Leaf in Water
Bad blogger... this is where I got in trouble with my last two blogs. : P
I'm up to 698 photos for the challenge! Only 184 to go... I know I have it MORE than covered, though. I just got back from a 4-day vacation to Texas Hill Country, and took nearly 400 photos while I was there. Presuming at least half of them came out, I will be able to use those to meet my deadline!!! :D
One problem though... I only had 144 MB worth of card space on my cam. I could take a certain amount of photos with that, and upload them to my friend's laptop so my cards were clear for the next round. I didn't want to wait for him to burn a DVD for me, so I decided to use his laptop to upload them set to private on my Flickr Page. This worked like a charm, I could easily download them to my comp when I got home, and now my cards were both empty and ready for more pics! This went on for some time...
Now I'm paying for it. I didn't realize until now that there is no way to mass-dowload pics. So I have to go into All-Sizes, select Original, and download them individually... X.x
I'm about halfway done... and only have about a week to get them processed and uploaded! : O
Wish me luck...

Waiting...
Eagerly awaiting the first of November, when the photo challenge begins. The objective: to fill up 49 pages of my Flickr account in the space of two months. That means I have 71 days as of Saturday to take 882 photos! : D

Today I made the amazing discovery that my camera, an Olympus C4000z I've owned for five years, records! Awesome...

Dragonfly
This morning was the first of the chilly days... I found this poor guy impaired by the chill and paralyzed on my doorknob this morning. I thought he was dead, but his legs twitched when I tried to take him down. Seeing as he was indeed alive, I decided to take advantage of his disability... when I got back with my camera, he had moved to the mat. This is why you have a lovely view of all the cat hair on my porch. : )
He flew off five minutes later when he had warmed up.

Iris
Iris decided to participate in Nummy-Nummies last night! It was pretty funny, as testified by Chloe's facial expression and ear-posture... ; )

Noah
He's so hard to photograph. But I thought this one came out nicely. 1 out of 100 photos I take of him do! : )

Morning Glory
Non-hybridized morning glory I found in my backyard... it's a loner! I've never seen morning glories around here... mostly we have crepe myrtle, hibiscus, azaleas, and dandelions!

CrabSpider
I dedicate this photo to Josh... who apparently has a true appreciation for spiders...
This is my first decent spider shot. This little guy has a web between one of my lawn chairs and rabbit cages on the back porch. He catches a lot of mosquitoes, so I leave him be. : )

Macro Parody
A camera with a mind of it's own! This is a shot from a couple of weeks ago. I snapped a few quick shots before running out on some errands, and then checked them once I got back. This is what I found. : )
Flaming Squirrel
I was minding my own business talking to some friends in TGG, when all of a sudden a squirrel fell down my chimney! I tried to grab it, but it burst into flames before I could...
As it was bouncing around the room igniting furniture, reading material, and precious knick-knacks, I searched desperately for the fire extinguisher, which was no where to be found. So I had to call the fire department. I waited, and waited... took some pics, toasted marshmallows, waited some more. By the time they arrived, half my living room was aflame!
When I finally got back to TGG, Maria was skeptical about my story, so I took this photo especially for her benefit...

Let's see how this goes...
Like I really need one more blog right? I find that a personal blog no longer has the appeal it used to, so "Musings on the Meaning of Liff" is going by the wayside... I don't like writing about myself, so I never get around to updating it! I want to write about something I love, and enjoy... so here I am, to disclose the adventurous life I have on Flickr!
Welcome to my new blog.
