A Sure Sign That Spring is Here (besides baseball):

My azaleas are in full bloom. I took pictures now, because they'll look simply like bushes quite soon. They're beautiful, but they sure don't last long.









Nice, huh?

And here it is, your moment of cute-zen.

A REAL Bart's Eye View!

Seriously, that's about what it looks like when I'm driving. Okay, Maybe my eyes are a little higher and about 4 inches farther back, but that's pretty close to what it looks like to me as I drive off campus and make my way to the Baltimore Beltway for my commute home.

Photo Hunt: Road

I finally took one specifically for the assignment! And I thought like good ol' David McMahon taught me too...go for the weird angle. Which TOTALLY got me a weird look from a motorist as I rolled out of the way. I'm sure he was wondering why the lunatic was laying face down in the middle of the road...

Photo Hunt: Dark

Dark room...only light coming from sparse Christmas lights, the computer monitors, and the light from outside the room.

So, I Got The Creative Bug Friday...

And I asked my glowing wife if she wanted to do some impromptu portrait shots. To her credit, she agreed. I took what I thought were the best, and have set up this Flickr slideshow for your viewing pleasure:

Portraits of Jessie.

I'm kinda partial to when she spontaneously starting laughing at either something I said or did.

Photo Hunt: Cloud(s)

Ah, clouds. I likey the clouds. Here's a shot from an impending torrential thunderstorm before an Orioles game last August:

Then there's this shot, taken out of car window while running an errand.

And the coup de grace, a shot from an airplane window while en route to Vegas.

Photo Hunt: Emotion(s)

Here we go with this weeks Photo Hunt for me. I bevy of emotion. On the left is my coworker Mike, who really really looooves to get his photo taken, on the right, a student employee Jessie who can't help but smile when a camera is pointed in her direction. Kind of an interesting study in contrasting emotions when faced with the same situation, eh?

Photo Hunt: Bad Hair

My entry once again plays it fast and loose with the concept of "bad hair." See, as I see it, that cat toy is hairy. And my cat (then a kitten) was definitely taking a swipe at it. As if to say "you are some bad hair. Take that."

Wish Me Luck

Not only because I'm gonna be a father in approximately 136 days and I'll need all the luck I'm gonna need, but because I entered this contest with about 8 photos. I'm not about to pay for a camera like this right now, but if I could win one? Yeah.
