Drop of milk. I processed the crap out of it trying to get some contrast in it. The result is a ton of noise for ISO 100.

These scissors are the reason why the pictures out of my disposable camera are going to suck. I usually keep these scissors and a little stapler in my backpack for school. I pulled out the stapler, but forgot about the scissors when I flew home. I had my disposable in my backpack loaded with film, and when they scanned it, they stopped and examined my bag longer because of those scissors. I remembered that I had left them in there when they were taking so long on it, so I told them that I think I left scissors in my bag and they can go ahead and throw them away. That just attracted more attention to my bag so they got a second and a third person to look at the x-ray of the bag. It was probably under the scanner for 3 minutes before they finally pulled it the rest of the way through and did a hand search. They finally determined that they were ok and let me keep them, but at the point the damage to the film had already been done.

My nephew Thomas.

I used the flash filter for incandescent white ballance. So the fill flash matches the color ballance from the lights on the tree. I need to start putting those filters in my camera bag. They would have come in handy yesterday.

So it was 11:30pm and I still haddn't gotten my picture for the day. I then got a splash of inspiration from outside. It's 20 degrees outside and you can see the water on top of the pool cover is frozen. Crazy Mormons.
