"push pin" persistence of memory [tribute to salvador dali]
perhaps the greatest painting of the 20th century certainly the painting that launched the highly influential surrealist movement. the "in" joke is "don't you mean persistence of vision" which is one of the fine artists most important tools. by relying on "persistence of vision" and the brain's desire to make sense of an image artists are able to realize incredible effects including unbelievable realism and romanticism like renoir or bold statements like andy warhol. just love dali's great painting. big surprise. it's actually a small 7x7 canvas with a lot of diagonal lines and false perspective. it is "gibralter" and not some nameless presqu'il. the "pig skin" is an unbelievable counterpoint to the otherworldly landscape and images. the "twig" is yet again the only rational element yet burned to death. perspective continues ad nauseum. the experience is beyond belief. "is that really a painting"?
The only sure way to succeed is to try try again.
Every time you fall down, you can always get up and try again - literally and figuratively. We must never lose hope in anything, especially ourselves. Keep on trying.
In my life, I fail every day, but as long as I keep trying, I eventually succeed.
This is my friend Mike. He must've tried for four hours, plus a large chunk of the previous day to ride this unicycle. He kept falling down again, and again, and sometimes he would run into me, and then fall down. But now, he can go for a ridiculous distance, and is pretty much ridiculously amazing at it.
This is true for virtually anything and everything in life. Just try one more time
(personally, I'm still learning this concept, because it's definitely harder to carry out than it is to say. But persist in your persistence, and it will pay off!)

After two restful days at the Wyoming High Country Lodge we circled back to Devil's Tower, also known as Bear's Den or Bear's Tipi, in northeastern Wyoming. It was very cloudy and wet, but in all very awe inspiring.

Prints For Sale Here: jay-spectre.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d3hnw3z I shot this at the Cincinnati Zoo on Saturday , May 28. It was a hot day and I had worn my hoodie with a very tight white shirt underneath. I wanted to take off the hoodie, but I was afraid of giving onlookers a free wet t-shirt contest. This elephant looks sad and tired here, but at the same time very solid and persistent. I think the persistence wins out.

I noticed this flower, yesterday, growing outside my dentist's office in Rensselaer, New York, USA. In these uncertain political times, we can still "bloom where we are planted!"
Persistence and the good fortune to be able to travel widely in the UK and abroad will ensure that I remain a major contributor to CRWDP and similar sites. Today, I am posting five pictures from the Brighton area.

Flickering candlelight barely outlines the deep tunnels you seem compelled to tread. Like a sleepwalker, some ill conceived compulsion takes you deeper into the labyrinth of memory.
Suddenly a barred door appears by the guttering candle. Nameless dread at what lies beyond overwhelms you as you hear a rustling scrape from beyond the crusted, long unopened gate...

When I first realized what was going on I simply could not believe my eyes. I quickly grabbed my camera and, fumbling for the power button, tried to find a good place to shoot without being seen. I pointed and shot.
This woman is probably in her seventies, wearing flip-flops, heavy-duty gloves and a kerchief over her flowing white hair. In her hands are a box which she is folding up, ready to toss it into her burlap bag which sits comfortably on its two-wheel hand truck waiting to be carried off.
There is an amazing lesson to be discovered here. This old woman probably has joint pain, muscle pain, all sorts of pain. She isn't skinny and that probably doesn't help. But this woman's got bills to pay, and despite her old age and tired body, she's got to make the best of things. I would have never thought that manual labour was the ideal labour for an older woman but now I see that anything is possible, as long as you put your mind to it. I learn persistence from this old woman on the busy streets of Istanbul.

"Persistence Works" is presumably a pun built on the historical associations with the local cutlery industry whose factory buildingsare nearly always 'works' - Truro Works, Albion Works etc.
