Gray is the color of intellect, knowledge, and wisdom. It is perceived as long-lasting, classic, and often as sleek or refined. It is a color that is dignified, conservative, and carries authority. Gray is controlled and inconspicuous and is considered a color of compromise, perhaps because it sits between the extremes of black and white. The human eye can distinguish about 500 shades of gray.
-- Sensational Color
_______________________
Grey. It makes no statement whatever; it evokes neither feelings nor associations: it is really neither visible nor invisible. Its inconspicuousness gives it the capacity to mediate, to make visible, in a positively illusionistic way, like a photograph. It has the capacity that no other colour has, to make 'nothing' visible.
-- Gerhard Richter

"Knowledge"
by Jacob Lee
Sit close
Let me tell you every truth I know
I could read you poetry and prose
We could contemplate the syllables
If you so wish for it
If so
Let your consciousness dissolve like snow
Watch the branches replicate your bones
Place the precious palms among your own
Be the water and the boat, and so I stow
Every thought that lies inside of me
Atop the shelves, amidst my library
So when you're older you may visit me
When I'm at peace
Patiently, I reach up above
I can see the ocean as I stare at the stars
I will place my knowledge in your hands
It's okay if you don't understand just yet
Speak slow
Let me ask before I take a note
May I read a couple words you wrote?
Every page you touch, the letters glow
From the ashes do we grow
And I boast
I can comprehend the words you spoke
You're the writer and the quote, and so I hope
Every thought that lies inside of me
Someday finds its way from soul to speech
So I may bestow our legacy
Like you to me
Patiently, I reach up above
I can read the ocean as I write with the stars
I will place your knowledge in my hands
Flick a page until I understand, I do, oh
Like trying to speak while remaining in silence
Like facing your fears without feeling frightened
I'll never know if I'm yet to try it
I'll do my best to stay open-minded
Patiently, I reach up above
I can see the ocean as I stare at the stars
I will place my knowledge in your hands
Flick a page until I understand, I do, oh
Patiently, I reach up above
I can read the ocean as I write with the stars
I will place your knowledge in my hands
Flick a page until understand, I do, oh
I wish everyone a healthy and peaceful New Year!

Indian Prayer
www.youtube.com/watch?v=-F-gPnyUtKs
Great Spirit, who exists before you are in every person and every thing, we invite you to come from the distant places in our present existence.
Big Spirit of the North, giving wings in the air of water to flow and rain and snow, covering the earth with the crystal carpet over which every sound is beautiful, we stand in front of you.
Fill us with the strength to withstand the snowstorms and help us to thank you for the beauty that springs from the warm earth when it wakes up.
The Great Spirit of the East, the land that rises in the sun, you hold in your right hand the years of our lives and on the left the opportunities of every day.
Prepare us not to reject your gifts, nor to miss the hope of every day and every year.
The Great Spirit of the South, where your warm breath melts the ice around our heart, its aroma speaks from distant springs and summers, dissolved our fears, melted our hatred, burned our love with the flames of truth.
Teach us that whoever is truly powerful is also polite, whoever is wise is also merciful, whoever is brave is also compassionate.
The Great Spirit of the West, the land that the sun is tilting, with the bare mountains and lawns, bless us with the knowledge of peace and freedom. Teach us that the end is more important than the beginning, and that the sun does not reign in vain every day.
The Great Spirit of the Earth, lord of the metals and the stones, guardian of the treasures of the earth, help us to thank you daily for your countless springs that keep us alive and for your untold beauty!
Imagination is more important than knowledge because knowledge is limited whereas imagination encompasses the whole world.
The tree of knowledge, connecting to heaven and the underworld, and the tree of life, connecting all forms of creation,
are both forms of the world tree or cosmic tree,
and are portrayed in various religions and philosophies as the same tree

This tree stands on a bank of the Saddle Brook, its roots tenuously holding on to very eroded soil. You can see the open roots on the bottom of this photo. It is a favorite tree of mine, a symbol of perseverance in the face of peril.
To learn things. Like travelling into an endless tunnel. I say this because you will never learn it all. There will always be more.

