When I entered this forest in North Wales I felt like I'd stepped into the Amazon rainforest. Faint mist (actually low cloud), moisture in the air almost visible, ancient trees... and so much moss. The location was an opportunistic find by Danny Kenealy of Landscape Locations, who pulled off the road 'because he liked the mix of trees in the forest alongside us, and the conditions looked right'. We climbed over the gate to a forest track, ambled a few metres off the track, and there we were, in a different world. Magical.
Amiens (Somme) - Musée de Picardie - "La Lutte de l'homme contre la femme" dit aussi "Hercule contre les Amazones" (Emile Bernard, Lille, 1868 - Paris, 1941)
Huile sur toile, 1927
Cette oeuvre énigmatique est emblématique du retour au classicisme qu'Emile Bernard effectue au début du XXe siècle, après s'être illustré aux côtés de Gauguin et des Nabis dans les années 1880-1890.
Dans une lettre de 1927, Bernard confesse les difficultés qu'il rencontre dans la réalisation de ce tableau.
La composition complexe, où s'enchevêtrent les corps dans une lutte sans merci, traduit encore les préoccupations qui avaient été les siennes dans la réalisation du "Cycle humain", ensemble de toiles monumentales peintes de 1921 à 1926.
Cette scène violente et saturée est exceptionnelle dans son oeuvre d'ordinaire apaisé.
Au-delà du thème de la guerre des sexes, l'artiste, en butte à l'incompréhension de la société, s'incarne ici dans le héros viril qui affronte l'hostilité d'une marée humaine qui ne manquera pas de l'engloutir.

Amazon Silence
Near the estuary of the Amazon River, the water cuts a wide swath through a very sparsely populated land. One morning, I sat by the riverbank next to our camp watching and listening to the world unfold before me. The river moved by slowly but what was very unusual was the silence that surrounded me. The normal jungle cacophony was not to be heard. The thick, overcast clouds seemed to function as a blanket over the entire region snuffing out all sound so that it felt like there was a weighted stillness to the air. The silence was so pronounced that it was as if I could feel it pressing in around me. The grey scale of the image helped to create the feeling of desolation and silence that I was feeling.
... Victoria amazonica is the largest of the Nymphaeaceae family of water lilies... the species has very large leaves, up to 3m in diameter, that float on the water's surface ... the flowers, upto 40cm in diameter, are white the first night they are open and become pink the second night ... they are pollinated by beetles.

footnote: the flower was white when photographed ... a tint was added in post editing.
I take pictures every time you walk. Strolling beneath the hill forest, encountered such a picturesque tree.
Hoje é o Dia Mundial do Meio Ambiente e a Amazônia, embora vital para o equilíbrio ambiental global, ainda enfrenta atraso significativo nas condições de saneamento e desenvolvimento humano de seus povos que são impactados pelas sérias deficiências e infraestrutura básica que afetam diretamente na qualidade de viva, saúde e doença de sua população.
Environment in the Amazon
Today is World Environment Day and the Amazon, although vital for global environmental balance, still faces significant delays in the sanitation and human development conditions of its people, who are impacted by serious deficiencies in basic infrastructure that directly affect the quality of life, health and illness of its population.

The Giant River Otter is the largest otter in the world. Sadly they are now rarer than jaguars. They can reach up to 170 cm in length and live in large, social family groups that sleep, play and hunt together. They are vocal and territorial. Its Latin name, Pteronura, refers to its flat tail. Every otter has different neck markings, a bit like our fingerprints. I thought this one had amazing teeth.
Here is the full diorama of all four Amazon builds created for mine and Bartu's Amazon collaboration!
First of all: Be sure to check out the Full Video of this build! This includes Bartu's masterful compositions, which is how this collaboration really comes alive! Don't miss it! :D
Hope you've enjoyed this collaboration! It has been quite a different one, working in two separate mediums, but I really want to thank Bartu for initiating this! It's been a very fun, interesting and intense month! Thanks!
One last thing: You seriously need to check out the VIDEO result of this collab to see how the music and lego builds work together. If not, you will just be seeing half of it :)

It fits 2 figs. (I'll post a pic of the figures later as well as an interior shot.) I'll also try and post a comparison shot if I can.
Cheers!
