Challenge # 6 - Cold snap VOTE!!

First of all, what the hell, people. I love you all dearly, but more people need to post. *stern face* I mean really. What am I going to do at work if there are only 4 or 5 posts each time? I might have to like... be productive or something. (Ew.) I know I didn't post either, and I'm stapling my hand to my camera right now. (KACHUNK! Gush, spurt, faint)

That being said, awesome submissions this past week! Vote for your favorites, and please try to comment on photos!

 

also not shot for this, but i'm trying really hard to keep up with the weekly posts!    

Warm!

I didn't take this photo specifically for the challenge, but I think it fits anyway.

Morning Frost

From Friday morning morning frost on my car.
looking a bit like part of a forest...

skiing ... coming soon.

Falling like flies...

Hi everyone,
I guess I’ll "break the ice" this week!
With cold times coming, it makes life difficult for small insects. Yesterday, I found a dead fly by my window :-(

Some of you, looking at these pictures, could think that I own a crazy powerful macro lens. Well, not exactly. I just used a technique I found on the internet.

For the rest of my fly pictures, see my picasa website.

Deadline: Monday Oct 27, midnight

Bonus points/restrictions: none (Woohoo, crazy freedom! I'm gonna go get tattooed right NOW!!)
