More brilliant than the rocket's red glare... =)
From physicist-surfer-savant Garrett Lisi's post, this is "perhaps the most momentous day in particle physics of the century.
The Higgs boson [aka "God particle"] is the Holy Grail for particle physicists because it is the missing link that provides a description of how all particles get their masses and how they interact with the gravitational field.
Now that we know the existence of the Higgs boson, this is just as significant as finding out that, in fact, atoms do have these hard little nuclei. We don’t know what the implications will be decades down the line from this discovery, but they will surely be huge."
An overview: Garrett Lisi's video, and various anticipatory links below.
Clownfish or anemonefish are fishes from the subfamily Amphiprioninae in the family Pomacentridae. Twenty-eight species are recognized, one in the genus Premnas, while the remaining are in the genus Amphiprion. In the wild they all form symbiotic mutualisms with sea anemones. Depending on species, clownfish are overall yellow, orange, reddish or blackish, and many show white bars or patches. The largest can reach a length of 18 centimetres (7.1 in), while some barely can reach 10 centimetres (3.9 in).
In popular culture, the film Finding Nemo by Disney/Pixar prominently features clownfish as the main characters. (Wikipedia)

i'm finding it very difficult to take photos, i feel like i've exhausted every single possible photo in and around both of my houses. i'm getting sick of my face and wardrobe really, it'd be much different if i had a real model other than myself to shoot
These are stills from new time-lapse "Finding Portland"

A cool hair salon on Ashland, I just might book my next trim there ... (oops. Sorry to my current stylist if you should happen to read this).
I got off early today and went back to my favorite place! I met the two most amazing spiritual women while leaving, Paula and Joyce. When introducing myself, Paula gasps and nearly loses her breath when I told her my name was Angel. She explains to me she has collected angels her entire life and re-gifts them to people as she meets them. Within seconds she feels compelled to now give me her most prized possession. We spend quite some time in conversation and find out that our families may even know each other. Amazing how small the world is.

Description:
I have scouted this location a few times. It's close to our local grocery store, under an automotive bridge. A creek runs through this short walking path below the shopping center. The graffiti looked like a cool background to take a few shots. I decided to make the white balance super blue and shot the subject with CT orange filters to finish the effect.
I really like finding new places to shift the white balance and mess with strobe gels. This was a really nifty project and it only took half an hour to get to, setup, and shoot. The post work was done in Aperture and I used Viveza to tweak some of the colors around, which took an additional half hour.
My only complaint was I wish I had brought a third and/or fourth stand to stand off the background light sources and perhaps split them on either side or something. The effect was cool, but it was a little too blown out on the lower rocks.

2 days solo wall... painted next to a swimming pool... good fun to paint apart from the hailstones and wind!
Finding myself spending much of my life crammed into a tiny studio and office (seeing as I work entirely from home), I made a radical decision to move my office into my lounge room instead. And it works! I'm much happier with the new arrangement - especially after generally fixing furniture, reorganising and doing things up a bit.

