Wet and Shroomy

It has been raining and wet for a few weeks now and there have been a fair number of fun mushrooms around.

Anyone know what species they are and if they are fun, tasty, or deadly?

Spider too cute to be scary!

It's spooky season and what goes better than spiders? Cute spiders!

Saw a smallish spider on the ceiling and decided to try and get some macro shots of it. I did not see how cute it was until I reviewed the first few shots. Look at that face!

Our holiday themed black cat saw what I was looking at and got a bit crazy wanting me to help him get it. I decided best to catch it and put it outside before it became a snack.

Cool Blue Damselfly

Spotted this cool blue damselfly after a surf session.

 

Poor Surf Hall Moth

Went to go look at the surf but it wasn't looking great and found they moth in the hall when I got back.

3D Flying Crane

Or is that crane fly in 3d?


Here a close up of the body.

Deep Space Nailbula

I got this back in December the first night with my new 8" telescope. I just got around to processing all the photos I took of it recently. It's my first nailbula. What is a nailbula you ask?


It's what happens to your nail when it gets stuck between bits of the German Equitorial telescope mount! Ouch! Astronomy is dangerous! I think I end up with a new cut or pulled muscle every time I am out with my telescopes. Who would have thought.


And in 3d because I know you all want to see nailbula in the 3rd dimension!

Nice Green Clip

I like this rusty green clip.


I also like it in 3D. To bad everyone doesn't have a nice 3D display. It looks much better in full color. The red/blue really kills the greenness of it.

SF Ladybug

In 3D!

This is the Wall in 3D

Yes they are in red/blue 3D. I suggest clicking to see them big.

Purple Storm Drain Stuff

Linda's find.


My find.


Drain closest is where Linda's find sat and the drain across the street by Linda's feet is where mine was.

It's a Knob

In 3d.

Giant Hook

I got me a giant hook 'cause there's only one fish in the sea for me.

Packet

Feed those flowers.


4? Looks like 3 to me.

Small Fuzzy Green Ball

Our kitties would love to play with this.


I bet they taste like fish. I our kitties love fuzzy balls and fish.


A little piece of wood that was behind the fuzzy ball.


Another fuzzy ball! And wood! And Linda's feet!

Big Shell Moth

Found this big moth around 5:30 am when I stopped to get gas on my way to surf the other day.


Shell Moth


It's body was really nice and plump.

Space Rock

We found this cool rock on the beach that clearly came from outer space.

I like Space Rock.

OBX Edition -- Triceritops Jelly!

There were millions of little jellyfish all over the beach our last day in the Outer Banks. Some of them had cool/scary little horn things. I liked this little Triceratops Jelly!

OBX Edition -- Pink Rocket Ship!

It's been a long time since I've found a Pink Rocket Ship! The first time was when I was about 8 or 9. A friend and I found a bunch of these Pink Rocket Ships someone had thrown out. They were on the street corner by a trash bag some animal had ripped open. Lucky us! We grabbed a few Pink Rockets each and ran off pretending they were from the James Bond movie that had the rocket that opened up in the front and ate the other space craft. Notice how they have the opening on the front just like in the movie. Any way later that day I showed my Mom the cool Pink Rockets. She didn't really seemed as excited about them as I was. After she explained what they were used for I relied why and didn't complain when she told me to go wash my hands.

Pink Rocket prepares for beach blast off in, three(D)!...

one...

Zero, Blast off!

Little 3D Flowers

Lets Go Get Coke...

...anything else is just a joke. So lets all drink coke.

Made in Tijuana with real sugar. Now that's some sweet 3d -;]
