So the AI generated image is quite good today. Combining World Wildlife Day and “He that loves reading has everything within his reach”. But who owns the image? Who can use the image? Who’s image was it based on?

2020 was the year we went to Texas for sunshine in January. Only to have to return in March due to the COVID Pandemic.
Luckily, before we had to return, I had the opportunity to hike. I explored many of the local wildlife preserves and parks in the area.
The wildlife in Texas is like no other I’ve seen on my travels. Javelina, Green Jays, Pack Rats, Chachalaca, Great Kiskadee and scorpions to mention a few.

Election Day in Ontario.
In the 2022 Ontario election only about 43.5 per cent of eligible voters cast ballots. Hopefully more turn up today to vote.
We fight for Democracy and cry about Dictators, but so few actually exercise their right to vote.
So far only 6% of eligible voters have voted in the advance polls.
Get out there and vote Ontairioians. Mark your X. Yes your vote can make a difference.
Today’s Ai image: Create a featured image for a blog post titled “Porte Photos’ Daily Pic: Thursday, February 27th, 2025 – Ontario Election Day.” The main subject should be a diverse group of people of various ages and backgrounds enthusiastically heading to a polling station, holding ballot papers and encouraging each other to vote. The scene should capture a vibrant, hopeful atmosphere with bright daylight filtering through trees, symbolizing democracy and civic duty. The style should be contemporary and engaging, with an emphasis on community spirit. Please ensure the image is in high resolution, highly detailed, and with a sharp focus.
“What would life be like if we only did what is necessary?”

I think I’ll spend Thinking Day Thinking. Pondering the possibilities. Perusing the photo’s I’ve taken.
No, actually I’m spending a couple of hours training to work in the upcoming Provincial Election. I’m looking forward to a little extra cash from helping with the election 😉
