Well, I finally have something to contribute here with my trip to Washington DC a few weeks ago...




Just to give you a feel of the size of a Saturn V's rocket size... (that guy's about 6'1")


The model of the shuttle is at least 6', and another 10' in front of the panels



I found this quite funny, since I first imagined an engine-powered truck, not a handtruck (in the basement of the Library of Congress)


Fountains outside the Library


Inside the Library

Man I really need to get a macro lens for this camera! Ugh, anyway...

Dad caught a copperhead last night. As with all snakes he finds, he keeps them for a few days. This morning he took it out of the cage for a few pictures. I'm just posting links just in case some of you have a phobea of snakes or something

And then I got a nice picture of my cat a few days ago... He's been very lonely though(or at least wanting much more attention) since our other cat died a few days ago...

I love the copperhead shots dude!!

Here is a black snake I got a few weeks ago

BTW- Not sure what kind of camera you have, but extension tubes make a great alternative to a macro lens. They run about a hundred bucks. All my macro shots are done with extension tubes.
