I got out shooting yesterday with Aaron. Our original plan was to drive up to Panther Creek Falls and take the best landscape photos that either of us have ever taken, the kind that get published and allow you to retire fat and rich. Well neither really happened. We got about a mile up the Panther Creek road before things got a bit too sketchy with downed trees and piles of snow. So we turned around rather than end up in tomorrow's headlines.
As you might expect, we really had no Plan B, so we set about creating one. The first part was to stop at a little waterfall we had passed on the way up that I have photographed before, which is notable because it has the remnants of an old mine bored through the solid rock face next to the falls. We got wet and muddy tromping around that falls for a good half an hour and then hit the road again. As Aaron had never been to that falls before, he decided to show me a spot along the Columbia River I had never stopped at before myself.
It turned out to be one of our best stops of the day. The area is a geologist's dream with brutal, rugged layers and chunks of rock to marvel at, or in our case, photograph. Which I did with abandon. We were watching some pretty big rain clouds blow in from the west and the wind was pretty harsh, so eventually we started to wind our way back to where we had parked. I decided to steal off for a few minutes just to scope out a bit more of the area while Aaron grabbed some last minute shots of his own and I found this little cluster of rocks poking out of the river. It took a bit of a balancing act and a few hops, and a jump or two but I managed to work my way out into the river on this little string of boulders until I was facing this large triangular piece of stone.
I was really intrigued by its strong shape and how that contrasted with the softer line of the hills beyond it, but nothing I had was wide enough to get the whole scene as I was seeing it. So I precariously hopped my way back to shore. Safely deposited all of my cameras and borrowed Aaron's Canon 50D which had his 10-22mm lens on it. Then I balanced my way back out and set this shot up.
I like the result well enough, but even more so, I love the composition. This is a shot that I will certainly keep in mind for another day, perhaps a sunrise or a sunset. Or maybe a good shot for infrared in my pinhole, which ought to be wide enough to get this whole rock as well.
Aaron was nice enough to e-mail me over a small version of this image so I don't have to wait until next week to get the full file from him. I am hoping I have one that doesn't crop into the rock on the left... but like I said. This one is just a test. :-)

Staff Sgt. Douglas Brown looks through a boresight telescope on an F-16 Fighting Falcon trainer to make sure the M61A1 Vulcan cannon barrels are correctly aligned at Misawa Air Base, Japan, July 2, 2012. As Brown watched the crosshairs of the scope, he instructed another Airman to move a collimator so the weapon alignment was accurate. Brown is a 35th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron resource advisor.

Four Leaf Clover
Series - 1 of 4
.
All sizes please!
Propably the final version - i've used s**tload of my creative ideas on this project:D
Since version A4, i made only cosmetic changes to the whole gun, and added custom scope
Also - check all tech data on A4 version description
Hope you like it:D
Description
Although excellent parameters, A4 version of 'Pinpointer' wasn't a complete succes. Due to minor comfort issues and lack of sufficient targeting system, Delta Xray took customers advices into account and re-projected rifle. The outcome, is the new A5 version.
Changes since A4 version:
-Larger thumb hole, for easier operating
-Custom build-in scope (model QXT-11a - see description_
-Even better rail cooling system
QXT-11a Indirect View System (patent pending)
Due to the extreme distances between target and XRF-228 user, scientists inveted completely new targeting system. Scope works in two modes: Direct and Indirect view. Direct is standard see-through modified zoom (4x-20x) sniper scope. The innovation is Indirect View. Small computer on the side collects video feed (from a variety of sources - helmet cams, hacked security cams and so on). This image is displayed to the user. Alongside - computer with collects data where the gun is pointed and corrects that on the display (so while viewing target through another soldier helm-cam, u still see your crosshairs - they appear as on the object user' currently looking at.) Also, a little button immiediately points the gun a the place the user's currently looking at.
Micro-Movement System:
When target's farther than 3000m meters, it's almost impossible to correct the crosshair with human hands. And there's another innovation. Small joystick is connected to the Gyro-stabilizer, allowing for supreme accuracy. (also works when Indirect view is on)
----------------------------
I hope you understand how scope works - it's not that complicated:D

Im in shiny-science class at my shiny-school and got my own purple latex shiner-scope that lets me see shiny rubber latex cells.
More latex land links below.
The second Mech I post on Flickr is Scope Dog Custom.
I tried to make 'Scope Dog' with the original. But the other Armored Troopers were cool too and mixed together at once.
So I named it 'Scope Dog Custom.'
The head and legs are referred to as 'Scope Dog' and 'Shadow Flare' etc.
I also expressed the folding shape which is characteristic of the Armored Trooper. This was a very laborious task, which made it less durable.
I will continue to modify this 'AT' and improve the details.
Thank you.

Harvest Moon 09/19/2013- taken a bit closer using the telescope mirror and my macro lens... I feel like that is a weird sort of contradiction in photography....
