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.
Selfie of a smiling man in a red hooded jacket, with frost and ice crusting his beard and mouth area, standing on snowy ground beside a frozen river with buildings and steam in the background.


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

Nice, Kris!

Thanks! And yes, it was a bit too cold, but its even colder today.
 
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:

Close-up photo of a smiling man with short dark hair, a mustache and a goatee, wearing a dark shirt, in front of a window with blinds.
EDIT: Kris, I see you've gotten rid of the spectacular 'stache. :mad:
 
WOOT! You two make a lovely couple! Congratulations!

Congrats O' Master of the forum.

My wife and I have been married since 1975, and I'm thinking of keeping her.

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.

Thanks. We've known each other since we were in 6th grade.

Greg, again, congrats. Marriage is awesome. Don't let anybody tell you otherwise!
