I'm working on an anthology of classic, epic poetry, which begins with selections from Homer's Iliad and Odyssey! :) I've replaced the Roman names with the Greek names: "RAGE, Sing, O goddess, the rage of Achilles son of Peleus, that brought countless ills upon the Greeks. Many a brave soul did it send hurrying down to Hades, and many a hero did it yield a prey to dogs and vultures, for so were the counsels of Zeus fulfilled from the day on which the son of Atreus, king of men, and great Achilles, first fell out with one another."

All art is but imitation of nature.-- Seneca (Letters from a Stoic - Letter LXV: On the First Cause)
The universe itself is God and the universal outpouring of its soul. --Chrysippus (Quoted by Cicero in De Natura Deorum)
Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness
Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun
Conspiring with him how to load and bless
With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eves run;
To bend with apples the moss'd cottage-trees,
And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core;
To swell the gourd, and plump the hazel shells
With a sweet kernel; to set budding more,
And still more, later flowers for the bees,
Until they think warm days will never cease,
For Summer has o'er-brimm'd their clammy cells. --To Autumn. by John Keats

Greetings flickr fans! Many more uploads soon! I have been busy writing, traveling, and shooting! I finished my books on the Tao of Epic Landscape Photography and the Golden Number Ratio Principle! I oft incorporate the golden ratio in my landscape compositions, and you'll also see it in the design and proportion of the 45surf clothes and surfboard and gun logos (More golden ratio information at my facebook page facebook.com/goldennumberratio). Message me on facebook for free review copies of my books here: facebook.com/mcgucken ! :)

Nikon D810 Photos Pro Women's Surfing Sports Photography Tamron SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3 Di VC USD !
I shot in DX mode which crops away the extra pixels and takes me 1.5X closer while allowing for up to 7 FPS with the Nikon D810's Nikon MB-D12 Battery Grip using the 8 AA battery option! 8 Duracells took me through around 3,000 shots no problem--maybe more! I was shooting at the equivalent of 900mm with the 1.5x crop factor! Pretty close! Had I gone with the Nikon D4s, I would have gotten 12 fps, but no DX crop factor, as the sensor has only around 24mp, compared to the d810's 36 megapixels! Sure the larger pixel size on the Nikon D4s full frame sensor comes in handy indoors or at night, but in the bright sun, there's more than enough light for the smaller pixels in crop mode! Sure we lose some pixels from the outer edges when shooting in DX crop mode, but most of those pixels would be cropped away in Lightroom anyway. And the smaller files make the memory cards last longer, while also upping the FPS to 7 shots per second! Not quite 12 FPS, but still awesome and enough I felt!
What a beautiful way to test the Nikon D810 and Tamron 150-600mm zoom lens for sports photography!

View your artistic mission into photography as an epic odyssey of heroic poetry! Take it from Homer in Homer's Odyssey: "Tell me, O muse, of that ingenious hero who travelled far and wide after he had sacked the famous town of Troy. Many cities did he visit, and many were the nations with whose manners and customs he was acquainted; moreover he suffered much by sea while trying to save his own life and bring his men safely home; but do what he might he could not save his men, for they perished through their own sheer folly in eating the cattle of the Sun-god Hyperion; so the god prevented them from ever reaching home. Tell me, too, about all these things, O daughter of Jove, from whatsoever source you may know them. " --Samuel Butler Translation of Homer's Odyssey

The goddess was tall, thin, and fit, with long, natural brown hair, pretty blue eyes, and a great smile!
Cute freckles!
It was a nice sunny, windless, warm, winter's day out on the beach, where the sun stays low all day for epic shooting!
Shooting simultaneous stills & video rocks! I do it on every shoot now, while also mounting several stationary DSLRs/camcorders for video in addition to the Panasonic or Sony Camcorder bracketed to my Canon 5D or Nikon D800E.
The sea & sand goddess was tall, thin, fit, and athletic, with gorgerous brown hair and pretty blue eyes and long legs! She's a dancer! Wearing a pink polka-dot bikini!
Pretty freckles too!

