December 2001
31 medium Heron pondering the last sunset of 2001.
30 medium I tripped the shutter at the very instant the
heat-seeking missile entered the exhaust. (It's in a rest stop on I-10 just across
the Florida line from Alabama.)
29 medium Wobbly dock.
28 medium Immature pelican wondering whether to trust me.
27 medium Joshua - hauled for the holidays, and a Coast
Guard inspection. The masts and booms are being built now.
25 medium In Ocean Springs, even Santa Claus has a cast
net.
24 medium Joy to the world. You set their hair on
fire.
medium Homemade patriotism, southbound on Interstate 65
near Evergreen, Alabama. Either that, or Jasper John's has been vandalizing truck
bumpers again. (Of course it's out of focus, I
was shooting one-handed, over my shoulder. And the cell phone rang. I nearly
dropped my bowl of soup.)
16 medium Cracked pen shell on the stereo receiver.
15 medium Reflected shrimp boat.
14 medium The sun just broke through the drab shroud of
grey clouds.
13 medium Geometry in steel and vapor. Shrimp boat
rig. One arc.
12 medium Kayak paddle.
6 medium Pelican on a daymark, abstracted by slow shutter
speed, kayak wobble, and high ISO setting.
5 medium Tree and ridge line.
4 medium A spaniel of monumental proportions.
3 medium And, if you had two?
2 medium On the fence, but tending toward the left.
1 medium It's the roof of a pottery studio fueled by
methane gas captured from the landfill just down the hill. But, you probably guessed
that already.
