Wierd quirks like that along with an odd kind of visual and spoken dyslexia are my “super powers” 😀🤪😔. Like most things in life pros and cons to it.

I have a paperweight that has some bubbles maybe other pieces too. You’ve totally inspired me to look inside, glass at least 😉
I love it!
Very evocative. With my pareidolia I saw the mountains and witch hat as a wolf 😁
That’s super cool. I haven’t been to the UK since 1983 and I wasn’t into Austen back then. The Jane Austen festival in Bath is on our to-do list.
Air bubbles for making it. Hmm now I’m going to hunt down some glass 😉😁

Looks like glass maybe some Chihuly pieces?
Great picture where is it?
Love the cover art. Yours I assume?
We’ve been living in that bubble for many a year 😉😁
Same. I’m loving the art challenges because they are making me think more and expand my scope of work. I love this exposure too.

I just ate edamame in garlic, miso, citrus sauce. So I’m with you for Asian food 😁
Great shot love the colors and the birds.

Traditional inspired. Like these “traditional” dancers clothes.
My book delves into the intersection of politics, society, and fashion, revealing how Evita’s choices in dress and image-making contributed to her lasting myth. Throughout September, I'll be sharing some of her surviving garments, alongside those created for the 1996 film. #Evita #fashionhistory
I’m hearing “don’t cry for me Argentina” playing in my head 😉😆
Yeah I bet film cameras are priced like antiques now 😆

My 1st impression was it was a fairy queen 😀
BnW is where I miss film. There was a texture to BnW film that digital doesn’t have. I actually found my old film cameras when we were cleaning and I’ve been thinking about buying a few rolls of BnW film and trying it out.
If or when the breakup comes I expect we three states to unite.
Ps I love the word play of the title 😁
Great panorama. I also especially love the blues in the picture.
Very stylish picture. Good idea to shoot it BnW. I need to do that more often myself.
I hope you can get an answer from someone. At least you got this scenic picture 😉.
You have a magic touch in capturing the sweet soul of all the dogs you photographed. I feel this picture perfectly captures that sweetness.
“Dance the Night Away”
No you are right 💯. I was going easy 😇. The other thing is her hair length and the dress length, all a dark color really make her come off as dowdy.
Depth DoF is great. And blues in are just amazing.
She always looks great. Her smile alone is worth a ton of points. But this dress is super conservative and while not bad could be much better. Her jewelry and nails are great. Hair is C for me and the over all look is a B-
Isn’t orange the new black? 🤪😁

My old : #Jackson5 : ABC The song ABC replaced “Let it Be” at number one. A sign of things to come for MJ
Your new made me think of my new #BrunoMars & #MarkRonson : Uptown Funk. A cool retro design for the cover and the sound 😀. The song is a blast!
So do I 😉
I have to say I loved the AbstractAug challenge. It really forced me to stretch and actually re-engage with traditional art not just digital. I’m looking forward to this, although it will be much more challenging.

Looks like brunch not a cake 😆
Found it. It is well camouflaged. Great picture too.
All super rich people are parasites. That’s how they got so rich.
#Dimension is a fascinating concept. I feel we humans live in 4 dimensions but we really barely perceive the 4th(time). I believe that beings in the 5th dimension see into the 4th(time) as well as most humans see the in the 3(x,y,&z).

I know. It’s so crazy you can’t even satirize my current government. 😢😡
That’s neat. It could be a backdrop for Mars related pictures.
When I was learning to sail an instructor once asked, “what is it called when two boats are on the same heading? … a race.”😆
A classic. I haven’t seen it in a while. Peter Sellers does a great job with all of his roles. Also I love Slim Pickens playing it up as the crazy cowboy!

That’s cool fungus. Also good framing of the picture.
IMO dealing with conspiracy theorists is like dealing with alcoholics. Can’t help them until they admit they have a problem.
I just did a quick review and all the previous covers except Revolver are pretty basic. So this album looks to be one where they start going original and arty.
OMG thanks. It’s about 5:30 AM and just having trouble sleeping.
How comfortable the person is really can have a big effect on the overall look.
Here’s another Beatles for old: #TheBeatles : Magical Mystery Tour The US version was a LP because EPs weren’t popular so they added some previously released singles to augment the new songs from the movie. Every song on the record is good and several are great. My fav is "The Fool on the Hill"
I always like the colorful nature of this cover.
My new : #BowlingforSoup : The Great Burrito Extortion Case It’s a cool cover. For me it invokes a 50s Sinatra vibe. Plus the song “High School Never Ends" makes great observations with a catchy tune.
Good luck with the boring stuff of life.
This is really nice look. As Roger said color is great. I like the interesting asymmetry of the bodice. I like the way the dress creates volume but not too much. Her jewelry pieces are big and noticeable. This is a very nice red carpet look.
It’s a great color on her.
Really nice.

Promised I’d give the answer which is: the females have a beehive shaped flap to let the eggs out. The male is a narrow flap because they have less to get out 😉🤪😁. So left is male and right is female. They are legal to harvest if the shell is the width of a dollar bill.
This correct, which is why one should always follow their first instinct.

OMG. My dandelions are like 4 inches off the ground. The dedication it takes to get so low to line up that shot. 👏👏👏
At least the cat is not in the box 😁
The tag worked, but I’d already seen the post when you first posted it. 😁
Fitting as Carter was completely the opposite of the current President who is a also a dried up fruit and nut 😆🤪
💯. For me especially repetitive negative thoughts.
Doesn’t everyone one know the Oscars best picture from the year they were born🤪😆 or is it just me?
I’m sure that’s what they were singing the day I was born 😉🤪😈
Pita is easy to make from scratch. Then you can size them appropriately 😀

I’m really liking your Pismo series 👏
We quite possibly did. I lived in San Gabriel and my parents worked in a tall building on Sunset or Wilshire can’t recall 😁. We were “theatre” folk so I saw lots of movies and plays (not to mention being in them). I loved the De Laurentis version.
I agree with your premise that open and truthful communication is the an important key to a good relationship. I’ve been super lucky in that I found my my early and we’ve work hard at communicating.
My mom wouldn’t let me see Jaws when it came out, because six months before I saw The Towering Inferno and had nightmares for weeks. I have never seen Jaws. In hindsight sight I see why. My parent’s marriage was breaking up and they worked in tall office buildings in LA.

Yep the Speaker becomes President and the GOP has a traditional political creature who plays their game. That was the scenario I envisioned. I just expected to come via 25th Amendment not his actual death.
Another beautiful piece. I’m just amazed by how many of your pieces resonate with me.
