Life Celebrates Diversity

We ought not to ask why the human mind troubles to fathom the secrets of the universe. The diversity of the phenomena of nature is so great, and the treasures hidden in the skies so rich, precisely in order that the human mind shall never be lacking in fresh nourishment.
― Johannes Kepler

"La vida esta en la diversidad, no en la monotonía"
"We should indeed keep calm in the face of difference, and live our lives in a state of inclusion and wonder at the diversity of humanity." - George Takei
The project was launched by the late president of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, who wanted to establish a structure that would unite the cultural diversity of the Islamic world with the historical and modern values of architecture and art.
A Richardson’s geranium (Geranium richardsonii) leaf glows in a light fleck traveling across the forest floor littered with fallen aspen leaves. The reds of the geranium leaf, along with the strawberry leaves (Frageria virginiana) in the background, are provided by anthocyanin pigments formerly masked by the more dominant green chlorophyll. The yellow and orange aspen leaves are colored by xanthophyll and carotenoid pigments. These non-green pigments help increase light capture for photosynthesis, as well as protect the plant against ultraviolet light, cold temperatures, and pathogens. Whatever their role the combination of the pigments and the resulting diversity of colors makes autumn a lovely season, at least for a few days in this forest.

Solo lo spirito può suscitare la diversità, la pluralità, la molteplicità e allo stesso tempo fare l'unità. Perché quando siamo noi a voler fare la diversità facciamo gli scismi e quando siamo noi a voler fare l'unità facciamo l'uniformità, l'omologazione.
(Papa Francesco)
Only the spirit can stir diversity, plurality, multiplicity and at the same time making the unit. Because when we want to make the difference we make schisms and when are we to want to make the unit do the uniformity, the approval.
(Pope Francesco)
Patagonie. Cette image d'une autre époque traduit bien le décalage culturel de ce coin de pays. Cultural diversity. Lonesome cowboy.

Welcome to Denali NP ... a place where the wildlife roams and the landscapes loom ... a wilderness environment like none other.
I remember the first time we visited to Denali NP. I was so perplexed at the fact that only the first 15 miles could be explored from the car (or RV in our case). How could we ever get "into" the park to savor its treasures? I soon realized that the shuttle bus system, though frustrating at times, was our ticket for discovery and exploration. For us, it's on and off of the shuttle, leaving the in between times for hiking on the non-designated trail system. Those trails are DIY trails and full of places where you could literally be the first to experience that moment. Of course, that would not be the case for this image. These caribou antlers were on an informal exhibit atop the Eielson Visitor Center well inside the park. To me, they represented the varied wildlife within the boundaries of the majestic Denali wilderness.
Denali NP is the subject of our blog this week, and next week as well. Check it out if you haven't done so already. It can be found at

On a side note, we have just returned from out west, with photography opportunities within Yellowstone NP, Grand Teton NP, as well as a few surrounding areas. It was wonderful being away, but also nice to return home. I will be trying to catch up on some of your photostreams this week.
