Woven Stories continues Astman’s career-long exploration of society’s excess production and consumption of images and the effects on individual identity, particularly for women. The artist radically reworks consumer-based images by cropping, repeating and flipping fragments, which are arranged into a grid pattern. She created these works by making “film strips” constructed of newspaper images transferred onto packing tape. These strips are then woven together, scanned and the files uploaded to a digital weaving machine which creates a tapestry of overlapping images in an abstracted grid pattern.
All the bags of coffee I managed to keep this year. I lost two of the most memorable this year, Kuma Coffee's Tano Batak and Bella Carmona.

After last nights intense storm.. on the way to work this morning I noticed the fog still spilling over the escarpment, thought to drop into Primbee and hopefully catch the pier and mirrored lake in the foreground.
In the five minutes it took to get there it literally evaported, still it was a super clear morning and I had the gear with me (naturally) so I grabbed a few frames on the walk out and back.
In the low scrub along the side of the walking track taking advantage of the shade and recent humidity.

Bicycles were introduced in the 19th century and now number about one billion worldwide. They are the principal means of transportation in many parts of the world.
Cycling is widely regarded as a very effective and efficient mode of transportation optimal for short to moderate distances. Bicycles provide numerous benefits by comparison with motor vehicles, including the sustained physical exercise necessarily involved in cycling, that cycling involves a reduced consumption of fossil fuels, less air or noise pollution, much reduced traffic congestion, easier parking, greater maneuverability, and access to both roads and paths. The advantages also include reduced financial cost to the user as well as to society at large (negligible damage to roads, less road area required). Among the disadvantages of cycling are the inherent instability of the bicycle, the immensely reduced protection in crashes (especially in collisions with motor vehicles), longer travel time (except in densely populated areas), vulnerability to weather conditions, difficulty in transporting passengers, competition (and interference) with socially beneficial forms of mass public transit, a persistent tendency for cyclists to intrude into pedestrian areas, and the particular levels of skill and fitness required by cycling.

My pictures come from two news articles and a album cover by Black Sabbath. One of the articles is about sea life and the other is about the scientific pursuit of happiness. I combined the marine life and coral with the album cover because the different reds complement each other. I added Ripped happiness because it fits the theme of consumption and the message I’m sending. The message I'm sending with combining these images is that because of our consumption of material wealth and money we go to certain extents that hurt our planet. An example would be oil, and how oil spills kill marine life.
Standing in the shopping street i thought on our society based on selling and buying stuff we don´t really need...
Thomas Jones "The Grotto at Posillipo" signed Naples 1782
Thomas Jones (26 September 1742 – 29 April 1803) was a Welsh landscape painter. He was a pupil of Richard Wilson and was best-known in his lifetime as a painter of Welsh and Italian landscapes in the style of his master. However, Jones's reputation grew in the 20th century when more unconventional works by him, ones not been intended for public consumption, came to light. Most notable among these is a series of views of Naples which he painted from 1782 to 1783. By breaking with the conventions of classical landscape painting in favour of direct observation, they look forward to the work of Camille Corot and the Barbizon School in the 19th century.His autobiography, Memoirs of Thomas Jones of Penkerrig, went unpublished until 1951 but is now recognised as a major work of commentary on the 18th-century art world.
ones embarked on an eagerly-anticipated trip to Italy in September 1776. The works produced there departed significantly from the example of his master, particularly in his watercolour paintings, where he developed a distinctive palette of varying shades of blue. Jacob More, John Robert Cozens and Thomas Banks were among the fellow expatriate artists with whom Jones was friendly. His first commission in Italy was a landscape entitled Lake Albano–Sunset for the Earl-Bishop of Derry, who became Jones's most important patron.
Jones made his first visit to Naples in September 1778, staying there for five months. He returned to Rome for a time, living in a house near the Spanish Steps built by Salvator Rosa.] He took on a Danish widow called Maria Moncke as his "Maid Servant" in April 1779, eloping with her to Naples a year later. Then the largest city in Italy, Naples promised more opportunities for patronage than had Rome, and Jones sought the patronage of the British Ambassador Sir William Hamilton in particular.[4] Maria gave birth to two daughters in Naples, Anna Maria (in 1780) and Elizabetha (in 1781).
Founded in 1683, The Ashmolean re-opened on Saturday 7th November 2009. Their new display approach is "crossing culture crossing time." It was my first glimpse today, the much loved older museum is still here, but now enormously extended and plenty more to enjoy.
Supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund, the Ashmolean is currently undergoing a £61 million redevelopment. Award-winning architect Rick Mather has designed a new building to replace all but the Grade I listed Cockerell building. His design will double the existing gallery space, allow environmental control, and create a dedicated Education Centre and conservation facilities.
I've tried to show something of the atmosphere and texture of the museum in many of the photos, I also wanted to convey the sense of movement and people's interaction with the art objects, therefore razor sharp clarity (were I to achieve that) was not my number one objective. This set will grow as I explore the new galleries, I hope you'll forgive me if I do not tag or describe everything right away as there is so much to take in!

This crested hornshark is either eating the egg, or moving it to a safe place. There are a lot of Port Jackson sharks around at the moment so it might be eating a cousin's egg. On the other hand we believe that both Crested and PJ sharks lay their eggs then move them into a sheltered place. Which is it?
If you're going to post, "borrow" or do some sort of shenanigans with my pictures, credit would be greatly appreciated. :)
I've been trying to shoot this one forever, usually there is someone home and that could be awkward.

There are many beautiful rivers in Virginia. A wonderful natural resource, that has been unfortunately compromised with much pollution. Most of the fish in our waters are unsafe to eat especially for pregnant women.
