„Split Decision“, eine Lichtpassage von James Turell, besetzt eine zentrale Stelle im Kunstmuseum Mannheim: den Übergang zwischen Neubau und Jugendstilbau. Die Passage bietet eine Blickachse in den Altbau auf den reflektierenden „Großen Fisch“ von Constantin Brancusi im Erdgeschoss.
Our lives are full of decisions that lead us down such paths. Paths where it is impossible to predict where they will lead us.
Of course, we usually have a wish as to where we would like to end up. And we usually have a fear in our luggage. The fear that the path will lead us to a place we cannot handle.
Both are completely normal. Because where knowledge is lacking, imagination sets in. It's always been that way. And so it's completely okay if we're afraid of the unknown. This fear is a protective mechanism that increases our awareness and ensures that we pay attention to where we place our feet. Something that makes us slow down but minimizes the risk of accidents.
So when you find yourself on the path into the unknown, not only accept your wishes and visions, but also your fears.
In the end we always get somewhere. And in my experience, it's rarely the place we want and never the place we're most afraid of. So take the first step and let yourself be surprised.
Unser Leben ist voll von Entscheidungen, die uns auf solche Wege führen. Wege, bei denen es nicht absehbar ist, wohin sie uns leiten.
Sicherlich haben wir meist einen Wunsch, wo wir am Ende landen möchten. Und wir haben meist auch eine Angst mit im Reisegepäck. Die Angst, daß der Weg uns an einen Ort führt, mit dem wir nicht umgehen können.
Beides ist völlig normal. Denn wo das Wissen fehlt setzt die Fantasie ein. Das war schon immer so. Und so ist es auch völlig in Ordnung, wenn wir Angst vor dem Unbekannten haben. Diese Angst ist ein Schutzmechanismus, der unsere Aufmerksamkeit erhöht und dafür sorgt, dass wir darauf achten, wohin wir unsere Füße stellen. Etwas, was uns zwar langsamer werden lässt, jedoch die Unfallgefahr minimiert.
Also nehmt nicht nur Eure Wünsche und Visionen an, wenn Ihr mal wieder auf dem Weg ins Ungewisse seid, sondern auch Eure Ängst.
Schlußendlich kommen wir immer irgendwo an. Und nach meiner Erfahrung ist es selten der Ort den wir uns wünschen und nie der Ort vor dem wir am meisten Angst hatten. Also macht den ersten Schritt und lasst Euch überraschen.

We decided to finish our work on this borehole. To do this, we had to stay there until night. It was a bad decision. We expected to return home following our tires prints, which were clearly visible in the deep snow. In addition, the lights at the livestock farm about seven kilometers from us served as a guide. It soon began to snow storm and in 5 minutes later our previous tires prints completely disappeared and visibility reduced to 10 meters. I reduced tyre pressure upto 8.5 psi (0.6 at) and drove very slowly. It only seems that the steppe is a flat surface. There are often deep ravines with steep slopes and other obstacles. Sometimes the truck would lurch more and more to right or port side. Therefore, I had to include the rear gear to get back on a level surface. It was useless to go out and see what was the matter, as the snow was knee-deep and more. Decided to stop and spend the night on some elevated place, where snow was smaller. And it was the right decision.

With at the time, a bold forecast of heavy grain traffic in Canada, the decision was made to bring in reinforcements, i.e., pull power out of storage, which meant all but about half a dozen 8-40CM's were reactivated. BCOL 4604 was one of the chosen ones as it was pulled out of Homewood and put back in service. While the grain was not as heavy as expected, there has been an upturn in traffic recently that seems to have justified the revival. While it was not on grain when I saw it, it was leading the hottest eastbound train on the CN Flint Sub, Q148. With temps in the teens and winds comparable, the cold was definitely biting at my hands while the stack train flew by, but seeing a barn back from the brink, is definitely worth the cold fingers.
It's just not fair. After stuffing myself on great Brazilian barbecue, they bring around the dessert tray. I went with the chocolate cake.
This weekend we were out with friends wandering around the streets of London. As you might imagine, we spent loads of time also underground...and it was a really good opportunity to snap around. I hope you like the results.
Thank you all for your appreciation.

Returned to my happy place in the mountains and the first thing I do is call for the blue jay stellars and throw them peanuts. They always arrive within a minute! Sounds like I am a crazy bird lady but you know, I think I am!

American Black Bear (Ursus Americanus). This is the largest wild black bear I have ever seen. He was huge and while looking intimidating when looking at you he couldn’t have cared less about me taking his picture and strolled around eating cicadas.

I was on top of a hill trying in vain to capture a sunset, but the lens flare was intense, so in a last minute decision, I started to wander around looking for a creative solution. I think I found one in this shot!
