You can see I'm either getting desperate or stir crazy when I start taking pictures of the compact florescent light bulbs we are now using in the United States. Actually the federal government is promoting them but my husband, along with millions of Americans who don't appreciate being told what to do, has been stock piling the old style bulbs for months so he should be prepared to hold back the night for many years to come.
I am not a fan of these bulbs, but I guess as they look at ways to save on the electric, and our wallets, we won't have much of a choice in the near future.
I hate these light bulbs! They hurt my eyes. I guess I should start doing what your husband is doing. The whole "green" thing is a huge fallicy- they have mercury in them! Doesn't anyone remember the mercury scare from the 70's? I just think it's a marketing ploy.
LOL!!! I'm with your hubby, and yesterday bought a 16 bulb pack for only $3 at Home Depot. We're stocking up, too. I won't let the govt tell me what to do! ;-) Glad to see you're still snapping and you did a great job capturing this shot you probably wouldn't thought of otherwise.
