we all should strive for knowledge, not necessarily in this way :)

I don't know why but I feel that this is not my style & that its not me who captured it, who knows this might be my style!! time will answer that
On the streets of Nizhny Novgorod on the Day of Knowledge (1 September). 1 September — The First Day of School for Children in Russia.
A varition of my "Töröööh"
One of the many fountains in "Cirr-cus producing enough clouds of knowledge and rain of insight to hide this beautiful city in the sky.
I have just submitted this one as an entry to "Your city in Your eyes" contest in Dhahran - Saudi Arabia.
This tower is the symbol of the university. I tried to take the shot from an angle that I think was "interesting"...I hope you find it so!
My absolute lack of knowledge regarding night photography meant that the vast majority of my Preston station evening shots never made it out of the camera.
The 5Z81 Carnforth - Aberystwyth empty stock movement was headed by 57601. Unfortunately my dark & blurry shot of it was deleted before the train even came to a standstill.
A tad more luck was had at the opposite end, however, and here we see Tail End Charlie 57313 attracting attention from Andy, David & Bruce.
These stairs lead up to Kaufmann Jr's pad on the 3rd floor of the Fallingwater House. He and his parents of the Kaufmann Department Store owned this house from the late 1930's to the early 1960's when it was donated by Kaufmann Jr .to the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy. Since that time, the public has been able to tour this incredible house.

What pheromones are to ants, the internet is to us modern human beings. When those traces of chemical messages are broken, ants are at a loss; so too flickrites when the electric signals are absent. But now I can share a photo again... if not yet comment readily.
Between the larger islands of Panay and Negros lies smaller and very pretty mango-tree verdant Guimaras lapped by turquoise seas. From the lovely city of Iloílo in the southeast of Panay, take a banca, a motor boat with outriggers, about half an hour to Buenavista, a port of Guimaras. Board a tricycle there and be taken to Neptune Pittman's Resort. It's in fact a small 'bed-and-breakfast', and it's set in a wonderful, private botanical garden. Neptune Pittman has collected exotica from all over the world. Here she and a very pleasant knowledgable staff of young women and men nourish them.
It's more of a horticulturalist place than a botanical garden. Still, I had a fine morning there marvelling with three young ladies of the staff over the beauty of both green and flowering plants. There's a nice Jade Vine and Black Orchids from southern Mindanao - neither in blossom now but interesting to see. Most plants, though, are exotics from elsewehere: great bromeliads, succulents, agaves, jasmines but also those beauties of the tropics: plumerias.
This is a Passiflora miniata. Before 2006 when John (R.J.R.) Vanderplank put some order to the Passifloras, one of its popular names was Passiflora coccinea. I've posted a photo of one earlier from the slopes of the Merapi on Java, Indonesia. But I liked the ants on this one...
Walking the gardens with the nice staff admiring exotics, my eye fell on the pretty weeds, many in flower. So I pulled out my magnifying glass, and we had a good time learning about those small and common plants - e.g. some nice spurges - neglected here as elsewhere. Meanwhile the Pharmacist from V. was having his coffee in the shade of magnificent stands of Thunbergia.

"In India, everyone seems to know this.
Philosophy isn't a form of gymnastics, it isn't the monopoly of the educated, it isn't reserved for academies, schools, or "philosophers".
Philosophy in India is part of life; it is Ariandne's thread leading the way out of the labyrinth of ignorance.
Philosophy is the religion offering a hoped-for salvation, which, for Indians, means knowledge.
Not "useful" knowledge for the sake of manipulating, possessing, changing, or dominating the world; but rather, as sacred texts say, "that knowledge which once attained leaves nothing else to know": self-knowledge."
(from "India Notes" by Tiziano Terzani - Italian journalist and writer,1938-2004)
Tiziano Terzani wrote about India like no other, his words are deeply connected to anything I see through my camera.
This sadhu was walking along the Ganges at Bhonsle Ghat in Varanasi (Benaras) where time seems to have decided to stop for ever, as if the atmosphere there wanted to be wrapped in a veil of philosophy, of self-knowledge...

The Museum of the History of Science houses an unrivalled collection of historic scientific instruments in the world’s oldest surviving purpose-built museum building, the Old Ashmolean on Broad Street, Oxford. By virtue of the collection and the building, the Museum occupies a special position, both in the study of the history of science and in the development of western culture and collecting.
The present collection of the Museum preserves the material relics of past science. As a department of the University of Oxford, the Museum has a role both in making these relics available for study by historians who are willing to look beyond the traditional confines of books and manuscripts as well as presenting them to the visiting public.
The objects represented – of which there are approximately 20,000 – cover almost all aspects of the history of science, from antiquity to the early twentieth century. Particular strengths include the collections of astrolabes, sundials, quadrants, early mathematical instruments generally (including those used for surveying, drawing, calculating, astronomy and navigation) and optical instruments (including microscopes, telescopes and cameras), together with apparatus associated with chemistry, natural philosophy and medicine. In addition, the Museum possesses a unique reference library for the study of the history of scientific instruments that includes manuscripts, incunabula, prints, printed ephemera and early photographic material.
The Museum has a long history. The Old Ashmolean Building itself was completed in 1683 as the world’s first museum open to the general public, housing the collection of Elias Ashmole (1617-92). As well as Ashmole’s collection, the building also encompassed a broad range of activities associated with the pursuit of ‘natural knowledge’. ‘The Museum’ as originally conceived institutionalized a new way of learning about nature that emerged in the seventeenth century, with experimental philosophy being pursued in a chemical laboratory in the basement and lecturing and demonstration taking place in the School of Natural History on the middle floor. Only in 1924 with the gift to the University of the collection of Lewis Evans (1853-1930) did the Museum begin to take on its present role as a Museum of the History of Science, with Robert T. Gunther (1869-1940) as its first curator.
Explored!
It took our ancestors thousands of years to light it, it took me only a few seconds. Knowledge is the key and it needs to be applied properly.
My daughter has her degree now and took her own photo next the the old buildings of our University of Otago. I am hoping future emplyers will be impressed by the way her mind is branching out and the way she sees things from a different angle.
Sorry to my contacts for being a bit busy recently. Back tonight.
