Flying!
NPR is featuring some neat "ground as backdrop" photos at the moment.
I'd already seen Oren Lavie's "Her Morning Elegance"
as well as "Sorry I'm Late"
But Strawberry Swing was new to me.
And now, into Friday we gooooooooooooooooo!

This is serious dedication to craft
Miniature Art on the Tip of Pencil by Dalton Ghetti (via Odd Stuff Magazine) showcases the amazing and beautiful sculptures that Ghetti carves into the graphite tips of ordinary pencils.
He has a level of patience and devotion to his work that I have not achieved. The fact that he gives his work away, rather than sell it, adds a layer of wonderful to the whole thing.

This is lovely
I've done many of these things. Doing things alone can be wonderful. It isn't necessarily better or worse than doing things with a companion or two, but it is definitely different.

Ex Libris
Dark Roasted Blend explores some really interesting book plates. Looking at some of the designs, I find myself wanting to make my own set of book plates. Time to start planning!

Starry, starry night
See the sky while stuck at your computer with Neave Planetarium, a fun Flash-based planetarium site. I'm enjoying it.

Nifty application
Livestrong.com has a neat program from tracking diet and exercise. The diet tracking part is pretty standard, but what I like about it is that you can map and track particular exercise routes, and save them for later.
I no longer have to guess how far I walked when I take a midnight stroll around my neighborhood, or how far my bike ride was. The fact that it includes the elevation changes is particularly nice. Not entirely without bugs, but very handy.
It also comes as a mobile version for iPhone and iTouch.

Play Me a Swing Song and Let Me Dance!
Everyone ponder what Metallica would sound like as a swing band? Wonder no more! Let The Swinger demonstrate. This is pretty darn cool.
