Bridal race

                            Here comes the bride! 50 women running for prices in Belgrad.

Invisible.

Insects and nature are often one whole, almost indistinguishable from each other. Others are just cool.

"Attack, dudes."

"Yeeey!"

As for humans being invisible, it is apparently possible if 1) you are an artist, or 2) if you are a scientist.
Least exciting goes first: a so-called thermo optical camera used by researchers at Tokyo University. It is highly dependent on the viewer's position, as the jacket simply films what happens at the back of the person
and displays it on his/hers front.

Yeah, yeah, we know, it's an old experiment...

Meet Liu Boli instead, an artist from China.

Somewhat harder to find.

Artist Desiree Palmen also puts down almost a day's work on each camouflage photo.

Either the top part is a really well made painted cloth, or a really well made part of the photo,
or it's simply me, or... a zest of Photoshop perhaps?

Floral Festivals

Spring is on its way, let us celebrate!

New Zealand's festival of flowers is held 11 February - 6 March this year.

Another flower festival, "with a myriad of flowers", is hold annually in Hungarian Debrecen.

Floral beauty and elegance at Festival of the Flowers (Feria de las Flores) in Medellín, Colombia.
The picture is from the famous Silleteros Parade.

Flowers made of flowers!
On April 16th, the The Netherland's nearest upcoming Flower Parade will travel the 40 kilometers
from Noordwijk to Haarlem. This year's theme is music, and if you miss this parade,
 there will be another seven floral festivals this year.

Chiang Rai festival in Thailand is probably the first Floral Festival every year,
as it starts on December 25th and lasts till January 3rd.

  

Weathercast - What You See Is What You Get

Seen at a hostel in New Zealand. 

Unique shops 1.

The shop American Eagle in New York displays your name and a picture of you taken in the shop if you bought quite many garments. 15 seconds of fame, as they call it :)

Then we have The Gap.

(From the other side of the road, you can see that even parked bicycles nearby are turned upside down.)

"Shopping turned on its head", was the campaign's slogan.

Light

Why not?

These cuties are from Orrefors in Sweden. Looking at them, it feels like Christmas again.

Home made spring

Somebody had put up green leaves of soft neon green fabrics using wire on this sleepy winter tree in the center of Stockholm.
