Next to the other Buick in Kensington Market, and parked in front of the appropriately named Flash Back, is a wonderful Buick Eight.
70 exposure handheld bokehrama... overkill on this one, again. I think I've been spoiled by my fisheye and forgot how to shoot a telephoto :)

Toulouse - from my bedroom
Depuis ma chambre, mon premier éclair numérique, mon premier fichier raw, grâce à l'appareil de mon coloc....
From my bedroom, my first digital flash of lighting, my first raw file, thanks to my roommate camera...
I've been wanting to capture a green flash for years. Green flashes are optical phenomena that sometimes occur right before sunset or right after sunrise. When the conditions are perfect, a green spot is visible above the upper rim of the sun as it hits the horizon. Due to the angle of light refraction through our atmosphere, the wavelengths of light get pulled down the electromagnetic spectrum from orange and red to green. The green appearance usually lasts for no more than two seconds. Next optical phenomenon on the bucket list: the Aurora Borealis.
UG Minifigures Red Death Flash has got it all!
Front printing, back printing, leg printing, underarm printing, a custom made headpiece, a chromed bat-symbol!
Then on top of all that, the design itself so well replicated that when you look at it, makes you hear Motörhead or Black Sabbath almost immediately :P
Dude! Holy cow! Talk about giving Christo a run for his money! :P
Now, to be fully honest, Christo still has a litttttle better quality custom molded parts, but as far as prints go, this fig takes the cake! I mean, this figure has a chrome print! How cool is that! What a neat idea to vacuum metalize this fig of all figs!
A Dark Knight Metal Death Flash ft. Vaccum Metalized prints! How good is that! :P
...I mean really though, if UG should be known for anything, it should be their chroming of their figs! Like, take a look at their Doctor Fate! :P
There are so many things to appreciate about this figure! The design is fantastic and the finest of details in the helmet mold are amazing! It's a super sleek and clean looking figure! FunnyBrick and UG are blowing my mind with this figure and I’m really glad to own one! :)
This has got to be one of my newest favorite figures I own, with out a doubt in my mind! :)

And now, words of a wise man that once commented on one of Roman's photos that one time because it was too good not to have written up here in this post about DK Metal! Plus it took a long time to write that comment anyway and yeah... idk, but here it is :P

Okay boys this is gonna get really complicated really quickly so hold on to your cowls!
To know who The Bat Who Laughs is, requires you to know about DC’s “alternate earths” concept.
So back in the 1940s there was only one earth, until Gardner Fox brought back the JSA in the 1960s. So then there was two earths, then three, then an infinite number of earths and then George Perez killed them all with a giant space alien robot. So because of that there was only one earth again, then there was Hypertime in the 90s which we don’t talk about, then there was a few of them again because Grant Morrison and Geoff Johns or something, then Barry Allen had a Flashpoint and there was 52 of them for what ever reason. Then after a few years, now we’re here in DC Rebirth (kinda) where it’s a little ambiguous how many earths there are right now.
So now take all of that info as if it was written on a piece of paper. One side of the paper is white; that represents all the stuff I just said. On the other side of that paper, it’s all black.
That “other side” of the multiverse is what Scott Snyder calls The Dark Multiverse #spooky
"OKAY SO THE DARK MULTIVERSE IS THIS PLACE OF INFINITE DARK EARTHS WHERE EVERY POSSIBLE THING THAT COULD GO BAD HAS GONE BAD. THE BAT WHO LAUGHS IS FROM ONE OF THESE EARTHS WHERE BATMAN WENT CRAZY AND TURNED INTO THE JOKER AND HAS LITTLE ROBIN GOBLINS FOR PETS. SO HE AND THIS DUDE BARBATOS HOOKS UP WITH A BUNCH OF OTHER DARK MULTIVERSE JUSTICE LEAGUE MEMBERS LIKE BATMAN FLASH AND BATMAN CYBORG AND BATMAN DOOMSDAY ALL BECAUSE BATMAN IS SO F-ING COOL AND MAKES US SO MUCH MONEY OMG" -- The DC Executives
Aaaand that's Dark Knights Metal in a nutshell (this took way to long to write and I left out A LOT of details like about Hawkman being an earth forger and all the stuff about n'th metals and junk about the source wall and shit, plus all the radical costume designs that sound like Death Metal when you look at them).
It's a cool story.
Also...comics are dumb and super complicated :P

Sylvania Press 25 flash bulb before flash, during flash and slightly after. The middle photo is slightly delayed after the flash and the last one shows some of the filament still burning inside.
Photographed with a Mamiya C3 TLR camera using a Mamiya-Sekor 1:2.8 80mm lens. The film is CatLABS X FILM 80 developed in Beerenol (Rainier Beer).
'Old it, flash, bang, wallop, what a picture
What a picture, what a photograph
Poor old soul, blimey, what a joke
Hat blown off in a cloud of smoke
Clap 'ands, stamp yer feet
Bangin' on the big bass drum
What a picture, what a picture
Um-tiddly-um-pum-um-pum-pum
Stick it in your fam'ly album
The Green Flash at Sunset, Green flashes and green are an optical phenomena that sometimes occurs just a micro second after sunset. We live on the beach in Oceanside California, and have seen many, but until Jan 22 last Tuesday night was unable get a good let alone great Green Flash with my camera. Some that have never seen it say it is a myth, or something people made up but it is true and it happens when conditions are just perfect like last tuesday after we had had a big storm and lots of wind cleared the sky clear to the oceans horizon, I hope you enjoy my capture.
In some cultures it is considered good luck to see one.
Shot with my Canon 50D.

Missy has been coming to the yard on her own the past couple of days ... this tells me that she is very close to giving birth .. this evening she came in late afternoon, had a snack and a nap and then another snack and then took off about an hour and a half ago ... a few minutes ago little Flash, Maggie and May came into the yard for a snack ... I'm sure Maggie is pregnant but unsure about May ... so nice that Flash has her sisters to hang around with while Missy gives birth to this years fawn(s) ... and life goes on ...
A worms eye view of my new found favourite trees :)
Taken last night at dusk, a 5 mins exposure with a bit of flash painting.
Thanks for having a look.
Every year the scorched desert looks to the monsoon rains to get them through another year. The first lightning flashes of the season are symbols of hope to animals and plants alike.
Strobist: two flashes, both bare and set off with Pocket Wizards. One is to the left and one to the front right of the saguaro.
I just got my first flash for Christmas and wanted to try freezing action. I know the picture is cliche but I was interested in learning how to use this new toy!
SB-700 camera right at 90 degrees to camera with a white reflector camera left.
Triggered with the on-camera flash on my D7000.
