Today’s game is some more Halo: Reach. With our new friend joining us we did some more games. Namely starting off with Capture the Flag on Blood Gulch. Me and one of my friends on my team managed to sneak in the back of the enemy base with the teleporter and grab the flag while they were distracted. We snuck around the top of the ridge and he covered me with the Sniper Rifle. It was a really profound moment of teamwork for me which is what makes me love this game so much. It felt like we were on the same wavelength for that brief time.

With Blood Gulch I also wanted to mention how I love the warm color pallet. Especially if you’re in the red team it’s like camouflage sort of.

I also was playing around with Dark table and made this edit to see what I could do with a JPEG (I normally work with RAWs in editing software). I don’t think editing will be standard for my posts, but I did want to share this one.

We also continued the campaign a little. We had more than 4 though, and initially I thought we could get upwards of 8 players through the Alpha Ring Mod, turns out though I was wrong (partly) and that’s only Local from what I understood, which is why we made the switch to multiplayer, so everyone could join.

Tomorrow I think I’m gonna sit down and try to play some more FF, as Halo I think after needing to reinstall needs some more config. Namely the AA seems a little worse than before. I don’t know if that’s an issue with the game or my setup though. I’ll have to look into it.

Just wanted to say I really like that first screenshot. Something about the angle, the colors, and even the poses, it looks very cool.

Thank you! I’ve been taking classes on Photography to make these better so I’ve been trying to get more expressive and creative with them. For example today’s were all in a portrait orientation
