The Twelve Signs of the ZodiacThe purpose of this news article is not to show artwork depicting the 12 signs of the zodiac, but rather to see aspects and characteristics of each sign in photography. This wasn’t made to be read so the reader could disagree with what each sign is meant to be about, but rather, each photograph represents what each star sign is about. This is not a debate for or against astrology, but a study of the different concepts.

Early beliefs were that earth reflected the movements of the heavens above. Therefore, it was thought that mythical beasts on earth were also represented in the sky.

Aries
In mythology, Aries is associated with the Greek myth of the ram which carried Athamas's son Phrixus and daughter Helle to Colchis to escape their stepmother Ino. Aries is also associated with the mythological figure of Theseus, from the Greek myth of the Minotaur.
Aries is said to be the natural ruler of the first house of astrol

Greek Mythology on dA - Part IGreek mythology turn.

I found out that Greek Mythology is perhaps the most beloved on dA, so many great artists and so many wonderful artworks!
Various techiques, various readings, various styles: traditional and classical, humorous, anime-manga, photomanipulation... Really tons and tons of deviations and really very,
very hard to choose which ones to feature.
So, I'll make at least two-part article, and I'll start with the Series: a lot of artists have got entire collections dedicated to Greek Mythology in their galleries, and here
are some of the best, from any time on dA.
I apologize with traditional artists if I put this article in the "Digital Art" section; I do that just because the most of these deviations belong to that category.
I'm sure I missed some awesome pieces; if so, please note me, and I'll feature them in the next article.

Hope you enjoy them as much as I did!

Greek Mythology on dA - Part IISo here we are, Greek Mythology Part II.

I found out that Greek Mythology is perhaps the most beloved on dA, so many great artists and so many wonderful artworks!
Various techiques, various readings, various styles: traditional and classical, humorous, anime-manga, photomanipulation... Really tons and tons of deviations and really very, very hard to choose which ones to feature.
Here's the second part of my article, more series, and some wonderful deviations dedicated to the single deities.
BTW, two articles won't be enough, so keep in touch for Part III!

Let me show you 151 Pokemon!Having been a fan for years as well as recently picking up Platinum, I decided to do a Pokemon Feature. Of course, with over 400 Pokemon now, putting them all into one article would be a little maddening. So allow me to present the original 151 Pokemon of the first-generation Pokemon games! Some of the images are considerably more popular than others going into this article, which can't be avoided, but the majority of artists were under a specific number of pageviews and the images were checked carefully for the most appeal without featuring any artist more than once.

Traditionally Mythical: KirinAlso known as the Q'ilin, Qirin, Kilin, Chi'lin, Girin
"The Kirin is said to have the body of a deer, the tail of an ox, the hooves of a horse, a body covered with the scales of a fish, and a single horn. The Kirin appears only before the birth or death of a great and wise person. Said to live in paradise, the Kirin personifies all that is good, pure, and peaceful; can live to be 1,000 years old."
-onmarkproductions.com
“Although it looks fearsome, the Qilin only punishes the wicked. It can walk on grass yet not trample the blades and it can also walk on water. Being a peaceful creature, its diet does not include flesh. It takes great care when it walks never to tread on any living thing, and it is said to appear only in areas ruled by a wise and benevolent leader (some say even if this area is only a house). It is normally gentle but can become fierce if a pure person is threatened by a sinner, spouting flames from its mouth and exercising other fearsome powers that vary

Traditionally Mythical: GriffinGriffin or Gryphon
“"The Gryphes are so called because they are winged quadrupeds. This kind of wild beast is found in the Hyperborean Mountains. In every part of their body they are lions, and in wings and heads are like eagles, and they are fierce enemies of horses. Moreover they tear men to pieces.".”
- Isidore of Seville
“After that comes a region of very rich soil but quite uninhabitable because griffins, a savage and tenacious breed of wild beasts, love- to an amazing degree- the gold that is mined from deep within the earth there, and because they guard it with an amazing hostility to those who set foot there."
- Pomponius Mela
“Grypas (Griffins), Aristeas of Prokonnesos says in his poem, fight for the gold with the Arimaspoi beyond the Issedones. The gold which the Grypas guard, he says, comes out of the earth; the Arimaspoi are men all born with one eye; Grypas are beasts like lions, but with the beak
