10 for today


Some of the last images captured of Mercury, before the MESSENGER spacecraft crashed on its surface after 11 years of success on its missio

Mesmerising!


 Below is Pyrite, also known as "fool's gold" in its natural form. The universe is filled with magnificence.


Coloured scans of brains are intriguing, all those different colours different aspects of who we self-identify as, what our memories are, basically everything that makes us, us.


The brilliant underwater sculpture museum in Mexico, more here


These butterflies are made entirely out of bits of electronics


I have irresponsibly lost the source of this Instagram account, I found this enchanting work via National Geographic



Robert Montgomery art above and below. Melancholy, wistful, eerie and beautiful. Decided it best not to run a whole post otherwise I would never shut up



A rare lenticular UFO shaped cloud, how marvellous!


The seal on the Magna Carta



Above and below the most beautiful work by Toshio Ebine, it takes me to another place, and that's where good art lives, with you in another world...

Astronomy watch/ Midnight planetarium


What a wonderful beautiful watch

However, a 333K price tag is ridiculous and a terrible comment on the kind of people willing to pay this for non-essential items!

Alternate moon landing speech


That symbol of hope and pride, the space race was a welcome distraction (kinda) from Cold war politics. Even though the competition was fierce, it remained a symbol of hope, pride and modernity.

Here is a copy of the speech Nixon was to deliver if it had gone wrong, strange to think! Maybe Elon Musk and his space mates are writing one currently in the event the Mars trip goes wrong, who knows!

Space/ Carina nebula/ Pillars of creation






The colours captured by the Hubble Space telescope are hard to rival in any colour-y landscape. I could stare at the pillars of creation in the Carina nebula all day long, this is where songs come to be written, surely!

Curiosity

Carina Nebula

Scientific curiosity and exploration has led us to discover and appreciate so much

but we, as people, of this our world, still have so far to go

Books and Brooklyn


Philosophy and onto a journal received for Christmas, as my other one is falling to bits....


Flowers of evil, TS Eliot, Philip Larkin= lots of poetry. 
It's something frankly that I don't tell many people: that I am slightly obsessive about poetry and write a lot of my own! I need to find a poetry pal. We can get wankered on Rose and read to each other beneath the trees by the sea...


my love all snuggly and warm
