Spiderwebs


Have you ever tried taking a picture of a spiderweb, while holding an umbrella? It's tricky. And the pics don't always come out that great.

Me


I posted a self-portrait that showed my whole face, but then I took it down after only a few minutes. I looked thru my blog to see how many pictures there are of me (there are about 10) and in all of them my face is mostly obscured or turned away (barring this one, which was a struggle for me to post). I like the notion that I can be somewhat anonymous, or at least pretend to be.

I'm sure there's an entire discussion here about self-portraiture, the amount of overlap of the artist and their work and ego (and of course a whole lot of other things) but I shall leave that to you. Conclude what you will!

Computer Cleaning IV


More "art" from the inside of the Dell.

Computer Cleaning III


This is like abstract art! This is the heat sink and a fan in my parent's Dell. I took pictures to help me remember how to put everything back together once it was clean.

Computer Cleaning II


UGH! More like dust monsters, not dust bunnies.

Computer Cleaning I


When was the last time you cracked open your desktop computer and cleaned out the inside? How about 6 years? That is the amount of dust you see collected on the fans and inside of my computer. Six years of sucking in dust and having it hang out on wires, fans and the other mysterious junk that compose the guts of a eMachine. (Yes, I own an eMachine)
