Is this reservoir half empty, or...
Ladybower Reservoir summer 2018. I had planned to photograph the sink holes but after such a long dry summer they were standing a metre or so above the water level, I had to be content with some general views...no wind at all also meant an LE wouldn't do too much...ah well...
You may think the Red Pin is Larger, Truth is they are the same size...............Perspective has created this illusion.
FOR E.
On the Soul (Greek Περὶ Ψυχῆς (Perì Psūchês) is a major treatise by Aristotle on the nature of living things.
His discussion centres on the kinds of souls possessed by different kinds of living things, distinguished by their different operations. Thus plants have the capacity for nourishment and reproduction, the minimum that must be possessed by any kind of living organism. Lower animals have, in addition, the powers of sense-perception and self-motion (action).
Humans have all these as well as intellect.
Is this true?
WISH YOU ALL A MOST HAPPY WEEKEND!
"Suddenly her perception shifted and she was inside the dream looking out. In that center of stillness she watched as a powerful gust of wind stirred through the surrounding trees. She saw the face of the Morrigan fade into the shadowy bracken. The red stag bowed his crowned head one last time before withdrawing into the forest. This was the end of her journey! The quest, her memories, and her dreams melted away into the morning mists and flowed backward to the place she began. She recognized the familiar path back home."

Created for Mel/Lauraxfire who is doing the hard yards at the moment and to whose connection here on flickr has been my privilege.
Always wonderfully generous with a keen sense of humour,Mel's art which is always inspirational takes you on journeys never envisaged and is just an amazing experience to view ..!
This piece is inspired by the following quotation found on Mel's profile page...
(When the doors of perception are cleansed, man will see all things as they truly are, infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things through narrow chinks of his cavern...William Blake 1793)

There is a big difference between whether something is like that or whether you think something is like that. Much in our life is our own perception.
Depth perception is the ability to see the world in three dimensions and to perceive distance. Although this ability may seem simple, depth perception is remarkable when you consider that the images projected on each retina are two-dimensional.
