I spent some time mocking up my booth setup for my first art/craft show that's coming up. I didn't have an 8foot long table so I laid it all out on the floor to get an idea for spacing. There's still more prints and products to make but things are happening and it felt great seeing my photos hung up

I don't think I will ever stop being satisfied with a good looking, well poured pint of Guinness.

A new cycle of #DDPY started today. I've not attempted the advanced level yet, so let's see how this goes. Going to be a rough 13 weeks, but it's always worth it.

Prairie chickens are apparently trying to move into my house. In other news, I just discovered how badly I need to clean my windows.

Star trails from last night. LiveComp mode almost feels like cheating. 110+ images in 40 minutes, all processed in camera. I'm sure there are advantages to stacking them in dedicated software, but this works really well, especially for a first attempt

Pretty darned happy with how this one turned out. Not bad for only my second attempt if I do say so myself.

One of the photos from my first successful attempt to photograph the milky way. Taken northeast of Regina at my wife's family farm this past Thursday night

It's a Wednesday night. You had a cheese burger for supper followed by a bowl of ice cream. You're playing with a Batman action figure while watching Thundercats. You're 39 years old. Life is pretty good.

This little fellow was kind enough to pose for me this weekend while I wandered around my wife's families farm with my camera

If you squint hard enough you can see the faintest little bit of the milky way running down the centre of this image. I was too close to the city to really capture it but it was a fun first attempt. I have a better location scouted for my next attempt August

Hands down one of the best action figure accessories in my collection. Sgt. Slaughter with a tiny Sgt. Slaughter action figure.

At this point I think this crew would be a more competent choice to have overthrown the United States. At least accusations of space lasers and weather dominators would have some credibility.

$11 well spent this morning exploring garage sales. Each DVD set is the complete series for that character, plus documentaries. As for the book, as much as it is full of some satanic panic shit, that cover is fucking metal!

It's not a proper Canada Day if I don't make a post dedicated to the greatest Canadian wrestler of all time.

I took a stroll in a cemetery today because I heard some great horned owls nested there. I soon learned I have no clue how to track down owls. Did I think it was just going to be sitting there waiting for me? This little guy got my attention instead
