I snapped this on the way home back in February. A state trooper told me I I could not park at the boat launch, so I snapped a couple on my way out of th parking lot, parked down the road and walked back and snapped a couple more. One of the Myth Buster crew asked that I not post anything until after the Alaska week aired. It aired tonight. So I feel it is OK to post. Anyway the Myth involved a WWII boat made from ice and wood pulp. They made a skiff with a 150-HP engine out of frozen newspapers. This was shot after they tested the boat out in Carrol Inlet and Tongass Narrows off Mountain Point.
Man what a cold and snotty day that was...

Granted!

Nice. Although I would expect a different story. 'all work and no play, makes Jack a dull boy'

That's a good idea! We had previosuly used this typerwriter (from the 1930's) to type our bands album cover, inserts, etc... so this puppy is on his last legs! Maybe I'll set it up again and type that out for a pic...

New one from Lighting Class we were doing full frontal lighting with two hot lights shining straight on the model and one small hot light on the background.
