This photo was taken by Rayce Conway at the powerplant shoot from a couple of weeks ago. I think it looks pretty good.

So much for incipient winter - the sun is bright today and the water painfully blue. There's a flickering patch of lightly purplish carpet where the sun projects through the radiometer.

In an hour or so it's up to Everett for Bonnie's birthday party. She's the best kind of kid to have: someone else's. You get all the fun of watching her carom about her tiny life - giggling, bouncing, learning to talk, making faces, being bashful, crashing her way through the toybox - with none of the nasty bills and responsibilities. When you're done, you just hand her back to her parents. It's great. Someone should start a rental agency for spare children; bored yuppies could check a kid out for an afternoon trip to the zoo.

I spent an hour and a half with two pairs of pliers and a spool of wire this evening and made a two-foot chain mail sash belt for a friend's daughter. It's her second birthday tomorrow, and we're determined to spoil her silly. Kelly left the children's department at Nordstrom's loaded down with a purple velvet dress, a sparkly magenta top, a black chiffon ballerina skirt, and a pair of stretchy black velvet pants. These reminded me of a pair of stretchy black velvet pants I like to wear out dancing. Ideas crossed, and I decided to make her a replica of the chainmail belt I wear with my version of the outfit. It's tiny, it's adorable, and I'll be astonished if it lasts more than a week in the care of a maniac toddler.

Welcome to latest incarnation of my personal web site - the fifth incarnation, by my tally, and the second under the current name. Photography is now taking center stage. I'll probably write commentary and weblog-style text entries from time to time, but the emphasis will be on interesting or beautiful things I happen to capture on camera.

The goal is to post at least one photo per day. I bought a digital camera several months ago to make this possible. It quickly supplanted my film cameras as primary image-capturing tool, and I don't expect its stream of pictures to abate anytime soon.
