(18/52 - Theme: Feathers)
Why are we our greatest obstacle? We are given intellect, creativity, and reason. We posses astounding abilities yet we still harbor fear and an unwillingness to take risks which are bred from our own insecurities. We have wings, if only we could fly.
Probably the most time I have spent working on a photo, even though this appears relatively simple.
Many thanks to my friends for their feedback on this photo!
As a university where expression is an integral part of intellect, passions ignite pursuits in the classroom that often continue on to the boardroom. “Why” is replaced by “why not,” as Vanderbilt students discover the world of possibilities that is theirs for the asking.
Yellow: Freshness, positivity, happiness, clarity, energy, optimism, enlightenment, remembrance, intellect, honor, loyalty and joy.
Just as iron rusts from disuse... even so does inaction spoil the intellect.

Behold the resplendent beauty of the Blue-and-Yellow Macaw, a magnificent creature that graces the skies with its vibrant plumage and charismatic presence. With feathers of azure blue and sunlit yellow, it is a living masterpiece, painted by the hand of nature herself.
This remarkable bird hails from the lush rainforests of South America, where it soars through the canopy with effortless grace, its wings outstretched in a display of freedom and vitality. With a playful spirit and a raucous call that echoes through the jungle, the Blue-and-Yellow Macaw embodies the wild spirit of its tropical homeland.
But beyond its stunning appearance lies a creature of intelligence and social grace. Known for its keen intellect and ability to form strong bonds with its human companions, the Blue-and-Yellow Macaw captivates hearts with its curious gaze and affectionate nature.
Whether perched among the branches or taking flight against the backdrop of a tropical sunset, the Blue-and-Yellow Macaw enchants all who encounter it, reminding us of the boundless beauty and diversity of the natural world.
May we cherish and protect these magnificent birds, ensuring that future generations can continue to marvel at their splendor and grace.
Fly high, dear Blue-and-Yellow Macaw, and may your vibrant colors light up the skies for generations to come.

"We are not onlookers peering into the unified field of separate, objective reality - we are the unified field. We can reach beyond the physical body and extend the influence of intelligence. Every thought you are thinking creates a wave in the unified field. It ripples through all the layers of intellect, mind, senses, and matter, spreading out in wider and wider circles. You are like a light radiating not photons but consciousness. As they radiate, your thoughts have an effect on everything. Your relationship to life is the same as that of one cell to your whole body. One cell can talk to your whole body. One cell can influence your whole body. You can talk to the whole of life - influence the whole of life. The whole of life is as alive as we are. The distinction between 'in here' and 'out there' is a false one - as if the heart disregarded the skin because it was not on the inside."

De tes traîtres yeux,
Brillant à travers leurs larmes.
Là, tout n'est qu'ordre et beauté,
Luxe, calme et volupté.

I usually chose love & soft heart men for my D/s, except this time.
That's because we can't expect different results if we choose the same way and a will to understand and ability to understand are much different...
It is easier to create love and romance but difficult to create charm and wisdom.

This is a society that is intellectually blind; that follows wherever its instinctive emotion leads, applying its lesser conscious intelligence to blazing a reckless technological trail which cannot be justified, condoned, or even explained by free and independent intellect. Consequently, society has developed a confusing range of self-destructive human behaviour. Its attempted control of the situation, government and politics, is in a perpetual state of disagreement.

Grandfather to Serianna and Eiravelle, King Veydrik rules the northern kingdom of Kaldryn from the fortress of Duskhaven. A formidable ruler shaped by war and courtly intrigue, he is a man of sharp intellect and unwavering authority. Though his kingdom stands strong, the years have carved lines of loss into his stern features.
His queen has passed, his eldest son was lost to tragedy. Yet Veydrik endures, wielding both steel and strategy to secure his legacy.

