Of course, where there's a jousting exhibition, there's going to be some controlled mayhem. I previously showed you some of the earlier face-offs, but for these shots, I was using a wider-angle lens to capture more of the action at once.
I started to whittle alone one fall day when my sweetheart was far away, and the kids were all out of the house. I shaved deep gouges into a little branch, feeling through the knots, finding memories like splinters.
Named for its splintered legs and lack of feet. This Assault Cores (A.C.) preferential mode of transit and combat is in the skies due to an increase of mobility; however, the Splinter Z02 is also a capable ground assault unit. His equipment consists of a wrist mounted laser, which doubles as a laser sword in close combat and a high impact deflector shield on the opposite wrist. Splinter Z02 isn’t the toughest or the most lethal A.C., but he’s probably the quickest and most agile making him an ideal matche against heavier armored A.C.’s. He can fly circles around them and before they’ve even managed a lock-on, he’ll have come in for a surgical strike to the power relays, rendering them defenseless.
This is another shot of that little beast that I showed you yesterday. This one, honestly, isn't quite as good as the last one, but this slightly out of focus shot is one of the clearest shots I have of the full length of the spider. I really wanted to show off this spider's markings but it was quite the difficult task. You see, the spider kept flying away using its web-sail. Don't forget, this one was really tiny. You'll have a sense of scale in later shots.
Me, my camera, and everything else are sticky with Sprite and smell like coffee beans, and something made my hand itchy, but I have absolutely nothing to complain about. It's just all part of being a photographer. :]
Oh, I think I got a sliver too. :p
El Maestro Astilla o Master Splinter (en inglés), es un personaje de ficción procedente de los Comics y la serie de animación estadounidense Tortugas Ninja Hizo su primera aparición en Eastman & Laird: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles No 1 (Mayo de 1984).
Homato Yoshi era el más grande maestro del ninjitsu no solo de su clan (conocido como The Foot) sino de todo el Japón, junto al vivÃa una pequeña y joven rata llamada Splinter el cual era la mascota de Yoshi. Desde su jaula, Splinter observaba los movimientos de su "maestro" y los imitaba a la perfección.
El constante acoso que sufrÃa Yoshi por parte del lÃder del clan, Oroku Naga, lo obligo a huir a Estados Unidos (luego de haber matado a Naga) junto a su esposa Tang Shen, otro de los motivos de la rivalidad Yoshi/Naga.
Ya en Estados Unidos Yoshi vuelve de una larga rutina de trabajo solo para encontrar a su esposa muerta, asesinada por la katana del hermano de un hombre que mato años atrás; Oroku Saki (el hombre que a la larga seria conocido en Occidente como Shredder), hermano de Oroku Naga ahora era el lÃder del clan y estaba enfundado en una armadura samurái; asesina a Yoshi y Splinter huye de Shredder refugiándose en el alcantarillado de Nueva York, subsistiendo de lo que pudiera encontrar para comer.
Pero el destino le sonreirÃa nuevamente, en un dÃa normal, un invidente trata de cruzar la calle y casi es atropellado por un camión que contenÃa un recipiente con material radioactivo, a su ves un niño pierde una pecera con cuatro bebes tortugas que cae a la alcantarilla y son bañadas con el liquido radioactivo que también cae al alcantarillado.
Splinter encuentra a las tortugas y las reúne en una lata vieja de café y las pone junto a él en su madriguera. Es a la mañana siguiente que se encuentra con que el liquido que les cayo encima acelero su actividad evolutiva por lo que Splinter ve que las tortugas duplicaron su tamaño original y ,además, el mutageno también le afectó volviéndose más grande y más inteligente.
El tiempo transcurrÃa y las tortugas empezaron a articular sus primeras palabras (la primera en hablar fue Migelangel que dijo su nombre), Splinter se dio cuenta que el mundo jamas los comprenderÃa al ser para ellos diferentes pero a su ves ve el enorme potencial que poseen las tortugas, por lo que decide enseñarles el arte del ninjitsu aprendido de su maestro, dándoles nombres que saco de un libro del renacimiento.

I have decided now, its time i spend some more time working on my photography.
At the beginning i had spent a lot of time on composition, and technique and developing which i have improved greatly but still need a lot of work.
I now want to concentrate on shooting in the right conditions, utilizing light and different weather conditions. Also trying to add different styles of photography to my stream as appose to only normally shooting wide open landscape shots.
I really want to look into textures, minimalism. b/w. shapes and forms as well as light and atmosphere. Just really begin to mix things up and give myself much more opportunity when out taking photographs.
This was a last minute run into the middle of now where to find a tree i shot years back and turns out that no longer exists. I came across this splintered stump of a tree and the light was reveling a lot of great tones throughout the grass tree and sky.
