I was fortunate enough to witness this fierce battle between rival lion factions, competing for supreme domination over the land. Those were moments of intense mayhem it was epic !
The Sea Beast was one of the most revered and respected knights in the kingdom. He had fought in countless battles at Sea against Pirates and fleets of the Western Cities. For years, he commanded the Grey Channel and all feared to look upon his ship, the Black Serpent.
When Haytham charged at this great warrior, he knew that defeating him would be no easy task. The Sea Beast was a man of 47 years of age, but what he lacked in youth, he made up for in experience and toughness. His thick oak shield and the snake tattoo on his face were the symbols of his ancient house, and he bore them with such fervour, that it made even the young rebel second guess his choice.
Sir Haytham was faster, and his sword was stronger steel. Sir Belard had just battled the four knights who now fled on boats and hadn't suffered a scratch, but Haytham could tell that the Beast was heavy of breath. When they first clashed, Belard took control. His footwork and balance was impeccable, having done most of his fighting at sea. Soon, Haytham began to weigh the risk of a retreat when his luck turned. Sir Belard took an arrow to the back, and though you wouldn't notice from his expression, as the minutes drew on, his sword began to look heavy in his hand. Belard's breath turned to wheezes, and he fell to one knee. The Sea Beast looked into Haytham's eyes and growled, "let it not be said that I was slain by a traitor, but kill me anyways boy."
Haytham drove his sword through the knight's chest, and turned to run.

My new Integrity Toys Doll, Color Clash Alysa 3.0 from the Industry Collection. She's wearing Barbie Collector-50th Anniversary and my own creation earrings.
I have gone beyond dipping my toe in the Integrity/FR pool and taken a step in. I ordered this doll from a dealer. She's my fourth Integrity doll and the first blond.
And in her first Flickr appearance she wears a thrift store dress ;)

Not sure if I like this one or not, but am posting it anyway : ) This bright flower was growing in front of another plant which had long, rigid, pinkish leaves. I did write down the names of some of the flowers I photographed, but as usual, I'm not sure which name fits each flower. I know nothing about garden plants, unfortunately.
A pair of male elephants have a coming together, part of life's lessons, learning how it will be in later years when they fight for dominance of the herd.
This scene was close to the Madikwe Lelapa Safari Lodge, at a waterhole that could be viewed from the swimming pool area, what a way to relax!

Bat of Gotham against Son of Krypton.
My submission for The New Paper's #batmanvsuperman art contest earlier this month, which unfortunately wasn't shortlisted. No biggie, rushed it out in 30 minutes anyway.
The point is, it's just one week to the release of this long-awaited clash of superheroes!

Thomas Hoyne's New Ways on the Banquereau in the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, one of my favorite paintings there. It's about a clash of technologies. The men in the dory work their nets by hand. They're looking back at a steam-powered trawler whose mechanized nets would put them out of business. That would have happened around 1900, though the scene was painted in 1981. Most people miss the history lesson, responding instead to the depiction of the rising swell in the foreground, which makes you feel that you're out there yourself. (The Banquereau is a fishing area in the North Atlantic south of Nova Scotia, Canada.)