Photography for me is much more than a means to an end. Every step I take in pursuit of images such as this helps form the mosaic that is my life. It's quite often thrilling to discover places and situations that result in memorable photos. But the underlying memories are equally vital. I often equate the scenes I encounter to creations on a Hollywood movie set. Yet they are very real, and I am standing in them, immersed in the atmosphere of wherever I finds myself.
All of that said, lately I'm having reluctance accepting artificial intelligence (AI) imagery into the same genre as actual photos of actual places. More than once I've clicked on a flickr thumbnail of an incredible scene wondering how on earth someone managed to capture it. I invariably feel disappointment when I discover it was purely a computerized creation. It's one thing to enhance a picture in Photoshop, but quite another to invent it out of while cloth. Feels like cheating at some level, particularly if the photo is passed off as organic. I'm okay seeing AI images, I just prefer to know when I am and am not. Unfortunately the line will become ever more blurry as the tools to generate it become increasingly available.
AI definitely has its place, and like it or not, it's here to stay. In fact it's permeating our society at all levels on a daily basis. It's being used for both healing and good, and dark and evil. And everything in between. I recently got involved with AI-generated images for a book project. Looking into copyright issues, I was surprised to discover that AI images are not eligible for copyright protection because they lack a human creator. Apparently intellectual property still requires an actual intellect. Who knew. When I inquired about how these particular images were acquired (because several depicted real-life celebrities, I was informed that the AI program renders original art based on internet searches of copyrighted photos. So sooner or later, my photos (and yours) will become source material for AI creations.

" What I am doing is creating a language. A different American language. I feel that. Genet is fascinating because of the intellectual--and it wasn't for him intellectual. Then again, I don't make a separation between intellect and emotion. I think with the great artists that I love there was the same thing. By that I mean they had a structure, technique, and the thing that made the technique and the structure move was their passion. "
This is a poem if wrote for my best friend for chirstmas. seeing as I was so poor I had little else to give. But she has been a rock to me this past year and still is my shoulder to cry on and I love her to pieces. Even though she has her own worries and insecurities she still sticks by me, so I wrote her this, to show her exactly how I feel.
Why dost thou so wound my heart
And kill the think I loved in stride
To match the less than what thou art
‘Tis another form of suicide
If in thine mirror you could see
All I have come to see in thee
How it wounds, as I behold
And see the love-left scars you bare
To see thine own love run so cold
And to never with another share
Time shall always mend thy pain
And thou shalt learn to love again
Yet for you to be bequeathed
To another mortal soul
Search thy pieces deep beneath
And make thee once again a whole
One must to thine own self look
Before thee can another brook.
And should thee need help in this
That’s why, my friend, you have I
I’ll take those pieces thee have missed
And probe them with a careful eye
In the hopes you too will see
All I have come to see in thee.
A goddess sent in human guise
You light the world where you do go
Yes, beauty not only outward lies
But deep within thy very soul
A woman, whose beauty’s fair and true
You’ll find men will always follow you
And I’ve ne’er seen you fight as hard
As when fighting for a needy friend
This unbound loyalty makes thee a star
And why I’ll follow thee till the end.
And best of all, you cannot see
Aught of wrong or fault in me
And to thine talents, take a look
Showcase them with an actors flair
Beautiful words you pen to book
And mellifluous songs to air
Do not discount all you can do
You are amazing, through and through
Thy mind is sharp, thy wits are keen
None shall have thee for a fool
So much more than what you seem
You’ll never be another’s tool
Woe is he, who’s found beset
By your fearsome intellect
And to the last but less then none
The strength that burns inside your heart
Not the kind that lifts in tonnes
But what keeps you going through the dark
You’ve a strength you have not known
But to many, like me, its clearly shown
So when you next chance to brook
Through thine mirrors glassy eye
Take instead a closer look
You shall find you cannot deny
And finally you too can see
All I have come to see in thee
Kairosclerosis. n . the moment you realize that you're currently happy—consciously trying to savor the feeling—which prompts your intellect to identify it, pick it apart and put it in context, where it will slowly dissolve until it's little more than an aftertaste. (Definition from The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows)
So this week I take most inspiration from the works of Hengki Lee, especially his out-of-focus photos and bokeh. Perfect reason to play with the boxes of Christmas lights I have laying around the house.
Also, I'm getting my visual inspirations from the words at "The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows". Then I'll put the word and the definition under the image hoping that I'm able to get my vision across.
Of course, I don't wish for you any sorrows. Enjoy the week ahead!!
A thousand years ago, a small group of polynesians paddled the worlds greatest ocean in search of a new land. For generations, their ancestors had expanded eastwards in the vast Pacific Ocean, guided only by the stars. A new piece of land was found. The settlers of this tiny virgin island called their new home Te Pito o te Henua, meaning "The Navel of the World". The name was seen fit as they were thinking that there can be no place more distant than this... and they were right.
Generations passed, and the inhabitants of what was to be known as Rapa Nui, built a civilization of art, capable of carving, raising and transporting hundreds of gigantic monolith statues, using nothing but their own hands and stone. A glyphic writing called roŋo-roŋo was evolved. A culture had risen, full of achievements, intellect, music and legends - against all odds - in an environment where one would least expect it. Children were well taught of their history and of who they are. Up until today, the Rapa Nui people remember their lineage back to the time when King Hotu Matu'a disembarked at the beach of Anakena lifetimes ago.

