Mid-May Mayfly

Ahoy all,

One thing is for sure…we have to live our lives to the fullest! Why is it that we always seem to forget that? No more mundane! My new years mid-month-of-May resolution is to live life to the fullest just like a little Mayfly.

Let’s fill our days with the things we love!

Cookie, anyone?

Ahoy friends,

After the hype and 15 minutes of fame from the Best Job jazz, this video Endless Cookie kinda gets me thinkin’ - am I a one trick pony? Do I keep sharing the magic or disappear somewhere and turn into a big fat cookie?

People come, people go

Sometimes without goodbyes

Sometimes without hello

She’s got one magic trick

Just one and that’s it

She disappeared

It’s like - now you see her and now you don’t

You think you’re gonna get to know her

Now we won’t

She’s got one magic trick

Just one and that’s it

She disappeared

And that’s it

Miniature World

Ahoy all,

More than 300,000 people showed up to Sydney’s inner-city Darlinghurst to watch this years Mardi Gras parade, and Sydney photographer Keith Loutit was there to capture the entire event from the top of the Courthouse Hotel. Using a multi-camera setup, Loutit shot high quality digital still images to produce his short film called Mardi Gras.

Check out Mardi Gras; an incredible tilt-shift time-lapse video:

Loutit says he wants to bring us the little things in life. Well, there’s nothing better than creating phenomenal videos and gaining a little bit of success. And Keith, you’ve made little - get big!

HAVE YOU TAUGHT YOUR PET TO DO SOMETHING ODD? The Late Show with David Letterman will feature pets who have been trained to do unusual things. Pets must be amateur and owners must be willing to appear with them at auditions and on the show. Letterman says, “Remember, this is not a competition, it is only an exhibition — please, no wagering.”

A Boy and his Bike

Ahoy all,

Edinburgh is famous for throwing one of the most memorable New Year’s parties in the world — the Edinburgh Hogmanay. Too bad, so sad that I missed the event of the year…but at least I can virtually velo-tour the Scottish capital with team rider Danny MacAskill - who I like to call either Danny-You-Got-Mad-Skill or Mr. Mac Ass Kill…you try and land on your seat like this!
