crack seeds
Maple whirligigs vertically stuck in a crack in the sidewalk.
P.S. Click on "Archive by thumbnails" in the sidebar and tell me what you think. I just did a lot of coding for that, and I'm not sure whether or not it actually works. (Functionally.)

The thumbnail archive rocks! It kicks even more ass than the calendar-thingy over on MCDP, due to the photocentric nature of your blog(s).
I did notice one small error, which is that you've got an extra "http//" in your link to the wild strawberry photo. (Which works great if you want to see Wikipedia's entry on the Hypertext Transfer Protocol. Not so great if you want to see a wild berry picture by Josy of Ocean Twp, NJ.)
lovely work, josy...
check out this http://www.writedesignonline.com/history-culture/AndyGoldsworthy/yellowlinedandelion.jpg ... and, if you feel so inclined, google the artist... his body of work is one of the most impressive that i have seen in the past 10-15 years...
are they really called whirligigs? how interesting. you are becoming quite the little macro queen. very nice shootin'.
The thumbnails look great, nice job :)
the archive looks great... in fact, it really seems to have a synergistic effect for your work...
John- Thank you! Corrected. :)
m- Ah, Andy Goldsworthy... I always forget his name, but I instantly remember "Oh, THAT guy" whenever I see his work. It never ceases to impress the hell out of me.
And I do choose my photo of the day based on its immediate predecessors, so I'm glad it's (sort of) working. :D
RD- I Googled "names for maple seeds" a while ago. I've always called them "helicopters," but I don't like that term- it gets confusing, and I think it's a regional name. "Whirligig" is... well, I think it's regional, too, but to me, it's a little more descriptive and less confusing than "helicopter." It's scientifically called a "samura," but nobody knows that.
Paul- Yay! I'm already getting a royal kick out of it, so I'm happy I'm not the only one. :)
