Change is happening all around us, whether we notice it or not. Sometimes it’s subtle, like the way a favorite tree in your backyard grows taller each year, and other times it’s as obvious as a skyline that suddenly looks nothing like it did before.

Through photos, we can see these transformations more clearly. So we’ve gathered some of the most fascinating comparison images from around the web to show you just how remarkable they can be. Take a look below—you might find yourself appreciating the world in a whole new way.

Change is a natural part of life. Even if we refuse to take part in it, the world keeps turning, the seasons move forward, and time marches on. With everything constantly in motion, it’s easy to miss how things gradually evolve around us, or even within ourselves.

Interestingly, it’s not entirely our fault if we resist change. Humans are actually wired to be cautious about it—a survival instinct developed over many years.

“When we’re born, our brain is completely malleable and experiencing new things all the time,” says Santosh Kesari, MD, PhD, neurologist, neuro-oncologist and neuroscientist. “We’re figuring out positive and negative behaviors, what is good for survival and avoiding consequences that would cause even short-term pain. As we age, our brain learns ways to do things that make us do certain things, and behaving accordingly to each context and each stimulus.”

In other words, our brains figure out what works and what doesn’t early on. This is helpful because it means we don’t have to keep relearning positive behaviors. However, the downside is that our brains get comfortable with certain patterns, making it difficult to adopt new habits or break old ones. That’s why trying to change routines, like incorporating more exercise, can feel counterintuitive for our minds and bodies.

“Emotionally and cognitively and executively the brain has established a lot of pathways,” says Dr. Sanam Hafeez, a licensed clinical psychologist and neuropsychologist. “The more you do something the more ingrained it becomes in neural pathways, much like how a computer that stores the sites you visit—when you log onto your browser, they will pop up because you use them a lot. Change is an upheaval of many things and the brain has to work to fit it into an existing framework.”

I think this is because if women put things in their pockets it throws off her "natural body shape" and would "ruin all of her sexy curves". I totally think it's a sexist move designed to allow men to keep objectifying women's bodies.

Because women historically had handbags to hold things, back when they wore skirts and dresses. And when we started wearing trousers the fashion industry decided to keep the pockets small and keep selling handbags.

I am a fit engineer/technical Designer in the fashion industry. I agree there should be more pockets/bigger pockets on a lot of garments, but just an FYI larger pocket bags on women's denim creates fit issues due to women's denim being tighter/more form fitting around the hips/thighs (even on "boyfriend" styles). With that said though, these ones look exceptionally small. I'm curious to know what cut/style of jeans these ones are. My guess is a low/mid rise skinny as those are pretty much impossible to put large pocket bags in without causing issues.

They've definitely gotten smaller too. I bought Levi's some years ago because they had more pocket space, and each iteration since then it's like they reduce it. I fit about a third of my phone in my pocket, and 3/4s of my wallet. So annoying.

My mother was a dressmaker (was tempted to say a tailor, sewed my new blue jeans) and both I, one of my brothers and our sister learned to use a sewing machine. Roll on the years and my wife was envious of my "skills" and plotted with my mother for me to make up curtains - they're easy, honest. Roll on even more years and we had two daughters who bemoaned the size of pockets so pockets in jeans were made larger. Pockets were introduced into skirts and dresses with side seams (SERIOUSLY easy) no problem. And then it was "Could you put pockets in this skirt for Sally?" "Jenny would like bigger pockets in her jeans" . . . It's not hard to do people. If your parent can't teach you seek out a hobby shop.

So, I have a theory... If these pants had larger pockets, I would surmise that the majority of women wouldn't like them because the pants are tight and the pocket would show through the jean.... just wear "Men's" jeans...find the cut you like and wear those. unless you want a tight "feminine cut" then the pockets won't work...

Well women wear them tight to show off their figure. It is a fashion thing. Men wear them loose for comfort. They are primarily work cloths. Plus tight jeans on men can be rather uncomfortable in the sack area.

I say it every time but the fashion industry sells to women what they are willing to buy. It's a for profit industry and over the decades they keep cranking out what they think women will wear. If you only buy A and stop buying B, the industry will produce more A. When I was young most women wore dresses and very few wore pants unless they were a cowgirl or something. So guess what stores carried? Almost exclusively dresses. I have no idea how good they are but Radian Jeans advertises women's jeans with deep pockets. https://radianjeans.com/

So, tasks like driving to work or taking a shower become automatic because we do them every day. Since they’re embedded in our neural pathways, these actions make daily life easier. As a result, “the brain doesn’t have to think too much,” says Dr. Stephanie Collier, director of education in the division of geriatric psychology at McLean Hospital and an instructor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School.

