Shadow Puppet

Quack!

yep! Elephants on parade...

I am known for my many shadow puppet animals, but I'm probably best at "The Bird."

(Psst - Terry... we're outside now, it's okay to take of your mask... you look like you escaped from the hospital.)

Shooting an abandoned farm with Terry.

Escaped from a hospital? You mean a mental hospital?

Terry even looks like a badass. Like some twisted, torturing hit man with creepy techniques.

I can do a pretty mean cactus too... ;)

You obviously know Terry... yes, mental hospital! ;) Thanks Rob!

Hehe... thanks Brooke! Maniacal, yes... but badass? This is TERRY we're talking about... ;)

He thinks it will help protect him from the disease floating in the air in these places. Really, we need organic masks... I've just been inhaling the black mold and LOVING it! And thank you for the comments man!!

heh. All in good fun man... I fully expect a photographic retaliation from our next photowalk. And hell yes it makes us look like two big kids - because that is what we ARE. It's all about having fun (even at each others' expense) on the photowalks!!

Thank you!!

Dude - thank you very much! I was actually about to shoot a busted up computer on the ground, and I glanced up and saw the wonderful shadows cast on the side of the barn from the setting sun. Instantly, the shot was born! :)

Speak for yourself... I'm straight. :) Thank you for the comments on the shot! ;)

Thank you very much! It still makes me giggle. I crack myself up too easily though. I have the sense of humor of a 13-year-old...

;) Glad you enjoy, Will!! As for the mask - see above!

;)

You know it, buddy! Thank you so much for the mad props and comments Tom! I'm sure we'll keep it going - it's too much fun to not keep this photo banter up!! :)

Thank you kindly, sir!!

Thanks Marty! That setting sun left some awesome lighting that played so wonderfully in black and white!! It was almost like having a strobe setup!

Too damn funny! I don't know what I laughed harder at.... Vince's shadow, or the tags. Terry with that mask looks like the Brain Surgeon from Hell. Scares me, and I'm fearless! =)

It sure looks like Uncle Fester from the Adams family. And you my friend do an awesome Bird, but in this case you make for a great Elephant. Look at your shadow and you will see, and no your zipper has nothing to do with it, sicko.

I think this is why my wife says things about 'those people that I go out taking photos with'

But I won't say to her, "You'll never understand"
