Photo Thread: Last picture you took.

[Pacifist Patriot]

Last frame on my camera had no people in it I'm afraid. I took this at the natural history museum at the University of Florida. They have an amazing butterfly conservatory.



What is the last picture you took?

[Ptah]

1. I like your picture very much!

Some sprouts in my garden.

[Pacifist Patriot]

2. Cool picture! I love spring.

[laylah]

3. I am still trying to figure

out how to post pictures. Both of these are wonderful! Any direction either of you could give me would be so very appreciated! :hug:

[Ptah]

4. I use photobucket.com

It's free.

Establish an account and follow the directions for adding a photo.

After that, click on the text under your image.

I like the one labeled Direct Link.

I hope this helps, laylah.

[Pacifist Patriot]

7. I use photobucket.com too.

[DS1]

5. Southwest Airlines. Flying slut-free since 2007

[Pacifist Patriot]

6. Okay, I have to ask. Why did you take the picture?

[DS1]

8. What do you mean, "why"?

[Pacifist Patriot]

9. Under what circumstances were you inspired to take a picture of a plane on the tarmac?

Was someone you love on board? Were you hoping to catch sight of a buxom hottie? Were you annoying Homeland Security? Just curious about why the photo was taken. I think it's a cool shot actually.

[DS1]

10. bored

had about 3 hours to kill, so went to top deck of parking lot of Phoenix Airport. Took a series of long exposures just to see what could be done.

It's a part of this set.

[Pacifist Patriot]

13. Those are neat.

[speedoo]

84. I love those, DS1.

Did you use a tripod? What camera? Please tell me more and excuse me if the questions are already answered in the thread, just wanna know.

[DS1]

87. It was a Canon 5D resting on the ledge

very carefully.

[speedoo]

89. Very carefully indeed!

That's one fine camera. How long have you had it?

[DS1]

90. 98 days

:D

[speedoo]

93. Heh.

Betcha you've used it all 98!

[Maestro]

115. Nice long exposures

What was your shutter speed?

[Xipe Totec]

11. Wicked cool pic!

Thanks!

[LeftyMom]

12. I took this to torment flvegan with melty vegan cheese.

[Pacifist Patriot]

14. LOL!

[ThomCat]

15. Is it good?

It looks like it really melted! Wow.

How does it taste? :)

[LeftyMom]

54. It's good!

A couple of places in New York have it already: http://www.teesecheese.com/get_teese.php

[ThomCat]

59. I am SO past due to go to the Candle Cafe!

That place is phenomenal! :9

[Pacifist Patriot]

18. Totally off topic, but since you are here. Parenting question.

Why is it that my 11 year old breaks my pewter letter opener given to me as a gift at my ordination, apologizes profusely, I simply respond, "thank you." and he goes all batshit with, "you're acting like such an asshole about it."

Does that give me leave to beat his sorry little ass?

[LeftyMom]

52. Well, you could ground him, but then you'd be stuck with a kid in a bad mood.

I'd suggest letting him know that he's hit that prepubescent moody phase, that he's not going to take it out on you, and that if he does it again you're locking him in the basement until he's 25.

[LostinVA]

58. You should should take him to the beach and drown him

The ocean can take care of the body.

[harmonicon]

70. +1

19. looks like an exploded zit

[livetohike]

16. Salt Springs south of Palatka, FL

Taken while on vacation two weeks ago. We canoed the springs and came to this pretty spot. It was the last picture of our month long vacation.

IMG]

[S n o w b a l l]

22. That is so gorgeous...

:thumbsup:

[livetohike]

26. It really was - the water was crystal clear

and you could see the fish swimming around. It was like viewing an aquarium. I spent more time looking down than up, lol.

[Pacifist Patriot]

23. Beautiful!

[harmonicon]

71. was anyone eaten by a 'gator?

Looks really pretty, but I don't think I could go, because I don't like being eaten by reptiles. Seriously. I'm also deathly afraid of snakes.

[livetohike]

74. We didn't see any gators on this creek but

we saw a few on other streams we paddled. We had both of our dogs with us, so I was a little concerned what would happen because our dogs have never seen gators before. But it was okay.

The weather was unseasonably cool, so I think that slowed the gators down. We didn't see any snakes at all.

I hate spiders and snakes :-).

[JCMach1]

101. Is this Salt Springs, or the Juniper Springs Run?

Very near my home in the States...

[livetohike]

104. It's the Salt Springs

We didn't have a chance to do the Juniper Springs Run :-(.

Well, your home in the states is absolutely gorgeous!! We're going to continue to head down there every March now that we're retired and can still paddle. We paddled the Oklawaha River for about five hours. I could have gone there every single day and not get tired of it.

[JCMach1]

105. I spent many childhood days on the Oklawaha in a canoe fishing with a cane pole

[livetohike]

108. Idyllic

:-) What a great memory to have!

