Dhaneta Jat girls.

 

The Jats who live in Kutch are particularly conscious of their identity as a group and their sense of unity comes from a perception of shared historical traditions and a belief in common ancestry.

Originally the Jats were herders who lived in an area called Half in Iran. Five hundred years ago these shepherds migrated from Half and came to Sindh and Kutch to search for new grazing lands. They crossed the Rann of Kutch and settled there taking up farming, they became known as Dhaneta Jats. Some have devted themselves to the study of the Koran and are known as the Fakirani Jats. All the Jats in Kutch are Muslims and have similar marriage and dowry customs.

 

The Dhanetas are the largest of the Jat Communities. They live throughtout north western Kutch. The Dhanetas live in the Banni, herd cattle. The men care for the animals and women remain in camp looking after their families.

Es la librería mas especial que conozco.

Ademas de poder comprar libros que se pueden considerar joyas, el olor que estos desprenden originan esa percepción de todo lo que nos gustaría llegar a leer.

Una pena lo acotado que tenemos el tiempo en nuestras vidas .

Pasear entre sus estanterías es un placer infinito.

 

It is the most special library know.

Plus you can buy books that can be considered gems, these emit the smell can get to rise to this perception of everything that we should really be read.

Bounded a shame we have the time in our lives.

Strolling among its shelves is an infinite pleasure

I was so excited to FINALLY see some snow outside our windows that, with "Window Wednesday" in mind, I took a shot of these two images which were placed randomly on my windowsill in December.

 

NOT until I just uploaded this post did I notice that the watercolor on the left blends so naturally into the real background it looks like I just put a mat on the sill!

 

I promise you this was NOT planned! The photo card I received from my husband is on the right, and his watercolor is on the left, along with a little added "Charlie Brown" tree . . .

 

WOW! CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS?

  

In life we have to navigate between reality and our perception of it. This image is looking straight up into the sky from under a huge Cherry Blossom tree in full bloom during the day. What alters the perception of reality is the keen focus on the midday Sun in the center of the image from under the shadow of the tree. However, the reality is I was standing under a beautiful sea of pink Cherry Blossoms in full bloom, but the perception is that it was dark and colorless with the exception of a single brilliant light above, that being the Sun. We have the ability to change focus and greatly adjust our perception of reality. Tidal Basin, Washington DC, 8 April 2018.

No matter how small you feel, there is always a giant behind you.

"Depth Perception (2):" I took this photo last year in a remote area of the Hassayampa River. The water in which I was standing when I was shooting was already knee deep. If you look closely into the water, just beyond the rocks in the foreground, you may see that there is a sudden drop-off into a bowl-like chasm, the depth of which I did not want to measure myself. Instead, I stopped and enjoyed the reflections of the colorful rock patterns across this watery abyss.

Pacific Place, Queensway. 2014.

 

The 18th century, the age of Enlightenment is marked by the modernist ideal of ultimate perception. The telescope which was increasingly used in this era was a means of unlimited perception from the below and of the above, whilst the Eiffel Tower which was built a century later was the medium of unlimited perception from the above and of the below.

A day off and a trip into London to wander along the South Bank for shots followed by lunch with a friend. Weather was kind and I had great fun! Best viewed on black.

Perhaps best known for his paintings of women in idyllic Tahitian settings, Paul Gauguin was an artist whose career spanned the globe and whose prolific body of work flouts categorization. An expert at self promotion, Gauguin shed the social and artistic conventions of the time to defy definition and transform the perception of what it meant to live within the realm of complete artistic freedom. The exhibit explores the artist’s unpredictable and, at times, fantastical forays into the applied arts while situating them within his radically experimental oeuvre as a whole. Featuring his work in ceramics, woodcarving, printmaking, and furniture decoration, and their relationship to his canvases, the exhibition acknowledges the artist as a visionary and controversial figure.

This image just kept getting darker and darker... but that's not really where I wanted it to go. So I thought I'd find a poem or something to explain darkness in the image, so I started to look up the word sorrow but instead came across a wonderful bit of conversation between two sisters - Marianne and Elinor in the novel Sense and Sensibility - where Marianne is caught up in the fabulous whirl of leaves as they fall... and her sister is... should we say.... not! Sisters!! :))

Està la petjada enfonsada o en relleu? i la roca? ara gira la foto (o el teu cap) 180º i torna-la a mirar!

Està la huella hundida o en relieve? y la roca? ahora gira la foto (o tu cabeza) 180º y vuelve a mirarla!

Is the footprint bumped? and the rock? now rotate the photo (or your head) 180º and look again!
