Technically, there’s no limit on how many variants a virus can have, and that includes SARS-CoV-2. “There are probably too many variants to count,” says David Cennimo, MD, an infectious disease expert and assistant professor of medicine at Rutgers New Jersey Medical School. That’s why he prefers the term “variant of concern” to help describe strains you should actually worry about.

“A variant is concerning if it seems to behave significantly differently from our usual, established norms clinically, in transmissibility, in severity,” he says.

Slot canyon hiking can be one of the most interesting and challenging activities in red rock canyon country. Over eons of storms, slot canyons were formed by racing water and the tumble of boulders and other debris leaving interesting patterns and colors in the sandstone.

Navigating the large boulders, steep talus slopes, and deep pools requires special gear and skills to maneuver.

The most important skill is possession of a conservative mindset when it comes to when to hike down a slot canyon, and more importantly, when not to hike. Flashfloods can blossom into catastrophic events even when there is little or no precipitation in the immediate vicinity. Far away mountains and plateaus are carved with numerous rivulets, washes, and creeks that funnel rain water into many slot canyons.

My words here come from an experience of having to climb up out of an approaching flashflood and watching many flashfloods from a distance over the years. Stay safe!

For a moment try imagining this as both the colors and patterns of the wings and body of a butterfly; and you will see it’s beauty… I found this abandoned shed in an alley behind The ForeFathers Book Shop in Rebersburg, Pennsylvania

My day at the lake last week had me focusing on straight, one exposure ICMs. Though the abstracts stretch and challenge, I'm still in love with the simple impressionist movements of single exposure ICM.

Brutalism • Reimagined

Brutalist architecture is one of the most controversial styles of architecture to exist. It’s what people imagine when they think about what a prison looks like, with its cold and imposing exterior. Brutalism is also what people typically picture when they think of government buildings or schools built in the 1950s-1960s.

Brutalist style is known for its heavy, imposing appearance. If there’s one word that can sum up the entirety of brutalism, it’s the word “concrete.” The style came as a response to the sleek and polished Moderne style popular during the early 20th century.

Suprematism is an early twentieth-century art movement focused on the fundamentals of geometry (circles, squares, rectangles, triangles). The term refers to a form of abstract art based upon "the supremacy of pure artistic expression" rather than on a visual or literal depiction of objects. It is entirely subjective and gives room to the artist to present what they think or perceive versus what they may see.
