I understand this will shock some of you, but I thought something different for a change wouldn't hurt the surprise-factor of my Flickr stream, would it "-)
Though it wouldn't surprise - nor hurt - me if my bad-ass facial snapshot ain't got a single comment at all. I do understand.

The Thinker
You are analytical and logical - and on a quest to learn everything you can. Smart and complex, you always love a new intellectual challenge. Your biggest pet peeve is people who slow you down with trivial chit chat. A quiet maverick, you tend to ignore rules and authority whenever you feel like it.
In love, you are an easy person to fall for. But you're not an easy person to stay in love with. Although you are quite flexible, you often come off as aloof or argumentative.
At work, you are both a logical and creative thinker. You are great at solving problems. You would make an excellent mathematician, programmer, or professor.
How you see yourself: Creative, fair, and tough-minded
When other people don't get you, they see you as: arrogant, cold, and robotic

I came across some old images I use for assets for whatever composite that pops into mind. I found this photo from a truck fire filled with smoke and these birds sitting on top of a tree which I shot during a short lake-cruise from within my dad's motorboat. I always wanted to do something with these assets, that why I collect them in an archive for later use.
I found this hi-resolution planet photo via Google and thought these three pictures would make a terrific combination. I hope you agree as well :)
