I had some time to color correct some photos I took this summer at the Sweatsville Zoo. This attraction is a unique sculpture garden of creatures made out of scrap metal near Fort Collins.

I have been playing around with some techniques I learned at a Photoshop CS3 Power Tour seminar that I attended in October.

Check out my Flickr photo set.

I saw this sign in a window yesterday when walking around at Harvard. It reminded my colleague and I of a Flickr group called “Stick Figures in Peril.” We had seen pictures of the group in Cameron Moll’s seminar at User Interface 12. I had to take a picture of this sign and add it to the pool.

They were considering including 2 of my pictures in their third edition of their Budapest Guide but needed my approval to do it. I was excited that they liked my pictures. Several weeks after I approved it, I was informed my 2 pictures are being included in their guide.

I met “Skippy” at the Kansas City Zoo. Their exhibit gives a lot of freedom for the animals to roam around their enclosure and puts you right in the middle of it. This is the closest I have ever been to a kangaroo.

See more pictures from my day at the Zoo on Flickr.

It is wild to see this two story building in this wide open space that is flanked by tall office buildings and hotels in downtown Denver.

I was really struck by how “alone” it seemed and not something I expected in the middle of a “concrete jungle.”

I got out today and took several pictures of the Denver Public Library (by Michael Graves) and the new addition to the Denver Art Museum.

I find that I think more about taking pictures or how to capture something as I am living life. My wife bought herself these flowers (I wish I could say I did it) and I thought they would make a good subject to try some photos. You can see my favorites of what I captured on Flickr.

Right now it is just some links to my photo collections on Flickr.com. I have a couple different collections including:

I only see them on occasion so it is always a treat when I see one.

This morning I had my camera so I stopped on my way to work to try to get a picture. I saw at least 5 eagles. There were several young ones that did not have white feathers yet. I spotted 2 adults sitting on the ground across the lake so I decided to walk over to try to capture them with my lens.

I was disappointed because as I got close to where I was going to stop for the picture, they took off. So I did not get a picture but I did get wet shoes because of the morning dew. I did get one picture of one in the air. It is not as good as I would like but a start.
