Understanding the causes
of being and beings
is a task without end
Het doorzien van de
achtergrond van het zijn
en de wezens
is een taak zonder einde

Realize deeply that the present moment is all you ever have.
Make the Now the primary focus of your life.
Eckhart Tolle
In the end there doesn't have to be
anyone who understands you.......
There just has to be someone who
wants to.

Visitors to Stowe Gardens between 19 October and 14 November this year will be able to walk amongst the silhouettes of 200 life-size soldiers in the historic landscape gardens.
This moving statement of commemoration, remembrance and honour offers visitors space to reflect and connect within the natural landscape around Octagon Lake.
The installation is created in partnership with Standing With Giants, a community-based project which works to raise understanding and appreciation of our freedom and to remember and pay tribute to those who gave their lives so we could live ours today.

Week 36-52 -2015 Edition - Multi Exposure.
This weeks Multi Exposure Theme proved to be incredibly difficult as I have very limited understanding of Photoshop. This was not the photo I had planned but just could not get the planned photo.
It did not help either that my Adobe settings again blocked access to Photoshop until I signed up for a 30 day trial, even though It is already part of my monthly subscription
I used the following instructions received from a camera club colleague Jane Friel to merge my two photos. Open both photos in photoshop. select one photo by pressing Ctrl+A to select it, then Ctrl+C to copy it. go to the 2nd open file in photoshop. press Ctrl+V to paste the first photo you've selected onto the 2nd one. This will create a new layer. if you want to see the layer underneath, reduce the 'fill' command (above the layers panel). It's usually at 100%.
Didn't manage following. Use the move tool to move the top layer around to align it where ever you want. When you are happy with the placement, put the fill command back to 100%. Create a mask. Use the brush tool to brush away the detail you don't want - you need to use the black square/white square on the tools panel. When finished, merge your layers.
With heartfelt and genuine thanks for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day, be well, keep your eyes open, appreciate the beauty surrounding you, enjoy creating, stay safe and laugh often! ❤️❤️❤️
By contemplating the created order, and by contemplating and ordering the moral structure of one’s own life, one would be led to the pure theoria of the fountainhead of all existence, ho on, ‘the existing one’, ‘He Who is’, this being the name of God revealed to Moses at the burning bush. Historical revelation in this light becomes God’s method of spelling out truth in the terms of the world: an arrangement of clues which, rightly seen, leads to illumination. However, this is not really comparable to the enlightenment of the gnostic: there is no ‘technology’ here, no suggestion of control over the laws of the Spirit. The end is simply contemplation, the enjoying of God for his sake alone; and Philo shares the biblical repugnance for any suggestion that God can be brought into human control. God can never be contained in human concepts. Moses ascends into a cloud and darkness beyond the scope of intellect, where God offers himself directly to the vision, without the intervention of any form or idea. Here, then, the pilgrimage of the understanding is seen not (as for the gnostic) in terms of acquisition but in terms of stripping away, the stripping of multiple and diffuse kinds of apprehension to the simplicity of a single-hearted vision –in Platonic terms, the return from the Many to the primal One.

Have we completely lost our way? All I see and read is hate, confrontation, war, violence, and total misunderstanding!
Don't we teach our children and grandchildren about love, caring, respect, responsibility, understanding, having the ability to reach mutual, peaceful, and reasonable solutions for everyone? It is time to stop the hate, selfishness, greed, and glee in promoting discord. And the political blame game is making things worse! It is time for the Legislative, Executive, and Judicial branches of government to work together to make this country better, a place for us all to be proud of. Stop the bickering, and avoiding your responsibilities, and start the real work of looking for positive solutions for all.
Love is the only way for us to live and survive!!! And when we all realize this we will be in a much better place. At the rate we are going, we won't be here much longer!
Wake up everyone, we all belong to the human family and we should all be looking out for ALL of us and teaching our children and grandchildren to do so as well.
I am sorry my Flickr friends but I find it incredible that it is almost impossible to read or listen about positive happenings and even if one might believe they are not happening, they are we just have to focus on the positive.
I sincerely hope and pray for change for the better and SOON!
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️ ❤️❤️
Its 2 am I just came home not too long ago I was planning on getting help today on choosing my photos and my first option to ask help from is no longer as of yesterday and the second option which is my ex I didn’t feel comfortable with but had no choice I couldn’t do it on my own I had to build a theme and its very hard. My ex is a very successful photographer and he also teaches photography so he has a good eye . I really like what we did and what he chose and we decided what will go on the walls together with what and everything. It was so good to be busy with that and not think about yesterday for an hour or so…
Ive been very sad today I tried to sleep most of the day through actually. Im not that devastated simply because I am very very strong and its true what I said a while ago about my heart being the most put together organ in my body cause its not even cracked or anything. Why would it be..? I love and am loved its just … ughhhh
I swing between completely understanding him to thinking he's psycho! For loving me so much and letting me go. I think gd is "playing" with me ever since that voice I heard when I was 13 I've been very close to all my higher guidance and I talk to them constantly and I was begging to meet my man already I was missing someone I didn’t even know and I was going crazy I think maybe they said .." ok you want to meet him and see who it is thats fine ! but he's not ready !!" the first time we went out I felt something. We went up to his place after a few drinks at a near bar and the chemistry was amazing … he went to pee or get water I don’t remember I looked out the window and said " its him isn’t it !!" I really cant explain it and maybe im the one that’s psycho! I don’t know… thank gd I have the exhibition to keep me busy right now. my cousin is having a b day tomorrow and I don’t feel like drinking again but going out will be good for me. I guess…
I also think I talked the talk so now I have to walk the walk. I said I was gonna open my heart and be vulnerable without being afraid. I did it… now I have to live it and not close up! That’s the test I think and I'm not closing up not at all its funny but I'm so open ! and I do have so much to give. finally I have so much to give without being drained and emptied like i was in the past.

