Although Gonsalves’ work is often categorized assurrealistic, it differs because the images are deliberately planned and result from conscious thought. I think it goes without saying that all of these paintings take their author notable amount of time before he finishes them (planning each piece in order to make the transitions flawless).Water Dancers is another magnificent illusory painting by Rob Gonsalves, a Canadian painter of magic realism with a unique perspective and style. We have seen multiple examples of paintings in which detailed images are intricately woven together to create larger images – the optical illusions fading back and stepping forward as you study the pieces, notice the details, and finally recognize the large scale intention.But Rob’s paintings include one additional aspect - sometimes it’s not that easy to dissect and pinpoint where one motive ends and its transformation into another begins (see Camels in The Night, Cathedral of Commerce and Ships and Arches for better understanding).

ugzilla Found In Google Earth
Forget about Godzilla, this Meag-Bug was recently discovered using Google Maps. Look at the size of it! It will take on the world as we speek. Hehe, Sabine Wieluch and David Horm submitted this recently, and you can see it for your self if you point your Google Maps to this geographic position: 48.857635, 10.205424 and 0.001193,0.005322 (Germany). First one that locates it, and posts the Google Maps link in comments, winns! What’s your explanation? I beleive that this image isn’t satellite one, but made with airoplane (google maps usually have High-Res photos taken from planes). In my opinnion, this bug is infact quite little, but was stuck on plane’s camera lense. Any other opinnions? For more interesting Google Earth illusions, visit our Google Earth Category.
