I finally figured out this difference after talking to so many different people when the reign of Trump occurred and gauged their reactions. We've all been told there are major issues like abortion, immigration, health care, education...
But, I figured it out...the only real difference between a liberal and a conservative is that a conservative only reacts, votes, and advocates along certain lines when an issue directly effects them...so, the woman that votes for Trump even though her husband and father of her 4 kids is an illegal immigrant and then gets outraged when he's deported...or the many Americans who will get outraged when/if Trump completely defunds Obamacare and they are left with nothing...they don't think on the "we" basis. They think only about the "me."
But a liberal, a liberal cares when anything negatively impacts a member of our community. Because, we see the connection..it's not just about human rights we're talking about here, although plenty of liberals care about that. But, what I'm saying is that liberals understand their place in the world in a more holistic sense. We realize that if a member of the community, whether it is a Black man wrongfully killed by police or a an anti-Muslim ICE raid that leads to a harmful deportation and disruption of family lives, this negatively impacts the quality of life of everyone in the community and we cannot ignore it. A liberal realizes that all humans should be honored based on the identity they choose vs. the one they happen to be born with even if we ourselves are heterosexual because it makes for a more accepting world. A liberal realizes we need to invest in climate change solutions before we're actually under a rising sea level. A liberal realizes putting guns in the hands of people who are mentally ill so easily without any background checks is a detriment to the safety of all.
I realize liberals have gotten a bad name in some circles and media outlets...and, it's not hard to see why...we live in a self centered world where profit is a god and many conservatives all out for themselves are both unhappy and rich. They own so many more major media outlets and they control the message. But, let's be clear, money doesn't buy you happiness...being part of a community does bring happiness and increase your quality of life. And, if more people thought about the community aspect..more about the we and less about the I...the world would be a much better shared safe space for us to live in.
Just ask Denmark, the famous masters of hygge or happiness. They care more about the we. They make sure all people have some basic protections. And, though they seem fond of burning a bunch of candles around wooden furniture, they still have much fewer fatalities.

Leaving me was a celebration to you, but not to me. Yeh, you left me behind & I'm living without you. But it doesn't assure that I'm happy. Actually, you didn't leave me alone, cigarette was the last gift from you. :)
[N.B. I'm smoking for the last 7 years! The perspective is not applicable for me!!!]
Peace does not mean an absence of conflicts; differences will always be there. Peace means solving these differences through peaceful means; through dialogue, education, knowledge; and through humane ways.

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Pantanal, Brazil. Only difference is the male slightly bigger. Can't tell from photo so assume male is preening the female.........as we men do.
original idea is not mine, and I even don't know who's the author. I changed it a bit to make this picture.
The difference a few minutes make (see previous shot) as the sun makes an appearance. Shot 10 minutes from home near Hawksmoor in the Churnet valley.

The difference between Male and Female Goldfinches is very subtle.
If you notice,
On the right the red face of the male goes further back behind the eye
Where on the left the females stops at the eye line.
So this is a breeding pair

If I'd have been shown this photo I would have assumed it was an Orca attacking a Dolphin. But all is not as it seems, as this male Orca is one of the salmon-eating "residents" off Vancouver Island. "Transient" Orcas (aka Bigg's Killer Whales) feed on seals and dolphins but these Pacific White-sided Dolphins were pestering the Orcas to try and steal salmon. Fish-eating Orcas are highly vocal and we dropped a microphone into the water to listen to their "singing", which was amazing. But mammal-eating Orcas are largely silent in stealth mode when they are hunting. The two Orcas look rather similar but the Dolphins clearly know the difference as they would have high-tailed it out of there if these were Bigg's Killer Whales, presumably recognising them by their silence. For interest here is a Bigg's Killer Whale and I wrote about them in more detail under this photo: www.flickr.com/photos/timmelling/53180099539/in/photolist
This photo of a Dolphin and Orca together was taken in the Johnstone Strait off the NE coast of Vancouver Island in Canada a few days ago. And the title "What's Going On" was of course from Marvin Gaye's 1971 single and album (but without a question mark).
The difference between a photograph and a great photograph is timing.
I guess it's the same with a kiss .....
These are the first alpacas in my life, and taught me the difference between them and llamas (llamas are larger and have banana-shaped ears). They live just down the hill from me, but are usually eating hay in the distance when I visit them. They were near the fence today, allowing for some decent shots. I'll have to stop by more often! They're all male and have names, but I only remember the creamy one is called Cappuccino.
A close comparison shot of a black-headed gull (rear) and a Mediterranean gull in winter plumage. The bill of the latter is heavier and it's hood remnants extend closer to the back of the head. However, the most obvious difference is the wings, with obvious black tips for the black-headed gull.

