Not going to hurt you, but you posted the wrong links to your photos. We need to be members of Webshots to see them as they are posted. Make sure it is a public album, then you can email the links to yourself using their Invite, then posted those links here. That is how I made sure people here could see them.

And despite how depressing it is to see how much better people are then me, I would like the next assignment also JayRot.

What can I say, I’m not that great with deadlines. Too much time in grad school, I guess. Anyways, here are my three submissions:

My [macro shot](http://www.flickr.com/photos/tcp909/75412298/) was taken during an afternoon spent at the Paper Chase Cafe in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

While my work rarely means that I take the same route every day, I do pass an Anglican church, [St. Stephen-in-the-Fields](http://www.flickr.com/photos/tcp909/55712636/), when I head to the market.

This [odd perspective shot](http://www.flickr.com/photos/tcp909/77049029/) is of the Broadway Bridge in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. It’s one of my favorites.

I should add that I too look forward to the next mission.

OK, see if these work. (I had my album set to public, but I didn’t know about the self-inviting trick. Thanks for the tip)

Also, click full-size for a better look.

Thanks - I love your fire escape shot a lot.

I, too, am keen for a new assignment. It’s summer here and the light is magnificent, so something outdoorsy? Ideas?

Nope, if my kitten saw a mouse the mostly likely outcome would be that I would have to clean the carpet 'cause she’d crap then run. My kittens are cute but they are wimps.
