Water Sculptures : This gallery features photographs that concentrate on capturing moments in the life of a drop of water.  Each drop forms its own series of sculptures that change too quickly for the eye to catch the beauty as it transforms.  Hopefully this gallery will preserve some of those moments.

2008 Daily Photo Community : The photographs in this gallery originally appeared in separate monthly galleries for 2008.  The photographs were part of a year-long project to take a photograph a day and post it to a monthly gallery.

The photographs featured here are a subset of the original monthly galleries for 2008.  They are sorted in reverse, by date which means the oldest photographs are at the end.

2009 Daily Photo Extras - Victims of Circumstance : The images in this gallery are mostly just victims of circumstance.  The daily photo galleries only allow one photo per day.  Some days the struggle is to find one decent image, other days there are many contenders.  Not all contenders will end up here but quite a few will find a home here over the year.  In 2008, I estimate that I shot over 20,000 photographs.  It's tough to estimate how many photographs I will take in 2009 but I feel safe in estimating that it will be a big number.
