PHOTO OF THE DAY : HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!

Running from February 3rd until the 22nd of January 2012, we are now officially in the year of the Metal Rabbit with Chinese New Year celebrations coninuing for the next week or so. (A particularly good year for me I hope seeings as I am a rabbit in the Chinese Zodiac) Apparently a year of (much needed) calm and peace awaits us and a good chance for us rabbits to "make an extra effort to follow your dreams, seize opportunities, and enjoy the moment". Done...Happy Monday!

I HEART ART : ALBERTO SEVESO

Entitled 'Medicina Rossa' (red) and 'Sequence' (blue) these amazing shots are photographs of ink being poured into a fishbowl and capturing the reaction to water. Created by an Italian artist; Alverto Seveso, who's work has been labeled fantastic and 'mind blowing', I think they have a haunting almost ethereal feel to them don't you? very cool...seen via Trendland
