THERE IS NO PLANET B: Thinking About Our Sun


 The sun is by far the most important source of energy for life on Earth.

We all know the sun is a star.

I juxtaposed life against a plate I found in an astronomy book entitled:

There is no planet B: Flood

From my archive.
This collage is made in the Netherlands, a country with about 26% of its area and 21% of its population located below sea level, and only about 50% of its land exceeding one metre above sea level.
I wonder what effect global warming will have on us...

Founders of the Shed and Greenhouse Cult.


 Margaret and Gerald took their roles in their new shed and greenhouse cult very differently. 

Obscure Cults: Worshippers of the Holy Praying Mantis

From my archive.
This cult remained unpopular due to persistent rumors about the Sisters' tendency 
to eat their bed partner after mating

Luminesence - Nightmare Daydream

From the archive.
 

Luminescence: You look radiant today!


 The background is an infrared picture of mountains in Congo. The sky is from an Egyptian landscape. I have no idea what is going on with the fluorescent effect on Easter Island. The innocent sea creature was snatched from the ocean. The round things are pollen. (It's hay fever season!)

Luminesence - Up On The Roof


 From the archives.

LUMINESCENCE: Once A Month Winema Had the Power to Walk on Water


 I started to look through my archives and I think this may qualify. (I tend to make a collage with a minimal amount of pieces.)

A bit of background -- the woman is Vanda Hoff, who was a Ziegfeld Follies girl.I juxtaposed her against the Tongass Narrows in the northern waters of the Alaskan Panhandle.  

(Little did Vanda know she would walk on water some day!)

Note:  The name Winema is Cherokee for "white bird standing in water".

Luminesence - A Midsummer Nights Dream

From the archives.
 

Luminescence: Verschijnsels

An example from my archive.
"Verschijnsels" is a non-existing Dutch word. Translation: "Phenomena".

Theme: Luminescence

 Definition of luminescence: Light given off by something without obtaining or generating heat, as in phosphorescence, fluorescence, and bioluminescence. See Wikipedia for more info.

Or, to make it sound less difficult, make a collage with something in it that seems to "glow in the dark".

A DAUNTING DUO: Durwood & the Duck


 "Durwood Time Traveled to a Parallel Universe Where Giant Ducks Walked on Water and Allowed You to Take Your Photo With Them As a Souvenir"
 
Above is the original title of this collage created TEN years ago for SCRAPETERIA!
 
I am busy formulating a new "daunting duo"...
 
 

The Daunting Duos.

Theme: A Daunting Duo

 The duo can consist of living beings or objects, as long as there are only two.

It's my first time in choosing a theme so I thought to start with something easy...
