I spent a couple of hours working on this image just because I am too stubborn to read tutorials or instructions...I have to experiment and learn on my own! It takes longer but I've always been a "hands on" learner and I find it spurs my creativity. Of course it helps if you have a beautiful portrait taken of a beautiful lady. Check us out at deviantArt.
![]() Imagine there's no heaven It's easy if you try No hell below us Above us only sky Imagine all the people Living for today... Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for And no religion too Imagine all the people Living life in peace... You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And the world will be as one Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can No need for greed or hunger A brotherhood of man Imagine all the people Sharing all the world... You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And the world will live as one ~John Lennon Imagine is just a dream and part of the "Progressive" movement. In reality, human behavior would never allow such peace and tranquility. Striving for and brainwashing the young to accept this nonsense, only leads to power hungry and greedy leaders over suffering subjects. ~In my opinion. chp ![]() That time again! Don't forget to set your clocks an hour forward tonight! The modern idea of daylight saving was first proposed in 1895 by George Vernon Hudson and it was first implemented byGermany and Austria-Hungary starting on 30 April 1916. Many countries have used it at various times since then, most consistently since the energy crises of the 1970s. Although not punctual in the modern sense, ancient civilizations adjusted daily schedules to the sun more flexibly than modern DST does, often dividing daylight into twelve hours regardless of day length, so that each daylight hour was longer during summer. For example, Roman water clocks had different scales for different months of the year: at Rome's latitude the third hour from sunrise, hora tertia, started by modern standards at 09:02 solar time and lasted 44 minutes at the winter solstice, but at the summer solstice it started at 06:58 and lasted 75 minutes. After ancient times, equal-length civil hours eventually supplanted unequal, so civil time no longer varies by season. Unequal hours are still used in a few traditional settings, such as some Mount Athos monasteries and all Jewish ceremonies. Source: Wikipedia, Read More... |
