I took this image 18 months ago, with an ISO of 8,000
When I took it my Photo Shop skill was basic and no knowledge of noise reduction.
I have since re-edited and this is the result.

In the library of Jesus College, Oxford. The black marks on some books are actually ribbons, used to tie the books together - they are so old and fragile and, at times, even broken.
Jesus College (with the full name Jesus College in the University of Oxford of Queen Elizabeth's Foundation) was founded by Queen Elizabeth I in 1571 - it was the first Protestant college founded in Oxford, and had the purpose of educating a suitable clergy. Women were admitted to the college in 1974. Female students had been in Oxford since 1875, living at women colleges, but they weren't allowed to take a proper degree before 1920, but the colleges remained for either men or women - and the women colleges weren't given full collegiate status until 1959. Jesus college was actually one of the first to allow for both male and female students. Now the college teaches a variety of subjects (not just for the clergy) and has some 350 undergraduates.
I have met semi-literate village intellectuals with a lot of wisdom and highly educated scholars not in control of their motivations. The relationship between wisdom and knowledge is a tricky one. Let us try this formulation: wisdom without knowledge is an impossibility, knowledge without wisdom is vacuous. The point here really is the definition of knowledge or, more precisely, the privileging of a certain type of knowledge (let us call it, for lack of a better term, the academic variety) over other types. Such other types may be emotional knowledge, or social and cultural abilities. The whole sector of artistic expression should be mentioned as well. Just to make the point again: wisdom is based on knowledge, it is not a "return to childhood". So, little cherub, go out into this world and make yourself knowledgeable, you might get wisdom, too.

On the night of 10th May this year we had a major flood event in Hobart, Tasmania. We had 3.5 times the average monthly rainfall in 24 hours - 130mm.
On that night it was very stormy. But when it was in full force it was quite extraordinary. Our laundry ceiling collapsed and we had a river of water flowing through the ceiling. Our family had a bucket train going to minimise the damage as best we could.
And the whole time, there was constant lightning in the sky. Non-stop. Never seen anything like it. Almost expected to see the rim of a massive ufo appear through the clouds.
The next morning when we looked at the world around us, we saw that the University suffered much worse than we did. This photo is of the Law building - water flowed through the library, bursting the doors and a river of books were swept onto the car park and the oval. Quite extraordinary. The engineering building basement was flooded completely.
So six months later, our laundry is finally being repaired by the insurance company. Either a testament to how widespread the damage was and the lack of resources to fix everything in a reasonable time, or something else.
A message for all my contacts in Europe, first of all I am very sorry that last night we left the European Union which is in my opinion is a tragic mistake. I would also like to apologise to you all for the lies and distortions about Europe printed by the largely right wing British press and echoed by Farage and Johnson and their friends . Being part of the EU was never just about economics, the need for nations to work together was seen as vital after the apocalypse of the Mid -twentieth century caused by rampant nationalism . We seem to have returned to a state were bullying political leaders in both the East and West feel they can do whatever they want .
I am still proud to call myself a European, whatever makes up being English is largely just a melange of mostly European culture from the Normans, the Goths, the Vikings and the Romans . I want to celebrate our continent so all my posts this month will be from various European countries .
This first image is the old 1st century Roman Alcántara Bridge that crosses the river Tagus below the city of Toledo . The city of Toledo was an important cultural centre in the middle ages; even after the Moors were defeated its Arab libraries were not pillaged, and a tag-team translation centre was established in which books in Arabic or Hebrew would be translated into Castilian by Muslim and Jewish scholars, and from Castilian into Latin by Castilian scholars, thus letting long-lost knowledge spread through Christian Europe again
THANKS FOR YOUR VISITING BUT CAN I ASK YOU NOT TO FAVE AN IMAGE WITHOUT ALSO MAKING A COMMENT. MANY THANKS KEITH. ANYONE MAKING MULTIPLE FAVES WITHOUT COMMENTS WILL SIMPLY BE BLOCKED
Knowledge without love inflates the ego and deceives the mind. It can lead to intellectual snobbery, an attitude of mockery and making fun of other’s views, a spirit of contempt for those with lesser knowledge, and a demeaning way of dealing with people who disagree. - Alexander Strauch
No one can define where the limits of “nature” in this sphere lie, unless one would lay claim to having an absolutely complete and comprehensive knowledge of all the powers at work in nature.

With his camouflage, spotted pattern, and a body and muscular evolved for ambush, if you happen to be prey, most often you don't even know who has been watching you before it's all too late.
This Leopard we only spotted thanks to a few other vehicles before us having seen him climb up the tree and resting down for the day. Even though, it took a bit of pointing out and searching with Binos, before we could make him out between all the branches and leaves.
We were fortunate, in that he kept moving around a little to find a more comfortable spot, so I managed a small series of good spots - it was a tough decision of which of these I'd like to display on Flickr and in the end decided on 2 :)
Seeing Leopards is always special. Never taken for granted, and always in the full knowledge of the presence of a Predator that would have no qualms in shelving us in their prey repertoire, given the chance. I don't think I have any such rush of emotions when watching a Lion Pride, or a Cheetah family... purely irrational, and purely emotional and I cannot explain it, but there it is.

