Dear all,

I've been away for a while now. I'm very busy this year and just to make things worse, I had a pretty nasty flu which hampered me considerably for nearly two months.

So it will take more time than usual to answer your comments and pay a visit to your sites. I can only apologize for these shortcommings. Please be patient with me. Best,

Radiolarians are unicellulars of diameter 0.1–0.2 mm that produce intricate mineral skeletons, typically with a central capsule dividing the cell into the inner and outer portions of endoplasm and ectoplasm.The elaborate mineral skeleton is usually made of silica. They are found as zooplankton throughout the ocean, and their skeletal remains make up a large part of the cover of the ocean floor as siliceous ooze. Due to their rapid turn-over of species, they represent an important diagnostic fossil found from the Cambrian onwards. (Source: Wikipedia)

I pledge allegiance to a democratic polity.

What lurks below?

 

Alligators? Rats? Those monsters from Aahh! Real Monsters? The mutants from Futarama? Fred Savage and the Little Monsters? A massive river of ectoplasm? Whatever is lurking down there it’s now roaming about the city now...

No manipulation of body shapes.

People really were that thin then.

As yet unmatured brains examine the heredity of psychoanalysis.

With a dose of pareidolia.

It remains true that to idealise any gender or ethnic minority is an offence, a form of dehumanising to that very grouping. People are good, bad and indifferent in roughly the same proportion whoever and whatever they are. Subgroups however, can become unhealthy combinations and concentrations.

‘SUNRISE OR DEPARTURE’ - EMIRATES SYDNEY AIRPORT

 

What’s your favourite, A6-EVJ doing the long slow taxi out to 34L at Sydney Airport (SYD/YSSY), or getting ectoplasm whilst airborne 34L Sydney Airport (SYD/YSSY) as EK415 to Dubai (DXB/OMDB)???

 

(Luckily, a clear road to get from ‘The Beach’ across to Sheps Mound, and traffic holding the A380 departure)

Pencil on paper, in a non planned way, First I thought of a slimy single-big-eye thing lurking out of an open safe box. But suddenly I saw an old fashioned phone in my mind so, consequently, I envisioned the slimy thing pourig out of the speaker. One thing led to another and that was it. It took some time, but I could draw it quite straight forward. Happy.

A woman's face appears above the heads of the women, surrounded in an ethereal-looking 'mist'.

Each photograph is purest ectoplasm,

Part of the way light creases the window-sill,

A teacup’s ring is glimmered on the table,

Kind thoughts lie pencilled in a Fairy Book.
