TRANSITION 5 (KEY clarification)

The shadows in the natural world include a transition between the shade of the form lit by the sun and its surroundings including the clouds..., November-December 2012. In other words, there is no cerebral energy used in order to find the edge of the form (darker) to its surrounding when the sun shines, because it is already part of nature. This cerebral energy can be used to explore and figure out our purpose. 

Theories: Any human brain surrounded by recognizable sensory information (natural environments) can put its memory bank in order and eventually access personal and universal solutions because the thought process is free to explore.
By not taking into account this transition, the manufactured world traps or saps an enormous amount cerebral energy that conditions people to self destruction. 

These files are not accompanied by written explanations, they are conceived for a visual reading. It is recommended to view them more than once while listening to unified music. They are also meant to be viewed in progression, as each file is a pre requisite to the following ones. 
The continuity between these files was designed for a better understanding of this KEY discovery.

The files in transition 5 can all be printed, internet quality. The accompanying word file.rtf  (T En 3)
The purpose of the enclosed photographs is to document this transition.
To be viewed on a screen (1000 pixels or more) in width.

This file does not contain any VISUAL EXPLANATIONS, it is meant as a personal voyage and an opportunity to verify the following: Transition 5 shows that the contrasts between the different natural elements is well harmonized, playing an important role towards freeing the thought process. More information (shade 6, 7...) in late December and January 2014. 

Transition 5 (shade 5g): 22 examples of natural environments lit by the sun, seasons summer and autumn, INFRARED photography. They are mainly excerpts from connecting image 61, 62, 65 and 66 (Douglas, birch and some cottonwood trees). The left side = needle or opaque trees, and the right side = leaves or transparent trees. MINIMAL VISUAL EXPLANATIONS.

Transition 5 (Shades in motion 1): Short video (file.wmv 1820-24p, quality medium high, length 7 seconds), regular photo: Image taken inside connecting image 62, season summer 2013. Please play-pause many times and analyze the shades of the surrounding trees on the tree trunk to the left of the vertical image. After awhile, we become aware that nature includes a transition between the shaded and non shade area. Accompanying music is an excerpt from Bach's Suite for Solo Cello No. 2 in D Minor. For information about hard edged shades, please view Transition 6.

It is recommended to view the files Tr 5 shades 1-5 and the short video "Shades in motion 1", before 6, 7, 8. 
As for the two elliptical blue purple links to the right: The one on TOP is meant to be viewed at the maximum+ size on a multi-monitors system, and the MIDDLE or BOTTOM one, to be viewed on a single monitor (1 or more) at any size, from small to maximum.
