Where the wild things are

A late finished Saturday night composite.

Where the wild things are.jpg

Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe.

These are not my own words but I sure like this quote.

Not at all like Maurice Sendak’s work, but nicely done nevertheless!

Ah... I get the reference.

While I think of it, and what suddenly sprang to mind, there was an episode of Buffy with the same title.

I thought the same thing Alfred did when I read the title, but this seems like a pretty neat take on things. I like it. And wow, that moon is huge!

The unnatural size of the moon is intentional, it didn't have the same impact when reduced in size.

I went for the bold!

The moon can sometimes look that big in real life. I think it works very well here.

I know what you mean. Choice of presentation is everything.

Can it? That's interesting to know.

Yes, depending on where you are in the world and, what particular phase of orbit the moon is travelling on, it can appear much bigger than say as it appears in Britain. Some equatorial regions may enjoy a larger moon from time to time and some South American countries, too.

Then of course one has to consider the "illusion" effect when the moon is low on the horizon it can appear bigger - mainly through atmospheric distortion. So in this picture I played upon that fact or idea. My example is somewhat exaggerated.

Oh yes, I definitely knew that the moon can look different sizes depending on where you are in the world; I guess I just never knew how big. You learn something new every day.
