Journal >> Previous Entry: 06/24/02 >> 06/25/2002 >> Next Entry: 07/01/02 Posted at 12:36 PM PST: "Seadragons" Photos have been recovered. Leafy and Weedy Seadragons are some of my favorite ocean critters. Hmm. I'm trying to think of more to say, but nothing is coming out. Sorry about the different photo templates. My big machine is lying unplugged in Tony's Queens living room, while I am still in Manhattan. I'll try to remember to fix it next week when we are reunited.Holy megabytes! In May 2002 alone, echeng.com moved 7.99GB of data. It's well under my 30GB limit, but it's still a lot of content. And, the #1 search term was "pooping" -- no doubt referring to this page. I'd like to think that people are finding me for the other content on the site, but... *sigh* :)

Opinions: 9 comments The first time I saw seadragons was in the Boston Aquarium--they were part of a traveling exhibit from Australia. I could have gazed at their ethereal beauty for hours... Great pictures! posted by Katie @ 07/03/2002 01:35 pm PST

Google does wonders. :) http://www.amonline.net.au/fishes/students/focus/seadrag.htm posted by echeng @ 06/26/2002 07:55 am PST They're from southern australia, and are very close relatives to seahorses (with males brooding the eggs). I found some more information here, if you're interested: http://www.dragonsearch.asn.au/ As for clear photos -- I actually thought these were sort of blurry. I was hand-holding, and don't have the benefit of using a 1D, like Adam does. heh... :) You need a tripod in these conditions to get really sharp photos. I feel sorry for all the people around me taking flash photos of aquariums (sort of like people standing on skyscrapers taking flash photos of the skyline at night). They're going to get a dark photo with a big-ass white spot in the middle. No fishies for their memories. posted by echeng (yours truly) @ 06/26/2002 07:53 am PST Hey, how the heck do you take photos through the glass like that?? :) They're so clear. posted by SOphie @ 06/25/2002 09:08 pm PST The Seadragons are beautiful, they look like a close relative of seahorses. Where are they from? Cool picture of the Emerald Tree Boa and the frog too. posted by Dave P @ 06/25/2002 04:04 pm PST wow! i don't recall ever seeing critters like these. they're awesome! posted by eric (the um, other one ... :) @ 06/25/2002 02:56 pm PST |
