I think 500 posts counts as an accomplishment worthy of celebration- and so I will appropriate pictures of another celebration-- My friend Elena had a birthday picnic yesterday and I finally got around to getting out my camera. I know Elena through fire-hazard and at any of our events there are, necessarily, nerf guns. It was a gorgeous day, my kite was attached to a bike and happily darting around in the sunlight, and there was hummous in 1 litre containers. A perfect setting for an all out nerf war.
The sky was blue, and I was sitting on the grass which meant that the sky kept beautifully framing people trying to shoot me. I started taking pictures and that soon developed into figuring out the best way to photograph a dart in flight. Most of the time this ended up with me being shot in the face and a menacing picture devoid of darts. Everyone once in a while it actually
worked and that was tremendously exciting:
|
Josh got hit in the face. |
|
I got hit in the face twice and totally missed Josh, but look! THREE darts flying through the air!! |
|
Tom was out to get Ruth. |
|
Gwyn looking all badass and trying to figure out how to cock two nerf pistols at once without the aid of a third hand.... |

Group Shot. (Heh. Pun.) |
