Update June 7 The winners of The Yard's May contest: "The irony" by =aR-Ka - 21 votes ****************** "Meeting with the Stars" by *djailledie - 21 votes ****************** "Peacock and Hen" by =jonnygoodboy - 15 votes ****************** Fri Jun 5, 2009, 1:09 PM Warning, self promotion below! :D A while ago I started a second account on DA, another-marble (https://www.deviantart.com/another-marble). Didn't post about it here because I wanted to see if I'd get comments and favs even without bringing a bunch of loyal watchers with me. I'm done with the experiment now, so check it out if you're interested. :) It's mostly street photography. Some examples: :thumb109667441

Thanks to feetpeet (https://www.deviantart.com/feetpeet)'s news article The Artisan Crafts Gallery, edition 67 I discovered the most amazing bug plushies ever. WeirdBugLady (https://www.deviantart.com/weirdbuglady) makes them, and they are so made of win I'd get them all if I could! :giggle: But see for yourself: :thumb82621912::thumb86499300::thumb98030004::thumb109344990::thumb118704603::thumb117473673: Spittlebugs, giant water bugs, silverfish, antlion larvae...:faint: I wish one could get more of those instead of the boring plush kitties, doggies and horses that every store sells.
