Sunrise or Sunset


When looking at an image, how do you tell if you are looking at a sunset or a sunrise ?

Short answer is, without additional information, you can’t. If you are familiar with the location in the image, and can have a general sense of what direction the image was taken/painted from, then you can more likely make a better guess than if you don’t. If the image includes a notable landmark, you could discern the direction based on that landmark. If you know a particular house faces east, you are not going to see the sun rising in the background, as that would be the west, for example.

In general terms, sunrises tend to comprise of gentler colors of light pinks and lavenders as well as peaches. Sunsets would include bolder and richer shades of red, orange and pink. This is not by any means consistently true, but in general terms. The reasons being on the scientific spectrum.

At sunrise generally the air is cooler, and there is less dust and particulates in the atmosphere, thus giving the suns light less to refract. Less particulates, less color. Alternately, at sunset, the sky has been warmed all day long and has more dust and particulates to give bolder and deeper coloring.

Patio Party


One of my most favorite things about Dictatorshop is the size of their collections, and that each piece in the collection is styled and textured to mix and match with every other piece in that collection, as well as other collections should you wish to. The newly expanded Breeze collection proves this point to a tee with todays post.

Dreaming Of The Desert


We have never had a desire to live in the south west, in the desert, where it is hot. Ever. The heat is not our friend. What we have done, is enjoy south west decor and the aesthetic it brings. I think it reminds us of the movie Boys On The Side with Drew Barrymore, Woopie Goldburg and Mary Louise Parker.

Jane:
Oh, don’t be such a hoo-hoo.

Nurse:
What’s a hoo-hoo?

Elaine:
It’s a cunt, dear.

How can you not LOVE a movie that uses the word cunt, and isn’t a porno? ! ♥

Dr Who Saves Jesus


As we have mentioned previously, we are currently binging Dr Who with our most amazing Troy. We are just reaching the end of David Tenant’s reign as the Tenth Doctor, and about to begin the reign of Matt Smith as the Eleventh. We have seen the Doctor save a great many people throughout history and in the future so far, not always successfully, but attempts were made.

This whole series has got us thinking, ya know, it is totally possible that the Doctor showed up inside that tomb in Golgotha and whisked Jesus away in the Tardis, leaving everyone to believe he had risen. Think about that for a minute, interesting idea huh?
