“I live by the ocean
And during the night
I dive into it
Down to the bottom
Underneath all currents
And drop my anchor
As this is where I'm staying
This is my home.”
The Anchor Song | Björk
Visitors view sharks, rays and other marine life through the aptly named ‘oculus’ at the Frost Museum of Science. With the health of the earth's oceans threatened by human activities, experiences such as the one pictured can help increase a greater appreciation to conserve, protect and learn more about the marine environment, and their inhabitants.

The surface of this bubble captured my little world--everything from my driveway, to the neighborhood houses, to the sky and trees in the background. This is my little world, inside a bubble.
Getting lost on a weekend in NYC.
One of several projects, that explore photography as evidence amongst other ideas.

Taken at the end of Blue Hour, the dark clouds broke up a little and let the last light of the day through. This night the bridge was lit maroon for the State of Origin 3
When I go down the shore, I stay at a hotel about an hour inland from the beach. I know that sounds ridiculous (and it kind of is), but it has a lot to do with how expensive it is to stay close to shore, and the quality of the hotels slightly inland. But it's also because I like to go to a place called Wheaton Arts (formerly Wheaton Village). The hotel where I stay is on the grounds of Wheaton Arts. Wheaton Arts is a place that specializes in glass-making. It's in Millville, NJ which has a long history of glass-making. I believe Wheaton used to create bottles for....hmm, medicine? Not sure. But they were bottle makers. Eventually, this turned into art glass, and now glass-blowing. They make all kinds of really beautiful creations. AND you can watch them create them! In fact, you can even create one yourself. I've created my own paperweight. Here, you are looking at a glory hole (no jokes!) where they are keeping the rods hot. These rods are used to collect a "gather" of molten glass that will be blown into some kind of creation. I really liked the colors here. But I was having a heck of a time focusing on this! It's still a little soft, but I really love the colors in this shot. I don't even mind the soft focus. I kind of like it. I had the camera on a tripod, but I was kind of far away, and the light was not good. And holy cow was it hot in there! Used the zoom lens for these shots. But even with the tripod, there was some blur. Especially when I was trying to get close-ups of the glass and rod going into the glory hole. These were the best shots I got. I may or may not upload a few more.
On a completely different note, I have been working on a special project: MY OWN WEBSITE!!! I'm so excited! I'm stuck on a few things. But hopefully will get it all worked out soon. SO, if anyone has any advice on website creation, PLEASE SHARE!!! Send me a flickr mail. I am using zenfolio, and I like it. Also, if anyone looking at this has their own website, send me a link to it. I'd love to check it out! But I just might steal an idea or two! LOL Right now, I'm scoping out fonts people use for their headings and titles. I think I've chosen one. Now I just have to figure out how to make a jpg or png file out of them to use them. I'm not too good at this kind of thing. But I have to say, the site is LOOKING GOOD so far!!!! It's got a pretty slide-show on the front page. I will be sure to post a link to it on one of my uploads here when I'm ready to "go live"!!! Send me any and all advice you have! And send me links to your own websites!!!!

因为我非常喜欢去年对口鼻罩的这种解释，所以我再次展示它们，以一种衷心推荐给艺术史家的方式。
藝術史學家是否認為這是很好的表現，很容易辨認，對我來說已經沒有興趣了。
我只是想知道，一个重量超过四倍的口对口覆盖物（见抚摸圆锥体）应该如何在这样的发泡胶头上支撑起来？带配重的发泡胶头？好吧，只是尝试，这两样东西都可能被不可逆转地损坏。

Weil mir diese Interpretation der Mund-Nasen-Bedeckungen vom letzten Jahr so gut gefallen hat, zeige ich diese eben noch mal, in für Kunsthistoriker herzend empfohlener Art und Weise.
Ob dies ein Kunsthistoriker nun für Gut erkennbar, wie annehmbar präsentiert betrachtet, entzieht sich mitunter aber nun doch eher meinem Interesse.
Ich frage mich nur gerade, wie eine mehr als vier Mal schwere Mund-Nasen-Bedeckung (siehe "Zapfenstreichel") an so einem Styroporkopf halten sollte? Mit Gegengewichten für den Styroporkopf? Nun, alleine bei dem Versuch, könnten beide Sachen Irreversibel schaden nehmen.
