Black-Headed Gull, England by Christopher Hoyle


I was taking pictures of the scenery near Lake Windermere in the U.K. This black-headed gull was flying straight at me. It was oblivious to the camera for a while but then put the brakes on and flared its wings before it hit me in the lens. That intense look must be the last thing many small creatures see.

Look at this comic book mural.
Comic book murals are not a new thing, but I’ve never seen one that has been put together so creatively. Usually they go from left-to-right, or make a 2×3 grid or something flush. Look at the hand: it’s not even upright.
Here’s what they look like next to each other. You can barely tell they hook together. It makes this fact seem extra-secret.

This is a drawing of Obama on a hoverboard jumping over a shark.  it needs some labels and things to make it a true political cartoon.

How about this?

(( Secret World )) 4k Footage—This is one of YouTube’s feature demos for their new 4k resolution support. That means you can now upload videos that are 4× the resolution of HD. To paraphrose Roy Scheider, you’re gonna need a bigger display. You’re also gonna need a faster processor and connection speed.

What does this mean for the little people? Not much. Flash’s scaling algorithm makes the higher resolutions look over-sharp when they’re scaled down, and even reasonably fast processors choke on the frame rate. But it’s a step forward for technology, and eventually consumer demand will catch up to the supply.

I’ll have to try it on my 27” iMac, which still doesn’t have the resolution to display a 4k film at its native size, and I haven’t tried it in HTML5 yet, either, which is presumably less processor-intensive and might even render on the video card. (via littlemonsterfilms)

A book entirely about Spacesuits. This must be how love feels.

I gotta get this book.

EpicWin is a GTD app. Er, no, it’s an RPG. Er, maybe it’s an RPTD? Well, it’s an app that mixes crossing off list items with getting experience and loot, combined with a dash of vibrant illustration work.

Whatever it is, it looks remarkably fun. (via rexboxproductions)
