OK, so I thought my photography needs some improvement. This PAD discipline should be fun, although I am not 100% sure I will be able to maintain a picture a day, but I will aim for at least several per week.
All feedback welcome, particularly constructive criticism.
The box on the right is the Linux server - it's sold as a NAS storage device (Linksys NSLU2) that all you need to do is attach a USB disk and away you go. But, there is an active community out there who have figured out how to load a full Linux distribution onto it, checkout http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Main/HomePage .

At the same time as photogrphing the sea anenome I found this tiny jellyfish (about 3cm across) in another rock pool. This creature was particularly difficult to photograph because of it's transparency... There are lots of specks of sand floating around in the water making the image look very noisy and dirty, but this was the best I got
