Stephen Jay Gould
Our mind works largely by metaphor and comparison, not always (or even often) by relentless logic. When we are caught in conceptual traps, the best exit is often a change in metaphor—not because the new guideline will be truer to nature...but because we need a shift to more fruitful perspectives, and metaphor is often the best agent for conceptual transition.

Bully for Brontosaurus: Reflections in Natural HistoryOn Attribution
I'm a writer and photographer.
I license my own online work through
Creative Commons.
When I cite books or websites, I link to them. When I use images, I add a pop-up title which gives attribution. Also, the image itself usually links to the source website.
Often the images link to
very interesting source sites which I am nudging my readers to look at.
Have fun. Be honest. Give attribution!
