other.

Lily Rose Day 13: Put Your Mouth On My Bloodied Knees

It's been raining in Gainesville the past couple of days, so it's been hard to get out of my apartment to run errands, much less take pictures. However, I braved the storm to go to Publix to get some groceries, and even though it was raining, like any true Floridian I wore flip flops. Well, I almost ate it on the way inside, but I managed to somehow balance and catch myself. I was not so lucky on the way back out however; it had started raining harder and I made it all the way to my car door and ate it HARD! I landed with my right leg outstretched in front of me and my left leg bent up underneath me. :( So this is the physical damage I sustained, though my ego is far more bruised especially since there was a man getting into the car in front of mine. I will give him credit though, he didn't actually come help me climb up the side of my car, he did ask if I was ok and was observant enough to say "Wow, that looked like it hurt!" AHAHAHAHA Hey Thanks a bunch man!

13th January 2009

That´s the church of my hometown Petzenkirchen. I made the photo right in front of our house, so you can see how close I live to it! ; )
