You: You haven't spent your Sunday chasing bees round the garden with your camera then drawing on the photos have you?

Me: What?! That sounds like a foolish way to waste an afternoon!

Also me: Yes, yes I have.

This pattern is both ludicrous and brilliant. It had to be done!

For the friend who found it for me.

Some old blackhouses in the Scottish Highlands weight their thatch down with stones. These ones made me think of those theme park rides where people dangle from a track.

That one in the front has just seen what's coming.

You know when you have a video loop, but to make it loop something disappears in an improbable manner?

And you think, that's a shame, because I really like this little clip.

And you could crop it so, for example, a bird doesn't disappear in mid-flight, but then it looks unbalanced so you need to find some unobtrusive way for the bird to disappear so it appears natural?

Yeah. That.

I think I need a quiet lie down.

A short video loop of the sea splashing up some rocks. In the foreground there is long grass. On the left the cliffs of the headland. A gull flies in from the right hand side most of the way across the image. At that point the cliff, which has cartoon eyes and a slither of a mouth drawn on, opens its mouth wide, flipping the clifftop up, and eating the bird. Because why else would it disappear at that point? It made no sense.

Lunchtime train of thought...

  • Hey, that moss looks like a figure, reaching out

  • I should add a Santa hat

  • Hang on, it's the winter solstice isn't it? I should add antlers.

  • Hmm. That doesn't work with the Santa hat. Wonder if it would work in green.

  • Hmmm.

Goes down a bit of a solstice rabbit hole

  • Oh. I'm a day early for solstice.

  • Bah.

posts anyway

It's amazing how quickly fungi appears. Yesterday there were a few scattered around this wooden planter in the garden, today it was fully surrounded. LOADS of them.

Fortunately they are very friendly, and hope you all have a lovely day.

If a cat allows you to pet the tummy,

CONGRATULATIONS!!

Kitty trusts you as much as they can possibly trust anyone. You are not just Kitty-Approved, you are Kitty-ADORED.

🐈🐈🐈

If a dog allows you to pet the tummy,

CONGRATULATIONS!!

They are a dog!

A while back I stuck some googly eyes on some fish & was annoyed because it was a rubbish loop & a bit slapdash even for me, so I got another clip & have sporadically been adding more googly eyes.

Decided it was done & generated the new file.

Downside: The loop is worse & overall the new clip looks just the same.

Upside: I think I've discovered a new form of adding-googly-eyes-to-moving-fish therapy. Surprisingly relaxing. Would recommend.

A video clip of a dark aquarium tank with many fish, all the same kind, swimming back and forth. Quite a lot of them have had a set of googly eyes and an open O mouth added.

Need to start my Monday properly. Just taking a moment to admire this luscious moss and its elegant pose.

  • Hey! Maybe for the new year you should try something new.

  • Oh! Well, aye, but...

  • But what?

  • Well, I just went for a walk and met this really cute bit of moss...
