Fire in the sky as a storm moves in from the north. I took the wife out to the desert to get a few shots of what I was hoping would be a decent sunset. She's not one for adventurous off-road excursions but she hung in there. We left after dark and by the time we made it to the highway there was so much mud on the car that it didn't appear the headlights were on, but they were. I decided to take the kids back the following evening and much to my surprise the area was inaccessible as it was still completely flooded from the prior nights storm. So glad the wife and I got out before it started pouring.

From this point of view, it looks like the Super 8 hotel is abandoned but it's not. I shot this photo from a parking lot where a evening A&W drive in car show was going on and I saw the tall Super 8 sign and the all the vegetation just kind of had that abandoned feel to it. There was an approaching storm too which made the clouds look super ominous.
Thirty-eight. That's the number of people killed by Mick during the explosions. Thirty-eight people I could've saved.
My whole life, I've been taught to use my powers for good. And I've tried. Really, I have. This whole "be the Flash" thing has been a blessing since day one, but I feel like I haven't lived up to his legacy. How can I be the hero everyone needs if I can't run fast enough to help everyone? Sure, I managed to get a lot of people out, but thirty-eight died. Fifty are hospitalized, including Victor. He was caught under debris and suffered major injuries and third-degree burns. All this is my fault. I messed up Snart's plans, so he sent his little lapdog to try and get at me.
I hear a door open, and look to see Cisco walk in. He smiles.
"Y'know, I heard that depression can always be cured by food," he says, and takes a chocolate bar out of his jacket pocket. It's gestured to me, but I ignore it. This causes a frown.
"Hey, I know how you feel. This one time, I developed a pair of gloves that could emit seismic waves. For a high school project, which was great because not too many-never mind. Anyways, when I went to demonstrate them, they went haywire and caused a giant hole to open up under out feet. No one sustained any fatal injuries, but I felt so bad. These were my inventions, so I told myself it was my fault. Turns out, my brother had spilt orange juice on them while he was looking at them. The point is, things happen out of our control. We may not like it, but that's life. Don't let yourself get down like that. When life throws you a curveball, just look up and try to catch it."
I smile, which causes him to grin. I'm about to say thanks, when his phone goes off. He takes it out and looks. A look of fear instantly covers his face. I look at the screen and there's a video of a man in a hooded jacket with a black mask covering his face. Over that was a pair of blue goggles. Snart. He spoke.
"I'd like to say something to the lovely hero that tried to stop my plans. My Rogues and I are waiting in Infantino Park. Be here by 11 p.m., or else this city will die."
Cisco looks at me and says, "You need to stop them."
I nod and get ready to leave, but before that I ask him one question:
"How would you like to design a superhero costume?" His face brightens up.
"M'lady, it would be my pleasure."

Today, my wife and I took a drive to beautiful Culzean Country Park with Lewis - and his scooter! It was a beautiful day, 9.5C degrees and we had a great time.

Week 8
I've always wanted to create this kind of backdrop and I finally had an idea in my head where the background would actually enhance the image so I went forward with it. I went through about three cans of spray adhesive but thats alright. I started school again so I am slightly nervous about balancing school with working and then on top of that still being able to find time to do what I've really been enjoying lately which is creating these photographs. Honestly, I would rather take one less class and create a picture a week than the opposite. I did a fair amount of post work with this shot. It took about an hour and a half in total to shoot everything because its pretty hard to get paper to fall in the exact location you want it to when you are using a self timer. A trigger would be a great investment! Regardless, the flying paper location took quite a while to get right and then I started getting so picky about where the red book needed to be so I kept having to reshoot that. But, the import part is when I finally got it completely done I knew I was happy.
Also, I don't know if anyone pixel peeks but the book has a special title on it.
Almost done, promise. I started building either week nine or ten's backdrop before I even started with this one. Basically I'm replicating the front and right side of a run down house/shack to the best of my ability and then burning it for a photoshoot. Its about fourteen feet tall. I just need to put the roof on and then it should be good to go. It's nice to have friends that live in the middle of nowhere. Hopefully it turns out as well as I imagine.
