Aetobatus narinari fotografiat a les Illes Caiman
Spotted eagle ray (Aetobatus narinari) - This shot was actually taken by my brother this spring break while diving in the Caymans (I was there too, but he had the camera), but it's going up anyway. Converted to B&W from a color digital in Lightroom, then cropped to fit my screen, but other than that almost entirely untouched. These things are amazing to watch underwater, the way they just glide effortlessly faster than any person could hope to swim.

Adding my contribution to the highly debated “Toilet paper orientation” topic. As you can see, my toilet paper holder — unlike Möbius’s strip wich is not-orientable — is multi-orientable. Thus, according to my guests’ preferences, they can choose whether having the over or under paper orientation and possibly do not act against their religious or philosophical convinctions. The only thing I require is that they leave the toilet clean once they’re done. Hope you won’t mind if, for privacy reasons, I don’t put coords in this picture…

Text Appearing Before Image: ' Text Appearing After Image: IMAGINATION AND THE SEEING HAND The suffering is deep that comes from a sense of Linworthiness for life, of limitation which unfits one to give service to those he loves, and to take his place with others as a normal, useful mem- ber of home and society. This suffering is thrust upon children of sensitive nature who are blind. They need help in such study and play as will give them a broad vision outside themselves and a courage of spirit to fight their way into helpful- ness to others and even full self-support when they are grown. Blind- ness does not mar the power to learn or to at- tain to great knowledge or wisdom; it merely re- quires a different channel through which sensations shall enter the brain. It does not hinder the asso- ciation of ideas or forma- tion of theories as in any child who can see. It does not hinder the ac- tion of the imagination. In fact the blind build up a very real and vivid world — and as we all know, the most beautiful world is that of the imag- ination. There might even be the question whether, other things being equal, one sees bet- ter with the hand or the eye. Surely it is true that the touch of the hand is very real and near, leaving nothing un- certain. This blind child can put together her reading and her various touch impressions and visualize the traveler in Arctic snows quite as well as can the child who has gained her ideas of snow and snowshoes through her eyes 574 Note About Images Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original work.
