The IDIOTs (Intergalactic Digital Imaging Optical Technicians) continue to process data collected by the Hullbull Remote Space Telescope during last year's return trip from the Abell 2744 cluster of galaxies. Here two large gas giant planets are imaged along with their star against a backdrop of their resident galactic plane and a neighboring spiral galazy. The closer planet exhibits some odd volcanic-appearing plumes exiting its atmosphere. Infrared filters captured some well developed striations in the more distant planet's atrmosphere.

I don't like flashy awards, since they're mostly given because of an obligation to stupid group rules. If you got something to say, say it in your own words and not by copying and pasting. I don't follow such rules, so if you have the sweaper running, don't even bother to invite me please. As of now the flashy awards will be removed, no offence!
Imperial experimental assassin troopers- my oen design- loosely based on clone assassins in Revenge of the Sith -video game
i just got back two rolls of black and white film (my first time using it), so be prepared to see some of that
there were so many light leaks and double exposures, this is one of the ones that turned out better

“Sleek as a Swallow, Buick’s XP-300 – an experimental laboratory on wheels – embodies many of industry’s most advanced ideas, including a supercharged 335-horsepower engine.” [Image caption]
The XP-300 was introduced to the public at the Chicago Auto Show in February 1951 and later featured in GM's 1953 Motorama tour. It was also displayed at various auto shows across the United States. It was powered by a 335-horsepower supercharged V8 engine that could run on either gasoline or methanol. Its performance was impressive, with a claimed top speed of 140 mph (230 km/h).
The XP-300 featured a wraparound windshield and push-button power windows and seats, which were quite advanced for the era. The car could be jacked up by the push of a button if it experienced a flat tire. It had dual box-shaped fuel tanks, one for gasoline and one for airplane fuel, lined with aircraft-inspired rubber bladder systems.
Despite its innovative design and powerful performance, the XP-300 was never put into production. The advanced features and materials used in the car made it too expensive to produce for the mass market. Also, the market wasn’t quite ready for the car’s radical departure from conventional vehicles in its design and technology.
The XP-300 remains an important piece of automotive history and is currently on display at the Alfred P. Sloan Museum in Flint, Michigan.

Identified as being Bavarian by the rampant lion buttons on their tunics, five Landwehr or Landsturm infantrymen in full marching order.
All five are wearing M1892 Überzug (covers) over their helmets devoid of any regimental number, dating this photograph sometime after October 1916.
Two fellows, second and third from the left are wearing what appears to be modified M1907/10 tunics - note the seam around the upper sleeve giving rise to the notion that the sleeves may be removable. I have not encountered this type of tunic before and can offer little other than speculation.
I started painting from a happy little sketch that I did of my childhood but then I just couldn't keep going with that.... and this came out.

These are the last ones... I promise!
Shot these in an elective class while studying at the Corcoran National Gallery of Art over this summer! Super happy with how they turned out!

What happens when you've always been spoiled by your Grand-Mother & Mum who were so talented cooking a variety of nice dishes? You end up lazy & a big zero...
Time is now in for my 'experimental cooking'... :-)

The ESVW (Experimental Safety Volkswagen) in the VW museum in Wolfsburg.
During the very early 1970's Volkswagen developed an Experimental Safety Vehicle, a project initiated by the US Department of Transportation. The prototype car was developed to meet the requirements of the West German Department of Transport which were similar.
