churning these out a little faster. meet the female sniper! as a child growing up in florida, life was tough having to navigate the various dangers of the resorts and golf courses. one day, the sniper witnessed her parents being murdered by alligators and swore vengeance. from that day forward, she became a big game hunter.

growing up, her blood boiled with a quiet rage that came out in the form of cynical cheerfulness. where most would show discomfort and disdain, the sniper would have a sanguine optimism. smiling in the face of adversity, and even death later on, the sniper became one of the most well known hunters in florida. she even tried to go international and hunt for the loch ness monster.

on her plane ride to scotland however, she was interrupted by a woman in a purple dress who offered her a different kind of game to hunt. the greatest game of all: Homo sapiens. as far as the public knows, mary-anne died in the plane crash.

#tf2 #team fortress 2 #tf2 sniper #tf2 femsniper #my art #her meet the team video would be in the style of #river monsters lol #fun fact: shes wearing a diving suit under her clothes #but theres not much water in the desert #i also tried to make her have a batman-like backstory #since original sniper is like australian superman

One Dress a Day Challenge

November: Oscar Winners

The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert / Hugo Weaving as Anthony "Tick" Belrose (Mitzi Del Bra)

Year: 1994

Designer: Tim Chappel and Lizzy Gardiner

In a movie full of flamboyant costumes, this minidress adorned with pink and orange flip-flops definitely stands out for its original materials. It's got a definite 1960s vibe, between the length, the colors, and the "pop art" feel to it. Accessories include matching earrings, knee-high "gladiator" sandals, a cotton-candy-pink wig, and many large rings.

This was the first movie I ever saw Hugo Weaving in, so he wasn't cemented as "Agent Smith" in my mind, as he seems to have been for those who first encountered him in The Matrix. Consequently, I had no trouble shifting to viewing him as Elrond in the LOTR movies.

Come on, he is wearing gaiters I couldn't resist + End of the Line speeding bullet

#tf2 #tf2 fanart #team fortress 2 #tf2 sniper #tf2 scout #speeding bullet #sniperscout #end of the line #Scout is totally making it worse with his cold ass hands #ALSO I've seen someone say that it mades no sens to hc sniper as someone who can't handle cold weather #because he certainly has been dealing with very cold nights in australian deserts #And fair ! but I'm sure there is a difference btw how cold feels in a dry windy desert and at the top of a snowy mountain #but I didn't find anything to back up this statement #and I only have the wet winters of northwest france as a reference #so this is as far as this statement goes

thought I would share some of the incredible amphibian diversity we see in our garden. all of these creatures are from the same genus of treefrogs, Litoria (excepting Green Tree frogs, which are also often described as genus Ranoidea).

a Broad-palmed Rocket Frog (Litoria latopalmata), who we have spotted in the bog cave the past few nights! this species has proven to be highly variable in colour and patterning, so always interesting to encounter.

the pebble-shaped Desert Tree Frog (Litoria rubella), who hunt insects on my car in multitudes.

one of my favourites, the Peron's Laughing Tree Frog (Litoria peronii). at a distance they appear a uniform beige, but a closer look reveals flecks of emerald green across textured skin. this species tends to be a bit larger than the other frogs, but is still dwarfed by the Green Tree Frog.

a Slender Bleating Tree Frog (Litoria balatus), who I have posted before. one of the smallest of the frogs we see, but nonetheless intriguing with their yellow toes, and vibrant red eye.

last, and largest, is the conspicuous Green Tree Frog (Litoria/Ranoidea caerulea), a species found across much of the continent, and frequently found around human dwellings.

that's 5 species of tree frog all found within our relatively small garden, which is pretty amazing. we've also recently encountered a pair of Striped Marsh Frogs (Lymnodynastes sp.) around the pond (hopefully I can get a good photo soon), and of course there are the ever-present Cane Toads (Rhinella marina).

BLAHAJTRIP [2022]

1:1, phone camera, in order: Corrigin, Wave Rock, Border Village, Iron Knob, Great Australian Bight, Port Augusta, Streaky Bay, Adelaide

BLAHAJTRIP is an eight-photo set of images taken while travelling through Southwestern Australia for two weeks by car. The stuffed shark plays a symbolic role, representing the transitional nature of travel, as well as the liminal stage of the photographer's life, drawing parallels between the two. All images, except the last, anthropomorphise the shark by virtue of its isolation within the frame. All eight photos appear in chronological order of the timeline of travel, and showcase the journey away from the photographer's current place of residence to his second childhood home.

Interactions are extremely appreciated.

jane harper does such a good job with setting as an oppressive entity that hangs over every character, every history, every decision made. it's her forte and the film adaptations of her book do an excellent job of translating that.
