The typical nighttime photo is equipped with a flash to brighten things up, or with background exposures using man-made light from our streets or houses so we can see the subject of the photo. The big dark sky above us at night seems to offer little that we can see or photograph in most places, but that's not the case in Siren. Living in the small, old-fashioned town of Siren, candles are used alongside lightbulbs and electricity. Phones are usually used for contacting family and friends outside the town, since everyone living there seems to enjoy face to face speaking more than texting. This means light pollution is low and the night sky is beautiful. Perfect for Astrophotography. There is a whole world- a whole universe of opportunity for photos. Astrophotos don't require billions of dollars or a ride in a Space Shuttle, they just require a nice camera and a cloudless night. For Tucker... the rotation of earth making the stars move is a bit of a challenge since he often has to retake photos, which means he has to change things up. He doesn't mind since the slow, new photography options make up for it. Tucker was a natural with a camera. He got the hang of adjusting the settings and finding the best ones very quickly, and he already had the patience.
Star-Trail images, ones captured that give stars long trails because of the movement on the axis, are some of Tucker's favorites to get. They look abstract in a way, and certainly wouldn't seem real if you were unaware of the process of how these images came to be. Any background is instantly cool with them, you can have beautiful tree silhouette, a sunset over an ocean, a mountain range, or a plain concrete building- it'll look cool! Thats why Tucker is always happy, the most patient, and super careful when getting these images. Tucker built a "Barn Door" mount early in his days of experimenting for capturing good still images, and is always improving it to further boost the quality of his photos.
Tucker is usually very serious with his hobby, and spends his time alone taking pictures. He doesn't usually mess around, but you know... everyone has those few times where you already have something accomplished and don't need to do it again or finished their work early, so you mess around. Well, Tucker amuses himself (during the times he doesn't want to get more sleep) by zooming in as far has he can on star clusters and nebulae and make them have conversation, this... happens mostly when he is going crazy from sleep deprivation. For example, he once zoomed in to one star an said in a british accent "Fred Fred Fred Fred Fred Fred Fred," then to another, "what is it, Jerry?" Then back to the first: "So, Jupiter came down to Earth one day and helped these two criminals plan this bank robbery. Anyway, so the robbers both got caught and after the judge sentenced the two earthlings to fifteen years behind bars, Jupiter was a bit shocked as he also was arrested and got a ten year sentence himself. “But your honour. I didn’t even take part in the robbery!” said Jupiter. “Well, you didn't rob the bank” replied the judge. There was a short pause. “But you did help them Planet!”"
Tucker is most definitely not one to pull pranks. He isn't the most social of viscets, and prefers being alone, though he has nothing against being with others. However, there is a reason he doesn't pull pranks...
April 1st, 1am: Tucker sat up and looked towards his roommate, Gray. He got out of bed and moved silently through the halls and creeped downstairs, which he already prepped with moving pads the night before. He surveyed the area, and finalized his plan. One-by-one, Tucker removed every clock, lamp, and decoration out of the room, and set them carefully outside on the sturdy wooden deck. He then gently pushed out every piece of furniture onto the deck until the entire living room and most the kitchen was empty. He sat on the bare floor and smiled at his accomplishment. The inside was now out. Tucker glanced around, and moved over the final touches. He was satisfied with what he did, it looked like someone robbed them, he set things to look like they had been knocked over and closed the drapes so Gray couldn't see the furniture which was right outside.
April 1st, 2:30am: Tucker crawled into bed, careful not to disturb Gray. He got comfortable and quickly fell back asleep.
April 1st, 6am: Gray shook Tucker as hard as she could. He jumped awake in confusion, and quickly hid a smile as he knew she saw what happened.
"Tucker! We've been robbed! Ohhhhh! I didn't think I locked the front door, I should have checked again!" Gray started crying, and moped over to her own bed. She turned her back towards Tucker and opened her window. "At least it is raining, I like the rain." She curled up into a ball.
Tucker bolted up and threw his covers onto his bed. Thoughts raced. "I didn't check the weather! Ahhh everything is going to be drenched! It's all probably soaked and soggy!" Tucker raced down the stairs as quickly as he could. Gray got up and followed behind him. Tucker skid to a stop in sudden confusion as he saw the living room completely in tact and cleaner than ever. "Your attempt at fooling me was cute, but try to be a bit more sneaky next time." Gray said with the biggest grin on her face.
1) A dark grey, near black, felt fedora with a royal purple under lining. Two brown bird feathers, thought to be from a hawk, are stuck into the black ribbon lining. Tucker wears this hat to parties, events, and just casualty strolls. He is careful not to dirty it up, and tends to leave it behind when he is out for his nighttime activities.
2) A smooth, thin iron chain that holds a small silver arrow pendant, a tiny pearl heart, and a dark purple Charoite dragon-wing shaped pendant. Tucker holds a special reason to each pendant, but only selectively tells others of the meanings. He wears this necklace a lot, and when he doesnt, it has a beautiful, intricately designed box that it can comfortably be kept it.
