Some interesting facts about brain !!!

The Brain's Energy Consumption 

Despite making up only about 2% of the body's weight, the brain consumes around 20% of the body's energy. This high energy demand is necessary to fuel the brain's countless processes, including thinking, memory, and regulating bodily functions.

Neuroplasticity 

The brain's ability to reorganize itself and form new neural connections throughout life is known as neuroplasticity. This remarkable feature allows the brain to adapt to changes in the environment, learn new skills, and recover from injuries. Neuroplasticity is at the core of learning and memory formation, and it plays a crucial role in rehabilitation after brain injuries.

The Brain's Processing Speed

Neurons, the cells that transmit information in the brain, can communicate with each other at incredibly high speeds. Some neurons can transmit signals at speeds of up to 120 meters per second. This rapid communication enables the brain to process vast amounts of information and orchestrate complex behaviors and thoughts in real-time.

Just One More !!!

I typically take hundreds of photos during each of my photo session, meticulously selecting just one that captures the perfect combination of subject, light, and composition that I seek. I enjoy the process of experimentation and exploration until I capture that elusive, ideal image. The remaining ninety-nine photos are swiftly deleted, leaving only the masterpiece that encapsulates the essence of my journey. Join me in savoring the canvases of photos and ideal image‼

Sunglasses for your Camera !!!

How a UV Filter Can Protect Your Lens
Let's start out with the technical definition: UV stands for Ultra-Violet, and UV filters are designed to keep Ultra-Violet rays from entering the lens. Here's a simpler one: a UV filter is a clear piece of glass. The filter won't alter your photographs: it won't change the colors or make things look blurry.


So what's the point of a clear piece of glass?
The clear UV filter screws onto the front of your lens. Imagine that you're on a hike and grind the front of your lens against a sharp rock. Without a UV filter in place, you're going to have to replace the lens. This can cost anywhere from $300 to $3000 (depending upon the lens).
With a UV filter in place, the only thing you've damaged - and need to replace - is the filter. Approximate cost: $30.

What's the Catch?
Since the logic behind a UV filter makes so much sense, why doesn't everyone use them all the time? Most people do, but there are some professional photographers who argue that a UV filter affects the quality of your photos regardless of the filter's clarity. This argument also makes sense: for the clearest possible images, don't put something on the front of your lens and leave it there all the time. In the end, the answer has a lot to do with how you use your camera:

• If you enjoy taking your SLR on your travels, hikes and other excursions, where there is a high chance of smacking the front of the lens on something, then always use a UV filter
• If you take photos in more controlled environments (indoors, studio, etc.) then you may opt to leave off the UV filter to ensure the highest possible image quality
