Scylla the mythical sea monster in the Straight of Messina. He lived in the caves on the cliff. Greek mythology warned sailors of the perils. On one side of the straight is Scylia the six headed monster. On the other side of the straight is Charybdis the giant whilrlpool. You must choose between the lesser of two evils or caught between a rock and a hard spot can be taken from this. This is in the Caribbean Sea though on the island of Saint Maarten by Maho Beach. #Scylla #GreekMythology #StraightOfMessina #StMaarten #SaintMartin #eyes #SeaMonster #SarMonster #SarMonstre #cave #Höhle #grotte #213
Charybdis is the giant whirlpool in Greek mythology. It was in the Straight of Messina between Italy and Sicily. It was opposite of Scylla the sea monster that lived in the caves. Mariners had to choose between the six headed sea monster or the giant whirlpool. Today it is caught between a rock and a hard spot or the lesser of two evils. Scylla was Explored. I wanted to have a pic for the other half of the tale. I didn't have any giant whirlpool pics so I edited the Occoquan Bay National Wildlife Refuge pic and added a whirlpool. I created the whirlpool with a second layer. Lens is a Rokinon 12mm F2.0 manual focus and aperture. #Charybdis #B&W #SeaMonster #edited #Rokinon12mm
The kraken is a legendary sea monster of gigantic size and cephalopod-like appearance in Scandinavian folklore. According to the Norse sagas, the kraken dwells off the coasts of Norway and Greenland and terrorizes nearby sailors. ...This Art installation is seen on Hulls Maritime Museum and other public buildings in the City
I was going to play a guessing game here, but I have a feeling most of you would recognize what this is, so I might as well spill the beans. My hubby had some drill bits lying around and I thought they would make a great photographic subject. (Some of you might disagree :) ) I did several shoots, trying to get the focus just right, and also tried it with four different lenses and many different apertures. In the end, I had a few I liked, but decided to post this one.
Shot with Jena Pancolar 50mm f1.8 lens and 32mm Kenko extension tube, and six image focus stacking.

While I took this photo, the vaccination troll Herbert Kickl was giving an inflammatory speech nearby, namely on Heldenplatz, in front of a gathering of covidiots. Kickl is the leader of the far-right FPÖ, in the first Kurz government he was Minister of the Interior.
"Kickl has opposed scientific consensus on the pandemic on several occasions. Among other things, he has denied the effectiveness of vaccinations against COVID-19, and in November 2021 repeatedly recommended the anti-worm drug Ivermectin as a cure for the virus. There is no evidence that the drug has any effect in treating COVID-19 in humans. The Austrian Federal Office for Safety in Health Care has issued warnings about possible poisoning and strongly advises against self-treatment with it. Kickl's statements led to a surge in demand for Ivermectin, which sold out in many pharmacies. This was followed by reports of poisoning and hospitalisations as a result of improper use of the drug." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbert_Kickl
I absolutely am enchanted with the Plankbarrow Harbor sim at Fantasy Faire 2024. So much so that I shopped the stores there and created this look! I'm going to be making a shape using these items so the details will be on the styling card. But if you shop that sim before the Faire closes on May 5th, you might just find a few things I'm using.

Sea Monsters. Timingilam is a huge mythological aquatic creature that can swallow whole whales in one bite.
This is a real sea-monster. I found it in the Dunedin museum (NZ, Sep 2016), in their dead animal collection in the attic. Stupidly I didn't photograph the info card saying what it was, and when/where it was found. But I'm sure it was in a spaceship at the bottom of the ocean.
Not only the name of a Swedish viking metal band but the name of Mount Doom, the famous mountain in Lord of the Rings - I chose the title because that view between the rocks towards that spiky sea stack reminded me of LOTR/fantasty images. I almost waited for a horde of orcs and seamonsters to swarm towards me ;-)
I took this one at the Tunnels Beaches in Ilfracombe, a fabulous Victorian era private beach which can be reached by a set of tunnels that were hand carved into the rock in the 1820's.
Back in March, on one of my too infrequent trips to the beach, I found this sea monster.
I watched him for a while and he seemed to be having a serious discussion with a driftwood tree stump, but that finished suddenly when a dirt bike went passed and he took off chasing it.
Unfortunately I wasn't quick enough to get photos of that ;-P
(I've just added a couple of 'normal' shots of the Serious Sea Monster into the comments)
[here are more of my beach finds on flickr :-)]
This was my entry to Brickvention 2016, my first time making water effects, grasses and the first time making a large organic creature! I have little to no experience in any of these things, and for a first attempt, I think I did pretty well!

Additional Comments: Along the coastal borders of an Unnamed Kingdom lay a small trading dock on the edge of deep waters. It was here that fisherman and importers alike would come and sell their produce. But alas, unprovoked, a giant sea creature burst through the water and began to lay waste to this once peaceful fishing dock. The fort overseeing the trading were quickly alerted to the unfolding horror which unfolded before them....
I found this tangled monster at the high tide mark, on Himatangi Beach, NZ.
I guess it's made of plant material, washed into the sea via the rivers, mixed with ocean plants (and other things).

Hull Maritime Museums Project about the Mythical Sea Monster "The Kraken". There is several Art Installations of Tentacles and other things appearing on Buildings throughout the City, This one is in the same location as my previous photo.
L'oggetto era un probabile contenitore di cosmetici, raffinato e prezioso, come il resto del corredo che accompagnava la giovane defunta.
"...Le Nereidi erano delle figure della mitologia greca, ninfe marine, figlie di Nereo e della Oceanina Doride.
Erano considerate creature immortali e di natura benevola. Facevano parte del corteo del dio del mare Poseidone insieme ai Tritoni e venivano rappresentate come fanciulle con i capelli ornati di perle, a cavallo di delfini o cavalli marini.
Le Nereidi più note sono Anfitrite, sposa di Poseidone, Galatea, amata dal pastore Aci e dal ciclope Polifemo e Teti, madre dell'eroe Achille."

Unfinished because of the Darkness. Hadn't painted a piece in a year.
I wanted to match the sketch, but time did not allow for it!..Painted @ the Sub Surface Walls in Indianapolis. Hoping to paint @ the event sometime...
We have a governor who wants to "blow up" the Chicago public schools and a mayor who doesn't seem to care about public school children and teachers too much more than that. It's a travesty that in a "world class city" filled with wealth we can't support all of our citizens with a quality and sustainable public education.
The powers that be would rather have a new 1.3 billion dollar airport runway that most residents don't want and a TIF slush fund than allow for kids with disabilities to have appropriate clinician supports and for public students to have access to libraries, art, and music. The SHAME!
