Protégé : The Path to a Higher Level

The 2nd photo has me in my feelings. Thanks @TravellerG

So, which Local Guide did this Photo remind you of?

The first photo is very nice, but I can’t take time to appreciate it because of my eyes, I am :cry: :cry: :cry: already

Dear @Adarshiips

I have Allergic conjunctivitis. My eyes are sensitive to light, among other things.

I can’t stare at bright lights or anything bright for too long. If I do my eyes react and begin to water :cry: , it’s the reason I can not properly appreciate your photo…

Thanks, I will keep smiling.

TG @TravellerG let picture editing be at a minimum, when it is too much, it hurts the eyes especially of people like me. Natural photos are beautiful too.

And if ‘Brightness’ is to be infused in a Photo, one should consider if there is a contrasting color that will at least ‘check and balance’ the other color. In the photo by Adarsh, the lobby is almost Gold in color if I guessed correctly and there are lights on. There is a little contrast from something in the centre I did not quite get and that’s about it! The photo is very beautiful but I missed all the details.

Yours is of a spiral staircase seems to be in a Mall or other corporate building. The Hues of Deep blue and green are so heavy, it gives off such a melancholic feel, which I would not have wanted to experience from something like 'shopping.

For me, every Photo expresses and tells me something and I think it is the duty of the Photographer to ensure I feel what he/she feels when she took the shot. Thank you.

What does it cause for us?

  • Tearing :cry: :cry: :cry:
  • Headaches

You raise good points @Ewaade_3A in answer to your question, which I’m interpreting in how does Australia pay for accessibility? It is part of our taxes and that money is used in two ways

  • indirect support through supportive infrastructure such as ramps, signs, raised pavement dots, etc
  • direct support through disability pensions and the national disability insurance scheme so those who cannot work can maintain a standard of living

You are correct that a small percentage of any population is in a chair or has other mobility aids, but that isn’t the point, the point is that they are humans and they have a right to get around just like everyone else without having to wait around to be helped or carried. When disabled infrastructure goes in such as ramps many more than the disabled will use that infrastructure. I know I prefer a ramp over slippery steps in the rain any day for example.

Our society is rich enough to support everyone and it should. If it were only Australia I would say it was because we’re a slightly right of centre somewhat socialist republic, but the same laws exist in the USA which certainly isn’t socialist in the slightest. It is about rights not politics.

Waoow… that thought was deep.
Indeed, there are lots of things we cross paths yet we are unable to recognise and let it go.
at times i tend to overlook which is around and began to look at far.
i bet the simplest thing can also teach us great things and bring more blessings which we can’t fathom enough.And of course i do come across, which reminds me of other local guides especially when i visit some beautiful place… or something unique. :two_hearts:

I really wanted to hear your thoughts on this because you are my soulful sister. You think deeply and pay careful attention.

I wish everyone will read the Jerusalem Post. There are many lessons to learn from it.

Thanks @sophie_fusion
