You will not find any other place in the world that celebrates the ever-mutating and incredible power of water like Rome. The Trevi Fountain is a fantastic work of art that is much more than a mere sculpture.
This triumphant example of Baroque art with its soft, natural lines and fantasy creatures embodies movement as the soul of the world. The fountain is a true wonder, a jewel of water and stone that is nestled between the palaces of the historic centre of the city.
Trevi Fountain You can already hear its presence from the nearby streets. Indeed, as you get nearer the sound of its gushing waters grows constantly more intense, reaching a crescendo in the square, where you will find the most breathtaking sight.
Suddenly, the space seems to open out and you stand before a symbolic representation of this great force of nature, a tumultuous spring that seems to flow out of the ground.
The light and shade effects on the marble make the wind seem to bellow through the drapes and locks of the statues, agitating the waves, creating an extraordinarily intense and spectacular scene. In this Baroque creation, the architecture itself seems to come alive with the current of the revitalising waters.
Even the palace in the background blends perfectly with the compositionand the game of space and mass gives an air of movement to the entire statue. The central feature of the monument is a chariot in the shape of a shell, drawn by seahorses with Triton as their guide. Before the enormous central niche stands Oceanus. To the side are the statues of Abundance and Salubrity. All around, natural and artificial forms merge together in a representation of rocks and petrified vegetation that run along the foundation of the palace and around the borders of the pool, which represents the sea.
Trevi Fountain This unique statue has an ancient history. Its origins go back to Roman timesand it was the terminal point of the Aqua Virgo aqueduct commissioned by Augustus, which was used to provide water for the thermal baths. The water that flows here has two names: Virgin Waters and Trevi.
The first refers to an ancient legend about a young Roman girl who showed the source of the spring to some thirsty soldiers; whereas Trevi derives from the old name for the area,which was originally called Trebium.
The aqueduct continued to function, even though it was necessary to wait until the eighteenth century when Pope Clement XII decided to restore the Trevi district and began work on the fountain we know today. It took three centuries to complete and is often attributed to Bernini, but for the most part it is the work of the Roman architect, Nicola Salvi, who took twenty years to complete it.
La Dolce Vita This work of art is so famous that even cinema has commemorated it on more than one occasion.
Everyone remembers the scene in the renowned Italian film, "La Dolce Vita" by Fellini; on a quiet night in an almost unreal Rome, an alluring Anita Ekberg jumps into the Trevi Fountain with her clothes on and invites Marcello Mastroianni to join her.

There is also another curious tradition regarding the Trevi Fountain. It is said that if you throw a coin over your shoulder into the water, you will be sure to return to Rome. An estimated 3,000 euros in coins are thrown into the fountain every day.

Shiela was a normal cockatiel until an encounter with ZELDA GAS (huh?) killed her owner and mutated her into a giant monster! Shiela tried to destroy the source of ZELDA GAS (still huh?), but fought Ultraman Tiga along the way. THough interestingly, Shiela succeeded in the end, and Tiga didn't kill her, instead letting the giant mutant parrot fly off to safety.
The spelling just bugs me.
DAY 29: “Exterminate!” - The Supreme Black Dalek
Kaleds lived on the planet Skaro, but following a nuclear conflict with the Thals, the extreme radiation of their home planet caused the Kaleds to become mutated life forms, defenceless green blobs. But an evil Kaled scientist, named Davros, developed robotic tank like armour to sustain the lives of the mutated Kaleds. They subsequently became known as Daleks, a race feared and loathed throughout eternity!
The Daleks were created by writer Terry Nation and BBC designer Raymond Cusick, appearing in December 1963 for the very first time. Straight away they became a huge hit with fans who loved them and feared them in equal measure. Daleks have become synonymous with Doctor Who and their familiar battle cry “exterminate” is woven into the very fabric of the Doctor’s history. Indeed a Doctor Who series without the Daleks feels as though something is missing.
Daleks have had some huge weaknesses including the inability to climb stairs and an apparently weak attack capability. These weaknesses were very apparent in the two 1960s movie films which showed the Doctor battling desperately against his arch enemy, the Daleks. But when Doctor Who returned in 2005 these weaknesses were taken away. Daleks became able to rise off the ground and fly and their attacks and defences were immensely stronger.
Over the decades Dalekmania has gripped Doctor Who fans of all ages, who have been united in their determination to own some memorabilia. Along with the inevitable Dalek models of various sizes, Dalek games, clocks, wall plaques, salt and pepper shakers and trading cards have been produced. Daleks even appeared on a postage stamp celebrating popular British culture in 1999, photographed by Lord Snowdon.
Following the Daleks return in 2005 many new Doctor Who products have been released onto the market. In particular the Dalek products have been extremely popular. Today’s image of the Supreme Black Dalek is the most popular Doctor Who product released since 2005, the twelve inch radio controlled Dalek model, complete with multiple Dalek phrases. I have no doubt that this will become a huge collectors item in the decades to come, but for me just owning a Dalek is a dream come true, big kid that I am…
Note: this Dalek was purchased near the start of this challenge and I have been running lighting tests since this time to find the best configuration. This image was shot against a white background in my light tent, though the top of the light tent was completely blacked out with black velvet because in my tests reflections on the top of the Dalek ruined the image. Two flash heads were used positioned behind the Dalek and firing their light across the Dalek from each side giving a kind of glancing light, which helped to avoid any hotspots etc. I run a lot of tests using different shutter speeds because I wanted to ensure that the blue light didn’t start to spray out and remained in it’s circle. The camera was mounted on a tripod and a cable release was used.
I cut out the Dalek from the white background and base and discarded these white areas [the white background helped to give the Dalek a lighter rim around it’s edges which helped it to stand out from the resulting black background]. In Photoshop I created a new layer and filled it with black, using this new layer as the background. I processed the Dalek, opening up darker shadow areas where required. Following this I duplicated the Dalek layer and cross processed it E6/C41 and after tweaking it I reduced the opacity of this layer down to 16%. This gave the Dalek a much better look and far more mysterious feel.)

