Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

The mind loves the unknown. It loves images whose meaning is unknown, since the meaning of the mind itself is unknown.
Rene Magritte
"What you do not know is the only thing you know." -T.S. Eliot
Art evokes the mystery without which the world would not exist.

Cuiaba River
The Pantanal

While on the Cuiaba River at night, I stayed on the floating hotel called the Balsa Hotel Transpantanal. The hotel was anchored along the water’s edge next to the shore, so close you could reach out and touch the plants growing there. My cabin was located towards the side facing the shore, and I saw these butterflies resting on some leaves and thought it would be great to take some pictures. I photographed several of these unknown butterflies, and since I have been back I have been searching for the name of these on the internet to no avail, leaving me with another unknown animal.
Ger Bosma sent me an URL to a website showng this butterfly.
I do have another image closer to the one described. You can find the website information here.

This butterfly had been thru some hard times and a lot of the color had worn off of the wings.
into the unknown... my eyes were fixed on the huge crack on the ceiling of an expansive abandoned limestone mine, as i looked deep within myself to find the courage to explore the unknown...
A nice little reminder of how beautiful Spring can be. Sometimes I forget in these months... (this looks much better large, if you have the time)
At the Kuopio rail yard, different units prepare for different jobs, and one of them is an intercity train to Oulu. The Vectron responsible for the job has frozen so badly that its number is not recognisable, but ignoring that the unknown representor is ready to work.

"unknown person through a blurred vision... sometimes you have a dream of a person but can't tell who it was, you can only tell certain features about the person.. and even then, they may seem blurred or indescribable" is what i was thinking when i did this.

“No matter where i go, i still end up me. What's missing never changes. The scenery may change, but i'm still the same incomplete person. The same missing elements torture me with a hunger that i can never satisfy. I think that lack itself is as close as i'll come to defining myself.”
― Haruki Murakami
“This is awful. I don’t know what’s going to happen to me or to anyone else in the world.”
- Raymond Carver; Where I’m Calling From
One of my favorite poems is from Robert Frost called “The Road Not Taken” – the poem has always been an inspiration for me and I tend to bring it out when I come to those really tough times that I need to make decisions that will fully affect my life. It’s also helped me in discovery of other things – such as my faith in religion (which is hard pressed) and when times for people who are going through rough patches to look forward and face the challenges that have been laid before them (while I walk behind and encourage.)
