Macro Filters

I subscribe to the Photojojo! newsletter and read about different ways to do macrophotography. I'm too poor to buy an expensive macro lens for my Canon so I bought macro filters in Connecticut when I visited Anna and Aaron in October. Photojojo! said they can be bought for under $20. Nope: mine were $60! Aaron told me about the drawbacks of filters (poor focus is the big problem) but I bought them anyway. My first project was photographing walnuts that Amy was using in her cookies. I liked the result. But of course I failed to take notes so I have no idea which filters I used on this photo. And if I had re-read the article about aperture size and tripods before I took the photos, I am sure I could've done better.

24 "Then teh saef cleaning kitteh caem. 'Suh,' he sayd, 'I knowz you can be meanys sumtimes, takin mor than wat u startd wit, cheetin, and takin stuffs dat isn't urs.
25 So I gots scaerd n putted al ur monyz into saef accountz backed by teh guvmint. Look, I givz u bak ur allstuffs nao. U losteds nuffinz!'

Scratching "meeyauw"

Screenshots of the animation of "meeyauw" that I created in preparation for class on Tuesday. The animation can be seen at http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/meeyauw/308676. The kids in Scratch Club love this stuff! I found an excellent resource at learnscratch.org. Check it out.

Connecticut Sparrows

I went to New Haven last week to visit my daughter Anna. We went to Stony Creek in Branford, where I found a bunch of sparrows on this rose bush. Sparrows are very plentiful on the shore, unlike here. If you know what kind of sparrows these are, drop a comment!
