Giant Devil’s Flower Mantis, is one of the largest species of praying mantis, possibly the largest that mimics flowers. It is the only species classified under the genus Idolomantis. picture by Igor Siwanowicz
Laburnocytisus adamii. this is a really unusual but wonderful gift to the gardening world due a natural occurring graft-chimaera between two species, a laburnum, Laburnum anagyroides, and a broom, Chamaecytisus purpureus (syn. Cytisus purpureus).
Little crop of the last commission piece I did for my most recent and amazing hosts! Also, I’ve added a few more prints in my shop that I’ve been asked about the most as of lately (including this guy!) so feel free to check them out 🍄 www.kitmizeresart.storenvy.com
Gigantic duckbill dinosaurs bigger and faster than a T. rex roamed western North America for millions of years. From magnificent mummies still wrapped in skin to crests and skeletons of animals from all ages, Edmontosaurus has left behind the best preserved remains of any big dinosaur.

The United States of America—after the Second Civil War.
Two lovers meet.
One: a straight-edge vegan hacker anarchist boy with a penchant for messing with the State. The other: a chaotic, hedonistic cop with a reality TV show and a license to kill. This really shouldn’t happen—and yet, somehow, it does. And soon, the entire state of New California is after them.
This ballistic sci-fi action romance miniseries—in the vein of Mad Max and Romeo and Juliet—from ALEŠ KOT, TRADD MOORE, and HEATHER MOORE begins with a massive-sized debut issue, and features a backup comic introducing the talents of AARON STEWART-AHN and SUNANDO C ( @sunandodraws )!
Hey Coven, I know it’s been a minute since the last post, but I’m
starting to realize that when this happens you can expect something good to
coming. With that being said I hope you all like this spring/fashion week
inspired look

P.S. Cooooven, I know I don’t post enough here and you guys
want more so hop on over to my Instagram where I’m always posting. Get the full

This false color photograph of Neptune was made from Voyager 2 images taken through three filters: blue, green, and a filter that passes light at a wavelength that is absorbed by methane gas. Thus, regions that appear white or bright red are those that reflect sunlight before it passes through a large quantity of methane.
How Come Cosmic Inflation Doesn’t Break The Speed Of Light?
“In an inflationary Universe, any two particles, beyond a tiny fraction of a second, will see the other one recede from them at speeds appearing to be faster-than-light. But the reason for this isn’t because the particles themselves are moving, but rather because the space between them is expanding. Once the particles are no longer at the same location in both space and time, they can start to experience the general relativistic effects of an expanding Universe, which — during inflation — quickly dominates the special relativistic effects of their individual motions. It’s only when we forget about general relativity and the expansion of space, and instead attribute the entirety of a distant particle’s motion to special relativity, that we trick ourselves into believing it travels faster-than-light. The Universe itself, however, is not static. Realizing that is easy. Understanding how that works is the hard part.”
It’s true that nothing can move faster than the cosmic speed limit, the speed of light, and that no two particles can move faster than light relative to one another. So how, then, do you explain the fact that during inflation, two particles that begin a subatomic distance away from one another are, after just a tiny fraction of a second, are then billions of light years apart? The answer is because special relativity only applies, strictly, to particles that occupy the same location as one another in both space and time. If they’re separated, then the Universe is under no obligation to be static, and space is free to expand and/or contract. You cannot figure your apparent motion with special relativity alone, but need to factor in the effects of general relativity as well. And that’s where things get really weird.
Floating Optical Illusions Created through Brilliantly Painted Layers of Glass
Glass painter Wilfired Grootens is
an artist from the German countryside with a very unique style. Using
delicate swirls and tendrils painted onto layers of laminate glass, he
assembles dozens of sheets together, and then sands them down to produce
vivid three-dimensional paintings that appear to float in mid-air. When
examined from different angles, his sculptures vary, perspective
playing a huge role in each piece to successfully meld art with optical
illusion. (Source)
I couldn’t decide which version I want on a shirt for myself so I think I’ll get both made! If I make more (once I figure out how? advice welcome!) I’ll look into this one getting a few too!
