Yellow Brain / Witches Butter (Tremella mesenterica)
25 January 2020
Cuttle Pool Nature Reserve, Warwickshire Wildlife Trust, Temple Balsall
So I want to start this off by saying I am consistently over-ambitious. Take today, for example. Today, I thought to myself, in my second attempt at using my new tablet, why don't I go ahead and try to draw a hood and a magic bubble and a shirt, on top of the usual hair, lighting, and color effects that I normally do.
Mind you, I don't draw/can't draw. Part of the purpose of this tablet is to try new things. Well ... I eventually gave up and realised my hood was actually a cloud. So I made it a magical effing cloud. And by the end I was just brain tired and gave up on the shirt altogether.
Anyways, a pile-up of Kira Balestra.

Because that's what it looks like to me.
Somewhere along the 17-Mile Drive between Monterey and Carmel, California.
This was taken at the base of a waterfall and the textures on the ice looked like a brain to me. It’s incredible how nature sculpts these shapes in many ways to create such a porcelain structure. I like the hint of blue that we sometimes see in the ice. We had enough of a thaw to show tiny patches of grass on our lawn and our roof was clear. Today, we have snow squalls and freezing rain again. So I am making another hearty soup. Italian vegetable with left over ham I found in the freezer.
Brain-Down Lock
Road is bumpy, thoughts fall over,
They cannot do a single step,
Your face is prisoner in a high tower,
The bridge is facing a real gap.
Seeing pictures: snapshots of life,
Grasping nothing that can matter,
Gazing thru the real world twice,
I learn an alphabet without letter.
No words who dare to paint a love,
I freeze my mind down to the hell,
Fake is the brightness calling above,
There is though only one name to spell.
Volatile wisdom blowing the air,
Acquired chances embrace the mind,
Let the grey heart be a bit fair,
I need to see then what I'll find.

While all nuts are good for your brain, walnuts may have an extra edge, since they also deliver omega-3 fatty acids. The shapes of peeled walnuts also remind me of human brain tissue,
Our Garden
At this moment of time the Garden has become an oasis of colour and peace.
Because my movement is now restricted, I can indulge my hobby with greater joy. My wife does the majority of the work (Bless Her) and I get the worst part, I do the photography. Seriously though, there is that positivity which very much helps the mental process, it keeps my mind focused and stimulises the brain. Hope you enjoy.
I am taking this photo in single-digit wind chills of a wooly sheep, sheltering itself from the elements. So, who really has the smaller brain?
This was taken at the historic Gibson farm in Prophetstown State Park, near Lafayette, IN, November, 2024.
In a Remote area of the vermilion Cliffs National Monument I came across this wonderful scene... This is not White Pocket for those that know this area, but a more remote area of Sand Hills known as Middle Reservoir.
1899 and 125 idle inside the Classic Retsof shops shortly before being pulled out for the night. These two would be the stars the following day for a special celebration for G&W's 125th Anniversary and lead a special from Rochester to American Rock Salt and return.
The Common hawk-cuckoo also known as the brain fever bird.
This bird occurs across most of the Indian subcontinent, is arboreal and prefers wooded areas.
At first glance, you may think of it as a Shikra, a raptor, because of its markings, flight and mannerisms. This imitation intimidates other birds, giving it first dibs on the best feeding spots. It's favorite food seems to be hairy caterpillars.
The male has a loud screaming three-note call that rises to a crescendo, and repeats over and over again in a hysterical manner, mostly heard during the summer months, prior to the monsoon. This call has been decoded into various languages, depending on the listener’s culture - in North India, for example, it is interpretated as “peea kahan?”, or “where’s my lover?” uttered with increasing desperation. In the state of Maharastra, it is “paos ala”, a frantic warning that “the rains are coming”. The British, when reigning in India, concluded that this bird chanted “brain fever”.
Like many other cuckoos, this bird is a brood parasite, laying their eggs in nests of babblers.
Rohan Chakravarty, a cartoonist and illustrator, has a wonderful take on this behaviour - see this at www.greenhumour.com/2022/04/brood-parasitism-and-going-cu...

