This weekend was our neighborhood fest. When I was a kid they called them carnivals, and to me they look the Popup Linksame and have the same kind of rides like the Popup Linkferris wheel and the Popup Linkzipper and the Popup Linkfunhouse. I don't remember petting zoos at the carnivals. The Fests of today have exotic petting zoos with animals like this Popup LinkCamel and this Popup LinkBaby Camel and these Popup Linkpigs and of course this Popup Linkllama .

Since we have had so many cute kitty pictures, I thought I would post some demon kitty pictures. This is Chrystal and she has a very bad habit of chewing on everything: Popup LinkBad Girl Popup LinkDon't even think about it

Went to the Aquarium last week, took tons of pics, but only a few turned out. I was broken hearted. Then I turned to Photographica and got inspired to use photoshop. In fact, I went a little overboard. Check out what you can do with a crappy pic: Popup LinkThis is the only pic I got of a standing dolphin

This Chicago pic was taken inside the Aquarium not very pretty, but I liked the lines: Popup Link1 Popup Link2 Popup Link3 Popup Link4 <popup<p>

I went a little crazy with this reef pic also:Popup Link2 Popup Link3 Popup Link4 Popup Link5 Popup Link6 Popup Link7

I did a couple tonight for the assignment:Popup LinkThis one has no filters, just played with the contrast Popup LinkUsed PS extruded Popup LinkAgain no filters

Went to a Nature reserve a few weeks ago and realy liked the silo I saw: Popup Linksilo1, Popup Linksilo2 and Popup Linksilo3. Whats a nature reserve without some animals this Popup LinkTurkey was real proud of himself,and this Popup LinkChicken would not stop primping.

We also visited a forest perserve: Popup Link PratWayne , Popup LinkPrat Wayne3 I thought you might like a close-up of the scum on the lake: Popup LinkPrat Wayne4. I found a Popup LinkMushroom with fuzzies stuck to it.

I got a picture of my first Popup LinkRainbow.

Has any one heard of Popup LinkLaddergolf ? My inlaws brought it back from Florida. My family loves it. The object is to toss the golf balls around one of the ladder rungs for points. You have to use two ladders. There is a web site with the rules. Just google "Ladder golf"

These are just random shots of different parks and preserves:Popup LinkMarsh Popup LinkTunnel Popup LinkBoys on trees Popup LinkGreen Bridge and Popup LinkBrook. By the way does anyone know what this is: Popup LinkUmbrella Plant It grows in large Popup LinkPatches .

I went out at lunch and found this Popup LinkReflection for the assignment. Then I saw this Popup LinkSeagull and I got distracted. Popup LinkGoose Families and Popup LinkGoose Babies were every where. Then I remebered a few weekends ago I got this Popup LinkNesting Goose and the Popup LinkNesting Goose with the Dad.This Popup LinkBlackbird was just sitting there for me too, however, I did come up with one more reflection, it has a Popup LinkBeaver swimming in the middle of it.If you look hard enough you can see his nose.

Thanks for all the comments! Some of you were interested in my wall reflection. I have posted here the full picture. Kind of an average building, quite common here in Wood Dale, Il. Popup LinkProffesional Building It was the reflection that interested me. My family hikes a lot on the weekends and I get a chance to visit a lot of different parks. The next two pictures were taken while hiking. I can't pass up a good reflection!
