ODT "begins with R" rust (moved this over from the ODC group cause i found a better R one)
I know this sprinter waited for the opportunity to jam itself under a nail, or deep into a finger, or the palm of a hand. Once photographed it was removed. Gone forever. Revenge is best served in any way possible 😠
The annual Guide Bridge reunion has been held, for the last few years, at The Corporation which doesn't sell real ale so the above happy band of brothers eventually migrate next door to here - The Boundary - for a decent pint!

NGC 5907 is a spiral galaxy located approximately 50 million light years from Earth. It has an anomalously low metallicity and few detectable giant stars, being apparently composed almost entirely of dwarf stars. It is a member of the NGC 5866 Group.
NGC 5907 has long been considered a prototypical example of a warped spiral in relative isolation. Then in 2006, an international team of astronomers announced the presence of an extended tidal stream surrounding the galaxy that challenges this picture and suggests the gravitational perturbations induced by the stream progenitor may be the cause for the warp.
NGC 5907 is also known at the Knife Edge or Splinter galaxy.
The galaxy was discovered in 1788 by William Herschel. Supernova 1940A was in this galaxy. (Wiki)

Here's April O'Neil from the recent TMNT reboot, with a teeny Beast Boy and a teeny Starfire. The latter two's Mom is Raven, just out of shot.
Another example of the sort of shot I like to find, but didn't feel comfortable about taking under last year's photo policy. The wall alongside the staircase was just a good place to sit near the end of a long day. When April saw the kids' interest in her Donatello, of course she let them play with it. It was about as cute as cute gets.
This scene illustrates what I love about modern cons: they're multigenerational. It's not just the same group of aging fans. You see people in their Fifties and even Sixties, all the way down to yoots like these.

Franz and I are sporting trash bags over our gear as the rain comes down making for some pretty difficult shooting conditions.

The official Playmates figures for the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie leave a lot to be desired, so I decided to fix them in order to make them completely movie accurate. I studied several images and trailer stills in order to get down every detail. Each figure has been fully repainted from head to toe, with spots on their skin, Japanese Kanji on their bandanas and shells, and realistic shading, highlights, and weathering. For Leonardo I used the head from the Combat Warrior figure (the deluxe sized figures), because it’s actually smaller than the basic figure’s head (which is too big), and it sits better on the figure, and added the NYC button on his weapon strap. For Michelangelo, I added the shades around his necklace, and the tattoo on his left arm. On Raphael I added the scar over his lip, the tattoo on his right bicep, and some shades that fit on his forehead. For Donatello, I also used the head from the Combat Warrior figure, because the sculpt was much more detailed, and looked better. I made his glasses out of craft wire, with sewing thread for the tape and painted them to look like tortoiseshell frames. I also used sewing thread for the electrical wiring to connect pieces of his equipment. Of course I also went through and gave all their weapons realistic repaints as well, adding real chain to Mikey’s. And now that the Ninja Turtles actually look like they do from the movie, they’re ready to take down Shredder and the entire Foot Clan. COWABUNGA!
Better late than never, huh? I wasn't planning on building any Vic Vipers this year(seeing as the ones I built last year didn't turn out so well), but I did anyway. I think these are far better than my last attempt. What do you think?
Photograph taken at an altitude of Two metres, lying flat on my belly at 14:58pm on Monday 22nd September 2014 off 1st Street and Bevan Avenue, on the Bevan Avenue Fishing Pier in beautiful Sidney by the sea on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada.
The Bevan Avenue fishing pier is one of the main focal points in this small but beautiful town where some of my family are so lucky to reside. I am never happier than when walking around and capturing the beauty and charm of this most special of locations. Work commenced on the pier in 1993 withn Phase one, a 90 metre straight section being completed in 1996. A year later the 110 metre Phase two section was completed.
