I guess the time has finally come, I went until 10 p.m. tonight without thinking about this project (usually I worry about it/plan all day). When I finally remembered, I set into a panic. Immediately bokeh came to mind, and I frantically ran around the house gathering supplies.
My mom got this figurine while she was in Iceland, I believe. It's appropriate for tonight because we've been playing a lot of Risk around here lately.

I also want to make a set like one he made...
In fact, as Tarantino said:
Great artists steal, they don't do homages. I'm not a great Artist, but well... I hope I can steal in anyway ;)

York Minster, also known as 'The Cathedral and Metropolitical Church of St Peter in York'.
There has been a church in York dedicated to St Peter since the 630s, with a stone church built by Oswald of Northumbria in 637. This church was developed in the 670s with the addition of a school and library (a Minster being an Anglo-Saxon missionary teaching church); in 741 the building burned down and was rebuilt, holding 30 altars. During the Anglo-Saxon period (when York was Eoforwic), and then Viking period (Jorvik) there were a series of Benedictine Archbishops including including Wulfstan (d. 956), Saint Oswald (d.992), and Ealdred (d. 1069).
The cathedral was damaged in 1069 and repaired in 1070 by its first Norman archbishop, Thomas of Bayeux (d. 1100); in 1075 the church was destroyed by the Danes, but rebuilt from 1080, the new building was in the Norman style, with white and red rendering.
Following being made Archbishop of York in 1215, Walter de Gray (d. 1255) ordered the construction of a gothic structure. Work began in 1220, with the North and South Transepts completed in the 1250s in the Early English Gothic Style. The Chapter House was began in the 1260s, completed 1296; the nave was began in 1280s, building on Norman foundations, the outer roof was built in the 1330s, with the vaulting completed in 1360s. The choir (the last Norman structure) was demolished in 1390s, and was replaced 1405. The Central (Lantern) Tower was built from 1420 (replacing a c.13th tower that collapsed in 1407); the towers on the West Front were built 1432-72, after which the Minster was consecrated.
Because of the length of time taken to build the Minster, the architecture shows the development of the Gothic style from Early English to Perpendicular.
I woke up one day and realized I'd never read any of Bruce Sterling's fiction (except for the Difference Engine, which he only co-authored.) So I swept through Borderlands and picked up all of his novels I could find. This is the first one I read, and I gotta say, it was brilliant! Also shockingly prescient: written in 1998, but takes place mostly in a flood-and-hurricane-ravaged Louisiana. Usually near-future sci-fi gets dated very quickly. Not so with this one. Highly recommended!

Mainit-Mabugnaw Guadalupe Cave
Upon reaching the site, one sees life-size statues of saints and Christ and crosses strewn all over the area. These are remnants of a plan of former First Lady Imelda Marcos to have these caves transformed into shrines where pilgrims can visit. The statues had been brought thereby by helicopters but in the transport, the icons fell. This is the reason why some parts of these icons are broken. But there are still some statues that are intact. Some are placed inside the mouth of the first cave, kneeling and seeming to await an arrival from above, where light from a rooftop- hole floods the cave. The cave reminds one of a cathedral where birds and bats fly and glide by large stalactites and stalagmites that protrude everywhere. The ground is filled with snails, bird droppings and caterpillar-like creepers that had died and dried up. This cave has three sun-roots where the birds and bats go in and out while a statue of the Sto. NiƱo guards the place.
