Virgin 19 heads to the gate on International A at San Francisco International Airport. Cosmic Girl lives on as an airborne launcher for Virgin Galactic.
As I'm waiting for my figs to print, thought I'd share a few reviews of some figs I've gotten recently. The first up is Cosmic Spider by SoCal Minifigures (Ignacio). I'll hope to get Techno Girl too in the next week or so, just been too busy this summer to stay ahead.
First, have to admit, I had no clue there was such thing as Cosmic Spidey. :P But, nonetheless, I found myself slowly drawn to the design of the character. Then I looked him up and knew I had to have one, especially in Dark Blue.
What is great about this minifigure is first of all it's very simple yet clean design. All the elements on the fig are well placed, and look very much like the comic character. I'm not sure if this was in the Lego Marvel Superheroes game, as I don't remember this one, but it looks like it would belong there. I like the small star patterns found in different places on the body, as they are well spaced out. I also like the way the dark blue contrasts with the white, and the eyes on the fig are well drawn - almost looking mean.
The only slight critique of this figure I would have is that the white on the torso doesn't exactly match the legs as much (I know it's hard to tell with the stark contrast I used in editing the picture, but it is a bit off) Even though it doesn't match perfectly, it is very close and when I look at it, it still works and is not a distraction at all.
A solid fig overall and one worth adding to the collection. Great job on your first custom, Ignacio!
"Cosmic Windmill" I have been sitting on this image for awhile now, im not sure why i haven't shared it but more than likely its due to being a perfectionist and always wanting to improve. Anyway, This is a scene i was happy to shoot because i wasn't alone while i made it. I was shooting this old broken windmill and had the company of cows resting quietly against the stars. Although the cows are quite camera shy and continued to hide from the camera view during exposure, they were happy to keep me company as i gazed the sky above us. The night sky didn't disappoint that evening either, the milky way was brilliant and a stray meteor made a cameo in my shot during exposure. This spot is a new favorite location of mine, so get used to seeing more scenes encompassing this old windmill and farm in the future. the weekend is here and its a New Moon so im planning my next night excursion in search of clear dark skies and stunning views of this lovely landscape called California. Wishing everyone a great weekend! thanks for stopping by & stay classy :-D

"In the history of collective as in the history of the individual, everything depends on the development of consciousness. This gradually brings liberation from imprisonment in unconsciousness, and [the trickster] is therefore a bringer of light as well of healing.”
“The so-called civilised man has forgotten the trickster. He remembers him only figuratively and metaphorically, when, irritated by his own ineptitude, he speaks of fate playing tricks on him or of things being bewitched. He never suspects that his own hidden and apparently harmless shadow has qualities whose dangerousness exceeds his wildest dreams.”
“He is a forerunner of the saviour and, like him, God, man, and animal at once. He is both subhuman and superhuman, a bestial and divine being, whose chief and most alarming characteristic is his unconsciousness… He is so unconscious of himself that his body is not an unity, and his two hands fight each other.”
[Quotes by Carl Jung taken from his work "Archetypes and Collective Unconscious"]
________________________________________________________________
In praise of folly
Anima Mundi
Cosmic dancer
Zero is the number
The forerunner of the savior
Folly stands with
celestials in favor
As the wisdom of the world
is denied
closer to the truth
of the cosmos
O spiritual element!
Which gives earthly existence
charm and value
Salt of life,
yet you taste sweet
Bringing refreshment and
real treat!
Mediator to the center of the soul
Although the fool is always
too much or too less
Half god - half animal
Not un- but amoral
Mask of virtue
How much evil has been transformed
through wisdom?
(The owl of Minerva
comes too late again)
Beneath the consciousness
lies the archetype
When peasants aping the king:
Silliness an ancient
purifying rite
The fool clowning
between
Apollo and Bacchus’ sleight
Like the cunning Hermes
Flying through three worlds
Encrypted remains the
inner access
In Mercury the contradictions
Are connected
Healing begins with the
truth
So let the fool kiss the wound,
that only he can heal
No cure for the Fisher King
dying he lives despite this is fleed
the coffin
If the child is halfway into the
rational world
So the fool is on the right track
to escape
and laughs at those
who boast of their sageness
For divine folly is wiser
than compared to philosophy
and even its weakness
is stronger
Destroyed shall be
the wisdom of the wise
despoiler of most beautiful illusions
fantasised!
Why were we given by
Jupiter in a pound of passion
hardly mixed an ounce of reason?
Unwise deception brings delight
brings us love and the champion
Icy winds on mountain tops
The truth is to flattering mouth
no guest
Only the bread eater holds up
a mirror to the king
And the whim hides
the almost unspeakable
In crude jokes
of the most foolish kind
Why separating the paradise of the
fool from the misdeed?
The latter would never have arisen
had one learned to laugh
in dire need
So there are many classes of
fools
from the first screaming child
on every continent
in every literaral category
The fool can be found
in every human repertory
So let no one deceive
himself!
For whoever thinks to be wise
in this world
let him become a fool
so that he may become wise in the way
he was appointed to

