Photography

My camera has been out of commish for months now. What a drag. But for my birthday this year, I treated myself to a new one! Unfortunately it wasn't here in time for the 6/14 show!! I'd sure like to contribute here again!
 
This doesn't actually qualify much for photography, but I shot this with my digital camera when I was in Vegas last month.

This is what happens when you have too many toys and Iron Maiden CDs lying around your desk...

I LOVE your desk, Jeremy! I had all the Robotech models when I was younger! lol! GoBots and Transformers as well!

Thanks, John. That was my old desk in Burbank. Unfortunately, my current desk doesn't have room for any of my toys. Oh well, I'll be buying some shelves at Ikea soon.

Here's a slideshow of my YF-19:

Here are a few shots of my VF-1S Valkyrie I took with an old Sony 1.3 megapixel camera back in 2003. Even I'm astounded by the results of such an antique relic.

Testing the new webcam...

Since you didn't become a fan until years after that shirt became unavailable, I'm guessing you paid big bucks on ebay (or some similar way) to get one. If there's a cheaper way to get one of those, I'd like to know how.

Don't know if $20 counts as "big bucks" on eBay for the shirt. Need to stitch up the hole that was left from the missing tag, though.
 
you picked a nice clear day to hit the bay jer - did you go to that cool musuem with the indian mummies on the dock? it's got those vintage penny machines and lots of old fossils, memorabilia and folk lore too. cool place - i think we were in that store for like an hour!

Thanks. No, I wasn't able to go to that museum. Spent most of the day at the Space Needle. Pictures coming up very shortly.

sweet deal!

Wow, I must be really lucky. ;)
 
Here's the Science Fiction Museum just in front of the Space Needle. I didn't know such a thing existed. Unfortunately, I arrived right around closing time. Maybe next time.

And here's the Space Needle itself.

Riding the elevator to the observation deck takes 40 seconds and costs $16. Dining at the SkyCity restaurant costs an arm and a leg, but you do get a 360-degree view of Seattle.

If you thought your job was tough, try replacing a water duct on the Needle.

KeyArena on the lower right. Who knows how long that place will last, now that the Sonics are gone.

Did a road trip to the San Francisco bay area a couple weeks ago:
