I think both of these can fit into a few different catagories, but I think this one is...
Perception, and patterns. I like the way the light bulb is the focal point, and then you have the glass around it with patterns on it, and then the patterns in the base of the fan, and the patterns in the blade of the fan. I wish the lighting was a little more even in the picture, but that was because the other two lights on the fan were on and this one wasn't. I actually like this pictures composition though.

This one I think fits in the Texture, and Lines catagory. Interesting the things you can take a picture of, and how they can draw your eyes into it. My front door is a peice of junk in reality, but this picture shows a different quality about it I think. Its fun practicing, and seeing what I can find.

I used the manual aperture macro setting on my camera to get these pics. I zoomed in on the fan, and just did a normal range on the door. I didn't change the coloring or anything else in the pictures which is something I usually edit in picasa 3. Its fun to take a picture and not have to do anything to it! The one thing I did do in editing is I cut a little bit off the top of the picture of the fan to make it more even with the bottom. I also used a fine shutter speed setting. I don't know how much of a difference it made, except for capturing a little more detail I think.