I'll hide behind a smile and understanding eyes
And I'll tell you things that you already know so you can say:
I really identify with you, so much
And all the time that youre needing me is just the time
That Im bleeding you, dont you get it yet?
I'll come to you like an affliction then Ill leave you like an addiction
You'll never forget me... wou wanna know why?
cause Im a liar, yeah, I'm a liar
I'll tear (rip) your mind up, I'll burn your soul
I'll turn you into me, I'll turn you into me
cause I'm a liar, a liar, a liar, a liar...

San Francisco, early morning, from Sausalito.
This is one of my earlier favorites. I was really starting to get into understanding color combinations and photo compositions, but I was also pushing the boundaries of what this camera - the D200 - is capable of. This one is a panorama from two 9-exposure HDR files, processed in Photomatix, and finalized in Photoshop.
My first attempt at uploading this photo, several years ago on Flickr, was missing the panorama aspect - I hadn’t bothered mixing the two shots, and as a result, the composition was completely off. I was able to salvage the whole thing later by combining it with another photograph from the same shoot. The result is both significantly higher resolution than a single wide-angle exposure would have been, and also less distorted.
I have taken this same basic photograph many times - it is a good scene after all - but I still enjoy exploring the different ways I can capture it.
This HYBYCOZO sculpture is titled Axis Mundi. It is in the Lewis Desert Portal and anchors the keystone of the Desert Discovery Trail.
Axis Mundi 2024.
Stainless Steel, Powder Coat Pigment, LED
Axis Mundi draws inspiration from the crystalline structure of fluorite, which contains shapes similar to honeycomb. This artwork is made up of hexagons and squares that efficiently fill space without gaps. These patterns are remarkably elegant and balanced in their division of three-dimensional space.

LIGHT BLOOM by HYBYCOZO is a limited-time exhibit where nature and light converge. This mesmerizing display invites you to explore the Garden transformed by stunning geometric light installations that illuminate the beauty of the desert landscape in a new way. As the sun sets, LIGHT BLOOM comes to life, casting intricate shadows and vibrant hues across the Garden. Wander the trails and let the enchanting installations transport you to a magical realm where the natural world meets the abstract.
HYBYCOZO is the collaborative studio of artists Serge Beaulieu and Yelena Filipchuk. Based in Los Angeles, their work consists of larger than life geometric sculptures, often with pattern and texture that draw on inspirations from mathematics, science, and natural phenomena. Typically illuminated, the work celebrates the inherent beauty of form and pattern and represents their ongoing journey in exploring the myriad dimensions of geometry. HYBYCOZO is short for the Hyperspace Bypass Construction Zone, a nod to their favorite novel (The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy) and was the title of their first installation in 2014. They continue to create under this name. In the novel earth was being destroyed to make way for a bypass. It lead Serge and Yelena to ask what it means to make art at a time where the earth’s hospitable time in the universe may be limited.

Q: Walk us through your creative process?
A: The focus of our creative process is to explore the intricate interplay between geometry, light, space and to inspire contemplation, wonder and a sense of place among our audiences. Geometry and pattern-making serve as the backbone of our creative expression. It is the framework through which we navigate the complexities of form, proportion and spatial relationships. Patterns, both simple and complex, have a profound impact on our perception and understanding of the world. They possess the ability to evoke a sense of order, balance and aesthetic pleasure. Pattern making and geometry offer us a means of storytelling and communication. These patterns serve as conduits for deeper exploration, provoking introspection and contemplation to uncover the underlying symbols embedded within the human psyche.
Q: What inspired the concept of LIGHT BLOOM?
A: Just as many cactus and desert plants have evolved to produce night-blooming flowers, adapting to their environment and thriving in darkness, our sculptures come alive after sunset, blossoming with light and transforming the night into a glowing landscape of art and geometry.
Desert Botanical Garden has an incredible collection of plants and cacti arranged in a beautiful park setting.
"Think the desert is all dirt and tumbleweeds? Think again. Desert Botanical Garden is home to thousands of species of cactus, trees and flowers from all around the world spread across 55 acres in Phoenix, Arizona."

Singularity is actual if we imagine that each constituent alterity (ABCD) is not a thing in itself, but rather a constituency of under-standings. If we imagine ourselves to be those constituents, we can see that we are nothing but the singularity of understanding, which under-stands itself as things in space and time. If this is the case, then the things we experience physically from day to day in the real world are merely our conditioning of our ownmost singularity - as 'things in space and time'. In this way, quantum entanglement is no longer paradoxical. How this comes about is the detail of my inquiry at stanbonnar.net/

It took him a while to understand her complexities – that some days all was smooth and she operated like a well oiled machine. He learned to compensate for the days when the gears just jammed and he tried to be patient when the wheels locked…
