As I get ready for a memorial service for my patient who passed, I’m thinking about what gets our attention.
What gets your attention my images for today?

Here’s what I find on YouTube when I search for “what gets our attention.”

Does gratitude get our attention?
Picture this: one thousand, six hundred and fifty-four days ago (can you picture who is counting?), I published another blog post “Picture this” including pictures of
Picture this: Jonathan thought we should be pictured in a Gap print ad in the 1990s, using a great picture by Kathy Tarantola.
Picture this: I haven’t yet revealed why the title of today’s blog post is “Picture This.” Yesterday, I discovered a free phone app “PictureThis” which identifies plants and flowers. Can you picture how that affected the pictures I took yesterday?
Picture this: I’m on vacation from my job, so I’m letting someone else do it this week and next.
Here‘s a YouTube video about PictureThis:
Here‘s “Picture This” by Blondie:
Here‘s “Picture This” by Kero Kero Bonito:
Can you picture being at a live concert with crowds again? Picture this: I will be at a live concert again, I just don’t know when.
I am now picturing the comments I’m going to get on this “Picture This” post.
Whenever possible, I take pictures of gratitude, so that you can picture my thanks to all who help me take pictures to create these daily posts, including PictureThis and YOU!
Could this be another daily post from me? Could today’s blog post be inspired by The Curse of Oak Island, a TV show I first heard about yesterday at a birthday celebration for my niece, Laura?
Could this be Joe — Laura’s step-father and brother-in-law — telling me about the treasure hunting on The Curse of Oak Island and how the show’s dramatic narration constantly notices clue and repeats exposition, asking questions like “Could this be the triangular rock that will finally lead us to the treasure’s destination after searching for all these years?”
Could this be my introduction to the rest of my photos from yesterday, many of which include ducks? (Could “duck” be my answer to the question, “If you could be any animal, what would you be?“)
Could this be the latest vegetarian culinary masterpiece from Michael? Could this be the point that I remind you that you can click on any of the above photos to enlarge them?
Could this be where I include the opening from The Curse of Oak Island?
Could this be Stephen Colbert interviewing the brothers from The Curse of Oak Island?
Could this be my request for comments?
Could this be my thanks to all who helped me create today’s post and to (dramatic music) YOU?
With all the conflicts among stories and among people out there, how do we figure out the real story?
Yesterday, I saw a magazine that promised to tell the real story …
… but I didn’t have the real time to read it.
Do you see the real story in any of my other photos?
I think the real story is different to those on the outside and those on the inside. Harley probably has a different story about last night than I do.
Also, what’s the real story with this?
Every picture tells a story, don’t it?
What’s the real story, according to you?
The real story, according to me, includes gratitude, so thanks to all who helped me create today’s post and — of course! — to YOU.
