The title of this photo is human perverse passion

It is one of my own images. I do photography as a hobby.
The model is Mary.

The posting of this image is a reminder of how incredible the experience is of being a human being.

Sorry Vitalux Discussions that involve drugs and other intoxicating substances, pornography (including nude art) are not allowed.Maybe something a bit more relaxed

cheers

both, it would seem?!?!. . . . isn't it great how a simple picture or poster can reach us, when sometimes an idea gets lost in an entire interview.

Snow is okay until you have no choice but to dig out your car (scrape off the ice so you can see) and drive several miles to get to work ... (or back home afterwards ...).

http://www.lovethesepics.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Double-rainbow-over-Garden-of-the-Gods-in-Colorado-Springs-CO.jpg

Double rainbow over Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs, CO. Did you know there really isn’t an “end” to a rainbow? Maybe that’s why finding a pot of gold is as hard as spotting a tricky leprechaun. If you stood at where I can see the “proverbial” end of the rainbow, then that rainbow would appear to you to be in a different spot. It’s one of nature’s very best optical “illusion” tricks. Experiencing the phenomenon depends upon where you are standing, where the sun is and where the moisture is just right in the air. Rainbows, especially double rainbows, are considered a positive, awe-inspiring sign in most cultures

Awesome

But how about this picture of the Peak District?

And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England's mountains green?
And was the holy Lamb of God
On England's pleasant pasture seen?

norman where is that island?

Its this place here;

Aogashima is a small, tropical volcanic island in the Philippine Sea, under the administration of Tokyo despite being located some 358 kilometers away from the country’s capital. It is the southernmost and the most isolated inhabited island of the Izu archipelago. The island itself is a giant volcanic crater, and within that crater there’s another, smaller volcano. Aogashima is still considered an active Class-C volcano though it last erupted in the 1780′s. When last erupted it killed nearly half of the island’s population and forced the remaining inhabitants to flee. It took just fifty years for the people to return. Today, some 200 brave villagers live on the island.

This looks a lot like our blue tongue lizards, we get them all the time in our back yard, except that ours are more fawn to brown and mottled like this one so that it can walk about in our burnt up ground during the summer. I love them, and we have had many of all different sizes over this last summer - they eat the snails too, for which I bless them. However, chelsea knows every single place shes ever seen one, and even now almost winter, she races to check every one of these spots as soon as she goes out to play, I keep numerous tomato stakes around to keep her away from them, so watch that Henry of yours, all our dogs have decided they have no right to be in the yard.

I 'never' get excited about sport and don't follow any of it - EXCEPT - The Tour de France. It's the only sport that touches the spot for me.

I was a cycling fanatic teenager.

Today is the Gran Depart (stage One ) of the Tour de France.

It's in Yorkshire !.... 'up north' in England.

I was half heartedly planning to get down there to see it for the first time in my life. Instead, I decided to attack my kitchen and give it a good sort out and try to catch some live commentary on the internet. Will I regret it?

It's on BBC radio5 live extra on the internet from now 3pm.

Spotted this photo that made me have a little chuckle:

An unexpected side-effect of the 2010 flooding in parts of Sindh, Pakistan, was that millions of spiders climbed up into the trees to escape the rising flood waters; because of the scale of the flooding and the fact that the water took so long to recede, many trees became cocooned in spiders webs. People in the area had never seen this phenomenon before, but they also reported that there were less mosquitos than they would have expected, given the amount of standing water that was left. Not being bitten by mosquitoes was one small blessing for people that had lost everything in the floods.

I dunno. The picture popped up in my face via a web service I started using a couple of years ago called "Stumbleupon". They show you a bunch of things from various websites and you click "like" or "dislike". From your responses they go away and come back a week later with another selection of stuff to see if you like more of it. You repeat the process each time they email you and eventually they are scouring the web for just exactly what you like ( in theory ). I seem to have rejected all their advances with stupid facebooky things and they are stumped right down to bringing me the latest amazing nature photos.

I'm quite happy with that, and don't want to confuse them into changing anything.

So, the photo has no description, this time, sometimes there is a context.

I can do slightly better than moonlight though. It's probably near one of the poles of planet earth. ;)

WOW!! I would love to hear the stories behind each and everyone of those beautiful people in the photo's. The diversity in our world is untapped and wouldn't it be purposeful to our evolution as a species if our education included having to live for 3 months with a family from another continent/country, each year of our schooling.

Now that would be an education!!

On hearing today that Ian McClagan ( Small Faces - keyboards ) has died, I went looking through my old photos thinking I might have a picture of him of my own. I didn't find one but I came across this one that's 'close'.

It's a pic I took in a country pub in the Welsh border area in the 70s. I'm sure some of you will recognize 2 of the entertainers. Katy Lane and Pattie Boyd were there too, looking like a couple of gypsies.

It's a dirty job, but someone's got to do it. Profiling miners from around the world:

It's probably nowhere except in the artist's mind. I'm pretty sure both places exists though, but not side by side ... ?

Thanks Moonlight - I meant the crazy side with the spiral shaped balconies. I can see a lot of potential for vegetable growing there, all with their own access to the sun :)

Yeah... don't know where it is. Did you see they all have pools or something ?

This one is from the future

This picture from moonlight post 242 is from the favelas,Brazil.
An amazing contrast.But again that is who we are. I am so glad that the picture depicts only a part of who we are and not all.
For that would shorely be a shame.

Wow... it's worst than I thought. It is a real place in Sao Paulo. :( http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=1194447 (post no 9)

Thanks Tonz... you have contributed to my culture. Yes, it is a good thing that it does not define All that we are.
