It's been a long while since I've said I'd post an update picture, but I've been very lazy about taking a picture of myself. This picture is one I took today when I went out for a bike in -40c weather, definitely not my most flattering picture but that's what happens 60% of your face has succumbed to the cold.

If you look closely, yes, that is frost on my right eyelashes.

playing around with a darkfield objective (100x na1.25 epiplan HD) and the Bertrand lens:

I figured I would add a pic or two of my self as well. Fairly new to the form. Received loads of help from a handful of very intelligent and helpful people.

This was my first time sea fishing. Not a bad catch! I can remember the weight be it was around 45lbs. Sea Bass. Tasted delicious!

there's one of me and the lady friend Hiking :)

And another of me in my Nomex race suit. I competed in one of those 24 hours of LeMons races. Basically an endurance race for a $500 car. hence the "Lemon". It was a blast!

Good to finally see the face of someone I've been helping. ;)
And you're driving a motorbike!
 
Actually the suit and helmet was for a "race car" That was the 24 hours of Lemons race. But I dabble a little with dirtbikes and what not. Really anything with an engine!
 
Ah, my bad. I did not recognize LeMons and obviously I'm prejudiced.
Is it similar to the french Le Mans?

Its very similar! Its called LeMons because it is still a 24 hour (sometimes 18 hour or so) endurance race but its done with a "lemon" car. Doesn't literally have to be a lemon but its generally a POS car that a team acquires and repairs for under $500 and is crazy enough to race this car on a track in an endurance race. Of course the safety aspects of the car are not limited by the $500 top line. Brakes safety restraints seats roll cage tires etc. Everything else must be less then $500 total. This includes the purchase of the vehicle. Its a lot of fun!

24 hours of LeMons If you interested in learning more
 
This is a more recent photo. I've grown my hair out a litte. My better half is still too shy to be seen, so I had to crop her beautiful face out of the picture. :frown:

EDIT: Kris, I see you've gotten rid of the spectacular 'stache. :mad:

Still in that lovebird phase huh?

But wow, just a little longer than I've even been alive. That's wonderful! My hot wife and I will have been together two years in August.

Ooh yeah it's the photo thread. Here we are.
