it looks like her, but according to Mickey, it’s not. that picture was taken in 1974. think of what she looked like in “American Graffiti.”

The Netherlands? I've driven by that kind of thing, but seen it from ground level. Awesome!

Yeah, I read about a fisherman in southeast Asia somewhere, and a tiger swam across a river and jumped in his boat, just like Life of Pi only without the happy (weird) ending. Totally athletic, 400 lbs. plus, and meaner than a snek.

Nice kitty. :roll:

Isn't that Edith from "All in the Family"?

If so, I'd call it "When Alice Met Edith" (yeah, well, I'm not that witty at 4am....)

Dress Submerged in Dead Sea Transforms Into Glimmering Salt-Covered Masterpiece

Israeli artist Sigalit Landau has a special reverence for the Dead Sea. From her childhood home on a hill in Jerusalem, she looked out on the northern banks of the briny waters, and her family visited its shores on weekends. Its influence now filters through her creative work as both milieu and material—as much literal as symbolic of the surreal and spiritual realms. “It is like meeting with a different time system, a different logic, another planet,” she explains.

Her latest project, an eight-part photo series called Salt Bride, represents a uniquely captivating collaboration with the mysticism inherent in the cherished lake's chemistry. Landau submerged a black gown in its waters in 2014 and returned multiple times over the span of three months to capture its salinity-induced transformations, as glimmering crystals gradually conquered the dark fabric. To Landau, the dress soon appeared “like snow, like sugar, like death's embrace”—poetic language to describe an effect that manifests as delicately magical, despite its earthly genesis.

Witnesses to history: New Zealand news photographers share their best shots
Photojournalist ‘brotherhood’ answers call to create charity auction of some of country’s most memorable images

by Eva Corlett in Wellington
Mon 3 Oct 2022 03.15 BST

There is the haunting 1966 image of King Korokī being carried up the sacred Mt Taupiri in his cloak-covered coffin as the mist descends; Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay doing a spot of shopping in Wellington in 1971; another showing the hole ripped in the side of the Rainbow Warrior in 1985.

They are some of the country’s most storied photographs, depicting influential moments and people in the past 50 years of New Zealand history – and for the first time, a large collection has been pulled together in the name of charity.

Underside of one of the world's biggest waves takes out Ocean Photographer of the year award


An image of a blanket octopus in the Philippines won second place, by photographer Katherine Lu.

Lu said she was having difficulties on the dive before she took the photo and hesitated before going down deeper.

"Luckily, my ears equalised and there before my eyes was this beautiful blanket octopus," she said.

"We swam alongside her and then, like magic, she opened up her blanket to show herself in all her glory."

Explorer's camera from 1930s found on glacier in Yukon territory

In 1937, American explorer Bradford Washburn abandoned a cache of heavy equipment, including cameras, while attempting to climb Mount Lucania in the Saint Elias Mountains of northwestern Canada.

Two sentences of that book ("Escape from Lucania," a book by David Roberts) stuck in the mind of professional skier Griffin Post: According to Roberts, Washburn was heartbroken to leave behind his cameras and always wanted to go back to get them.

So Post set out to do it for him, 15 years after his death -- and 85 years after the equipment was abandoned.

He got in touch with Luke Copland, a glaciologist at the University of Ottawa, to help figure out where Washburn's equipment may have ended up. It had been left on Walsh Glacier, and glaciers move, so Washburn's notes about where he was were no longer directly useful.

That's how Dora Medrzycka, who just earned a Ph.D. in physical geography with a specialization in glaciology with Copland as her supervisor, got involved.

During the Covid lockdowns, one of my colleagues started printing photos on leaves using photosynthesis or chlorophyll printing. Several of their photos are on display at the university.

Here’s one showing the construction of the Schmon Tower at Brock that can be seen nearly everywhere in the region (it keeps photobombing my photos!).
