Spring ... always lovely.

I took these last spring, always a nice reminder of the return of lovely weather.

Water drops

The weather is forecast to improve this week, but last week was an opportunity for water droplet photos.

The Toffee Tin

My friend just launched an awesome new company called the Toffee Tin. The toffee is amazing, very different than traditional toffee with a light buttery crunch but doesn't stick to your teeth. I took a few photos to showcase the tasty.

Cactus Garden

Uncle Ron has added to the cactus collection. Wonderful still life of some exotic Idaho plants.

At the Beach

Sand and Surf

Wildflowers of western Washington

I have been out taking photos like this all spring. The flowers are truly beautiful on this side of the mountains. My allergies are overwhelmed.

The Chelsey-Henry 2011 Collection

The company website has this wonderful collection for sale.

The blog is back!

A short break while I finished up the last my graduate school requirements .... and I am back! Now a photo tribute to my research to mark the occasion.

Late Breaking Leaves

This is a late post of my fall photos, but everyone needs more color in the mid-winter right?

Exploring Faith and Math

I am starting a new series exploring faith and mathematics. Many scientist write about the ties they see between religion and mathematics including Carl Sagan, John C. Polkinghorne (my favorite) and many more.

My series is based on transcendental numbers and scientific constants. Hopefully they are a thought-provoking look at your own faith, whether you believe in God, science, or both.

This image is called "the transcendental nature of prayer". None of the 5 trillion digits of pi calculated to date repeat. Can we quantify prayer?

The launch of like

Just a quick note to let the website fans know that "like" is now available on every photo for facebook and twitter. So spend a moment to find something you like! Or you could just like this one. :)

ENGINEER

Alphabet photography.

UW Botany Greenhouse

I took a trip to the University of Washington Botany Greenhouse in search of Fibonacci. The final spirals are in the entry gallery here. More cactus and plants here.

Bread is Beautiful

I was privileged to taste a few of these. There is almost nothing better than fresh bread.

Olympic Events - Size small

I took my niece ice skating a few weeks ago. This is her first (new) pair of ice skates and the first time she has ever seen the Olympics. Just wanted to share this tiny tribute to the wonderful athletes new and old!

The Heat Transfer Lab

These hot spheres (balls) may look familiar to many of you. Lumped capacitance is the best!

Jam

Savory and delicious. Rasberry lime, strawberry, blackberry apricot ... jam, jam, jam.

Squares

Another contest entry with the theme "square".