Hey, everyone!
Today we have a very special post featuring one of my best friends Carolina Sautereau. It's been years since our last collab, but we were finally able to get by our 12h timezone difference to have some blogging fun together. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
Don't forget to visit Carol's blog too, so you can see her version of the pictures and credits :)

the difference of lighting
can be remarkable in the appearance of a bird... this one out in the open is very different looking than those seen in the shadows
initially i was disappointed i wasn't able to photograph this particular individual in a more natural setting
but now i more so appreciate this
''After a while you learn the subtle difference
Between holding a hand and chaining a soul,
And you learn that love doesn’t mean leaning
And company doesn’t mean security.
And you begin to learn that kisses aren’t contracts
And presents aren’t promises,
And you begin to accept your defeats
With your head up and your eyes open
With the grace of a woman, not the grief of a child,
And you learn to build all your roads on today
Because tomorrow’s ground is too uncertain for plans
And futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight.
After a while you learn…
That even sunshine burns if you get too much.
So you plant your garden and decorate your own soul,
Instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you really can endure…
That you really are strong
And you really do have worth…
And you learn and learn…
With every good-bye you learn.”
― Jorge Luis Borges
Based on the Traction Avant, the La Licorne was actually rear wheel drive on a separate chassis. So technically it was a world of difference. This one was discovered after many years, and has been converted into a rat look pickup for some reason.

Shuwaikh port - Kuwait
The photograph shows a bit of the indifference in the municipality's supervision on coastal locations in Kuwait. As you can see, the beach is full of rubbish and dirt which has destroyed the natural look of the sand. Making the place somehow unusable. Anyway, it is also related to the people's awareness of this subject. I think multimedia means in the country must pay attention to this problem and raise people's awareness.
Technical Data:
It is not a HDR photograph, the bottom part is exposed by hitting a lot of flashes - which made me blind =D - by me and my friend. The white balance was taken down to 2700 to give this pinkish mood to the photo. Long exposure was used in order to prevent noise from high ISO and to give a special effect to the water.

St Maarten and St Martin - Caribbean - Dutch and French
What is the difference between St Maarten and St Martin?
During the 17th Century there was intermittent rivalry between the Dutch and French for control of the island and its salt mines. In 1648 the two countries signed the Treaty of Concordia which divided the island in two and urged its people to live in a cooperative manner.
Saint Martin (French: Saint-Martin; Dutch: Sint Maarten) is an island in the northeast Caribbean Sea, approximately 300 km (190 mi) east of Puerto Rico. The 87-square-kilometre (34 sq mi) island is divided roughly 60:40 between the French Republic (53 km2, 20 sq mi)[1] and the Kingdom of the Netherlands (34 km2, 13 sq mi),[2] but the two parts are roughly equal in population. The division dates to 1648. The southern Dutch part comprises Sint Maarten and is one of four constituent countries that form the Kingdom of the Netherlands. The northern French part comprises the Collectivity of Saint Martin and is an overseas collectivity of the French Republic. As part of France, the French part of the island is also part of the European Union.

This highlights the differences between the two "full size" buses that Metrobus have for the two Shortlands routes.
There are only 3-colors, 10-digits, and 7-notes in my life now but not too long ago those numbers were each in trillions.
Funny how one person can make all that difference.
The end of Autumn 2022. I must have been walking this same circular route nearly every morning for the past 4 years and its great watching the subtle differences as the seasons progress.

There was a time, there was always a time. A time when she was nothing more than a figure in the crosshairs of some scope, years had passed with this being the case. Something had changed, a point of no return... he wasn't just a thick headed marine anymore following orders, he was here by his own free will.
The University Club building was built in 1931 and was a fraternal organization for men. The building closed in 2008, caught fire in 2013 and was demolished the next day.

Good news about the camera. My insurance will be paying out but they wanted me to pay the difference of £130 between their supplier and what I paid for mine. Then they suggested I could buy it and they would send me a cheque once I had provided proof of purchase, but I can't do that either as totally skint. The last option that I have suggested is that I provide proof of supplier and they send me a cheque. Hopefully they will agree with this but I think it will take a couple more weeks as I need to clear the cheque and then transfer to PayPal as buying off ebay.
I am now pulling out what hair I have...
Doing long exposure and Photoshop tuition around the Edinburgh area if anyone is interested please PM me.
Also will be selling my water damaged Canon 7d. I believe it is the microprocessor that has blown as it functions apart from live view and the image doesn't process but everything else is fine. So if anyone wants to take this on or wants spares please let me know before I put it on ebay.
A Volvo PV544 in Langen. According to Wikipedia, "In 1958, the PV544 was phased in. Subtle differences with the PV444 included the introduction of a curved one-piece windshield to replace the two panes of flat glass, larger taillights, and a ribbon-type speedometer. "

On my return from my fell walk the day before I thought this scene might make an interesting photo. I took the photo and decided to come the next morning. The next morning was very wet but I had a plan so I hurriedly walked through dawn to get to this spot and take the photo. Although quite different its debatable if any make a good photo, The first photo is taken at dusk handheld with my Fujifilm XT5 and the second is taken at dawn on a tripod with my Canon R5.
“The difference between technology and slavery is slaves are fully aware they are not free”

Inquiring about the buildings which look like 'half a building' we were informed, "these were the slave quarters.' While slavery wasn't the first thing we thought about while absorbing NOLAs fine sense of heritage and hospitality, when you become calibrated to it, it is hard not to think of elephants in the room.
