When did it suddenly become cool to hate everything? It's a growing problem, especially in the entertainment world, and no one benefits from an increasingly hard to please, pessimistic audience.

This is a life-size statue of the Roman "goddess of the hunt", Diana, located in the Allerton Gardens, Kauai. In the part of the garden called "Diana's Room", Diana stands at one end of a reflection pool, with a white lattice gazebo at the other. [link]
Miraculously, this statue was one of the few things in the 80-acre garden that remained unscathed by Hurricane Iniki [link] in 1992. While just above the level of the storm surge (29 ft.), the statue survived a sustained wind of 130 mph with gusts up to 160 mph as well all the accompanying debris. If you're wondering what she is doing, she's pulling one end of her cloak over her shoulder to connect it in front. I put the color version here [link] |
