We are like roses that have never bothered to bloom when we should have bloomed and it is as if the sun has become disgusted with waiting

The magic dogwood is an unusual Mexican subspecies of Cornus florida which is very sought-after for its large leaves and especially for its very unusual welded-together bracts reminiscent of Chinese lanterns.

Saturn’s Rings

Possible variations in chemical composition from one part of Saturn’s ring system to another are visible in Voyager 2 and other pictures as subtle color variations that can be recorded with special computer-processing techniques. These highly enhanced color views were assembled from clear, orange and ultraviolet frames from a distance of 8.9 million kilometers (5.5 million miles)I.

 In addition to the previously known blue color of the C-ring and the Cassini Division, the bottom picture shows additional color differences between the inner B-ring and and outer region (where the spokes form) and between these and the A-ring.

Gabriele Basilico, 1984, Contact sheet

“Reflecting the relationship between an object, the chair, and the human body through images, I thought of the funny and grotesque marks that strong textured chairs leave on the nude bodies of the bathers at the seaside in summertime: a true negative contact which, temporarily, aesthetically reveals the original surface of contact. The idea of reconstructing a sequence of markings in the studio, bringing chairs and backs together, seemed exhilarating to me.”
