MAKE ME SMILE – STEVE HARLEY & COCKNEY REBEL
A bono fide street photographer
took a picture of me
he couldn't wait to show the results
his smile was full of glee
I said it only fair then
to take his picture too
but I am just a point and shoot
one click and that will do
he was happy to oblige
his face was wreathed in smiles
he posed among the superheroes
he added to my golden miles
travelling is such fun and bliss
to meet all kinds of folks
life is a bowl of delicious cocktails
all stirred and mixed and sharing jokes
I never even asked his name
and he didn't ask for mine
we were both happy to be in this moment
sharing our love of photographic lines
we felt a kindred spirit and bathed
in a glowing instant friendship made
and just as suddenly as we had bonded
we parted ways and neither stayed
no backward glances
no fond farewells
but through our photographs
the memory dwells.

I loved Mythbusters, havn't seen it in years, decided to put a disc in my Netflix DVD Q a few months ago and promptly forgot about it. I find it deeply surreal that it happened to arrive in the mail the very day Grant Imahara died.
I noticed this airframe in the background during one of their excursions to the Mojave Boneyard to destroy something. I shot this first gen 747 in 2003 and it was shredded and recycled within a few years. Shot during astronomical twilight, about 4 minutes on Kodak 100VS film and lit with a hand-held, red-gelled strobe.
First, huge thanks to TheCampervanTom for designing the faces.
I had the heads printed by United Bricks, and I love the way they turned out.
Both torsos are painted by me (simple stuff), aswell as the legs.
Not much else to say about them, leave thoughts below!

I built this mosaic to give to the MythBusters crew when they came down to LEGOLAND for the film shoot. When I went up to their shop to work on the giant LEGO ball for the Youtube Special episode I re-built it in front of a time lapse camera. The footage was sped up so that it looks like it's built in a matter of seconds. They used the clip twice on the show. Watch for my hands zipping in and out of the shot.

I had a really weird dream last night. I'm not making this up, I had this one.
A little back story, I LOVE Mythbusters. I think it's the greatest show on TV. The 2 hosts Adam and Jamie are gods to me. They get paid to do stuff that I would happily do for free. Now that's a job.
The short story on this shot is my two idols are mad at me and giving me a lecture. OMG I'm embarrassed. Here's the long story of my dream last night.
I'm in New York for some reason or another. Lo and behold, Jamie and Adam are in the same building. I guess it's a hotel or something. Adam is selling rolls of paper that taste like tropical fruit. Mango and pineapple if I remember correctly.(Why anyone would eat flavored paper is beyond me, but it's a dream, remember.) So I'm interested. First, I love these guys, and second, fruit flavored paper! So I buy some and ask him if he has any more. He goes to get some and I decide to try to make tea with the paper. So I get some water boiling on the stove and wander off. I forget all about the tea for a while. Several hours later I remember and have to run back to their room, I think it was Jamie's room, and tell them what I've done. I'm mortally embarrassed and horrified that I may have set their room on fire. When I get there they are both there with that look my parents used to have on their faces when I came in several hours after curfew or really messed up. Jamie begins to lecture me about safety and give me the "We expected better from you" speech. I'm totally mortified that my idols think I'm a complete putz. Fortunately I wake up now and don't have to face them any more. So here I am getting lectured by my heroes. What a nightmare.
(Where the hell did my mind come up with this?)
