    Seriuosly, one of the coolest books I've read in a LONG time.  If you are a geek that grew up in the 80s, you gotta read this book.

    This was gift from a dear friend.  Although it is a children's book, it was fun to read.

Project 365 - Day 11

I blew it.  I missed Day 10.  I'll have to do a two-fer before the end of the weekend.  Today's pic was thought of a while ago. I just had to wait for the reinforcements to arrive.  Another fun picture to put together.

Project 365 - Day 8 & 9

I was so not inspired yesterday.  Finally saw an opportunity to take a picture of one of our dogs, Alika.  Thing is, he REALLY doesn't like his picture being taken.  He was asleep and I forgot to turn off the flash, he woke up with red-eye reduction and voila! The look of surprise he displays.

Day 8

 

Day 9 was a lot more fun.  I was cleaning up the garage when I came across my Bird of Prey.  Inspired by an image a friend of mine drew in Junior High School, and the line in Alien 3 (Don't look back!!! Just run!!!)I combined my two favorite franchises into the insanity that is Day 9.

Take a look at the full size photo in my photo gallery.

Project 365 - Day 6 & 7

Couldn't come up with anything significant for Day 6, till I put down the controller.  Simple and to the point.

Day 7 was a little more fun to put together, put I couldn't get the lighting just right.  I'm sure I'll be revisiting game night some time in the future.

Project 365 - Day 5

The Troopers are back.  For those of you that get the reference, I guess I'm showing my age.  For those of you that don't get it, Google it.  It was a genuinely funny show back in the day.  They just don't make 'em like they used to.

Project 365 - Day 4

The troopers decided to take a day off so Yoshi is making his first appearance on the P365.  Surprisingly, he was very calm and only decided to bite at the camera when I was done taking pictures.

I haven't modified any of the pics so far.  Everything is as it came off the camera.  I've been reading about HDR photography, might try my hand at it either this weekend or next.
