Here's my new sniper with a guillie suit. The fabric is the actual fabric that they use to make guillie suits. Hope you like it !
I was on Front Street in downtown Toronto this morning, checking out an historic building that was redesigned by Aaron, a retired Architect and my Stranger #818 (www.flickr.com/photos/jeffcbowen/18248730940/in/dateposted/). Part of the building is complete, including a multistory addition above it, and part is still undergoing renovation. I was starting to unlock my bicycle to move on when I saw her. She was coming toward me on the sidewalk with her beautiful blue scarf and circular sunglasses. She had a composed, relaxed air about her as she passed me and my curiosity was tweaked. I stopped her and she removed her earphones. I proceeded with my usual “Excuse me. My name is Jeff and I’m doing an amateur photo project….” She agreed without a second thought and said it sounded like a great project. We shook hands. Meet Melissa.
We were on a busy sidewalk with the building front on one side and a huge street construction project on the other side. It was “scramble time” as I looked at the immediate surroundings to come up with a way to make use of the opportunity. I posed Melissa between the building of interest and the building next door: The Hockey Hall of Fame. I knew the bright light in the laneway was less than ideal but I proceeded. I asked if I could straighten her sunglasses and she said “Sure. That’s ok. They might not straighten. They’re kind of wonky.” She was right. “Ok” I said. “That will be part of the character of this photo.” We shared a laugh. I had to photograph from the other side of the sidewalk and I appreciated the pedestrians who stopped to wait between “takes” so as to not get in the way. People can be so accommodating.
Not sure that I had a good enough image (see comment photo) I asked Melissa to move a few steps to the open doorway of the building under renovation. The workmen were inside and I called to them to ask if it would be ok to step inside the doorway for “just one minute” to take a photo of Melissa. They looked at each other (probably a bit nonplussed by my nerve), then waved me in with a friendlynshrug. I positioned Melissa inside the door with construction disarray and the workmen behind her and balanced myself on the step outside the door in the sunlight. It was somewhat precarious but it worked. I asked Melissa to remove her sunglasses and suggested that she follow up her smiling photo with a relaxed, neutral expression and figured I had the photo. Thanking the workmen, we stepped onto the sidewalk to chat.
Melissa, 22, was born and raised in Toronto. She is a recent college graduate with a major in Public Relations. “Oh, so you’re probably just hitting the job search?” “Well, pretty much. But I think I’m going to take a little break for travel first. I’m going to Quebec where I hope to learn some French which will make me more marketable.” Smart strategy. What was she doing when I interrupted her progress? “Oh, I was just walking to the park to relax and read a book. I like to alternate fiction pleasure reading with more serious reading.” I can remember one of the joys of finishing university was being able to read whatever I wanted to read without guilt that it wasn’t a textbook. “Any words you would like to share with the world?” Melissa laughed at the scope of the question. “I know, I’m just making life difficult for you” I said. She replied “No. Just give me a second. Uh, I think I would say to make time to do the things you value and don’t put them off.” I think she was talking about travel. “What do you like to do when you’re not going to the park to read?” I asked. “Well, I like food. I mean I REALLY like food.” “Your favorite food?” “Let’s just say I REALLY like food.” (smiling)
From the few minutes we spent together Melissa came across as very friendly, relaxed, and sincere. There was a gentle honesty about her and I thought it striking that she responded to my unexpected project request as if it was the most natural thing in the world. I think these nice qualities show in the portraits.
With that I thanked Melissa and freed her up to get to the park on this beautiful, sunny Toronto morning. Thank you Melissa for taking the time to meet and for participating in The Human Family. You are #834 in Round 9 of my project. Have fun in Quebec and good luck with your job search. And be sure to enjoy some of that Quebec cooking!
Update: I received a very nice email from Melissa saying she had enjoyed our meeting and she was positively impressed by my photos. She thanked me and wished me well on my continuing project. It was very nice feedback.

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.

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

This little guy was sick of me giving him one peanut at a time. He noticed my red bucket filled with the snack, and decided to jump in and raid it!

While imaging the Heart Nebula for the third time, I noticed a new detail while processing the Ha data -- the planetary nebula WeBo 1 (also known as PN G135.6+01.0). This planetary nebula {PN) is located about 5,000 ly away in the constellation Cassiopeia. The PN is about 1 arc-minute wide (the full moon is 30 arc minutes wide), corresponding to a length of 1.5 ly. We are seeing the PN from an almost edge-on perspective, so the circular ring around the central star appears elliptical.
The central star has been determined spectroscopically to be a barium star. Barium stars are spectral class G to K stars whose spectra indicate an overabundance of slow neutron-capture process (s-process) elements by the presence of singly ionized barium. The s-process is responsible for the creation of approximately half the atomic nuclei heavier than iron.
Observational studies suggest that all barium stars are binary stars. This PN's barium star's companion is a white dwarf and is no longer visible to us. This binary system has a 5-day rotation period. This binary rotation led to the Ha gas being preferentially ejected in an orbital plane rather than a sphere, so WeBo 1 is surrounded by a ring of gas instead of a sphere.
WeBo 1 was first identified in 1995 on Digitized Sky Survey images.

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.

Some guy, never caught his name. He was extremely discreet when ordering this hit on a rich politician. Never liked the guy's choices either they would drive the city to the damn ground or would make barely any sense. Anyway upon scouting it out I spotted the politician walking out of this banquet hall, I looked through the scope of my rifle and was ready to pull the trigger. I changed my mind though. I set down my rifle and made my way to the street where buddy was walking, after taking my revolver out of the holster at my side I spoke up at the man to walk into the alley to the left of him, I knew ahead of time that it was a dead end. He walked slowly down the way. I twisted him around and slugged him in the face he seemed to shoot across the pavement floor until he hit the back of a fence. He looked up looked up with shock and a bit awe, until I cocked my hammer and pulled the trigger.

Made this very quick fig with my New U-Scope ! I absolutely love it ! :D
Oh and Brickl.... Your Package still didn't arrive....
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.
The excellent polar scope reticle in the iOptron mounts. Super easy to polar align and adjustable illumination.
I am taking photos with my various lenses and lens / camera body combinations of my oscilloscope at my workbench, and upload them so you can have a look at how different lenses render a piece of technology in less than ideal light. Here, on the M50 mark ii, using Viltrox speed booster, with the EF 28-80mm F2.8-4L lens. At 28mm wide end, with the boosting that convert to 31mm full frame equivalent field of view. At wide open, F2.8, at ISO400. No sharpening, but tiny amount of luminance and chroma noise reduction. Was not really needed, but it added a layer of shine and smoothness to the texture. Finally, downscaled a little to 2880p size. So far, this is one of my favorite shots of the scope! Also, with this combinmation, the M50 mirrorless has an exemplary rendering worthy of a DSLR. I just have found my favorite lens for the M50.
