|   | Where's Jesse?  I love this picture.  It looks to me like an
impressionistic pastel of a tropical beach.  It's actually just the
bus stop, where I opened the shutter while making a 360° twirl.  I
wish I could have managed to keep myself more steady in the frame, but
what are you going to do?  Incidentally, people often don't see any
similarity to me in this picture.  On different occasions I've been
told I look like an old woman, or an alien.  You be the judge. | 
|   | These next few are from Origins
2002.  I'd like to note that I tend to show up more crisply than
other people in these photos.  All I've got to say about that is that
sitting still is just a matter of focus. | 
|   | Also, note that I actually work the shutter manually, myself, when
taking all of these.  The exposure times are long enough that in many
cases, you simply cannot see the ghosting from that movement, even
reaching all the way across the table. | 
|   | Well, OK, there's noticeable ghosting in this one, but I actually
walked around the table for this.  Didn't want to risk crashing the
Icehouse pieces! | 
|   | Quite apart from the horrible thumbal giantosis in this picture, I
didn't get quite the "zooming" effect I was going for, but I still
think it's kind of interesting. | 
|   | This is an attempt to emulate an illustration from
Playing with Pyramids.  Alison once commented to me that I'm not
smiling in most of these pictures.  Well, it's hard to hold a posed
smile still for that long, and I think the result looks pretty
unnatural and goofy on me, anyways.  Here's an example. | 
|   | This is another one that I really particularly like.  Nice colors,
nices shapes, nice angle, really interesting edge-ghosting, and a
flattering picture to boot.  Yummy! | 
|   | Ooh, something different: A half-profile.  Wild! | 
|   | The world turns 1/8 around me. |
