I've got an unremarkable but well-used SD1000 Digital Elph point-and-shoot which has been to some pretty cool places with me. Here are some of my more fun and interesting photos, organized by album:

Fantastical Maps

Ever since I first discovered the maps in the leading pages of The Lord of the Rings or Redwall, I've enjoyed doodling maps. Lately, I have turned my recently acquired artistic skills to use to produce some much fancier cartographic products than doodles in the pages of a notebook.

Drawings

During the spring semester of 2006, I took the introductory drawing course at Williams, taught by Ed Epping. It made a great change of pace from my physics thesis work at the time! This was one of the Williams classes that I really loved - I have always enjoyed doodling, but this was my opportunity to recieve some formal training in art. I kept my supplies and occasionally bring them out for some sketching from time to time. Most of the drawings are chalk, charcoal, and red conte crayon on various grades of Bristol vellum, with some pencil-and-graphite drawings mixed in.

Computer Generated

I used to do a bit of playing around with TerraGen. It all started with some custom skyboxes for my Jedi Outcast/Jedi Academy maps (e.g. here and here), and then I began generating images for their own sake. I haven't done any new ones in a while, but I might pick it up again, and in the meantime here are some of my old favorites.
