...Me doy cuenta que estoy muy emocionado, apenas puedo vaciar la mente. Creo que es la emoción que sólo un hombre libre puede sentir y que ha recobrado la esperanza, un hombre libre al principio de un largo viaje cuyo final es incierto...
No tengas midedo de ser diferente.
Don´t be afraid to be different.

Archive dipping I'm afraid to say guys, after a very busy few weeks, planning for the Pershore Plumb festival and fulfilling several orders for prints and imagery taken at the above event, its been a challenge to get out with the camera. Something I'm hoping to do this week, once I have a bit more energy.
I am not afraid of the darkness or the night. I'm afraid of the silence - where there is nothing to hide me from my own screaming thoughts...
I'm afraid I'm not feeling hugely inspired at the moment, so here's another button from my collection. It dates from the late 19th Century and it's quite large at 1½" across. The button is leaning against a (barely visible) vintage Sylko cotton reel and I added in a few of my trusty Hydrangea flowers for good measure.
I've walked these streets a thousand times
Your death will never set colder
Compromised a thousand times
To the will of a vicious mind
Scarecrow's hood has been upgraded to reddish brown, but more importantly... I finally found some Batman CMF's. Catman's cowl and belt go splendidly with the suit from the Ra's set, and I threw in the gas mask head for good measure.
I'm afraid I still feel as thought I've been riding a Clydesdale twice a day for five hours. I just don't remember doing it or why I got talked into it. That's the way I feel: I want to feel like Sammy looked so many years ago.
Thanks for all the well wishes, but this looks like a long haul and, wouldn't you know it, every pain doc in the west is sitting on a beach in the Carribbean. Oh, did I tell you, that my Clydesdale is carved from boulders at Ruby Beach in Washington State. With any luck there are sprinal decompression shots in my future no later than Wednesday!
This is what inspired me to make this creation:

I take delivery of my new rover...
Me: "Hi there, John!"
Honest John: "Good to see you, Mr. Frost. Howya doin? Ah, okay. So didya bring a trade-in?"
Me: "Yeah, guy just took it away a couple seconds ago..."
Honest John: "Well, lets get to it, then."
Me: "Okay. You know, we were afraid the new one wouldn't come in time. We have a big trip planned you know..."
Honest John: "Well, there she is!"
Me: "Where?"
Honest John: "Right here, the wagon."
Jonah: "Dad, this is not the rover you ordered!"
Me: "Take it easy, Jonah. John, this is not the rover I ordered. I distinctly ordered the Arctic Blue SuperSports Rover. With the CB and the optional Rally Fun Pack?"
Honest John: "You didn't order the metallic pea?"
Me: "Metallic pea?! No! Arctic blue! The Sports Rover. This isn't even the right model!"
Honest John: "You know, I think you're right. I don't think this is the rover. This is the new Wagon Queen Family Rovster. This is a darn fine rover, if you want my honest opinion, it beats the heck out of the Sports Rover. But I want to make you happy, huh? .... Benny! I'll get to the bottom of this.
Benny: "Yes, Mr. Honest John?"
Honest John: "Mr. Frost ordered a blue Sports Rover. Where is it?"
Benny: "I don't know, sir."
Honest John: "I know what must have happened! It didn't come in!"
Me: "John, I'm not your ordinary, everyday fool, okay? Now I'd like my arctic blue SuperSports Rover right now. And if you can't get it for me, I'll take my business elsewhere. Where's my old rover?"
Honest John: "I'm just as upset as you are, believe me. Benny! Get Mr. Frost's rover...bring it back here! ... Now I can get you the Sports Rover, there's no problem there. But the problem is it might take six weeks. Now I owe it to myself to tell you, Mr. Frost, that if you are thinking of taking a trip, this is the rover you should be using. The Wagon Queen Family Rovster. You think you hate it now...but wait till you drive it! "
Me: "I don't want to drive it, I just want my old rover back, oaky? I'm not falling for this bit. No way. Let's go Jonah!"
Benny: "Mr. Honest John? I can't get Mr. Frost his old rover back, because you see sir, uh.... we already disintergrated it!"

So I guess I'm stuck with this thing now. So much for my Valentine's surprise!
Oh, well...
Strange place, strange people, strange language, strange customs.
Travel can broaden your horizons but it can also be a little scary.
Wellington, Somerset, UK.
Don't be afraid - most of us don't bite.

I am afraid I've forgotten pretty much all my entomology since I left the prépa, and I the book I used for determination isn't there either. So this little guy and his colleagues will remain nameless for a while. Anyways, these bugs pictures were taken using a set of autofocus extension tubes from China recently. I expected the auofocus to have a hard time with distances out of the lens' specifications but no, it works just fine. And since there are so many insects of all sorts around here - beautiful butterflies & a lot more - it's really a whole lot of fun.
Thank you everyone for your visits, faves and comments, they are always appreciated :)
Spring arrived but the weather is aweful here. We have a lot of rain and it's cold and grey. So yesterday I was looking through my pictures to find a photo that would satisfy my needs...
Wishing you all a colourful day and a Happy Feathery Friday!
When I was eight, I was attacked...brutally attacked by a rooster..
I was chasing after a cat in a field..and a rooster filled with demons ran after me...
It seriously scratched my back and i was bleeding
it also scarred my heart.
forever.
Oh yeah, and we ate him the next night :X
One thing in life that I'm not afraid of is color. Maybe I embrace color so much because I'm an artist or maybe because I grew up in Detroit; the home of pink gators.
