On Wednesday, May 15, at Congressional offices in home districts across the country and on Capitol Hill, more than 175 House and Senate members were visited and delivered letters urging support for the Inclusive Prosperity Act, H.R. 1579, inspired by the Robin Hood Tax and reintroduced in Congress last month by Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN), and other legislation to bring a real and enduring recovery to the entire nation.
Still working to try and achieve what "I" think is the perfect beach ball drop. Almost there but not quite.
This is looking inside the mask, where I have built in a half face mask so that it fits the performer's face snuggly. I use a cheap bought plastic mask, cover it with masking tape and then muslin and PVA glue, This strengthens it and gives it a comfy feel. With these masks I added a wide elastic to go around the performer's head inside as well, but its not shown here. Neither is the black gauze put over the eye holes so that people don't see the eyes.
This series consists of three photos: Drop Erection, Drop Climax and Drop Implotion (this one).
This picture shows the end of what happens when a drop hits a still water surface: When the water flows back into the impact crater. It's almost impossible to see with the naked eye, but very beautiful when frozen in time like this.
Not as dramatic as the two others in the series, I still think this is the most beautiful.
One of the original drop-offs on the lower section of Lion Tamer.
I was riding and shooting alone, so the camera was triggered by a remote taped to my handlebars.. a sound theory, but it turns out that jumping and pushing a button is like rubbbing your tummy and patting your head!

This is my setup for shooting the water drop pictures.
All of this is in my computer/spare/junk room! As you can see, most of my equipment is DIY! The flashes all came from eBay,

"Air Mail Special-Jubilant Marines gather parapacks of mail dropped by a transport plane for Leatherneck troops on the American-held portion of Iwo Jima. Large quantities of blood plasma necessitated by the high casualty rate, was delivered in a similar "raid"."

I feel like this looks a bit like the hand of God at work creating, dropping stars and planets into place. It didn't quite come out like I was expecting/hoping and couldn't be bothered figuring out how to get it as I wanted!
Definitely best viewed large on black
