Silhouetted rooftops, chimneys, antennas, and overhead wires sit beneath a vivid orange-red sunset sky filled with clouds.

Gonna leave instructions to paint my coffin this colour

A shade of pink that designers would recognise as rose poudré. Its hex code is "deadaf"

Eine schöne Bastel- und Malarbeit. Manchmal trägt Obelix den Hinkelstein. Manchmal ist Obelix der Hinkelstein. Dürfte nicht leicht gewesen sein, diesen Stein zu finden. #Asterix #Fanart

Das Bild zeigt einen kleinen, länglichen und nach oben abgerundeten Stein, dessen Form an einen Hinkelstein erinnert. Der Stein wurde rundherum so bemalt, dass er selbst zum Körper von Obelix wird.
Auf der Vorderseite sind Obelix’ Gesicht mit den roten Zöpfen, sein nackter Oberkörper sowie der grüne Gürtel mit großer gelber Schnalle zu sehen. Darunter setzt sich seine typische blau-weiß gestreifte Hose bis zum unteren Rand des Steins fort. Seine Füße stehen auf einer kleinen grünen Wiese, die mit roten Pilzen und Blumen verziert ist. Der obere, dunkelgraue Teil des Steins bleibt weitgehend unbemalt und wirkt dadurch wie ein Hinkelstein, der hinter Obelix aufragt.
Die Rückseite löst den kleinen optischen Scherz auf: Dort fehlen Kopf und Oberkörper völlig. Stattdessen sieht man nur Obelix’ Arme, die sich von beiden Seiten um den grauen Stein legen. Seine Hände greifen hinter dem „Hinkelstein“ ineinander. Darunter sind wiederum die gestreifte Hose und seine Füße auf der Wiese zu erkennen.

It’s been a long, stressful week. Why not decompress, switch off your digital devices, and relax the old fashioned way, by eloping with a minor aristocrat, developing a laudanum habit, and publishing a scandalous erotic novel under a pseudonym.

I've never seen anyone hate anything football-related as much as people are hating this final, and I remember that time a guy was shot dead for an own goal.

Probably the best picture I'll ever take of a Cormorant. Taken in 2024 at the Radyr Weir on the River Taff. Looks like something from the Jurassic period as a Cormorant dries it's wings on a huge tree stump as another looks on. 🪶 #birdingwales #ukbirding #birdphotography #ECK

A Cormorant dries it's wings atop a huge tree stump that has become lodged on Radyr Weir. It's mate looks on. Sun is slightly behind the birds and lights up the wings making them translucent. Wind whips up spray from the weir adding to the atmospheric scene. The tree stump was eventually washed away during storms a year later so no chance of ever replicating this image.
