3D Street Art

On my old blog I like to post pictures of street art. I think I already have some examples here. But I came across another I thought I would share.












That's all for now.

I came across a great blog today that had a posting called, "7 (More!) Phenomenal Wonders of the Natural World". I thought this is something I would blog about so I thought I would share but it may be better just to check out the original!

Freeze Bubbles

I saw these great pictures of frozen bubbles. The photographer used regular bubbles and blew them up into the air and they froze before they hit the ground.



They used a different solution to get different types of patterns



This one is only half frozen



I like that they still pop after they have frozen

Google Street view

I was reading on the Internet how Google has expanded its street view. I remembered seeing a car that I thought was a google car last spring. So I zoomed into that location and guess what?



There I am just after my sons soccer practice.