Cosmic Head 🗻✨💀
Stack•Track•Composite•Deepscape
Ok so this comp is special because it's the first and only time I've imaged the Rosette Nebula and this is a second edit, I excluded a couple of light frames that had them thin annoying clouds. Just to make it clear both FG and SKY was captured the same night though not at the exact same tripod position, also different focal lengths. We have many mountains around this city all part of the Andes mountain range but this one is called Mururata and has a peculiar legend, the story tells that Mururata wanted to be above all and was punished and ultimately had his head cut off by his brother Illimani, the top of the head then became another mountain called Sajama. It all came together now... Mururatas head is projected into the night sky as the Rosette Nebula and also fits nicely in the cut off part of the mountain. With this in mind I will try to have another sesh with the Rosette and Mururata.
Ok that's it, I wish you all clear skies and cosmic vibes!✨

A photograph of a spider's web spotted between some railings outside OUP one dismal rainy January day. The view through the railings is very uninspiring so I've played around in Elements and created a background which has turned out ressembling the 'Big Bang' lol !

Cosmic Emotions As the moon reigned over her chariot, the horizon was red, fell in love with the nature and the stars shone even more! Mars and Saturn dragged the dance, in Libra, in Ophiuchus and Scorpio and our Galaxy as a delusion shining in the firmament ... Perhaps the most fabulous thing was to swim under the light of our galaxy and around you, in your touch, hundreds of blue Fluorescent Plankton lights illuminate ... how majestic is nature!

Here's another shot of the Northern Lights up in Alaska. I liked this shot since it looks like a cosmic explosion. Believe it or not, it was snowing on me when I took this picture. I still can't explain how snow can fall when the sky is clear??

Got a tutorial on how to draw a "cosmic cat" and I gave it a whirl.
A massive galaxy cluster in the constellation Cetus dominates the centre of this image from the Hubble Space Telescope. This image is populated with a serene collection of elliptical and spiral galaxies, but galaxies surrounding the central cluster — named SPT-CL J0019-2026 — appear stretched into bright arcs, as if distorted by a gargantuan magnifying glass.
This cosmic contortion is called gravitational lensing, and it occurs when a massive object like a galaxy cluster has a sufficiently powerful gravitational field to distort and magnify the light from background objects. Gravitational lenses magnify light from objects that would usually be too distant and faint to observe, and so these lenses can extend Hubble’s view even deeper into the universe.
This particular galaxy cluster lies at a vast distance of 4.6 billion light years from Earth.

It was a gorgeous Sunday morning sunrise at Margate City beach. I was taking pictures and video when I saw this strange thing. It looked and felt like a squishy clear grape. And it was about the size of a small grape. And it appears to refract sunlight.
And I shot some video too:

One minute it was there, the next minute it was gone. An odd cloud formation or a cosmic egg and the dawn of a new universe? There was no bang, so...
Taken at Fern Ridge, Oregon. Except for some saturation tweaks and cropping, the image is unmanipulated.
