Cultural Big Head

I met a traveler from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert...Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed:
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

The Beautiful Milena

I just think this picture rocks. I like the knowing look in her eyes......

Big Sporty Head

Here's Chris's big head at Texas Stadium in Dallas. GOAL!

Undoubted-lee

Here's Lee. He's in Massachusetts. He's from Texas.
Yeah, he always looks like that. You get used to it.

Big Head Beefeater

This Tower of London Beefeater was nice enough to give me the BigHead treatment.
Wait, that didn't come out right AT ALL. Pretend like I never wrote that.
This was in London, July '04.

Grand Theft Photo

This is my doppelganger, Fofusa. She's got a big ol' head, and big hair too. What's not to like?
She's in Prague for this one.

I steal pictures sometimes

This picture just cracks me up. Completely and totally. I love the bunny on the left. He's all like "Yo. 'S'up?"

I stole it from Bonnie. I wish her luck in her move back to the US.

Big Head Wars

My Big Head forces his out of the picture. (Seriously, it's hard to do a double self portrait...)
On the Oslofjord, Norway

Ancient Bigheads

Ancient Egyptian Bigheads......this was at Hatshepsut's Temple, I believe.

I stolded this picture

With many thanks to Bonnie, I stole this great picture from her blog of her son, Mike, with "Steve" the pigeon, on his shoulder. They were in Venice. Mike is brave. Steve is obviously an opportunist of the first order.

When I was in Venice I did not let a bird land on me. In fact, I spent most of my time on the Piazza San Marco flapping my hands about so they would not come near me. Eeek!

Big Head Kitty 2

Digger, this time dressed for Cinco de Mayo? Who knows, but I feel his pain. It's hard to be loved THAT much.

Big Head and Louvre

Here's my big bean at the Louvre, in March. Paris, rainy cold day. Still amazing.
And Yeay Blogger, for FINALLY making it possible to post pictures directly, instead of having to go through Hello or Flickr. Way cool.

Feline Big Head

This is Digger, my friend's cat. He is usually more dignified. And awesomely patient.
His "parents" Sue and John, live in Austin. (But John's British, and Sue's a Yank, so that explains the wierdness and the tendency to dress up Kitty.)
(Just kidding you guys. No really. KIDDING.)

big mona lisa, little me

her big head and me, posted by karlakp.

This is an art piece that was placed all over Venice. Just the Mona Lisa, in yellow,in squares and communal areas everywhere. You couldn't miss her. Part of the Venice Biennale.
Anyhow, I had to get the big head shot.
Me and Mona.

A picture of a cow I took while hiking through the Gap of Dunlow, Ireland.
I like cows. They just seem so cozy.
I like chickens, too, but don't have any big head pics of them. I'll try for some next time I go back to my parents'.
Hmm. I must've been a farmer in a previous life.
