Imagination is more important than knowledge because knowledge is limited whereas imagination encompasses the whole world.
Knowledge should mean a full grasp of knowledge:
Knowledge means to know yourself, heart and soul.
If you have failed to understand yourself,
Then all of your reading has missed its call.
What is the purpose of reading those books?
So that Man can know the All-Powerful.
If you have read, but failed to understand,
Then your efforts are just a barren toil.
Don’t boast of reading, mastering science
Or of all your prayers and obeisance.
If you don’t identify Man as God,
All your learning is of no use at all.
The true meaning of the four holy books
Is found in the alphabet’s first letter.
You talk about that first letter, preacher;
What is the meaning of that-could you tell?
Yunus Emre says to you, pharisee,
Make the holy pilgrimage if need be
A hundred times-but if you ask me,
The visit to a heart is best of all.
Yûnus Emre (1238–1320)

My sun bursted like a star this evening
I had a blast on my hike today
Up to the top where my lake is and there she was waiting for me
All shining
And bursting
Not always easy to get the burst correct
Sometimes it spreads too much and gets all these colours
But this was the best
I was of course thrilled in all my joy of getting a tiny bit more knowledge about this lovely photo-hobby of mine

It is a real problem, is it not? How can we come to an understanding of this utterly diverse and complicated world whilst sitting in the particularity of our home? It is true that the media, from newspapers to TV and social media, offer us a daily digest of selected information. We would, I sincerely hope, critically examine these news and think for ourselves. However, even so, we would have to deal with the selective nature of the information. We never see "the whole picture". Our knowledge, even at the best of times, is necessarily fragmentary. It is absolutely important to be aware of this limitation - it is one of the virtues that make us human.
I am saying this because AI is on the march. AI has never ever left its ivory tower, it never "left home". It never made any experiences. AI has not seen anything. It does not know how to suffer. What it does is to harvest and (often illegally) exploit printed or published materials, information it has neither created nor even collected. It does not know what it does not know. And yet AI will come up with explanations and scenarios that are untroubled by any kind of self-doubt. AI does not know when it is peddling false information. AI will interpret the world whilst staying at its "home" and will not even be aware of it. Leica M8 plus Voigtlaender 35/1.4 at approx. F8.
This image was taken at the Taiwan's Cheng long Elementary School pond in 2013. I've recently taken an online course from Piet Van den Enyde entitled Ultimate Lightroom Masking. The knowledge from this course has allowed me to use a combination of masks to rework this image.
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.
Harrow school library. The Vaughan Library is over 150 years old and was designed in Victorian Gothic style by George Gilbert Scott, who also conceived St Pancras Station in London. Refurbished and enlarged 23 years ago, it is staffed today by qualified librarians and open daily for boys to study, browse and enjoy a quiet space.
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.

Real knowledge, or what is better called wisdom, is not a triumph over mystery but a rapport with the mystery—and with the meaning for which it stands.

Dante had become a not unfamiliar figure in Verona. Boccaccio tells of several Veronese ladies who saw him walking by one day. They were struck and a little frightened by his appearance, his face fixed in gloom and smudged as though by soot, his beard bristling as though tinged with fire. He seemed, they thought, a character emerging from his own Inferno.
-R. W. B. Lewis, Dante; A Life
...just a real photography...

Da noi si dice che potrebbe essere un business .... .
L'"esportazione della nebbia" è un modo di dire ironico e un'espressione goliardica nata per descrivere l'abbondanza di questo fenomeno atmosferico nella bassa pianura padanoveneta.
La frase viene talvolta usata per prendere in giro o sottolineare, con autoironia, la peculiarità del clima locale che spesso avvolge la regione in "un vero muro di nebbia"
Per me, la nebbia è un elemento che caratterizza il paesaggio, le leggende e l'immaginario collettivo della zona, spesso associata a storie misteriose o d'atmosfera.

Here, people say it could be a business.
"Fog export" is an ironic expression and a lighthearted phrase created to describe the abundance of this atmospheric phenomenon in the lower Po Valley.
The phrase is sometimes used to mock or self-deprecatingly emphasize the peculiarity of the local climate, which often envelops the region in "a veritable wall of fog."
For me, fog is an element that characterizes the landscape, legends, and collective imagination of the area, often associated with mysterious or atmospheric stories.

Knowledge is like a garden, it needs to be constantly organized, weeds must be removed, and plants must be pruned to have space to grow new plants, so the key to learning is not accumulation, but rehabilitation.
Tutta la storia del Carnevale dipende dalla Pasqua, festa mobile che cambia data ogni anno. Giovedì grasso e il successivo martedì sempre grasso variano la loro data in base a quando arriverà la Pasqua e soprattutto ai quaranta giorni precedenti, domeniche escluse, che segnano l'inizio della quaresima, periodo di penitenza, con il mercoledì delle ceneri. Di conseguenza il carnevale finisce il giorno prima, martedì, grasso, che viene dopo l’altra giornata festiva, il giovedì grasso.
the entire history of Carnival depends on Easter, a moveable feast that changes date every year. Fat Thursday and the following Fat Tuesday change their date based on when Easter will arrive and especially on the preceding forty days, excluding Sundays, which mark the beginning of Lent, a period of penance, with Ash Wednesday. Consequently, Carnival ends the day before, Fat Tuesday, which comes after the other holiday, Fat Thursday.

Law and Knowledge is one of two sculptures by Charles J. Mulligan at the front entrance to the Illinois Supreme Court. Both sculptures were placed in 1909, the year following the dedication of the building.
Description (courtesy of Illinois Supreme Court website:)
Figure of Law seated and Knowledge standing behind her. Law is looking off to her proper right and holds a scroll draped across her lap. Behind, Knowledge rests her book propped up on the back of the chair. To her proper right is a tall stack of books and a owl sitting on top of a smaller stack of books.
I took this image 18 months ago, with an ISO of 8,000
When I took it my Photo Shop skill was basic and no knowledge of noise reduction.
I have since re-edited and this is the result.
