Reason and Brimstone

"We are the people who run this country. We are the deciders. And every single day, every single one of us needs to step outside and take some action to help stop this war. Raise hell." -- Molly Ivins

Random Shots

I particuarly love this shot.  What you're seeing is fireworks shot off from a nearby dock as well as lights surrounding the pond.  There are also lights from a passing boat and in the background star streaks and lights from a plane flying across.

Some night photography can look very cool when you convert it to black and white

At 47 minutes, this is one of the longest exposures I've ever taken.  Notice that extremely bright streak across the sky?  That's the planet Venus, but with the Earth in motion, it (as with the dimmer stars) appears to be a streak instead of a planet.