Pretty Hero's Odyssey Mythology Swimsuit Bikini Model! Greek Goddess!
All of the new Gold 45 Revolver(TM) and 45SURF(R) logos and designs are inspired by the golden number phi and divine proportion! Just as my landscapes oft employ the golden rectangle and fibonacci spiral in composition, all the bikinis, shirts, and lingerie designs are made with the golden section and gold number Phi (1.618) in mind! The golden grids, rectangles, pentagons, and spirals make a far better system for compositions than does the rule of thirds! And too, the golden mean and divine proportion are found in every model--in her pretty face and in the divine proportions of the 45surf goddess's heavenly body! I'm working on a book on all this beautitful craziness in fine art landscapes and models called The Golden Hero's Odyssey, which also ties it to my physics theory Dynamic Dimenions theory (dx4/dt=ic). :)

The 45EPIC landscapes and goddesses are straight out of Homer's Iliad & Odyssey!
I'm currently updating a translation with the Greek names for the gods and goddesses--will publish soon! :)
"RAGE--Sing, O goddess, the anger of Achilles son of Peleus, that brought countless ills upon the Achaeans. Many a brave soul did it send hurrying down to Hades, and many a hero did it yield a prey to dogs and vultures, for so were the counsels of Zeus fulfilled from the day on which the son of Atreus, king of men, and great Achilles, first fell out with one another. " --Homer's Iliad capturing the rage of the 45EPIC landscapes and seascapes! :)
Ludwig van Beethoven: "Music/poetry/art should strike fire from the heart of man, and bring tears from the eyes of woman."

Examples of Syrian "bird head" Goddess terracotta figures from early dates around the late neolithic to early bronze age bridge, so from between polished stone and early ages of metal and a wide date range of 5200 to 3500 ybp seems safe (as indicated in this display behind glass from the Museum of Agen).
When 3D images are created, there can be limitations that can effect the final lines, for example, when making a mask from tree-cork, the mask has a chunky feel, and when making a doll from woven grass, the result is soft edged. With clay, there is no limitation as both hard and soft, broad-stroke and detailed effects are available for impression. Little in the medium of clay can get in the way of an artist's imagination. These 'bird idols' results look to be neither realist depiction or schematic abstraction, and it is perhaps the case that these clay models reproduced cultural decorations that appeared outside of the artist. I shall call these "indirect gestation images".
Every year there are harvest festivals where the very best decorative breads are assembled aside bowls of fruit and garlands and other detailed weaves of natural expression. Often the individual elements are brought together into a display, and often the display can include strange but joyfully understandable human forms (see varied deep rural traditions), not the forms of small portable corn-dollies, but large Arcimboldoesque centre displays that include best fruits (and thus seeds), best food transformation skills (for example breads) and best craft skills (baskets, woven garland and pots) - in effect an assembled personification of a fecund community, mixing nature's talents with human talents. The anthropomorphic form is assembled from bowls, garlands and shapes in a way that would phase up into our historical hierarchy via some of our kitch rococos. Perhaps these small portable terracotta idols replicated important ancient harvest personifications, or, as mentioned in an associated post (below), perhaps they describe in miniature the assembled ornamental scene around an urn field or sepulture that is active during the period of a funeral. So diverse are the idols, that perhaps some were for ancestors and funerals and others for harvest and fecundity, and that today we mix them all together like a car-boot box with its mix of classical music and 'Top of the Pops'. With this hypothesis none of the idols would be bird inspired and the pyramidal central shapes would be measured aside other essential abstracted forms that held focus of a face - perhaps each identifying the shapes specific to ancient clans or speciality groups within new sedentary 'urban' conglomorates: pyramids, curves and points.
Despite cultural norms for snowmen there are several repeated conventions. Snowmen are defined by how balls of snow compact together. Now, today's snowmen are ephemeral asides to a year's chapters - a little bit of carnavalesque for children and families during blankets of snow. Were the snowmen to have been highly important icons of harvest fertility or remembrance ancestors then perhaps we may have created smaller terracotta icons that resembled their temporal apex. Obviously this is a thought-experiment and snow could not easily adapt for such an important cultural role, but as a thought-experiment it may help visualise the idea.
Similarities can be seen here with a hypothesis I put forward to explain the language of lines found in the Rouergat group of statue menhirs. Although there are over 3000km between the two areas (Syria and Aveyron/Tarn) they are both from a similar sheer of chronology - in through sedentary agriculture and out to reproduced metals. I proposed that many 'naked' blank standing stones had been decorated with a mix of garland, rope and ceramic additions to procure vivid images of ancestral giants (Cham des Bondons) and that the statue menhirs 'memorised' these forms and lines, remembering this 'craft designated visual style' in carved stone, once again producing 'indirect gestation images' that are neither pure schematic or natural description (as the natural description is of a semi abstract original). With both examples we may be seeing a desire to make a record of strong and yet inherently ephemeral cultural artefacts, and in so doing recording past traditions with new techniques. If this is the case, then the 'bird idols and the Rouergat statue menhirs both offer a glimpse into a deeper past, as much as a fixed chronological episode, and some of the slightly barren megalithic reproductions afforded in many of today's visualisations may lack expression, idiosyncrasy and local structure and ornament.
As might be expected there is some evidence of refinement of these idol forms over time, with the original jumbly 'bird Goddesses' perfecting and even 'humanising' or "schematizing' into, for example, potential 'Astarte' forms - still retaining some of the original language, but easing it from its enthusiastically pastoral past of assembly into an indubitable deity for more urban hierarchical descriptions of the later ages of metal.

