Wedding Pictures

Here is a slide show of all the pictures I took at Adam and Sally's wedding.

Covered Bridges

This past Saturday my family took a day vacation to Parke County. We went to three or four covered bridges, for which the county is famous, and spent some time in tourist shops, something that we don't often do, with which, need I mention, I am quite alright. We had fun as a family and I even snapped a few decent shots. Beth also took some nice pictures with her new camera. I think she is enjoying it a lot.

Flower and Bridge (need I state the obvious?)

Looking out of a bridge

"There's a light at the end this tunnel..."

"Shinin' bright at the end of this tunnel..."

The English Language

It is crazy.

How do you pronounce "clove?" Okay, now take the "c" off the front. The correct pronunciation for it is different from the original for no apparent reason. Its just the way it is.

Now say "wire." Is it one syllable or two? We say it like it is two syllables ("why-er"), but there is really only one.

Now say "baked." Easy enough, right? Okay, then, replace the first letter with an "n." Changes doesn't it. Again, no rhyme or reason. That is just the way it is.

When a young person, international, or I make a mistake pronouncing a word, give us a break. With so many rules which are only followed half the time, it is hard to know how to say a lot of words.

Battle of the Bugs

I shot this last summer.

Hummingbirds

A few days ago, I hung a hummingbird feeder just outside my window. Since then, I have been trying to take a good picture of the hummingbirds that come to it. I'm quite pleased with the results. By the way, don't you think the slide shows are really nifty?

Sally and Adam

Last Saturday Adam, Sally, Beth, Maria and I packed ourselves, along with Maria's bike, into Beth's car and headed off to Prophet's Town State Park. Our plan was to take pictures of Adam and Sally for their wedding announcements and other such things. We were surprisingly quite successful. Out of about 350 photographs we actually got a decent number of good ones!

Roses

Here are some pictures I took of roses.
