Mirror effect without mirrors. Held the angle to position the other stem of the orchid plant in such a way that it looks the reflection of the one in the front
A section of the woods where the sunlight was being filtered by the trees making a very striking effect.
My first day of exploration of the Droste Effect. The recursion appeals to the computer scientist in me :)
The original image is of the Campus Mall at the University of Maryland in College Park taken specifically for use with this effect. The Droste effect within the picture frame was done using Adobe® Photoshop® CS2.
Found this old photo effect and I love it! I thought this picture would be no good as it wasn't in focus but with this effect it looks like a picture taken in Russia in 1970's!
Fann þetta old photo effect á LMK og hann er bara æðislegur! Myndin er úr fókus en með þessum effekt gæti myndin hafa verið tekin à einhverri austantjaldsborg 1970 og eitthvað. Bara æðislegt!
Mirrors lie very discreetly, some women don't. But shadows have their own way of imitating reality. They only lie in Mordor. Anywhere else they try to mock more than to reflect.
Read Andersens fairy tale about the shadow who became master of his owner, watch Nosferatu, look, how little events cast their big shadows ahead, just because the sun is really down...
But no one seems to notice. We all want to rise in the shadow of great men and women. Women cultivate eye shadow, men grow a five o'clock shadow (must be an old english tradition) - and a lot of girls stop eating until they are only a shadow of their former self. And always remember how mocking, insulting, hollow and evil the soul of a shadow is.
So: Stop orientating your life towards other peoples shadows. ("We three kings from orient are"? Think about it before you sing about it.) Shadow yourself. You might be surprised what you find in the light of day - even if it's a cold one.
Be the light and the moth. Be your own light at the end of the tunnel. There's no one else who wants your shadow. You have to live with it. But you can control it - if you control yourself.

Muqdadiya, Diyala Province, Iraq May 2007
This is a picture of a main commercial street in the afternoon. Notice how all the stores are shut and boarded up. Due to the heat of the sun, Iraqis generally engage in commercial activities from sunrise to 11AM and Sunset to 9PM. Abiotic factors such as climate, soil and water determine where and how humans congregate together.
I was situated on top of a building over watching the street for hours and noticed that only animals walked the streets during the hottest part of the day.
If you look beyond the buildings, you will notice palm groves, which were really areas around the town where the citizens over time, dug water canals to irrigate and enrich the soil into arable land.
I think this can be an example how humans can manipulate atopic factors to change the ecosystem of an area. (biome)
Anyways, during my rotation at this combat outpost, the only thing available to eat that wasn't an MRE were blueberry pop tarts and otis spunkmeyer muffins. As you can imagine, if I even smell either one of those things, I get nauseous.
On an interesting note, I was part of a Personal Security Detail for our commander and had the opportunity to feast on a goat which they slaughtered and prepared for us on our visit. I believe it was about a kilometer beyond the brick building in the picture and I should mention although it may be 115 degrees Fahrenheit on that rooftop, its is like 125 degrees and 100% humidity inside those palm groves.
Most iraqis in this area sustain themselves daily with a tea and a flatbread they make in mud ovens outside their homes. They may have some old tomatoes and cucumbers with that. Rarely did they eat meats or poultry, not too mention, their water source is rancid and army protocol was if you fell in the canal or sewage areas, a visit to the medical clinic was a must.
We had to address the cause-effect relationship in this unit. I made the first "tree" together with the students at first, and then, in pairs, they made their own trees according to their choice (e.g. deforestation effects, oil spills effects, global warming effects etc).

The TTC's new program to remove all garbage containers from the platforms (mezzanine and street levels only now) is going real well... note the dark spot where the garbage can used to be, and the McDonald's bag on the bench.
