    Argh!

    ” … WINTER WEATHER TO RETURN TO INTERIOR NORTHERN CALIFORNIA THIS WEEKEND…

    A STORM SYSTEM FROM THE GULF OF ALASKA WILL DROP SOUTH ALONG THE WEST COAST AND MOVE THROUGH THE REGION THIS WEEKEND. THIS SYSTEM WILL BRING COOLER TEMPERATURES ALONG WITH GUSTY WINDS. PRECIPITATION MAY START EARLY SATURDAY OVER THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS AND BY LATE SATURDAY MORNING OVER THE WESTERN SLOPES OF THE SIERRA NEVADA.”

    There go my plans for this contest :/

    And then the cold hits the midwest and frost sets in to the early crops then the season goes to crap and the lack of crops leads to dustbowl and the soil nutrients blow away in the wind and…. Hey! We areally are repeating the 30’s!

    LOL it’s not gonna be that bad, but we’re trying to figure out if the place is open today or not. Their ‘hotline’ has yesterday’s status still, with a note that due to the weather they may be closed and that I should call before heading up there.

    72 and sunny here.. got some great shots at the arboretum last weekend.

    My problem is that the contests open so late I never get anything submitted until the next morning.

    I totally heart staplermofo’s sense of humor.

    /there wasn’t anything else to do to the word heart.
    //too tired to make it linked to, like, a heart.

    I’m using my favorite shot that I’ve taken so far with my d60. It’s a simple shot of a strand of wildflowers. Don’t know what it is I just fell in love with it instantly. I’m very interested to see how it resonates with others.

    If it’s like any of my favorites that I posted it will resonate like this… *thud*

    Farktography is a fickle beast, but that’s what makes it more fun than a regular photo contest

    At least with the weather going sour last weekend I got a chance to finish setting up my studio in the garage.

    I don’t see why artificial flowers would be a problem. The theme just says flowers.

    Hmmm… artificial flowers? I’m thinking of taking a risk now… we’ll see how that goes too. 😉

    Elsinore, do you have some kind of bug sex trigger on your camera, or what? How does that work exactly? I’m stunned by the frequency of your kinky bug pics. With that said, well done!

    I think you fared pretty well, Els; some of those other superpowers are apparently more than they’re Cracked up to be. (Pun intended).
