Web site of the day

I have been frequenting this web site for some time now. The pictures are truly phenomenal. J. Corsentino has taken live models and made beautiful artwork. At this site you can find an array of different species. Angels, vampires, faeries and much more. The costume design is very detailed and superb. What I would do for one of these costumes. I have contemplated many times starting my own project for the ultimate fairy costume. I have NO IDEA when I would actually find the time to even invest in such a thing. I do need sleep periodically. Below you will find a sample of some of the art featured on the site.

This picture looks to be the cover of the highly anticipated book by J. Corsentino to be released fall of this year. It will contain 64 pages fairy art in full color. I will be sure to have this one as soon as I can get my greedy little hands on it.

I encourage you to visit time of the faeries and have fun, there is also a section with some cute games to pass the time. Like we all have this huge amount of time to sit and play games. HA!

The Di Vince Code

Spoilers attached!!!

On another note; I went and saw the highly controversial "The Di Vinci Code" on Friday. It was a fairly good movie. There were a few times that I found myself trying to stay awake. Maybe I was tired. My outlook on this film is, if you did not read the book, you will not enjoy it as much, nor understand alot of the things in the movie. They did a good job of following the book, but as always, in my perspective, reading the book is always much better. They hit all of the key points, however, there were other points that were not added. Here are a few of my observations throughout the film.

1. When there was a description and breakdown of the Holy Grail and its mean so to say through the artwork of The Last Supper. They failed to mention some of Da Vincis’ fascination to adding things to his art. Such as the extra hand holding a knife located to the left of Mary Magdalin. This was never pointed out. This factoid, along with many others regarding Da Vinis’ paintings were noted in the book.

In the book there is a thorough explanation behind The Mona Lisa. This painting had little impact in the movie.

When Robert Langdon and Ms. Neveu were trying to break the code, they were led to Di Vincis’ uh, shrine or whatever you wanna call it. It’s late and I’m seriously drawing a blank on the word! Anyhow they found clues that they needed to embark upon their journey, This was poorly explained in the movie. The shot of this statue was very brief and you could not imagine what they are actually looking for. In the book, the statue is detailed in every aspect. When this was shot in the movie I found myself wondering what this point provided for the audience. It was finally explained but not in full detail.
These are just a few of the details that I questioned throughout the movie.

As far as the controversial hype in the media, well you should expect it. This reminds me of the controversy regarding Harry Potter and religion. This however points to a completely different aspect. Dan Brown reveals things unknown to the world such as The Opes Dei and the Illuminati (Angels and Demons). It also opens the power to question ones belief in religious systems especially Catholicism. My view this that there are many things in the world that can corrupt, but if you are strong in whatever spirituality/religion you practice or believe it should not be a problem. You choose to believe what is pointed out or you do not. There can be some form of controversy in the crack of a sidewalk to someone.......
