Makes me wonder how we can be sure about reality and the physical world at all.

It's a great picture indeed. Do we see red because it's CocaCola and we expect it to be red, or is there some other mechanism at play? Does the form of the lines induce a sense of color?

I will never tire of admiring buildings like this - a work that took 60 years to realise!

Maybe I'm just an old fart (my wife says so) but what architecture from 2024 will still

Beautiful - thanks for posting .
 
Earlier today: FFOTY
First Fawn Of the Year (in the yard, that is), 2024.





I watched a YouTube veterinarian video the other day and a dog had a ~7" gash from a deer's front hoof. Those female deer can defend and attack if required.

Charly Chaplin moved from USA to the part of Switzerland where French is the language, so his 11 children ( with the same wife ??? )
are speaking English and French. Switzerland is divided by 3 languages German, French and Italian.

The house of Charly Chaplin by the Lake LEMAN in Switzerland... has been sold 40 millions euros. I've been able to visit the house ! today it's like a museum.
then outside the house there is a place where you can see the costumes that Chaplin used in the first films.

ABIDJAN above is a town in Africa, Capital of Ivory Cost - there are many elephants - where I lived during 14 years. The population is mostly black, few white...
Before moving to Abidjan I lived 2 years in LOME capital of Togo, Africa.
The main language in these two countries is French.
