Walk A Fine Line

Spiders often seem to walk a fine line between being utilitarian constructionists and artists. This particular fellow had no such scruples. Taken with a FujiFilm S7000 at Mount Cooth-a, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Processed from RAW using UFRaw and the Gimp.

Airbus A380 - As far into the hangar as it gets

This is the new A380 when it made it's first visit to Australian soil - touching down at Brisbane airport for a quick Quantas paintjob before heading down south. Note the size of the massive semi-trailer parked on the apron of the hangar, then look at the plane! Maximum takeoff weight: 590,000 kg (1,300,700 lbs) - yup, a MILLION POUNDS! If you love your specs, you can check out some good A380 stats at <a href="http://www.thaitechnics.com/aircraft/a3xx.html" target="_blank">Thai Technics</a>

Toowong Cemetary, Brisbane Australia. Sad that some people get a thrill from defacing the resting places of others - with not even a piece of eight to show for it. Placed 30th (oh well) in the FujiMugs &quot;Movies&quot; challenge.

The Scan

Our lives are so full of &quot;little black boxes&quot; that hide from us a level of complexity that few of us truly grasp. This is a HeNe (Helium-Neon) Laser refracted across some PC-104 hardware, with a touch of dry ice to highlight the beam. The speckled nature of the red areas is inherent to laser light.

Rainbow Jetty

From November 2004. A thunderstorm had just passed out to the east, the sun was setting beneath the remaining cloud. I figured there was a good chance for a rainbow over the Sandgate jetty, the drive was worth it.
