My daughter used her position as Assistant Stage Manager to shoot our ballet performance. Here are a few of her shots.
One of Joseph Gutierrez's pieces, Predator Too is very dark and threatening, and there is a huge amount of action onstage. I'm amazed that there are never any collisions!
Predator Elder from the end of Predator 2. Absolutely awesome figure, can't wait to do some cool shots of him with a better background.
I'm pretending that I'm applying for a job as a toy product photographer. :)
My fee? I get to keep the toy I'm shooting plus one that's still mint on card (MOC).
I'm only half-joking. He he he. I hope a toy manufacturer takes the bait.

History of the MQ-1B "Predator"
The MQ-1 "Predator" is a medium-altitude, long-endurance unmanned aerial system (UAS) that was employed primarily to collect intelligence and secondarily to engage enemy targets. Beginning its service with the Army in 1995 and later used by the U.S. Air Force, the MQ-1 was deployed in every major U.S. conflict during this period until its retirement in 2018. The MQ-1's capabilities made it uniquely qualified to conduct irregular warfare operations.
The Predator was part of a remotely piloted aircraft system. A fully operational system consisted of four aircraft, ground control station, Predator Primary Satellite Link, and spare equipment, along with operations and maintenance crews for deployed 24-hour missions. A Predator crew consisted of a pilot to control the aircraft and command the mission, an aircrew member to operate sensors and weapons, and a mission coordinator, when required.
The Predator and Hill Air Force Base
In 2004, the U.S. Air Force used the Utah Test and Training Range (UTTR) to assess the Predator's ability to strike a moving target with munitions. Crew members guided the drone remotely from Indian Springs, Nevada, and struck two moving tanks with Hellfire missiles. Because of this testing, the Predator was later used in combat to engage enemy targets. The Ogden Air Logistics Complex at Hill also provided software development and sustainment in support of the MQ-1 when in active service. Extensive UAS activities continue today on the UTTR with several different services and platforms.
The MQ-18 on display first flew on 31 January 2005, and was later assigned to Indian Springs Auxiliary Field, Nevada. During its service life, this Predator took part in combat sorties in Iraq, Kuwait, and Afghanistan. After flying 28,069 hours and over 1,600 combat sorties, it retired from service in 2017 and was delivered to the Hill Aerospace Museum for display in 2020.

Before Lansing's notorious Deluxe Inn was demolished graffiti artists were allowed to use the building as their canvas.
You're not considered an adult until you've had your first successful hunt so the folks sent me to some far away world packed with strange, fierce little creatures called spartans and romans.... They were no match for me though!

Walking with the wolves at Predator Experience in Cumbria is simply extraordinary. Set against the stunning backdrop of the Lake District, this is not just a walk — it’s a rare and profound chance to step into the world of these incredible animals.
From the very start, Dee and Daniel’s outstanding knowledge and passion shone through. Their deep understanding of wolf behaviour, evolution, physiology and conservation brought every moment to life. It’s not just about being close to wolves — it’s about understanding them, their natural instincts, their communication, and their role in the natural world.
The wolves themselves are nothing short of mesmerising. Cheveyo, meaning "spirit warrior," Chalok, meaning "of the earth," and Chitali, meaning "shooting star," each carry their own story and spirit. At the beginning of the walk, Noah, the fourth wolf, chose not to come out — a perfect reminder that these are not pets or performers, but proud, independent animals with minds of their own. However, at the end of our walk, we had the opportunity to meet Noah — a special moment that felt like an extra gift, adding to the authenticity of the experience.
Walking through the countryside with these stunning creatures was unforgettable. To be accepted into their space, even briefly, was deeply humbling. Dee and Daniel guided us with such care and respect for the wolves, making sure everything was on their terms. Their commitment to the welfare of the animals was clear at every step.
This experience isn’t just brilliant — it is unforgettable, emotional, and genuinely life-enhancing.
