Another shot of stuff glued to a gelatin filled Christmas bulb.
I think that there is some sort of rule that if one skull is scary, seven are even more scary.
These are little taiga nut skulls from an old Burning Man project. I used to make up little copper wire and skull Burning Man skeletons on necklaces to give to people I met out on the playa.
I made up three more of these after the first two so that I could get a few more tries. This is a more controlled shot, less delay than the first shot.
Sometimes I wonder if I should allow a little more chance in these high speed pictures. Not aim as accurately, mess with delay more.
Another day maybe.
Cheers.
A few weeks ago at a garage sale I found one of those silly mini-animals that you put into water and let swell up to a billion times larger.
This one was a crab. It went from about 3 inches to about a foot.
It was too large to shoot as a whole critter, so I cut off the legs and tried a few shots.
This is a claw. One of these days I am going to have to figure out why red is such a problem in Lightroom.
I always seem to spend the most time trying to develop pictures with a lot of red in them.
Cheers.
I also saw some rhubarb at the Whole Foods store. Celery didn't work too well, too mono-colored. But I had hopes for rhubarb.
I think it looks great. Nice color, good contrast.
Cheers.
My love for Venice is immeasurable.

Tom Klausler in his Lola T460. As fast as anybody in an Atlantic car, he was also a fine engine builder. One weekend his primary engine pitched so he built another one in his trailer on Saturday night. He finished second to Gilles Villeneuve the next day.
Avix TS3, my entry into the Speeder Bike Racing League Contest, in the Vastland Cross. It's not perfect for any category, but it fits best here.
The TS3 is a top-of-the-line race bike built by Avix, Inc. It includes two seating options, the standard bike ride (doesn't actually work in LEGO, just backstory) and a TRON-style stomach-laying position more comfortable for long rides. Propulsion comes in the form of two Aercorp J5CL7-B turbojets. It is armed with one Blasto B-223 light repeating blaster under the aeroblade at the nose of the vehicle and the pilot, Baz Jyell, carries a Blasto N-12 personal protection pistol in the same color scheme as the bike. He has customized the windshield, replacing it with a DARx Techpad 7 from a police bike for vital information on the bike' performance. He also wears cybergoggles to access his social media at all times and a DARx Techviz 2 visor for other information.
The TS3 has three main storage compartments in the rear, two of which are visible in this photo, in which the pilot stores his gun, food supplies, inflatable tent, and other supplies. He wears slightly less comfortable but so much more convenient self-washing clothes so he has more time in the mornings to get Racing earlier. He charges the bike's batteries with a telescopic geothermal spike. This also siphons chemicals from beneath the ground to react to make the bike's primary fuel, deuterium hydrazide.
I hope this should be enough to explain any potential challenges in crossing a wasteland, but if there are any questions I'll be happy to answer them. Thank you for your consideration!
Great competitors all. These guys just never stopped pouring it on. They gave the spectators a fantastic show.

Usain Bolt prepares to pass the baton to Asafa Powell, who will run the anchor leg of Jamaica's world-record beating 4x100m Men's Relay.
The Jamaicans were so fast it's amazing they were able to do the changeovers properly - I felt sorry for the second leg runner who had to pass the baton to Bolt before he accelerated rapidly into the distance. Usual medal favourites USA and Great Britain weren't in the final after completely messing up their changeovers in the heats.
A glass vial filled with cake sprinkles.
I always strive for color. I can't imagine the world in black and white.
Cheers.
A trio of speeders that I have made over the last few years. I thought that they looked good together so took a few pictures.

I had some leftover water absorbing gel spears left from a few weeks ago, so I tried them with some of the super-light super fast pellets.
Short bike ride today because of those darn Santa Anna winds. Bleeh.

Yes, this was taken with an actual Polaroid camera ... and film that expired in 2004.
Some planets are not suitable for EM technology so hover tanks and EM stabilizers based aircrafts like KUNAIs are useless. So, old good wheels, wings, and reactors are still pretty common. The lance was once a CYGNUS Corp. prototype for land speeders but it suddenly disappeared. It reappeared a few months later a few parsecs away, attacking a rescue mission under Blacktron colours...
Blacktrons use LANCEs to be first on interesting sites. These vehicles carrie two automatic gatlings turrets and a laser boosted 90mm cannon.

Going back to an earlier shot to try to get it better.
Brighter yes...better...hmm...maybe.
Also, appears this was an afternoon for red, which is fine.

Transmitted and reflected light.
Bulb drilled open with Dremel and diamond bit.
Filled with good old di-hydrogen oxide. And hit with a pellet.
After correcting for white balance, these sepia tones resulted.
Cheers.
Having swiftly dealt with the steep gradients outside Moe, R761 and R707 push hard through the coal-rich region of Morwell.
Born to race cars, Speed Racer (Emile Hirsch) is aggressive, instinctive and, most of all, fearless. His only real competition is the memory of the brother he idolized—the legendary Rex Racer, whose death in a race has left behind a legacy that Speed is driven to fulfill. Speed is loyal to the family racing business, led by his father, Pops Racer (John Goodman), the designer of Speed’s thundering Mach 5. When Speed turns down a lucrative and tempting offer from Royalton Industries, he not only infuriates the company’s maniacal owner (Roger Allam) but uncovers a terrible secret—some of the biggest races are being fixed by a handful of ruthless moguls who manipulate the top drivers to boost profits. If Speed won’t drive for Royalton, Royalton will see to it that the Mach 5 never crosses another finish line. The only way for Speed to save his family’s business and the sport he loves is to beat Royalton at his own game. With the support of his family and his loyal girlfriend, Trixie (Christina Ricci), Speed teams with his one-time rival—the mysterious Racer X (Matthew Fox)—to win the race that had taken his brother’s life: the death-defying, cross-country rally known as The Crucible.