[S n o w b a l l]

17. View from our hotel in NYC

As you can see, I'm a great photographer! :rofl:

[Pacifist Patriot]

27. LOL! Works for me. That's pretty much what NYC looks like every time I've been there.

[The Straight Story]

20. a nude of my wife

which I can't post here :)

[DarkTirade]

36. And that is why the gods invented PMs...

:P

[Richard Steele]

21. I took this this morning, to post in the "Gardening" group:

My monster "seed potatos" that I've been saving since last September.

[S n o w b a l l]

25. Ewwww....

The naked mole rats are sprouting!

[Richard Steele]

32. Creepy, ain't they? I think the one on the left has been rooting through my fridge at night!

Seriously- if these things make new potatos HALF as good as they've
made eye-sprouts, I'm looking at a bumper crop this year!

[Pacifist Patriot]

37. THAT'S what makes new potatos? Who knew?

[Pacifist Patriot]

28. That looks like a picture that would accompany a recipe card from 1973

[NMDemDist2]

24. of my big garden patch, before I plant it

[Pacifist Patriot]

30. You will share the after pic won't you?

[NMDemDist2]

34. of course, but to keep you in the mood, here's one of the radishi last week

they'll be ready to eat next week too

I have a kitchen garden that's already planted and doing great

[stuntcat]

29. new art

I got this owl art in San Francisco last week and I took a picture after I hung it over my husband's desk-


You could zoom in forever on your picture, you see every detail of the leafs and the butterflies.
It's about time for me to go sit outside taking macro-shots I think!

[Pacifist Patriot]

31. Cool owl. Does he collect them or did he go to a school with an owl mascot?

I'm always curious why people acquire / photograph the things they do.

I went nuts with the butterflies. I took 50 pictures if I took one.

[stuntcat]

53. the butterflies!

My aunt does that, she has such patience, her butterfly pictures are amazing. She taught me how to take macro pictures and now I have really gross shots of grubs and stuff :puke:

I just had a coincidence on my trip last week- I found a neat t-shirt for my husband with an owl on it, then my friend gave me this big wooden oil they were using for decoration in the Diesel store he works at, so it was FREE :headbang: and it looks almost exactly like the t-shirt.. nearly weird I swear.
I'm crazy about animals though, any of them. I love the owls, even though they eat sparrows and I really love sparrows!

I have a feeling I'm gonna take some good bug shots the next few days, and maybe share them with the lounge :headbang:

[DarkTirade]

33. Last pic I took has been posted here already...

but I ain't gonna let that stop me. :)

[Pacifist Patriot]

35. Pardon me for my unfamiliarity, but I'm taking the opportunity in this thread to get to know people.

You play?

[DarkTirade]

40. Yep. Those are my two newest instruments

up until a few months ago I'd only owned an acoustic guitar. Now I have an electric bass that I got for christmas, and an electric guitar that I just bought the two weeks ago today. :)

I started with classical violin and voice, and I've dabbled with keyboard and a few renaissance instruments. All in all, if you divide every instrument I've ever played, you either get 7 including voice, or 12 if you count keyboard and piano as seperate, different sizes of recorder as seperate instruments, electric and acoustic guitar as seperate, ect.

[Pacifist Patriot]

42. Way cool.

I've got voice, intermediate piano, dabbled in guitar and less flute.

[DarkTirade]

44. I played three sizes of recorder, that's kinda like flute. :P

I also made a flute out of PVC when I was bored and I had some laying around. :P I find it easier to play a flute without a mouthplate than with, despite the fact that the mouthplate thingy is s'posed to make it easier. I guess I'm just wierd like that.

[Haole Girl]

38. Ok

I think this is the last one I took:




Edit: I love the butterfly pic! :hi:

[livvy]

39. Dogs love snow

and they also are fairly possessive.



Sorry, couldn't pick between the two. I don't know which was last.

[BarenakedLady]

41. Yesterday

This was growing in my veggie garden.

[buzzard]

43. My pool filled with snow.

[fight4my3sons]

46. wingnut bumper sticker at the supermarket

I hope you can read them.

[BarenakedLady]

48. Blech.

I would have parked my DU-Human Rights Campaign-Red ribboned bedecked soccer mom mini-van right next to it.

He should be shot just for the anti-Red Sox sticker alone. :P

[WritingIsMyReligion]

110. A Yankee fan, of course.

:rofl:

:evilgrin:

[Inchworm]

47. An Eastern Bluebird

The most recent addition to my lifelist.



:hi:

[BarenakedLady]

49. Awesome shot!

:woohoo:

[Inchworm]

50. Thanks!

I saw your flowers and I am jealous. I'm doing my first legal garden this year. I have 100 little peat containers full of flowers and herbs. Still nothing! I'm skeered :D

:hi:

[livvy]

56. Oooohhh...pretty!

Have you ever seen this print? Cracks me up.



They are such beautious birds!

[Inchworm]

64. Yup!

They are real perdy. I wish I would have had a house for him to chill in as he passed :D

Thanks.

:hi:

[Mugu]

82. I have put up numerous Bluebird houses and no luck.

You are quite fortunate.

