I remember being disappointed when a Fairlane Extra took so long to load as light kept fading on a short December afternoon. Got some other good shots on this Missabe afternoon, but thought this would be a good chase home.
It finally got rolling and I was able to eeek out some shots at Highway 7 here at Forbes, MN. Worked out OK in the end, but was tense as you didn't know if you had enough light for the shots to work out until you got the slides back. Shot taken on 12/1/02 as the 214 departs Evtac.
I had a suspicion that this might occur but was unaware, should it do so, exactly where.
As it turned out it occurred right in my field of vision.
To use a rail-based analogy, I was well chuffed!
Aaron and I decided to try out a skate shot. Other than my kid's soccer game I havet picked up the camera much. I wanted to use a light but too lazy to take anythign else out so I decided to break out the ringflash. I knew I wanted to get wider angle shot, but the issue if you use any small primes on the ring flash you end up taking a pic of the barrel of the ringflash. I had to use a 1.4x kenko extension on the 24mm. I posted a setup shot on instagram. We plan on doing another proper skate shot soon.

My back door is glass and looks out on an open breezeway between my back yard and side yard. It has become an urban game trail of sorts with feral cats, raccoons, possums, lizards and bugs to be seen at night. So I have a camera near by. Which is how I captured this tense encounter between Goliath, the alpha male possum that rules my yard and a youngster old enough to be living on its own. The teenager whirled and ran off right after this shot. Thanks to my indoor cats & the wild critters trying to look thru the door, the glass always seems to be dirty when I take these shots but you can see what was going on.

I really like this sculpture. It is in the garden of the old Nationalgalerie. The sculptor Ferdinand Lepcke created them.

Contrary to tense expectations, our civilization didn't go out with a bang-that happened later. Before the bio-weapons and nukes ever mutilated the planet, society was already degraded, rotted out from the inside. By saying "inside", I'm not blaming the governments. Sure, part of it was their fault, but the general public shared in the responsibility-more so in democratic countries. The fall of the United States was particularly pathetic. The "public", through a flawed "majority rule" system that subjectivized all sorts of moral abominations, validated promiscuity on previously unspeakable levels and insatiably demanded more and more material fripperies despite a declining ecological state and astronomical debt.
Escapism was rampant-nobody wished to face the problems of the day in their entirety. Many methods were used, but the best-and most costly-was Cybernetic Detachment-an immersive and addicting form of social-platform-based virtual reality, made more addicting when enhanced through the use of drugs. Following several technological breakthroughs, Detachment software was cheapened and the cerebral interfaces were publicly commercialized. A "zombie apocalypse", so widely conceptualized in pop culture before, ensued. People, nationwide and around the world, vegetated, engrossed in their own petty, digitized fantasy realms. As a large section of the enthralled population quietly settled down, a few government officials, no longer seeing any need to govern, quietly slipped out of office, subsequently Detaching themselves. More followed, and eventually there was no government to speak of. Of course, not everyone was detached-far from it!-and many people, myself included, expressed discontent. To no avail.
Nobody knows quite what happened next. My guess is that radicals, holding no concept of a happy medium, vandalized and infiltrated their way into now-abandoned weapons facilities. If so, then they inflicted so, so much destruction...
Wandering the wasteland now, I guide the newer, diminished generation of survivors. Their parents, in the grip of a Celtic Detachment fad, had raised them like pagans. Fools! Withholding countless centuries of human accomplishment and knowledge from their children for the sake of their selfish fantasies. Wandering from tribe to settlement as a druid (for they will not accept me otherwise; though they are unaided by a Detachment simulation as their parents were, they have been taught that the world is as it is not, and I must fit into their make-believe world in order to receive aid, or give it, too), I try to teach them what has been lost, while contending with mutated bio-weapons and toxic pitfalls. The world will never again be as it was, but if I can open their eyes to the truth-the only truth-that may be for the better.

Made for a private challenge. ChatLUG was discussing the n00b stereotype of "fig on a pl8", and decided it would be fun to see how well we could pull off an 8x8 version of just that. I won't tell you what the qualifier for challenge victory is-that would give me an unfair advantage. ;)

Tenser is one of my favorite new generation writers. He paints with alot of different people and he is great with backgrounds too. I've shot his work since 2007 and met him when he ran a cool little graff shop in Kensington market with some friends. He has a hidden talent, he's great with video and photography. Don't know too many writers who are into photography past documentation. Got a few more days of photos.

"you can spend your time alone, redigesting past regrets, oh
or you can come to terms and realize
you're the only one who can't forgive yourself, oh
makes much more sense to live in the present tense"