An ice cream headache, also known as brain freeze or sphenopalatine ganglioneuralgia, is a brief, sharp pain in the head caused by consuming something cold, like ice cream or a cold drink. It's a common and harmless experience, typically lasting only a few seconds to a minute or two.
Rapid temperature change:
When something very cold, like ice cream, touches the roof of your mouth (palate), it causes a sudden drop in temperature.
Blood vessel response:
This temperature change triggers a rapid constriction and subsequent dilation of blood vessels in the palate and possibly the brain.
Trigeminal nerve:
It's believed that this rapid dilation activates the trigeminal nerve, which carries sensory information from the face and head to the brain, resulting in the sensation of pain.
Referred pain:
The pain is often felt in the forehead or behind the eyes, even though the initial temperature change occurs in the mouth, demonstrating referred pain, according to Johns Hopkins Medicine.

Here's a glimpse of how my brain works. Three similar photos taken from the same spot with the same exposure. First seemed not optimal with these strange inclusions left and right. Second was slightly better, possibly also balanced, with third I went into 'ooh, shiny!" mode and went for the glow in the backlit trees. Looking at it now, it seems like the first photo was the best: obvious 'flaws' remind it's made by human and I like the composition.
Shortly after I took the third photo, the dark cloud in the background went away and the sun came out with full force.

The quote is really from a recent press conference related to suggesting citizens experiment with an anti-malaria drug (hydroxychloroquine) as treatment for the Covid-19 virus.
...as in I'm pretty sure being upside down is good for their brain development. Don't quote me on that though. Unbelievably this is my fifth explore in 5 days!!!!!
Charlie was the last. No more models scheduled to shoot, for the near future.
Lady did a mighty fine job, especially as it was her first time.
(insert sex joke)
But it's time to shift things, ever so slightly. I've got a few projects waiting for me in the next few weeks, gonna hopefully stretch my legs a bit, artistically speaking.
Excited, bit nervous. Don't really like change all that much. But there's something in my brain pan saying "do something different", and if there's one thing I've learned, all my years on earth, it's this:
ALWAYS LISTEN TO THE STRANGE VOICES IN YOUR HEAD.
Real Name: Unknown
Occupation: Professional Criminal, Scientist.
Gender: Male
Height: 4'3
Weight: 81lbs (37kg)
Following his death, the scientist's assistant Mallah was able to preserve his brain in a liquid filled container.
I'd love to hear what you think.
I have major FOMO (fear of missing out), especially if David and Willie are involved. I've always admired David's desert photos and when he invited me to join on a trip to New Mexico, I knew I couldn't pass. Nevermind that the trip fell smack-dab-in-the-middle of a really good friends wedding. The trip was planned for Wednesday through Sunday and I figured I could join for 2 days and fly home in time for the wedding.
Willie and I arrived Wednesday night and drove over to Bisti. By the time we arrived there was no point going to the hotel - instead we drove straight to a sunrise location and slept for a few hours in the car. David joined us just as we were about to wake up. Sunrise was fun with the best photos taken with the drone, we caught a few hours of sleep, met up with Paul Rojas, and scouted for sunset. The area was looking like a dud, so we tore off for a different spot that David knew would be great from the drones.
We all flew the drones through 3 batteries that evening. The light on the badlands was beautiful, creating some really abstract and unique shapes. Just as my first battery was depleting I brought the drone back towards me and noticed this scene. I loved how the light was playing on the circular, brain-like shapes. Rather than landing, I kept the drone in the air until the battery nearly completely drained. I was standing just off the top of the frame here but kept coming back to this spot for these shapes.
The trip and the next few days turned out to be crazy. After spending 2 days in New Mexico, I drove back Friday night, flew out Saturday morning, drove to Yosemite for the wedding, came back Sunday morning, then turned right around and drove to Tahoe, skied one of the top 3 days of my life Monday, and was back home and at work on Tuesday. Quite the whirlwind week!

I don't know why I'm always attracted to portrait format, perhaps it's because it often gives movement to the sky, as in this sunset shot. . I hadn't got a clue what to title this, but there staring at me from my playlist was Brain Retractor, by Nick Cave and Warren Ellis. I think it's what I need sometimes, to calm me down.
