This '61 Beetle was unique, not just because of its year and its two-tone color scheme. Look closely, and you'll see that the steering wheel is on the right-hand side. There's a simple explanation for this. The owner is a Brit, and when he moved to America he took his prize '61 Bug with him.
I had to bend over backwards to get this picture because it was so crowded around this Bug. I took it with a disposable camera and had a CD made, like with all of my pictures. But when the lab scanned the photo for disc, it was cropped. Thus the right-hand-side steering wheel appears in full view on the 4x6 glossy print, while it's somewhat cut off here. Sorry I couldn't do better. But it's still an interesting specimen of VW for people used to left-hand-drive (i.e., most of us) to appreciate.
Took this yesterday, but it was only when I got it up on my PC that I realised it looks like a hand. I have no idea what tree it is though.
Sometimes something so small can mean so much

This was a gift for my Mum, made in 1990 - it was a one-off and it is still a favourite piece of mine. The silver hand is made from a recycled drink can.

A lot of my pictures from May of last year (which is where I'm currently caught up to) were taken in the middle of my RT and subway fascination...as well as pics of the city in general. As much as I had fun going around and getting pictures of these things, I'm not really feeling them right now...so I'm having to browse through more recent pictures in order to mix it up, rather than post like 5 consecutive pictures of the RT or subway.
I know some of you guys like my TTC-related pics, and I still have dozens of them to post...but I feel the need to post a bokeh'd pic like this one in between my longer-distance, shallow-DOF city scenes.

Today the zoo made the decision to remove the elephants, over a period of time. I'm not sure what to think of this, but I think a lot of zoos are phasing out elephants in light of research into their well-being...that's my understanding of it, anyway.

One of those accidental ones, don't know what the hell I was doing there. Seriously underexposed, but playing with the contrast brought out these striking colours.
Photo taken for Scavenge Challenge #18 Show a hand-held electronic device in use (no cell phones or cameras, please!). This is plain non-fat yogurt that I am mixing with my homemade blackberry jam. (Usually I just do it with a spoon.)
And Today's Posting #329 Curves, squiggles, and flowing lines interest the eye. Make a photograph dominated by a curvy shape of some sort today.
Yes Jay, this was done ALL handheld, with the mixer in one hand and the camera in the other.
Nanda is making a bracelet out of colourful electrical wire and resistors at Moem's workshop Geeky Jewelry (in which the participants make earrings, bracelets, pendants, amulets and assorted bling from shiny electrical components and computer parts).
One of three shots I took today, for use with my work. My mother-in-law had this pitcher made for me in 2002.
