Digital Media and whatever else flows through my head…

Excuse me, but I’m getting quite a charge out of your bikini…
Dec 20th
A bikini top that is covered with solar cells and wired to charge a USB device. I’m sure there are some jokes there based on the fact that the larger the… umm… top the more ‘juice’ is generated. I won’t reduce myself to that kinda humor.
Where did Dreamland Blues go?
Dec 18th
After years of the gracious hospitality of a long-time friend Dreamland Blues Radio is moving to a new home. I was not able to finish construction of the new site before the old site was taken down so things are up in the air for a bit.
Fear not, after 9 years I’m not about to give up now! Talk amoungst yourself until I get things patched back together.
No, honest, I have to work late.

Yes, I know.. I’ve been horribly neglecting my blog peeps of late but I’ve been busy. No, really! There was this guy and he had a dog that could speak…
Ok, so if I were using Skype and this new plug-in you would have know that I was telling a whopper. A bit on the ooky side for me.

I sure do have an itchy shutter finger…

We shot over 1520 images during our trip to India! We’ve spent the last 3 weekends reviewing them, tossing the obviously ‘bad’ ones and tweaking some of our faves.
Now comes the hard part… carving that list down to a management number that I can post to my Flickr account. In the mean time I’m going to return the photo stream link on the left to point back to my camphone pics.
And then reality set it…

Tonight we give our good-byes to our new friends and leave for home. I’ve posted a few more shots on the photo stream but this will be it until we return.
After the food we’ve had the last 10 days I’m sure the food back home will be very bland. But I am looking forward to sleeping in the same bed for more than 2 nights in a row.
See ya when we get home!
…then he said the magic word… TIGER!
Nov 12th
Extraordinary! Everywhere we look is a perfect picture. I have no clue how I’m going to edit down the massive number of photos we’ve taken. I have no idea how I would have done this with a film camera.

The highlight of the last few days, and for me the high point of the trip, was a visit to the Ranthambore Nature Park. Of course the main goal was to see a tiger, but the park has a large number of other indigenous animals. We saw sambar deer, spotted deer, macaque monkeys, mongoose, tree pies, green parrots to name just a few. It wasn’t until the second of two trips through the park, bouncing furiously on the two-track trail, when the spotter indicated that we should all be quiet. He then after a few tense seconds, pointed into the woods and uttered the word I had been hoping to hear… TIGER!
We lingered for almost an hour as she rolled around under the shade, played in a small pond, and then trotted off. It was amazing!
I’ve uploaded a few new pics to the Flickr photostream. As always, you can see them on the left, just click on them to see bigger versions.
There is PLENTY of other stuff to share, but connection time is precious. More later…
Update [2008-dec-14]: I’ve added links in the original post that lead to related pics in my Flickr India trip photo set. The entire set (319 shots) can be viewed as a slide show here.
