Subject: Target Practice on Cowden Hill. Sun Jan 22, 2023 12:43 pm
Action Man and a solider are at the military science laboratory listening to a military scientist.
“Men, today we are sending you out to Cowden Hill where you will be taking part in a target practice exercise. Instead running around targeting each other you will both be sharing this green military robot that you will fire paint balls at. Simple, the winner is who gets more of their coloured paint ball splats on this robot. You two won’t be the first to go. The previous paint ball marks won’t be cleaned from the first group. The robot is not hurt by this practice. He seems to enjoy it.”
Action Man and the solider are out on Cowden Hill doing their target practice.
It’s neck a neck with four orange and four blue splats.
The robot twists to his right not noticing Action Man.
The robot passes the two snipers and continues up the hill.
The robot reaches the hill top and surrenders to signal the stop of their target practice.
Outside pictures where taken by Ivan. Set ups done by my dad.

A picturesque series of outdoor photos with a lovely sense of depth and distance to them. The snow-dusted hills in the distant background look nice.
Who won the target competition? Which colour team?

Great photos and story.
Like Dave, I'm wondering who won. At first I saw the blue spot, but then noticed that there was a yellow and red spot on his head as well. Any of them could be the "kill" shot.

Thanks for your comments about the view. We have to confess that the last photo was edited by Ivan to place the snowy mountain tops behind the robot. Although both shots were actually taken on top of the hill. Each had three hits at the front and…….. two hits at the back so it was a draw between Action Man and the soldier.

Thanks Daryl. I’m pleased that you thought that they were great photos and story. Each had three hits at the front and…….. two hits at the back so it was a draw between Action Man and the soldier.

Then a re-match is called for! Only with more robots, and the robots should also be armed with paintball weapons!
The image editing was seamless! Nicely composited image!