Gorgeous athletic girl goddesses! Here is some video from last year shot at the same time as stills--I'm too tired to process this year's video and have to get up at 5:30 AM tomorrow to catch the start of the day!

Shot with a Sony A77 and Sigma 50-500mm Lens! Instead of shooting the Nikon D4 & 600mm F/4 Prime on a tripod, I decided to be a bit more mobile this year, running around with a monopod! I also had my Nikon D800E slung over my shoulder with a 28-300 lens. :)
A beautiful day with tall, thin, fit goddesses at the beach!
Tomorrow I'll mostly be shooting with the D800E and the 150-500 Sigma lens. Getting up early! See you there!

When I started collecting, I kept my dolls in a glass case and did not play with them. As I continue to collect and buy new dolls, I realized that I have some beautiful dolls in my glass case sitting there doing nothing! So, I am getting some of them out to photograph and then redress and make part of my doll community. Here are the goddesses!

Greetings flickr fans! Many more uploads soon! I have been busy writing, traveling, and shooting! I finished my books on the Tao of Epic Landscape Photography and the Golden Number Ratio Principle! I oft incorporate the golden ratio in my landscape compositions, and you'll also see it in the design and proportion of the 45surf clothes and surfboard and gun logos (More golden ratio information at my facebook page facebook.com/goldennumberratio). Message me on facebook for free review copies of my books here: facebook.com/mcgucken ! :)
I'm working on a book on photographing epic goddesses too! What should I title it? :)
facebook.com/goldennumberratio
Full titles: The Tao of Epic Landscape Photography: Exalt Fine Art with the Yin-Yang Wisdom of Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching.
And: The Golden Number Ratio Principle: Why the Fibonacci Numbers Exalt Beauty and How to Create PHI Compositions in Art, Design, & Photography: An Artistic and Scientific Introduction to the Golden Mean !
I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed writing them! :)
Enjoy the epic landscape and goddess and photography and note the golden ratio overlays in some of the photos, as well as the golden ratio in the Birth of Venus painting by Botticelli!
I've been on the road shooting landscapes in Zion, Yosemite, the Eastern Sierras, Big Sur, and more!
Many of you have seen my physics formula dx4/dt=ic for Light Time Dimesnion Theory on a lot of the 45surf clothing and in the fine art landscape logos. I finally finished the first book of many on the foundations of photography's best friend--light:
Light Time Dimension Theory: The Foundational Physics Unifying Einstein's Relativity and Quantum Mechanics.

