Almost there
This photo was taken when my family went on a hike to the Cascades water fall in Catawba Virginia. This 2 mile walk should have taken no more than 40 minutes, but ended up taking two hours. My husband, middle grandchild and myself chose the hard rocky uphill trail by mistake when we wanted to walk up the smooth path. This photo comes after 120 minutes of uphill climbing over rocks, boulders, and on narrow legends. We had no cell phone service, it rained gently for a little bit and our feet slipped on muddy paths several times. It felt as if we would never make it but we continued our journey. We saw people on their way back down to the parking area at random intervals who gave us estimates of how much longer we had to go.

Miss Sinister Does It Yet Again With An Eye Popping Mad Max Inspired Shoot
I've talked about Miss Sinister before when I was completely blown away by her Star Wars inspired photo shoot. I've kept up with her work since then and I was excited when she hinted at a Mad Max inspired shoot. If there's anyone who can pull off that vibe, it's definitely Miss Sinister. Well, she definitely didn't disappoint. Teaming up with some great photographers, Miss Sinister lives up to her name with some truly fierce and amazing shots.

Meet The Real Life Bruce From 'Finding Nemo'
For a clown fish, he's not that funny. Well something is making this Lemon Shark smile. One lucky Florida photographer came face to face with all five rows of teeth, but it was only afterwards that he noticed this shark bore more than a slight resemblance to Finding Nemo's great white shark, Bruce.

Hating Every Picture I Take and Why That Means I Have to Keep Going
I started photography about seven months ago in June of 2016. It started out as something to help jazz up my articles for Movie Pilot or Now Loading. I figured if I get sent to press events that it would be nice if I took my own pictures instead of having to pull from the internet. I borrowed a camera for a press conference for Star Wars: The Force Awakens and I sort of fell in love with that particular camera.

Adding Height In Cosplay
Height. It’s one of those things you can’t really do much about in cosplay, isn’t it? You can turn into a purple alien, a lizard person, or a cyborg through the use of makeup, you can get your werewolf or elf on with prosthetics, and you can drive people up the wall with your Waluigi vocal imitation, but you can’t get from 5'6 to 5'11 without throwing on a pair of six-inch heels and going as the stripper version of your character.

Who's ready to get your cosplay on? There is literally no branch of cosplay more creative than steampunk - the possibilities for leather, gadgets, and guns over a puffy, lacy, frilly trunkful of ladylike goodness are almost unlimited. Here we'll take a look at some of the best-known ladies of steampunk and the artists who cosplay them. And when retrofuturism meets the Victorian Era in October, you're all set for a very steampunk Halloween. Get ready to take some skirts, goggles, wigs, gloves, boots, and a whole bunch of corsets to their maximum potential and rock the spookiest night of the year (or cosplay year round).
