This morning I had a work call-out, and when I say "this morning" I actually mean at 3am. I was completely unaware until today that Sunday morning had such a thing as this "3am" contraption. Two hours later I arrived home and there seemed very little point in going back to bed, so I took the opportunity to plug myself into the mains and gently recharge what little remained of my battery.
I actually had the idea for this shot yesterday, while listening to Muse's song "Plug in Baby"...little did I know how appropriate it would be for today. This is also the first time I've attempted a shot with this lighting...quite liking it...
I am a confirmed and certifiable nutbar with a penchant for skulls, bones, blood, guts, fire and anything slightly peculiar and mostly bizarre. I also...
Totally fav... Love the concept - and your eye is creeping me out :). And indeed... I'm with you... As far as Ian concerned, 3o'clock comes but once a day...
I like this Graeme - this is the nearest to normal I've seen you look for a while. There are two 3 o'clocks in my day becasuse 3 am is the time I normally go to bed!
@ceilidh@northy LOL, very funny @vignouse thanks very much, under normal circumstance I would have no idea what to do with two 3's! @gigiflower I know...I work for BOC - industrial, scientific and medical gases, welding and engineering equipment and safety. So windswept and exotic... @livvy thanks very much :)
@daneau LOL, thanks very much - it may be disappointing to know, but I'm drug free...not sure what that says about my mind... @lynnz Thank you very much, and for the fav!
@peter_1966 Thanks, I believe it would be pulling it out as I removed the pins then stuck it to my head using double sided tape...sorry to spoil the magic ;) @annied Thanks very much :) @beschnett Thank you very much @yaorenliu Well...I'm in the North Island too, so that would explain why I took so long to charge, there must be more than one of us plugged in ;) Thanks very much too...
Love the lighting! I was thinking it looked Borgish too! The red eye looks cool....but what I really want to know is how you get that one eyebrow to raise up like that?? I never wake up at 3 am but sometimes I do go to bed at 3 am (a night owl)!!
Love the lighting in this. And the idea. The eye is discomfiting. 3 AM? I'd just stay up..way too often that's abut when I head to bed. Last night I got caught in a genealogical conundrum & was up until 4:17 AM.
@harbie thanks very much...the eyebrow thing...hmmm, just a thing that my eyebrow seems to be able to do @mukeshpapd thank you very much @johenn Never mind my eye, a genealogical conundrum sounds more than discomfiting - but thanks a bunch :) @shezza thanks very much
Brillant. Totally brilliant. Your eye is fabulous..... 3am....seeing it twice too much at the moment but that's small people who have too few teeth for you. Never got it so much bother for something that falls out a few years later....
@newbank yep, been through the teeth thing too...the plug is from a now broken down appliance that we had when we lived in the UK, I took the pins out and used double sided tape to stick it to my head like the goober that I am! @jules13 thank you very much
Graeme i am absolutely, undoubtedly, uncontrollably, unforgivably concerned that in reading all the replies not one person mentioned Plug in baby..... What a killer song, a mate and i saw them play two years ago on one of their crazy tours...
Oh and nice photo ;-)
@gardencat Thanks - it just summed up the way I felt @jess1204 Thanks you very much, and for the fav - might have to do a bit more of it myself once I get the current jumble of ideas out my head! @georgiat Thank you very much
@vignouse thanks very much, under normal circumstance I would have no idea what to do with two 3's!
@gigiflower I know...I work for BOC - industrial, scientific and medical gases, welding and engineering equipment and safety. So windswept and exotic...
