I just shot this earlier tonight, coming home from a shoot. The Empire State Building was framed nicely, and was barely peeking out from the fog.

Shot stats:
Nikon D700
Nikkor 24-70mm
66mm
1/25
F/2.8
ISO 1600
As promised, here are the shots of the Kotobukiya Female Commander Shepard. I really enjoyed the fine detail in this figure. This was my first Kotobukiya, and I look forward to getting some more down the line. All photos were taken by me, with a Nikon D700, a Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 & a Nikkor 60mm Micro f/2.8 Macro lens and an SB-900 Flash.
Enjoy the Gallery! (more…)
Red One
It’s been a while since I posted one of these. Have been in a creative slump photography wise. Anyway, just going to post a very clean Mark IV Volkswagen Jetta GLI. I think the owner calls it ‘Red Sauce’. It indeed is saucy. I forget what he did to the car, but it is very nicely done.
The Beast
Dubbed the ‘Wildebeest’ by it’s owner, this Mini forced induced monster is indeed a beast. It’s not only turbo charged, but supercharged as well. The matte green wrapped mini copper churns out upwards of 350+ BHP. A lot of custom work was done through out the car to accomadate the power, and is the epitomy of a ‘pocket rocket’
Pork, the other white meat. It’s has to me at least a very transparent taste, and it absorbs flavour like no other. This is pretty much über bacon, pork belly, so good, so tasty so deliciously bad for you.
This was one of our entrees this past thanksgiving, and it was oh-so-delicious. Perfect compliment to the turkey.
Pork steam buns from Ippudo – NYC
In short, EPIC. I seriously do not have the expanded vocabulary to even come up with an adjective to describe on how good this is. All i have to say is if you are ever in NYC, you must give it a go. Oh, and their Ramen’s are also EPIC.

Chocolate Covered Onion
This is out there, and yes, the thought of onions and chocolate is not quite appealing, my buddy and I had to try this. It was very dissapointing. The chocolate crumbled off when you took a bite, and the skin was still on. I think if they used smaller onions where you can just pop it in your mouth whole would’ve worked better.
This shot was also included in Womensday.com’s online article about wierd chocolate covered foods. I think if it had bacon, it would be better.
Best way I can describe this is, if you bit an onion, and took a bite out of a Hershey chocolate bar.
This is also one of my most viewed shots on Flickr, and it’s gotten a lot ‘ew’ comments when I show them the photo.
