8"x10" size. (Scanned at 300dpi.)

My first-ever paid-for sci-fi fan photo with a star! And to think what else I could have wasted $ AUS 40 on.

I guess I am tall enough to play Bones if Karl ever falls ill, though I'm not quite as beefy as him.

Karl was an entertaining speaker and came across as a real nice guy, so this is a worthwhile momento of my first ever sci-fi expo and meeting him.

The pro photographer was using an EOS 1D of some sorts, hotshoe wireless transmitter, two softboxes for lighting and one 8x10 glossy a popping out a few minutes later.



See all the shots Kris took over both days of Supanova with his Nikon D3 D-SLR here:

The Strand is a sweet little walkway and parallel bike path that in turn parallel the Pacific, from Redondo Beach up to at least Santa Monica. In between the two paths there is land cultivated and garden by the owners who live up against the the Strand. NBA players like Lamar Odom sporadically live in their houses here, along with surgeons, lawyers, b-list celebrities and the ocassional surfer whose managed to hang onto his property despite the huge hypergentrified upgrading of the housing stock during the last twenty years, as quaint cottages became displaced by cubic-footage-maximizing he-mansions lightly tamed by Spanish, Mediterranean and postmodernist impulses but highly tamed by tiny lots. Those at the top of the food chain just build across double-lots.

Anyway, the Strand is sweet. Families bike by, Tony Hawk might be skating by, doctors' wifes powerwalk by on their way to yoga class, but there's just enough random oddity about to keep it all interesting. And then there're those sunsets.

If you can make out the right half of the horizon, btw, you can just see the hint of purple jags under the clouds - those are the Santa Monica mountains. To the hard left on the horizon would be Catalina Island on a clear night.

Shown here in a free, downloadable iPhone wallpaper version, 8x10 archival metallic sunset for lamar odom prints are available for , shipping included. These are printed in limited editions of 50, so reserve yours today!

Just missed it tonight - just caught the crepuscular lighting hanging on the horizon.
