A jet engine
This carnation is surrounded by the mouth of a German Tischreste (table-waste) bowl, but it is scarily reminescent of a turbo-jet engine.
I don't know flowers
It is a shame, but I must admit it...
I don't know flower names! This could be a dandelion, for all I know!
It sure is beautiful, though.
Flavo-bottle
The bottom of a bottle of caffeine-free, calorie-free, sodium-free, phenylketonuric "Clear American Black Cherry Sparkling Flavored Beverage".
That darned cat!
My cat became intrigued by the moving scanner beam and the bouquet of aromatic flowers, so I took an attack of opportunity.
Pollen, pollen, pollen
I'm not sure what this part of a flower is called, but it seems to be holding tons of the good stuff...
Agony
My brother's expression in this scan reminds me of Edvard Munch's The Scream and Dante's Inferno.
Dangly fingers
Wouldn't it be funny if one were actually to have a dozen or so fingers floating and spinning vaporously beneath each hand?
A New Adventure
Yup, fun times. I can post MUCH higher-res photographs, if anyone wants them. Cheers!
I graduated on May 21 from the Arkansas School for Mathematics, Science, and the Arts. On May 23, my family and I arrived in Colorado Springs, Colorado. My father and younger brother had moved to the area in December, when my father began teaching German at the Air Force Academy. I had stayed in Hot Springs, AR to finish high school there.
In late August, I will be flying to New York to begin my studies at the Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science at Columbia University. Currently I plan on studying applied math and mechanical engineering - perhaps I will major in applied math and minor in mechanical engineering.
I was chosen to be a C. Prescott Davis Scholars, one of the top 25 of the 1000 incoming SEAS freshman. I don't care for the glory or such, but I really do appreciate the practical aspects of being a CP Davis Scholar. For one, it caused the finacial aid office to give me a full-tuition grant, minus expected family contribution per FAFSA. I'll also get to attend special dinners and lectures by important people from outside of Columbia, which will assist in building connections. The Scholars office generally devotes special attention to the scholars, making Columbia life and studies that much more fulfilling.
So I'm in Colorado Springs, Colorado, looking for an internship, and doing other things until I get one. Like scanning things...
Flowers, for example:
