a picture a day....



....keeps the sadness away.

These are the first images from my trip home that I've had time to play with or even just unleash onto the world.
This one is the one above, undoctored. This one is my favorite. (I like the non-Photoshop version just as much, unfortunately I forgot to bring it with me to work. The color version of this one is nice too, again...forgot. It's very, very green though. I'll put it up later. I just slapped a filter on this one and messed with the brightness/contrast a bit. And now for some color. And another cemetery shot. One more for Jesus. Here's my Drew Barrymore-ish pic. And here's the sunset at home, on the way back from the the airport.

Most of the images were taken at Rochester Cemetery. I grew up near it, went to grade school blocks away, and growing up, I had many friends that lived very close to it. We would constantly go there to look at the graves, run around at night looking for (but not really hoping to find) the Albino Lady, and Dana and I tried to play the Ouija board there once but got too freaked out and left. My other favorite cemetery is the one where I had some of my senior pictures taken, the one with the row of cool mausoleums. Found this when I was looking for something on Topeka Cemetery. I'm so spooky.


More later.
When I have the time.
Or when I don't.

heh...I'm a little spooked after reading all of that...
