When did it suddenly become cool to hate everything? It's a growing problem, especially in the entertainment world, and no one benefits from an increasingly hard to please, pessimistic audience.
Artist's Comments
Mute Swan (Cygnus olor).
I was walking along a river last week and saw this Bird bathing in the middle of a bend in the river, splashing around to gets itself as wet as possible, thrusting its head and neck under the water, really was nice to watch. After soaking itself it went to the edge of the river to dry itself off, flapping its wings to do so, it then preened itself, purest white feathers were its reward, that is apart from the neck which it obviously can't reach. For myself it was 40 minutes of joy to watch, boring for some people i guess, hearing the sound of the wings through the air was amazing, you can tell by the sound just how powerful they are. You can see the Splashing here at Swan Bathing 1 and Swan Bathing 2 . |

Life is short, break the rules, forgive quickly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably and never regret anything that made you smile

"Beauty is not seen, but rather felt, throughout the entirety of one's being. Until one learns to let that beauty in and allow it to flow unhindered through his veins, he will never comprehend it. This is what makes the artist separate from the man."
