The stairwell of the parking garage in Portsmouth, NH. I've always liked the red and yellow paint scheme.

Colorful Cabins
029/365
Very colorful lakefront summer cabins in the snow. There are about 8 of the cabins in all, each a different color. They are too close to Route 4 to really get a shot of all of them at once.

Sewing Kit
028/365
Spools of thread in my mini sewing kit which I only bought because I needed a pin to make a pinhole camera and it was basically the same price as buying a package of needles.

Still Life with Plant
027/365
I went to a local restuarant for lunch and took this shot at my table while waiting for my sandwich. The place is called Stefano's.

Yellow Stairwell
026/365
The stairwell at a local school. I keep driving by this and thinking I like the way it looks so I decided to get a shot of it this time.

Office
025/365
This is the building I rent office space with a friend. We both telecommute to software jobs on the other side of the country. I'd taken a shot of this before 2011 but not with snow. My co-workers in AZ wanted to see it so I thought a shot on a snow day would be good.

The Better to Hear You With

A macro shot of Olivia's black ear, which as you can see has quite a bit of white fur as well.

Scorpion Sucker
020/365
OK so on the East coast we call these lollipops not suckers but Scorpion Sucker does sound better. I'm going to post an alternate as well but I think you have to admit the tension of having a scorpion facing you, even when encased in sugar, overrides any focus issues. This was in the goodie bags that the company gave out at the reception.

Cactus

Just a standard top-down cactus shot. I had arrived at my hotel in AZ not long before and was tired, hungry, and a bit annoyed :)

Wall of Apricot
018/365
Macro shot of some dried apricots. Didn't have a lot of time because I have to go on a business trip tomorrow. This also means I won't be posting again till Friday or Saturday. I don't want anyone to think I'm quitting.

Hanging Weight
017/365
An old mill building in Dover, NH with fire escape stairs going down the back. This pulley and weight keep the bottom-most portion of the stairs up from the ground. I like what Toy Camera preset did with the bricks and boarded windows.

End of day
016/365
Days are getting longer but the sun gets behind tall trees and seems to set sooner.

Trail to the Woods
015/365
An animal track of some sort heading toward the woods. I like the curves before it heads off diagonally to the left. Although this would be a good candidate for B&W I like that in color it gives a feeling of bleak winter.

Marble Pyramid
013/365
A pyramid of green marbles shot in a makeshift "studio" with dark background and side light (admittedly harsh). Silly putty (which you can see) was used to anchor the marbles.
This was really just an experiment to see how it would work. The S95 doesn't have great macro focusing unfortunately.

Spectrum

This is a macro shot of a visible light spectrum that was showing on the wall of my office this morning.
You really need to click through to see the shot of the suncatcher that made this spectrum.

Ready to Write
010/365
Mug of hot chocolate, pen, and cool-looking journal. I'm attending a free fiction workshop tonight at the local bookstore. I liked what the Toy Camera preset did with the red on the cover.

Winter Shadow

A long shadow over a pond. My first post-processing using Aperture which I bought through the new Mac App Store.

Dead Soldier
008/365
A toy soldier Christmas decoration that someone apparently tossed off Memorial Bridge and which is now stranded on the river ice until Spring.
This makes me think of my grandfather - a military man - for two reasons: 1) he always had toy soldier decorations leading up the front steps of his home at Christmas, and 2) at family gatherings empty bottles were known as dead soldiers.

My shower curtain. This wasn't the shot I had been planning to make but my original idea just wasn't coming together.

Hazel

My eye. I had hoped to get closer but my camera just can't focus closer and this is pretty heavily cropped as a result.

Rows of Orange
004/265
Orange is my favorite color so of course I have an orange sweater and it seemed like a good macro shot on a cold January day.
