Re: Summer 2010 Photo Contest
Looking good Elegost! There's a kind of forlorn lonliness that comes through that perfectly expresses what it must be like to keep a solitary vigil.

You pegged that exactly, Kaelin! He looks very weary there, as if he has been in the Wild for a bit too long. Great shot, again!kaelln wrote:Looking good Elegost! There's a kind of forlorn lonliness that comes through that perfectly expresses what it must be like to keep a solitary vigil.

If I can dig it out, I've got a grand total of ONE to post. The others caught too many modern things in the shot. Let me see if I can find my "Last thing. . . " shot.
Ichthean Forge (pronounced Ick thee an). Maker of knives, and primitive camping gear.

Re: Summer 2010 Photo Contest
Okay, I managed to get a few taken last weekend. No comment about having snuck various weapons into various state parks in order to do so...
1) In The Shire:
"Watching the Road" -- High res version
2) The Last Defender of Sarn Ford:
"Final Stand" -- High res version
3) Look To The Black Ships:
"Pelagir" -- High res version
4) The Last Think They'll Ever See:
"Sneak Attack" -- High res version
5) The High Seat of Amon Hen
"Hill of the Eye" -- High res version
And here's my map: http://xa1.xanga.com/17cf615ad073327177 ... 761838.jpg

Very nice.
This state is enamored of mandatory prison sentences. I tread carefully around here. 'Nuff said on that score.

Outstanding pics, Chris! Love the hi-rez versions, especially the Shire pic.

Likin' the maille; keep wearing it! You look a positive member of the grey company, with hood cast over helm and head, my good sir.
I must say, some of my favorite forum pics ever have come out of these contests...glad y'all are still going at it! I love your Sarn Ford pic...and I think I need to make a hooded cowl now, for when I don't wanna lug around a cloak during the hot summer months (of course, right as I've run out of hot summer months. I'm always just a tad behind, it seems...'tis my curse.)
