as i learned from experience it’s easier said than done… but “working” on it from time to time improves the quality of life.
mind boggling

I continue to try and simplify.
I love invitations to groups. love them! but I don't like those big or sparkly icons. so, as much as I love being invited to groups, and love you for inviting me, I will delete them.
sorry.
I filled a glass baking dish with water and placed the daisy just barley under the water. I left the stem long enough to touch the bottom to keep it from moving around. After frozen I placed it in my window for back light to photograph it. Adjustments in LR and Topaz Simplify.

Overwhelmed by life? It helps me to remember that monkeys also exist, and they’re just chillin' in trees. If that doesn't work, take a nap.

Yunnan (simplified Chinese: 云南; literally "South of the Clouds") is a province of the People's Republic of China, located in the far southwest of the country spanning approximately 394,000 square kilometers (152,000 square miles). The capital of the province is Kunming. The province borders Burma, Laos, and Vietnam.
Yunnan is noted for a very high level of ethnic diversity. It has the highest number of ethnic groups among all provinces and autonomous regions in China. Among the country's fifty-six recognised ethnic groups, twenty-five are found in Yunnan. Some 38% of the province's population are members of minorities, including the Yi, Bai, Hani, Tai, Dai, Miao, Lisu, Hui, Lahu, Va, Nakhi, Yao, Tibetan, Jingpo, Blang, Pumi, Nu, Achang, Jinuo, Mongolian, Derung, Manchu, Shui, and Buyei. Several other groups are represented, but they live neither in compact settlements nor do they reach the required threshold of five thousand to be awarded the official status of being present in the province. Some groups, such as the Mosuo, who are officially recognised as part of the Naxi, have in the past claimed official status as a national minority, and are now recognised with the status of Mosuo people.
Ethnic groups are widely distributed in the province. Some twenty-five minorities live in compact communities, each of which has a population of more than five thousand. Ten ethnic minorities living in border areas and river valleys include the Hui, Manchu (the Manchu, remnants of the Qing administration, do not live in compact settlements and are in all respects indistinguishable from the Han), Bai, Naxi, Mongolian, Zhuang, Dai, Achang, Buyei and Shui, with a combined population of 4.5 million; those in low mountainous areas are the Hani, Yao, Lahu, Va, Jingpo, Blang and Jino, with a combined population of 5 million; and those in high mountainous areas are Miao, Lisu, Tibetan, Pumi and Drung, with a total population of four million.
An oft-repeated proverb tells the story of three brothers who were born speaking different languages: Tibetan, Naxi, and Bai. Each settled in different areas of Yunnan and Tibet, respectively, the high area, the middle area, and the low area.

