Welcome to my Firefly Panels page. There are over 300 photos on this page, so enjoy! Since I was getting used to a new digital camera, the photos from Panel 1 weren't all that good, but I think I improved on the other 2 panels. Besides being a fan of the show, I did take a lot of photos to experiment with not only the zoom, but the other shooting modes, thus the black/white and sepia photos as well.

The Firefly panel was excellent. Nate Fillion, Jewel Staite and Adam Baldwin were all just really rambunctious and having a good time. The room the panel was held in was simply too small for all the Browncoats that wanted to see this panel, people were turned away 30 minutes before the start of the panel. Nate does this hilarious butchering of the cast members' names in "movie trailer voice" fashion. You simply have to hear it in person because it's really funny. BTW, April 22, 2005 is the release date for "Serenity".
I attended Day 2's Firefly panel, and I got to a second row seat, and once again, Nate, Jewel and Adam killed the audience with their comraderie and stories and bagging on each other. Also, Peter David got the entire audience in on a gag for Jewel to get back at Nate for flipping her the bird on the Firefly DVD (I think, blooper reel, perhaps). For the first question, Peter David had the entire audience flip Nate a collective bird, and Nate was shocked and bemused by the participation of Jewel's revenge. It was sweet. The hour flew by, and not much was a repeat of Friday's panel, so that was very good, indeed.
I got to the 3rd and final Firefly panel a little late, so my seat wasn't as good, but with the 10X zoom, it didn't much matter. This panel was only with Nate and Jewel, as Adam had to leave early, but they entertained the large crowd with ease and aplomb, and the jokes and laughs were flying all over the room at rapid-fire pace in spots. Sadly, in order to do the Firefly movie, Universal doesn't get to make a TV show out of the property, unless things change between Universal and Fox w/r/t the Firefly property. For a good while, each person who asked a question got nifty prizes, like continuity polaroids from the Firefly set of shooting, and the money used on Firefly, and Jewel even gave away a prop comm button. Anyhow, if you ever get to see any of the Firefly cast at a convention, I heartily recommend their panels, you won't be disappointed.
Feel free to email me.
If you'd like me to identify you in any of my photos, I'd be glad to do so.
