The marvelous machine stood in the Baroque restaurant in Salento, Colombia. Why a restaurant that had 3 tables and 12 seats would need a coffee machine like this, I do not know. Maybe they got it at a garage sale.
Not much to say other than everything is awesome with this guy!
The comparison of my old dragon built back in 2010, from the film "How to Train your Dragon".
Resembling a nightmarish beast rearing its head from a crimson sea, this monstrous object is actually an innocuous pillar of gas and dust. Called the Cone Nebula, or NGC 2264, this giant pillar resides in a turbulent star-forming region.
This picture shows the upper 2.5 light-years of the nebula, a height that equals 23 million roundtrips to the Moon. The entire nebula is 7 light-years long.
Radiation from hot, young stars (located beyond the top of the image) has slowly eroded the nebula over millions of years. Ultraviolet light heats the edges of the dark cloud, releasing gas into the relatively empty region of surrounding space. There, additional ultraviolet radiation causes the hydrogen gas to glow, which produces the red halo of light seen around the pillar. A similar process occurs on a much smaller scale to gas surrounding a single star, forming the bow-shaped arc seen near the upper left side of the Cone. This arc, seen previously with Hubble, is 65 times larger than the diameter of our solar system. The blue-white light from surrounding stars is reflected by dust. Background stars can be seen peeking through the evaporating tendrils of gas, while the turbulent base is pockmarked with stars reddened by dust.
Over time, only the densest regions of the Cone will be left. Inside these regions, stars and planets may form.

In April 1973 it was still easy for a small sailboat (a 6.50m Golif) to find a place in the port of St Tropez. It is now impossible or by accepting the risk of seeing its hull crushed by one of these monstrous yachts that now frequent this place.

"Arrivée dans le port de Saint-Tropez."
En avril 1973 il était encore relativement facile, pour un petit voilier (un Golif de 6,50m), de trouver une place dans le port de St Tropez. C'est désormais impossible ou en prenant le risque de voir sa coque écrasée par un de ces yachts monstrueux qui fréquentent cet endroit.
Monstrous menace from THE TERROR BEYOND TIME!
“Follow me, Fear Fanciers . . . we’re going deep within an abandoned mineshaft in the Southwest . . . although abandoned is a misleading word, because from here it’s not such a long step until we’re face to face with . . . The Terror Beyond Time.” [From the introduction by Uncle Creepy]

The Greek hero Perseus pursues the monstrous gorgons around the sides of this Athenian black-figure kyathos (wine ladle). In Greek mythology, Perseus, trapped in a foolish boast, was compelled to obtain the head of the gorgon Medusa, whose gaze turned men to stone. Here Perseus, identified by his winged cap and boots, runs along with his sword drawn. The three gorgon sisters with their winged female bodies and horrifying faces are only slightly distinguished from one another in this unusual portrayal of the myth. Typically, Perseus sneaks up on the sleeping gorgons to behead Medusa, and then the two remaining sisters chase him. This is the only example of this scene on Attic kyathoi.
A kyathos is a dipper used to ladle wine from large mixing vessels. The shape entered the Athenian pottery repertoire from Etruria, and Athenian artists decorated the foreign shape primarily for export back to Etruria. On this kyathos, as on many of the time, the black-figure decoration was not applied on the natural reddish clay of the vessel but on a specially prepared white slip.

Sleeping Beauty Castle, Disneyland
I skipped most of the Monstrous Summer 24 hour all nighter. Mostly because of what happened last year during One More Disney Day; those conditions were not repeated this time.
I showed up around 3:00 a.m. with hopes to capture some sunrise photos, and with the wish that I could pull a Disbrow off.
When I got to Sleeping Beauty Castle the entire front was lit for the filming of Good Morning America. This, along with the cloud covered sky, ruined those hopes. But with the castle so bright, and so perfectly lit, it made for a surreal sight against the back sky.

Humans inhumanity to nature knows no bounds.
The Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre (HESC), situated on the western border of the Greater Kruger, does what its title suggests but unlike the many other animals it cares for, these scavengers are not captive. Wild Vultures, Maribou Stork and other carrion birds fly in to gorge at the daily avian feeding frenzy.
This is no tawdry tourist attraction. The horrific reason HESC offers a carrion buffet is because poachers, not content simply to kill larger game, particularly rhinos, have in the last few years, taken to poisoning the target animal's carcass. The reason is to ensure that the carrion birds do not give away the presence or position of one of their kills so the poachers have time to make off. So many carrion birds are now being killed that they too are becoming endangered. The vultures play a critical role in the eco-system because they have stomach acid so strong that they can eat meat infected with diseases like foot and mouth without any ill effects. This ability helps stop diseases spreading amongst the wider animal populations. For the sake of poaching one rhino or elephant, the cost in animal lives is dozens of carrion birds and potentially catastrophically more in the wider herbivore population.
Sick short-sighted stupidity beyond measure.
The illustration on the cover is for Curt Siodmak's "The Eggs from Lake Tanganyika," the story of entomology gone wild and the emergence of monstrous flies.
Monstrous 4-section AC electric locomotive built by NEVZ. With continuous power output rated at 12240 kW, this locomotive is the world's most powerful one. 4ES5K's will serve in Eastern Russia regions with steep gradients and extra heavy freight trains.
I walk beside these hulking, monstrous, silent sentinels, and I know that when I breath my last breath, when my heart beats its last pump of drug diluted blood, and my body becomes part of this sludge we call "Home", they'll resurrect me. Emotionless and without thought, that which is the only thing that liberates me from the oppression they call life down here, I'll be reprogrammed like a piece of circuitry.
They tell you when you sign up that in order for society to make its strides towards success and progress everyone must walk in the same direction. For anyone to gain that nirvana that awaits once you clock out one last time would be to take two steps backwards. We all know that's just bullshit, but the pay is good, and the drugs let us get one step closer to that relief we all seek. The high is cheap, but so is life.
So I walk side by side, with some curse soul. Repairing the infrastructure made for the rich, and maintained by the scum.
I'll never understand its pain, but it can't even understand the word "pain". It's some kind of fucked-up joke really. No longer can I use the future to escape the reality in which I live like I did when I was younger. Because I see my future beside me. It's physical. It's as real as me. The second I signed that contract, I signed my life, actually my death, away to some corporation as lifeless, cold and ugly as the goblin I call my guardian down here in the abyss.
Inspired by the likes of Babiru, Bioshock's Big Daddy Concepts, and Carter Baldwin's Grunt Hardsuit builds. It's built to look ugly on purpose. I really wanted to use that center piece after getting a couple of the old Exo Force sets. Enjoy.
Geologists claim that the canyons in Utah are a result of wind and rain that erode the layers of rock. What they are hiding from the public is that an hideous ancient species of marauding stone slug periodically emerges from the rock and 'grazes' through the landscape, creating the complex system of canyonlands that this area is famous for. These horrific geologic rock mollusks are surprisingly fast and will devastate anything in their path.
I risked it all when I stumbled upon one of the monstrous creatures, squeezing off a single shot from a Pentax 6 X 7 film camera before fleeing to save my life. I plan to submit this photographic proof to the news outlets, exposing the government coverup and finally revealing the truth to the public!
This photo was taken by an Asahi Pentax 6 X 7 medium format film camera and Super-Multi-Coated Takumar/6X7 1:4.5/75 lens with a HOYA HMC 82mm O[G]) filter using Adox CHS 100 II film, the negative scanned by an Epson Perfection V600 and digitally rendered with Photoshop.

