Condo photos

Here are some photos I took looking out from my new condo. I'm on the edge of a swampy conservation area, which I'm none too eager to explore. After dusk all manner of critters can be heard croaking away. The big ones sound like sheep.
There's gators in them there woods.

An anole looking to make his way inside my porch. I'm on the 3rd floor; I admire his determination:

From the TV room, you can see the nearby lake.
Lake Lotus

There's an older condo complex next door. This photo was taken on the morning of September 9th...
Nothing to see here

Zooming in a little: The bright spot is the space shuttle Atlantis launching from Cape Canaveral!

It was almost out of sight in a matter of seconds. When you see how fast it's going, it makes you realize that must be what an outgoing nuclear missile would look like. (Happy thought of the day.)


A full-frame image is here if you're geeky enough to be interested.

The smoke trail:


I don't have much to show of the interior of my condo yet, but some day I might actually paint. If anyone wants to come and volunteer, feel free. For now I have to say I'm enjoying my new home, especially because it provides a great view of local amphibians and space ships.
