(From various folks.)

Post a picture in my comments of what you think describes me when you think about what/who I am.

Give no written explanation though. Just an image.

(I request that the images be safe for work, but beyond that, more or less anything goes.)

So I was browsing Reddit earlier today, and I was directed to a number of amazing images. It turns out that these were from The Cans Festival, which is an (ongoing?) installation exhibition of urban artists in a tunnel about three minutes' walk from the London Eye. Functionally, this is (was?) a (mostly) invitation-only show where the artists ( Read more... )

I had a bit more left over on my Flickr upload quota, so I put up five pictures from swan_tower's and my trip from Indiana to California.

The luchador car is a guilty pleasure, though I'm most pleased with the picture of the Nevada desert twilight.

I just found out that Flickr's 100 MB upload limit on free accounts resets on the first of each month. Thus, I uploaded another 30 or so pictures from the honeymoon, and I've been busy geo-locating them. The gallery is, again, here. Of particular interest to ozziel, Roman manhole covers.

I just finished assembling a selection of what I think are some of my better photos from the honeymoon. You can find them here on flickr. Let me know what you think.

I've been somewhat busy this last week or so, doing prep-work for the one-shot LARP I'm going to be running next month and catching up on Strange Horizons work.

There are several folks I know who read this and would appreciate the following image. I get this via fantasygoat, whose journal - often risquée - is merely "pictures [he] likes for a variety of reasons." Often NSFW, but often funny, and highly recommended by me. That said, ( the image follows the cut.... )

Thanks to sapphohestia, I spent at least part of this morning going through images in the Frank M. Hohenberger photograph collection, which has an amazing array of photos from the early half of the 1900s, from surreal to workaday to historic to archaic to surprisingly modern-seeming. Worth a browse, at the least ( Read more... )

The following picture was pointed out by Alan, who has a point:

So... khet_tcheba (thank you!) pointed me at this post about a fellow who was mummifying a store-bought chicken he named Khames. Well, it appears that he is having good luck with the project. Here is a post describing the state of mummification.

The best was the canopic jar made by someone who read chrysippvs's journal (where he posted it originally).
