Photo-Luminescence

My new Photoblog is up!  Head on over to www.douglasmulford.com to see Photo-Luminescence.  I will be posting one picture a day there so it will be updated much more often :)  I am sure that I will still post here on occasion, but my main focus will be the new blog.

It's Been a While

It has been a while since I last posted so here are some goodies from Costa Rica!    These all came from the Arenal area

Blue-Grey Tanager

Water lily like plants

Purty flower--large!  About 10 inches across!

A Guest Post

Time for my first guest shot!  I didn't not, of course, take the above picture...our doctor did-Courtney and I are gonna be parents!!!!!!  Our little one will make his or her first appearance around June 14, 2010.  Yea!!! :)

The masks we wear

Hyena mask by Yacouba Bonde at the High museum in Atlanta. Really darned cool!!!




Butterfly mask by the same artist. This is really big ~ 6 feet long. Here is a shot of it being worn:



And a bush cow. Most nifty!!

Spikey!!!

Image of Jeal driving a spike through the head of Sisera-always a popular bible story for youth group!!! Engraving is from 1517 and part of a special exhibit at the Carlos museum on the Emory campus.

Fall is here

Quick shot of a purty tree outside the Avondale Post Office. First post from my iPhone with a pict from my phone-hope it works :)

Better than Galileo

No, not that I am better than Galileo!  But, my camera does have more magnification at 300mm than Galileo did  in 1609-1610 when he first turned his eyes to Jupiter.  And at a complete surprise to me, on a clear fall night in NY I was able to capture this picture of Jupiter with my camera...and yup, those are the Galilean moons surrounding it.  COOL!
