So creative! Now I just wonder how they got the moon to look that big… I’ll have to make some test shots sometime 😀 Usually they end up like this though.

Sorry for the lack of posts!
Been traveling and having an amazing weekend! Soon the posts will start flowing again and lining up just like this sweet snowball caterpillar! Why a cute snow creation like this? Because its awesome! Well, that and I really want it to be cold again soon 😛
Black hole noms a sun
A stunning cosmic jet from a super-massive black hole which shredded then swallowed a star has been observed by astronomers for the first time.
The extremely rare phenomenon caused by stellar debris being consumed by the hole has never been observed before.
Known as ‘relativistic jets’, they can reach hundreds of thousands of light years in length.
While the science behind it is pretty cool… the scientific image is somewhat boring, haha. Here is a more exciting illustration of what it might look like:
(oh, and p.s. the star they saw destroyed was one million times the mass of our sun!)
Tilt Shift photography
Accomplished via selective focus, which simulates a miniature scene. The shallow depth of field is simulated with digital postprocessing; and name may derive from the tilt-shift lens normally required when the effect is produced optically. So crazy how these turn out!
Love in the shadows
I love this idea! Seen it done before with more complex shapes, but something about how simple this is and how easy it is to understand… just makes me appreciate it more.
Garstripes illusion
Can you see it? Try tilting your head back and forth, up and down… you should see something hidden in the lines. If you need help, the title should provide some hint ^_^
Note: make sure your browser is not zoomed in or out or else the illusion will not work as well… aka, barely at all!
Impossible wooden beam illusion
Messes with your head pretty good, don’t it?
Lego optical illusion
So cool this entire thing was made out of legos 😀 Classic optical illusion. Not sure if I’ve seen one like this that was a picture of a real life object though, instead of a digital creation.
Paper M.C. Escher
This papercraft version of M.C. Escher’s Relativity is not actually origami but kirigami, which is where paper is made into art through the use of cutting and folding rather than exclusively folding, but its pretty much just fancy origami, haha. You might have already seen this work of Escher’s done in lego, but there is such a big difference when its done in paper, which makes the whole thing much more fragile!
Fancy nutella schmores
Ummm oh yeck yes, I will be making these soon. Nutella one of my favorite drugs 😛
