Love Is a Metaphor
99 Metaphors of Love
By Richard Nordquist, About.com Guide
79. A Crocodile
Love is a crocodile in the river of desire.
(Bhartṛhari, Śatakatraya, 5th century)

This image is symbolic of "Where the River Meets the Sea". To me this saying describes the tools needed to search the internet. You begin with a whole load of information (the ocean) and then have the opportunity to branch off in a number of directions (rivers). If you are not careful though, the current will take you to places you don't want to be.

“I think that this photo shows one of the most important issue in nature conservation nowadays. And it is known because of habitat loss that a lot of species are facing big troubles to survive. So, people are trying to create reserves and refugees for animals. But the encroachment due to sprawling of cities highlights the problem of saving either one or another species, because in a restricted area often it is not possible to conserve all the species occurring inside. My photo is a way to underline this compromise.”

Shooting ecology with macro lens is reading a poem written by the Nature. He uses lots of metaphors to inspire us. Which part inspires you the most?

Some metaphors people use in life gain a whole new meaning when one gets into cycling.
Normally, one would perceive a statement like "It's only down hill from here", as a negative prospective about the future.
However, the soul is filled with joy when you hear such statement after climbing a challenging mountain.
She loves me, She loves me not.
Loves me loves me loves me loves me

Thank God I dont do that petal thing or this bulb thing to decide if I'm liked by someone.
Photo as metaphor.
Convergent paths. As a wedding joins families, these paths join centuries. On the left is a limestone path from the 19th-century. On the right is a late 20th-century concrete path.
I happened upon this wedding party as they were having photos taken in the park across the street from First Congregational church in Beloit. I decided it might be fun to take pictures of them having their pictures taken.
With digital cameras never be afraid to take lots and lots of photos! You never know what you're likely to find when reviewing stuff on the PC later.
I've always seen everything around me like a metaphor for adventure. I've been chased by that feeling since I had memories to remember, finding the joy in that state of mind, no matter how well-trod a path I'm taking. I've got nothing against mountain climbing and sailing oceans, but everything everywhere has already been discovered. So I find it again, wide-eyed wonder at what's forgotten, walking wherever I have someplace to myself. You can still be an explorer with humanity all around you. Since I first knew Susy, she woke that up in me, offered a reminder to capture an experience with no waning energy. In the years before her hip surgery, these stairs could've been halfway to Everest. Insurmountable emotion, the same kind of elation at the sill of a staircase like the lip of a cliff. I'm hanging on with all my heart, to the kind of personality that gives any day meaning. I never take gravity for granted.

We have to think about possible methaphors for the Introduction to E-Learning course. This is a list of some of those proposed. After much discussion some have been rejected and they are crossed out.
What’s left of the fourth to last sunset of 2017 glistens off the sides of an elephant-style D9-44CW and ES44DC tandem that take a modest 82-car 33K-28 west towards a darkening horizon as day turns to dusk in Northern New Jersey along Conrail’s Lehigh Line. This would be the final subject I would photograph in the year 2017. A thought provoking metaphor bridging the gap between this year and next, or just a fitting sendoff aimed towards the west?
