What is your perception? Is it going up or going down?

The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.

 

― W.B. Yeats

   

" There are things known and there are things unknown, and in between are the doors of perception."

Is this reservoir half empty, or...

 

Ladybower Reservoir summer 2018. I had planned to photograph the sink holes but after such a long dry summer they were standing a metre or so above the water level, I had to be content with some general views...no wind at all also meant an LE wouldn't do too much...ah well...

 

This is one of the flower images I took last night.

Created for and inspired by jOe Vance aka oliver.odd in appreciation for his assistance admining "The Hypothetical Awards and associated groups"

 

jOe besides defying gravity, has been in the really secret service, a galactic explorer extraordinaire, a swashbuckling cape wearing chick magnet and has been known to be a danger to low flying aircraft from time to time.

 

In his spare time jOe profusely creates some of the most amazing eclectic art imaginable.

 

Mirror images abound combined with pointillism, melded geometrized abstractions, animals birds,and other species that Darwin could not have envisaged plus the odd trip to places totally of the map.

 

But wait there's more,but I suggest you take a look at jOe's amazing stream yourself ... word of warning though "you will never see things the same again"

You may think the Red Pin is Larger, Truth is they are the same size...............Perspective has created this illusion.

Created for Mel/Lauraxfire who is doing the hard yards at the moment and to whose connection here on flickr has been my privilege.

Always wonderfully generous with a keen sense of humour,Mel's art which is always inspirational takes you on journeys never envisaged and is just an amazing experience to view ..!

 

This piece is inspired by the following quotation found on Mel's profile page...

 

(When the doors of perception are cleansed, man will see all things as they truly are, infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things through narrow chinks of his cavern...William Blake 1793)

(I have found this music to be conducive to regathering and healing,I hope you find the same)

 

Just adding my thoughts of hope and strength to the many others wishing the same for you Mel.

All the best from down under......!

"There are things known and things unknown, and in between are the doors of perception"--- Aldous Huxley

There is a big difference between whether something is like that or whether you think something is like that. Much in our life is our own perception.

Depth perception is the ability to see the world in three dimensions and to perceive distance. Although this ability may seem simple, depth perception is remarkable when you consider that the images projected on each retina are two-dimensional.

Perception is a trick. Perspective is much more reliable...
