Jim’s
doing some photoshooting session for a magazine (one of his duties as
captain is to do a little PR now and then, mostly when the Empire orders
him), so here you have, the first shot of Captain Kirk chilling out at
the former-Kirk’s farm, with one his favorite activities: bonding with
horses. :D In our mirror universe, Jim had a childhood different from
his J.J.Abrams counterpart (first of all, George hadn’t died the day of
Jim’s birth). During childhood, Jim bonded with grandpa Tiberius’
horses, especially with a wonderful Friesian named Goliath, to the point
that he was almost tempted to inherit grandpa’s business in breeding
horses. Now, I’m fairly aware the horse in the photo is nowhere a
Fresian, so Jim’s not posing with Goliath or his sons.
Tec stuffs (aka Behind The Manip) I feel the need to explain the odd coloring. Have you ever seen a
vintage postcard, which images were originally shot in b&w to then
be hand-colored? Well, I started trolling playing a bit just for
fun with colors (especially to see if I could improve the low quality of
the original image) and I loved how it turned out, so I decided to keep
it. I can see that, two centuries from now, some vintage (ancient) filter could be used just for an original touch to the shots. Do not ask me how I managed to partially hide the fact the original model was mildly haired on chest and belly…
