Hearing Nothing at the moment

Doing the Wave




For this week's Photo Shoot, I asked folks to post pictures of people waving hello (just like they're doing here in Iowa City, where I spoke last night). Here's what we have of hands in motion:

Anaedream waves via Webcam

The Banana Bunch

The 8th grade field trip to Mount Vernon


A mermaid waves to you

A little wave

Some hacktastic writer waves at you from Mavarin's page

Mickey Dolenz waves hello

Waving before a snow storm

A feline wave

A boy and his duck

Waiting on the next big wave


This was a happy-making Photo Shoot, because it was so darn friendly. Thanks, everyone!

    There's like 4-10 people who take part in this stuff who I read but am unable to leave comments for because I'm too stupid to figure out the comment system on their page hoster thingy. I just wanted that on the Internet somewhere.

    Mavarin, Jottings From Jersey, that guy with the duck.... keep up the good work, and know that not all who appreciate are able to say so.

    How sad that you went from Portand to Iowa City!  I used to live in Des Moines.  They just don't compare.  ::shaking head sadly::
