Attack of the photos

I'm going to be posting photos here, from my humble collection. I'm experimenting with different photo-hosting options, so I'll be trying them all out here.
This is one of the first photos I took with my digicam (a Canon PowerShot G3). Came out OK. In future, I'll try to post some of the EXIF info here. The full-size image is here: http://image38.webshots.com/39/0/15/58/333201558VDJMgq_fs.jpg Making this a link does not work. Try pasting it into the address bar.

We wantsss it, preciousss....

Books read...

So, this is supposed to be a booklog , right? Here's what I've read recently:
  • The Confusion by Neal Stephenson. Wow.
  • Ringworld's Children by Larry Niven. Yechh.

Currently reading : The System of the World by Neal Stephenson.
< rant >
Why, in the name of all that is unholy, do booksellers in India get books 1 and 3 in a trilogy, and don't get book 2? I've had to hang on to The System of the World for months before I could get The Confusion. Yeesh.
