Ok I left a hint for you in the other thread, another hint ...

Anthony Burgess novel.

Think Mechanical + Organic.

[Neuro]

Only have small hands because they are all midgets! How else do they fit in those damn game consessions(booths)?

[Mynock]

Carnies, they have small hands and smell of cabbage.
oh yeah and corn. that should be 3 then

[morea]

apparently this one wasn't as obvious, so the kids taped a sign to her to let people know what she was. Unfortunately, it was written in pen, so nobody could read it anyway. :D

I got it in the other thread, phew.

[EC]

Ok it's kinda freaking me out too, I'll probably change it. Or not.

BTW -- these are rockin' morea.

[EC]

Corn. Oh corn.

Did I ever tell you about how I went to college in the middle of a corn field? I left the lyrics to the song we wrote about it on DZine's blog ... let's just say the title was, "Corn."

Corn corn corn. It really scares me too.

[Mynock]

How are you liking your new power shot morea?

[Neuro]

Oh boy guys! We found corn torture devices. It's great!!! Morea even got some shots of them so we can build our own. They used to have them in the old days but then corn tried to eliminate them. Guess what, we found them!!

[Mynock]

the plot thickens or the creamed corn thickens

[morea]

it is good so far Mynock - still trying to get used to some of the settings, but then there is a learning curve on any new toy. :p

I need a tripod pretty bad if I want to take better night shots! People look at me like I am crazy when I flop down on the ground to steady my camera.

BTW- coming home smelling like cows freaks out the cats. :D

[Neuro]

and me!

I second that, I was so anxious I was reading up on it for the whole week before, and as soon as I got it *poof* I felt like a camera noob. It's been years since I've been behind a camera, and never behind a digital of this quality.

[morea]

oh yeah! Let me post the medieval corn torture devices. I documented them on film... er, pixels, so people would believe.

Mankind has been after the alien menace for years. But watch what you say - the enemy has ears!

[morea]

This is a corn sheller:

[Mynock]

I can't look

[morea]

lol!

[Neuro]

Scary stuff!!! I have no idea how the hell any of it work but it's damn scary!!

[morea]

it was fun. It was also the first chance I had to try out the new camera, and while there is still obviously a LOT to learn (all of the controls for this camera are in bizarre places, lol) I feel more comfortable with it now.

[jimintn]

great pics morea!

[Neuro]

Here are some pictures that I took last night.

[Neuro]
