It's getting so hard to tell what is real anymore. I wonder actually if anything is real, since our senses are subjective in some respect. Is blue to me the same as blue to you?
It's an interesting thought Robert. Why do we experience a certain wavelength of light as a color? Better yet, why is it necessary to be aware of what we see? Couldn't we still be able to function without knowing about it? Maybe I'm the only person who is aware of myself and everything else is actually only in my mind. Maybe other people do exist but they are not conscious of it the way I am? They could all be like "robots" playing their part. Is it all an "act of faith"? Your comment is thought provoking.

I'm always amazed at what people can do with cameras these days. So many different programs to chose from and you can turn a photo into anything you want. Like Robert stated, it is hard to see what's real and what's not. I love coloured glass.
