Amelia loves fish and crackers - so goldfish crackers are a great snack! Isn't this a fun picture? Visit more of this photographer's pics called "Hooked on Colors." Lots of fun colored food.

Photo of note - helix nebula AKA Eye of God

This is a picture taken from the Hubble telescope of a planetary nebulae (the glowing gas around a dying, Sun-like star). It's been referred to in urban legend email forwards as the "Eye of God", but NASA just calls it Helix Nebula. Here's what NASA has to say about it:

Photo of note - don't fall in!

I think we are all happy the shuttle *finally* got back up into space. Here's a cool shot taken by NASA Science Officer John Phillips from the space station of Hurricane Emily on July 17, 2005.

Photo of note - Iraqi child's hand signals

A photojournalist snapped this one in Iraq, and titled it "Hearts and minds." A smiling child, carrying colorful boxes (tissues maybe?), flipping the foreign photographer the bird. I love it. I think it shows frustration, hope, and fun all at the same time. What do you think?

Photos of note - London
Speaking of the London attacks, here's some striking images from Mike Golden - a London photographer. Here's what he says about these images (click on image to enlarge):
Aftermath.
Two contrasting images that depict the unusual end of a terrible day, the worst terrorist
attack in the UK and largest loss of life since the second world war. As I write this more than 50 are confirmed dead and that figure will definitely rise as the conditions underground where three of the four bombs were detonated are described as "Torturous".
These images depict two of the busiest roads in the city of London at rush hour.
The first image depicts an endless stream of thousands of workers trying to make their way home without any of London's transport system. No Tube, no buses and limited overground rail services. Me, I walked for an hour and half all the way home, past endless queues of static cars.
The second image is Commercial St. deserted. I have never seen it this way before at any time of day or night. Much of the city of London looked like this, like an unrealistic scene from a movie.
