I have a lot of hobbies...most I only dabble in and don't really have any "serious" ones.
Reptiles would be the first. Right now I only have four herps...I hope to expand my collection, but right now I'm really poor, moving into a manhattan apartment, and going to school full time in few months, so it'll have to wait, probably until we get a house where I can have a room or closet or basement all for the animals.
Sapphira, my approx. 1 year old Antilles Pink-Toe
Adonis, 1.5 year old female Amel Corn.
I've also got Aidan, an almost three year old Bearded, and another corn snake.
Cooking/baking. I cook a lot...do dinner parties and brunches and stuff. It's expensive to buy a lot of food, though, even just to cook for the family. Here's what I made at Thanksgiving...most of those dishes I did. It was my first turkey!
I'm a filmmaking major, so it's not really a hobby, but I guess I have a lot of "correlating" hobbies, like cinematography and costume design that aren't my major which I dabble in. These were just Halloween costumes. Collaboration between me and one of my friends. Designed, sewed/made, accessorized, and did makeup ourselves for all these costumes.
Fishing. I don't even have my own rod or anything, but I go a handful of times every summer with friends and usually catch some small stuff. This was the biggest one "I" ever caught...It was caught on a pole just hanging off a dock. (those are the friends i caught it with) We cooked him and the little guys we caught up nice. This is the fish I learned to clean and cut on.
NASTY picture of the fish guts after I helped gut it.
This goes along with cooking, too. Those fish are covered in flavors.
In the summer, I'm at the beach almost every day...so I guess it's a hobby. We swim, play frisbee or volleyball, collect shells, build castles, etc. Here's a starfish I found on my first "date" (it wasn't supposed to be a date, but it kind of turned out to be) with Zach. My mom told me it was good luck. I don't usually believe in luck, but I had the best summer of my life after that, and found it along with the man I'm going to marry.
Adventures. Dunno if it counts as a hobby...we kind of do Urban Exploring, but not really. We go to supposedly haunted places and spend hours looking at maps and online and in books trying to find cool, obscure places. Whether it's an abandoned military site or just a cool, unknown local restaurant, we call it "adventuring". This is a shot from Camp Hero (remember the "Montauk Monster"? This is where it came from. If you look it up, there's some pretty cool stories about it. I think they're mostly rumors.
I might put more *guilty*

I love your wedding dolls Debi! I can attest to the quality and detail you put into your pieces. I will photograph the ones you have sent Hyia seperately and send them to you but you must promise never to delete!!!!! They are your children and you should keep an album.
Milo's Mommy WOW. I love the costumes especially the blue guy with the sythe. Your thanksgiving table is scrumptious and that is a monster of a fish. looks tasty!! You should put a warning on your spidey pic tho, i can see more then one person here being quite startled! THe starfish story is just awesome. Guess your mama was right.
Zoom i don't think drinking counts you goof.:rofl1:

my most favorite hobby is cruising flea markets, etc., for furniture items to refinish. I was looking for pics, but must have deleted them also. lol I did find 'Marge and her Kitty' in a random 'house' album, but that's truly all the doll pics I have left.
smkie, no need to send me pics!!! I have so many albums, that deleting doll pics was a GOOD thing. thanks so much anyway!!!
I live to garden!!!!

Hobbies
Well I have a hard time sticking with just one hobby. So I guess my hobby is collecting hobbies.
Currently my hobby is converting a 77 Triumph Spitfire 1500 to an all electric car.
The red one is the first car I was working on, but it has some major frame rot so it is getting parted out. The car in the back that needs paint is the main car at the moment. When it is finished it will be a fully battery powered two seat convertible.
My other hobby is photoshopping. I used to regularly participate in several online photoshop contests but had to cut back when I changed jobs a few years ago. Still love to do it when I get the chance though!
This was a quick one from the Ella's lead contest.

My hobbies...hmmm.
Well I play piano, I also love to go shooting, taking my kids out places, and I love gardening. I do my best to have the nicest lawn on the block. I'm also a closet pyromaniac I think, because I"m enamoured by fire and lighting BBQ grills/campfires. Drinking should also count as a hobby, I'm with Zoom on that one.
I love to go fishing (hate camping with a passion) and I have 2 horses in Arizona that I used to ride a lot but one is getting up there in age (he's 22) and the other is good for light riding since he has a damaged foot.

i've run bear, boar, cat, coon, deer, fox, opossum, rabbit, & raccoon. Sonic my saluki/grey mix has caught boar, cat, coon, deer (well 1), fox, opossum, rabbit & raccoon. in july i hope to start him on coyote. i carry a knife for bigger stuff but Sonic does most of the killing (& eats most of what he kills after i skin it & cut it up).
Well, I'm into cars and photography, especially taking photograps of cars
I love landscapes and outdoor shots, I'm not really into people or studio work, so here's some examples.