Irlanda, County Dublin, Dublino, Primavera 2023
Il Trinity College (irlandese: Coláiste na Tríonóide), è l'unico collegio costituente dell'Università di Dublino, un'università di ricerca a Dublino, Irlanda. La regina Elisabetta I fondò il college nel 1592. L'università ha formato molti dei poeti, drammaturghi e autori irlandesi di maggior successo, tra cui Oscar Wilde e Bram Stoker. La Sala Lunga è la camera principale lunga 65 metri della Biblioteca Vecchia, la Sala Lunga, fu costruita tra il 1712 e il 1732 e ospita 200.000 dei libri più antichi della Biblioteca. Inizialmente, la Sala Lunga aveva un soffitto piatto, scaffali per i libri solo al piano inferiore e una galleria aperta. Nel 1850 la stanza dovette essere ampliata man mano che gli scaffali furono riempiti perché alla Biblioteca era stato concesso il permesso di ottenere una copia gratuita di ogni libro che era stato pubblicato in Irlanda e Gran Bretagna. Nel 1860, il tetto della Sala Lunga fu rialzato per ospitare una galleria superiore. La Sala Lunga è fiancheggiata da busti di marmo.
Trinity College (Irish: Coláiste na Tríonóide), is the sole constituent college of the University of Dublin, a research university in Dublin, Ireland. Queen Elizabeth I founded the college in 1592. The university has educated many of Ireland's most successful poets, playwrights and authors, including Oscar Wilde and Bram Stoker. The Long Room is the 65-metre-long main chamber of the Old Library, the Long Room, was built between 1712 and 1732 and houses 200,000 of the Library's oldest books. Initially, The Long Room had a flat ceiling, shelving for books only on the lower level, and an open gallery. By the 1850s the room had to be expanded as the shelves were filled due to the fact that the Library had been given permission to obtain a free copy of every book that had been published in Ireland and Britain. In 1860, The Long Room's roof was raised to accommodate an upper gallery. The Long Room is lined with marble busts.

I was amazed by the ceiling in this room, which symbolized for me the Tree of Knowledge at the Gottesman Research Library and Learning Center of the Museum of Natural History in New York. It was designed by Studio Gang, the international and urban practice design firm led by Jeanne Gang, and was reopened in 2023.

----------------------------- JESUS ✝️ SAVES-------------------------------
SALVATION THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST - ALONE!
12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."
❤️❤️ IT'S ALL JESUS AND NONE OF OURSELVES! ❤️❤️
16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the SALVATION of everyone WHO BELIEVES: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. 17 For in the gospel a RIGHTEOUSNESS FROM GOD IS REVEALED, a righteousness that is by FAITH FROM FIRST TO LAST, just as it is written: "THE RIGHTEOUS WILL LIVE BY FAITH." (Romans 1:16-17)
16 KNOW that a man is NOT justified by observing the law, but by FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be JUSTIFIED BY FAITH in CHRIST and NOT by observing the law, BECAUSE BY OBSERVING THE LAW NO ONE WILL BE JUSTIFIED. (Galatians 2:16)
1. Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. 2. BY THIS GOSPEL YOU ARE SAVED, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4. that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, 5. and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. 6. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. 7. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, 8. and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born.
9. For I am the least of the apostles and do not even deserve to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them--yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. 11. Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed. (1 Corinthians 15:1-11)
7. Therefore Jesus said again, "I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. 8. All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. 9. I am the gate; whoever enters through me WILL BE SAVED. He will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10. The thief comes only to STEAL and KILL and DESTROY; I have come that they may have LIFE, and have it to the FULL. (John 10:7-10)
1 Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved. 2 For I can testify about them that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge. 3 Since they did not know the righteousness that comes from God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness. 4 Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.
5 Moses describes in this way the righteousness that is by the law: "The man who does these things will live by them." 6 But the righteousness that is by faith says: "Do not say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?'" (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 "or 'Who will descend into the deep?'" (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? "The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart," that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: 9 That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. 11 As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile--the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." (Romans 10:1-13)
Jesus came to bring spiritual LIFE to the spiritually dead and set the captives FREE! FREE from RELIGION, ERROR and outright LIES, so WE might serve THE LIVING GOD! In SPIRIT and in TRUTH!
So you'll KNOW, and not think you're to bad for God to love. The Christian LIFE isn't about how good WE are, because NONE of us are! It's about how GOOD JESUS IS! Because JESUS LOVES US, so much he died in our place and took the punishment for all of our sins on himself. The wages of sin is DEATH, and Jesus took the death WE so richly deserved for us and died in our place. The good news is, there's no more punishment for sin left. WE, you and I were all born forgive as a result of the crucifixion of God himself on the cross that took away the sins of the whole world. All we have to do is believe it, and put your Faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ. That my friends is REAL UNCONDITIONAL LOVE! YOU ARE LOVED. ❤️ ✝️ ❤️

The Most Confidential Knowledge
‚If any pure-hearted devotee offers Me a leaf, a flower, fruit or water with love and devotion, i will surely accept that gift.
The preparation may be delicious or not, but if it is offered with love and a feeling that it is very delicious, it becomes most delicious to Me. At that time, I give up all other thoughts and relish it. Even if such a fruit or flower has no taste or fragrance, I still accept it, being captivated by My devotee’s prema.‘
Bhagavan is now explaining the quality of that worship: it is easy to perform. When an easily attainable object, such as a leaf, flower, fruit or water, is offered to Bhagavan with devotion, then He accepts it in an appropriate manner, even though He is endowed with unlimited opulence and is perfectly satisfied. He becomes hungry and thirsty because of His devotee’s love for Him and, absorbed in that mood of devotion, He eats the offering out of prema.
Spreading knowledge, adventure and love one book at a time!
People can take a book for free as long as they replace it with a different book. We have a lot of these in our community. I thought this one was cute because it looks like a ladybug.

……This was a new route to Hawkers cove we found after chatting to an elderly local couple with their 3 dogs, we saw them a few times and asked how they got to where we saw them the second time! A great walk & nobody using it!! Local knowledge goes a long way and we always enjoy a chat with them - some visitors can be a bit ’sniffy’ and won’t even say good morning as they pass! Back home now & lawns to cut (after the rain!) and Jill’s got a mountain of washing after 10 days away!! And we’ve got to get ready for a visitation from family which will be great. Alan:-)
