A sequence of eighteen hand-held images taken one after the other using my iPhone and showing how rapidly the bands in the aurora change.

Photo of a computer monitor attached to an Applied Biosystems 3730xl DNA sequencer. Each horizontal lane is one reaction, and each coloured bar within the lane (yellow, blue, red or green) represents one of the four DNA bases (A, C, G or T). A full run consists of 96 of these reactions, each yielding about 800 bases of DNA sequence. This technology formed the backbone of the latter stages of the Human Genome Project, and is still routinely in use for both research and clinical diagnostics.

Row of monster succulents in front of an apartment building. Something appealing about their huge green heads ...
Taken with iPhone 3GS.

The Puente de Triano bridge in Seville, shot as redscale. My overlaps weren't terribly clean in this panoramic attempt, but I still really like the result.
Holga 120N, Fuji Superia 200 loaded backwards.
Another attempt at creating a composite of some high speed shots of our other fox red lab. You really need to get back as far as possible to minimize the perspective distortion (makes it look like the dog is running around a curve). The distortion makes it harder to splice each frame together and causes the curved appearance.
Dusting my collection off, can across this of friend. Ladies, Gentlemen, friends old a new, The Rogue Sequencer. The sigcar of my old friend Tommy N. I've got the Firepower, and Tommy has this.Well, not this specific one you're looking at now. This one was a gift from the man himself. I'm thankful that he gave me this, cause damn. The design of it is simply fantastic when you sit down and take a nice long look at it. Great work, Tommy. Great work.
Be sure to check Tommy's stuff out!
This is the sequence of shots I took of the back flip. I decided to put them all together and make a sequence shot. I have never done this before but I think it looks nice and seamless. I tried to be as accurate as possible as to the actual positions and think i got it about spot on.
This is a sequence I shot while out around Point Perion, Perth, WA.
It was a very hard bright sunny day (as you can probably make out by some of the shadows), but it allowed for a quick machine gun of this pelican as it flew by with a small f stop and reasonable DOF.
Deer are very smart. On a frigid, windy day, they all go to the base of the slope and lay down, out of the wind. When I looked out the window, I saw that a few where laying in an almost perfect line. Cute coincidence, if I say so.
The closest doe is the one who has been coming to get fed by us for the longest amount of time.

A sequence I edited of my friend Mani, his birthday was yesterday ^^
the trick is a fs lipslide to 270 varial out.
All the energy we need is in the sky, yet we still don't know how to tame it. Hopefully we'll reach the solution within the main sequence' times of our G2V yellow dwarf.
I sent my saliva to China,
to the largest sequencing lab in the world,
and they did a whole genome sequence of me,
and most of me is not human.
Here are the bacteria living in my mouth, a pre-launch test from the first commercial service to offer a whole genome sequence of the whole lot:

I saw a few things in there that struck me as quite peculiar... things that one might expect, ummm, elsewhere on the body... and so I shared the results with some microbiome experts who have a keen interest in this. Here’s what U.C. Davis Professor Jonathan Eisen had to say:
“The first thing I usually do for samples is look at % by phylum. See pie chart for yours below.
The #s for each microbial group (i.e., Staphylococcus, Neisseria, etc.) do not seem out of the ordinary too much. Though I note - some studies have found high levels of Haemophilus in oral samples, and others seem to have not found them. Not sure why at this point but looking into it. The high levels of Neisseria (the genus that N. Gonorrhoaeae is in) is a common one, so nothing to worry about there. Prior studies have sometimes found high #s of Corynebacteia. These are not there on your list.
Also - the Malassezia is interesting. It is a fungus genus. Commonly found on the skin of various mammals including humans. Some types are found to be infectious, but I think most are just hanging out doing nothing. I have never seen it in mouth-microbe data, but if it was there, it would probably be missed by most studies since they focused on bacteria.”
Eisen also pointed me to the studies below. The microbiome was one of the major topics of interest at scifoo this year, where they claimed “20% of what’s in your blood is from the bacteria in your gut.” (I found earlier studies supporting 10%).
Looking at the bigger picture, New Scientist summarized some of the recent findings:
“One aspect of your uniqueness isn’t, strictly speaking, part of you at all. It comes from the 100 trillion bacteria that live both on and in you. They outnumber the body’s cells 10 to 1 and in genetic terms they are even more dominant… You’re 0.7% human
A recent study found that a unique bacterial fingerprint is transferred from our fingers to the things we touch, such as a computer keyboard or mouse, and will hang around for up to two weeks [think of the forensic applications! ]
Bacteria also contribute to uniqueness by modifying our metabolism. All humans share a basic biochemistry, but layered on top of this is a microbial biochemistry that is much more diverse. The metabolites that microbes produce affect a range of things, including cholesterol and steroid metabolism.
What this ultimately means is that without our non-human component, we wouldn’t be ourselves at all.”
And in rat studies, you can turn obesity on and off with a flush and refresh of new gut bacteria. (summary, more).
You are what they eat.
