Picture of the moment: Invaders

One of the vendors at Hempfest this year was selling a variety of figurines made entirely out of old engine parts. I was quite fascinated with this and made arrangements to meet with him in Olympia someday to do a shoot with his creations. Most of them were from movies (Predator, Alien, Star Wars, etc) but he also had a couple of really neat free form creations.

I intentionally let the white background get burnt out on this photo because I really like the “floating in a white void” look for shots like this. It really helps take away a frame of reference and hide the size of the creations.
