JCCC4 Day 6: All the feels.

Posted by on March 10, 2014 No comments

_DSC3131This is going to (probably) be my last posting about JoCoCruiseCrazy 4 as these are the last of the photos to be processed.

Day 6 was a hugely emotional day as it was the last of the cruise and probably the last we would see many of the new and old friends we have seen on the ship.  I wanted to make sure I took as many “Monkey Shots” as I could so that I would have photos of everyone!  Hugs were given, tears were has and some of you have impacted this monkeys life more than you know.

Can’t wait to see you all again next year.

ON TO THE PHOTOS!!!!

So, here are all the links you will ever need:

Want to give me money? Here’s How!
If you like the photos, and you want to provide me with any sort of compensation, please do! I can accept payments through Square or Google wallet very easily.  Both of these options provide you the ability to send money via E-mail address (spetrucelli@gmail.com).  Please feel free to send along whatever amount you feel comfortable with (even if it’s 0.00) Now with added Square Market!!  http://mkt.com/steve-petrucelli

Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made. You may do so in any reasonable manner, but not in any way that suggests the licensor endorses you or your use.
NonCommercial — You may not use the material for commercial purposes.
NoDerivatives — If you remix, transform, or build upon the material, you may not distribute the modified material.

FACEBOOK QUESTIONS
A lot of folks have asked about my “Facebook Ban” Just know, it’s not so much a BAN as an advisement.  Facebook has some really wimpy rules when it comes to Photographers rights.  Also, Facebook compresses the hell out of photos and makes them look like crap.  THAT BEING SAID. If you Really really really want to set a photo as a profile picture or share it with someone via facebook, I won’t stop you or sue you or anything. (But I reserve the right to say “Tsk Tsk” to you in person.)

JCCC4 Day 4 and 5! Sooo Many fezzs!!

_DSC2351Day 4 wasn’t a huge process seing as how most of the photos were about Artemis, and I already did those.  (Did I post about them? Now I forget.)

ANYWAYS, Day 5 was the all important FEZ Night! (It has a much longer name, but I am tired and have been staring at fezzes all day.)

As per usual, here at the LINKS:

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Do not download the photos and then upload them somewhere else (like Facebook).  FB kills the photos with compression and you lose the attribution.  Instead, feel free to LINK to the photos on my gallery or on Flickr.

JoCoCruiseCrazy4 – Yeah, that happened!

I had the opportunity to spend 6 amazing days with 850 people who understand, love, enjoy, care, and appreciate everything about geekdom and nerdom.  I can’t tell you all the feels that well up inside every time I think about all the people I met on the cruise.

I know that some people will say “It’s just a convention, but on a boat” or “It’s just hanging out with friends while you cruise” but really it’s that times 10000.  Every room you go into there is a SeaMonkey doing something they love to do.  No one judges, everyone is welcome.

Each year the official talent puts on an amazing show with amazing events that scatter across the week. You go for this show, but you stay for the Shadow Cruise.  The Shadow cruise is all the events that all of the attendees build around the official events.  We have people who are artists from every field who put up shows, exhibits, classes, and art to share with everyone else.  In many cases, it’s a fan run show that has some other stuff that the official people do.  And it’s THAT that makes the cruise special.

This year I brought my own talent and tried to make it available to folks by doing what I called the “Humble Indie Photographer Bundle”.  This meant that I made myself available for folks to have their picture taken anywhere at any time.  Lots of people took me up on it and, after sorting, I have close to 1000 pictures to process to show for it.  In payment I accepted everything from a “Hey thanks!” to drinks, to a couple bucks.  All of the photos will be posted to Flickr under a Creative Commons licence for everyone to see.

If you know I took a picture of you, and you want to provide me with anything in payment, Please wait until the photos are up! (You never know, they could look like crap!) I’ll be working throughout the week on getting them up as fast as possible and then post here when they are all done.

Thanks again for making my cruise experience another for the memory banks!

Just got done with the concert!  It was amazing, as per usual.  I took a TON of pictures.  Once I go through them and polish them up I will have them uploaded.  Should be sometime this weekend.  Zoo planned for tomorrow,  I guess all the events this weekend will make up for not really doing any shooting this last week!  

Sleep now…..
