This is one of the many stumps that I came across while hiking through the woods. When I saw this "splintered" stump, I thought that it would make a interesting Black and white. I usually take the picture with no intention of it being B&W. With this photo I actually pictured it being a B&W before I took it. This is the second to last in this series. Just thought that I would give a heads up in case you were tired of seeing the woods.

Per the Destination Guide:-
"Strike it rich in a desert world where precious spices can be gathered from the sands. Grab the HUD and game system here, which allows players to gather the spice and acquire valuable skills. Currently six regions are yours to explore, so if spice mining is not your thing then there's plenty of other cool sci-fi action."

Really like the new Brickmania stickers. The quality is great and they look really good. The arm stickers are kind of hard to get stay on properly, but the torsos are great.
Here's the first pass at this. I used a Tan BA helmet but need to do a bit more work and perhaps paint the helmet light grey before applying the decals. Feedback appreciated.
Recently, over the last couple of months, I have taken some Mondays off work expressly to get out and do some land art. The idea being that some of the places I's like to go will be quieter with everyone back at work. That isn't how it had been at all.
A few months ago we went to Robin Hood's Bay and a party of school kids moved in next to us. Last week we went to Heysham beach and the same thing happened and today as we drove up the lane to where you park there was another school party heading onto the fell we were aiming for. But we got ahead of them and didn't see them again all day.
After the strong winds of the ascent it was a surprise to find it much calmer at the top and so I set about balancing some rocks.
The first was an attempt to complete this and over and over I had to hold the whole thing up as it wobbled all over the place. It took me a good ten minutes to realise why. I was kneeling on one of the rocks it was all stacked on. Talk about making it as difficult as possible! I didn't get a photo of that one but I did get a lot of wobbly stack action on video, to be posted another day.
I changed venue and went over to a handsome boulder. This time the breeze had picked up so I would need to be a little careful especially as the stacks were high enough to be difficult to get the top layers on and this meant I would be in a vulnerable position if they were to topple. Still it is good to be focussed on what you are doing.
I collected the rocks I needed and I gathered some little ones and put them in my pocket. This is the bit you don't see the endless searching, collecting and humping about of rock. It certainly isn't the case that I just pick up a few and build something with them. Most of my stacks consist of specially chosen stones, often ones that are difficult to find and not plentiful. It isn't obvious but I am trying to reflect this in each stack, that there are certain shaped stones in a place that you may not notice immediately. The splinters of rock is one example, the triangles another. Finding uniform ones, ones of the same height and most importantly ones with reasonably flat edges so they will stay upright can take a lot of time and effort. But then that is what my land art is all about. Getting a deeper understanding of a place by seeing what is there and searching for things. I have the goal of resultant sculpture in mind and I need that goal to get me to study the materials and eveything about that place, to immerse myself in it. So there is more to it than just what you see. The journey I took up the point where I got the photo you see is the important for me and it is that that draws me back again and again.
And the fact that it is a whole lot of fun too!
There was quite a bit going on on the fell today. Land rovers going up and down the track and a dumper putting new gravel onto the shooters track. Seems that they are gearing up for the hoorays to go and shoot some defenceless birds. Shame. Why people can't appreciate wildlife without having to kill it first is beyond me.
My favourite F-15...... Ever!!
Well worth the trip from snowy Norwich, Norfolk, uk. To sunny, cloudless blue skies of Nellis afb, Las vegas, Nevada. USA

This is me, a self-portrait taken with my old systematic film camera, I guess I was around 20 years old when I snapped it...
This was My friend Sue´s favorite picture of me because I looked like Brad Pit on it according to her... (she liked B.P.)
The Jumper or pullover I do remember quite clearly it was a hemp-product I bought it somewhere close to studiestræde in Copenhagen on a sale in the hemp product shop...
I remember I gave it away years later to someone who really loved it (can´t remember who)
Peace and Noise!

He came back later with his walker he had mounted arms on it since he took it from the tunnel system in Bulgaria...
Then he walked it to the point where he had last fled...
Then datta-datta-datta he started the mini-gun splinters of wood was flying through the air...
...the old house was totally holed then he ran out of ammo, well only to the mini-gun the flamer had a full canister of hyper-flammable ammo left...
Jimmy Though: this hell gets a really fitting end burning in hellfire....
Then he stood there watching the flames for a while, He remembered his childhood at the Saint Hans bonfire, no wait it wasn´t his memory it was Johnny´s!
