We are all becoming cyborgs.
But we might already be.

("thank you for your visit ")
You can to add to any group. I would appreciate if you could share this.
Recently visited Oldmoor Wood, Nottinghamshire. Oldmoor Wood is a woodland in Nottinghamshire, near the village of Strelley. It covers a total area of 15.11 hectares. It is owned and managed by The Woodland Trust.
I went primarily for the beautiful Bluebells. There is a mix of Native and Spanish Bluebells.
Native Bluebells are protected in the UK under the Wildlife and Countryside Act, 1981.
How to tell the difference.
English Bluebells: Flowers on one side of the stem.
Spanish Bluebells: Flowers all around the stem.

My photo for today is from our excursion to Ft. Ticonderoga, New York. For you history buffs, three countries-three wars-one fort. It stands above Lake Champlaign with a direct trade route to Canada.
Anyway, enough of that. :-) It was reenactment day and as I looked to my left I saw this perfect human still life set up. I snapped a picture with the lens I happened to have on (lensbaby-no surprise). They almost immediately dispersed when they saw me taking their picture.
Le premier qui, ayant enclos un terrain, s'avisa de dire : Ceci est à moi, et trouva des gens assez simples pour le croire, fut le vrai fondateur de la société civile. Que de crimes, de guerres, de meurtres, que de misères et d'horreurs n'eût point épargnés au genre humain celui qui, arrachant les pieux ou comblant le fossé, eût crié à ses semblables : Gardez-vous d'écouter cet imposteur ; vous êtes perdus, si vous oubliez que les fruits sont à tous, et que la terre n'est à personne.

This marina restoration is part of a much larger ecological project being done in an area of Upstate NY that hosts a huge variety of migrating birds. The entire project will help humans and nature by providing more food and habitat for our local and migrating wildlife, while also providing a better marina for the boaters. I am hopeful that this will be a positive change for our wildlife, but honestly, I always worry when mankind attempts to "improve" nature. Time will tell.
"Over 100 acres of coastal wetlands have been eroded from Braddock Bay since the loss of the spits of land that extended partially across the bay mouth in the early 1900s. In addition, extensive emergent wetlands have become dominated by the aggressive cattail species (Typha angustifolia and Typha x glauca). These alterations have substantially reduced the suitability of Braddock Bay habitat for many fish and wildlife
species such as the state endangered black tern (Chlidonias niger) and the northern pike (Esox lucius). The goal of this project is to protect and restore the suitability of Braddock Bay for these and many other fish and wildlife species."

We've only gone and adopted a dog!! This is Harbie - we collected him today from kennels just north of London. He is around 2 years old and has just been brought over from Bosnia. Here is the write up - you'll see why he appealed.
About Harbie
Harbie was found on the streets as a stray and taken by the local dog catchers to a public shelter, where he was later rescued by our partners in Bosnia. He is now residing in a private shelter with volunteers that we know and trust, whilst he waits for his forever family to find him.
Harbie is a beautiful dog with a nature to match. Although we don’t know anything about his background, he is trusting, friendly and good tempered with people. He has a forgiving and loyal nature, and he enjoys being in the company of humans despite whatever trauma he may have suffered in his past. Harbie gets so excited when the volunteers come to meet the dogs and walk them at the weekends as he knows it’s an opportunity for him to be fussed over. He greets everyone with excited licks and a wagging tail, and he also enjoys the company of children. We would suggest he would do well in a home with children aged 5+.
Harbie is friendly with all the other dogs in his shelter and loves being able to play with them. He has no issues when it comes to interacting with anyone, and we’re yet to come across another dog who doesn’t like him. His gentle nature makes him a great mixer in the shelter and he socialises happily with both male and female dogs of all shapes and sizes. We have conducted a cat test, in which he was well behaved and gentle. He could live with confident cat, as long as the adopter is confident nurturing that relationship and aware that it might take time to work.
More photos from our first day coming soon!

Globalism is currently working in two distinct ways. One is an attempt to submerge the world into a singular "global" political-economy. Here the corporations that power the markets have the upper hand, and so it is possible to see international architecture that now looks the same everywhere; famous franchises all over the world where the food and coffee is the same; worldwide media that is essentially controlled by six major corporations. This is the standardised, one-size-fits-all model. And I loathe it.
But there is also a countercurrent at work - often referred to as multiculturalism (though I'd rather lose the "-ism"). This is where local cultures are cherished and encouraged. Real difference is acknowledged and relationships through mutual understanding are key to a peaceful community. There are photographers working in this field in Australia right now. Here is some of their work.
From top left we have Shirin Neshat (born Iran 1957) "I am its secret" 1993 from her series "Women of Allah".
In the middle is Zhang Huan (born China 1965) "1/2 Text" where the body is inscribed.
The wonderfully colourful portrait of young African men is by Leonce Agbodjelou (born Benin 1965).
Underneath those are the evocative portraits of Greek mourners by Georgia Metaxas (born Australia 1974).
On the right we have an interesting presentation with a trigger warning. You can read all about it by enlarging this collage. It tells us a great deal about a society that is more offended by the image of a dead worker, than the fact that a real person was murdered.

"O significado mais amplo da facilidade da fotografia diz respeito a sua capacidade de indentificar, considerar e fundir uma dúzia ou uma centena de idéias visuais no tempo que era necessário a um pintor da escola Barbizon para produzir um único esboço preliminar a óleo.
O importante dessa fecundidade não é produzir mais fotos - o mundo, há muito tempo, dispõe de mais fotografias do que pode usar - mas, sim, mergulhar mais profundamente no enigma sempre sedutor da visão: como conhecer melhor o mundo através do olhar."
