Jim got me thinking about post-production. This is nothing more than me pushing buttons until this "Smurfy Weirdness" was what was left!
Magellan's Cross, on the Island of Cebu
Ferdinand Magellan was the first European to come to the Philippines in 1521. Also known as Fernao Magalhaes or Fernando Magallanes, he was a Portuguese navigator working for the King of Spain in search of the spice islands (now part of Indonesia, known as Maluku or Moluccas islands). When he and his crews landed on Cebu island, a native chief, Rajah Humabon, met and befriended him. Rajah Humabon, his wife and hundreds of his native warriors agreed to accept Christianity and were consequently baptized.
Magellan planted a cross to signify this important event about the propagation of the Roman Catholic faith in what is now Cebu, in central Philippines. The original cross is reputedly encased in another wooden cross for protection, as people started chipping it away in the belief that it had miraculous healing powers. This prompted the government officials to encase it in tindalo wood and secured it inside a small chapel called "kiosk." Some say, however, that the original cross was actually destroyed. The Magellan cross displayed here is said to be a replica of such cross. It is housed in a small chapel located in front of the present city hall of Cebu, along Magallanes Street (named in honor of Magellan).
Sadly, Magellan met his death under the hands of another Visayan chief, Lapu-Lapu, when he went to the nearby island of Mactan. Mactan is also part of today's Metropolitan Cebu. There, both the statues of Magellan and Lapu-Lapu proudly stand to commemorate the tragic meeting of east and west in this part of the world.
It took another 45 years (1565) before Cebu was visited again by another European. Miguel Lopez de Legazpi, under orders from King Philip of Spain, came and made Cebu the first capital of the Spanish colony known as Las Islas Filipinas.
New series of Hollie, Recropped, and tweaked a bit getting ready to print. (yeah, you've seen most of them before, hopefully they're improved or in some cases, how Hollie herself wanted them changed for her portfolio)

Making adjustments to our digital video and audio recording equipment for the school concert at Monash University. Took a while to work out what was causing the hum, then we finally figured out it was the dirty electrical power. The white box that solved the problem above was a UPS we 'loaned" from a school file server. Spot the yellow asbestos sticker on the wall.

This nice family has been nominated by the neighborhood to be shot in public, by firing squad, for driving this piece of crap too fast and not having decent mufflers.

So there's this bronze statue or Giulietta (Juliet) outside this house with a balcony that looks like the one described in Shakespeare's story. You're supposed to rub her boob for good luck/to bring you a lover.. so who's up for some lovin'? :)
Multi-exposure/DR-compressed and turned up the saturation a bit - blue hue as shot. Cavity lit from within by sunlight filtering through thinner part of ice.
