hey people.. i've been kinda busy with the holidays.. but everything is ok :)
so.. the other day i was sitting in the backyard with my family.. and this little guy fell to the ground.. we assume that he was learning to fly and fell off..
my brother was the one who managed to catch him and we left him on the roof.. so that other birds could help him.. a few minutes later we saw a bunch of birds calling him and they helped this little guy to get back to his tree :)
sometimes is difficult to learn to fly.. and you may fall.. but with some luck a helpful hand will appear and lift you back to where you belong
**Explored!**
"Learning should be a joy
and full of excitement.
It is life's greatest adventure;
it is an illustrated excursion into the minds of noble and learned men."

Into the distance, a ribbon of black
stretched to the point of no turning back
a flight of fancy on a wind swept field
standing alone my sense reeled
a fatal attraction holding me fast, how
can I escape this irresistable grasp?
can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
tongue-tied & twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
ice is forming on the tips of my wings
unheeded warnings, I tought I thought of everything
no navigator to guide my way home
unladened, empty and turned to stone
a soul in tension that's learning to fly
condition grounded but determined to try
can't keep my eyes from the -circling- skies
tongue-tied & twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
above the planet on a wing and a prayer
my grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air
across the clouds I see my shadow fly
out of the corner of my watering eye
a dream unthreatened by the morning light
gould blow this soul right through the roof of the night
there's no sensation to compare with this
suspended animation, a state of bliss
can't keep my mind from the circling sky
tongue-tied & twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I

One of the very rare occasions I will take centre stage in one of my pics ;-) Special thanks to my brother for hanging out in the freezing cold for a few hours and light-painting me with my fave colour... or is it?
When we succeed in learning something we feel better, more confident in ourselves and our ability to tackle all sorts of new tasks.
Knowledge is power. ...
One of the most crucial reasons to learn something new is that you gain brain power when you do. You will improve your mental health.
Apples are extremely rich in important antioxidants, flavanoids, phytonutrients and dietary fiber. which may help reduce the risk of developing cancer, hypertension, diabetes, and heart disease. Apples also boost the brain by protecting against memory loss and lowering the occurrence of strokes.
Here's how your brain and body benefit when you crack open a book.
Reading gives muscle to your memory, gives your workout more staying power, keeps your brain young, can melt away stress, boosts your vocabulary, improves empathy, can encourage life goals.
ODC - Learning Objects
I'm open for possibilities. I'm open for choices. I always welcome new ideas. I'm always eager to learn. I'm never going to close my mind from learning.

Have a great sunday!
Fijne zondag!
Morgen start weer een nieuwe fotocursus... Benieuwd wat er zal gebeuren!
The Rolex Learning Centre ("EPFL Learning Centre") is the campus hub and library for the École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), in Lausanne, Switzerland. Designed by the winners of 2010 Pritzker Prize, Japanese-duo SANAA, it opened on 22 February 2010.
Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa, partners of the Tokyo-based design firm SANAA, were selected as the lead architects in EPFL's international competition of December 2004. The team was selected among famous architects and even some Pritzker Prize Laureates such as Zaha Hadid, Rem Koolhaas, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Jean Nouvel, Herzog & de Meuron, Ábalos & Herreros and Xaveer De Geyter.
The construction took place between 2007 and 2009. It cost 110 million Swiss francs and was funded by the Swiss government as well as by private sponsors (Rolex, Logitech, Bouygues Construction, Crédit Suisse, Nestlé, Novartis and SICPA).
The building opened on 22 February 2010 and was inaugurated on 27 May 2010. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolex_Learning_Center

A veces me reencuentro conmigo mismo y solo basta una imagen que me lo recuerde.
Caminé tantas veces por estos espacios abiertos, donde solo la brisa marina y mis pasos solían dar curso a mis pensamientos.
Ahora cuando miro me doy cuenta de cuanto me faltaba entonces y cuánto me falta ahora, logré tantas cosas que soñaba, sin embargo deje otras realizadas en el camino.
Observando a este padre, con su hijo en el muro de esta tan transitada vía, contemplando como la vida transcurre tranquila y sin prisas en medio de una tarde de Octubre, me siento con ganas nuevamente de tomar por asalto el mundo y mirar como este niño con ojos grandes las pasiones del futuro.
Sometimes I come back to myself and a picture it is enough to remind it.
I walked so many times by these open spaces, where only the sea breeze and my steps used to follow up my thoughts.
Now when I look I realize how much I was missing then and how much I need now, I got so many things I dreamed, however let others made along the way.
Watching this father with his son on the wall of this very busy road, watching as life goes quiet and unhurried in the middle of an October afternoon, I feel like again to take by assault the world and look like this child passions with big eyes the future
I like scenes like this . . . the parents or elders teaching and passing down the cultural traditions. We need more of that.

Learning To Fly
Tom Petty
Well I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
And the town lit up, the world got still
I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Myself and my mate Ian have been waiting for fog for some time now at Chipping Norton. Missed it yesterday because it wasn't forecast, but nabbed it this morning! YAY!!! This is a 7 shot Panoramic.More shots to come from this morning later. Hope you like "Learning To Fly". Mike
I was cutting my lawn this afternoon and noticed a rather large commotion going on in the corner of my yard. Junior was learning to fly with the assistance of at least two adult females and one adult male cardinal. They were very enthusiastic about the process. I turned off the mower and ran inside for my camera - how sweet is that little bird face?!
first time in tour with my a6000.
first photo tour in the woods to be honest.
i have alot to learn
Hope you like it (:
There is a steep learning curve when it comes to photographing reflective subjects, especially small ones like rings. We have been shooting this engagement ring in our latest video, watch it here >>> youtu.be/qCH2eIRJxt8
Wedding photographers, collectors and product photographers all need to get detailed, creative and hassle-free shots of rings and jewellery, but lighting reflective subjects can be a pain. Controlling where the reflections fall is often very tricky with conventional lighting.
The answer is to scale your lighting down with the subject. Don't try to eliminate reflections all together, but control them. The Adaptalux Studio makes this an absolute dream. With the flexible arms and adjustable brightness, precise adjustments are easy and fast.
The image you see here is a pretty stylistic one, but adding even the smallest amount of colour can create some amazing bokeh and highlights in a shot that would otherwise be plain!
We like to demo the studio with reflective subjects for this exact reason. We were showing off rings and pocket watches at The Photography Show this year (thanks again to everyone that came to see us at our stand!).
Showing off what the Studio can do got us thinking about rings in more detail, you can read our thoughts on our blog here >>> bit.ly/adaptaluxrings

Just doing a few jumping shots with Ms. Monnie & Aj ,';0]...
Don't think Ms. Monnie quite got the hang of it as she never really took off!
Aj tried to hold her hand, I thought it was sweet.
I made lots of these hearts so I hope you aren't sick of them. I will be spending a lot of time on Flickr tomorrow to catch up so I apologize for my delay but, looking forward to seeing everyones cards.
In case you haven't noticed I show how to make these hearts on my blog under "Tuesday's Tips" and have some blog candy too!
