Every “fact” has to be shaped into language and communicated (with paintings or films representing peripheral language phenomena). But to the extent that a “fact” becomes language it has already entered into a very particular horizon of understanding, into the broad field of preunderstanding. Interpretation has already begun one stage earlier. It starts with the reception of external sense impressions in our brain. Already, to a scarcely imaginable degree, there has been a process of selection, division, sorting, organizing, cataloging—and all this with the aid of models of experience that our brain has been constantly accumulating since we were embryos.

I broke my cardinal rule here about not allowing dappled sunlight to fall across a model's face. But Katie's unrelenting gaze and the absurdity of the wolf head mask brought about a strong Diane Arbus vibe. Nothing mattered except the scene before me, and I wasn't about to start tweaking it. I shot the photo before even a single thing changed. The effect is an ambiguous feeling of more questions than answers.
Newts tend to mate during early spring. Capturing them in the act requires enormous patience, good peripheral vision and luck. If the 20 second introductory ritual proves satisfactory to both parties, the male forcibly grabs the female from behind, as seen in this photo. Within several seconds they entwine into a ball and rapidly swirl to the bottom.
In order to photograph this phenomenon, one must remain completely still, overlooking the water for an extended period. Newts aren’t frightened by large shapes but rather by motion.
A person who resists the urge to reposition might as well be tree. But scratching an itch could send the eager partners fleeting in different directions. The trick is to watch for one newt approaching another, then focus and wait to see what happens.
Once at the water’s bottom, the male deposited his sperm package on a leaf for his partner to uptake through an opening called a cloaca, leading to her sex organ.
Though not a very romantic union, the birthing process is surprisingly tender. The female lays 2 or 3 eggs per day, gently nestling them in floating plant roots for protection. Hatchlings remain there until ready to venture forth.
A White-tailed buck has his attention drawn to something in the distance while keeping his peripheral vision and ears focused on me.

Bus and Tag is an "IBM standard for a computer peripheral interface", [IBM Corporation. "IBM Terminology 'O'" IBM Globalization.] and was commonly used to connect mainframe computers to peripheral devices such as line printers, disk storage, magnetic tape drives and IBM 3270 display controllers.
My husband collects such things, along with instruction books and manuals. He optimistically gave me a related old manual to read, and I looked for a verb to understand a sentence.
But basically, these are #pins that connect to whatchamacallits. Back in the day.
About 2 inches /5 cm (see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bus_and_Tag#/media/File:IBM_360_Bus... ) for size.
The view from the kitchen window of a long abandoned farmhouse near Shabbona,IL.Historical satellite views of this farm from 1999 show it in pretty much the same condition-the fine old barn has collapsed now however-so this view has been pretty much the same for awhile now.One exception:the farm across the road has been obliterated,leaving this decaying hulk alone in its misery...
I did not put the "tilt" in this picture,the kitchen appeared to be an addition at some point and it had decided to "separate from the rest of the house"....

First climbed by Henry Russell in 1865. Not a great shot - and I wonder if the manual lens setting was wrong, as the peripheral quality of the image is really poor - but, the clouds had a specific quality over the Marboré, which in turn was delivering waterfalls of fresh water from melt and rain...
An interesting Wiki text:
"Le fait qu'il soit le plus haut massif calcaire d'Europe possède également une flore très unique. Sur les quelque 3500 espèces de plantes vasculaires que l'on trouve dans les Pyrénées , seules 150 sont capables de dépasser 3000 m d'altitude, et parmi celles-ci, 95 ont été localisées dans les 34 "intrusions" du massif du Monte Perdido et à proximité. Seuls les trois points des Gabietos en rassemblent une demi-centaine."
The Gabietos of the text are after the Brèche de Roland, so a little way from the Cylindre, and closer to the Tailllon, but they are from the same sedimentary massif, and the data remains stunning. Even quite late in the season - June, July - snow is melting at high altitude, and blooms of flowers can be seen on the wet mats of new green. By August the landscape on the Spanish side can seem dry, brown and, but for the occasional spring, very mineral.
