This Sunday Stills was hard for me because I don’t have a pet, but going through IPhoto I found this old picture I had of my last pet. World meet Mykiy.
Let me tell you a little bit about Mykiy the wonder cat. I had her for 14 years. She was always waiting for me at the door when I got off work, and almost always came to me when I called her. I loved that cat like she was a member of the family. When she died my family helped me to bury her outside the back window where I can see her cross whenever I want. I still go out sometimes and talk to her when I have has a really bad day, she used to sit on chest when I had a really rough time. I don’t know how she knew but she always sensed when I was having a rough time. I don’t think I can ever replace her and that is why I haven’t. She was truly my last pet.
On a side note I hope I have better luck next week getting out and actually taking some decent pictures.
The new sunday stills is up, this one is not going to be very easy for me because i don’t have any pets, People around me do though so it looks like I am going visiting today. One thing about these challenges is that I am getting some really good visiting done. I have only been doing these for three weeks and had no idea it had been going on for a year now. Happy Anniversary everyone.
Anyone who has been around the past year knows this upcoming weeks challenge is the 1 year anniversary of Sunday Stills. So I figure we should do the very first challenge we did on December 6th 2008. We started with only a few contributors and have grown into a nice little community of bloggers which I’m proud to be part of.
Here is to another year of fun….Ed
Really good article on the use of light in Photos.
How to improve your photos without spending a dime | Digital Photo | Digital Photo | Macworld: “As a photographer, it’s easy to get preoccupied with questions about gear. Do you have enough pixels? Do you need a better lens? While these concerns are warranted, there is something photographers need more than any piece of gear: good light.”
I never knew this trick, will come in handy when my service seems slow.
If you Option-Click the Airport Menu you can get extended information about the wireless network you are connected to (and the ones you’re not as well), including Channel information, MAC address of the access point, signal strength, and the transmission rate. This is Snow Leopard only, if you haven’t upgraded to Snow Leopard yet and your Mac is compatible, it’s highly recommended.

This weeks Sunday Stills is The Letter “T,” Very appropriate for me cause I am Tired with a capital T. I am posting it today because I probably will not have time the rest of the week.
We were asked to be creative this week so this is my attempt. Sunday is the Only day of the week that I have time to do stuff so these challenges work perfect with my schedule.
I started back on night shift this week, working from Seven PM until Seven AM. This picture is what I looked like at three something in the morning my first night, Very Tired, I shot it with Photobooth on my Macbook during a break.
I don’t drink coffee very much but I could not have made it this week without my Thermos full of Coffee.
I spent most of the first night checking the Time wondering when it was going to be over. and knowing it wasn’t going to be soon enough.
After I woke up this afternoon and had to find some T’s to photograph I went around the house and started taking pictures of stuff with a “T” Here is what I came up with.
First I went to my computer to see if I had anything that would work on my hard drive, I didn’t but my keyboard had a big T and it allowed to play around with the macro stuff, I really like this Photo actually.
I collect Bottles and the one pictured is one of my favorites. Cabo Wabo Tequila, very smooth by the way.
This shot is a blanket that usually hangs off the back of my sofa. But I just couldn’t do something with a T and not include Texas.
This is TUMI, he hangs on my wall because it is good luck to have him there.
These last two are actually my favorite shots I have taken with my new camera. And Trees are all about the “T” right?
If you made it this far, thank you. If you would like to see the full size collection you can find it here
Small collage from the year between last Thanksgiving and this one.
I love this song, I was reminded of it watching Flash Forward on ABC. Wanted to get up so I could enjoy it on multiple occasions.
Trees……I love trees and here is a great shot of one.
A couple of years ago Camino was the only browser I used. I still think it is better than firefox, although it doesn’t have all the bells and whistles of that browser. But I am not really a bells and whistles kind of guy.
Camino 2.0: “
Tons of new features and improvements. I’m going to give it a shot as my daily browser.

Is Criminal Minds the best show on Television right now or what? It is like Silence of the lambs every week on my Television. I used to like Law & Order but since the schedule change I never get to see it anymore. So Criminal Minds is my favorite show at the moment. I am really pissed that I missed “V” for the last couple of weeks because I didn’t know it came on at the same time as NCIS, I know now though so I wont miss next week.
ABC sucks at promoting shows.
