"The problem is not the problem. The problem is that the cause of the problem is not the problem." Thinking about how we encounter and respond to things that need fixing.

October, in the Scenic Rim of Southern Queensland, often brings the first spring storms after a dry spell. Outside my window, this morning, I can hear the frogs as I watch the drops of rain left on the grevilleas. #OneDipOfThePen

Close up of a grevillea plant against a stormy sky. Raindrops collected on the leaves gather and reflect the light like liquid diamonds. The caption reads "October frogs croak at jewels left by the first spring storms." One Dip of the Pen. Andy C. Wood.

Wrapped in amethyst, a supermassive black hole bends spacetime into an eternal dance, where matter approaches the event horizon and the universe begins to surrender its secrets.

Close-up photograph of a pair of ankle-length socks featuring bold horizontal rainbow stripes. The socks display bands of red, orange, yellow, green, turquoise, blue, purple, and pink, creating a vibrant Pride-inspired design. The wearer stands on tiptoe with one foot slightly in front of the other, highlighting the colourful pattern. The background is a soft beige wall above a light grey floor, with gentle, even lighting that emphasises the texture of the fabric and the vivid colours.

A single soft grey feather rests against a nearly black background, illuminated by a narrow, gentle light that reveals its delicate texture and separated barbs. The feather emerges from the darkness as the sole visible object, creating a striking contrast between fragility, light, and surrounding shadow.

At the edge of forever, starlight spins its final, luminous lullaby. Indigo clouds and violet fires swirl through the cosmic silence, drawn inexorably toward the irresistible pull of the abyss—where all light fades into a central, crimson heartbeat.

A digital artwork depicting a massive spiral galaxy swirling into a central black hole with a glowing red center. Bright pink and magenta gas swirls around the dark core, encircled by sweeping spiral arms of luminous electric blue and indigo nebula dust. The dark star-filled backdrop features a distant spiral galaxy in the top left and a crescent planet in the top right.

Vibrant post-impressionistic painting of four open doorways arranged within a stone landscape. Each doorway reveals a different scene: a golden path leading towards mountains beneath a bright sun, two coastal sunsets framed in orange and blue, and a deep-blue night sky filled with stars above distant mountains. Flowering vines and purple irises surround the doors, while swirling, textured brushstrokes unite the contrasting scenes of daylight, sunset and night.

Golden sunlight illuminates rolling clouds of mist flowing like waves through a forested mountain valley. Dark silhouettes of evergreen trees line the foreground, while layered ridges fade into the glowing haze. Warm amber and orange tones fill the scene, creating a dramatic contrast between light and shadow. The mist appears to cascade over the hills, giving the landscape a serene, dreamlike quality at sunrise or sunset.

An igneous intrusion cut by a pegmatite dyke, which in turn is cut by a dolerite dyke. These rocks are of Precambrian (Proterozoic) age and they are located in Kosterhavet National Park on Yttre Ursholmen island in the Koster Islands in Sweden. The oldest igneous rocks in this photo show features caused by magma mingling or magma mixing.

Interior view of a modern concrete structure built into a rocky mountainside. A large three-panel window frames a panoramic view of rugged, snow-covered mountain peaks beneath a clear blue sky. Dark stone walls and exposed concrete surfaces surround the window, creating a striking contrast between the shadowed interior and the bright alpine landscape beyond. A black textured floor stretches across the foreground, drawing the eye towards the dramatic mountain vista. The composition is symmetrical and minimalist, emphasising the connection between architecture and the natural environment.

A small brass pocket compass rests on a sandy beach near the shoreline. The compass lid is open, revealing a black and white compass face with directional markings. Soft-focus ocean waves and a cloudy horizon form the background, creating a calm coastal scene. The golden metal contrasts with the pale sand, symbolising guidance, direction, and navigation.

A silhouetted person is captured mid-air in a dynamic jump inside a weathered wooden structure. The photograph is taken from a low angle, looking up through a large rectangular opening towards a bright, overcast sky. Wooden beams and planks frame the scene on both sides, creating strong lines that draw the eye to the airborne figure. The contrast between the dark interior and the bright background emphasises movement, balance, and athletic skill, suggesting the discipline and precision associated with parkour.

Art Nouveau-style illustration of a winter landscape at sunrise. A large leafless tree stands on a snow-covered hillside in the left foreground, while an intricate network of roots spreads through a cross-section of dark earth beneath the surface. In the distance, a golden sun rises over rolling hills, a winding river, and a stand of tall trees, sending long radiating rays across a warm amber sky. Clusters of white snowdrop flowers bloom in the lower right foreground, symbolising the arrival of spring. The entire scene is framed by an ornate decorative border of flowing vines, floral motifs, and interlacing patterns characteristic of Art Nouveau design. The colour palette features gold, cream, olive green, brown, and muted blue-grey tones, creating a contrast between winter dormancy above ground and vibrant life hidden below the surface.