Dans l'immobilité figée d'une photographie noir et blanc, capturée avec la patience d'un artisan, se révèle l'essence même de l'éphémère. Trois mouvements, comme des battements de cœur suspendus dans le temps, se déploient dans l'harmonie de l'argentique. C'est au lever du soleil, dans cet instant de transition entre la nuit et le jour, que l'objectif a saisi l'instant magique où trois soleils semblent danser dans le ciel.
Au centre de cette symphonie visuelle, le profil altier d'un chat Isabelle se détache avec une grâce infinie. Son pelage mêle les nuances du noir, du blanc et du fauve, comme autant de notes subtiles dans une partition céleste. Ses traits délicats sont sublimés par la lumière douce de l'aube, créant une aura mystique autour de cette créature à la fois familière et énigmatique.
Chaque mouvement du félin est une étreinte avec l'instant présent, capturé dans un jeu de multi-expositions où le temps semble se plier à la volonté du photographe. Chaque pas, chaque volte, est une invitation à plonger dans l'intimité secrète de l'âme féline, où le mystère et la grâce se confondent dans une danse intemporelle.
Cette photographie, véritable hymne à la beauté fugace du monde, célèbre la magie du moment présent et la splendeur de la nature dans toute sa diversité. Elle nous rappelle que même dans les instants les plus simples, il y a une beauté qui transcende le quotidien, une beauté qui se révèle dans le regard attentif et contemplatif du photographe, comme dans celui du spectateur émerveillé.
In the frozen stillness of a black and white photograph, captured with the patience of an artisan, lies the very essence of the ephemeral. Three movements, like suspended heartbeats in time, unfold in the harmony of analog photography. It is at sunrise, in that moment of transition between night and day, that the lens has seized the magical instant where three suns seem to dance in the sky.
At the center of this visual symphony, the proud profile of a tortoiseshell cat stands out with infinite grace. Its coat blends the nuances of black, white, and fawn, like subtle notes in a celestial score. Its delicate features are sublimated by the soft light of dawn, creating a mystical aura around this creature both familiar and enigmatic.
Each movement of the feline is an embrace with the present moment, captured in a play of multiple exposures where time seems to bend to the photographer's will. Each step, each turn, is an invitation to delve into the secret intimacy of the feline soul, where mystery and grace intertwine in a timeless dance.
This photograph, a true ode to the fleeting beauty of the world, celebrates the magic of the present moment and the splendor of nature in all its diversity. It reminds us that even in the simplest moments, there is a beauty that transcends the everyday, a beauty that reveals itself in the attentive and contemplative gaze of the photographer, as well as in that of the awe-inspired viewer.
**Chinese (Simplified):**
在一张黑白照片的冰冷静止中，用工匠般的耐心捕捉到了短暂的本质。三个动作，如同时间中悬浮的心跳，在模拟摄影的和谐中展开。在日出时刻，在夜与日之间的过渡时刻，镜头捕捉到了三个太阳似乎在天空中跳舞的神奇时刻。
在这个视觉交响乐的中心，一只三色猫的傲立轮廓与无限的优雅突出。它的被毛融合了黑色、白色和黄褐色的细微差异，就像天体的音符一样。它精致的特征被黎明柔和的光线所凸显，营造出一种神秘的光环，环绕着这个既熟悉又神秘的生物。
猫的每一个动作都是与当下时刻的拥抱，在多重曝光的游戏中捕捉到了时间仿佛弯曲于摄影师意愿的瞬间。每一步、每一转，都是邀请人们深入到猫的灵魂的秘密亲密关系中，那里神秘和优雅在一个永恒的舞蹈中交织。
这张照片，真正颂扬了世界短暂美丽的诗篇，赞美了当下时刻的魔力和大自然多样化的壮丽。它提醒我们，即使在最简单的时刻，也有一种美丽超越了日常，一种美丽在摄影师的细致和沉思的目光中显现，也在惊叹不已的观众眼中显现。

simplified and folded by me in single layer silver rectangle
I thought origami might present some interesting possibilities for this week's Macro Mondays theme, but it took a while to find something new to fold that satisfied me. I folded a few variations but didn't get around to a shoot until this morning. I narrowed down my selection to a set of four: two in blue, two in yellow. I think they work well together.
The original model uses a sheet of A4 paper folded in on itself lengthwise with edges that form a flange. The center portion is divided into diagonals that form the resulting spiral. I tried this with A4 and A5 papers and wasn't happy with either. I had a few small scrap sheets I use for practising dollar bill origami so I left out the lengthwise folds and simplified the side flange.
Later I found an online tutorial from yourgenome.org by Dr Alan Bateman based on Thoki Yenn's model but incorporating a printed template. I folded my diagonals as mountains instead of valleys, so according to this model,

"To find the universal elements enough; to find the air and the water exhilarating;
to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter. . .to be thrilled by the stars at night; to be elated over a bird's nest or a wildflower in spring - these are some of the rewards of the simple life."

I have tried on occasion to simplify my papercut portraits to the fewest cuts to create the whole image letting the eye fill in the missing areas. I think I have succeeded with this papercut and i hope that you enjoy viewing it.
I am still using a borrowed computer so my uploads and comments are held to a minimum until this problem is rectified. Please bear with me during this very frustrating time for me.
