Do we leave them here?

I took this with a cheap digital camera. I don't know what it is of.

Thanks for posting this, Dan. Life has made a flake outta me lately and I can't keep up.

Here are some "meaningless" but hopefully engaging pics. Click (the 1st four) to enlarge, if you so desire:

Sorry, Shane. Number three is clearly meaningful.

*Breaks out pitchfork. Stumbles over torch. Remembers where he is.*

Just don't do it again.

(That's the inspiration for the others, right? Really cool). They're all really bloody small too. Say it loud, mate!

And here are some more that I took in about 2003 or 2004 (I haven't been doing as much photography lately, although I mean to get back into it).

Those are all pretty good, Hellbient. What's the story behind spiral9 and rimg0024?

Don't share if you don't want, but they are both pretty awesome.

i suck at Flickr - here's a better way to view them.
Gecko - they're both taken from projections, the spiral is a time exposure of a moving circle.

Meaningless photo #1

Meaningless photo #2

Meaningless photo #3

The first photo is of a large foo and a small foo. There are two foos, which makes it a foo foo foto.

Here's one. If I had time I would find and scan some old photos with time lapse, multiple exposures and camera tossing. A fun idea.

Is any photo ever really meaningless?

(I tried to post mine inline but obviously I don't know how yet.)

My first macro. So not entirely meaningless, I guess? But boring nonetheless.

danf - to put the image inline, put [img src= in front of the url, and /] after it. After it, that's a space, a slash, and a > thingy, which I've replaced with a bracket out of laziness.
