I showed part of this before, but wanted to put a bigger version up to show just how complicated it is.

Using pascal's wager? Moon dust? The beauty of the trees/clouds? Irreducible complexity? Faith healing stories? Arguments from authority? Threats? Prayers? Personal warm fuzzies? Tsk, tsk. I am unimpressed with your flawed arguments for a deity.
Lee Graham at the Amazing Meeting 5 in Las Vegas, talking about his Java applet.
One of the creationist arguments against evolution is built around "Irreducible Complexity" - if there's a mechanism that doesn't work if any of its pieces is missing, that mechanism can't have evolved. Lee Graham has written a relatively simple game (which, however, doesn't run in my browser, well, that's Java applets for ya), and a genetic algorithm to evolve players for the game, that refutes that theory by frequently - in about half the trials - evolving irreducibly complex players!
This was a good talk. Although Lee is an Artificial Intelligence grad student, he explained genetic algorithms without AI jargon, and his software does things like animate motion between game "DNA" and the center of the screen where mutations take place to really make clear what's going on.
In front of the speaker: Probably the ugliest poster of an event I've actually been to, ever.
The line continued to grow as people waited for their chance to get an autograph from the OpTic Gaming squad.

Matt celebrating after getting the final kill of his 12-4 performance on Freight S&D against CurseNY to win the series.
(Very noisy when viewed with Chrome...looks great with IE8.)
Did a few things differently here for these tiny Daisies (when measured petal tip to petal tip at their widest diameters they are respectively 1/2" to 5/8" wide, and the yellow center portions measure anywhere from 1/8" to 3/16"): I am confronted with a dark rainy day today so for the first time I have shot my micros of these tiny flowers with flash, inside, utilizing a different background in some shots. Overall I'm pretty pleased with the results.

Some of these photographs appear to be close-ups of regular-sized flowers; they are not. All of these photos are micro (macro) photographs of the super-tiny blooms that blossom on the common weeds in my yard.
Many people assume that these flowers are, for example, squash or zucchini-sized flowers, or that they are flowers 1" in diameter or larger and are perhaps on stems a foot tall or so. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Most of these flowers when measured petal tip to petal tip at their widest diameters measure 1/4" (6mm) across…or less...the entire bloom is that small. And the average stem height is only a few inches tall, if that.
The smallest weed flower I've shot yet is a small ring of flowers that measured less than 1/32" (.7mm) in diameter which encircled a spire which measured about 1/64" (0.3mm) in diameter.
For some photos I’ve included references to common objects such as the head of a paper match, or the head of a pin, which dwarfs some of these tiny flowers! On some others I’ve listed a description of the actual size of each object in the photo.
For size comparisons to these objects view my set here:

So far I've made over 700 photographs of over 50 varieties of weed flowers.
I hope that seeing the variety, beauty, and intricate complexity of this small world astonishes and pleases you as much as it has me.
Thanks for looking.
