Picture of the day (I got a new camera). I doubt I will really do a picture a day but I like this one. It's some really fuzzy clouds in a weird pattern.

The 10s, 30s and 40s on Flickr

I'm pretty much a history nut but I don't think you need to be to enjoy the new US Library of Congress Photo Collections on Flickr. The collections is called the Commons and, right now, it contains two sets of pictures. 1615 color photos from the 1930s and 1940s around the US and its territories and 1500 black and white photos from newsworthy events in the 1910s.

These are some incredibly amazing photos. I didn't know photos like this existed back then.

There are photos from all over the country but some of the most intriguing are pictures of the people. Most are in unposed positions. Really absorbing. I can sit for hours and browse through these.

The best part of these are that they are being released freely for use by anyone.

I have a baby!

Hi all.

I'm back after a long break. I have a new son, Leo. I've been enjoying spending time with him (and my first son Logan and my wife). Logan is playing on the floor right now with some of his Christmas presents and Leo is being fed by my wife.

We had to postpone Christmas with the in-laws due to my father-in-law having surgery. We'll get with them next weekend. My mom is in New Orleans. I'll call her in a little while.

I plan to get back into my blogging her very shortly.

For now, here is a picture I played with to make it Christmasy. I am not very artistic but I am irrationaly proud of this picture. ;-)



Merry Christmas!

LewisC
