Three April Fools

 

MacroMonday - April Fools

Young love goes away. I’m pretty sure it does. Whether it’s a couple that’s been married for decades or an old flame, it goes away. With mature age should come a different kind of love. Two mature people should fall in love all over again with their new selves.

After being bumped while trying to shoot fireworks without a tripod. I noticed the resulting picture to have a swirling effect. I started taking shots while motioning the camera in tight CW circles. This one worked out pretty good.

So this week for Macro Mondays theme 'April Fools' we've been tasked with photographing something goofy, silly, funny or humorously arranged like funny-faced bugs, fruit or veggies, silly little toys, or objects arranged to make a joke or pun.

 

Ladies & gentlemen, I give you:

I NEED TO BE IN LOVE ♥ THE CARPENTERS

 

"I know I ask perfection of a quite imperfect world and fool enough to think that's what I'll find."

Our only fools Xmas party.

Last week I took my family to Cape Kiwanda for mothers day despite the forecast of rain . I haven't shot any seascapes with the new gear so I had been itchin to give it shot. 30 minutes prior to this it was a full on monsoon where each drop of rain felt like cubes of ice pounding on your skull. There was very little wave action going on so a ventured pretty far down the sandstone to capture what little wave action there was. When the sun broke through I looked down at my feet and the stone shimmered like gold .

American Fool is the fifth studio album by John Mellencamp, released under the stage name John Cougar in 1982. The album was his commercial breakthrough, holding the No. 1 position on the Billboard album chart for nine weeks.

Truth, like gold, is to be obtained not by its growth, but by washing away from it all that is not gold.

The Fool or The Jester is titled Le Mat in the Tarot of Marseilles, and Il Matto in most Italian language tarot decks. These archaic words mean "the madman" or "the beggar", and may be related to the word for 'checkmate' in relation to the original use of tarot cards for gaming purposes.

 

In the earliest Tarot decks, the Fool is usually depicted as a beggar or a vagabond.

The Tarot of Marseilles and related decks similarly depict a bearded person wearing what may be a jester's hat; he always carries a bundle of his belongings on a stick slung over his back. He appears to be getting chased away by an animal, either a dog or a cat. The animal has torn his pants. In the Rider-Waite Tarot deck and other esoteric decks made for cartomancy, the Fool is shown as a young man, standing on the brink of a precipice. In the Rider-Waite deck, he is also portrayed as having with him a small dog.

 

In many esoteric systems of interpretation, the Fool is usually interpreted as the protagonist of a story, and the Major Arcana is the path the Fool takes through the great mysteries of life and the main human archetypes. This path is known traditionally in Tarot as the Fool´s Journey, and is frequently used to introduce the meaning of Major Arcana cards to beginners. The Fool is the spirit in search of experience. He represents the mystical cleverness bereft of reason within us, the childlike ability to tune into the inner workings of the world. He is seemingly unconcerned that he is standing on a precipice, apparently about to step off.

 

The number 0 is a perfect significator for the Fool, as it can become anything when he reaches his destination. Zero plus anything equals the same thing. Zero times anything equals zero. Zero is nothing, a lack of hard substance, and as such it may reflect a non-issue or lack of cohesiveness for the subject at hand.

Here is a high tech April Fools joke from Google. The end is surprising when you realize the whole thing is a joke. I was thinking while watching it that it was a great idea for the little ones in our life to have a self diving bike. It's short and worth a look click HERE

 

The localizing of fools is common to most countries, and there are many other reputed imbecile centres in different countries. In the Netherlands it is (among others) the people of Kampen, were a "Kamper onion" is a name for spot and plague story in which the pretensions and stupidity of its residents are depicted.
