they love meeting new people, especially in their environment, Deb is really easy going, has a great smile and was really comfortable around them, this helped as well.

There would be few people, I would imagine, that wouldn't be comfortable around Deb. She would be a great asset to have at a shoot, I know she is a great asset to have here.

g'MAE

Most definitely Becky, *and* she brought the lights to light the backdrop!!

Hiya Jamie!!

Funny email

They are just jealous. Some people just are unaccepting of people who are different.

then I converted it to sepia

I think you did a great job. she sure has a head full of teeth

Exactly. I started singing it, I did not finish it for this is the reaction that could have ensued.

Oh My.

Then I'll give you your souvenirs first:

And sense John is here, a few for you too. (Sorry not use to these kind of shots and I wasn't quick enough to slow the shutter down a bit)

Note, that is not slurm, it is a bird, trust me, I cleaned a lot of slurm from many of the shots:

Cool shots Becky.

I finally got out Sunday and got some shots. I just dont have them uploaded. (and they are at home not here). Maybe I can post them this evening. I have a decent lady bug and a bumble bee that you can see the swirls in his eyes.

Don't tell anyone but I sorta caught up. SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I won't tell if you won't tell I still have a long way to go.

Hi Jamie. I'm looking forward to your shots.

I don't know if this will be of a size to tell anything but here goes.

GMAE all! Its 48 and raining here. Feels more like spring. I opened the windows a tad at home so it'll smell all rain-fresh when I get home.

Abuse by fish sucks

That totally cracked me up, lol.

Yes, same brand as Crissa's different color scheme. Flash Gels fit over the flash unit, one way to use them is to change the color of your background. LINK

Thanks!

Great photos, Becky!

It is an anole. They change color to match their background and stick their throats out at pretty girls.

very cool

I mentioned a 21hour drive nonstop to key west the other day. On that trip we stopped on the way back in south Carolina and noticed an anole in the car. It was cold there so we took him home. He lived with us for a year and when we flew down the next year we smuggled him on the plane and took him home. We found a nice woodland where there were other anoles going up and down trees and let him go. We let him go on a log and he stopped, color corrected himself, and listened. he kept cocking his head and listening to what must have been familiar sound, it was hilarious. We sang "Born Free" and he scooted away. The anole story as told by Zane.

Awwww

Oh and your souvenirs, in celebration of your new 100, the first two were done with tubes and the 100 and my first attempt at refractions:

WOW!
