I was hoping for Wilford Brimley

hyku is already casting Blog, the movie. Brian Cox plays yours truly. I see by that last link he's a year older than me. Scary.

Flying wide

After reading Docworld Mapping Project at Irish Eyes, I decided to gang-upload a great big pile of old pix shot from planes, all taken before I had a good camera. Everything you see, going back in the series that ends here, was photographed with a Sony DCR-PC110 or DCR-PC120BT camcorder in camera mode. They're 1.5 megapixel shots, and on the grainy side. But the subjects are amazing landforms: Mount St. Helens, Mt. Hood, Capitol Reef, Cedar Breaks, Painted Cave, Gaviota Coast, plus dunes, salt ponds, mines and clearcut forests.

The idea here is to gang-produce a book of photos from planes. I can't imagine a better project that would take less effort.

Department of Corrections

After reading this response to yesterday's Taking the fork post, I posted some additional thoughts about the matter(s).
