December Birthdays Photo Album Added
I just added a photo album containing a few pictures taken during the birthday party for David and Alan. Most of the pictures taken that day were on film, hence the small number.

Astronomy Picture of the Day
The Astronomy Picture of the Day is a site I recently stumbled upon, and then immediately bookmarked. Each day, a different picture is posted with astronomical ties. Not only are the pictures amazing, but each of them is also described with hyperlinks leading from that page to others which further explain concepts or provide other examples. Very cool stuff!

A One Gigapixel Image
Yes, that isn't a typo - one GIGAPIXEL. A gent composited 196 separate 6 megapixel pictures to form a single image of 40,784 by 26,800 pixels. Check out the (reduced) image and a description of how he did it here.
