Saturday Statuary - Lighting Man

New uses for old royals …

Our lighting technician today is William the Conqueror,
high up on the wall of the Palace of Westminster, built by his son
but lit by someone with lesser æsthetic sensibilities.

Oh, and it's snowing here today. Fuck, fuck, fuckity fuck.
I hate winter.

He looks like he is about to give a press conference...about how to overcome the less aesthetic sensibilities of modern design and the aggravation of winter weather.

Hope the snow isn't too deep.

(Baby Boy Chaos has a rockin' pair of jammies! I asked cap't chaos to send a pic for you - all manner of guitars printed on them!)

"We're ready for your close-up, Mr. Conqueror."

Ms.M. I think the lighting rig is deliberately utilitarian to show that it is temporary and not something that they would be dumb enough to build into the fabric.

The snow yesterday came down thick and fast but was too wet to lay. Last night, however, we had another dusting and this morning the world is transformed, dammit. The fields are as white as week-old dog crap, and that's as poetic as I'll ever get about snow. I hate the stuff.
Hee hee.

Savannah, I want those jammies!
xoxoxoxo

He's been waiting almost a thousand years, Speedway, so I think he'll need some serious time in the make-up trailer before that close-up.
