..one day I'm gonna catch one of these buggers just right. Bit of history for you in the meantime, this swan is a survivor of part of a flock originally given to winston churchil apparently. Now resides at slimbridge.
Its also a proud parent of three this year who on an autumnal theme hatched only a few weeks ago, much later than the mute swans. I find it interesting to see how non-native birds who don't have a migratory pattern to speak of percieve season outside of their country of origin. What tells the black swan to breed now when its genetic imperative for breeding is set in places like australia? I also noticed the fluffy feathers of black swan cygnets are noticeably thicker than those of mutes or berwicks, even trumpeters, and certainly those of other tropical swans. I was into insects, fish, mammals dinosaurs, and herpetiles first, and I can hold my own with anyone on those subjects but I've kind of left birds to last, and I have horrible knowledge gaps that bug me.lol. I suppose when I get really old i'll discover plants and then really give myself headaches.
I wish I knew if this was developmental in accordance to conditions, or if the feathers now keeping the cold at bay are also effective thermal insulation against intense heat and moisture loss or if elevation makes conditions similar. One to hit the literature for I suppose. Probably find no-one else was vaguely interested...
On the composition, well I suppose it merits a little explanation, its a personal thing, I like to retain the aspect of the birds bodily mass even though the image is so dark that its barely perceptible, this was never about rules of thirds etc. I find aspect of mass and viewpoint more interesting than conventional compositional rules, which lets face it, applied too widely make peoples images very samey. Its worth forgetting as much as its worth learning, its a purely transient thing. This is a bird, not architecture, and tbh I find stuff as inorganic as graphic design sensibilities when applied to photography, or indeed other art forms a bit tedious.
Its just too expected, too commonplace. Its also a cheap shortcut that people use rather than really learn to see. Learn it when your about five years old to give you structure, and then when a person in your own right- drop it like boiling lead IMHO. Human proportionate design convention apllied to nature rarely works well anyway, it makes living beings objects rather than personas in their own right and it misses the point of looking at something organic, which by definition does not apply to design theory, rather is the diluted and incompletely seen and understood master of it, and the inspiration for it. Theres no need to dilute nature with a shorthand theory. The painter whos paintings grow are often more natural and more human,than the one that plans. Master all aspects, flaws, mistakes and all. No tudor garden plan ever rivalled a tropical rainforest for beauty so I fail to see why I should use the design theory to describe nature.
Artistic licence is great, use it and laugh in the face of convention ! Make it personal!
Its all good. I'm not a machine. Never will be.
Shot taken at the comfort of my home and with the help from the good guys at Epson (for the 3d papercraft alphabet).
The set was shot for week #8 of Thing a Week.
The idea behind it was to do something that would try to illustrate a bigger Imagination compared to the Knowledge. Thought about drawing it and then taking photos of it but that wouldn't really be fair, now would it? So I decided for a more crafty way of doing it and playing with angles.
This was my chosen one. A bit of a thing because I really did like the other oens as well, it just makes it harder and entertaining!
From 2008 to 2012 the ILO collaborated with 16 microfinance institutions to test a range of approaches to foster social impact through the delivery of innovative financial and non-financial services. Eliminating child labour, fostering the formalization of enterprises, reducing vulnerability and enhancing business performance through improved working conditions – these are decent work objectives that MFIs addressed in the framework of the “Microfinance for Decent Work” (MF4DW) action research programme. The results highlighted one key message: that MFIs can achieve desired results if they identify an issue and then focus on that area to help their clients. On December 4, 2015, a knowledge sharing workshop was organized in New Delhi to discuss these findings.

One of a set of negatives from an eBay auction I won. I think these may have been taken in Lousiana. any info welcome!
It's the Whooping Crane Express! I think this was in a park somewhere in Lousiana. Have no idea if it still exists - Google came up with pretty much no info about it.
Update - People tell me this was taken in the Audubon Zoo in New Orleans! Thanks, internet people with knowledge!
Of the ten sephirot crystals, understanding is rather important for a society to come and accept each other they must know the way each other lives. Understanding the villain is the way the hero overcomes his foe and finally either converts him to good or destroys him for the good of all! Understanding is the way to friendship and unity as well as true fellowship, when we don't understand someone we will fear them completely or refuse to associate with them! Someone who opens up to all knowledge of the world and of the spirit he will be able to be at peace with them for as long as they accept him and he too in return!

This week we switched to using pencils which I am more comfortable with, but it was a bit of a challenge to cover this size. Standing up while using pencil is still a bit awkward though. :)
