nationalgeographic.com has a really cool feature on their website. It's called
Your Shot and it's where you can submit a photo you took and it may be picked for the Daily Dozen. Melissa, you should do that! Sign up
here. These are some photos that I found really pretty.
Crazy, but those are pine cones that were frozen and crystallized in New England during the worst winter storm of the season. The photographer took it while he was on the way out for emergency supplies; they had no electricity for five days!
A bumblebee and hummingbird are arguing over the nectar. I forgot which one flew away and lost; I think it was the bee.
Dutch dancing!
The man felt a pair of eyes on him, so he looked over to his neighbors. This little guy was on the roof watching him! I love owls.
Canadian geese..looks pretty chilly!
I really,really, really love this photo. His eyes are beautiful and the colors are great.
This was taken in Africa. They were having lunch and this little lion was 5o feet away from them. He was completely content and ignored them. His dinner was already served!
I'm pretty sure this is in India, but I don't know for sure. I love how the goats are looking at her with smiles!
The photographer drives cross country many times due to his job. He always sees homeless people. This is one man and his dog.
I'm not too sure where this is.
The story behind this is they threw the flowers in the ocean for a memorial of their brother in law. They came back to the beach the next day and all the flowers were standing upright in the sand.
HA! Dog at 80 mph on interstate..seems to be a sunroof!
A Romanian woman. She is sick since an invasion. I would much rather look like her than
this.
A refuge in Africa. He's waiting for food
It's a field for old model cars! Isn't it so nice?
Isn't that cool? It was built on a beach in India.
These are gold coins that are made in England and to be shipped over to the U.S. It has Obama's face on it to honor his inauguration. It's value is twenty dollars!
The newspaper in Paris already had the image of Barack and Michelle Obama walking down to the oath!
However, not all countries are supportive. This is in Lebanon; the woman with the "baby" (wrapped up cloth) represents all the innocent killings that happened.
They are burning Obama's picture in Iran.
The Bush and Obama's
Colin Powell and author Elie Wiesel. Elie Wiesel has written numerous books, one being Night. In Sophmore English, we read it. Elie Wiesel survived the Nazi camp, Auschwitz, which was one of the worst. It's cool he was there!
These are only some camera men who were setting up before the inauguration started.
Before massive crowds.
Jason took this of us while we were setting up.
Jason also took this on of Kristy and Ricky going out to the car.
Uncle Johnny and Aunt Yvonne! Uncle Johnny respects my picture taking; Aunt Yvonne, not so much.
Mr. "I Don't Like Kids" was holding Gabby, Buffa and Katherine's girl, for half the reception. Keep your eyes peeled out for how many pictures feature these two.
Some of the family eating/talking.
"Gawd!" Aunt Jessie should trademark that.
