In honour of International Women’s Day tomorrow…I’m posting works of arts by some of my favourite women artists:




Remedios Varo’s Creacion De Las Aves


More of her artworks: HERE






Käthe Kollwitz’ Mother with Two Children


And


Pietá


Margaret Bourke-White






The Greatest Migration

-casandra-

and more women artists: some photos of Dora Maar, a surrealist photographer and famously known as Dali’s weeping woman:




Sans Titre (Hand-Shell), 1934





Le Pere Ubu, 1936

Bonsai, the art of growing dwarfed trees:

we can probably have a philosophical discussion about this...do we have the right to dwarf the trees? control their growth, shape them or bend them to our will? or ppfft..they're just only trees anyhow? :P

Nature photographer Warren Krupsaw’s mushroom pix (for gebZ): :P

a natural (but not perfect) looking and tasty apple:


Cox Orange Pippin

or a perfect looking but almost tasteless apple:


Granny Smith

Elephant slipping :lol:

All you need to get a beautifull picture is a camera and a lot of good luck to be there at the right time.

I appreciate this kind if pictures even more then the staged ones.
