Not done much POV recently but this is a promising direction so I thought I'd
share.

Cool!  Very useful for bringing new life into those stale urban 
environments. :)

What is that with you, Bill? First shooting at brick towers, now shooting 
grass seeds?  :-)

Yes, I think this is a grand idea!

That was ages ago! Well remembered. At least this shooting is not as
destructive... :)

This image also puts me in mind of what happens if you forget to secure the
waste hopper on a high-powered lawnmower.

More grass-throwing.

This is an interesting effect but to be honest I've almost forgotten what I was
originally trying to achieve! One of those little projects that seems to be
guiding itself...

Grass is thrown through an arbitrary silhouette shape, and density is controlled
with a subtle bozo pattern.

I like it. Silly and cute.

Man walks out of the house with a machinegun under his arm. "What are you
going to do?" asks the wife. "I'm going to take care of the bold spots in
our lawn honey." :)
