Darwin's Imagery

Darwin tends to use metaphors drawn from organic, rather than mechanical, topics. Post Romantics such as Carlyle and Ruskin had these same technics. One of his most famous pieces of imagery was in The Orgin of Species Chapter 4 "Natural Selection. He compares a tree to his theory of natural selection, telling how this evolved over time. He did this by taking each part of the tree and relating it to a part of the natural selection process. This turned out to be one of his key points of his theory.
Today When I finally got to Australia it was amazing, anytime you can see soomething that your not use to it is create to experience. There were also alot of diffrrent animals here to research, and to just admire their beauty. I will stay here for about 61 days. I have already visted Sydney and ever thing meet my expectations. I amin joing the roads, the houses, and all of the shops. Then I was thinking about my jorney from England to South America, Tahiti, and Australia. There were tons of animals to research about about. I wish everyone could experience this trip, to see how beautiful the animals are around the countrty.
Today was a great experience on  the Galapagos Isaland. I got to look ever carefully at the beak of a  Finches. I observed how they have evolved and changed over time. These beaks change so the anmimal could last longer and become more extinct. The Finch is a very intersting and beautiful bird.

Today I worked on one of my works, i was trying to explain the "Origin of Species." This caused me to go out and do more research to continue to write. I have a feeling this is going to be very good and be worth a lot one day. My theory is going to come true... I also studied about one of my issues, the survival of the fittest. I studied how animals change to survive longer. How certain things die off. Also how things add features to become extinct.
Today I researched about the difference between different types of birds and their ancestors and how they changed over time. I also studied how totally different animals have things in common, and how animals alike don't have everything in common. I also study about the different type of birds on this island im on. I think if i keep working my theory will come true. I will not stop searching until it comes true. Days have been very long lately but its going to worth it...
