6 photos of a squirrel eating bread on a bench, the last being him running away with a piece of bread across the sidewalk… funny. 
For editing, I processed the six separate images in Photoshop CS5, resized them to 1000×667 pixels, added a 4-pixel white border and 10-pixel black border around each image, and merged them together in PhotoFiltre Studio.

Riverside Bank was a good bank. I liked their free coffee and cookies. TD Bank is good too, but doesn’t put out free coffee and cookies. Regions does, but their policies suck. $7 to cash a personal check for a non-account holder? Insane! Photo at 1060 W. International Speedway Blvd., Daytona Beach, FL, Sept. 25, 2008.

A green leaf partially eaten by bugs with water drops on it.
This is one of my first photos with my new Tamron 18-200mm lens from Amazon.com. I like the telescopic range, even though the optics and speed are below most Canon lenses.
For editing, I added a lot of contrast in Adobe Camera Raw 5.0 and Photoshop CS5, and cloned or spot healed many specks of dirt on the leaf.

It’s a glass laser block! I used my green laser pointer on glass blocks in the lobby at building 100 at Daytona State College. This was a lot of fun and I enjoy effects like these. I used a six-second exposure and positioned my Canon Rebel XTi on a makeshift tripod and used the 10 sec. timer to avoid jostling it.

These lasers were made for pointing, and that’s just what they’ll do. One of these days these lasers are going to point all over you.

Stamp collecting is so much fun.
This is a package Dad and I were mailing to Polyester Books in Fitzroy, Australia. It would have been more economical to mail a bigger package because 8 oz. cost us $7.32 to mail.
