Various photos that I have taken over the years
Saw this on a recent Boing Boing post:This Flickr group is for people who create striking abstract photos by setting their cameras for long exposures and then tossing them in the air.
I recently took some pictures of my Mac in the dark with the only source of illumination being the blue lights of the hard disks, the red lights of the optical mouse and the green lights of my adsl modem.

This picture takes in my whole desk. From left to right you can see a firewire hard disk, a USB hard disk, a 23″ Cinema display, an optical mouse, an ADSL modem, a Linksys NSLU2 and a network switch. The case of the Apple G5 is not visible as it is stashed to the left of the desk to save space.

Next time I need to move my airport base station into the frame so I can have some white illumination.
The monitor insisted it would be arriving in 12 minutes, all the way until 12:03 p.m. Sydney Rail must be celebrating the 100th anniversary of Einstein’s theory of relativity as they conclusively proved that time flows at a different rate for different observers, depending on their frame of reference. If I remember correctly from my high school days, trains were used quite often to present the ins and outs of the Theory of Relativity.
Around 11:30 p.m last night I hit the platform at Town Hall station to grab the last train bound for Chatswood. The next train would be arriving in about 24 minutes, at around 11:54 p.m. “Sweet” I thought, time to chill out and listen to some podcasts. Around 11:42 p.m the platform monitor showed it arriving in 12 minutes. At 11:50 p.m it was still arriving in 12 minutes.
