Merman at the Zwaanendael Museum in Lewes, Delaware
The Zwaanendael Museum is modeled after a 17th century Netherlands town hall and offers a showcase for Lewes-area history. But its most popular exhibit has nothing to do with Lewes' Revolutionary War or maritime heritage. It's a monstrosity named The Fiji Merman.
Lounging on a royal blue velvet cushion, safely separated from the non-monster world in a glass box within a glass box, the mummified foot-long creature was given to a prominent Lewes family by an old sea captain. After nearly a century of foster care, the family loaned it to the Zwaanendael Museum in 1941. When the last family member died in 1985, the citizens of Lewes banded together and bought the Merman for $250. "Nobody wanted him to go," said museum director Andrea Anderson. She added that the merman is still "much beloved by the town" and that local kids call him "Monkeyfish."
According to mythology, Nereus was ruler of the Aegean sea and Father to the 50 Nereids.
I haven't sewn in ages so for MerMay I decided to make this merman. He started as a Dumbledore from Harry Potter doll, his tail and sleeves are all hand sewn by me, I made the trident/sceptre using bits in my junk box, the crown is a repainted Barbie crown with added jewel.
Beneath waters blue the merman swims on gleaming fins. The Ocean is his Kingdom & he it’s King.
Absolutely LOVE this doll, so handsome!! I have named him Adonis.
Following the March of the Mermaids along the beach and the promenade I hadn't thought anything about tails and walking. Then I saw this guys stunning tail and it drew my attention to all the other mer-folks bottom half. No doubt whatsoever that he'd win any merfolk competition.
A lover of shiny things, MerMaxxie explores the seas with his collection of curios adorning him. His collection includes the Heart of the Ocean, Ariel’s dingle hopper, snarfblat & part of her shell bikini, Madison’s necklace, Ursula’s shell, a pirate coin, shark tooth & more. He is joined in his adventures by Nemo, Flounder & Sebastian & his well camouflaged octopus friend Krake.
MiniMaxxie was made by a good friend of mine, I am so blown away & I LOVE my MiniMe

Did a little sewing for my EAH dolls today and made Cupid's dress from True Hearts Day and made Hunter a merman tail.
I was actually trying to make it for the girls but miscalculated the amount of fabric needed so... it ended up fitting EAH males better. It also fits barbie but its a little wide.
Playing around with Reshade, all I did in photoshop was reduce file size to save storage space on flikr.

Lake Marie, Snowy Range, Medicine Bow National Forest, Wyoming--summer 2022
As noted elsewhere, this is one of my favorite spots in all the world, having first visited the area with my family when I was a small child. I was always hesitant to return as an adult, fearing that my childhood memories would be damaged by the more sophisticated and jaded sensibilities of my adult self. But when I visited for the second time in 2015, I almost cried when I discovered it to be just as beautiful as remembered. This third trip did nothing to change my assessment. It could be a national park, and perhaps one day it will be, but for now, I'm happy that it remains a relative secret, one that thousands enjoy each year instead of millions. Here's hoping I return yet again in the not distant future.
One of the cool things about the fact that the area remains unknown to the vast majority of Americans, is that it's easy to find places to be nude without having to hike miles off the beaten path. This spot is perhaps 300 meters from that (relative) beaten path and yet I felt quite isolated. I spent a few hours here, relaxed and unconcerned with being seen. Of course, the main attraction isn't the naturism, but the nature.
I love the palate of color in the photo, though it was difficult to process owing to the high-contrast, including a very dark merman. Incidentally, this is a Pano combing two (vertically oriented) photos.

