Waiting for the next photo shoot...

I hate swotting. :mad: I'm being encouraged to study loads and loads of information about 6-Sigma and Lean 6-Sigma for a possible job interview. I wish they'll just let me see their process machineries and let me know how to operate them. Being old, I find it hard to absorb all these stuff right now. Maybe because I don't find them interesting or fun to study compared to photography. :D Anyway, I decided to take a 30-minute break and made me a cup of coffee. While browsing the CiC posts, I looked at my cabinet and I "saw" my "models" looking at me as if they're saying "Hey, photographer, don't we have some new photo shoot? We're bored to death here." :D :p So here's my tribute to them for being bored. Thank you very much for viewing. Hehehe.

Nikon D70, 50mm, ISO 400, f/8 at 0.4 second.

Willie,

I feel your pain, man... I'm in the same boat... sorta.

Anyway, I like this shot - a weird twist of candid and posed that mixes well. That clone trooper definitely appears to be giving you a bit of attitude.

Another shot before I pick up the kids from school. One got tired, the rest got jealous so they decided to pose, too. Hahaha! Thanks for the encouragement, Bill. :)

Willie......they're....they're....oh, my gosh! They're alive!!! That is so funny! The little guys look pretty eager to be part of the action like the big guys.:rolleyes:

(Thanks, Bro, I badly needed some humour, today!:))

Thanks, Katy. I also badly needed some humour in my life right now. :o

Makes me smile. I can remember using the same excuses to take a break from study. Now I no longer do that. Make the excuses I mean. I take all the breaks I want with no excuses required...

Thanks, Joe. Just needed some laugh so I played with my "models" for a while. Hahaha.

First thought on seeing that was: "Jiro's Silent Family - a portrait"

Willie, you have a special talent, and it gives each one of them a voice. Great work, once again.

BTW: Have your kids ever "borrowed them back", and then held them for ransom? :eek:

Thanks, Mike. You're very generous with your nice comments. :p Regarding the toys, the legos are my kids'. Mine are the clone trooper and the artists' mannequin. I personally both them for a special purpose - to be my models. Hehehe. :rolleyes:

Love this concept. Little boys & little girls should never stop playing with toys; these little people are part of us. You don't fool me Willie!

It's comedy, but you can feel the tears behind it.
