Here is a question for you: Since I watched Mercury transit the Sun in an electronic viewfinder, did I really see it?

non so se vi è mai successo.

Thank you very much to all of you my dear Flickr friends for your so kind comments!
Ok Woodsman! Your ego isn’t too humiliated?
I just want to put your ego knockout! :)))
Woodsman, do you realize how many sexual acts I see in spring and summer around my stream? :)))
Yesterday I asked to you these questions: do you see that your desires are the expression of your insatisfaction about your past, your insufficiensies? and do you think it’s the samething with the sexual desires?
You answered you were not sure!
Woodsman, you certainly know that your sexuality is the source of all the energy? Right?
Do you realize that in the life of all the people the sexual acts with their lover are the closer experience to the unity…. the closer experience to your return to the unity?
But also, do you realize too that your sexual attirance for the women is always caused by your separation of the unity?
Do you see better now that your total satisfaction is impossible as much as you’re separated of your lover… of the others…. of the light… of the nature?
Ok Woodsman, that’s all for today! Tomorrow my questions/story will be on the difference between you and me!
:)))… to be continued tomorrow…!
My wild river reflection!

Today at university a girl asked a question about God and his mystery... in few words my professor replied with the quote written..
I love listening and discovering how people think.. Even if their answer might be incomplete..one day it will be complete.
We all love photography judges who give us first place, but when our photos slide past unnoticed, well, the judges are simply Philistines. Can't they recognise our brilliance!
There is a part of me that would prefer not to judge photography competitions because all I can offer is a subjective opinion. And often I am asked to provide a comment or suggestion as to how a photograph could be improved or strengthened. Essentially I am being asked how I would have photographed or presented the image to get a higher score. Should I be doing this?
Recently, I listened to judges discuss one of my prints which had a grainy, black and white finish. One said that he didn't know why I had applied the finish as it wasn't something he would have done – and maybe it would be better without the finish.
This set me thinking: does this judge mean that unless I create photographs the way he does, he won't give me a high score? And if this judge doesn't like grainy black and whites, does that mean he will never score such entries highly?
To be fair to the judge in question, he was trying to be helpful by making a suggestion as to how the image could be improved.
So let me give another example. I am not a big fan of HDR (High Dynamic Range) photographs, but I gave an HDR photograph first place in a competition not so long ago. Personally, subjectively, I didn't like the photograph much, but as an example of its kind, it was superlative.
I think that from time to time, judges have to step aside from their biases and judge the photograph as an example of its kind. Perhaps the judge looking at my photo should have assessed it on the basis that the entrant chose to submit a grainy black and white print: was this a good or bad example of its kind?
So, what's different when I'm critiquing a photograph that I think could be improved? For instance, I find a white sky incredibly distracting, so I suggest that the photographer could have found a different camera angle, crop the image, or somehow darken down the sky to improve it. What's the difference between this advice and suggesting that a photograph would be better if it wasn't a grainy black and white?
Context.
In the first situation, the judge seemed to acknowledge that the underlying technique was good, it was the final finish he didn't like. He didn't say the finish was over done or poorly handled, just that it wasn't necessary. So perhaps he didn't judge what had been presented, rather he judged what hadn't been presented.
In the second situation, the base photograph with the bright sky was not communicating correctly and a different approach was required. (In my opinion, I know.)
The difference is subtle and it's not always possible for a judge to know if an entrant is investigating a genre of photography or just doesn't know any better. That's the problem with judges – and for judges. Often we just don't know.
So while a part of me doesn't like judging, on the other hand it's something I greatly enjoy. I love being exposed to different styles of work and new ideas. It is incredibly inspirational and so are photo competitions. Of course, you probably don't expect me to say anything different. Our inaugural International Landscape Photographer of the Year Award has had around 2000 entries, but if you missed out, we'll be announcing our annual Better Photography Photograph of the Year Award later this month!
So, the problem with judges is what?

Hi guys! Are there ANY body normalmaps that are compatabile with EEO face normals?

Easy to identify this butterfly with that big white question mark on the side of the wing. Found it in my back yard.

"Was it worth it?"
Just another question to ponder while walking six block is soaking wet corduroys, grinning like a fool.
"Yes," is the answer.
On our visit to the Ol Pejeta Wildlife Conservancy, we observed a group of chimpanzees at the chimpanzee conservancy. One of the Chimps that caught my eye was this fella! Laying in the Sun and enjoying the breeze, it appeared he was thinking about some deep philosophical questions! Apes are amazing aren't they?
After doing some serious research on the id of this bird, I came to no conclusion.
In early spring, at the same area, I saw two of them but never had time to take a shot. Because they flew almost right away, I thought they were Nashville Warblers. To my big surprise this week, I have seen them again. So that told me it was not a Nashville Warbler. It looks like a female Redstart to me but the yellow is very bright and all over the front which is not a female Redstart pattern. Also there is no pattern at all on the wings. I assume this is an adult as I have seen them in the spring. I have several shots but you can see the white and dark coloured pattern under the tail and some white patches on top of the tail..... I checked so many birds and still have no clue what it is. I would really appreciate your comments on that one. What do you think it is?
Do you know what "hikifakcava" means? That's a Lebanese way to tell someone, Hi, how are you?
This one simple sentence (or shall I say a mutant-word), consisting of 3 different words, in 3 different languages - Hi (English), kifak (how are you/Arabic), ca va (French), fully expresses the lingvo-cultural diversity in Lebanon.
This tiny land is a mix of all confessions, cultural and ethnic groups otherwise scattered throughout the Middle East. Christian Maronite, Greek Orthodox, Melkite and Protestants, Muslim Sunnis, Alawites, Ismailis, progressive Muslims and Druze. Add to this work immigrants from India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and all over Africa.
When you ask a simple question to a random passer by, he first answers you in Arabic (they say I look like a local), and when you say your Arabic is very limited, they ask "Engish? French?". And when they know I'm Armenian, they'll always find a word or two in my native language to say :)
Sometimes, though, these utterly nice, hospitable, kind people make wars. And they kill each other because of religion, ethnicity, and anything else they can think of. The last civil war in Lebanon lasted from 1975 to 1990, and took lives of around 250,000 people. All Lebanese.
Now, to the positive side.
They call Beirut "The Paris of Middle East". It's been continuously inhabited for more than 5000 years now. It still bears traces of French colonization, not only in language, but also in architecture. Beirut is unlike any other Middle Eastern capital in being very liberal and culturally progressive. More than anything, Beirut is about arts, expressing one's ideas through street paintings, graffiti and music. We came across these stairs on a random street, while having a walk. We then spotted few more, with different patterns and colors.
Before we traveled to Beirut from Amman, a colleague told me, "Everyone loves Amman until they visit Beirut". And "You'll either hate it, or love it forever".
I love Beirut.
Thanks for your visit and have a great day!
From Dollar Lake looking south, immediately, our decision to continue on our trek was questioned.

I've been wanting to make the joker batman for a while now and I only have one batman cowl left. I was going to use it for another bat figure that I started a while ago, but now I really want to make the joker batman. Should I just do it??
Why do I like fog so much? Good question. It washes out detail and gives everything a soft ghostlike quality. Hmmm, maybe that's why. It's always nice to leave a little to the imagination.
