The Children of dune

I am feeling rather down – there is something wrong with my eyes. At first I thought that I am just tired as I have been working long hours overtime on the computer but yesterday I had to admit that the eyes should have gotten better already. They are red, teary, swollen and feel like they are full of sand. I had a prayer at the church yesterday and they are much better today but still feel like I better have some rest. But how one has an eye-rest? Anything even remotely interesting involves eyes! (and this is the source of Alexandral's feelings of deprivation!)

But I swear I'll have some eye rest just after I post "The Children of Dune" screencaps. :D I started watching these mini-series from [livejournal.com profile] baleanoptera's rec and though they are flawed "The Children of Dune" are intensely, insanely beautiful. I used to be a huge fan of the books with their mind-boggling complexity and "The children of Dune" is probably the best adaptation so far. I haven't finished watching it yet (see – EYE REST!) but I made some screencaps, I just could not stop. I am not usually not a fan of intense yellow colour but it all changed after I beheld golden Leto Artredis (aka James McAvoy) and his sister..So iconable !

I never watched this series because I read the first few books of Dune and didn't like them at all, but I adore James McAvoy so I very much liked this pic spam :) I also have some fans of Children of Dune on my friends list so I know that they'll be very interested.

As to your eyes, definitely see a doctor! I had a lot of eye troubles when I first moved to Asia. My eyes just weren't used to the pollution and it's very difficult to concentrate (or see!) when your eyes are sore.

Oh, why didn't you like the books? (You don't have to answer - I am just curious!)

I am so sorry to hear about your eyes! Of course, I went to the the doctor. He said it is a form of infection. I am still battling it - some days are better then the others!
