I saw Keanna :D do this in one of her photos. Scanography. So I decided to try it & here is the outcome! I think it turned out pretty cool! Has any one else been having SUPER busy weekends? Well have a nice day! I'm baking cookies. Mmmm!
A Sharp-shinned hawk, drops by our yard on occasion to check on all it's little brothers and sisters to make sure they are paying attention!
The Olympus Four-Thirds DSLRs have had a bit of retro-popularity lately, mostly due to the cachet of the Kodak CCD sensors. The Evolt E-500 is not as unique as the E-300 and lacks the IBIS of the E-510, but it's a fun camera to play with. And, for what it's worth, it shares the same Kodak sensor.
These were taken using a Super-Takumar 55mm f2.0 lens.
Black Fantasy M8 makes purists cry with its two hacked off old space antennas tips and Sharppied pneumatic T section. All bley M8 looks on, pondering the meaning of purity.
I used a sharpie pen and thousands of tiny dots,it took a while.
Its funny how when you look back at a drawing and you see the mistakes that you made and they become so obvious,yet at the time of the layout you don't really spot them,bit of a bumma but a learning curve.
A female Sharp-shinned Hawk who visits every now and again. I went out on an upstairs deck to photograph her. I must have sent the smaller birds into hiding, judging from the look she gave me. She had been looking around intently for her next meal. After finding nothing to her liking, she left for the afternoon.

Quick test using a yellow Sharpie to colour trans-clear pieces trans-yellow. They sold two slightly different yellow colours of Sharpie, so I tried two different patches. In each case I’ve actually been over the area twice and I think you could get a darker yellow by just covering it more times. Fairly pleased with the results.
A new batch of Sharpie drawings in a new style. These drawings will be placed in public places for people to find, take home and enjoy.
A friend tells me her father used to call her bird-feeder a "hawk-feeder."
This afternoon I noticed a junco hiding under the tree on our deck, stock-still. So I looked around for what he was frightened by. Sure enough, this sharp-shinned hawk was just six or eight metres away, sitting in the apple tree.
Until I got too close, Sharpie wasn't bothered by me. He just kept looking around for a meal. When I did get in too close, he flew off next-door into another low tree. And then on his way.
The junco came out from hiding.
Well I had a heap of "Blue Milk" left over from my photo5 splat stock. What to do with it? There was no way I was eating blue wheatbix ;-)

I was just finishing up lunch when, looking through the dining room window, I saw a single goldfinch at the feeder. He was absolutely still, leaned away from the feeder, looking like he was watching. Then he made a quick dart into a bush below and he was being chased by this sharp-shinned hawk. The hawk missed his prey and went to this perch for a minute before moving on. It was long enough for me to get a shot.
A ponderosa pine cone before it opens up to deliver its seeds. A premature blow done; they usually remain on the trees until they've opened.
A no-show for the Peregrine today, but I didn't care. Thanks to Elliot for pointing out the Sharpie perched on the tree.
Just as work was ending today, I glanced outside my office window and watched this Sharpie settle to the ground with a Junco in it's talons.
If you zoom in on this pic, you can see that the Junco also has it's toes wrapped around the leg of the Sharpie.
Sadly for the Junco, it was the end of the line.
Not as sadly, for the Sharpie, it was the first (and today, the only) successful strike of the Sharpie. I watched it make four other attempts at grabbing one of the Juncos that were feeding in our back yard.
After bringing the Junco to the ground, the Sharpie resituated the Junco in it's talons and then flew off to a tree to partake of its bounty.

The Betsy D is a New Haven sharpie, a design that evolved from dugout canoes. The tall thin sails have sprit booms that are attached to the mast with a snotter line. They were used for oystering. This was taken at Port Townsend’s Wooden Boat Festival.
