And now I'm flooding my gallery with the results :D

I also learned a lesson. Never, ever go out shooting without a tripod in Scotland. If you see sunshine when you step out the door, it's guaranteed to go away by the time you get to your destination.

And grey skies + forest + my camera isn't a good recipe for sharp close-up pictures of tree bark ^^;

I never saw the first three, though I might decide to make up for that. Because Indiana Jones is fun. Even though the little cynic in my head kept snickering for two hours, or perhaps because the little cynic had so much fun too.

What more can a bird-loving weirdo like me wish for than a razorbill sitting a metre from the path, perfectly reassured that these huge two-legged things won't eat it? Or a shag with its funny hairdo making silly poses in front of the camera? A female eider duck playing invisible right next to the footpath?

I actually have a fun gorgonopsid picture in mind and have done a few very preliminary sketches.

And in doing so realised that I have no idea what a gorgonopsid's head would look like from the front. Well, I have some idea but I can't picture the thing's face in a way that doesn't make me grind my teeth in frustration.

Of course the internet is extremely poor in the sort of thing I'm hunting for - I have reasonably large skull reconstructions for I think three species (and I think that's about all Google image search turns up) and among them the skull of Sauroctonus progressus in every view ]]> http://sinande.deviantart.com/journal/Self-scolding-And-a-big-one-at-that-239512202 http://sinande.deviantart.com/journal/Self-scolding-And-a-big-one-at-that-239512202 Sat, 29 Sep 2007 13:08:29 PDT Self-scolding.

And what could I do on such a wonderful sunny (!) morning but go on a long walk with my camera and spare batteries?

This time I decided to explore the Lade Braes Walk, which brought me to hidden beauties in the westernmost part of the city. My favourite hidden beauties - the feathered sort - were usually hidden too well, or if they let themselves be seen, they disappeared as soon as I composed a reasonable picture, but I wouldn't say I'm very disappointed.

This week in Biology of Organisms we had a few glimpses at the history of life (most of it was stuff I've known since I was twelve, but I can only blame myself for that :D). Last lecture was on mass extinctions, and today the lecturer brought us the BBC documentary 'The Day the Earth Nearly Died' (or something like that anyway). Permian extinction, yay! I felt intrigued, I love the Permian, love therapsids, love extinctions (well, learning about them).

I found the documentary pretty good, as far as I can tell with next to no expert knowledge on the subject.

Here in Scotland Life never really seems to go to sleep (as far as I can tell after one winter I've spent here), but now it's awakening to new glory.

As you can see, I'm freshly deviant here. Uploaded two sketches in the scrapbook and a nearly sketch in the gallery. Don't be mistaken by the narrow range of subjects, though... I have other interests than dinosaurs, but unfortunately I don't have a scanner to transform those other interests into a binary format ;)
You know, I can't run to friends every other day saying "hey, could you please scan one more drawing for me?" ]]>
