Photo of the Day: Did David Beckham play too much Red Dead Redemption?

Have David Beckham been playing too much Red Dead Redemption lately, or is it just me that is starting to get a bit obsessed with this game?

I think the new style of Becks looks exactly like John Marston in RDR, and I'm not quite sure I like it on him.

It fits the shabby cowboy with his rough voice and bad ass manners, but not the manicured/pedicured British with the thin voice. Maybe his stay in the US is starting to turn him into a cowboy from the Wild West? Or maybe he hopes it will?

Anyway, I guess it's just a few weeks before he changes his style again. What will it be next time? Sackboy from Little Big Planet...? Now, THAT could be interesting! ;)

Photo of the Day - Landing on Sint Maarten

Incoming airplanes approach the island of Sint Maarten/St Martin on short final for Runway 10, following a 3° glide slope flying low over the famous Maho Beach. Pictures of low flying aircraft were published in several news magazines worldwide in early 2000. The thrilling approaches and ease of access for shooting spectacular images, made the airport one of the world's favorite places among planespotters.

Photo of the Day - Isla de Mouro

La Isla de Mouro is a Spanish island located off the coast of Peninsula de la Magdalena, at the mouth of the Bay of Santander, in Cantabria. It is very remarkable, even though its territory is only 1.7 hectares. Entirely rocky and fairly flat, with a lighthouse on one of its upper reaches. It is well known by divers for the rich grounds around the island.

In July 1812 during the War of Independence, the English, Spanish allies, captured the island, where withering fire brought down the coastal defenses of the Magdalena Peninsula, taken by the French, and managed to eject them.

True Blood: The original Rolling Stones Cover

So you thought the Rolling Stones cover with the True Blood cast was hot? Well, this is how it originally should have looked like according to Pimp My True Blood. Filled with juicy stories of vampire sex, love triangles and betrayals. Now THAT'S a magazine that would have set new sales records... ;)
