Before starting my Passage of time project, to get inspiration I looked at several different photographers and several types of photography. This is a response to painting with light photography.
How are they selling? What are the major differences?
In September 2014, iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, the latest versions of the iPhone, were released. This led to a dramatic drop in the prices of the iPhone 5, which was released a year earlier. It also led Apple to scramble a bit to catch up...

I've seen people debate the difference between Black Lives Matter, All Lives Matter, Blue (Police) Lives Matter, etc., so it's interesting to see someone get specific about a subcategory of black lives here.
Seen at the Black Lives Matter protest at Payrow Plaza in Bethlehem, PA, on June 4th, 2020. (facebook.com/LVStandsUp/photos/a.131399981664923/17623686...)
It was the first organised protest I had been to and it was a much bigger crowd than I was expecting. There wa very little protection from the sun and it was 30.5ºC (87ºF).
I was standing at the back of the crowd so I had the ability to move around with all my camera gear. Hence, it was difficult to hear what each speaker was saying because there were only some small speakers setup at the front of the speaking platform. This is something future protests should be mindful of; if you have a message to share, make sure it can be heard (through the A/V system). From what I could hear, the messages were similar to what has been expressed on social media. Something I had not heard said prior to this protest was: If you have privilege, use it. I think many of us do have privileges and I will do my best to use mine to lift those in oppression. Photography and video are one way I know how to do that.
Most people were wearing masks due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. In general, that makes me frustrated because I don't recognise anybody and not seeing someone's mouth (or someone seeing mine) inhibits the emotion they're expressing. I can be smiling ear-to-ear with sunglasses on and the person I'm looking at has a seemingly stern and dismissive appearance on their face. I can't wait for the masks to be done with.

Hi,

London - 9th July 2013
Birmingham - 16th July 2013
Doncaster - 13th September 2013
Bath - 21st September 2013

