The prophet or seer is a man of strong imaginative powers, which have not been calmed by education. The ideas which occur to his mind often present themselves to his eyes and ears in corresponding sights and sounds…. Prophets have existed in all countries and at all times; but the gift becomes rare in the same proportion as people learn to read and write.

War and Peace
War and Peace, a different perspective. If only people are willing to see the deception of politicians they will understand we are all pions in a business game. Only the dead go free. There are images that are so good that adding words is futile. This is one of them. The image spoke.
Re-evaluate your morals
If this scene does not bother you try imagining it with your pets sitting there. This is a crime to innocent animals. The owner is not a farmer, he’s a brutal sadistic torturer and narcist. I can only imagine that in a 1000 years time this will be illegal. Let’s hope. I don’t see it happening in the near future. Big companies are making too much money without environmental consequence.

I have this self-awareness about the human encroachment over the earth surface. Look at an image of the earth one showing city lights, as in the image below from NASA. Is there any space left? Where to next, the Moon, Mars some distant planet. I don’t think so. Not many politicians and non-scientists realize it, but… Continue reading
Women need sex like fish need bicycles
Women need sex like fish need bicycles. From a man’s perspective, it is what it is. The statement as in the heading is to the dismay for so many men. Albeit not true, but in defence of man’s insecurity over their own sexuality and guilt over their own lust, that is what they think after… Continue reading
Are Leica cameras worth the money
Are Leica cameras worth the money, and is there a difference in image quality? I don’t think any sane person can ever justify the price of a Leica camera. They feed on consumers biggest fear that unless you pay through your teeth for something, you will not be able to take good images. Because of… Continue reading
