Balthasar had a great respect for the primacy of Peter, and the hierarchical structure of the Church. But he also knew that the Church is not only that, nor is that what is deepest in the Church.
-Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger
Have you ever seen a Harvestmen moult? I had not and this is the very first sighting for me.
The Harvestmen had gripped the underside of a coconut leaf sheath with 4 limbs while the remaining 4 just dangled in the air pointing upwards.
The Harvestmen had emerged completely and was now in the process of meticulously pulling out all 8 limbs, guided by the chelicerae and pedipalps.
A close up will help to better appreciate the complexity of the process.
Will post soon.
Image seven in this series and marveling at the fine tendrils of branches that weave their way like the synapses in a giant brain!
A entangle of nature, shot as a single exposure and the first of a series of images exploring the mad, seemingly chaotic growths that line the ancient ditches along the iron age fort at Wittenham Clumps.
It might resembles the human towers of the Catalans, but isn't it a way to describe how complicated our human relationships are...?

complexity of human relations in respect to their environment! a visible spectacle for those who experience!
I've always believed that every interesting photo needs at least one primary subject. This is usually the thing that inspired us to take that photo.
Of course there is no limit to the number of interesting "things" that we could include in one photo, but there should always be at least be one obvious one.
If the viewers of our photos can't immediately identify what it is they're supposed to be looking at, then they probably won't spend much time looking at them.
What do we do when everything looks equally interesting (or boring, depending on your outlook on life)? We could either zoom in and focus on the most interesting thing, or we could attempt to include as many interesting things as possible.
Everything in this panorama looks interesting to me, yet nothing stands out as being more interesting than anything else. So I'll completely understand if you don't understand why I took this photo. There is no primary subject here.
There is, however, only one primary emotion here... you either feel it or you don't.

de Young Museum in Golden Gate Park - San Francisco, CA
American Art
The de Young’s American art collection, spanning from the 17th century to the present day, is the most comprehensive survey collection of American art in the American West, and is among the top 10 collections nationally that encompass the entire history of non-indigenous American art. The acquisition of the distinguished Rockefeller Collection, along with later gifts and purchases, transformed the American art collection into a true national treasure, as well as a significant cultural and educational resource for both residents and tourists.
The art on view spans four centuries and includes objects created by Native American cultures, subsequent immigrants, enslaved Africans, and their descendants. Many of these cultures clashed over their differing visions of America’s past, present, and future, while also borrowing and sharing ideas from each other. This historical diversity and complexity has led to the creation of many hybrid art objects that are among the defining features of culture in the United States.
The breadth and depth of the American art collection enables visitors to explore many of the most influential developments in American art and history. These objects reflect both the personal visions of the artists and the collective concerns of their communities. The juxtaposition of old objects with newer ones in the galleries is intended to foster a dialogue between the past and the present, and to remind viewers that cultural ideas can transcend the artwork’s time and place of origin.
As much as I love this ponytail, I'm gonna pass on buying it. I tried the demo and my complexity went from 57,872 to over 1 million.
That's wild. If anyone knows if Revoul is planning on fixing her ponytail and lowering the complexity, I will buy it when it's fixed.
There's literally no point in me paying for a hair I can only take pictures in because I'd crash a sim with it. ♥
Disclaimer: Not bashing, I love their products, I just want to make sure they're aware. ♥
Richard Serra - La Materia del Tiempo (The Matter of Time)
Esta obra en su conjunto permite al espectador percibir la evolución de las formas escultóricas del artista, desde la relativa sencillez de una elipse doble hasta la complejidad de una espiral.

winter solstice of the long shadows and the longest
night. water and blood flow
no longer, frozen. all
hangs in anticipation –
of what? new
life, new
year, new
hope.
for this is the time of the Yule
log and baubles in our Saturnalia
Christmas – oh how we wish
to brighten the world, lessen the
grief, erase fear, breathe new
life into
old…
instead…
a baby seeks sanctuary in the
heart’s cradle

Correggio (Antonio Allegri - Correggio, c. 1489 - Correggio, March 5, 1534) - Adoration of the Magi (1515-18) - Oil on canvas 84 × 108 cm. - Brera Art Gallery, Milan
L’opera giunse a Brera con un’attribuzione a Scarsellino, proveniente dalla collezione del cardinale Cesare Monti lasciata nel 1650 all’Arcivescovado di Milano.
Fu assegnata a Correggio da Bernard Berenson e viene generalmente assegnata alla produzione giovanile dell’artista, tra il 1515 e il 1518: la complessità della composizione e l’artificiosità delle pose avvitate dei personaggi ci dicono dell’interesse di Correggio per la lezione dei cosiddetti proto manieristi emiliani.
La scena principale è a sinistra e il centro del dipinto è vuoto, così che l’occhio dello spettatore è attratto dalla figura di un lanzichenecco seduto sui gradini in fuga prospettica. L’impressione di dinamismo instabile è accentuata dal Re, punto d’arrivo della diagonale composta dai due compagni di viaggio
The work came to Brera with an attribution to Scarsellino, from the collection of Cardinal Cesare Monti left in 1650 to the Archbishopric of Milan.
It was assigned to Correggio by Bernard Berenson and is generally assigned to the youthful production of the artist, between 1515 and 1518: the complexity of the composition and the artificiality of the screwed poses of the characters tell us of Correggio's interest in the lesson of the so-called Emilian proto-Mannerists.
The main scene is on the left and the center of the painting is empty, so that the viewer's eye is drawn to the figure of a lansquenet sitting on the steps in perspective flight. The impression of unstable dynamism is accentuated by the King, the point of arrival of the diagonal made up of the two companions
The 4th image in this little series and more intricacy from the wild and chaotic hawthorns, this time against a backdrop of the deep autumn colours of the beech trees in the distance.
a great flowery friday to you!
i am taking a break now due to two reasons: firstly, i am heading off on
vacation and secondly, the new layout gets on my nerves!
i totally dislike the black background, i miss the complexity of the
former layout and there are some other objects i am really upset about.
i really hope that this "bigger and brighter" thing will be modified into
a more user-friendly thing, otherwise i am not yet sure if i will go on
here.
there are plenty of other fish in the sea. ;)
have a good time!
