Introducing the 'Ghost' Superbanshee II AI controlled fighter variant.
The cockpit module, normally containing a human pilot, is replaced by a computer module. The sensors give it a nearly complete situational awareness. Typically networked with two other Ghosts, they are released in packs of 3, going from enemy to enemy. Standard tactic sees one Ghost attacking head on, one flanking and one covering the other two.
The flight-envelope restrictions are no longer needed, giving the AI full access to the maneuvering capabilities, including faster atmospheric entry. A sensor absorbing coating makes this fighter difficult to spot until 3 of them are doing everything they can to kill you.
AI vs AI battles
Battles being fought between AI fighters are usually won by the side with the most advanced AI. A fine line is walked between pushing AI capability and risking self awareness. There have been numerous instances where during an attack a Ghost entered the first stages of self awareness and began to show erratic behavior. Other Ghosts loose valuable calculating time figuring out what the faulty Ghost is doing, giving the whole pack a great disadvantage. Recapturing a self aware AI has proven to be nigh impossible.

Ralph Waldo Emerson. The happiest man is he who learns from nature the lesson of worship.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca: On entering a temple we assume all signs of reverence. How much more reverent then should we be before the heavenly bodies, the stars, the very nature of God!
John Muir: All the wild world is beautiful, and it matters but little where we go, to highlands or lowlands, woods or plains, on the sea or land or down among the crystals of waves or high in a balloon in the sky; through all the climates, hot or cold, storms and calms, everywhere and always we are in God's eternal beauty and love. So universally true is this, the spot where we chance to be always seems the best.

Here's a long exposure from last weekend at the 40 Foot in Dublin (made famous in James Joyce's Ulysses).
A cold drizzly dawn shot with some hardy swimmers braving the 9C water temperature and 4C air temperature. The other OffShoot photographers and I lasted only slightly longer than the swimmers.
The 40 Foot used to be a men-only nude bathing area until 1989:
"Traditionally the sanctuary of male nude bathers, the Forty Foot saw women show out to protest at their exclusion from the bathing zone. On 17 July 1989 a group of women joined the men in nude bathing at the forty foot in Sandycove, Dublin with over a thousand people turning out to witness this 'feminist challenge'.
The women were protesting against male chauvinism and their exclusion from using the forty foot as a bathing place for women. It had been expected that up to 300 women might show up to protest but on the day there were less than five.
Liam O’Leary of the Sandycove Bathers Association feels that:
'if women want to swim in the nude, they should find their own place.'
This was by no means the first protest at the Forty Foot. Women have been protesting about the inequality at the Forty Foot since the seventies. A similar protest took place in July 1974 when women took to the Forty Foot with protest placards."

Bodie, CA. June 2015
.
I had some good and scary times in this little town named Bodie.
Pleasant walks in its desert streets made of dust.
Quiet moment feeling the warm air from the meadows around.
I really love this place. I mean really. But also, I have some mixed feelings about this place.
I shivered too in the streets of this nowhere town, thinking about the death blow that haunts this place... Or I'd rather say, The madness who crawls like a disease through the building of this old city.
From one day to another they came and they left for one thing gold...
Fools gold..
So many different names for it today...
But a same effect.
The one that turns masses into blind sheeps, the one that beats down the need for the celebration of the vain want.
They didn't know what they want but they knew how to get it.
Windows like mirrors...
But you don't see who you are.
Windows like screen..
BUt you won't see the truth.
Just ghosts on the both side of the same world...
Poor Bodie, Even your Curse sounds too material...
When you don't believe in Gold.
Anyway I love you Bodie...
Holga Lens - 60mm - f/8
- www.kevin-palmer.com - At first I was fascinated by this moose, but then I was sad when I realized it was not healthy. It's afflicted with a large number of blood-sucking ticks. The constant scratching removes fur, and it becomes a "ghost moose." Warmer winters lead to an increase in ticks and young moose often do not survive.
There are a number of 'ghost villages' in Hong Kong, mostly in the northern New Territories. Most are just ruins and rubble at the time of uploading these images, but in the late 1990s many were still more or less intact and viewed from a distance looked like inhabited villages. So it was only when I actually approached this village on a hiking trail north of Cloudy Hill that I realised it was abandoned. The (ghost) story associated with this photo can be found at:

Kolmanskop , Namibia
Kolmanskop (Afrikaans for Coleman's head, German: Kolmannskuppe) is a ghost town in the Namib in southern Namibia, 10 kilometres inland from the port town of Lüderitz. It was named after a transport driver named Johnny Coleman who, during a sand storm, abandoned his ox wagon on a small incline opposite the settlement.[1] Once a small but very rich mining village, it is now a tourist destination run by the joint firm Namibia-De Beers.
In 1908, the worker Zacharias Lewala found a diamond while working in this area and showed it to his supervisor, the German railway inspector August Stauch. Realizing the area was rich in diamonds, German miners began settlement, and soon after the German Empire declared a large area as a "Sperrgebiet", starting to exploit the diamond field.[2]
Driven by the enormous wealth of the first diamond miners, the residents built the village in the architectural style of a German town, with amenities and institutions including a hospital, ballroom, power station, school, skittle-alley, theatre and sport-hall, casino, ice factory and the first x-ray-station in the southern hemisphere, as well as the first tram in Africa. It had a railway link to Lüderitz.
The town started to decline after World War II when the diamond-field slowly started to deplete. By the early 50s, the area was in decline. Hastening the town’s demise was the discovery in 1928 of the richest diamond-bearing deposits ever known, on the beach terraces 270 km south of Kolmanskop, near the Orange River. Many of the town’s inhabitants joined the rush to the south, leaving their homes and possessions behind. The new diamond find merely required scouting the beaches as opposed to more difficult mining. The town was ultimately abandoned in 1956. The geological forces of the desert mean that tourists now walk through houses knee-deep in sand. Kolmanskop is popular with photographers for its settings of the desert sands' reclaiming this once-thriving town, and the arid climate preserving the traditional Edwardian architecture in the area. Due to its location within the restricted area (Sperrgebiet) of the Namib desert, tourists need a permit to enter the town. Thx to Wikipedia
A pair of ghost characters created for the Happy Halloween poster! Although they don't seem like it, they are a couple of quite tame and at times very friendly and lovable ghosts! Another strange thing about them is that unlike other translucent apparitions, they seem quite 'meaty' and heavy and are not see-through at all! Nonetheless, they can go through walls, but only when they really need to, as it is a bit of an uncomfortable thing for them due to all the exposed nerve-endings. Which is why, when they choose a house to haunt, they usually ring the bell or knock, unless of course you leave an open door and a window!
Check out the poster and all the monsters here: www.behance.net/gallery/28283609/Happy-Halloween
Thanks for visiting :-)!

There are few times I enjoy shooting more than when there is good, moody fog. It transforms familiar scenes into something, well, very different. This familiar railroad crossing becomes the place where the ghosts are passing by...oooooooohhh...:)
