A Lesson's motmot (Momotus lessonii) was seen at the Aracari & Birding Deck near Kinkara Luxury Retreat at Santa Elena in southern Costa Rica.
Lesson's motmot (Momotus lessonii ) is a colorful near-passerine bird found in forests and woodlands from southern Mexico to western Panama.
At the entrance to Thiksey Monastery's main prayer hall, a young monk interprets the Bhavachakra, or Wheel of Life, for a companion. This complex diagram serves as a visual teaching tool, illustrating the six realms of existence and the three poisons—ignorance, anger, and attachment—that drive the cycle of rebirth. The entire wheel is depicted in the clutches of Yama, the Lord of Death, a stark reminder of the impermanence of all things.
When a 9 year old expressed interest in learning photography, I obliged with a quick evening lesson. With this as our subject, it was a brilliant mini session that I don't think he will soon forget.

After finishing the lessons in Scott Kelby's "7-Point System for Adobe Photoshop CS3", I had to go back and revisit some of my older stuff.
I started with this JPG image, adjusted the foreground using Camera RAW and then made another image in Camera RAW and adjusted the sky.
I merged the two images in Photoshop and then darkened the sky, lightened the foreground, desaturated the blues and yellows a tad, etc.
It's not remotely realistic. The sky is pretty dark for an image that's looking right at the sun.
Oh... and if it looks familiar, it's because I did another HDR Version months ago.
I could have printed this, but learned so much by doing this myself. Inspired by so many great pages previously posted by the group!
There is no end to remembrance and thus no line that can be drawn under our responsibility. Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier. Berlin, 29 January 2025.
The annual open-air and free history lesson at the heart of Berlin's government district, here from 2019, begins in late spring or summer and usually lasts until October 3rd, our National Day. The 30-minute light show/projection (which starts at dusk and is repeated several times until midnight) turns the Marie-Elisabeth-Lüders-Haus (MELH), one of the main parliamentary buildings, into a huge canvas. Every year the show is a little different but always focuses on German (parliamentary and general) history. Lessons learned or history repeating?
I have been spending a great amount of time exploring and learning about my new favorite place 7 miles from where I live...learning what a remarkable birding place this is. I didn't go looking for the Kites this day but as I was watching the shorebirds I heard a screeching near by and there they were. This appeared to be a 'hunting lesson' day as the young kites perched on a nearby juniper tree and occasionally would hover over the field. When this one landed the parent landed next to it and I believe was encouraging it to go find it's next meal!
Seht der Mensch; The Shooting Lesson, 2007. By Dutch artist Folkert de Jong in Rabo Art Collection, Depot Museum Boijmans, Rotterdam.
…add color to hands and head only. Emphasize the interaction between the three, subject is a person of students choice, use expressive line but no shading.
Our local river [the Esk] is one of few Salmon rivers in Yorkshire and people can pay to fish with an expert who knows the waters. I watched this pair as I took shots, just after sunrise, and the light was just perfect. I couldn't believe that they stood in the patch of cross light to aid my composition.
I love lemurs but I confess that their frenetic movimentation bothers me a little because makes the sharp photograph so difficult or even impossible.
After many comes and goes these two were so beautiful side by side, in a perfect pose (the pose that I wanted since the beginning), but the third guy insisted on spoiling the photo in just one lesson - jumping on the other two guys :))
I can almost hear Mom pronghorn explaining to her little one the lessons of life ... stay away from humans, practice your running skills because you are going to be a marathon runner, and remeber to fluff up the white fur on your rump whenever you sense danger! (that is how they communicate danger to one another)
Smile.

Large motmot of tropical lowland forest and edge, mainly in humid areas. Perches low to high, usually in shady areas. Blue crown with a big black central patch, unlike solid blue of Blue-capped Motmot, which occurs to the north. Plumage overall less contrasting in pattern than Turquoise-browed Motmot, with much smaller tail rackets. The name ‘motmot’ comes from double-hooting call of this species, which can sound like an owl, and is mainly uttered around dawn.
30 minutes of walking around in the woods, we found a small clean spot where i could take a few shots. We all got the cold after that haha.
Anyways, have a great day people of Flickr! :)
Having fun with Khayrullo Dadoboev (Tadjikistan) and Berkant Çakıcı (RUS / Turkey) before starting Tamburi Mundi Festival 2022, Stadtgarten Freiburg (GER)

“People who’ve never read fairy tales, the professor said, have a harder time coping in life than the people who have. They don’t have access to all the lessons that can be learned from the journeys through the dark woods and the kindness of strangers treated decently, the knowledge that can be gained from the company and example of Donkeyskins and cats wearing boots and steadfast tin soldiers. I’m not talking about in-your-face lessons, but more subtle ones. The kind that seep up from your sub¬conscious and give you moral and humane structures for your life. That teach you how to prevail, and trust. And maybe even love.” ― Charles de Lint
And more lessons... lots of lessons today .... starting out with, if it's a 70 degree day in November, forget the work you are supposed to be doing and do what you WANT to do .... which leads to a mission to find more props for upcoming adventures, and a phone call, which I ignored the first time, but the second time, I figured I should answer, only to have a friend say to me... "I'm in Home Depot and pints of fake blood are $1.69... how many should I pick up for you?" Wait... what? Blood .... in Home Depot.... and I find myself saying... uh..... get me 3, no ... never mind, I'll go to my Home Depot and get them, you don't have to get them for me.... and that, was pretty much the end of any chance of getting things accomplished.... a fog machine (YeY!! I've always wanted one....) several pairs of crazy tights, a Halloween wreath, a bag of bones,a deer antler headband, candles and more.... and yes, a pint of fake blood later, the day was out of control. All plans of accomplishing anything were forgotten, I put on hiking books, noted that it looked like it would be a good sunset, and headed off into the woods...where I lost all track of time and missed what I'm sure WAS a spectacular sunset, judging by the deep pink that I could just see through the trees in the woods ... and when I finally made it out of the woods... there was pretty much no light left.... and no point in even trying to do anything constructive, with pretty much no way to justify how I had spent my day off. But, hey!! I now have a fog machine... and a pint of fake blood! (Yey, me!!) But, wait.... what was the lesson that I learned..... ? I forgot.
