Young people from the North Down Alternatives START programme site took part in a research workshop with Faith Gordon from Queens and Sharon Whittaker from Include Youth exploring media, rights and perceptions.
North Beach, Payette Lake, McCall, Idaho
Since we flew up to Boise and drove to McCall, we didn't have our own kayaks so we rented from Backwoods Adventures right on the shore of the lake, and it was a stellar day to be out on the North Beach canoe trail/Payette River.
I think this might be one of my favorite Polaroids to ever pop out of my SLR 680.
Found this little guy stuck in my fence yesterday morning. He tried to go through, but his shell was just a little too big.
Got me thinking that this happens to us all the time with our perceived self vs our actual self. You see yourself one way, but in reality, to others, you are perceived differently. This little guy thought he was small enough to make it through the fence, but might have been a little too optimistic. =o)
Happy Friday!

Beneath the raging walkway, along the Wyvern, part of Derby City's CBD, a place stricken by the effusion of human life, day on day lies a forgotten vestige.
Its greatness continually subsuming all which surrounds it. It will remain, stone cold, long after we have perished.

This is a positive learning space beacuse few people use it . This makes it a quiet and easy place to concentrat and finish work.
Tonight at a program I attended, the guest speaker used the word perception many times. He went on to give many examples and it made me think about my perception of things. Recently my perception has been way off. I perceive myself one way while other perceive me in a more positive light.
It was only one word P E R C E P T I O N.
But it meant too many different things for each individual.
What is your perception?
Red is a roundish man, alone in his 40s, the day-to-days of life clouding the future as he stops at red lights and tries to feel the textures of moments as they glow and skirt off his skin.
One day, he meets a girl, and this girl is nothing less than a drink of fresh sunshine as it pours in between the blinds past predawn; 7 AM and the morning dark roast is just about ready to slip into its tap shoes and tour along your veins.
And there's a moment, so suffused with color, cavernous, a song coursing in echoes along the edges of your senses, his senses, all senses -- and even hours later, a warmth resurfaces on his sleeve, half rolled up along his forearms, and flashes of her perfume create ideas like Miles Davis did.
Shift, his service dog, wags his tail softly and, right now, it's aflutter before it settles gently on the linoleum.

I reuploaded yesterdays picture but without the texture, and changed today's picture.
Why? Because I'm kinda loving my black and white dark work.

COLOUR: COGNITIVE BRAIN PREDICTION VERSUS VISUAL PERCEPTION/PHOTOGRAPHICAL DOCUMENTATION
The English neuropsychologist Chris Frith tells us that in our brain the “true” colour of a given object (=as reflected when the object is illuminated with white light) to such a degree is predicted by prior experience , that coloured light falling on the object will not disturb our actual perception of that true colour. If a (red) tomato is illuminated with blue light,” it can´t reflect any red light, so does it now look blue? No. We still perceive it as red”, he asserts in his book MAKING UP THE MIND. How the Brain Creates our Mental World. (Blackwell Publishing, Malden, Oxford and Carlton, 2007, p. 132). This assertion is wrong; or better: what it claims is only the case, when the person looking at the tomato is convinced in advance that the brain, not the eye, is telling the truth. Our eyes certainly do not see a tomato as being red in blue light. To them it will appear brown in pale blue light and black in deep blue light. What they see is (almost) identical with the eye-like evidence of photography shown in my little photo experiment here.
