Weekend Pictures

Hi Everyone, pictures from this weekend:


These little birds were doing some sort of race around our house last week. Now they have been scared away by the Ravens (not the football team!) which hang out on house roofs and cackle all day long.

We took Galileo to Earthquake Park on Saturday. This is a park dedicated to the really awful '76 earthquake that leveled Anchorage. I've been trying to play with some of the automatic finishes that come with this camera, but in low-light conditions, I've found that my camera does not work very well, and the automatic adjustments are pretty bad. So bear with me :)


View over the arm. This shot I have also in edited form, but really this blue tint is more what it looked like than the computer-generated choice.


Another view over the arm. This also is more true to life than the "fixed" version, which adds a lot more white and red to this picture.


Frank and Puppy at Earthquake Park. Doesn't Frank look handsome in his hat? We bought them for our Scandanavia trip, but didn't really use it them until we got up here. You'll notice that this shot is a little grainy -- this is because it was too dark in its original format.


No, this is not a comet...it's a plane (we were by the airport).


Sky on Saturday (at 3pm mind you!).


Sunday Sunset. I got this shot through our west picture window looking out. It looked much different than what I could see from the ground...


See? Here is the same sunset from the back door.
