~6 month old baby girl hamadryas baboon (Papio hamadryas) named "Christina" having a conversation with her dad, "Elvis"

The Rolex Learning Centre ("EPFL Learning Centre") is the campus hub and library for the École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), in Lausanne, Switzerland. Designed by the winners of 2010 Pritzker Prize, Japanese-duo SANAA, it opened on 22 February 2010.
Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa, partners of the Tokyo-based design firm SANAA, were selected as the lead architects in EPFL's international competition of December 2004. The team was selected among famous architects and even some Pritzker Prize Laureates such as Zaha Hadid, Rem Koolhaas, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Jean Nouvel, Herzog & de Meuron, Ábalos & Herreros and Xaveer De Geyter.
The construction took place between 2007 and 2009. It cost 110 million Swiss francs and was funded by the Swiss government as well as by private sponsors (Rolex, Logitech, Bouygues Construction, Crédit Suisse, Nestlé, Novartis and SICPA).
The building opened on 22 February 2010 and was inaugurated on 27 May 2010. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolex_Learning_Center

Well I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
And the town lit up, the world got still
I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Well the good old days may not return
And the rocks might melt and the sea may burn
I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Well some say life will beat you down
Break your heart, steal your crown
So I've started out, for God knows where
I guess I'll know when I get there
I'm learning to fly, around the clouds
But what goes up must come down
I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Tom Petty October 20, 1950 – October 2, 2017
[Ed. Note: This image, "The Learning Pyramid," is NOT based on any verifiable research; perhaps, no research at all (see this and that). This pyramid is widely cited yet it is, as Christopher Harris shared in an email, a hoax. You can learn even more about the origins of the Learning Pyramid hoax here. Nonetheless, I stand by the idea that the marriage of teaching and content creation is a powerful pedagogical practice (see this).]
(Fictitious) research from the National Training Laboratories in Bethel Maine summarizes the impact different teaching strategies have on learning retention rates.
Anyone who has ever had to teach anything will tell you that teaching others leads to the deepest learning and greatest likelihood that the content being taught will be retained by the "teacher."
This fledgling bluejay today was being shown around by his parents. Among other things, they introduced him to the peanuts we put out for them and, as it happened, to my presence on the deck taking pictures.

This castle has it’s rumours. There are the stories about the man in the jeep and his accomplice on the scooter watching over this castle.
The castle was built in 1860 by an marquis who lived in the town and it still is in Royal’s hands. Apparently, the owners cannot agree about a plan to preserve the heritage and therefore the place is left abandoned without having anybody to care for it.
The impromptu 2 day tour with camerashy and host to France and Belgium, with some new places, a lot of travel with minimal sleep and some goals being accomplished by getting to a certain school.

I now have my own umbrella's, stands and I bought an extra flash. We have a woman in the meet up group who has a studio and is a wonderful teacher. First I had to figure out how to use the flash I bought, I could turn it on myself, and then set everything up. She would say, what effect do you want? Where do you want your lights. Then we would talk through some of the shots, if they were doing what I wanted them to do.
Flash is a bit daunting but not as bad as I thought. And starting this way, not as expensive as I was afraid it would be.
I'm using two lights with white umbrellas.

I'm learnin' to fly,
But I ain't got wings.
Comin' down
Is the hardest thing.
Well the good ol' days
May not return.
And the rocks might melt,
And the sea may burn.

Woodie, transitioning from bottle feeding to hand feeding.

Meet Woodstock! ♥
Woodstock (Woodie) is a pigeon found by a friend of mine when he was 10 days old, no feathers, no mommy, alone.
My friend called me asking if I could shelter and care for him, and I've accepted the adorable challenge, since the timing was perfect, as I had plenty free time back then!
As I kept finding out what to feed him, and feeding him, caring for him, I thought that as soon as he'd able to fly, that he'd fly away and become a normal pigeon... But I was wrong, so wrong.
Instead, he decided to adopt our family and stay close. Our friendship grew every day!
I get to have breakfast with him on the balcony every day, and play with him along the day, and he gets his food bowl always filled, his nice and cute little house we built for him - as it was a cold winter, and much love and care.
It has been a lovely adventure! ♥

"A soul in tension -- that's learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try"
Le mois d'octobre est arrivé. J'pense bien que c'est le temps de mettre de nouvelles photos.
En septembre 2009, j'ai donné sur ma page Facebook une séance photo à un des membres. C'est Valérie qui fut la gagnante. Après discussion sur un moment où nous serions tous les deux disponibles, nous avons procédé au shooting presque 11 mois plus tard. Voici une de mes préférées de la journée.

October is here. I guess it's time for some new pictures!
In september 2009, I gave on my Facebook page a shooting session to one of the members. Valérie won. After discussing a moment when we would both have time , we proceeded with the shooting 11 months later. Here is one of my favorite from that day.
I had wolfed down my supper, grabbed one DSLR and one lens to go along with it, and soaked up the still-warm, still-summer evening. The sky was overcast, trapping a layer of humidity on the ground like a suffocating blanket. Still better than freezing to death in the winter, I suppose.
