I think my speed light was annoying her. Found in the Diebskarrenbach pond system along K1055 a.k.a. "Frog Road" between Böblingen and Vaihingen. If you have been along this small stretch of road at night, the speed limit is 30km (school zone speed for those back in the states (20mph) due to the volume of frogs on the road in the spring time. Image taken at a distance of about 15cm using a Canon 500D close up lens on the front of a Nikkor 28-300mm zoomed out to 300mm with my D800 in DX Crop mode.
Maybe I am just seeing things. Maybe I watch too many Star Wars movies - I had just watched all of the old Star Wars collection before coming on this trip.
All I could see here was Jabba the Hutt.
Taken from my usual position on the deck of our cabin, on the edge of the Murray River in Mannum on a wonderfully stormy afternoon.
Little known fact: Jabba the Hutt was unhappy with the condition of his prized possession – Han Solo in carbonite – and ordered bounty hunters Boba Fett, Bossk and IG-88 to make some repairs. You could call it a galactic recall, if you will.
This was photographed exclusively for my "Small Scenes from a Big Galaxy" book. I will post more of these here shortly.
Something just happened. Negotiations with Jabba the Hutt turned out to be a disaster! Jabba has released a B’omarr Monk (cyborg), and it’s just about to attack on Boussh and Chewie. Is Boussh about to fall over with a thermal detonator in his hand? Little they see in this darkness, as Gamorrean is coming from the opposite direction with a axe in his hand! And Salacious Crumb is about to start laughing to all this… ouch, i say.
This is an outtake from the session Rescue of Han Solo. It’s taken right after I did the main scene. Back then, this was meant to be a next photo in the series, but I’ve pretty much put the rejected stamp on it. It’s a bit unfinished piece, but for some reason today, I’ve found it a very interesting one. It does have this film-a-like-feel, which is my weak spot. What I do like on this one also, is in fact the wideness of the scene, it maximizes the view. Even tho, this is a scene is over two years old, I think it fits the theme very well!
If you look carefully you’ll notice 2 characters that are not there, I can’t part with approximately £1000+ for Yak Face and Barada.
In a toy box near me, darkness is everyday. So, when I open the cover and light goes in, everyone's screaming "pick me, pick me, pick me". But all I hear is Jabba's laugh, when I'm closing the box.
This time I did Jabba the Hutt a little trick and snapped a photo of him, instead of these cry babies.
This figure is a must have, it truly looks like he leapt out of the screen.
And he comes with 3 different weapons!
Enough to arm my accessory-less vintage Gammorean Guards and make him their awesome squad leader.
His shoulder armor somewhat inhibits the range of motion at his shoulders. His hip articulation also suffers from a poor range of motion - this badboy will never be able to do the can-can dance, dashing is dreams of ever being a Radio City Music Hall Rockette.
Aside from these minor points of nitpickery - HOLY CRAP, he's awesome!
And he has fuzzy pants!
And in case you're wondering he IS wearing some Gammorean Underoos under all that fur otherwise he'd be unbearably itchy in a sensitive spot of his anatomy.
I was quite happy with my original Jabba the Nerd
... but then...
decided to take the competition to a whole different level... so, here is the pro version.

I'm still at Jabba's Palace. My camera has taken pictures of different situations in the past three days. I have witnessed many unusual oddities here. It seems that Han Solo is carbonized again. How many times this has been, I do not know. Boushh is negotiating with Bib, but but for some reason Bib's face alone will tell you that the negotiations is not doing very well. And Jabba is totally out of this world, either concentrating for a drinks and food or just about to take a nap. However, Chewbacca carries a secret weapon, the frying pan! Perhaps he intends to offer to cook a fried frogs for Jabba, so that he would release Han finally!
I hope I can one day dare to show the rejected scenes from this photo session. In fact, there are quite a few of them and some are just trash stuff, but I try to keep them in a safe place and upload them here when I cannot think anything else to upload. This, however, pleased me most of all and shall be here now.
I'm still at Jabba's Palace. It seems that Han Solo is carbonized again (how many times he can survive from it is a question I would like to know answer someday). Boushh is still negotiating with Bib and Jabba, but but for some reason Bib's face alone tell you that the negotiations is not doing very well. However, Chewbacca carries a secret weapon, a frying pan! Perhaps he intends to offer to cook a fried frogs for Jabba, so that he would release Han finally for freedom.
This is an oldie from my stream. I just started to play another day with this scene and it started to look interesting again. I find it very interesting to look back and compare this one to the first version I did over a year ago.

You may have not seen this before. Jabba pulled out and Boushh came out of hiding to rescue Han Solo. At dusk she did not, however, encountered a large hole in the floor, which we all know as a front door to the Rancor. Fortunately, it was only a small slip and Boushh had a very good opportunity to climb back to the game. Chewbacca were on standby around the corner and it is in this picture, which I captured, he will draw nigh to help Princesses. But who is there behind her back laughing ass off for all this? Salacious B. Crumb! His shrill laugh not seem to end ever. I can hear it even today.
This is a oldie from last year. For some reason, I have always skipped this shot just because it was not what I was looking for back then. Personally I like how this is one of those shots you discover later. A couple weeks ago, (and still going thru my old files!) this caught my eye and I'll started to play with it a bit more. I guess it looks quite nice like this, even tho Salacious is a bit out of depth of field. Also, I like how this scene is a bigger than I normally do, it does look cinematic imo, but I'm using standard 3:2 crop for it. Just my two cents.
As I was building this little guy, I pondered what exactly were the special effects guys were going for. I think they were trying to come up with the alien version of an old lady's dog. The kind that's mean looking, barks not stop, is butt-ugly and is clearly missing a few brain cells due to some heavy in-breeding. Personally, I think they nailed it, and I just can't stop lauging at this little monster.
Built for the Imperial March contest over on BrickNerd, category 1. Legendary Characters and Creatures (honestly, I am not so sure about the "Legendary" part, but I think it definitely fits the "creature" definition.
A huge cut log I happened upon on the Blue Crab Trail, at Sandy Point State Park back in early November, when the weather wasn't so cold. It reminds me of Jabba the Hutt.