Thinking Outside The Box - Or Clinging to the Lid
The Power of Psychological Artistry
Standing Out from the Crowd - Creating Your Difference
Being Different - No, Really Different
What You Get On The Workshops?
What Do People Say About The Workshops?
Register Your Place
For more information on the day, please see www.mindsways.com/SMS/ and for a brochure of what the day is about, please look at www.mindsways.com/SMS/.
Over the past 18 Months I have been running these Sleight of Mind Set Workshops throughout the country, and I am really pleased with the feedback, it has been tremendous, please don't just take my word for it, (I am after all biased) please see what people have said by going to www.mindsways.com/what-people-say/
For over twenty five years I have seen how magic can add value to delivery. There are a lot of unknown techniques out there, many of them psychological, that engages and attracts people. The Sleight of Mind Set workshop is all about how you can tap into this rich stream of ideas and "Mind Magic's" enduring popularity. The day looks at two paths running together, one learning the tricks and effects, the other why and how they add value to us.
They start at 10:00 a.m. and finish at 4:30 p.m. For more information about the workshops, please got to www.mindsways.com/SMS/
THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX - OR CLINGING TO THE LID
Many people claim that the answers to creativity, standing out from the crowd and finding solutions to problems is thinking outside the box. Although, I see many people who cling ferociously on to the lid. Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic, as well as the tools and techniques contained within them are definitely off the lid. For more, see the Sleight Of Mind Set page at www.mindsways.com/SMS/Explaining what you can achieve with these tools is wonderful. For me, I find it deeply rewarding when I see and the results that have been created using these tools and techniques. Don't just take my word for it, see What People Say About Us at www.mindsways.com/what-people-say/.
The Sleight Of Mind Set day is not just about learning the Mind Magic tricks, (these are quick to learn, but create much to be thought about) what makes it thrilling is what you can build with them for yourself. You can build pieces into your delivery, making this very personal to you. You can take these pieces and use them to ignite a powerful response in others, engaging and involving them in your ideas and what you do. Our focus is around Showing Not Telling which is about illuminating and animating your ideas and concepts. This contributes greatly to leaving people delighted, energized, interested and wanting more.
To find out more about Mind Magic and its uses, please go to www.mindsways.com/SMS/
THE POWER OF PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY
The approach we take is what we call Psychological Artistry and this involves using a blend of psychology, mind magic (or mentalism), personal development and smart thinking ideas. By tapping into people's imagination, curiosity and desire for mystery we can engage people in all different areas. By adding in psychological approaches, this is strengthened. I appreciate that by its very nature, it is not a traditional approach but that is where its power lies.
Psychological Artistry is about blending the world of art and psychology. It's about showing the beautiful flaws in our thinking and how we can use them. It's about magnifying how we all think and giving you the opportunity to change it.
A couple of interesting examples the McGurk effect and Prof Richard Wiseman's "The Incredible Colour Changing Card Effect". Please see www.mindsways.com/SMS for these and other incredible videos. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of psychological artistry.
STANDING OUT FROM THE CROWD - CREATING YOUR DIFFERENCE
This learning works on a number of levels. On the workshops, we look at what Mind Magic reveals about how we think, act and behave. This allows us to understand the environment we're in.
Whilst doing this, we're also tapping into the fact that performing and illustrating illusions holds a deep fascination for people. This is what allows us to stand out from the crowd. Below are a few quotes of what people have said about the workshop:
"A truly inspiring experience is how I'd best describe the Sleight of Mind Set workshop."
"I came away with lots of ideas to create drama and interest in my training delivery."
"The whole group laughed many times and were absolutely fascinated by each technique."
BEING DIFFERENT - NO, REALLY DIFFERENT
This programme is good for anyone looking for something different and to stimulate new styles of thinking. The feedback has definitely been that it has satisfied the thirst for new ideas whilst ticking all of the edutrainment boxes. This programme is for you if you are interested in any of the following:
Human Behaviour & Psychology
Influence & Persuasion
How We Think
Magic & Magicians
New Experiences
Learning & Teaching
Framing Your Ideas
The day is all about
Exploring the art of possibility
Stimulating creativity and innovation
Transforming personal and professional life
Tapping into your imagination
On the personal development level, it is about transforming
Self esteem
Self confidence
Self awareness
Self motivation
for yourself and others. Overall it acts a catalyst for your future development.
It is intended for people who are curious, want to improve how they connect, express and communicate with others. Overall, it is about adding new skills to you and being able to apply the techniques and ideas from Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic to maximise what you do.
MindSways sessions are based on a unique blend of magic, science, psychological artistry, design and smart thinking. All of this allows you to work with individuals, groups and organisations in an original and dynamic way. It also means that by being trained in these psychological subtleties and powerful techniques, you can add a unique twist to your activities.
Our success in life depends critically on two things; our capacity for insight into our own mental world and that of other people. One of the benefits of learning and applying Mind Magic and psychological artistry is that it puts our thinking habits and styles back on our radar. This is only one aspect of the many benefits that people find when they have worked with us over the past few months. For what others have said please take a look at www.mindsways.com/what-people-say/

Size of bee makes a difference, even in terms of what bees get studied. Large bees attract even the non-biologists attention and thus Carpenter Bees and Bumblebees are well known around the world. Small bees, that don’t bother or sting us can remain unstudied despite their abundance. Our eyes can’t resolve the differences in bees as small as these 2-5mm Old World Minibees, thus their identification become microscrope work for the specialist, and because many of their populations are in remote areas there is much to learn about what can locally be a very common bee. Small bees can effectively use (and therefore pollinate) small flowers and it doesn’t take that much pollen to raise a Minibee’s young. Thus across the world, the density of small bees often greatly exceeds that of that large bees we more often study. Certainly there are more species in this group to discover for the dedicated bee taxonomist.
So small is the unidentified Kyrgyzstani specimen seen here that it had to be glued to the side of an insect pin that is normally placed through the body of a bee to hold it in place. The lovely wing patterns seen here are called “Wing Interference Patterns” and created by the varying thicknesses of this insects thin wing membranes.

Further in Summer than the Birds
Pathetic from the Grass
A minor Nation celebrates
Its unobtrusive Mass.
No Ordinance be seen
So gradual the Grace
A pensive Custom it becomes
Enlarging Loneliness.
Antiquest felt at Noon
When August burning low
Arise this spectral Canticle
Repose to typify
Remit as yet no Grace
No Furrow on the Glow
Yet a Druidic Difference
Enhances Nature now

Though the picture looks cheesy for a typography, this actually was the least cheesy wordings I could come up with. The font is not too professional and really simple, makes the photo feel like one from Lifetouch photography. I digress, the photos mood was supposed to be simply happy and I think Ryan's smile nailed that. Answering this weeks question is it just adds an extra layer of emotion.
