If you refuse to drink from the fountain of knowledge, you'll die of thirst in the desert of ignorance!

For some reason I thought a tree of knowledge should spring from the cranium

Learning from the past

Everyone deserves that power.

Our world doesn't seem to learn.

That war is not the answer.

That history repeats itself.

That the same problems we said we'd aim to fix ten years ago.. still persist today.

And the only way to change, advance, and revolutionize

Is to enlighten the world.

Me and a few other ARC troopers of the 253rd have been ordered to take a little detour back to Kamino before our next mission. Command has ordered us to pass on our knowledge and train the next batch of ARC troopers, that will one day fight beside, if not replace us. I am happy to assist in training. I remember how I was in such a ARC promotion program and thus know what these recruits might be capable of one day. I’ll try my best to teach them well.

Miltalie school was a one teacher school which opened in 1915 to service the local area which is north-west of Cowell on Eyre Peninsula, South Australia. It had 11 female teachers during its 20 year life.

I have had this key for a little while and have always thought it's quite vintage looking, but have never been able to come up with anything until last night when this popped into my head...and this has come up exactly as I saw it, which isn't always the case...Easy Peasy day! (for a change)

A view of Aya Sophia in Istanbul, Turkey.

At least, that is the motto seen here over a side entrance to the old main building of Hamburg University. It is not that old, only dating from 1911. And it did not start as a university (that happened in 1919, in the Weimar Republic) but a "Kolonialinstitut". Germany before 1918 did have colonies. Knowledge as an instrument of power gets a totally new meaning then. But even later, when being a university, this academic institution was rather particular where its knowledge ought to be invested. For the Jews they did not cry when thousands were assembled next door virtually, at the Moorweide, and deported to their death. Knowledge? Yes. But whose knowledge, whose power? Fuji X-Pro1.

If you've a head for hedge mazes, you will be rewarded at the end by entrance to a vast and breath-taking library. Who knows what knowledge might lay between those pages!

Photomanipulation

 

Note: all images of pictorial been merged with some using adobe photoshop

When photographing the Paul Sabatier University library (Toulouse, France), I wanted to capture the geometric essence of this modernist architecture. I deliberately chose a diagonal framing to create strong visual tension and transform this familiar building into an almost abstract composition. The black and white treatment allowed me to emphasize the contrast between dark and light surfaces, while highlighting the repetitive patterns of windows and panels. I was seeking a clean image where lines and shapes become the main subject, moving beyond mere architectural representation to reach a more graphic and contemplative dimension. This photo tells the story of my fascination with how modern architecture can be reinterpreted through a minimalist lens.

Här kommer mitt bidrag till fotosöndags veckotemat - kunskap.

 

Denna gången så var det min dotter som satt modell. Det roliga var att jag ville ha en annan komposition. Men halvvägs genom sittningen så kliade hon sig på huvudet och hennes uttryck var perfekt. Så vi tog det i stället lol.

 

My contribution to fotosöndag's weekly challenge - knowledge.

 

This time my daughter was the model. It was funny as I wanted to go for a totally different shot but half way through posing she scratched her head and the expression on her face was perfect. So we went with that instead lol.

Sorrow is knowledge, those that know the most must mourn the deepest, the tree of knowledge is not the tree of life.

In 1986, the district association of the west part of the city funded a competition for a new outdoor sculpture to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the city of Reykjavík. Jón Gunnar’s Sun Voyager won the competition, and the aluminium model (42,5 x 88 x 36 cm) was presented to the city for enlargement. The full-sized Sun Voyager was eventually unveiled on Sæbraut on the birthday of the city of Reykjavík, August 18th, 1990.
