Eclipse in Los Angeles

My shot of the partial eclipse from the Dodger game this past Sunday.  Great day, although I couldn't resist looking at the eclipse without protective eyewear at least once....Epic displays of nature bring out the fool in me.

Science!

Great photos and video of some recent science/space based stuff.  1st we had a SuperMoon last friday and there are some amazing shots out there, but one of my favorites might be by Dutch Astronaut André Kuipers from SPACE.  It looks like a jelly fish in water, but rather its the Moon visually hitting Earths upper atmosphere and thus looking squished.  Check it out below and the link to see a TON more cool shots of the supermoon.

More Cool SuperMoon Photos

and then I found this cool video of American Astronaut Don Pettit playing with water on some computer speakers...in SPACE....Cool video about the lack of gravity and how water reacts to the sound vibrations...Checks it

Yep I like science too:)

Maurice Sendak and Inspirational Passings

With MCA/Adam Yauch passing last week, and now Maurice Sendak today, I am truly saddened to see the truth of life and death brought so much to the forefront.  I was a huge fan of both.  Beastie Boys was the soundtrack to a part of my childhood and Where the Wild Things will always be a book I look to for  joy and inspiration.  I am sad to see such great American artists pass.  

Here is a quick self portrait I did of myself thinking this morning about the passing of Sendak

Both will be sorely missed for their passion and honesty

Jo Peel Wall Art Animation

Watch the animation below; Street Art on a Wall in Shoreditch, London.  Jo Peel creates a great little story, spending some three weeks to complete the work.  As mentioned in the attached article/link where I found it, Blu did something similar, but this work by Peel definitely has its own life and feel.  Enjoy...I did

Springfield...OREGON???

Saw this today, Matt Groening admits finally after over 20 years that the Simpsons Springfield is based on Springfield Oregon.  I don't watch the show that much anymore, but still an interesting bit of info, read whole article for more details
