Have you ever wished you could avoid elevators and escalators? This is a quick vertical crop from a horizontal RAW shot; this little House Sparrow seemed to rise effortlessly. Humans seem so clumsy by comparison.
I think this chap resembles an SFR (or Small Falcon Rocket, as Elon Musk envisioned and designed the BFR ;) No tricks (and not a great capture).
But I love to see the reusable launch rocket landing so precisely after working the seemingly clumsy early launch vehicles and landings at Canaveral and Edwards.
Thanks for all of your support!
We spent the last September weekend at Balls 29, a big experimental rocket launch event in the Black Rock Desert in Nevada - the same place where Burning Man takes place. About 300 rocketeers gathered to launch high power rockets in the middle of the playa (dry lakebed). A few years back I did a photoshoot on the playa with this chair. Since then it became a tradition to bring our throne back to the desert every time we go.
A Jeff Bezos puppet sits in the chair. Our rocket buddy Erik Charlton put the puppet as a payload into a rocket. It came down ballistic, and buried itself into the soft ground. We measured with a wooden stick, the rocket with Jeff Bezos and Kate (the talking onboard computer) were literally 6 feet under (see photo essay in comments).
I processed a balanced and a paintery HDR photo from three RAW exposures, blended them selectively, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

Hello Lego model and space fans
Please, visite our Lego Ideas project: ideas.lego.com/projects/13e68955-084b-41fc-a4c8-8f01b552f84c
We’re proud to add the heavy-lift human rated version of Blue Moon to our project.
This crewed variant is designed to transport astronauts to and from the lunar surface, utilizing an ascent vehicle that will allow us to return to the Moon.
As a lunar lander it will also be able to deliver large infrastructure payloads, pre-positioned to sites on the Moon for future missions.
Have it fun :-)

'Santa 2.0' by Street Artist STRA.
When I visited the Brick lane area just before last Christmas there were quite a few works by this French Street Artist. Most were quite clever and had a message but like this one featuring Jeff Bezos I would suggest it wasn't always clear who the people were meant to be as the likenesses weren't great. Take a look at his Instagram account and see if you agree..... www.instagram.com/_stra_/
Having said that I'll upload one of my favourite pieces of Street Art I've seen in a while and it's one of his.
From an interview in 'LSD Magazine ' : "When street artist STRA began attending art school, street art or graffiti were the furthest thing from his mind. When he discovered the spontaneous public format, it gripped him by the heart, a spray can became a weapon. Undeterred by tutors at art school whom disregarded any future in public art. He adopted the anonymous persona of STRA and kept his identity secret for ten years.
‘I don’t paint for the beauty of it, I rather prefer painting the reality’
Over the years he developed a variety of techniques to deliver his newly found purpose in life. The chosen messaging is political satirical and social commentary. Using black, white & red as his favourite colour palette, STRA reached out to the world, a variety of countries and cities were exposed to his symbolic artwork.
‘I’ve been painting streets around the world for over 10 years now, with always the same mission: dropping as much messages as possible’"

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Koru is a luxury custom superyacht owned by Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon. The vessel was built in the Netherlands by Oceanco starting in 2021, and delivered in April 2023. It is a three-masted sailing yacht 127 meters (417 ft) long with a navy blue hull. The superyacht is reported to have cost at least US$500 million, and to require annual maintenance costs of at least $30 million. When commissioned, the yacht was the second-largest sailing yacht in the world, after Andrey Melnichenko's Sailing Yacht A.
It is named after the same Māori cultural symbol. The koru represents a looped fern and signifies new beginnings.

Yes - we've all ordered that really good deal from amazon, and yes they are too good to be true.
1. The consumer (Amazon Customer) usually has no idea this is going on. They purchase a design they like on their chosen product at a cheap price without a second thought as to who the artist is and whether they are purchasing an authentic product.
2. The products are made using screen captures of low resolution art files found on artists websites, google image searches or from artist licensed partners like Fine Art America, Society6, and Zazzle.
3. The fake products are mostly made by Chinese sellers, but they have also been found globally being resold by many U.S and European sellers and discount warehouses. China does not enforce international copyright treaties and their courts generally do not acknowledge intellectual property rights.
4. These products are often not as described, made from inferior materials and from very low resolution images that make the artwork look fuzzy and/or off-color. These low quality products often still have artist watermarks still on them. They usually sell at incredibly cheap prices and more often than not they ship from China or outside of the USA.
Why does Amazon let this happen?
$$$$ greed. We can assume the only logical reason Amazon allows and supports the illegal copyright infringement so strongly is that they can make more money selling a larger volume of cheap counterfeits vs a smaller volume of more expensive artisan original products. Amazon makes money on every counterfeit item sold. From membership fees paid by counterfeit sellers as well as a fee for every item sold and from fulfillment fees distributing these items from their warehouses.

Doesn't a registered Copyright protect Artists? Why not sue them?
An artist in the USA has an immediate copyright at the point of creation. The copyright however, must be registered with the government in order to take legal action in court. There really is no law enforcement to help an artist. There is no assistance from the police, the FBI or the DOJ or the US government in enforcing copyright laws in online marketplaces. All of this is left up to the civil-suit court system. The U.S. copyright registration is much like a fancy extended warranty certificate from a company that went bankrupt.
The Chinese economy and the companies like Amazon, Ali Baba and Ebay that support these illegal activities count on this lack of enforcement. They know international lawsuits against anyone in China is a fruitless effort. These companies hide behind their "Safe Harbor" status that protects them from liability of what sellers do in their marketplaces. This then allows them to create a complex system to encourage the copyright infringements and profit from it directly without being held responsible for it.
Once you've taken away an artists income - they have no money to hire a lawyer. If somehow they do, companies like Amazon have a legal army that will tie up your case until you have not a penny left.
