Made for Y SIN EMBARGO #26: UROBORUS ISSUE
Human ability for adaptation as cause and consequence. Do we change our environment to give solutions or do we change just because we’re able to adapt? Technology as an instrument for self-saturation. How much are we able to absorb? Seduction of a world that, through its advantages, drags us towards its logic? The “saturation”, defined as a situation in which solutions have turned into problems, the probable is less and less realized, and the improbable happens more and more.

La capacidad de adaptación humana como causa y consecuencia. ¿Cambiamos el entorno para dar soluciones o cambiamos sólo porque somos capaces de adaptarnos? La tecnología como instrumento para la auto-saturación. ¿Hasta dónde somos capaces de absorber? ¿Seducción de un mundo que a causa de sus ventajas nos arrastra hacia su lógica? La “saturación”; definida como una situación en la cual las soluciones se han transformado en problemas, lo probable se realiza cada vez menos, y lo improbable sucede más y más.

30 Days of Perception
This seems to represent so many recent prompts in one image. There are patterns, rhythm, wonder and the change shown in the changing of the season with the autumn leaves.

The meerkat or suricate, Suricata suricatta, is a small mammal belonging to the mongoose family. Meerkats live in all parts of the Kalahari Desert in Botswana, in much of the Namib Desert in Namibia and southwestern Angola, and in South Africa. A group of meerkats is called a "mob", "gang" or "clan". A meerkat clan often contains about 20 meerkats, but some super-families have 50 or more members. In captivity, meerkats have an average life span of 12–14 years, and about half this in the wild.
The meerkat is a small diurnal herpestid (mongoose) weighing on average about 731 grams (1.61 lb) for males and 720 grams (1.6 lb) for females. Its long slender body and limbs give it a body length of 25 to 35 centimetres (9.8 to 14 in) and an added tail length of 17 to 25 centimetres (6.7 to 9.8 in). Its tail is not bushy like all other mongoose species, but is rather long and thin and tapers to a black or reddish colored pointed tip. The meerkat uses its tail to balance when standing upright, as well as for signaling. Its face tapers, coming to a point at the nose, which is brown. The eyes always have black patches around them and it has small black crescent-shaped ears that can close to exclude soil when digging. Like cats, meerkats have binocular vision, a large peripheral range, depth perception, and eyes on the front of their faces.

If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear as at is - infinite.
William Blake ( 1757-1827)
English poet
" Depois de todas as tempestades
e dias ensolarados, hoje eu percebo.
Os conceitos e pré-conceitos caem,
e a nuvem que outrora embaçava
minha percepção não mais, me traz medo."
" After all the storms
and sunny days, now I understand.
The concepts and preconceptions fall,
and the cloud that once clouded
My perception is no longer brings me fear. "

Without getting into this too deep...let me just say that perception is an incredible thing! It is all dependent on individuals...and it is not right or wrong. it just is.
what people perceive me to be, depending on who THEY are, is something rather interesting to me...often when i was younger i was shaped by these perceptions, and by my reactions to them. Now that i am (chronologically!) grown up, negative perceptions of me don't effect me quite so much, (as in i do not give a rats patoot) and positive ones just confound me, because my perception of me is so different than theirs!
i need to stop looking thru the hole in the leaf, and only seeing the small part of me....at the very least, it will allow me to attempt to live up to what the positive perceptions of me are. i have several nicknames, that have puzzled me, based on perceptions....given to me by friends. i have not ever seen myself as any of them...maybe it is time to see me thru their eyes.....however, i do not ever think i will understand the nick name "Pickle"!! Perhaps that friend is just plain crazy :)
The weekend cometh.....go forth and enjoy!
#5063 - 2021 Day 314: After an extremely stimulating chat this morning with Caroline, and in which I cited this book, I thought I'd find an interesting and alternative way to see the cover. It is called "Perception and Imaging - Photography as a Way of Seeing" by John Suler and Richard D. Zakia.
We are apt to see things for how we know them as objects, what they're called and how we use them. And so we photograph 'things' and places. In my courses we aim to take away labels and to see in the raw, as it were, as a child might see, in terms of visual elements. And what I saw when examining the book from different angles was a mix of colours and lines, with white shapes we would understand as words.
The image on the cover might still be discernible and the words readable, but an oblique viewpoint gives a new perspective and by no means the only one. What have you looked at obliquely today?

Comments and critique are much appreciated!
Every joy, every treasure, every fulfillment that you could imagine is available to come into your life. It is only your insistence on continuing to need these things that keeps them apart from you.
But the only thing really blocking the pathway is your own perception. Take the first step, and you will see for yourself that the way is clear for you to move forward.
Stop imagining what you need, and start realizing the true and boundless value of what you have. Allow the abundance that is already yours to express itself as the fulfillment of your most magnificent dreams.
Let go of the need to need. And find your own joyous path through the richness that extends in every direction.

Day 5 of the reveals for the G+ Photo Scavenger Hunt. Category: Perception. For this I thought what is more perceptive than the 10th Doctor? The model is a co-worker of mine that does one of the best 10th Doctor's I've seen. The tardis in the background is one of his miniature collectibles that I took a nice close shot of. @tenthdoctormatt

Every person has a different view of another person's image. That's all perception. The character of a man, the integrity, that's who you are.

Another one from when I met up with Laura two weeks ago. :)
It’s easy for our perception of crime to be distorted.
Are murder and homicide the same thing?
Murder is a subset of homicide, and the terms cannot be used interchangeably. Homicide includes murder, infanticide, manslaughter, and corporate manslaughter. In the year ending December 2018, there were 732 homicides, of which 83%, or 607, were murder.
Overall, the rate of homicide in England and Wales remains low, at 12 homicides per one million people.
Firearms offences recorded by the police decreased by 2% (to 6,525) in the year ending December 2018. Prior to this, there had been an upward trend since 2014, but the current figures are still 34% below a decade ago (year ending March 2008).

Sierra Foothills, White Mountains. © Copyright 2021 G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.
A long view from the Buttermilks in the Sierra Nevada eastern foothills to the crest of the distant White Mountains.
Recently I was once again pondering how the way we approached the Sierra Nevada at first affected our overall perceptions of the character of the Range of Light. As I have noted before, during the first decades of my relationship with these mountains I approached from the west, crossing semi-coastal mountains, crossing the agricultural Central Valley, rising gradually into oak-grasslands and eventually to conifer forest, and only much later finally arriving in the “High Sierra” world of open meadows and alpine peaks. Contrast this with the experience of those approaching from the east, where the range presents a very long “wall” of peaks that towers above high desert, in places rising by as much as 10,000 feet above that dry landscape.
This photograph is, probably obviously, one that focuses on that eastern part of the Sierra. But here I look away from the Sierra Nevada, past the rugged and “barren” terrain of dry hills at the base of the range, across the expanse of Owens Valley, and toward the (also dry) peaks of the White Mountains. To put it plainly, you won’t see anything like this on the west side!
