6 hours straight of classes can be harsh indeed! But I won a prize in class! XD
Also, late trains and drunk people are the bane of mankind D;
Let us return to the dark and grim places of the city. May I present, the Alley by SimonWeaner
What a beautiful scene! The downpour, how refreshing! (As you may know, I love rain)
What is happening in this image? We see the fires in the building, something unusual on a rainy day. Then we notice the man, hiding, body tense and coiled, vigilant, ready to strike. Is he up to mischief? Or is he the victim?
We can only speculate!
And catch the glimpses of the beautiful city in the background, looming mightily and proud.
:D

Suggestivism
Let us begin with an interesting quote from Assassin's Quest by Robin Hobb
"One thing I have learned well in my travels. The riches of one region are taken for granted in another. Fish we would not feed to a cat in Buckkeep is pirzed a a delicacy in the inland cities. In some places, water is wealth, in others the constant flooding of the river is both an annoyance and a peril. Fine leather, graceful poetry, glass as transparent as air, exotic flowers...all of these I have seen in such plentiful supply, that the folk who possess them no longer see them as wealth.
So perhaps, in sufficient quantity, magic becomes ordinary. Instead of a thing of wonder and awe, it becomes the stuff of roadbedds and signposts, used with a profligacy that astrounds those who have it not."
I'm sure any commerce/economics person would laugh at me, as it is probably second nature to them XD
I digress
I need to be more vigilant in my blogging D:
I found this piece absolutely fascinating. May I present, Potrait of Crime by s-caruso
It just has so much meaning, so much room for interpretation. A big on his head? A gun barell poking out of his head? Suitcases entering the piggy-bank slot? Nice teeth buddy! Dressed for occasion?
I love it!

Ahoy
Recently, I have been reading a novel by the name of Assassin's Apprentice by Robin Hobb. Highly recommend it, entrancing read. In it, there is a mention of the 'Red Ship Raiders', ruthless and efficient pirates that are causing the land-folk limitless trouble.
Pirates? Arr!
Plague Ship Sails into Korvosa by yanimator provides a powerful image, wonderfully detailed, perfect atmosphere, action-packed, vibrant and energizing. The colours are striking and bold, like the majestic ship itself, regal and tall.
That is all. Before I make a complete fool of myself XD
