And then I dipped the tomato in olive oil (a hydrophobic substance) and dropped and watched again:
Much bigger splash, much cooler picture. Science is awesome!

hydro-awesome
okay this is kind of lame, but I didn't have one to post today so I had my own little science experiment and photographed it, and here it is: I dropped a clean tomato in a bowl of water and watched the splash:

New Hobby?
building picture frames with dad...
I'm beginning to suspect that this project of mine isn't really improving or challenging my photography skills so much as making me okay with posting mediocre photos. i guess you can't get gold everyday, still i wish i was a little happier with my posts so far. oh welllllll.

I'M LATE! / Happy New Year!
Oh my goodness, so here it is 2 weeks into my personal one photo per day challenge and I have already broken my own rules. To be fair I did take the photos on time and selected them/added them to my computer at only 1:00 am...but I spent New Years at Burlington's First Night and the hotel we stayed at charged money for the internet; so while I wanted to post on time, I didn't "$10.00" want to post them...if you know what I mean. So anywho, hope all 4 of my readers had the happiest of happy new years! And as promised, below is my new years ever photo, taken just before the Dixie 6 show at First Night (a fun and upbeat dixieland/new orleans style jazz band). This little girl was dancing and I caught her while taking a break.
Okay, next, the New Years Day photo. I rung in my New Year on the top floor of a Burlington parking garage in the gently falling snow with a bottle of champagne watching the fireworks over the lake. It was pretty great. This shot was taken after the celebration was over, my brother is standing in the background where I was when I popped the cork on the champagne, the foreground is the cork.
Its blurry, but it captures the magic of the evening pretty well.

brewery touring
Starting with dinner and drinks at the Alchemist in Waterbury last night, I have been working my way through the Vermont brewery tour. (Side note: The Alchemist is HIGHLY recommended...fabulous food, great beer, and great atmosphere...but come early, it was packed shortly after we arrived at 5:15 on a Tuesday night) Today we visited Magic Hat, Zero Gravity (at American Flatbread in Burlington), and The Vermont Pub and Brewery. It was a fun day with lots of great brews, some silly pictures, and yummy food. Below is my photo of the day, waht better than a beer to represent today? This is a Dark Brown Raspberry Ale called Wassail from the Zero Gravity Brewery. It was less robust than I had hoped, but still rather tasty if you like fruit beers.

Now, in the interest of fairness I will post photos from the other two Breweries as well, though these are not necessarily taken by me.

And last, but most surely not least, this one is from Magic Hat...in the information super hallway, where we learned about the Magic of Magic Hat Beer:
What a Brew-ti-ful Day!
