Seriously, Tauntaun.

So, yeah, once again ventured out without a tauntaun. Foolhardy if you ask me. The tricky thing about photographing a winter wonderland isn't making your way through the snow, which is often difficult, it's actually in ruining your own shot. You see a shot, but once you walk across it the shot changes, so yeah, challenging. Still, if it wasn't challenging, would it be worth it? Yeah, I didn't think so. Now, where's that tauntaun?

Made it Past the First Marker

I'm honestly not worried about a tauntaun not making it past the first marker, I mostly figure that it would be just as distracted by shiny objects as I am.

And I imagine it would just as easily be distracted by non-shiny, shadowy objects as well.

Hope you're staying warm, cause I am still lacking a tauntaun that could potentially keep you warm on a cold winter night.

I'm A Banana!

I'm actually not, but if you've seen the work of animator Don Hertzfeldt, you would be rolling on the floor laughing, or "ROLF" as the kids say around the interwebs these days.

Don was great to meet and it was a wonderful opportunity to shoot "An Evening with Don Hertzfeldt" and the subsequent "Embarrassing Live On Stage Interview" was, though live, was far from embarrassing. For me at least. I'm not sure about Don. Maybe. Anyway, Don's a real fun guy. He'll sign just about anything.
