Mean ones, scary ones, dirty great big hairy ones, Goblins.
Big ones, weenie ones, kind of inbetweenie ones, Goblins.
The TK-110 Goblin is a tool used for surgical strikes by the Commonwealth planetary ground forces. Mostly for taking out strategical targets in the battlefield.
Its menacing looks and incredibly durable armor also makes it efficient for crowd control in colonies plagued by civil unrest.
It is capable of autonomous operation but is usually maneuvered by single pilot with a neurological interface. The pilot can "feel" hits and targeting lasers on the tank's hull and can almost immediately take evasive actions. The TK-110 is equipped with two dual high yield cesium-bismuth-germanite laser cannons that can fire both pulse and phase beams. A pulse beam is mostly sufficient to take out any target, and the phase beam is only used sparsely because it quickly drains the battery.

In december last year I ordered some dark green parts and among them some dino bodies because I had an idea how to use them. When I got them I started trying out other ideas and ended up with this mech design. I might return to my original idea at some other time. I know it isn't March yet, but I had to post it for a contest. Hope you like it!
No shortage of rock goblins in Utah, that's for sure, here's another from Goblin Valley. I'm really liking these small led light balls for foreground lighting, they provide a nice low level/subtle amount of light which accents the rocks nicely. Plus they are super easy to pack, weigh nothing, and last a really really long time. People (including me) are always exploring fancy ways to light foregrounds with various panels, lume cubes, strobes, etc. Sometimes it's the simple random $5 amazon purchase that makes the biggest impact.
8 exposures went into this image, 4 for the sky, 4 for the foreground, all shot with my Nikon Z7 and Sigma Art 40mm on a Sky Watcher Star Adventurer mini. All exposures are 90 seconds at f1.8 and ISO 800.

Do those look like eyes to you as well?
So my previous image of Goblin Valley has been chosen as a group cover photo. I can't see it though because the group is private! I don't remember who invited me to add the picture to the group. The group name is Best Flickr Group Ever!!! Anyone know what to do?

One of the scariest characters from my youth....The Green Goblin from Marvel fame. Even as a grown up, the sight of my son's toy brings back the fear! Some people don't like clowns, for me it's this guy. HMM!
I used the Spidey and his Amazing Friends Hulk to make three different Green Goblins. Done. Next question.
It's not often that you find yourself in skies as dark as in Goblin Valley, Utah. But when you do, you try and take a big panorama, from the top of a big hill, saying a lot of bad words while hauling stuff up there. It also helps to have the world's most patient boyfriend, who not only helps haul me up said big hill, talks me down after various star-related meltdowns, and who waits while I take an age to finish taking photos, but who also sits and chills with me under the stars on nights like this 😘

Goblin Valley State Park is a state park of Utah, USA.
Its eminent feature is its thousands of hoodoos and hoodoo rocks, referred to locally as "goblins", which are formations of mushroom-shaped rock pinnacles, some as high as several meters. The distinct shapes of these rocks come from an erosion-resistant layer of rock atop softer sandstone. Along with Bryce Canyon National Park some 190 miles to the southwest, Goblin Valley State Park is one location with some of the highest occurrences of hoodoos in the world.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Goblin Valley, Emery County, Utah. The valley contains thousands of hoodoos and hoodoo rocks, referred to locally as "goblins." The goblins themselves are formations of mushroom-shaped rock pinnacles, some as high as several meters. The distinct shapes of these rocks come from an erosion-resistant layer of rock atop softer sandstone. The two people standing bottom left give an idea as to the scale of the goblins.
in the late 1920s, Arthur Chaffin, later owner/operator of the Hite Ferry, and two companions, were searching for an alternate route between Green River and Caineville. They came to a vantage point about 1 mile (1.6 km) west of Goblin Valley and were awed by what they saw – five buttes and a valley of strange, goblin-shaped rock formations surrounded by a wall of eroded cliffs. In 1949, Chaffin returned to the area he called Mushroom Valley. He spent several days exploring the mysterious valley and photographing its scores of intricately eroded rocks.
Goblin Guy. My first model of the new year! (And possibly one of the only models of the new year at the rate I've been going!)
A particularly cool location somewhere in Goblin Valley. EAK originally 'discovered' it on a previous visit. This time, he led the rest of us to his discovery, and promptly changed the name from 'Cave of Wonders', his original name for the cave, to 'Goblin's Outpost'.

This is what goblins look like before they are revealed. A great artist once declared about his sculpture, that he was not creating anything, he was simply removing the rock that covered up his piece of work. So it is in Goblin Valley, the Master Craftsman starts with colorful large blocks of sandstone, and simply, carefully reveals the shapely pillars inside the blocks.
Some crazy colors from airglow (and unfortunately some from chromatic aberration!) Make this panorama of Goblin Valley about as other-worldly as it was taking the photo!
