Title: some pics I snapped while playing with some lights...

I love this one...I'm going to use it for a cover art or something some day...or maybe I'll use it for a color contrast when I paper mache my bike in black and white newspaper (yeah I'm going to paper mache it...I'm not one of those yuppies who likes exposed carbon fiber).

I had to tweak the hell out of it because it didn't turn out like I like...originally it had real colors.

This one came off the camera this way...and it creeps me the f%$k out...

see more stuff at www.photoartclub.net (we actually have like 4 REALLY good photographers now lol)

no my eyes are closed.  I started the exposure with my eyes open for about half a second, then closed them.

yeah that second one is really creepy.  It is very cool at the same time though, it just reminds me of this one evil teacher I had one time, man she would see everything :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

<phone rings>
Mak: Hello?
Friend: Sup, dude?
Mak: Nothin'.  What's up with you?
Friend: Nothin'.  Hey, what cha doin' tonight?
Mak: Ah. . . I'm takin' pictures of myself.
Friend:  <chuckles>  What?
Mak: No.  Not like that.  I'm takin' pictures of myself in front of a red light bulb.
Friend: <chuckles>
Mak: What?
Friend: . . . 

In all seriousness, those are cool pics.  In my minds eye, you are always jacking around with something.  Like 24 hours a day.  Do you no longer require sleep or something?

I do always have my hands in something.  It's fun.  I inherited it from my dad...who started losing his mind as he got older and less able to be doing something all the time.

I'm going to print out a TLS field service manual and paper mache all the "exploded view" diagrams to the tank, tail, and upper.  The lower will likely be a checkered flag or something similarly spiffy.

oh and lol I set my hair on fire taking some of these shots
