Digital Art Painting of a restaurant known as The Big Chicken in Marietta, Georgia. It currently houses a KFC. The roof of the restaurant includes a large red chicken. In front of the restaurant are a few vintage cars that were closer to the time that it opened.

And yes if this were a video you would see that the Chicken's eyes and beak are animated. The pupil of the eyes rotate and the beak opens and closes. If you have never seen it that may explain why it's such a local legend.

Geikie gorge panorama

A more panoramic view of a section of the Geikie gorge. The high-water mark of the river in flood can clearly be seen on the gorge wall in the demarcation between light stone and its native, weathered oranges and dark ochres.

#photography #panorama #landscape #reflections #mirror #art #travel #Geikie #gorge #geology #patterns #nature #rock #ArtMatters #AYearForArt

A shot from water-level across the calm Fitzroy river to the escarpment of the Geikie gorge wall opposite. The frame is divided in half at the waterline, with an almost perfect reflection of the gorge and blue sky above in the river water. The gorge wall is an imposing, almost vertical sheer cliff of weathered sandstone, thirty or forty metres high, and very rugged. The high-water mark of the river in flood can clearly be seen on the gorge wall in the demarcation between light stone and its native, weathered oranges and dark ochres. A small tour boat can be seen near the far bank, dwarfed by the wall, giving a sense of scale.

Geikie gorge wall, detail

The eroded sandstone wall of Geikie gorge on the Fitzroy river, Western Australia. This picture was taken in the dry season, when the scoured, more heavily eroded rock is exposed. The high-water mark on the gorge wall in the following picture shows the huge difference in river height between wet and dry seasons, and the reason the stone is so deeply eroded.
🧵 ...

#photography #art #travel #Geikie #gorge #geology #patterns #nature #rock #ArtMatters #AYearForArt

Water-level closeup of the heavily eroded and scoured sandstone wall of Geikie gorge. The dark green water of the Fitzroy river runs under a heavily undercut outcrop of pale, almost white sandstone, its original orange almost completely washed away. Slightly higher up the wall there are numerous rounded hollows and further outcroppings and strong horizontal cuts, showing both faults in the rock and witness marks of heavier erosion. The wall as a whole is monumental, but there are very few sharp edges, nearly every surface has been smoothed by the rush of water.

G'day, hope and trust you're all well...

The laurel wreath has long symbolized honor and victory and the bee wealth, good luck, prosperity and power.

Sometimes boys feed babies.

Among mammals, the female tends to be more involved in childcare since the young gestate inside the her body where the male cannot access them. That said, not all male mammals fail to parent actively. Male Dayak fruit bats can produce milk to feed their young from their nipples.

Charcoal clouds drift across the bottom of the frame against a dawning sky, almost black against the delicate purple-grey gradient of growing light behind them. Most of the frame is just a wash of colour, lightest at the bottom left, where the sun will rise, and darkest at the top right. Almost invisible, two-thirds of the way up the sky, floating above the clouds is the tiny crescent moon, just a tiny silver sliver in the sky.

A month ago I shared a #colorful #romantic scene with a man and a woman and a commenter here said they'd like to see something similar with two men instead. This is a result of that challenge. ❤️

This photograph was taken in the desert Gobi.
In some areas you can find high sand dunes and depending on the time of day, the sand shines in golden colors or turned deep red.

'Empathy Bee'
Spring is almost here, the smaller creatures are hatching and waking up. An illustration to remind myself of the importance of taking care of all of us
#MastoArt #mastodon #bees #spring #illustration #art #ArtGallery #empathy #kindness #drawing #ArtMatters

'Empathy Bee says: be kind to yourself and to all living things.' An illustration of the upper body of a bee in a green top with the letter 'e' on the front looks out at the viewer with enormous gentle eyes. Some of its legs are folded over a generous tummy, the hands held together in a pose that expresses wisdom and kindness

High above the clouds the world and its problems suddenly seem so small, there's nothing but serenity. With this photograph I hope to evoke feelings of tranquility, freedom, peacefulness & a sense of zen.
