greenpea needs a new avatar

[greenpea]

Nikolai, Cristina, Bender, Dave, April, Ann (and others who were with the plan-B team)...

In Montana, on the way to East Glacier, I gladly jumped around like a crazy roadside attraction monkey boy so you could have an opportunity to take some action shots. I risked a broken leg, a pulled groin, almost jumping on Nikolai's head, and the possibility of rolling down the hill into a barbwire fence. Now I want to see those pictures (and hopefully one of you will donate a picture to the "greenpea needs a new avatar" cause).

I'll just sit back and enjoy my coffee while I wait for you all to start posting the pictures.

(I think mike took this picture; it was the only picture in my camera of me).

:rofl

I saw Nikolai's shots and wondered if you'd just found a secret stash of extra strong St Mary's coffee.

I'm disappointed that I couldn't bring my clone so I could shoot with the Plan B group as well. :rolleyes

Nikolai has the right idea (but I know you have more)...

But just to be a little more clear to those who weren't there: Nikolai, Christina and April (and other too I think) took a bunch of pictures of me jumping around off of a jersey barier on the side of the road (most of which I don't think have been posted to dgrin yet). They kept having me "do it agian", but the unwritten and un-enforcable agreement between me ("the model") and them ("the photographers") was I get to see these pics posted on dgrin and hopefully get to use one of the more interesting ones for an avatar. :D

Cropped, it has potential I think:

Holy Crap! I have my own gallery on PhotoSoCal! Thanks Nikolai, I was honestly hoping to get to see some of the crazier ones but 4 pages worth! I don't think there has been this many pictures taken me in the previous 10 years. :rofl

Thanks! I like. I feel like I should be wearing a cape in that shot. :D

I seriously need to make it to one of these things. Looks like a total blast with a bunch of like-minded lunatics. Though I think there should be rationing of caffeine to some members...

It was on this trip that I learned about the "ocho" (8-shot latte). :huh

I have a few that should be animated.

Any one want to try?

Haha, that one is great! That's kinda what I was going for, but after I had fixed my exposure :doh people walked onto the other side of the barrier and messe up the visual. I edited the overexposed ones and they look like cartoons.....

I did mine in Image Ready. Adobe has horrible directions...but once you figure it out it's quite easy.

I do! :ear:ear:ear:ear

I have my avatar, at least until Nikolai posts his animation tutorial (or David_S85 posts his greenpea vs. the deer pic)...

Thanks for the avatar Nikolai.
