The kids did sleep a little. Not much, mind, but a little.
|
|
The Imperial Forces on Parade. |
|
More forces of evil. |
|
There were more stormtroopers here than in the actual
movies. |
|
More clustering of evil forces. What's funny is that if you
look closely, you'll see Frodo in there among the stormtroopers and
whatnot. |
|
The boy. |
|
Yet another orc. The buggers were all over the place.
|
|
Linc from the Nintendo game "Zelda". |
|
There were many elves attending this year. A couple were
good personal friends. Here's Miranda. |
|
Tom Swearingen carved this lovely walking stick. See more
of his work on his website. He
has many items for sale, and he does take commissions. |
|
My friend Athena as a lovely elf. I adore her dress. |
|
Another shot of Athena as an elf. |
|
Shannon is Miranda's sister, and another fine costumer.
|
|
Another pose of Shannon as an elf. |
|
A better picture of the interior (yes, that's the
interior) of the Marriot in Atlanta. Awesome place. |
|
My friend shrift. |
|
Another picture of shrift. |
|
And here's my friend Shannon in her 'mundane' clothes.
|
|
And another picture of Shannon. Yeah, we all got pretty
tired and punchy after a while, but we had fun! |
|
On the way home. Proof that yes, I was there! A clearer
version of this picture is here,
but the composition isn't nearly as cool. |
|
Ellen all buckled safe. |
|
Ian disses the paparazzi. The little snot. |
|
Tom's turn to drive. You know, he attended more panels than
the rest of us. |
|
A boring shot of I-85, although to me the green and the
trees still look kind of exotic. |