Taken yesterday on South Mountain after a monstrous storm swept through the city.
Bumphead parrotfish grow up to a monstrous length of 1.4 meters and can weigh up to 50 kilos which makes them both the largest and heaviest of all parrotfish species.
They grow slow and can live up to 40 years with a huge bump on their head and a hard beak for breaking off and chomping up coral.
This small gang was part of a larger group of between 40 and 60 fish doing laps of there reef drop off. They we quite shy and it took some time to get close enough for a shot.
The monstrous skull of an Allosaurus, a large bipedal predator from the late Jurassic period.
Another shot taken with G1 and 45mm f/1.8 lens (now becoming my favorite lens), another museum and another search for creative angles.
What monstrous threat could bring together a wizard, a kung fu master, and an immortal valkyrie? The journey of the Defenders is about to begin.
I started developing this earlier in the year, and actually shot quite a bit of it before the summer. The Defenders was originally going to be one brickfilm, but as I started working on the script I realised it had the potential to be a series.
This is deliberately quite fun and comical, as the series is an homage primarily the original Defenders comics from the '60s that I had been reading at the time. They're quirky, full of mystical weirdnesses, and heavy on needless exposition, all of which I've tried to make fit in this series too (to varying degrees of success).

These monstrous machines were first spotted in the battle for Tarsus during the colonization of the outer rim of planets in the Dark Quadrant. Looming well above the conventional mechs of the assaulting human forces these spider tanks instilled a sense of fear on the battle field. Armed with twin plasma cannons plus a hefty missile box, not to mention deadly manipulator's designed to shred anything in sight, these machines are most certainly the reason the humans eventually sought to inhabitant less desirable planets elsewhere.
A large mech for me. Learned a lot while building it. Took this shot in the tub, because black looks good on white - although I think it needs a scene/ better lighting. A more side shots with guns raised.
On 13/05/20, what with the new guidance permitting unlimited exercise, I went to see some trains! This afternoon I headed to Willington, on the Stoke line, where the pole came in handy to 'phot Colas 37099 'Merl Evans' powering by top and tail with 37219, working the 1Z43 Derby RTC to Crewe CS Network Rail test, including test coach 975091 'MENTOR'. The cooling towers of the long-disused Willington Power Station dominate the horizon. Taken at full reach of 7m with the pole. Unfortunately, I forgot to set the continuous shutter setting in the Canon app, so this was the only shot I got and needed to be cropped quite a bit!
The Skye Terrier who spent 14 years of his life guarding the grave of his deceased owner is commemorated with this statue outside the Greyfriars cemetery in the centre of Edinburgh. Roaring up behind is another part of Edinburgh’s folklore, a representative of the ‘Monstrous Masses of Shivering Tin’ that reduced one city councillor to apoplexy as they were drafted in to replace Edinburgh’s beloved trams.
Edinburgh City Transport LFS446 belongs to the original 1954 batch of Leyland PD2/20s, whose spartan MetroCammell bodywork provoked the councillor’s ire. At the date of this photograph, withdrawal of the LFS-batch was well under way, many finding second homes with independent operators. Edinburgh took delivery of some 300 of the breed between 1954 and 1957, with at least three examples surviving in preservation.
I had long wanted to update this photograph with a modern representative of today’s Lothian Transport fleet, but in truth I had forgotten the whereabouts of the Greyfriars Bobby memorial, popular tourist attraction though it is. Maybe next time in Auld Reekie?

“Out of the sky came a monstrous brood to threaten the human race and strike terror into the heart of England.”
One of only three issues in this magazine series, most likely cut short by the Second World War which, in England, began in September 1939. Paper rationing may have contributed to the demise of this 7"x10", 128-page pulp magazine.
All the pets have been let loose, Frankie's hand has gone MIA, Olivia's hair is a mess, and the exhibit is still not ready...
These planes are monstrous in size and when they fly overhead they really make a lot of noise. A B-52 was featured in the movie "Dr. Strangelove or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb," a satiric film by Stanley Kubrick.
