Paper Bubble by Jason Wagner

I’m still looking through and editing the Kenya photos and it’s taking quite some time! So while I continue here’s a long necked friend to keep you going. I took this during a walking tour of Crescent Island, north west of Nairobi – one of the best opportunties to get up close to the wild animals of Kenya.

I’m back from three weeks in Kenya and I still don’t quite believe I was there. Each and every day was an adventure from a late night visit to our Safari camp by a herd of Elephants to playing statues with local school kids, Kenya is everything I ever dreamed of and more. You’ll have to forgive me though as I need to sort through over 3000 photos before posting them here. In the mean time I’ll leave you with the eldest of the lion cubs we tracked in the Masai Mara as he patiently waits for supper.

Lovely short film of recent snowy events in Wellington, NZ – hello and big hug to all my friend over there, stay warm!

A friend sent me this image and a quick Google search pulled up an opporunity to buy it as a print!?!

So I”m sure many of you saw the original VW ad with the wee Darth Vader kid, yeh?

Well check this out, the follow up (of sorts) but not quite what you expect…

Loom tells the story of a successful catch.

A moth being caught in a spiders web. Struggling for an escape, the moths panic movements only result in less chance of survival. What follows is the type of causality everyones expecting. The spider appears, claims its prey and feeds on it. The way nature works. But it’s the point of view that creates an intense relationship between the hunter and its victim. There is much more to explore, much more to feel if one takes the time to really experience the content of a split second.

But you can’t take the cave out of the man.

From the Guardian UK:

When ancient Britons drew male genitalia on chalk hillsides, little did they know people would ape their customs millennia later

A wonderful advert from Japan. I just wondered if this was tweaked in anyway or is as natural as the setting.
