“Is it possible, I wonder, to study a bird so closely, to observe and catalogue its peculiarities in such minute detail, that it becomes invisible?”

I couldn’t agree more, Alan Moore. Ha ha, get it?

This particular painting is one of my favorites. I love it because I was infatuated with it the first time I saw it. I didn’t know anything about it. I didn’t observe it and I didn’t know the artist. I just knew that it was beautiful. And sometimes that’s all you need to appreciate a work of art.

Adam Simpson made some lovely illustrations for the BAFTA Film Awards depicting this year’s five Best Film nominees. This one for The King’s Speech is my personal favourite, but they’re all really terrific. See them all here, and read more about it on the BAFTA website.

Chocolate hills, Bohol.

We had to climb 100+ steps to see this spectacular view. The hills aren’t chocolate right now (they only turn brown during dry season) but the view was still absolutely breathtaking!

I would want to travel all over the Philippines and then go explore the world. Aah… What a dream!
