Iris 2
____________________________________

Please forgive the slight break in the Travelogue. I have some re-thinking to do on the Travelogue as it is and, besides, it's that Year in Review time of year again.

I initially thought I'd do two "Year in Review"s, one with psychedelic images and one with 'normal' images. Looking over my images from the past year I realized two things: (a) last year was the first year I had the Psychedelic Camera and (b) most of the images I took over 2007 were psychedelic images. The exception to (b) was, in the majority, images from the just-completed trip to the UK.

And since it would hardly be sporting to show the same images twice in such rapid succession, I figured I'd say another "I can't express my thanks enough" to victory_rose for the gift of the D50 and present 12 of my favorite Psychedelic Images from 2007.

The first image is one of my all time favorites. It was a blue iris blossom I found at the local Farmer's Market one Saturday around mid-day. I set it down on a picnic table and took several close-up pictures of it. What I saw on the LCD screen amazed me. The colors were so vivid and had so little to do with the colors I was seeing in front of me without the camera!

It was one of those This is SOOOOO cool! moments.
