I'll Show You Mine if You Show Me Yours Mon Aug 18
Comments (27)Thanks for the nice comments, everyone! I'm always happy to show my baskets and talk about basket weaving. :O) I'm currently teaching myself to weave with homegrown willow. It's a b*tch! but so worth every moment of the struggle. nicole, get the 'Pine Needle Basketry' book by Judy Mallow from your local library or amazon/ebay/half.com!

Starting with the none-too-bright LCD display of the camera, which is hard enough to see in brightly lit conditions, put it in the waterproof case which adds another layer of plastic, and then add in the swim mask your are wearing which is usually a little bit fogged, and it is mostly a guess as to what you are taking a picture of. The fact that the sea urchin in the earlier images is centered and in focus, at the equivalent of a 300mm zoom is beyond lucky. On one of the three attempts at snorkeling on the island the glass lens of the waterproof case fogged up, pretty much ruining most of that set of images. Below is the best one of that set straight from the camera, and after post-processing....See MoreI'll Show You Mine if You Show Me Yours Mon Aug 29
Comments (14)Big bug (1" or more) that kept bouncing off of the door's glass panel last night. It flew to the lights when I went to see what was making all the noise. Anyone know what it is?...See MoreI'll Show You Mine if You Show Me Yours Mon Aug 07
