How photography helped end a warIt's said that a picture says a thousand words, but this isn't always true. Sometimes they say far more than that. Un-edited photography is the closest medium we have to capturing reality, and for that reason it's incredibly powerful. On a personal level, photographs help us capture memories of our loved ones, and of times gone by. On a larger scale, pictures can tell stories of hardship, suffering and hope in a language that transcends culture. Photography can evoke emotion - but more than that, it can move people to action.
The power of photography was maybe never clearer than during the Vietnam war (1955 - 1975).
There are three pictures in particular that became iconic. They showed the human side of war, and the inhumane side of it. They showed the true horror that people endure and what kind of brutalities it makes people commit to other human beings. As the war dragged on, there was a growing movement of people who opposed the war. These pictures served as a powerful catalyst, an

Mods!Well, we finally wrapped up the Throne of Bhaal portion of the Haer'Dalis Romance and released it! http://www.shsforums.net/topic/55716-day-8-of-12-haerdalis-romance-tob-released/ It's been a long time coming, or maybe it just feels that way because I procrastinated so long and so often, but it's a huge relief to see it done.

We also put together and released a friendship for Sarevok. http://www.shsforums.net/topic/55705-day-5-of-12-sarevok-friendship-released/ I'm rather happy with how that came together as well. Hopefully in the next little while, the friendship for Haer'Dalis will see the light of day as well. Just gotta get off my rump and finish a few more talks.
Now that I've actually completed a few projects, I'll probably do something really stupid like cook up three or four more ideas to suck up my time and make me crazy! Yay!

Feature for You: Part IIPLEASE NOTE:
Considering the high response I received for the "feature for you" journal, I will be splitting the feature into a few different journals. I'll post one a day until everyone has had their chance to shine. Thank you for participating!
For those of you who don't know, I posted a journal asking deviants to send me thumbs of their work, and a friends if they wished. So here we go!

Hello Lovlies!
Wow, now we're on the final Saturday of 2012...

"Funny enough both were linarts that I coloured, done by :iconsarutdx:, of characters from a comic we share. So my goal this year will be to finish the second story in this universe!"
:iconstardivider1plz::iconstardivider2plz::iconstardivider3plz:

"As for my goals, I hope to get better with hard-cel shading, lineart, and more dynamic poses and composition.
Also not completely copping out on my backgrounds every chance I get. But, you know. Baby steps."
:iconstardivider1plz::iconstardivider2plz::iconstardivider3plz:

:iconDreamsickdev:

"My first goal would be to venture out more with challenging poses and full scenes. My second goal would be to organize my projects better and finish up my lengthy to-do list!"
:iconstardivider1plz::iconstardivider2plz::

Challenge Nummer 5!!!So ihr Lieben,
erst einmal wünsche ich euch schöne Weihnachten im Kreise eurer Lieben.
Und da der ein oder andere ja vielleicht zwischen den Jahren auch ein wenig Zeit hat, startet Challenge Nummer 5 morgen

Ich habe diese Seite gefunden: http://stiobhard.tripod.com/html/javascript/words/writing_prompt_generator.html
und benutze jetzt gleich den Random Plot Generator, um den Rahmen der Geschichte/des Bildes zu liefern, an der ihr arbeiten könnt/wollt.
So, los gehts:
Protagonist: Ein Astronom
Antagonist: Ein ehemaliger Freund
Ausgangspunkt: Ein hipper Koffee-Shop *g*
Ziel: Korruption aufzudecken
Ereignis, das einen Wendepunkt darstellt: Eine belauschte Konversation
Ein wichtiges Objekt, das dem Protagonist viel bedeutet: Ein Rosenbusch
Hehehe.... was soll ich sagen: Zufallsgenerator

Also ich finde es gar nicht schlecht, denn dadurch sind die Beiträge auch etwas Vergleichbarer.
Hier die Regeln:
1. Geschichten dürfen nicht mehr als 4000 Wörter haben und müssen auf Deutsch verfa

After Holiday BREATHING: A Poem

Journal Entry: Wed Jan 2, 2013, 8:57 AM

So, the holidays are now over
The world has not ended
A group full of members
Now waits patiently as the admins mend.

Week one of 2013 is here
But oh my oh dear
Not a whisper is heard
Not an update is near!

Dear Lantiis is sleeping
While a little Froggy starts breathing
Little James is relaxing
While Rainy sits a-dreaming.

Our humble Hisa is giggling
And a sweet Heart gives a big hug
AJ dances a jig
While the Widget settles in...

Santa has packed up his bags
The confetti is swept off the floors
Our eyelids start to hang and sag
So a long nap seems at hand...

But rest assured
We won't be resting long
Random updates will appear
Filled with new year cheers!

So off we go
Snuggled up with pillows
Regular blogs will return in a week
So stay tuned our happy peeps!
