Happy New Year! Happy New Year Crafters! Enjoy tonight's blue moon to ring in 2010. (Photo: Mail Online)Phil @Make: Online writes:Once in a blue moon there is one on New Year's Eve. Revelers ringing in 2010 will be treated to a so-called blue moon. According to popular definition, a blue moon is the second full moon in a month. But don't expect it to be blue -- the name has nothing to do with the color of our closest celestial neighbor. A full moon occurred on Dec. 2. It will appear again on Thursday in time for the New Year's countdown. "If you're in Times Square, you'll see the full moon right above you. It's going to be that brilliant," said Jack Horkheimer, director emeritus of the Miami Space Transit Planetarium and host of a weekly astronomy TV show.Read this article | Comment on this article blog.craftzine.com |
Costume Photography I love these amazing photographs by Aline Smithson. This series is of her mother in a range of incredible costumes, portraying her as everything from a bride to a geisha to a lion tamer to Elvis. I love the playful approach to portraiture, the hand-painted technique, and the incredible costumes. What a cool mom, too!Here's what she has to say about it: "This series incorporates traditional photography techniques yet, becomes richer with the treatment of hand painting. It is my intent to have the viewer see the work in a historical context, with the addition of color, and at the same time, experience Whistler's simple, yet brilliant composition formula for the composition. My patient 85 year old mother posed in over 20 ensembles, but unfortunately passed away before seeing the finished series. I am grateful for her sense of humor and the time this series allowed us to be together."
