h._p. Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 We were trundling through traffic in an odd corner of Swindon when these characters appeared out of a crowd on the pavement. I had the M3 on my lap so I pre-focussed the Summicron at 6 feet, f11 on the aperture ring and 1/125 on the shutter. He pointed his gun at me and I pointed the camera at him. They must have enjoyed the experience because they posed for several shots. It's not great art but it's a reminder of an amusing incident.<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Smith Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 Don't worry: Imperial Stormtroopers can never hit anything anyway. Boba Fett is a little better in his accuracy perhaps.... Robin Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen Herbert Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 It's Darth Vader, Harvey. His coming to get you, i told you to behave yourself! His going to turn you into a isotope.

roger c Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 Harvey - did you know the guy who runs Skywalker's fancy dress shop in Swindon has actually changed his name by deed poll to "Luke Skywalker"? And we thought the Americans were a bit mad...;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew_c2 Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 That's not a blaster in Fett's hand-- that's a Sony F717! Noooooooo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h._p. Posted September 29, 2003 Author Share Posted September 29, 2003 I didn't know that, Roger, but after four years in Swindon I will, without any doubts, believe anything! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete_loshin3 Posted September 30, 2003 Share Posted September 30, 2003 Oh yeah. This one was taken either with a Yashica T4 or an Olympus XA (maybe even an Olympus Stylus original).<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen Herbert Posted September 30, 2003 Share Posted September 30, 2003 Brad, another great shot, even better than first alien. Hmm...there's a funny looking bloke at the door. Looks like some sort of alien...don't fancy answering it. "Harvey, there's a bloke at the door, his asking for you." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
