Time is the substance from which I am made. Time is a river which carries me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger that devours me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire that consumes me, but I am the fire.
--Jorge Luis Borges
Cheekwood Gardens were the dessert on our vacation... and we devoured it all.
btw.. this was in honor of the King: double chocolate cake with peanut butter icing and a scoop of homemade banana ice cream.

The scant remains of a pigeon in the churchyard at Steeple Claydon, Buckinghamshire. I guess due to a fox.
I'm going bananas,
And I feel like my poor little mind is being devoured by piranhas,
For I'm going bananas.
I'm non compos mentes,
And I feel like a tooth being drilled, a nerve being killed by a dentist,
For I'm non compos mentes.
Who knows?
Could be the tropic heat
Or something that I eat,
That makes me gonzo.
I do carry on so, for I'm going bananas,
Someone book me a room in the hot haciendo with all my mananas
For I'm going bananas.
From latest wave of Chinese (SY) bootleg minifigures. This wave is great quality (relatively speaking) and you have to give them some credit for giving us some unique designs, some long wanted characters and great headgear.
This one is Galactus. This is my favorite of the 16 figures that came out in this recent SY wave. They even did a nice job on the face - his square-pupiled eyes showing perfectly through the helmet. The one on the right is how he comes. On the left, I swapped out for official Lego arms (SY arms have those broad shoulders).
Day 95: I think I've said before my duaghter devours books. This is her natural state when not actively doing something - head buried in a book. She has almost grown out of destroying the sofa, but not quite, and I realise it's now looking a bit tatty (but blowed if I'm spending money on a new one until they stop clambering all over it!).
this turned out to be quite a technical shot. The best light came from bounce off the ceiling but that left a lot of the hair in shadow, so I ended up with a large white board (about 18x30 inches) resting on my knee to fill in light on the hair. Worked quite well, didn't need much tweaking at all in lightroom to get the final effect.

Blessings on the lion if a human devours it, making the lion human.
Cursed is the human if a lion devours it, making the lion human.
Jean-Baptist Carpeaux
French, 1827-1875
Ugolino and His Sons, 1860, cast c. 1871
Bronze
The dramatic and macabra subject of this sculpture is based on a description found in Dante's Inferno, Ugolino, condemned to starvation, staves off hunger by devouring the bodies of his dead sons. The moment depicted is pregnant with tension and drama. Ugolino is in anguish as his sons desperately plead to sacrifice themselves rather than watch their father suffer. When the sculpture was made, the French Academy attacked Carpeaux's emphasis on the male nude, as well as the bizarre theme. The controversy around Ugolino boosted Carpeaux's career, leading to a number of prominent commissions and securing an ongion demand for reproductions of this work. A plaster version of the work is in the Reves Collection on the Museum's third floor.
