Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve just causes cognitive dissonance to me. How this enormous sand dune exits on the high Colorado Plateau (over 7500' in the San Luis Valley) at the base western base of the Sangre de Cristo Mountain Range can be explained by geologists, but it simply doesn't resonate with my concept of Colorado's topography.
On a road trip through Colorado, my wife and I stopped here for a brief visit to check out the dunes up close. Since it was late in the day, we did not go sand sledding, but we did climb a remote slope on the eastern side of the dunes, which was far more difficult than one might imagine.
Seeing the gathering storm clouds and having a tight travel timeline, we decided to depart the park well before sunset, with a brief stop along the entrance road, where I photographed this lone tree looking back across the valley past the dunes toward Mount Herard and the rest of the Sangre de Cristo Range. 30 minutes later, the area was awash in rainstorms.
Congrats on Explore!

The perception of age often transcends physical limitations, with many individuals feeling younger internally than their actual age implies. Age encompasses a multitude of dimensions, and the ageing experience differs significantly among individuals. Certain older adults retain a vibrant spirit, remaining actively involved in pursuits they find fulfilling, whereas others encounter diminishing physical or cognitive capacities. Elements like general well-being, social connections, and attitudes towards ageing further influence individuals' unique encounters with the ageing process.

Wavelengths of light exist outside our brains, but colors are subjective mental phenomena that depend on our visual systems.
The easiest way to realize this is to consider how televisions and other displays create the subjective experience of color. They use red, green and blue light (meaning light with the corresponding wavelengths). With these 3 wavelengths, a television can be used to create any color imaginable.
Consider how red light and green light can be combined to create yellow light. This has nothing to do with physics. The two types of light wave do not in any sense "mix", except at the retina.
The retina is not the whole story, however. The neuroscience of color vision is complex, and only partially understood. The famous image of the blue-and-black / white-and-gold dress illustrates this. Some people can voluntarily switch between the two percepts. This implies that the retina is not the only part of the visual system that is involved in color vision. Voluntary control is generally assumed to act at higher levels of the visual hierarchy.

Psychologists often use the technical term framing: The framing effect is a cognitive bias in which people decide between options based on whether the options are presented with positive or negative connotations.
In this photo winter is shown differently than usual, namely in a frame. Is it now also about framing?
The picture was taken on the facade of the German television station ZDF in Mainz.

security rhetoric under the false flag
of an impossible right to security = totalitarianism
rhétorique de sécurité sous le faux drapeau
d'un droit impossible à la sécurité
Health security rhetoric: Le port du masque parasite nos fonctions cognitives à 3 niveaux : l’inconfort physique, l’absence de toutes les expressions qui complètent le verbal et enfin, un rappel constant à la pandémie, au danger, à la maladie, à la crise, aux privations dues à la Covid. C’est dans ce dernier registre que se joue l’affaiblissement de nos fonctions cognitives. Prof. Isabelle Barth(Chercheuse en sciences du Management)

Synesthesia is a non-pathological variation of human perception. Synesthetic people automatically and involuntarily experience the activation of an additional sensory or cognitive pathway in response to specific stimuli. For example, they can see a color when they hear a musical note, or perceive touch on their right cheek when they taste food. These perceptions are idiosyncratic, that is, each person perceives colors/smells/sounds and physical sensations, etc. specific and different.
Auditory-visual synesthesia (also known as chromesthesia): The phenomenon through which the sense of sight and hearing, music and colors are interconnected. Far from each song leading to a mental image of a single color, each musical note is associated with a particular key.
I feel like that...
Synesthesia on people:
This type of synesthesia consists of the involuntary association of one or more colors with familiar people. It can be a perception of color without more, or the colors can have texture, shape, three-dimensionality, spatial location and even rhythm or movement.
