David's Images of the Day Photoblog
Three of the 2010 America the Beautiful National Park Commemorative Quarters: Yellowstone National Park, Yosemite National Park, and Grand Canyon National Park. I need to track down the coins for Hot Springs National Park and Mount Hood National Forest
A 1928 Mercury Silver Dime. I got this as change from a grocery store tonight. Someone must have emptied a piggy bank. The coin is not in very good condition. Image taken with a Nikon D3x and 60 mm f/2.8 macro lens.
The Purple Crocuses have started blooming across the street. This is a good sign that spring is coming. In order to get a deeper depth of field (DOF) I took several images each with slightly different focus points, and then combined the images using Helicon Focus get the composite image. The focus range was just around the flowers, keeping the background leaves out of focus.

The invasive stink bugs that invaded Pennsylvania have expanded into New Jersey. They come into houses during the winter to stay warm. As seen here, one is feasting on a pink grapefruit that I just brought back from Florida.
A macro image of President Grant converted to false colors using a Nik Color Efex Pro 3 “Infrared Thermal Image” filter. Notice the “The United States of America” micro-print.
