the car show was terrific and i can't wait to see whether anything i shot turns out close to what i was trying for. was very hot (for seattle anyway at about 87F) and humid and sis and i started a bit later than we thought we might so i missed about the last three blocks (out of 22) but caught this guy showing off for the people partying in the beer garden where my sis's boss and his friends were the band

Paul and I went to a tiny little carnival tonight that was set up just for the weekend.  Cotton candy, miniature ferris wheels, a fun house...the works.  My camera of course came along, and this was one of my favorite shots from the evening.  Fun ride.  Made poor Paul a little sick, but it was a fun ride.  ;-)

And yes, the tilt of the camera was deliberate.  I took one straight and it just didn't appeal to me, it didn't have the right "oomph."  So I tried again and liked the tilt much better.  It added a dynamic I liked.

Okay, I know I already uploaded a photo for today, but as I was sitting at my computer, I chanced to look out the window and see this scene and I rushed out to grab it.  The way the moon was hitting the petals on those blossoms of the tree I took this afternoon was just too gorgeous to pass up, and I thought I'd share.  Please, be lenient with me, this is a handheld shot at two seconds' shutter speed, so it's not exactly the best clarity in the world, but I didn't have time to set up a tripod, as the moon was about the go behind clouds again.  So this is what you get.

that's more or less how my day has been. started off running a bit late and almost missing my bus, progressed through arguing with fedex as to why their driver has tried to deliver a package 3 days in a row before we're open, and posted the failed delivery slip right on our hours of business sign! am i the only one that finds that a bit much?! doing errands after work had a bus break down, rarely happens but can't be helped sometimes, so missed my connection and ended up having to walk over a mile to get to an alternate route. the upside; mt. baker was beautiful with an awesome thunderhead building on its lee side, the breeze not only didn't die (as feared) it picked up so i didn't roast, there were lots of beautiful birds flying about and chirping (tho i had no time to even try a single shot alas), the exercise is certainly good for me, and i shot this sign which summed up my feelings nicely. this is actually a warning sign for a 'roundabout' (why they can't call them 'traffic circles' like everywhere else i've no idea but here in western washington they've been deemed 'roundabouts' so that is what they shall be i guess) and was a welcome sight as it meant i was less than a block from my bus stop and almost on my way home. my day wasn't actually bad just 'roundabout' and slow. hope yours was/is much better. for those interested i caught a couple more buses while out and about as a bonus
