I try to post an image daily, tho I don't necessarily shoot an image daily. I find it takes a lot of perseverance just to get a shot processed and loaded every day, and the discipline stretches me to continually improve my skills.

And of course you know the next level to which my calla lilies must go!
synapped > Beauty Never Sleeps

I couldn't resist these amazing calla lilies.  I've never seen them this color before.

Also in the Lilies gallery
synapped > You Turn My World Upside Down!

Continuing with the Valentines theme...  I saw these ostriches at the Wildlife Safari in southern Oregon and had stopped to get pix of her.  The male came running up and just hopped onto her and had his way with her.  He would slowly weave back and forth, moving his head up and down and around.   It was totally amazing!

synapped > Swim Like a Duckie with Me

Just some fun in honor of upcoming Valentines Day!  To get a real feel for the LOOOVE, check it out X2 Large!

synapped > Ever Felt Like You Just Had to Screech?

An adorable little screech owl.  He's injured, so the Oregon Zoo uses him for education.   This shot gives you the size perspective.
synapped > Pink Thoughts

I got some flowers from Trader Joes and am playing in my new el-cheapo homemade lightbox (described here).  I laid down a piece of glass on white paper, and voile!

Also in the Daisy Types gallery
synapped > Repetition of Repetitions

Practicing my refractions again, since our weather's no fun.  I wrote out an description of my setup here if you're curious.  I wrote up a new &  improved method 2/1/10)
synapped > Singularity

Resorting to archive diving, thanks to our rain!

Also in the Japanese Garden gallery
synapped > I Dream in Mist-ical Magic

The nearby lake was awash in magic that foggy morning...

Also in the Waterscapes gallery
synapped > Breakthrough

For a better view of the dewdrops, this one needs to be viewed X2 or so  :-)

I finally got out for some fog shots today.  I need to learn better metering control, especially when the sun's breaking thru the fog.  Any suggestions?

Also in the Landscapes gallery
synapped > Love and Marriage!  (Sinatra does it best)

The new ROAR exhibit at the Oregon zoo is pretty fascinating.  One lion and two lionesses are learning their roles.  

See a couple more shots in the Critters gallery and see what the fighting was all about  :0)
synapped > Dory, the Blue Fish

This one was also at the Oregon Coast Aquarium in Newport.  Check out the ISO in my exif data!  And even with that, this is the sharpest shot I could get.  Any suggestions?  I even tried flash, tho it's not allowed for many of the other tanks.

Also in the Water Critters gallery
synapped > Happiness

Doesn't this look like a picture of Happiness?!  From the Oregon Coast Aquarium sometime back.

Also in the Water Critters gallery
synapped > Peaches & Roses

Another version of rose refractions.  For an explanation of how I did this look here.

Also in the Macros gallery
synapped > Determination

-- both his and mine!  It took me years to be able to get birds in flight shots.  It's such a thrill to succeed!
