An Aries ram!

According to my search, this is a mouflon ram… The mouflon is a wild sheep, considered one of the two ancestors of all modern domestic sheep, native to Southwest Asia and the Caucasus, with European populations having been introduced into Corsica and Sardinia, and now populating the Alps, as well.

They’re reddish brown, with a white patch on their sides… and smaller, 50 to 120lb, than bighorn sheep, which I thought this was. But bighorns are usually grey, and their horns less tightly curled.

Unidentified in my search, except for generic titles like Suburban Street, and Sunny Day.

Parts of the background look real… But because of the other pictures on the pages.where I found it, I’m going with “AI enhanced.”

I don’t know for sure… but images, like people, unfairly or not, are known by the company they keep.

Looks like it could have come out of “The Barbie Movie…”

That’s what I thought, too, when I first saw it.

In fact, not having seen Barbie, I thought it might turn out to be a still from it.

But nothing like that was mentioned in my search, which I’m sure it would have been.

It was posted to Instagram a bunch of times… sometimes linked to newly made-up sci-fi stories.

It was on Facebook and Pinterest, too, and I think some posts predated that film.

And maybe this too?

It looks real… kind of… but there are no signs anywhere, no number or destination on the streetcar. People are getting wise to the way AI garbles words, and leaving them out.

As for the streetcar… it also has no overhead line, and the wrong track for a cable car. In fact it appears to have two tracks for each side. Huh?

There are no people in the scene, and there’s no room for any cars on the street.

So…??

Oh… I thought you meant the poster … which is funny cos it’s anti-AI.

But maybe you meant the streetcar scene itself… In which case, yeah… It looks sort of in between painting and photo.

Cool.

Um… a minor quibble…. I’d think that the good monks of Dictionary.com, of all places, would know how to spell “monastery”.

There are lots of misspellings… I didn’t want to call them all out, cos overall, I enjoyed the intent of the map.

“Craiglist”, “penetentiary” … etc. “Dum guys” may be on purpose.

I just thought it was funny that the dictionary location was misspelled.

Better hurry and finish, or more than the tea will get cold.

The ocean is pretty… but as a place to dine, it’s all wet.

BTW… yes, they could have stayed farther up the beach, where it’s dry…. but….. they didn’t like the sand which is there.

Looks like a chalk cliff to me, but kind of strange that it isn’t undercut by wave errosion.

It’s an iceberg, or so I read.

That would explain the lack of undercut.

The Puzhai fire dragon dance …. part of the Lantern Festival celebrations, in Meizhou, Guangdong Province, China.

The dancers navigate through cascading sparks to make ten fire dragons “fly” amid a huge display of fireworks.

Nah… starfish are invertebrates. It just won’t do.

But seahorses are fish, if you can find one of those.

Yes… her friend’s name was Hugo, and she shared him with Arthur Miller during their marriage.

I read that she was very attached to Hugo, but Miller got custody in their divorce.
