For MacroMondays theme "Heritage"
Both my parents work with education, my mother is a teacher and my father is a professor at the university, so even though I didn't choose their profession, I've inherited their curiosity about new things.
Didn't know how to make an image about learning, so this pen (and the decoration, which is on the other end of the pen) gets to represent learning. I think making notes or writing essays is part of studying.
Happy MM!
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

PHEW! I'm so glad to get this blog post finished and into the great wide world before the weekend truly begins!
Though I'm still new to the process of taking green screen pictures, I think this one turned out all right! Read a bit more about it on the blog if you like. Full credits, as always, included. FOR FREE!

Ten days ago I posted an image of a female Hyena teaching her sibling how to play with a stick. It didn't take the youngster long to find out what to do with it.

“People will not always understand you.
Dare to be different.
People will not always believe in you.
Prepare to work harder.
People will not always do right by you.
Let them go.
People will not always love like you.
Keep loving harder.
Nobody’s opinion of you will matter when you know who you are.
Love Thy Self enough to walk in your own light.. down your own path.. and accept that sometimes we grow apart from people.
Sometimes we lose a lot of the people around us because they were only placed in our lives to help teach us something about ourselves.
Be open to learning.
Be welcoming to change.
Find yourself.
Be yourself.
Love yourself.”

I want to teach to my sons to fly too, for they're coming with me in many trips.
But, there are too youngs for the moment, I think so...That's so diffcult to train yourself with a Teddy bear in your... wing... :D
An other difficulty : Try to make a great pic with the midday sun : Really shiny, without any shadow, and a big reflection on the sand and the sea... An excellent exercise... ;D
Picture taken by my wife (Thank U my love!), reloaded by myself.
"Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone my senses reeled
A fatal attraction is holding me fast
How can I escape this irresistible grasp?
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earthbound misfit, I…
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
No navigator to find my way home
Unladen, 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 and twisted just an earthbound 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
Could 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 skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earthbound misfit, I…"

This one is a bit personal, both the image and the lyrics…so please be gentle with me!! :)
There is only so much I can do with my Canon SX30 but I am learning. Taken from my kayak on the Kalamazoo River between New Richmond and Douglas, Michigan. July 27, 2012.
I want to fly with my own wings to a faraway place
Do you remember my Pullip Kaela: Kaede? <3 lately I don't bond very well with her... for this reason I even put her up for adoption.... but in the end I decided to keep her and make a look change because after all she's a beautiful and special pullip for me ^__^ so here is the new Kaede! I hope you like her so much as me <33

The Diamondback Rattlesnakes would use the ropes on the platforms to climb up on top. It was warm enough in the building that the snakes were fairly active.

Is just as critical as learning to fly. This youngster doesn't have it quite nailed yet as it tended to kind of drop the last foot into the nest with a thud.