A geological hammer, in memory of Mary Anning (1799-1847) from Lyme Regis/Dorset, fossil collector and lay palaeontologist and one of the key figures in the discovery of dinosaurs. She was not an "Anglican gentleman", not part of the establishment, but a dissenter and a woman and as such not allowed to join the Geological Society of London. "The world has used me so unkindly", she wrote. Mitakon Speedmaster manual lens at F 0.95; reflector used; edited in Fujifilm's raw converter and refined in Luminar.

This was just a test shot ahead of my planned evening shoot, but to be honest I prefer this daytime version on account that the colours show up better, especially the middle mustard section and roof cylinder. And the new pool does lend itself for some great reflections.
KNOWLEDGE is the topic for Wed Jan 13 2021 Group Our Daily Challenge.
This guy was clever enough to grab the nuts that park visitors were feeding squirrels with, before a squirrel could spot them, which is a sign of knowledge.
Wikipedia says:
Ravens and crows are among the most intelligent birds. For example, they show in experiments the ability to plan complex actions. When hiding food, they show both great memory skills and the ability to empathize with others. A raven seems to know that a food hiding place is only safe if it is not observed while hiding. In addition, ravens show an amazing learning behavior (making tools, using road traffic to crack nuts and fruits....

It’s important to know who you are. At least until you figure out that who you are has nothing to do with anything you think about that.
- Story of the Day - By Brian Andreas
un'immagine, una storia
Penso che una buona foto possa fornire una “chiave d’accesso” a un determinato argomento o situazione, ci fà chiedere cosa, dove, perchè , risveglia emozioni, pensieri, ricordi di situazioni vissute e vogliamo saperne di più .
Al tempo stesso l'attenta lettura dell'immagine, la sua analisi
estetico/tecnica può facilitare la comprensione e la memorizzazione di concetti ed eventi ....., meglio se mi fermo quà .....
Paolo
an image, a story
I think a good photo can provide an “access key” to a certain topic or situation, it makes us ask what, where, why, it awakens emotions, thoughts, memories of situations experienced and we want to know more.
At the same time, the careful reading of the image, its aesthetic/technical analysis can facilitate the understanding and memorization of concepts and events, ..... better if I stop here .....

A project by Ildefons Cerdà and another by Josep Amargós in 1894 proposed to convert Montjuïc into a residential area. Another idea for the celebration of the exhibition in Montjuïc was proposed in 1909 when Manuel Vega i March suggested that the culminating point of the development should be ‘a great Temple of Art, a summary and compendium of our most prodigious knowledge’. Finally, in 1913, it was decided that Montjuïc would be the definite location for the Exhibition of Electric Industries, promoted by the industry and the city council of Barcelona.
Did you know that the leaves and bulb of a Daffodil contain toxic alkaloid called Lycorine. This substance keeps predators (except certain types of insects) on a safe distance. Due to toxic sap in the stem, daffodil should not be kept in the vase with other plants (it is harmful for them). Facts found at www.softschools.com/facts/plants/daffodil_facts/675/
"Images provide a knowledge that we can interiorize ... can take to that place in ourselves where there is water and where reeds and grasses grow."

Faro di punta Palascia_Otranto.
La fascia sfuocata a centro fotogramma è il nubifragio che poco dopo si è abbattuto sulla costa . Giusto il tempo di correre in auto.
« I pescatori del tratto di mare tra la Torre del Serpe e la Palascìa raccontano che in certe giornate, quando le nuvole in cielo sono gonfie di pioggia e il sole le illumina come fossero vele, sulla superficie dell'acqua si può scorgere un brillio: i riflessi dorati di qualcosa di simile a una tromba »
La Punta Palascìa, comunemente Capo d'Otranto, è il punto più orientale d'Italia.
Punta Palascìa, commonly Capo d'Otranto, is the easternmost point of Italy.