American postcard by Disney Enterprises / Pixar Animation Studios, 2005. Image: Pixar Animation Studios. Concept art by Ralph Eggleston for Finding Nemo (Andrew Stanton, Lee Unkrich, 2003). From 'The Art of Pixar: 100 Collectible Postcards', published by Chronicle Books.
Finding Nemo (Andrew Stanton, Lee Unkrich, 2003) is the fifth full-length animated film by Pixar, distributed by Walt Disney Pictures. It tells the story of an overprotective clownfish named Marlin who, along with a regal blue tang named Dory, searches for his missing son Nemo. Along the way, Marlin learns to take risks and comes to terms with Nemo taking care of himself. The film was a huge success and received more than thirty awards, including an Oscar for Best Animated Feature. Finding Nemo was a huge box-office success worldwide, earning nearly $865 million.
At the beginning of Finding Nemo (2003), the clownfish Marlin and his wife Coralie have just moved to a new anemone in the Great Barrier Reef. Their happiness is short-lived as Coralie and almost all the eggs she had laid are devoured by a barracuda. Only one egg survives. Marlin decides to name the little fish from this egg Nemo, a name that Coralie had thought up. In Latin, the word "nemo" means "nobody" or "no one." It is also a reference to Captain Nemo in Jules Verne's novel '20,000 Leagues Under the Sea'. Nemo has one fin that is smaller than normal. His father and he call it Nemo's lucky fin. It is actually a kind of scar from the barracuda's attack. The incident also makes Marlin excessively neurotic and protective of Nemo. When Nemo is older, it is time for him to go to school. The timid Marlin follows Nemo, against his will, to make absolutely sure he is safe. Nemo has clearly had it with his father's behaviour. To prove there is no danger, he leaves the coral reef. However, he is spotted by two divers. One of them catches Nemo in a net and takes him away. Marlin gets over his fear of the open sea to retrieve Nemo. He meets Dory, a blue tang suffering from short-term memory loss. One of the divers has lost his goggles, and Marlin finds them. The address of the diver is written on the goggles. With the help of Dory, who can read, they find out that Nemo is in Sydney now. Dory accompanies Marlin to Sydney on his search for Nemo. The two come across, among other things, three vegetarian sharks, a school of jellyfish, and a group of sea turtles. The latter help them a great deal. Finally, Marlin and Dory are swallowed by a humpback whale that blows them out through the blowhole, which carries them the last mile to Sydney.
The inspiration for Finding Nemo (2003) sprang from multiple experiences, going back to director Andrew Stanton's childhood, when he loved going to the dentist to see the fish tank, assuming that the fish were from the ocean and wanted to go home. In 1992, shortly after his son was born, he and his family took a trip to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom which was called Marine World at the time. There, after seeing the shark tube and various exhibits, he felt that the underwater world could be done beautifully in computer animation. Later, in 1997, he took his son for a walk in the park but realized that he was overprotecting him and lost an opportunity to have a father-son experience that day. In an interview with National Geographic magazine, Stanton said that the idea for the characters of Marlin and Nemo came from a photograph of two clownfish peeking out of an anemone: "It was so arresting. I had no idea what kind of fish they were, but I couldn't take my eyes off them. And as an entertainer, the fact that they were called clownfish—it was perfect. There's almost nothing more appealing than these little fish that want to play peekaboo with you." In addition, clownfish are colourful, but do not tend to come out of an anemone often. For a character who has to go on a dangerous journey, Stanton felt a clownfish was the perfect type of fish for the character. Pre-production of the film began in early 1997. Stanton began writing the screenplay during the post-production of A Bug's Life. As a result, Finding Nemo began production with a complete screenplay, something that co-director Lee Unkrich called "very unusual for an animated film". The artists took scuba diving lessons to study the coral reef. Stanton originally planned to use flashbacks to reveal how Coral died but realized that by the end of the film there would be nothing to reveal, deciding to show how she died at the beginning of the film. Finding Nemo was the first Pixar film not to be scored by Randy Newman. The original soundtrack album, 'Finding Nemo,' was scored by Thomas Newman, his cousin. The score was nominated for the Academy Award for Original Score, losing to The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. Finding Nemo (2003) did win the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature, the first Pixar film to do so. It was also nominated in two more categories, including Best Original Screenplay. Roger Ebert gave the film four out of four stars, calling it "one of those rare movies where I wanted to sit in the front row and let the images wash out to the edges of my field of vision" Finding Nemo became the highest-grossing animated film at the time of its release, and was the second-highest-grossing film of 2003, earning a total of $871 million worldwide by the end of its initial theatrical run. Demand for tropical fish exploded right after the film's release, especially for clownfish and blue tang. Finding Nemo is the best-selling DVD title of all time, with over 40 million copies sold as of 2006. After the success of the 3D re-release of The Lion King, Disney re-released Finding Nemo in 3D in 2012. A spin-off sequel, Finding Dory, was released in June 2016.

...Sometimes we have to hush the frantic inner voice that says "Don't be stupid", and learn again to look, to listen. You can do the organizing and redrafting, the diagnozing and the identifying later, but right now, just be open to it, see how it's tilting nervously into the wind, try to see the colour, the unchancy shape - hold it into your head, bring it home intact....

After a long time, behind the camera lens and click, this is my first post here so that maybe an enthusiasm for this old love will return again.
A commissioned cake based on Pixar's Finding Nemo. Some of the decoration (the bubbles for instance) were based on Hellida's cake which you might see right here: www.flickr.com/photos/hellida/2440531129/
Everything is made with gumpaste, therefore is edible.

This is the poster I designed for my upcoming show that Linda B (Wine Diva) has so kindly offered to host in cojunction with the monthly wine tasting that she holds at the Shop she owns with her husband.
Since the text is so small here, this is what it says:
Southside Cellars presents:
finding light
A photography exhibition and wine tasting featuring the work of Atlanta photographer, Joe Cattoni with a selection of refreshingly light and dark brooding wines.
Saturday, August 26, 2006
6-8 PM
Southside Cellars, Jacksonville, FL
There's also a brochure with a short bio and artist's statement:
About the artist:
Joe Cattoni grew up in Northwest Pennsylvania and earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Indiana University of Pennsylvania with a major in graphic design and a minor in drawing.
For over 10 years, he has held various creative positions at advertising agencies in Pittsburgh and Atlanta. He is currently the creative director at Hood Marketing Solutions and specializes in healthcare marketing. Photography entered his life
at a time when he was seeking personal growth and creative satisfaction. He now creates emotional digital images that fill an inherent need to create and explore the world around him.
Joe makes his home with his wife and two young children in Atlanta, GA.
Artist's Statement
My photography is a personal journey that strives to clearly express a state of being that can be quite unclear. It is a walk through the cyclical nature of major clinical depression and its related moods. The highs, the lows and everything in between.
By capturing the world around me, I hope to convey a sense of undeniable emotion. Bringing to light the daily experiences that millions of people with this condition silently cope with. Depression is much more than sadness. It is a misunderstood roller coaster ride that is crying for more truth and understanding. If I can help one person heal, help one person think, or help one person understand through the power of images, then my reason for creating will have been served.
So, come by if you are in Jacksonville. If not, these images are what is being shown...
I scared, thankful, humbled, nervous, excited and hopeful all at the same time. This is such a big step for me in so many ways. Just the fact that I am following through with it is enormous...
