Twilight Landing at LAX

This twilight landing of an airplane at LAX, from the cockpit, is pretty amazing. We see the change from night to day as the plane circles to and from the sunset before touching down. (A volume warning for those of you at work as it is set to music.) LINK

Nimmo Bay 360 Degree Helicopter Tour

Nimmo Bay Helicopter Fishing and Wilderness Adventures offers a flying video of Nimmo Bay in which you can control your view, a full 360 degrees. Rivers, lakes and glaciers all look amazing. For those of you who aren't interested in hearing the "hallelujah" music, don't forget to turn down your speakers before you start.

Control the video for yourself. LINK

Nude Nature :: Cecelia Webber

Artist Cecelia Webber creates some pretty fantastic photographic illustrations of flowers and butterflies using nude photography. Don't worry, they are safe to view at work, mostly backs and hands, arms and legs, twisted and turned, scaled and colored to create petals, stems, and wings. Check them all out at her site. LINK

Wire Trees :: Mark Golomb

Artist Mark Golumb creates small tree sculptures from wire. Having tried this myself, I learned how tough it is and how much patience it takes to bend all of those wires! Check out the trees he has made on his Fine Art America page. LINK

Park Project :: NeSpoon

Polish artist NeSpoon creates urban art pieces on trees. Ornamental ceramic pieces are inserted into the holes left by missing limbs, creating unexpected treasures. See more at the artist's Behance site. LINK

Houses in the Woods :: Carol P.

I hope I don't regret posting these here, a personal project of my own done decades ago.

The summer after graduating from college, I had time on my hands while I searched for a full-time job. I would hang out in the woods on our property and once all of the weeds were pulled and poison ivy eradicated, found myself feeling more creative. The one rule that I imposed on myself is that I was only allowed to use materials found in the woods which included lots of little rocks, old slate roof tiles, and an errant blue plastic bag that made for a good swimming pool liner. Enjoy.

Gregory Euclide

Gregory Euclide definitely explores different mediums and dimensions in his natural works. Illustrations on flat paper, reliefs, large and small three-dimensional pieces venture into the genre of modeling while contrasting natural and geometric forms. I had difficulty choosing a single image to hint at the style of his work because he tries so many different things, definitely worth checking out more on your own.

His website gives a sampling of his work. LINK

His flickr page has a plethora of pieces worth checking out. LINK
