SPACE INVADERS.. (kind of..)

I was lucky enough to take some time off over Christmas..  So what does a photographer do with time off ?  Go out in the middle of the night with some friends & take some photos of course!  I can’t help it..  I am addicted..   It’s who I am..  But I also call myself a photographer because photography is what I like do..

I also like music, mountain biking, & going to the movies..  & I really like dark chocolate TimTams.. & Guinness

So yes, Got a call from friends Juanita & Denise (excellento photographers), proposing a dash-for-cash overnighter at the beach for some late night, pitch-black, no moon photography.  *insert high fives & air punches*  Tripods + candles + torch + LEDs + top hats + cloak of invisibilty + broomstick + glowsticks + red wine = mission accomplished !

yes, that IS a real shooting star.. (in the sky.. kinda on the leftish.. above the red alien ship)

It was seriously great to hang out with friends & play around like camera nerds..  I would have liked a little ambient moonlight kicker as well but hey, red wine & laughter cures all..  Thanks Juanita & Denise, you guys are RAD !    :D