Dear Editor—
I am 8 years old. Some of my little friends say there is no Santa Claus. Papa says, “If you see it in The Sun, it’s so.” Please tell me the truth, is there a Santa Claus?
Virginia O’Hanlon
Virginia, your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They do not believe except they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds, Virginia, whether they be men’s or children’s, are little. In this great universe of ours, man is a mere insect, an ant, in his intellect as compared with the boundless world about him, as measured by the intelligence capable of grasping the whole of truth and knowledge.
Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus! It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginias. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The external light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished.
Not believe in Santa Claus! You might as well not believe in fairies. You might get your papa to hire men to watch in all the chimneys on Christmas eve to catch Santa Claus, but even if you did not see Santa Claus coming down, what would that prove? Nobody sees Santa Claus, but that is no sign that there is no Santa Claus. The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men can see. Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn? Of course not, but that’s no proof that they are not there. Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders there are unseen and unseeable in the world.
You tear apart the baby’s rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man, nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived could tear apart. Only faith, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond. Is it all real? Ah, Virginia, in all this world there is nothing else real and abiding.
No Santa Claus! Thank God! he lives and lives forever. A thousand years from now, Virginia, nay 10 times 10,000 years from now, he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood.
This editorial appeared in the New York Sun September 21, 1897 and it has become part of Christmas ever since.

Dotterel (Charadrius morinellus)
Meaning behind the name:
Charadrius = Latin reffering to a yellowish bird mentioned in the Vulgate Bible. One myth said that one look of this bird was said to cure jaundice (an illness that turns your skin and eyes yellow.) This Latin word included the Stone Curlew.
morinellus = Greek origin meaning: "Foolish" and it was thought that it was a foolish dull bird due to it's usual tolerance of human presence.
The English name showed it's appearance from 1440 as "Dotrelle." Like it's scientific name "morinellus," it was labled "Dotard, fool" ("dotard" definition meaning "having an impaired intellect"). Another variation is "Dot plover" which was named after it's call. This may appear to be a short version of Dot-terel, but apparently, any similarly is pure coincidental and there is no connection between the two variations of the name.
Did you know?
Dotterel sexes are revered. In other words, the females are more striking and colourful, whilst the males will incubate the eggs and look after the young.
If we listened to our intellect we'd never have a love affair. We'd never have a friendship. We'd never go in business because we'd be cynical: "It's gonna go wrong." Or "She's going to hurt me." Or,"I've had a couple of bad love affairs, so therefore . . ." Well, that's nonsense. You're going to miss life. You've got to jump off the cliff all the time and build your wings on the way down.

“Words represent your intellect. The sound, gesture and movement represent your feelings.”
- Patricia Fripp
Sir George Frederick Still (1868-1941) The father of British pediatrics.
England’s first professor in child medicine presented on 4th, 6th and 11th March 1902 a series of three lectures to the Royal College of Physicians in London, under the name “ Goulstonian lectures” on ‘some abnormal psychical conditions in children’, which were published later the same year in the Lancet. He described 43 children who had serious problems with sustained attention and self-regulation, who were often aggressive, defiant, resistant to discipline, excessively emotional or passionate, who showed little inhibitory volition, had serious problems with sustained attention and could not learn from the consequences of their actions; though their intellect was normal.
Catherine the Great - The Enlightened Empress - Part of the Regal Twelve series.
http://alexiasinclair.com/the-regal-twelve
The German born princess emerged from obscurity when she was chosen to become the wife of the future Emperor Peter III. Changing her name to Catherine, she read widely and familiarised herself with Russian conditions and values. Her fervent embrace of both the Orthodox faith and Russian culture, won her much love from the Russian people. Her husband Peter, on the otherhand, was said to have the intellect of a child. Once he succeeded to the Throne, a group of conspirators, headed by Catherine’s current lover, proclaimed her autocrat. Shortly afterward Peter was murdered.

