CAMERA OBSCURA BY ABELARDO MORELL
Photographer Abelardo Morell - “I made my first picture using camera obscura techniques in my darkened living room in 1991. In setting up a room to make this kind of photograph, I cover all windows with black plastic in order to achieve total darkness. Then, I cut a small hole in the material I use to cover the windows. This opening allows an inverted image of the view outside to flood onto the back walls of the room. Typically then I focused my large-format camera on the incoming image on the wall then make a camera exposure on film. In the beginning, exposures took from five to ten hours”. [see more]
People look at this and say “screw the art, check out that apartment,” amiright?

Pretty much my idea of a good day at home…
The cat is snoring. I’m so delighted by the cute I feel I must share it with the internet. After all, that’s what this was built for.

Nothing will ever convince me to drink that awful stuff, but this ad softens my heart, ever so slightly, towards it…

TOUCH OF EVIL on Blu-Ray - betting it is GORGEOUS
The Cave of Crystals near Chihuahua, Mexico.
Those giant crystals of gypsum (CaSO4) probably grew to their massive size really slowly in a bath of hot water and dissolved minerals. Now that the water has been pumped out by industrial miners, scientists are free to explore…with the help of some ice-cooled orange jumpsuits: The caves average a termperature of 118 F, and 90 % humidity.
OK, that’s it, I’m getting on a plane and going to Chihuahua. Who has a headlamp I can borrow?
Oh, look: The Fortress of Solitude
