AMV Spotlight of the Week

This week’s AMV Spotlight is on “Fenix86R”.  In this AMV, the individual takes the song “Bullet-Proof Skin” performed by Institute and edits in images from the Gatchaman OVA.  The editing is done nicely and the song works, but to be honest I chose this AMV because I’m a little biased toward Gatchaman.  When I was in elementary I would run home and watch Battle of the Planets.  At the time I was so young that I had no idea that it was a Japanese property.  Of course I know better now and anything that has any incarnation of Gatchaman hits my sweet spot.  Have fun watching the AMV below from “Fenix86R” on YouTube:

Strange World Photography

Just saw this on the Yahoo ticker and thought it was really cool.  Matthew Albanese in his spare time makes these amazing dioramas out of a variety of everyday items and takes beautiful pictures of them when they are finished.  The following video is from the weekly “flickr” moment.  Watch it and you’ll be amazed and inspired as well.
