just a few minutes before sunrise looking from the Benalla-Monash Bridge towards the Learning Centre/Library.
Mountain Goat kid and its buddy, a yearling, on the edge of their world atop Mount Evans, Colorado. The yearling seemed like a good buddy to all the kids in this group, playing with them and watching them while the nanny goats foraged.

Ex-First Great Western (FGW) Class 47 #47811 heads for the South Devon Sea Wall as she passes through Teignmouth working a Freightliner driver training/route leaner from Plymouth to Taunton on a hot and sunny morning, but not for much longer; of Wednesday the 5th of September 2007.
that not-at-all-good feeling when you discover an error that requires taking the needles out and unraveling half of your work so far. but such is learningā¦
āIām sure the man is becoming slower and more uncertain with every occasion he has to use that picture taking thingy with three legs.ā Said Posh Bear smiling as he watched the picture taker set up.
āYes, Posh, it will be a relief when I donāt do this ever again.ā Said Sky.
āAre you going to refuse then, Sky, when he does this next time?ā Asked Barnaby in awe.
āNo, Barnaby, but I probably wonāt be here. I have been talking to Ellie and she was telling me that I should get myself āedicatedā. So, that is what I might just do.ā
āI think you mean educated, Sky.ā Said Posh Bear.
āThat as well, I think. I want to be so clever that I can talk to the buzzy things.ā
āAnyone can talk to the buzzy things, Sky, it is just a shame they donāt seem to understand what bears say.ā Added Bertie, yawning at the thought of all that learning.
āHow do you think you are going to do that, Sky? I mean, learn things like talking to buzzy things.ā Asked Barnaby.
āIt is very easy actually, Barnaby, you just need to know where to go and what sort of things you want to learn.ā
āInteresting, so, where do you go, Sky?ā
āEllie says it is a big place lots of walks away and is called a universal, I think, and there you can get all the leans that you want.ā
āWowsers, Sky, that sounds very good. So, you only need to ask them for learns on buzzy things and they give them to you and you come back edicated?ā said Barnaby.
āNot quite, Barnaby, but very close. Ellie was saying that this place has lots and lots of learns, so whatever you wanted to learn you just press one of those buttons the man has on his picture viewing thingy and all the learns you want come tumbling down before you. I think.ā
āWowsers and double Wowsers, Sky, that sounds amazing.ā Said Bertie getting excited.
āDoesnāt it just.ā Replied Posh Bear smiling.
āWhat do you do with all these learns once you have them, Sky? I mean you canāt just carry them around with you in a bag and if you did, well, how you would find the one you need when you wanted it?ā Asked Barnaby scratching his head with his paw. āAnd, how would you know what you needed if you didnāt know what the learn was about in the first place?ā
āSimple, Barnaby, when I get the learns about buzzy things, Iāll also look for a button thingy that shows one how to store them and find them again. These places donāt just have learns about buzzy things; you know?ā
āYouāre so clever, Sky, I wish I was clever like you.ā Said Barnaby full of admiration of his best friend.
āThank you, Barnaby, and soon Iāll be even more cleverer and then ever cleverer still on top of that.ā
āSky, it doesnāt quite work out like that. I think that Ellie got it slightly wrong.ā Said Posh Bear softly.
āWhat do you mean, Posh? Ellie said she knew.ā Replied Sky looking slightly worried.
āThe places are called Universities and are for hoomans, not us bears. Also, hoomans are taught what they wish to know by other hoomans called professors who in turn were taught all they know many sleeps before. It isnāt instant, these things take lots and lots of sleeps and is often a total waste of time, because after all that learning the hooman doesnāt put it to use.ā
āSo, how do us bears get learns, so we can be clever?ā Asked Barnaby.
āWe use life to learn things, Barnaby, like Sky just now for he has learned a big lesson in who to learn from. Elephants are very clever at elephant things but they donāt understand bear things. If you want to know bear things then you should always ask an older bear.ā
Sky looked sad as he thought about what Posh had said but then he quickly brightened up.
āPosh, as an old bear, can you teach me how to speak with the buzzy things please?ā
āNo Sky, but I can tell you this, watch the buzzy things and learn what they do and then weāll all be the wiser for what you learn. In the meantime, everyone should try and smile and then we can share that big jar of honey that I have put by, for after the man is finished.ā
āThink honey.ā Whispered Sky to Bertie and Barnaby and they both forced a smile.

Happy Blue Monday, y'all! :)

Okay I know it's not as puuurdy but I was only on the plane for an hour! I couldn't have expected a sunset in broad daylight. :P
Edit: 16K views now! Thanks everyone! Hugs! :)
I've had this lens that I cannot stand to use and it's been buried in my camera bag for over two years now. I have been making myself use it because I can use a lower ISO when I use it and I like that. However it's a prime lens and I can't zoom like I'm used to and I hate that part. I took this one tonight and I'm ok with it.

Follow up visit to this neighbourhood after noticing this small roof nesting "colony" in 2018
A somewhat rushed look-around noted at least 4 active nest sites with 2 nestings confirmed to have young
I'm going insane here!
If anyone knows of a good tutorial on shadows on wall etc please don't hesitate :)))
UK designer Thomas Heatherwick masterpiece at Nanyang Technology University in Singapore.
Resembling a cluster of elongated bee hives, the Learning Hub at Nanyang Technology University explores new ways of teaching at a time when computers and the internet are challenging the rationale of learning institutions.
The hubās form is dictated by its function, and brings together 55 tutorial rooms into a structure without conventional corridors, which have traditionally created social separation and isolation. The learning hub has no one door, it is porous. Students can enter from 360 degrees around into a large central space which links all the separate towers together. Each tower is made up of a stack of classrooms which build up gradually, with gardens on selected floors.*

Taken with a tilt shift camera to control the vertical distortion, 3 images were stitched together. The 2 students at the bottom of the image forms a focal point in an otherwise empty space.
When I found my first green tiger beetles (Cicindela campestris) I was astonished to see how fast they were running , but pretty soon I managed to at least get some decent photos of them even though I was nowhere near 1:1 magnification.
Practice makes perfect though so eventually I figured out how to get close so this is a shot taken using the Canon MP-E65mm lens set to 2.2:1 magnification which I would have considered ridiculously close at the beginning.
Come ariete immaginario
apro un varco nelle mura.
Abbandono la cittĆ ;
me ne vado alla ventura.
Cerco isole deserte
dove covano i gabbiani,
lĆ per ore starĆ² inerte
senza l'ansia del domani......

Still Learning

We went on a trip to James Island in The Gambia and stopped at the village of Juffureh which is the village where Kunta Kinte lived before being captured and taken into slavery. This little girl was one of many beautiful children that lived in the village. The trip was a very moving experience.
For MacroMondays theme "Heritage"
Both my parents work with education, my mother is a teacher and my father is a professor at the university, so even though I didn't choose their profession, I've inherited their curiosity about new things.
Didn't know how to make an image about learning, so this pen (and the decoration, which is on the other end of the pen) gets to represent learning. I think making notes or writing essays is part of studying.
Happy MM!
A visit to the Library of Congress and all its wonders. You can take the kid out of the library but you cannot take the knowledge learned out of the kid.