Regards, Mugu

[Crabby Appleton]

51. New guitar

[DarkTirade]

57. What kind is that?

[Orsino]

79. A gen-yoo-wine Gibson Les Paul? n/t

[Crabby Appleton]

95. Yes

A Les Paul Custom.

[RetroLounge]

120. Oooh, guitar porn!

[LostinVA]

55. Here are the last two pictures Haruka took

Our next door neighbor's old Thunderbird


And, what was his house.

[Pacifist Patriot]

77. Yikes on the second and neat on the first. Cool T-bird pic.

[LostinVA]

98. He made it out okay -- amazingly

Fortunately, for him, he fell asleep in front of the TV downstairs, instead of in his bedroom. He had put a wood burning stove in his bedroom, using a dryer vent.

Our houses are on the same property, and his is about 50' from ours. Both are old wooden houses, and he had 50mph winds that night. We're lucky our house didn't go up, too. Same for the two barns here. It was a scary, scary night. Haruka went out afterwards and took a ton of pictures of the wreckage.

How are your kitties doing, btw?

[JackBeck]

60. Of all nights, I can't believe you're asking this.

Fresh off the presses from three hours ago:



What a way to start a weekend. The flood started 3 floors above us and ended 3 floors below us. Massive damage for a new condo building. There's more, but I'd rather not raise my rage even more.

[LynzM]

61. Oh man, dude, that sucks....

I'm sorry, what a crappy start to a weekend... (or week/month, etc.) :hug:

[LynzM]

62. Self-delete

That wasn't where I meant to put that!

[JackBeck]

68. Good thing I didn't meet up with my boys for drinks tonight.

I would have hated to find this late tonight.

Thanks for the hugs.

:hug:

[Mugu]

83. Very major suck.

I would be so freaked.

Best wishes, Mugu

[JackBeck]

109. Yeah, pretty much.

I wasn't able to sleep Friday night, for fear there would be a fire.

Hopefully, by Monday, we'll have some answers from the Condo board.

Thanks for the "best wishes"!

[LynzM]

63. Beautiful butterfly pic there! I love it! Here's mine, new tattoo:

[Deja Q]

65. Okay

Actually, it's this one:


But that's geeky and too esoteric...

[Lethe]

66. VB6?

that was back in the 20th century! .net 3.5, please :D

(cool pick btw)

[Deja Q]

76. Well, a monitor stand is all that book was good for

:rofl:

[Inchworm]

69. Ex-Ter-Mi-Nate!

Be careful, Sir.

I love it. I have skulls, monkeys, unicorns, a McDonald's toy holding a machine gun, and a Gehngis Khan statue surrounding my monitor.

:thumbsup:

[harmonicon]

72. Dude, you better be careful.

What you may have thought were butterflies or flowers are actually Daleks, and it seems that they've acquired some sort of massive computer. All of that added up = super bad news.

[DarkTirade]

81. ... this is the lounge. We do geeky and esoteric here. :)

[Blue_In_AK]

67. Here's the last one I took.

[Adsos Letter]

73. My youngest daughter...fully wired to the net...

75. Very tired after working on a project for, like, 24 hours...

[Orsino]

78. My living room.

Taken from outside the cats' suite:

[QueenOfCalifornia]

113. Nice

Does anyone live down there? It is very NEAT and uncluttered. I am impressed... Who plays the lute?

[Orsino]

114. We recently moved in from a real dump...

...and are determined to keep this place nice.

The lute was built for me to play twenty-ahem years ago in a college production of guess-which-play? It is barely functional, and the strings have never been replaced--but I love it.

[Ariana Celeste]

80. was asked for a new pic

some people haven't seen my normal colored hair yet :P

[BuddhaGirl]

85. taken a few weeks ago

La Ceiba, Honduras:

[Mugu]

86. This is not the very last photo that I took,

but nobody wants to see the last one.

I live in an old farmhouse and have never been able to find and seal all the holes. Consequently, I get little furry visitors from time to time.

Last weekend I was awoken at about 4AM by sounds coming from my kitchen. Upon investigation I discover a little brown mouse trying to steal a nut off my counter and having trouble getting it to his lair. I got the trap from behind the refrigerator (hence the dust) baited it with some peanut butter and set it on top of the stove. Not 10 seconds later, with the lights on and the camera flash going, he attacks.

[speedoo]

91. Owee.

I think I know what the last pic looks like.

Is that a mouse or something else? Never saw a two-tone mouse before, if that's what it is/was.

[Mugu]

100. As cute as he is, he's a common mouse for this area (north-central Illinois.)

[bigwillq]

88. Nice pic.

I love butterflies.

:hi:

[astonamous]

103. !!!WARNING!!! Dog rescuer here and this one might be hard to look at for some...

Meet Atticus Finch. He was listed as an 11 year old in the shelter. His previous owner dumped him there. He is so sweet but in so much pain. It hurts him to be touched. He is only 4 years old at the most and resting comfortably tonight. We hope to know what his skin condition is by Monday and get him on the correct treatment.



This is Blossom and she is the sweetest girl. Very playful and somewhat of a clown.



My dog, Casper, after doing his chores....
