Here kitty kitty! I found the photographer for this image!

I saw this photo for the first time earlier today, but there was no information about the photographer. Finally, using TinEye.com, I was able to find a link to the photo with the photographer's information. Please enjoy the fruits of my OCD! 😉

Here is a link to her gallery on Deviant Art:

Here is a link to the page in her gallery containing the series of photos containing the one in this post:

I, of course, invited her to show her art on Google+ also.

Expanding my horizons in unexpected ways…

Sometimes I see a photo, admire, and move on. Sometimes I have to go devour all the images that I can find. Google+ does this to me more and more. Today, I'm particularly all over the globe. +TOMO NAKAJIMA from Japan posted several images from Elena Karneeva, a Russian photographer, and here I am sitting in the U.S. navigating her site with Google translation. I get jaded and then scenarios like this come along that remind me of the power of the Internet.

I included two of my favorites photos. See more of her work at:
http://www.karneeva.ru/
http://www.photosight.ru/users/181262/
http://sensuality-art.livejournal.com/1953874.html

I could not, at this writing, find her on Google+. Her e-mail is listed at her site so I sent a quick note asking her to joint the great community of photographers here. However, if anyone is a little more language fluent than I, perhaps you can drop her a line too. 😉

Raphael Gualazzi – Follia d'amore

Thank-you Spotify "related artists" to "related artists" to "related artists". Now, I just wish I spoke the language. So far, I'm about a half album into him and hearing some songs in English too.

Reality and Fantasy (Giles Peterson Remix) is also really good (this one is in English).

Importance of Vacations

I hear people rationalizing the all too short vacations they do take, or lamenting the fact they have not had one at all.

For myself, other than periods where I work shorter hour days, I have only taken maybe two consecutive weekdays off inconsistently over the past ten to fifteen years (at least). Actually writing it down is very sobering.

I'm a techie at heart. Imagine running the same Windows operating system for 15+ years (other techs please suspend belief for the sake of the analogy) without reinstalling or doing any major system maintainence.

Travel agent, please?

I feel the accumulation of mental sludge. What's your experience? What do you do if job, money, and/or economy conspire against vacations?

GOP in a Nutshell (pardon the now intentional pun)

This is an awesome read from a former GOP'er. Personally I think everyone should read this. Put aside a few minutes, though, it's not a skimmer.

Thanks +Kee Hinckley for tuning me in to this post from +Dave Shevett.

Reshared post from +Dave Shevett

This is an absolutely brilliant analysis of everything the GOP is doing to undermine the functioning of Congress. As told by someone who was a die-hard republican up until recently.

"It should have been evident to clear-eyed observers that the Republican Party is becoming less and less like a traditional political party in a representative democracy and becoming more like an apocalyptic cult, or one of the intensely ideological authoritarian parties of 20th century Europe. This trend has several implications, none of them pleasant."
