Snowflakes

"Begin doing what you want to do now. We are not living in eternity. We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand—and melting like a snowflake..." Francis Bacon

Gorgeous photos of snowflakes

Music in my truck


Santa installed a new stereo in my truck last night. I've been without one for over 6 months.

Crappy vid of lights synched with music

I took some crappy video of the lights synchronized with music. The music is really faint.

Light Up the Holidays!

Jill, Kelly & I judged the annual Christmas lights contest last night. I've asked some photog friends to help out with the official set of pix but here's my set:

Most Christmas Spirit - this year, Jill C. & Rich H. won - talk about maximizing available resources! They rent the first floor of this house and decorated to the max. Excellent details.
image
image

Victorian category winner, the Larsens. Again, awesome details.
image
image
image
image

Whimsical category had a tie - Nicole & Derek - Jill C. & Nicole are sisters and lived together with their mom, Jill's ex-husband and a ton of kids until about two years ago, their house won a couple times.
image

and Amy & Robb:
image

Ryan & Melanie at Bloss Holiday Market won best business display even though there are no lights on the decorations. I've made a request to the board of the nonprofit that owns the building to fix the canopy (I'm on the board).
image
image

Dave & April won in the Green Christmas category but I need to go shoot video of it. They timed the lights to music - it's rough execution but good concept.

A top contender for the Victorian category
image
image

I like this one.
image

Also not a winner but we liked its log cabin feel.
image

Nate & Kelly tried really hard but it doesn't top the others.
image

Another nice one - Lindquists
image

Chad & Erica are ineligible because they don't live in the borough but I really like how the lights highlight the lines of the house.
