So these are the last of them, except a coupla skate sequences… This was fun. And now, I’ve got a regular job, I’m going to be boring, but the good news is it’s at least interesting work… learning a new programming language, plus a library or two, plus a new super complicated framework… all marketable skills, things I can use to get a job telecommuting from anywhere. <br /><br /><span class=”caption” >”hey guys, let’s go get food and make a big brunch.”</span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/the_morning_after…/1070/0072.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” >Made their money back, at least. </span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/the_morning_after…/1070/0073.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” >Feast in preparation.

So, there’s a lot of photos from last saturday, and rather than split it up into three or four posts, I’m just going to post this handy flickr gallery and call it a day. It was really epic. Like wow.

I was going to just be lazy and post the photos to flickr and be done, but some of these need captions and comments and snarkiness. Also, I think more people will see them this way. These are split into three posts, so as not to hurt your page load time and my bandwidth.<br /><br />Oh yeah, a technical note- these pictures wouldn’t have been possible without clever deployment of the on camera flash and a little reflector to bounce it off of the ceiling/walls.