Bad habits, however, are a bit different from regular routines. While they don’t benefit us, they feel good because the brain releases dopamine in response to them. When we try to break these habits, we create dissonance, which the brain resists, according to Dr. Luana Marques, associate professor of psychology at Harvard Medical School. The limbic system in the brain activates the fight-flight-or-freeze response, and our natural reaction is to avoid this “threat” by reverting to old behaviors, even though we know they aren’t good for us.

“From an evolutionary standpoint we develop these neural pathways to adapt to live, so when we encounter change our brain shifts into a protective mode,” says Hafeez. “It has to use energy from reserves and it doesn't know, from that evolutionary standpoint, if the change is good for us or not. It doesn’t know if this change is a one-time deal or whether it needs to re-establish a routine. ‘Will it hurt me?’ A lot of red flags go up.”

Humans are so set in their ways that we’re actually less cognitively flexible than some animals. A 2019 behavioral study from Georgia State University found that monkeys, for example, are much more open to trying new strategies to reach their goals.

In the study, both humans and monkeys were taught a method to achieve simple goals and receive rewards—recognition for the humans and banana pellets for the monkeys. They were then shown a shortcut that would help them reach their rewards faster. The monkeys were quick to adopt the more efficient shortcut, while humans were slower to embrace the new approach. However, once the benefits became clear, people were more likely to get on board.

Change also becomes more difficult to introduce as we age, but it’s essential for sustaining our cognitive health. “You absolutely can and should teach your brain to change,” says Hafeez. “If you stretch your brain past its comfort zone, you’re opening the door to being receptive to other types of change.”

To achieve this, there are various things we can do. Visual, spatial, and memory exercises are great ways to give your brain a workout, and many of these can be easily found online. At first, doing them regularly might not feel enjoyable.

“You will get frustrated,” notes Hafeez, “but that means it's working—just like how your muscles are sore after taking a break from the gym and then returning. You’ve been out of touch with this for a while, but the more you do it, the more your memory of how to do it comes back.”

Another effective way to make our brains more flexible is by learning new skills or hobbies that aren’t related to our daily routines. For example, learning a new language, or trying knitting if you work in IT. “Learning a new skill like this has been shown to ward off dementia, aging, and cognitive decline because it regenerates cellular activity,” says Hafeez. Even simple changes, like taking a new route home, stopping by a different coffee shop, or walking around your desk in the opposite direction, can help.

Ultimately, regularly challenging ourselves to try new things and make positive changes can open us up to viewing the world differently and help us build confidence.

“Most people won’t try something new because they’re deathly afraid of failing,” says Hafeez. “When you see that something is doable it makes you more receptive and brave. There’s that emotional, therapeutic factor that is separate from the neural pathway factor. Over the years, we learn to succeed by viewing our previous failures and successes in a certain light and as we get older we lose sight of that. When you try a new thing it makes you more confident to try to do more new things.”

It is not about the amount of sunlight, but about the amount and type of fertilizer / nutrients in the soil. I'm guessing your neighbour is fertilizing his lawn.

May be brain-injury or stroke related, may be something to do with the light-reception in the eye with the larger pupil (partially blindness), may be because the eye with the smaller pupil is closer to a source of light than the other, or has been exposed to more light right before the picture was made.

The "wild" one is actually a different variety, will never grow any bigger even if you raised them in the commercial environment. Called Woodland Strawberries (Fraises des Bois) in French, we get them in shady area with plenty of moisture. Sooo sweet.

Dang shame 😔 same happened to us, across from our house we used to have an expanse of grass and a clear view of Mt. Rainier, a rarity in our dense city area! All was good for about a year...then of course the grass was developed into some atrocious boxy modern building. Now we can only see about 1/4 of Mt. Rainier. Used to spend many an evening on the porch watching the sun set and turn the mountain all pink and purple and pretty. Now it's a dang parking lot 💀

There's about 2 to 3 times more fat in the 8 weeks post-partum milk. The colostrum is yellow due to having higher levels of beta carotene. This gets metabolised as Vitamin A, and helps develop a strong immune system.

There's a law in computers (which I'm too lazy to look up while I'm doomscrolling at four in the morning) that says computer memory will double every five years while the cost will halve. Experts have been worried that we have hit the endpoint of this equation for decades, but so far it continues to hold true.

For those who can't read the fine pint, the bottom bill says "For Motion Picture Purposes Only" instead of "The United States of America". Otherwise they look identical, although you can feel the difference in the paper. Even so, I work in retail and you'd be surprised how many cashiers accept these bills without even checking (thankfully none at my store).

Plastic bottles are never 100% watertight. Fluid (mostly the water part of it) diffuses through the plastic itself and, due to changes in temperature and pressure in the bottle, the caps can come loose a wee tiny bit.
