When to leash your dog in public? by @kbv.animalwelf

Thanks for sharing the story about Blackie and its old-lady owner... Unfortunately, I also know a few stories similar to that one, where the "cute, never-harming" dog suddenly attacked another dog, or killed the cat because its owner couldn't control it... There are places for dogs to run unleashed, but it's definitely not in urban areas among many people, other animals, with many possible "hidden triggers" that even owners don't know!

I Was Living a Lifestyle, Not a Life by @macchiata

The social pressure is huge... Especially for young people... Trying to live "someone else's life" is almost the rule, not the exception... That sounds awful, but it's something that happens to MANY young people, and I would say you are lucky to realize it at a relatively early stage...
Btw, I followed your link about homeownership around the world and realized how LATE I was with owning my own place!! 😱 I suppose I had focused on other things, but still, I should have done it earlier... Despite living a relatively minimalist lifestyle, I still had big detours in the wrong directions... 😃

[ENG/ESP] Investigation in the Paredones Cave: A Geological and Paleontological Treasure by @tonyes

Seeing that place through your photographs left me completely surprised and amazed at the same time; it’s such an important geological treasure, and at the same time astonishing for its beauty and what it represents, so many animals from other eras swept into this place, making it a source of information and study. The technical data, which you’re well aware of given your profession, is spectacular, even though I don’t understand the technical details.
I focus on the natural beauty, on the importance of these caves, and seeing that vegetation, those trees reaching into them in search of water, is incredible. You’re so lucky to be able to be there and admire and study all of that.

SEQUELS - ABSTRACT PHOTOGRAPHY & DIGITAL TRANSFORMATIONS by @jlinaresp

I love the transformations you've given the photos. Your mind has seen something in them, and through effects and filters, you've managed to make the photos look completely transformed; many seem to have a raised texture, and in others... I see faces. There are so many I like, especially numbers 3 and 6. Then, when you've converted the photos to black and white, some become perfect for creating stories, even ghost stories!!💗
You’ve worked wonders with your creativity and your vision for photography, and that’s amazing.

The Language We Never Knew We Needed by @mandrelmykels

Honestly, I couldn't survive without GIFs and memes a day! 😃 Even on my most "offline days," I would send at least 2-3 GIFs or emojis through one of the social networks or messengers that I use... 😃 The worst thing is that I'm not that young, but I find those things motivational, entertaining, and using them, more explanatory of my current mood...
