My name is Aaron, and I am alive. Thanks to my father, he is the one that kept me alive through everything. There was more of us at one time...but that doesn't matter, he did what he could. Let me get back to my original point--My name is Aaron, I'm sixteen, I haven't been outside my house for seven months, uh...I've never had a girlfriend, I don't play video games, I don't have friends, I don't go to school, should I continue? Why you ask? Well...to put it lightly, the world went to hell. It literally did...people don't stay dead, and they have a hunger for anything living. My Father, when he heard the reports that the CDC had confirmed this new "virus", and that Homeland Security was moving the President out of country, he began planning what he had to do to protect us. At the time he worked for the city as a maintenance worker, he spent allot of time also repairing rails for the subway. That's where he told us where we were going. We spent three full months of construction building fences and traps to keep the undead out. My family and I never left the subway tunnels, my father only went out alone. He never talked about how bad it was. What he had to do. Then one day, while my mother, brother, and sister where doing work on fortifying the outside walls disaster struck. An undead attacked my mother and bit her, the virus almost instantly took her over--and she attacked my sister. My brother all ready bitten realized what he had to do, he looked at me and screamed "HIDE!" Then he slammed the gate shut and accepted his fate. I locked myself in a closet for what seemed to be days. Then my father shouted my name, he was weeping, I went to him. We've been together ever sense, he forbade me from ever leaving. But today I have to go out, he went missing and I have a feeling he's still alive. I have to find him--he's the only family I have left, besides my dog Cam.
This is my story, these are my trials.
My dad, who would be about 102, had a lot of lightmeters. I guess he had as much trouble with them as I do. Some of them are very confusing and give wrong answers. This photo is exposed according to the numbers on the lightmeter. So I guess it works pretty well even after 40 or 50 years.
I got this a while back, but I haven't gotten around to putting a new mirror in it.
It has a pretty low serial number, but has some features of later Pilot cameras. I'm wondering if maybe it was sent back to the factory for repairs or upgrades. It seems to me that it may have been converted from 6x4.5 format to 6x6. So far as I can tell all of the early Pilot 6 cameras shot the half frame 645 format, as 120 film hadn't yet received markings for 6x6 in 1936. Later Pilots are 6x6 format, and perhaps this was sent back for conversion?
Perhaps one of the most memorable in-water experiences of my life was this encounter with pilot whales and their "escort" oceanic whitetip sharks. The sharks were both bold and curious, constantly circling around and attempting to sneak up from behind. Even when I took notice and stared them down, they kept approaching and did not turn away until they were within a foot or two!
A pilot boat transports pilots between land and the inbound or outbound ships that they are piloting .
If a ship is coming into the port for the first time, the pilot will board the ship at the sea-buoy. The sea-buoy is the ‘official’ start to the river / sea . The river /sea pilot resides in the port of call . So the pilot boards the pilot boat, leaves the dock, and heads out to the sea buoy to meet the ship. Now if the ship is leaving the port, just reverse that process. The pilot will board the ship at the dock, take the ship out to the sea-buoy, and climb off the ship and board the ‘PILOT’ boat and take the boat back to the dock.
The pilot boat here is dropping the pilot on to the RYNDAM , to guide the cruise
ship into port -- COPENHAGEN ,
Our cabin was on this deck -- best place -- the promenade deck .
Finally getting stuff together for my USMC figs :D Now I'm just waiting on a few vests and rifles to come and I will have a couple Marines done as well.

Surprised to see a pilot's glory from the International Space Station This optical phenomenon is often visible from airplanes, or when on a volcano looking down into a foggy crater with the sun in the back. Our shadow is (theoretically) right in the middle of the rainbow, but we don't have a core shadow due to our altitude.
Wanderer über dem Nebelmeer. War erstaunt, diese Glorie zu sehen, ein optischer Effekt in den Wolken, den man vom Flugzeug aus oft beobachten kann. Unser Schatten ist (theoretisch) genau in der Mitte des Regenbogens, aber durch unsere 400 km Flughöhe haben wir keinen Kernschatten.

One of the more recognizable pilots from the clone wars, Warthog has very distinct tribal style markings on his helmet in a warthog design. Very cool fig. Thanks for looking.
The M1 Adaptive Tread Base Abrams was developed in 2078 the advanced computer systems and onboard AI reduced the required pilots to two. Only a few were built initially but when the robots declared war in 2081 they were mass produced as the army's main battle tank. Sadly since the humans lost the war it was the last version of the Abrams tank used in combat
Mass: 64 tons
Speed: 50 Mph (on treads)
Speed: 15 Mph (on legs)
Armament:
The tank is equipped with a 205mm main canon, a 14.6mm machine gun mounted to the side and a twin-fire missile pod mounted to the other.
NOTES:
I touched up the platting around the legs extending it on top of the treads and adding to the plating in between
I also moved the barrel ever so slightly into the center so I could design some better plating next to it to help it fit into the platting around it
lastly I added a trophy system to either side of the tank to add filler to the flat side as well as updating the machine gun with an actual M240 machine gun that I bought at the Brickfair I went to recently
As always questions and comments are always welcome and encouraged!!

Morning and dark, with clouds and even rain. But I drove closer to get such a shot.
If I could have made it nearer to Pilot Butte, I would have used the 90mm. It's a more pleasing lens, I think. But the 210mm at this distance made the formation seem closer than it was.
Or really, as close as it actually was. This is a fairly realistic vision of where I was.
Due to time I couldn't get closer.
