Turnagain Arm iceflow 2013. Set out to go a little farther out onto the Arm...this time about 1/2 mile. Still had about 1 mile of ice between me and the water....getting either braver or lost my senses. It was still a bit eerie being the only one out there and if things where to go wrong, I was screwed. I am still trying to get the shot that's in my minds eye, but the Sun and clouds are still not lining up...getting closer

First Crocus
This morning, flowers cracked open
the earth’s brown shell. Spring
leaves spilled everywhere
though winter’s stern hand
could come down again at any moment
to break the delicate yolk
of a new bloom.
The crocus don’t see this as they chatter
beneath a cheerful petal of spring sky.
They ignore the air’s brisk arm
as they peer at their fresh stems, step
on the leftover fragments
of old leaves.
When the night wind twists them to pieces,
they will die like this: laughing,
tossing their brilliant heads
in the bitter air.

The Greek Mythology Summary of Persephone
Demeter, goddess of the corn and harvest, has one daughter, Persephone, the maiden of spring. Hades, god of the Underworld, kidnaps Persephone and brings her down to be his wife in the Underworld. Grief-stricken and confused, Demeter withholds her gifts from the world, which becomes “a frozen desert.” She comes down to human beings in the form of an elderly woman and is taken in by a woman named Metaneira. At night, Demeter attempts to grant Metaneira’s son immortal youth by secretly anointing the boy with ambrosia and placing him in a hot fire. When Metaneira discovers Demeter putting her son in the fire, she becomes irate. Demeter then sheds her disguise and demands that the people of the town build her a temple.
In this temple, far removed from the other gods in Olympus, Demeter sits in longing for her daughter. The earth, meanwhile, freezes to a bitter cold that threatens mankind’s extinction. Finally, Zeus intervenes by telling Hermes to go down to the underworld and bring Persephone back. Hades knows he must agree to Zeus’s terms, but he gives Persephone four pomegranate seeds, knowing that if she eats them she will have to return to him. With her daughter back, Demeter leaves her temple and joins the other gods on Mount Olympus. But because Persephone does eat the pomegranate seeds, she must return to the Underworld for four months a year - one month for every seed she ate. In these months, Demeter grieves and the earth goes through winter.

made an articulate arm yesterday for the 'blue mech', it is a little bit out of proportion but that could just work out nicely :D

This is an old but gold trick that I first saw 7 years a go in an Angel Minifgure made by Grantmasters, since then I never saw any arm pose trick that can beat his and I think this awesome trick needs to be shared to others again :)

Yeah I ordered a bootleg clayface like a month ago and simply fell in love with it
His face is a bit off but the company was trying to mimic the comics so it's passable
Also love the fact that they gave him an arm with a hammer for a hand plus points to that
Jokers here for scale
As always express yourself on the comment section below
It's always difficult to keep coming up with new angles that aren't just variations on the same old thing you've done before.
A hug and a punch in the arm to all of you out there--may you find the inspiration you're looking for.
HFF!
Opposite Albrecht Dürer's house in Nuremberg, an artist was inspired to turn Dürer's famous watercolour of a young hare (to be admired in Vienna's Albertina) into this somewhat nightmarish sculpture of a giant rabbit crushing a human.
Hommage an Dürer? Vielleicht einfach eine Reaktion auf die allgegenwärtige Vermarktung des Hasen in der Stadt...

For my video; youtu.be/83b8ZPP5Ohk,
Lake Wakatipu is an inland lake (finger lake) in the South Island of New Zealand. It is in the southwest corner of the Otago region, near its boundary with Southland. Lake Wakatipu comes from the original Māori word Whakatipu wai-māori.
With a length of 80 kilometres (50 mi), it is New Zealand's longest lake, and, at 291 km2 (112 sq mi), its third largest. The lake is also very deep, its floor being below sea level, with a maximum depth of 380 metres (1,250 ft). It is at an altitude of 310 metres (1,020 ft), towards the southern end of the Southern Alps. The general topography is a reversed "N" shape or "dog leg". The Dart River flows into the northern end, the lake then runs south for 30 kilometres before turning abruptly to the east. Twenty kilometres (12.4 mi) further along, it turns sharply to the south, reaching its southern end 30 kilometres (19 mi) further south, near Kingston.
The lake is drained by the Kawarau River, which flows out from the lake's only arm, the Frankton Arm, 8 km (5.0 mi) east of Queenstown. Until about 18,000 years ago the Mataura River drained Lake Wakatipu. The Kingston Flyer follows part of the former river bed now blocked by glacial moraine.Queenstown is on the northern shore of the lake close to eastern end of its middle section. It has a seiche of period 26.7 minutes which, in Queenstown Bay, causes the water level to rise and fall some 200 millimetres (7.9 in).
Lake Wakatipu is renowned for its scenic beauty, being surrounded by mountains. The Remarkables mountain range lies along its southeastern edge. It is a popular venue for adventure tourism, with skifields, paragliding, bungy jumping and tramping tracks within easy reach. A vintage steamboat, the TSS Earnslaw regularly plies its waters. Several vineyards are nearby in Gibbston.

On a Sunny Monday while leaving Stade Roland Garros, I ran across this officer, who was nice enough to excuse my not so terrific French, but when he said bonjour, his dimpled chin caught this photographer's eye and I had to capture this moment!
My Nikon D90 didn't do him justice, because nothing could capture his beauty except for one's own eye. I'm so glad I decided to stroll the grounds that day!
Oui, il est un home! An Officer and a Gentleman!