Thank you again Alex Currie for braving the cold and being an incredible merman! Everything fell into place so perfectly for this shoot, I'm sure I'll be posting many more.
The Coconut Grove Playhouse was a theatre in the Coconut Grove neighborhood of Miami, Florida, United States. The building was originally constructed as a movie theater called the Player's State Theater. It opened on January 3, 1927, as a part of the Paramount chain. The movie house was designed by the architect Richard Kiehnel of Kiehnel and Elliott. It was built by local realtors Irving J. Thomas and Fin L. Pierce. Albert Peacock was the contractor.
The theater was renowned as the second movie theatre on the east coast of Florida to be air conditioned and having the largest Wurlitzer organ in the United States. It was used for a variety of shows until closing in 2006. It has not been used since. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2018.
In the 1950s George Engle, an oilman, bought it and spent over $1 million (equivalent to $47 million in 2017) in renovations having the architect Alfred Browning Parker convert it to a live theatre. It reopened on January 3, 1956 with the US premiere of Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot, starring Bert Lahr and Tom Ewell.
In the fifty years that have followed, the Playhouse has played host to many of theater's most renowned performers, including Maureen Stapleton, Hume Cronyn, Jessica Tandy, Eve Arden, Tallulah Bankhead, Carol Channing, Liza Minnelli, Linda Lavin, Bea Arthur, George C. Scott, Colleen Dewhurst, Ethel Merman, and Raúl Esparza.
Between 1964 and 1965, The Coconut Grove Playhouse was used by The Miami Actors Company, which was meant to be an extension of the National Theatre and Academy. The brainchild of Ilse Earl, who taught theatre classes at Miami Dade College, launched this effort. Only 20 actors from Miami and surrounding areas were chosen to become part of this historic event, out of more than 100 or so of those who were asked to audition.
The company was reviewed by The Miami Herald theatre critic at that time. Shows involved, among others, were J.B. by Archibald MacLeish; All the Way Home by Tad Mosel; and Slow Dance on the Killing Ground by William Hanley. Slow Dance was a hurried replacement which had to be put in place within ten days of rehearsal, replacing Hogan's Goat.
In 1982, actor-director José Ferrer was named Artistic Director, and under his supervision the Playhouse gained a reputation as one of the nation's leading theatres. In 1985, Arnold Mittelman was selected after a national search to succeed Mr. Ferrer. Among the productions that premiered here prior to a Broadway opening are Neil Simon’s The Sunshine Boys, starring Jack Klugman and Tony Randall, and Urban Cowboy. Sherry Glaser’s Family Secrets moved to off-Broadway and became its longest running one-woman show. The Playhouse presented the world premiere of Fame: The Musical, which went on to great success in Baltimore, Philadelphia, and London’s West End, and mounted a revival of Death of a Salesman, starring Hal Holbrook and Elizabeth Franz, prior to a national tour. The theatre now has two stages, the 1700-seat proscenium Mainstage Theater and the intimate 100-seat Encore Room Theater.
The Playhouse provided a broad range of programs for all ages, including the In-School Touring Program, which presented plays aimed at students in grades six through twelve, Lizard Lessons, original plays with music for kindergarten through third grade, a Summer Theater Camp for teens, and Theater Stages, which teaches acting techniques, playwriting, costume and scenery design, and improvisation to children, teens, and adult performers.
On November 22, 1996, Late Show with David Letterman originated from the theater. It was the last episode of the show not to originate from New York.
The Coconut Grove Playhouse closed in 2006 due to an accumulated debt, which many believed was due to the high operating costs of running the large 1,130-seat theatre. The theatre remains closed to this date. In January 2014, however, Miami-Dade County received permission from the State of Florida to take over the building.
At the time of the Miami-Dade County takeover, there were several ideas for the use of the space. The current plan approved by the State of Florida is for a 300-seat theatre at the venue to be operated by GableStage, a renowned South Florida theatre company currently operating in a 150-seat theatre at the historic Biltmore Hotel. GableStage would work in association with Florida International University and their theatre department, working with them to provide students there with professional, real world experience. At the time of the approval, the City of Miami government waived 1.5 million dollars worth of previously accumulated building violation fees.
This plan was rivaled by a proposal for creating a 700-seat theatre at the space. The group presenting this proposal was led by Mike Eidson, trust chairman at the Adrienne Arsht Center, a large performance complex in downtown Miami. Eidson's involvement in the deal was separate from his position at the Arsht Center. Kevin Spacey was cited as a backer of the plan, with Eidson claiming that he would be interested in serving as an advisor in the project and possibly working as an artistic director upon reopening. Spacey worked in a similar position in reviving London's Old Vic Theatre. This proposal was not passed, however it is still being considered as an option. A county chairman encouraged Eidson to "postpone" his plans, suggesting that the idea is not completely out of sight.
The 700-seat theatre option has received mixed reviews. Ann Anthony, executive director of Miami's Mad Cat Theatre Company, is one of the plan's many opponents. She cited the difficulty of filling a large theatre and the presence of two large theatres nearby, the Miracle Theatre and the venues at the Adrienne Arsht Center. Many people support the plan though, hoping that with Kevin Spacey's backing that the theatre could bring in big stars and become a prominent regional theatre once again.[
After a long bidding process between 9 architecture firms, Miami-Dade county commissioners voted for Arquitectonica to restore the venue and bring it up to current building codes. $20 million in voter-approved bond money has been set aside to fund this project. The building is deemed a historical landmark so it cannot be fully demolished, but many residents are concerned that much of the building will not be preserved.
Preservation architect Richard Heisenbottle sketched a plan for the restoration of the venue that could fit the smaller 300-seat space and the 700-seat theatre proposed by Eidson, and keep most of the original exterior. Upon this development, Arquitectonica was tasked with looking into the budgetary requirements for this plan as well as how much of the historic architecture could be saved if the venue had two performance spaces.
