Over fertilized plants may be beautiful but are otherwise useless, like people whose energies are devoted so completely to their appearance that there is no other development.

Mural on a building side in downtown Des Moines, Iowa
"You can almost hear her gasp!
A blonde woman from a vintage comic strip looks in wide-eyed shock at the graffiti spreading across the wall of a building downtown. ....
Weber ....The artist is known for politically and socially charged artwork along the lines of the current exhibition he guest-curated at Moberg Gallery, which helped arrange the Workspace commission.
But the new mural’s message is more subtle, he said. The blonde woman represents “the overall American consumer” or a “more traditional” Des Moines citizen reacting to downtown’s rapid growth. Partially hidden among the graffiti tags are Dopey from Disney’s “Snow White” and a pair of Smurfs, whose woodland habitat is threatened by development.
“In any city in America, there are murals everywhere. In Oakland, you can’t go two blocks without seeing one,” Weber said, praising downtown Des Moines’ own murals by artists Chris Vance, Van Holmgren and others. “Hopefully, in another year or two, we’ll have twice as many.”
For The Teleidoscope's Week #4 theme: Develop
The first image that came to mind when I thought of this theme,was a big camera creating images that could come to life, luckily I still had my cardboard polaroid from last year which worked out perfectly!
I just want to give you all a huge thank you for helping me out with the Talenthouse Contest, I'm not sure on the final results but I was blown away by your support and kindness and I hope that one day I can repay all the good karma that directed my way :)
I really do not enjoy the process of taking sunset photos, having to be in the perfect place, at the perfect time is something I have difficulty with - and my lens being incompatible with (sensibly priced) filters doesn't exactly help either, but all in all despite the bitching, I'm pretty happy with how this one came out.

Description
The Indigenous Peoples in Canada are an inspirational example of resilience due to their ability to withstand adversity and persevere through generations of oppressive colonial policies. Historic injustices persist, including the effects of cultural genocide from the residential school system of Canada. Here we symbolize bridging the gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Peoples through gathering. Accomplished through the support of the seven grandfather teachings, represented by the seven rings of the installation, that originated with the Anishnabae Peoples, passed down through generations that ensures the survival of all Indigenous Peoples: Wisdom, Love, Respect, Bravery, Honesty, Humility, and Truth. Orange represents the National Day of Truth and Reconciliation, and the reality that the support of non-Indigenous Peoples, as Indigenous Peoples assert rights to self-determination, will strengthen relations and begin to redress the historic wrongs. Orange is displayed in the ropes where the pattern pays homage to the creation of drums, where the ropes were weaved to honour culture. The installations flow towards the lifeguard stand reinforces the strengthening of the relationship and that the protection of Canada hinges on the unity between peoples. We aim to symbolize movement to a new relationship, one based on mutual respect that honours Indigenous treaties and rights. The road forward is long and nonlinear, but we commit to take the journey together.
