The Deer On The Tree, Leonora Carrington

I love weird and I think this qualifies. Every creature represented seems alien or supernatural? The candles on the heads seem to indicate something like intelligence and relationship. And the grey wash is like a fog or mist, like this is some kind of hidden gathering where incomprehensible things are happening. The deer in the tree seems comfortable there, I'm even wondering, do deer go up in trees? I've never heard of that 😂

New Zealand man accused of eating Faberge pendant inspired by James Bond

Police in New Zealand are monitoring a man accused of swallowing a $19,000 pendant with the intention of smuggling it out of a jewelry store. The 32-year-old allegedly ate the Faberge octopus pendant at Partridge Jewelers in Auckland on Nov. 28. Authorities said Wednesday that evidence of the theft has not yet emerged. The man was arrested inside the store minutes after the reported theft. He has appeared in court but has not entered a plea. The pendant was inspired by the 1983 James Bond film “Octopussy” with a plot involving jewel smuggling and a fake Fabergé egg. The piece in Auckland has is encrusted with 183 diamonds and two sapphires.

Чудной!

Still with my stroll on November 17th, and shooting with Hα filter. I came across this bike somewhere that I can't even remember. Honestly, it was just the stance of the bike that attracted me, but after checking the images back home, I've realized that the place is filled with cars and this is the only bike (hence the title). Such bikes typically used by car cleaners (ready to be hired on a daily or monthly basis by home owners around to clean their cars daily before they head to work).
Now, the bike is facing right and I wished to put it on the left side of the image to give it a space (as if going into the frame), but unfortunately the tree on the right would block the view if I move to the right. So, I kept it that way and made the tree to be somewhat a framing element to the scene.
It feels soft, because it was shot at f/1.4, with focus on the bike specifically.
