Nice house for an architect. The dentils above the door really add nice detail. Cannot tell from the pic, but do the columns have the entasis?
 

Thanks. Yes, they are slightly curved. They're fluted and made out of wood. House was built in 1966. Columns are out of proportion... they're too skinny. And it could use proper entablature beneath the pediment, but otherwise it has a stately quality that is usually seen in bigger houses.

Well, imageshack works, but they're HUGE. Will try to edit them down a bit & get the F40 & LaFerrari up too.

Edit: Fixed....

Try postimages.org - you can select what size they resize your image to for posting.

Already fixed via imageshack. I had used the direct host link, which auto-resizes on another forum I'm on.
Didn't notice the separate link to select a different size to direct link.

That is a fine looking BHP...

I'm guessing it is a 'C' or 'T' series?

This is my 2011 gun show find: $375 private sale from a vendor that was selling Ma Deuce parts in the "machine gun" building.

I went out later and bought a lottery ticket as it must have been my lucky day!


1 out of 2 is fine.

On Sunday, the 24th, we did a little exploring on backroad road we never explored before. found some nice Petrified Wood, Agate and Bentonite Hills. Merry Christmas!!

Bentonite Hills:




Scattered Petrified Wood:

A friend of mine gave me a Canon 20D with a 17-85mm AF IS lens. Yesterday was the day I finally chose to familiarize myself with it. A couple of my attempts:

A new addition to my Christmas lights this year--a crape myrtle tree at the street:

Playing with the new EF 100-300mm f/4.5-5.6 USM lens I just received for my 20D, I caught this:



Not the most fascinating photo I've ever taken I wanted to catch him while he was dumping the can, but, by the time I saw them next door, got to the camera, got the lens cap off, got to the front door, got it open and got the lens on him, he was just getting on the step. Got focus just as the truck was getting into motion and *snap*.

That's about 100' away. Sky is overcast.

I'd love to have a back yard like that!

Thanks! I don't have solar power, but do have a wood stove and dogs - better heat than solar, and dogs are better entertainment that the 'net LOL!
