You'll have to forgive me for throwing out a $3 word like multistability but isn't it a great term? Oh, and Cafe, multistable perception is the characterization of multistability in vision science. I have a crazy appreciation for weird science. But I draw the line at <A HREF="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090305/" REL="nofollow">this Weird Science...</A> <BR/><BR/>Yak, as usual I want you writing the script of my life. What YOU said!<BR/><BR/>Thanks so much for all the nice words, people. I really appreciate all of you.<BR/><BR/>Until tomorrow...Laurie Alleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14460272282273523408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-30194855223555587492008-10-12T21:41:00.000-07:002008-10-12T21:41:00.000-07:00A very heart warming photo.

Like Escher, now I know it is mysteries. But I am having a problem with finding the meaning of multistabities. More than one stability? Will someone enlighten me? Laurie, you not only give us a tailspin ride with your photos but you send us to our dictionaries. But I can appreciate the linearity of this picture. You are walking around in mysteries with a camera among the multistabilities of lines and shadows. Nothing obtuse in your ability to capture a picture and get us all caught up in its magic.Dixie Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01591688785324214877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-74546488162014770332008-10-12T09:13:00.000-07:002008-10-12T09:13:00.000-07:00Another incredible B&W image from your blog. ...Another incredible B&W image from your blog.
