.The Stars Below.

Exploring the aesthetics of Nature, Art, Music, Literature. Subjects that inspire me : Scandinavia, European castles, wood working, medieval weaponry, elves, ambient music, science fiction, dark fantasy, nautical history, polar exploration, ships, architecture, linguistics, Tolkien, trees, oceans, botany, geology, sculpture, metal music, vintage motorcycles, bizarre art, HR Giger, mythology, map-making, androgyny, taxidermy, reptiles, history, sharks, tattoos, long hair, Vikings, Japan, Norse mythology, I'm 30 years old and physically live in Northern California... in my mind, I live in Middle Earth most days, and Norway others, realms of fantasy are my favorite places to dwell. The purpose of this blog is to collect beautiful imagery and music I find tasteful. The occasional bit of written word may also be found. None of the images you see are mine unless otherwise noted. :)
