A lava tube cave we spent all afternoon searching for in Puu Huluhulu, Hawaii.
Good morning, beloved one!
Photo flashback friday
2006, researching/taking photos for a project at the Chesapeake Bay Foundation HQ
A photo is worth $100
and/or about 600 calories.
Foxie's Hangout. Yumm. Victoria, Australia.
Bird's eye (or kookaburra's eye)
Finally importing my images and findings from Australia.
And by finally I mean "surely but slowly"…
Double expose
Only really half here, in Myer, Melbourne, AU
Workshop
I'm in a bathroom that looks like this:
Somewhere in Melbourne?
Don't trust this cat
Pointillism fireworks
Congrats on your happy and healthy new year!*
* despite the timestamp, it is 1/1/2012 here in the southern hemisphere.
(Yes, I am in the future. Now excuse me while I joy ride in my rocket car.)
Color & type in the city
Found at Myer, my second favorite palette for fall.
Found at grill'd, interesting type choice.
Baroque
I shall call it Pronk, or Still Life in a Fancy Kitchen.
Xxmas day in Mt Eliza, AU
Filters (I mean, camera apps) seem to be all the rage and are making news:
Hipstermatic in SF
Instagraming social network
Sadly, I have used my Nikon a totally of once so far while on holiday. Now my iPhone 4S is ruling my photography life, I'm editing with Camera+.app and sharing with Batch (pretty much due to laziness and/or convenience). Today I went hybrid and played with Hipster.app and added some dazzle with Photoshop (the IRL/not-iOS-version).
Auslandia
My job was to decorate for the holiday lunch. Chopped some arms off the tree. Stuck birds on them. BAM — instant table art.
Portsea, Peninsula
Australia doesn't need filters.
Mornington
Mornington is the afternoon…ton.
Geography lesson
Australia looks like a prancing hamster...
...when you look at it upside down
...and squint your eyes
...and use your child-like imagination.
Anyway, I'm off to the land of hamsters. Cya next year!
Bright, Vic, Australia
I must be a silly American, because I thought the second you land in Australia you see kangaroos hopping around. Well, not exactly. Drive three hours north to Bright and you'll find some roos. Which are basically timid tripods with t-rex arms. And I love them all.
Being in a Vermeer in Delft
Sorting through some of my photos from the Netherlands, I'm *almost certain that I walked through a Vermeer painting. Below is The Little Street, an unknown location which he painted. But look at my evidence! I found The Little Street!
* Yeah, I'm exaggerating.

Viva
Circus Circus. Dirty, low minimum bets, & footlongs.
Huge interactive type, yes please!
The M&M store has the complete rainbow of chocolate covered candies. I needed olive and mustard, my current favorite palette.
In reality, he eventually had exactly zero riches, and his entire life was inventoried and auctioned off. So, to be more accurate, this machine should rewards winners with paint brushes, silk scarves & fancy hats.
Faux France
Faux France even has a Hector Guimard nouveau style metro shelter. If I'm not mistaken, there is only one original still in use today. I'll have to go to France to confirm :)
Jenny-approved gambling
Even the Beatles have a Cirque du Soleil show. Now available on iTunes.
