From my last photojourney in Morocco, last January, in a small village on the ocean, there's an old fisherman who is checking his net. These are really poor people and the good conditions of their nets are very important to their lives. I hope you enjoy this scene.

We decided to head down to Nellis AFB near Las Vegas for the Red Flag 21-1 exercises once the wife heard there were going to be some B-1B and B-2 bombers there. Good choice. We were there for three days; the first day was horrible for photos - very gray drab sky but things were busy. These are some photos from the first day - not the best quality but we did have a good time. I took these photos at the beginning of February 2021.

Red Flag provides combat training in a degraded and operationally limited environment making the training missions as realistic as possible. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Thomas Spangler)
This Halloween my original characters from this picture are coming back! :D This is also an old idea (though not as old as the picture I mentioned), which became less relevant for me while I was waiting for the free time to build it, but I decided I should build and post it anyway, because I felt it was relevant before just recently, and also because I still think it was a good idea as a picture/storytelling.
Yeah, the paintings on the walls are clearly based on something some of the viewers might recognize (I specifically used the same suit for it), because it's trending like right now, but if I name the source of inspiration it will give in a huge key to the plot... and I have reasons to let it be more vague, up to viewer's interpretation. :) Especially because the plot was based not just on that, but on something else which had a different meaning, so there can be a totally different reading of it. ;)
I usually post my pictures for Halloween on the day, but I'm not sure I will be able to do it this Thuesday, so I decided it's better to post it on Sunday, just in case. :)
Happy Halloween! :D
