CWA Mini–sode: Merry Christmas Card Photos
~ Merry Christmas From Dr. Smith and Capt. Brown! ~
Capt. Brown tried to hold as still as possible as the timer counted down.
Tick tick tick…
“Why are you wearing that ridiculous hat, Zachary?” He finally asked.
“It’s my party hat,” Dr. Smith replied, “Now hold still, it should be going off any minute now.”
Tick tick tick…
Dr. Smith couldn’t stand it any longer. “Why are you wearing that ridiculous shirt, James?”
Tick tick tick…
“It’s my party shirt.”

CWA Mini–sode: Lumberjack
Capt. Brown was pleased with himself, he had carried this tree all the way back.
One–handed.
“Look, Zachary!” He said, grinning, “I got us a christmas tree!”
Dr. Smith looked at it. “They didn’t have a bigger one?” He said, smiling slightly.
Capt. Brown was momentarially confused, “I couldn’t have lifted a bigger one—Oh, you’re joking. ’They’ didn’t have anything to do with it, anyway. I chopped this one down.”
Dr. Smith examined it, it seemed to be your standard pine, very christmassy, ideal. Then he noticed Capt. Brown’s shirt.
“Where did you get that shirt, James?”
“It was first prize. I won it. It’s 100% Wool Tartan.”
“It’s certainly bright. What was the contest?”
“Carving Woodland Animals out of Tree–Trunks with Chainsaws. I made the cutest moose you’ve ever seen.”
“Let’s see it then.”
Capt. Brown fished a snapshot out of his pocket. “See?” He said, “It’s almost impossible to make legs if you don’t know the trick, no one else knew the trick. Detail work, that’s what sells these things.”
Dr. Smith examined the snapshot, it had been taken with an instant camera. The carving was in fact pretty cute. It was a little statue, carved of wood. He wondered how Capt. brown had made it with only a chainsaw, that seemed impossible. “Very skillful, James.” He said “I’m honestly impressed. But where is it?”
“They sold it.” Capt. Brown replied, “It was all for charity.” He added, in response to Dr. Smith’s questioning stare.
“What was the charity?”
“It was a good charity, I thought they were doing some really great work.”
“What was it?”
Capt. Brown seemed a little sheepish. “Razors for Woodsmen.” He said.
Good Night, Internet
I Spent a good long time messing around, trying to get the guy in the center right.
I Finally got him good enough, but the picture was boring.
And it was nighttime in the desert.
And I own a great camera, and a tripod.
So about twenty 30–15 second exposures later I got this one picture I liked, and one that was decent, and a picture of the moon I didn’t completely hate, which was weird for me.
I combined the two star pictures that weren’t terrible, {Blend modes!} added a vignette, and decided to be done because I didn’t hate it, and I knew that If I kept messing around with it I would ruin it.
So yeah. That’s supposed to be me, by the way. In the center there, behind the computer.