Grasping the prized trophy firmly, Boba Fett braves a welcoming sand storm as he marches towards Jabba's Palace. In a place notorious for its pirates, bandits and scavengers, no prize is secure until it reaches the safety of a large payment.
One of my favorite sequences from the entire Star Wars trilogy, and with some of the best music to boot!

Everyone seemed to dig the previous shot with these guys so I decided a follow up was in order.

The gangster of all gangsters! Using the Kenner amazingly detailed Jabba the Hutt and his guards and not forgetting Salacious Crumb!
One night he appeared out of nowhere, just like that. He said his name was Spaceman, Classic Spaceman. A time traveler? A mystery.
Wherever he came from, whoever he was, he was a nice fellow, the staff at Jabba’s palace liked him. He spent time with Max Rebo, jammed with the band, gave some notes, and then one day, he just left, vanished in thin air, never to be heard from since.
But Max Rebo never had it so good, the notes the Spaceman left behind were awesome. "Lennon/McCartney", "Bowie", "Bacharach..." The names meant nothing to Max, but the music was fantastic, it blew his mind.
Actually, I have no idea what that story even means. A disrutpion in time/space continuum? Maybe. :D
This came from noticing the Lego minifigure turned 40 years old this week. I wanted to do something to celebrate the big day, or week.
I wanted to use my original red spaceman for this mashup photograph, but went with the white instead. My red spaceman is the only minifigure I had when I was a kid. Still got it. These reds appeared in only two of the 1979 wave sets.
‘The Gaurd’
A year ago (April 2024) Mic and I were exhibiting at Swansea Comic Con.
We were notified within a week that Hugh Spight was coming to take someone’s spot as someone couldn’t make it.
Hugh was the head Gamorreon Gaurd in Return of the Jedi.
We through together Jabbas dungeon background, grabbed a couple of familiar dungeon droids, plugged in the smoke machine, spread some sand and hey presto, sent image to print.
It was a very quick put together image but we’re happy with the result!

Little known fact: once a year Jabba the Hutt’s staff had a grand day off. They were allowed to take the Sail Barge for a night out on the dune sea. These nights were fun and laid back events, there was food, drinks and music. The barge wasn’t terribly big, but with the deck open and Jabba not occupying the lounge (physically and/or psychologically), it made an excellent party cruiser. The starry Tatooine night skies were beautiful and only added to the festive mood.
One of these nights, however, was the night of a terrible thunderstorm, it was a night to remember. One could live a lifetime on Tatooine and never see a lightning once, you see, and this time there were plenty. One hit the barge directly spooking everyone out of their wits. There wasn't anything like that on record, nor another was recorded since. Granted, the records were administered by the jawas, so they could be a little iffy...
Anyway, nobody got hurt, they made "I Was There" t-shirts afterwards.
I've had that Lego Sail Barge since it was issued in 2013, or, rather, we have had it, it is not mine. I never got around to photograph it before but I put it together yesterday and finally gave it a go today.
On a side note, photographing an image like this, one with smooth gradients, the true state of my camera's sensor becomes painfully real. It looks like there is a nest of mice inside the camera and they go and poop on the sensor. I have cleaned it myself from time to time, never touching it, never blowing air on it, but it is not enough anymore. I need to start looking for a place to have it properly cleaned at.
Walking near the legs is very dangerous!! There is an urgent
need for existing safety rules to be brought up to date.
Snowtroopers are stormtroopers trained for operations in arctic conditions and equipped with specialized gear to protect them against cold. When deployed, snowtroopers wear breath heaters and protective hoods, insulated suits and belt capes, rugged boots, heating units and survival backpacks. During the Battle of Hoth, snowtroopers under General Veers’ command were deployed from AT-AT Walkers and quickly and ruthlessly took control of Echo Base.

"I can´t abide those Jawas! Disguting creatures"
-C3PO
STAR WARS (A new hope) 1977.
Jawas are meter-tall humanoids completely hidden behind rough, hand-woven robes. Their faces are concealed within the dark folds of a cowl, from which peer their sickly glowing yellow eyes. They comb the deserts of Tatooine in search of discarded scrap and wayward mechanicals. Using their cobbled-together weaponry, they can incapacitate droids and drag them to their treaded fortress-homes, immense sand-scarred vehicles known as sandcrawlers. They sell their hastily refurbished junk to moisture farmers who are hard-pressed to find a better selection elsewhere.
Jawas are native to Tatooine, where settlers have long speculated about their biology and origins. Most live in clans, traveling the desert in sandcrawlers in search of junk to fix up and sell. Settlers have learned the hard way that some Jawa repairs only last until the sandcrawler departs – and sometimes not even that long.

"My lips just can't kiss enough of
My arms just can't squeeze enough of
My heart just can't love enough of you (wo-ho woa-a-ho)

I know our little dream is true (woo-who who)
I see a gleam in her eye-hi-hi
I know it's time to say goodbye-hi-hi

She won't go in til she kisses me some more
Oh, don't care for a diamond ring
Just you, you're my everything
