One way or the other a very welcomed new arrival in the fast food scene!
Tried and tested the one on 45 Great Marlborough Street is highly recommendable:
friendliest staff and hot dim sums!

Knee is getting better by the day, but it is a long and painful process. Bare with me, I'll promise to be a good girl!
Well, as good as it gets with me, ey!?

ping pong paddles on a bench. I liked the light and coloring. They're actually red and blue, but don't look it.
Most of my free time during middle school was spent playing ping pong at a hang-out close to school. The rules were that winner got to keep playing on the table. That means the better I got, the more I got to play...which led to a snowballing effect in my skill level.
A few months ago I picked up a table relatively cheap and put it my bonus room. I'm glad to say that I haven't lost much in the way of ping pong even though I haven't played regularly in two decades. I've now played about 30 games recently with competitors of varying skill levels, but I remain undefeated on that table. And yes, I'm proud of that... ;-) UPDATE: Well, I was finally beaten on the table. My record may be tarnished, but my desire to play remains undeterred by imperfection.
This is actually a combination of two separate shots. While my setup meant that this shot very well could have been captured all at once, out of 50 shots I never got the perfect ball placement with a satisfactory pose and facial expression. When looking through the images, I realized that since the camera was on a tripod, and the light setting stayed the same for the bulk of the shots, I could easily combine a good ball-placement shot with a shot of a pose that I liked.
strobist: 2 White Lightning Ultrazap 1600s, camera left and right (directly beside subject), diffused by gridded stripboxes. 1 White Lightning Ultrazap 1600, camera right in front of subject, diffused by a gridded 16" beauty dish. 1 YN560, camera left, bare (zoomed to 105), pointed directly across the table and used to illuminate the ball when (hopefully) I timed the ball to pass through the field of light when the camera's shutter went off. Speaking of the camera's shutter, it was triggered via a wireless remote shutter release. I was triggering the camera via remote (2-second delay), then throwing the remote on the ground before striking the ball aiming for the YN560's path of light at the moment the shutter was tripped. Mainlight triggered via Cybersyncs, the rest were triggered via optical slave.

My cousin Luke's professional grade table and robot. This setup is something I hope to purchase someday once I can get a place with enough space. Tennis, racquetball, and table tennis are my three favorite racquet sports.

This boy is the most special player I've ever seen. He's playing very good.. and is funny to watch. I love that!
This photo was taken at the end of his last game (that he lost). He stayed like that during a few seconds then went out.

Ping pong has become so popular at our work that someone decided to host our first annual Ping Pong tournament! Who knew Ping Pong could be so fun to watch and take pictures of! I'll share a few from the day.
Team building: This is how we do it – great location, fun games, delicious snacks, a speech, few rewards and a lot of laughter!

I don’t usually brag. In fact, I like to pretend I’m a mostly humble person. Right? Right?!!
Well, your answer doesn’t matter because I don’t feel like being humble. Not today!
This photo may be seemingly innocent. Nothing special is going on here. My friend Uzo is across the ping pong table from me, watching a riveting match between Jeremy and our other friend Daniel.
Except the cool thing was that I had just bet that I could catch the ping pong ball flying by and not only catch it in the shot but catch it right over Uzo’s face. I didn’t even try twice! I got it the very next shot as it zoomed by. Just call me the Annie Oakley of the shutter button. Or how about the SLR Sniper?
Yeah I know, it’s not even in focus. But look, Uzo’s holding two yellow balls, the photo is off kilter, and it just screams art. Well maybe I did that on purpose. Yeah. That’s right. Suck it, René Magritte. I do it in real life.
Okay I’m not that cocky but it’s fun to pretend like you’re the biggest winner when a little bit of luck combines with a modicum of skill. :)
And… you know how I said nothing special was going on during this game? I lied. I think special is a good word to describe the following.
Love all my friends, haha.
This was my first ever foray into GBC (Great Ball Contraption). The screw raises the balls to the ramp which randomly distributes them among the four channels. Each channel is a modular "pinger" which flicks the balls into the air somewhat recklessly. They are caught by the large plates and channeled down the ramp to the next module.
I learned a lot about what NOT to do from this experience!
This image is from the BrickFair 2010 GBC display with the background mostly cut out for clarity.

Pakistan, Northern Areas, Government guest house. When we asked where the chowkidar (caretaker) was, the locals laughed. In this age of jeep travel nobody needs this guest house anymore. We had nowhere else to go with our horses-so we broke the locks off the door. We were the only guest, besides one bat. According to an aged guest log we were the first to stay here since 1947.
