“I want to think again of dangerous and noble things. I want to be light and frolicsome. I want to be improbable and beautiful and afraid of nothing as though I had wings.”― Mary Oliver, Starlings in Winter

When a magnitude 6.8 earthquake shook Olympia, Wash., in 2001, shopowner Jason Ward discovered that a sand-tracing pendulum had recorded the vibrations in the image above.
Seismologists say that the “flower” at the center reflects the higher-frequency waves that arrived first; the outer, larger-amplitude oscillations record the lower-frequency waves that arrived later.
“You never think about an earthquake as being artistic — it’s violent and destructive,” Norman MacLeod, president of Gaelic Wolf Consulting in Port Townsend, told ABC News. “But in the middle of all that chaos, this fine, delicate artwork was created.”

OH MY. This is pretty awesome
I've seen a Vincent van Gogh Starry Night triple tier cake before, I wonder if this is by the same cake decorator. I'm seriously contemplating having a wedding or birthday cake of mine to be decorated as Van Gogh's Starry Night. His work and this cake inspired by it is all sorts of amazing.
The cake is not a lie, it is the beautiful sublime truth.