Ode to Santorini
You came out of the thunder’s belly
Shuddering in the penitential clouds
Bitter stone, tested, defiant
You summoned the sun to be your first witness
To confront with you the impetuous radiance
To open out with a crusading echo in the sea
Sea-woken, defiant,
You thrust up a breast of rock
Scored with the south wind’s inspiration
For pain to engrave its guts there
For hope to engrave its guts there
With fire, lave, smoke
With words that concert the infinite
You gave birth to the voice of day
You raised,
To the green and rose porticos of vision,
The bells struck by the exalted intellect
Praising the birds in the mid-August light.
Close to the wave’s thud, to the foam’s lament,
Among the eucharists of sleep
When night wandered through the wildnerness of stars
Searching for the testimony of dawn
You experienced the joy of birth.
You were the first to leap forth into the world,
Porphyrogenite, sea-begotten,
You sent to the far horizons
Blessings nurtured in the sea’s vigils
To caress the hair of daylight’s waking hour.
Queen of the heartbeats, and wings of the Aegean,
With words that convert the infinite
With fire, lava, smoke,
You discovered the great lines of your destiny.
Now justice stands revealed before you
Black mountains sail in the brightness
Longings dig their craters
In the heart’s tormented land
And from hope’s struggle a new earth is made ready
So that on a morning full of iridescence
The race that vivifies dreams
The race that sings in the sun’s embrace
May stride forth with eagles and banners.
O daughter of the highest wrath
Sea-begotten, naked,
Open the glorious gates of man
So that health may sweeten the land
The senses may flower in a thousand colours
Their wings spread wide
So that freedom may blow from all directions.
In the wind’s proclamation flash out
The new, the eternal beauty
When the three-hour-old sun rises up
Entirely blue to play the harmonium of creation.
Odysseus Elytis
"There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.” (Shakespeare)
This was a dreamlike night, as we rarely experience it.
A night as we only experience it when we are still young.
I imagined to be a child again, without any influence, only with a spirit of discovery to admire the sky and its infinity.
The universe: a journey to the roots of life, a journey into the past.
I wished to forget all that I had ever read and heard.
Our reason is the enemy of all greatness, our intellect is the enemy of our spirit.
The night sky was full of stars and the night was pitch dark and gloomy.
We sat around the campfire (the smoke is visible in the picture on the left), saw a lot of bright plankton in the surf, as if sent to us from another mysterious world.
And told us stories of days gone by.
We should be able to dream of higher things and also be able to wonder.
Even today, I still think about this night.

"Η ψυχή [...] δεν παραδίδει τον εαυτό της [...] στο σώμα, αλλά δημιουργεί, από το συγκεκριμένης ποιότητας σώμα και από κάτι σαν φως της που τού μεταδίδει [...] τον ζωντανό οργανισμό, στον οποίον ανήκουν πια η αίσθηση και τα άλλα πάθη [...]. Ενώ από τα νοητά είδη [...] προέρχονται τα διανοήματα, οι γνώμες και οι νοήσεις [...]. Τα κάτω από αυτά είναι "δικά μας", ενώ "εμείς" είμαστε από εκεί και πέρα, επιβλέποντας τον ζωντανό οργανισμό από ψηλά." (Πλωτίνος, "Εννεάδες" Ι 1.7.1-18)
"...η ψυχή μας δε βυθίζεται ολόκληρη στο σώμα, αλλά ένα μέρος της βρίσκεται πάντοτε μέσα στο νοητό' όταν όμως το μέρος που βρίσκεται μέσα στο αισθητό επικρατήσει, ή μάλλον όταν αυτή εξουσιάζεται και ταράζεται από τούτο, δε μας αφήνει να έχουμε αίσθηση των όσων θεάζεται το ανώτερο μέρος της ψυχής. Αυτό που νοείται, τότε μόνο φτάνει ως εμάς, όταν κατέβει και φτάσει στην αίσθηση' διότι δεν έχουμε επίγνωση όλων όσων συμβαίνουν σε κάθε μέρος της ψυχής μας."
(Πλωτίνος, "Εννεάδες" IV 8.8.1-8).
The soul [...] does not give itself [...] to the body, but it creates, from that particular quality of that body and from something, let us call it a light that it transmits to it, [...] the living organism to which the senses and other passions belong [...]. While from the intellect [...] come the thoughts, the opinions and the perceptions [...]. Things below that are "ours", while " we" are from then on, overseeing the living organism from above. (Plotinos, "Enneads" I 1.7.1-18)
... our soul does not sink fully into the body, but part of it remains always within the intellect. But when the part of it residing within the senses prevails, or rather when that part dominates and shakes the soul, it does not allow us to sense what the superior part of the soul sees. What is conceived by the mind, only then arrives to us, when it goes down to the senses; because we are not aware of all that happens in every part of our soul.
(Plotinos, "Enneads" IV 8.8.1-8).
