Here's a series a shots with animals in them.
These are from all over so the only connecting theme is animals.

Photo project, "Greek myth"

Since I do not have a scanner,  I have used my digital camera to take pictures of prints that I made using a film camera and darkroom printing. The project is a modern interpretation of the greek myth of Icarus.

Trapped in the everyday

A reason to escape

The first flight

Falling on deaf ears

To close to the sun

Gravity takes hold

Living with a goat

This is the goat I live with.

"Oh hi!"

Like most baby animals he started out adorable and innocent. With few warning signs as to the shenanigans that he would commit.

"When I grow up I'm going to shit all over EVERYTHING!"

This goat has a few favorite pastimes, among them is pooping, eating, pooping more, ramming his horns into things and knocking stuff over. Occasionally he will become stuck in things and this makes for great entertainment.

Hilarity ensues

To summarize a goat is a interesting pet to have. There are pros,  he is a biological lawnmower  and I guess their crap is good for gardening or something... and there are cons as well, such as the noise of him ramming the house, him destroying things by jumping on them, and of course... the poop.

Also this is what greets me when i look out the window of the back porch door.

"I must feed mortal"

The dead look in his eyes still creeps me out...

scenic shots

Here's a collection of shots I took at different locales,

whenever i see some big dramatic horizon i like to bust out the camera

Flooding

Heres some pics of the floodwaters after heavy rains,  I had to be creative to get around the city!  walking on walls and what not...

Took this at the coast in Tijuana.
