Warning: Below the row of asterisks my description goes off topic from the actual photograph and then ties back in to Orangutans. So, if you don't want to read about something personal of mine, then don't read below here.

Inji is a true marvel. Even through thick glass or Plexiglas, whatever it is, there is some definite communication going on. She fascinates me.
Shortly after posting this and getting a comment on it, I wrote this about it in my comments. I'm going to also post it up here in the description box, and let what wasn't a picture with stories, become a picture with stories.
The little story part here won't make much sense unless you read the comments:
I also was assaulted, but not for taking pictures. I have a set here about it, called, "Squeamish? Then don't look". A neighbor woman was on meth and alcohol and viciously bit me on my face, while she had me on the ground and pinned down. It was horrifying. It took her 3 years to pay off my $35 claim for new frames for my glasses. I didn't even ask for new lenses. She was ordered to pay for some mental health counseling for me, but since she showed up for the sentencing hearing positive for drugs and pregnant, I doubt she could get a job to pay for that yet. (I got some therapy already, but I don't know if she has reimbursed the Crime Victim's Assistance Program yet). She got thousands of other dollars in fines (but the county gets those, not me) and a pretty cushy amount of jail time (I think) and treatment program. Before I knew her, she had already been through treatment programs at least twice, and did drunk driving and endangering a minor within a few weeks of getting out of those. This woman should NOT be free, but unless she has committed another crime, she is. She had already been a convicted felon for committing a crime and possessing a gun during it. She had threated to kill me, and her 10 year old son and beat up police officers. She had her apartment door (about 8 feet from my door unfortunately for me) kicked in at least twice that I know of by the police. I still have her teeth marks in my cheek, and though they are faint, I know exactly where they are, and it is something I won't soon forget.
Anyway, I guess my point is to call someone an Orangutan is actually an insult, not to the person, but to all the good Orangutans in the world. They don't deserve to be categorized with monstrous people. ;0)
4 painstaking hours later I managed to tame Adsiltia's wig! *proud* ^^ I flat ironed her hair, cut the access length, braided her hair, and boil washed it to create some subtle waves. Much better! :3
I had a straight above shot of this and it had a very graphic quality to it but I found it too simple. I think the Depth of Field blur in this shot gives it a little extra something and also the composition is different from the other one as it was centered. That said It's not a stellar image but for such a plain object I'm satisfied with what I've done with it.

small metal square with nine asterisks punched out. i have no idea why i didn't bring this home as it's the kind of thing that usually finds its way into my pockets.

Tekin við aðstöðu siglingaklúbbsins Nökkva, er ein af þessum gömlu sem ég hef verið að renna í gegnum.
Fannst svo flott að sjá förin eftir flugvélarnar á himninum og speglun á sól í sjónum.... hvað finnst ykkur ?

The galaxy Messier 100, or M100, shows its swirling spiral in this infrared image from NASAs Spitzer Space Telescope. The arcing spiral arms of dust and gas that harbor starforming regions glow vividly when seen in the infrared.
is a classic example of a grand design spiral galaxy, with prominent and well-defined spiral arms winding from the hot center, out to the cooler edges of the galaxy. It is located about 55 million light years away from Earth, in the little-known constellation of Coma Berenices, near to the more recognizable Leo.
In the center, we can see a prominent ring of hot, bright dust surrounding the inner galactic core. Moving further out, the spiral arms peter out towards the edges of the galaxy, where thick webs of dust dominate. Beyond the edges of the dust clouds, a faint blue glow of stars extends to the edge of the galaxys disk.
Two small companion galaxies, known as NGC 4323 and NGC 4328, appear as fuzzy blue blobs on the upper side of M100. These so-called lenticular galaxies are virtually clear of any dust, so they lack any of the red/green glow seen in their bigger neighbor. The shape of M100 is probably being perturbed by the gravity of these galaxies.
M100 was discovered in 1781, and is now known to stretch roughly 160,000 light years from one side to the other, making it about one and a half times the size of our own Milky Way galaxy. By studying these infrared images of M100, astronomers can map out the structure of the stars and dust, and study the ways in which galaxies like our Milky Way were formed.
M100 is well-known to astronomers because of the five stars that have become supernovae within the galaxy between 1901 and 2006. These exploding stars are extremely useful for helping astronomers to calibrate distance scales in the universe, and to estimate the age of the universe since its creation in the Big Bang.
The red regions reveal dust clouds that light up under the illumination of the surrounding stars. The stars themselves shine most brightly at the shorter infrared wavelengths, showing up here in blue. The blue dots covering the entire image are stars that lie between us and M100.
Infrared light with wavelengths of 3.6 and 4.5 microns are displayed in blue and green showing primarily the glow from starlight. 8 micron light is rendered in red; the small contribution from starlight at 8 microns was subtracted out from the data to better show the dust structures near the galaxys center.

Sophia Al-Maria: Taraxos
“ * - Every asterisk a star. Every star a clock. Every clock a chime. Every chime a warning. Waking a cell, then a seed, then the germ of a weed getting ready to flower. – Sophia Al-Maria
Sophia Al-Maria considers the dandelion an emblem of freedom and resistance, as each seed has the potential to become an agent of resilience and change. Inspired by the life cycle and geometry of the dandelion (taraxacum officinale), the sculpture taraxos is a model for understanding and listening to the world.
Taraxos is a meditative place for anyone to slow down time for themselves. Visitors can sit beneath and stand amongst a constellation of 12 metal achenes, which take the form of futuristic dandelion ‘seeds’, and listen to the sculpture. Activated by the wind, the sculpture can also be played by touching the stems which are covered in copper, a material selected for its antimicrobial qualities.
At the top of each achene the asterisk* appears as shorthand symbolising a dandelion seed’s bracts, below it is inscribed into the ground in reference to the navigational tool of a meteorological wind rose. The punctuation mark of the asterisk* is a motif in Al-Maria’s work which emerged from her screenwriting practice in which the asterisk indicates rewriting and revision. The central node of taraxos is a piece of reclaimed titanium from an airplane. This durable yet light material, ideal for air and space travel mirrors that of the seemingly fragile airborne dandelion seed.
The Serpentine x Modern Forms Sculpture Commission focuses on Serpentine’s immediate environment as a space for artists to engage with the landscape of the park.
Sophia Al-Maria was selected for this new public sculpture commission by Hans Ulrich Obrist, Artistic Director, Melissa Blanchflower, Curator, Exhibitions and Public Art, Serpentine and Nick Hackworth, Director, Modern Forms.”

One symbol from an old IBM Courier M 12 "golfball" printer head. To the naked eye, it looks quite smooth - but shown in extreme close-up, it has a very even, gritty texture.

My new Pullip baby arrived yesterday! :DD I seriously could not be happier with her! <333 Everything about her is just amazing! Now she just needs a name! For some reason Addison keeps popping up in my mind, possibly because it sounds similar to Adsiltia. I need to think of a name as perfect as her. x)
