This is what we call a target rich environment. I am sure that whatever I did to get into that situation seemed like a good idea at the time.

We're going to hold on to him by the nose and we're going to kick him in the ass, We're going to kick the hell out of him all the time and we're going to go through him like crap through a goose.

That's the Middle's QE2 wooden reviewing stand. It's built on a enclosed trailer. This is where their majesties and their highness keep their battlefield things at. If the thrones are at the battlefield they sit there as well.Kyrian wrote:Does anyone have any information on that amazing castle structure in the background?

Thursday was the busiest day of the war for me, and I now have for you over a thousand pictures from the Bridge, Belted, Unbelted, and Allied Champions battles here: http://ursus.smugmug.com/gallery/668173 ... 2203_Qoq9X
A few samples:
Hope you like them.
Thanks, as always, to all of you for providing such a wonderful photo op.

P.S. Friday (the Field battle) and several Atlantian events still remain on my "to do" list.

Thanks again Ursus. Does anyone know the young lady standing next to me with the heater shield?

Thanks for the pics.
I like the "Where's Waldo?" wide shots.
Found three I know in this one.

I think you meant this pic, Nissan:
And I have no answer to your question. I was watching him through a long range lens just wanting a "stride across the field" type shot, and then he breaks into this little dance. Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course...
Did you catch this one, Nissan? That looked liked it hurt!

Still trying to figure out whose spear I had... My axe broke earlier in the fight, I had to fix it that night.
There are quite a few shots, long distance, of my bridge. It's pretty cool to watch the battle unfold like that.

That little chick with the shield saved my life a few times and the lives of some of my buddies. She was flying all over the field.

That is Killian ( I think her new name is Mina?) from Atenveldt.

I can truly say that I am three times the size that she is, but she is three times the warrior that I am.

Mina, huh? Someone who sees her in meatspace needs to tell her she has earned serious wordfame. I looked for her after the fight, but she was gone.

Thanks to all of you for your patience, and my apologies for taking so long to post them.
Here are a few samples:

Ever since Duke Cuan pointed the two of you out to me at Gulf Wars, I have tried to keep an eye out for picture opportunities with both of you. My only regret is that I have yet to capture you together facing the camera, but I'll keep working on it.

I firmly believe that any man's finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all that he holds dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle - victorious.
