 "A drop of water, if it could write out its own history, would explain the universe to us." ~ Lucy Larcom  #WaterIsLife

L’atmosphère se charge de vapeurs, qui emportent avec elles l’électricité formée par l’évaporation des eaux salines ; les nuages s’abaissent sensiblement et prennent une teinte uniformément olivâtre ; les rayons électriques peuvent à peine percer cet opaque rideau baissé sur le théâtre où va se jouer le drame des tempêtes.

"I used to think I was the strangest person in the world but then I thought there are so many people in the world, there must be someone just like me who feels bizarre and flawed in the same ways I do. I would imagine her, and imagine that she must be out there thinking of me too. Well, I hope that if you are out there and read this and know that, yes, it's true I'm here, and I'm just as strange as you." ~ Frida Kahlo

Alessia Iannetti was born in 1985 in Carrara (Italy), where she still lives and works. She enrolled in the Academy of Fine Arts of Carrara, majoring in Painting conducted by Omar Galliani and Fabio Sciortino. Her work, characterized by an illustrative style, is nourished by poetic elements, the artist prefers the classical drawing technique, creating an encounter of hyperrealism of subjects, details and a surreal dimension where female characters, evanescent as spirits, reign in a space between infancy and adulthood.

"Miracles are not contrary to nature, but only contrary to what we know about nature." ~ Saint Augustine

On Surreal Sunday remote landscapes in Norway are illuminated by the dreamlike installations created by Norwegian artist Rune Guneriussen, who uses desk, wall, and table lamps to illuminate individual trees, sections of forest, and other rural areas.

“It is not as much photography as it is about sculpture and installation,” says Guneriussen in an artist statement. “…This process involves the object, story, space and most important the time it is made within. It is an approach to the balance between nature and human culture, and all the sublevels of our own existence.”

In the depths of his garden on Batam Island, Indonesia, dedicated macro photographer Uda Dennie has mastered the art of photographing jumping spiders that have droplets of water on their heads, giving them the playful appearance of wearing large, reflective hats.

"The massive water droplets stay in place for about a minute, which is just the right amount of time for the 33-year-old to snap these shots. While most of us feel a bit squeamish when looking at macro photos of spiders, Dennie has somehow taken that uneasy feeling away, replacing it with curiosity and glee."
