Holy Pause Button, Batman!

Some more pause screens from Batman: Arkham City.

Floor Faces

I realized I haven't been at my abstract photography in awhile, so I thought I'd take a couple of pictures of my bathroom floor that I thought I could make something of.

I saw hints of a face here, so I used Photoshop's paint bucket tool to fill in what lines I could, then I used the pencil to fill in the lines. 

 When I started filling in the lines here, at first I was picturing a vulture's head, but as I was connecting the segments, I realized it could also be a vole eating something.

I'm on Pinterest!

So now that I'm back from vacation, I thought I'd let everyone know I'm on Pinterest. I'll be showcasing my own stuff there, plus whatever other interesting things I find.

To start with, here's what you can do with that bratty Elf on the Shelf now that Christmas is over...

What I Did Over Thanksgiving

So yeah, I skipped a week, but that was so I could be offline (well, except for Netflix, on my sister's computer) for a while and soak in the beauty of nature. I went to Moab with my Dad and we spent time with my sister down there for Thanksgiving. Dad and I hiked through Arches National Park, the next day I hiked through Negro Bill's Canyon (NAACP-approved) by myself. Didn't make it all the way to the end since I had to meet up with my sister, but it was still very pretty.

Unfortunately not everyone does this.

Face Your Fears...

Here's another pic from my trip through Lehman Caves. Don't remember Arkham Asylum's Scarecrow being there, it must have been so scary, I blocked it from my memory.

Arkham Trailers

Since Batman: Arkham Knight is coming out soon, I thought we'd take a look through the history of the Arkham games.

Pause Screens are Cool

These "Pause" screenshots are from Batman: Arkham City. I like how they did away with the highlights and refined the details a bit.

Back From the Loony Bin!

Sorry to miss two posts, the last couple of weeks were rather crazy, but I'm getting back to a semblance of sanity. I've nearly been driven mad trying to get this batch of screenshots!

Anyway, I thought I'd pause for a bit to reflect on a black and white issue. I've been playing more of Batman: Arkham Asylum and I thought I'd show off some of the pictures I've taken with the game on Pause, which weren't easy to take, since I had to hit the screenshot key just at the right time to capture the fancy color filter, before the menu pops up. Batty, aren't they? (OK, I'll stop now.)

Arkham City Predator Challenge Loading Screens

The only two predator challenge screens I don't have yet are the police station and wonder tower final score images (which are different from their loading images).
