WARNING - Don't Judge the Bokeh by its Cover (Imagoism)

The very common English idiom "don't judge a book by its cover" is a metaphorical phrase which means "don't determine the worth of something based on its appearance". It is probably the most common expression used in English to convey this idea.

The phrase first finally appeared in 1544 in the American journal American Speech as "you can't judge a book by its binding." In 1946 the phrase appeared in the murder mystery novel Murder in the Glass Room (by Edwin Rolfe and Lester Fuller) as "you can never tell a book by its cover.".

Happy Halloween to all , hope i didn't scare you. Photo shows two crocodiles (there are actually more than a dozen beside them) from Zoobic Safari in Subic Bay, Philippines. Bokeh at the foreground are mesh wires which protected (well, it did hehe) me from falling into their pit. Don't be afraid by the way to see in LARGE in BLACK

 

Happy Imagoism Thursday to all :)

 

Pleasant trip to our dear friend Ms Imagoism herself - Virgie, who is flying back to California today. Bon voyage!
