Wednesday - MSSESD

 

This was supposed to be for yesterday! i'm not actually that pleased with how this turned out. It started off strong, but then i went downtown to check out a pooch parade and when i got back i sort of forgot about it. So i tried to finish it up quickly last night, but whatEVER. I couldn't get the lighting right or the pose or anything else, but pretend i didn't just say any of that and ENJOY!

July 28, 2010: A massive Great White Shark has invaded downtown Silver Spring, MD.....or so it appears. This is the second time in four years that the Discovery Channel is promoting Shark Week by erecting a three-story high, inflatable shark on the facade of its headquarters. The float is 446 feet long, and attached to all four sides of the building. The shark's name is "Chompie". Chompie's head is facing the Silver Spring Metro station, so when you get off the Metro you will see Chompie's business end and depending were you are, you will see 0 or 1 or both of his Pectoral (side) Fins. His tail is hanging over Georgia Ave. Finally his Dorsal (top) Fin was atop the building.* Chompie will only be afloat until the 1st week of August. Shark Week begins August 1 The Discovery Communications building is located at 1 Discovery Place, Silver Spring, MD 20910.

 

*Update: It turns out the Chompie's Dorsal (top) fin broke during the violent storms that passed through the Washington D.C. Metro area on Sunday July 25, 2010. It has been sent out for repair :). Thanks to the Discovery Communications for taking me go up to roof for a different perspective on Chompie :) [07282010-006-C.PS.S5IS]

In honor of Discovery Channel's Shark Week. This is a card protector I bought a few years ago that guards the top of my monitors at work. I thought the red chair seemed and obvious environment for him to pose on. Such a cutie.

This is fancy Fleur de Sel Peanut Brittle, but I'm more impressed by my shark fin than my candy-making skills.