Africa on the Square Trafalgar Square London Oct 15 2016 Kasai Masai with Nickens Nkoso Congo Band from DRC and Diamond Mutate from the Cameroon
A BIONICLE Draganoid, just on a larger scale. But, in his story, it says...
"In an alternate universe, Radon the Draganoid was walking along with his two freinds, when a Krana-beast struck. The beast decapatated Radon's freinds, and aimed for him. The beast ran at Radon, but Radon fell into a pit of Radioactive waste, mutating him. He killed the Krana-beast, and then stalked the island of Metru Nui, searching for Krana beasts to kill, and Draganoids to befreind. So far, he has failed at both. But, seeing a potential ally, Teridax took Radon in. But Radon bit Teridax's hand, and it mutated into a larger size. Now, shadow energy from Teridax's body has turned Radon evil. Can anyone stop him?"

The light and shade effects on the marble make the wind seem to bellow through the drapes and locks of the statues, agitating the waves, creating an extraordinarily intense and spectacular scene. In this Baroque creation, the architecture itself seems to come alive with the current of the revitalising waters.
Even the palace in the background blends perfectly with the compositionand the game of space and mass gives an air of movement to the entire statue.

First time I've tried to frame anything 'properly'. It went ok.
This looks like a mutated fly to me (it just started off as an abstract design).

He got mutated... and he does not look to happy about it.
Flickr will only let me upload two hundred photos unless I upgrade to pro, which I won't. I was wondering if I upload more than 200 will the one that disappear still be viewable in the set I put it in? Please comment and fave. 16

No.. they arent mutated :)
These are crabapples, the smallest of all apples. They are native to the temperate zone of the Northern Hemisphere, in Europe, Asia and North America. Crabapples are widely grown as ornamental trees, grown for their beautiful flowers or fruit, with numerous cultivars selected for these qualities and for resistance to diseases.
Many crabapple varieties aren’t good to eat until they start to get soft and reddish brown, in late fall. (But the ones we have at our apt campus are really sweet!!!)
More details here: crabapple
Some flickr bug spoiled the medium size of this pic after its been here for a day or so, started appearing in a sepia tone all of a sudden, so had to re-upload it :(
I really like the Scarox mask, and wanted to do something cool with it... So I made this! I actually like it!
Constructive criticism is appreciated!

MUTATE BRITAIN
ONE FOOT IN THE GROVE
MUTATE BRITAIN returns and heads west for its second exhibition in as many years. This herlads something of a return for the Mutoid Waste Company which was itself conceived in the very shadow of the Westway.
There will be installations and sculptures, screen-prints, stencil art, paintings, graffiti, street art, photographs, object d'art, bric a brac and renegade pottery will all be on view and for sale. As ever Mutate Britain has selected a diverse and cuttin edge crew that can adapt to their environment, mutating ideas to survive.
Some of the artwork may be challenging but we do intend for the exhibition to be child friendly and with food stalls and beer available in medieval proportions we aim to make it an entertaining family event.