I'm working on an anthology of classic, epic poetry, which begins with selections from Homer's Iliad and Odyssey! :) I've replaced the Roman names with the Greek names: "RAGE, Sing, O goddess, the rage of Achilles son of Peleus, that brought countless ills upon the Greeks. Many a brave soul did it send hurrying down to Hades, and many a hero did it yield a prey to dogs and vultures, for so were the counsels of Zeus fulfilled from the day on which the son of Atreus, king of men, and great Achilles, first fell out with one another."

Three of the statues of the east pediment of the Parthenon of Athens, now in the British Museum.
The New Acropolis Museum is now open and is time for all the removed parts of the Parthenon to be united, to be returned to their birthplace. There are no more excuses for the British government and the British Museum which holds most of the Acropolis violently-removed parts.
Today, the new Acropolis Museum has a total area of 25,000 square meters, with exhibition space of over 14,000 square meters, ten times more than that of the old museum on the Hill of the Acropolis. The new Museum offers all the amenities expected in an international museum of the 21st century.
The Greek Minister's of Culture message for the museum follows:
.....................................................................................................................................................................
Welcome to the new Acropolis Museum. 188 years since the declaration of the Greek Independence, 33 years since Constantinos Karamanlis took the far-sighted decision to built it in this particular site, and 27 years since the campaign of Melina Merkouri, a duty is fulfilled and a dream is realized:
A whole nation’s duty to its own cultural heritage; the new Acropolis Museum. The paramount monument of Ancient Classical Times now has its own Museum – at last. In difficult times people need symbols to hold tight and stand straight. The Grand Opening of the new Acropolis Museum may be such a symbolic event. Where the Aesthetics of Logic, the Ethics of Freedom and the Rationality of Beauty, are all fused together and carved in stone for eternity. Acropolis hasn’t stayed intact over the centuries. Yet it is still radiating its Beauty and its Truth.
This unique embodiment of ideas, ideals, moral standards and aesthetic values is needed now, more than ever. And we enjoy these, for the first time in a Modern Museum deserving to the historical Monument. Take a tour in it. Appreciate its atmosphere and its exhibits. Be inspired by its transcending message. It is Greek because it is Ecumenical. It is ours only to share it with the rest of the World. And please, remember: What you will discover is not just a part of our History. It is also a part of our soul, of who we are…
There are strong, sacred bonds, connecting us with every single item, from the humblest archaeological fragment to the most ornate figure. All of the artifacts are parts of our soul… Mostly the ones missing! With the anticipation that eventually – better sooner than later – they will be re-united in their birth place and in the integral form they were meant to be.
Antonis C. Samaras
Minister of Culture

Shot with a Sony A77 and Sigma 50-500mm Lens! Instead of shooting the Nikon D4 & 600mm F/4 Prime on a tripod, I decided to be a bit more mobile this year, running around with a monopod! I also had my Nikon D800E slung over my shoulder with a 28-300 lens. :)
A beautiful day with tall, thin, fit goddesses at the beach!
Tomorrow I'll mostly be shooting with the D800E and the 150-500 Sigma lens. Getting up early! See you there!
If you walk around the finnancial district in downtown San Francisco, you may spot these ghostly statues installed on the roof top of the office building at 580 California St. The statues were the work of the artist, Muriel Castanis. Why are they up there? I have no idea. However, there are quite visible all the way from Russian Hill. At night, they do look a bit eerie. Here 's the background story of these ghostly statues:

I saw something on Flickr that inspired me to make this series of AI art. I went from African Wood Goddesses to Chinese, Mexican, Japanese, Irish, Russian, Iranian, Afghani, then to mixing ethnicities because there is only one Race in the entire world and that is Human. You might find yourself in one of the many assimilations. I hope I used that word right. Making this compilation was almost like being on a drug. A drug of creativity. I don’t know if I got it entirely out of my system but I am sure I will be back at it I only have one image of a non binary person so I will go down that road when I have more time.
