Mmm! Looks like summer squash, mushrooms and pork tenderloin (just guessing on the meat.) Good eats, in any case, I'll bet, Pooh Bear.

Oo so you have a second day of Christmas partying. I have one.

Looks like fun.

In Poland we met for the first time on Christmas Eve (that's when you exchange your presents), then there are first day of Christmas and second day of Christmas. Both Christmas days are national holidays (but not Christmas Eve).

Naw... all bald guys look the same... sort of like hairy people!

I've stunt-doubled for another bald dude named Bruce. Not Gordon Liddy, that would be a risky Secret Service position.:bugeye:

I think we can safely exclude Mars from the choices. Nice pic, baywax, and nice neighborhood.

Very cool touch with the pencil Dave.

You are innately using a technique where the line fades in and out
in intensity to show stresses and to show compound curvatures of
an object (or a very round head!)

If you want, try eliciting the same effect by being aware of the pressure
you're using with the pencil. Pressing harder will give you a surface that
is closer and lightning up will give you a more distant and curving way
surface. That's very good though.
Cross-hatching is a delightful way to shade an area. Check out Albrecht Durur's
use of it in his etchings and drawings. You could be the next Durur dude! Just
ask Andre about that guy. Totally cool... no use of the camera obscura... the guy
was fantastic with drawing. Vermeer on the other hand, had help with the
camera obscura.

Here's one I whipped up while I was typing a response...:smile:

Different angle, different century :wink:

This is 70 years old postcard sent in 1938 from Croatia (then Jugoslavia) to Germany.

As far as I recall, the photo was taken while i was on my way back down from Biokovo. It was taken by a lady I think was Polish heading in the opposite direction.

Thanks for the history, Borek. These perspectives are important.
