This was tweeted by @BBHLabs earlier today (via @brainpicker).

The original painting has been a favourite of mine since I first discovered it about 15 years ago.

Visiting the original in Madrid back in 2007 was pretty mindblowing and emotional, I was overwhelmed by its scale and force.

This 3D interpretation presents a even more graphic reality.

Amazing. Beautiful. Inspiring.

This kind of works but I’d still rather be watching EP01 of SE06 and hearing those immortal words ‘Previously on Lost…’

I particularly like Juliette’s voice.

Come on May 2010!

I know I shouldn’t but I really do like this chap.

He really believes he has the TV industry sussed and has pretty much figured out what lies beneath obesity – his doggie analogy is priceless.

I found this video on http://www.latfh.com/ it’s my new guilty pleasure.

So wrong, it hurts.

I know a great place, really central, loads of birds.

I know a great place, really central, loads of birds.

Few things rattle my cage but of late one particular thing is really starting to bug me.

Chicken bones.

If I see any more goddamn chicken bones on the streets of London…

It is becoming a real problem. I’m sure these bones are indeed biodegradable and in time will turn to dust and blow away but that is not happening right now.

The reality of ‘right now’ is far weirder and leading to something all together more sinister and ecologically scary.

Pigeons are effectively becoming cannibals and nomming their distant chicken cousins.

Imagine if cats ate cats? It would be a problem right?

(this is where some smart arse tells me that in certain part of the world there are a plethora of fried cat shops, and the streets are littered with cat bones which are then… yep, you get it.)

Can anyone explain why it is that the boxes/packaging of chicken take-out meals seems to make it into the bin and yet the bones just get flung onto the street?

I have such beef with this. (Insert own meaty joke).

So, here are two photos I took of the Westfield site pre construction of the now well establised Westfield ‘cennar’.

Gold.

Digging for gold in the wrong place.

Contrary to popular belief, it would appear that the pots of gold are not directly underneath said construction.

I’m going to look at creating a game, which stitches together a photographic map (photosynth maybe?) of London based on ‘where the rainbows end’ type images and see if I can’t at least find myself a penny or two.

Who wants to play? I’m thinking MMOG, offline treats, cult following.

Obviously it’s that simple.

Oh yeah – anyone able to actually build this?

I’ll retain originator rights and go 60:40 on profit share…

So this is how Greece looked, pretty stunning and a bit of a snapshot of my recent holiday:

But take a closer look at this picture, yes, I took this and think I have a future as a live action/sports photographer!

10/10 for technique.

Although, the best things in life are about preparation and here’s one of a zillion I took earlier:

Welcome to my new ‘thing’ – looky-a-bit-a-likey.

I’m definitely on to something with my debut couple:

Raef and Roger.

Raef and Roger.

Apart from the obvious indications… can you tell which one appeared on The Apprentice and which one is a tennis champ?

Exactly.
