It is the youth who must inherit the tribulation, the sorrow... that are the aftermath of war.
~Herbert Hoover
Scott made it through his Lumina Photographic photo session with the triplets and spent his Tuesday processing the shoot. He's shown me the results and I think Mom and Dad will be very happy with the photos.
I was sort of a zombie on Tuesday so I snapped a couple quick shots of him at work and called it a day for photography.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

THE LAST OF US. PART I • Otis_Inf's Camera tools | Reshade 5 | Resolution Scale
Feel free to visit my VOLUME ONE account.
Legend has it that after one of the vast battles of old, the sole surviving warrior crafted from deceased soldiers of every fallen army a creature in appearance not unlike us. But it could not reason or think for itself...some say they have seen it wandering in the vast empty places of the world, collecting energy sources to power its endless existence...
Another quick build thrown together in an hour or two, refined a bit, and here to appease upload addiction. :D
This one was built around the idea of editing eye sockets into those depressions on the back of the spider carapace and the concept of a junkbot built from the remains from dead soldiers. Hope you all enjoy a foretaste of a foray into Bionicle. :)
This was taken last week, after taking the shot of Brent that has ended up being so popular, as seen here. Brent was off running about fetching the car so we could load up the red sofa and move it to another location. (This ended up being the pier in Seatoun as can be seen here.)
I confess that essentially as Brent and myself went out shooting last weekend, we were really just playing about and having a laugh, not actually going out to try and shoot something really specific. If I'd gone out with any single shot in mind that I wanted to get, this was probably it. In my mind I'd visualised it slightly different, but it's a similar sort of feel I was after.
There was something about a baron and empty space that played off against a bold and brash in-your-face clash of colours to me, and although in my head the image had been composed differently, it's that kinda conflict I wanted to try and go at least some way to achieving.
Notes for those bothered:
* The sofa is still in the entrance to my place, all aired out and with a bit of sand still attached to the bottom. :-)
* I got asked and almost accused after the last shot numerous times of being a Photoshop whore, so for reference, this shot is largely unedited. I'm not a PS fan, I believe you ought to take the shot right in the first place and edit it to add the final sheen. This has had some burning in to give a vignette effect, basic levels tweak and desaturation on the colours except for cyan. And a bit of noise added. ;-)
If you want art in your apartment, gather your friends, drink, and paint. It won't matter whether or not you end up with masterpieces, each canvas will have it's own story.
Pentax ME Super 50mm f/1.4
You gotta see all 5 photos (in order) for it to make sense.
Maxwell's Restaurant in Minneapolis, MN.
I have been looking for a photo like this for a while, a building that was on fire and the water from fire fighting frozen all over it. It's sad though about any business or home that goes through the fire.
As I stumbled into the kitchen, the aftermath of Pokerpalooza stared back at me with wild eyes, a grotesque display of debauchery. The sink overflowed with a mountain of greasy plates, resembling a decadent feast devoured by insatiable beasts. Piles of crumpled napkins, smeared with remnants of buffalo wings and cocktail sauce, littered the countertops like casualties of a reckless culinary warfare. The air reeked of stale beer and the lingering scent of cigar smoke, an olfactory assault on my senses. In this unholy mess of dishes, I could almost hear the echo of the raucous laughter and clinking poker chips, a haunting reminder of the frenzied revelry that had unfolded just hours before. It was a chaotic symphony of excess, a testament to the madness that ensues when the chips are down and the stakes are high.
