It seems like we have lots of new users. Welcome! I post mostly #photography, and most of that is #Macro of buggies/ #spiders/ #nature, but also #cats, #skies, and random things. Other things get posted too, science, #art, #games, #random thoughts and occasional #silliness.
A photo of the front of a large yellow and orange IO Moth, (Automeris io) next to a very small brown moth of indeterminate species. The IO Moth has fuzzy yellow legs and forebody, it's forewings are yellow with orange and black patterns. The partly visible hind wings are marked with vivid black eye-spots encircled with orange A fluffy brown and white tabby Maine Coon cat lays on her side, her head pressed against a window in which her wistful face is reflected A panoramic photo of a super cell thunderstorm rising into the late afternoon sky over a horizon of trees and a housing development in the right foreground. A macro photo of a Morning Glory flower. White stamens, bearing globular pollen grains emerge from an intensely purple central section, the petals fading to a pale lavendar.

Soviet Thunder.

Mig-17F "Blue 1611"for #FlyDay from the 2017 Moody AFB #Airshow

A photograph of a silver Soviet built Mig-17F fighter aircraft from the side as it flies at low altitude. The aircraft is cylindrical, the circular intake at its nose is ringed with bright silver chrome. Under the nose are the barrels of the 23mm and 37mm canon. The numbers 1611 are painted in blue just ahead of the bubble canopy. The fighter's swept back wings are seen edge on in this view. Two thin red stripes are just behind the wing's trailing edge. The fighter's swept back tail features the red 5 pointed star of the Soviet Union and is tipped in red. Trees are seen behind the aircraft as it makes a low level pass over the field.

There is some sparkle goth influence in the design suggestions! I gave in to this and now am trying to figure out how to mount a large sparkly pink skull to the dashboard of my car...😂

01 beginning

Gaia the earth goddess. She is believed to be so old she has seen the very beginning of Fae History. Some say she might have been the original creator.

Drawing of a centipede-woman, her entire body covered in a chitinous carapace, her face hidden by a helmet-like structure. She is holding a single blue spark between her hands, and her long segmented body curls around itself in a protective manner.
