AUG 17, more couples' photos

This update continues with a pot-pourri of material, i.e. portraits of couples, following up from the previous posts.

Avid readers can find specific instances of couples' portraits on this blog. On our related blog, "Edifying Nonsense", they can find five lengthier posts, each accumulating eight to ten of these displays from our folio. There are now close to 50 of these demonstrations of close relationships in the animal world, reflecting those in the human realm. Start with the post of Febrary 10, 2021, that also discusses the pandemic-era initiative that instituted this effort!

Background subtraction, a recent technique for widespread photo-editing has had its main application in portraits of single humans. We have displayed its possible use in highlighting paired creatures in prior posts on this blog from September 5 to October 15, 2024.

but also distracts.
