Happy Bokeh Wednesday!!
I must be going wacky or something. I looked at these dandelions and saw two things; fingers making a peace sign and a face, well at least the eyes! :-)
Yep, I am going wacky I think! I have to stop uploading these photos so late at night!
Yes, it's scientifically proven: as suggested by nautical expert Valpo, the Sigma transforms boats into bananas!
Taken in Port Andratx, Mallorca, Spain.
HDR from 3 exposures, handheld. Using Nikon D300, and Sigma 10-20, of course!
Have a good day everyone!
Made Explore on 9 September 2008, thanks for all you comments and faves!
L'addio… che tra vento e sabbia mi lasciò memorie ridondandi tra la mente e il cuore. Ne ricordo l'essenza, e l'incapacità di tener dritto il capo vedendola andar via.
(...perche' non sia distante piu' del mio pensiero il tuo respiro.)

The Alps (French: Alpes; German: Alpen; Italian: Alpi; Romansh: Alps; Slovene: Alpe) is the name for one of the great mountain range systems of Europe, stretching from Austria and Slovenia in the east, through Italy, Switzerland, Liechtenstein and Germany to France in the west. The word "Alps" was taken via French from Latin Alpes (meaning "the Alps"), which may be influenced by the Latin words albus (white) or altus (high) or more likely a Latin rendering of a Celtic or Ligurian original.
The highest mountain in the Alps is Mont Blanc, at 4,808 metres (15,774 ft), on the Italian-French border. All the main peaks of the Alps can be found in the list of mountains of the Alps and list of Alpine peaks by prominence.
The Alps are generally divided into the Western Alps and the Eastern Alps. The division is along the line between Lake Constance and Lake Como, following the Rhine. The Western Alps are higher, but their central chain is shorter and curved; they are located in Italy, France and Switzerland. The Eastern Alps (main ridge system elongated and broad) belong to Austria, Germany, Italy, Liechtenstein, Slovenia and Switzerland.
The Alps are a classic example of what happens when a temperate area at lower altitude gives way to higher elevation terrain. Elevations around the world which have cold climates similar to those found in polar areas have been called alpine. A rise from sea level into the upper regions of the atmosphere causes the temperature to decrease. The effect of mountain chains on prevailing winds is to carry warm air belonging to the lower region into an upper zone, where it expands in volume at the cost of a proportionate loss of heat, often accompanied by the precipitation of moisture in the form of snow or rain.

According to traditional Astrology, Jupiter and Neptune together rule the oceans and seas.
Maybe you’ll find interesting the following text.. :)
Planet of Luck Jupiter is the thinking person's Planet. As the guardian of the abstract mind, this Planet rules higher learning and bestows upon us a yen for exploring ideas, both intellectually and spiritually. Intellectually speaking, Jupiter assists us in formulating our ideology. In the more spiritual realm, Jupiter lords over religions and philosophy. A search for the answers is what Jupiter proposes, and if it means spanning the globe to find them, well, that's probably why Jupiter also rules long-distance travel. In keeping with this theme, Jupiter compels us to assess our ethical and moral values; it also addresses our sense of optimism.
Luck and good fortune are associated with Jupiter for good reason. This is a kind and benevolent Planet, one which wants us to grow and flourish in a positive way. Jupiter may be judge and jury, but it's mostly an honorable helpmate, seeing to it that we're on the right path. While our success, accomplishments and prosperity are all within Jupiter's realm, this largely can, at times, deteriorate into laziness and sloth (Jupiter, at its worst, is associated with weight gain!). More often than not, however, Jupiter will guide us down the primrose path.
It takes Jupiter about twelve years to circle the Zodiac (the Planet visits an average of one Sign a year). It is masculine energy and rules both Sagittarius and Pisces and the Ninth and Twelfth Houses.
Neptune's glyph is the trident of Poseidon, God of the Seas. Much about this Planet is fluid (Neptune rules the oceans of the Earth), changeable and illusory in nature. Dreams, illusion, abstract thought and the mysterious are all governed by Neptune. Our spirituality is important to this Planet, and how we harness that energy for our personal betterment. Neptune invites us to let its energy wash over us and to use a meditative state to gain insights and heightened awareness. Poetry, music and dance are among the trance-like activities which this Planet favors.
It takes Neptune 165 years to complete its whirl around the Zodiac, spending roughly 14 years at each Sign. It is feminine energy and rules Pisces and the Twelfth House . Neptune is known as the higher octave of Venus and is the second of the transcendental Planets.
Taken in Bolivia July 2008. This is a summit shot of Huayna Potosi and the successful climbers on it. Our group had started at 02:00hrs and were on top shortly before sunrise. After waiting around 15 minutes for the sun to break the horizon, I photographed this on the descent.

My spouse got herself a nice new little camera and she snapped this pic up at the “Burgess Shale - Walcott Quarry”. The very knowledgeable guides were asked a question regarding a new theory, and since I had already spent a day with the scientist in question, I found that I was adding my own two bits worth to their answer. Here, I'm caught in the act.
That is Mount Wapta on the right. We have basically hiked over a pass and along scree slopes under the peak to get here. Michael Peak and Emerald Glacier in the background.
"...Caminho como quem anda
na direção de si mesmo,
e, de tanto andar a esmo,
fui de uma a outra banda,
e se a inspiração me comanda,
da trilha logo me afasto
e até sementes de pasto
replanto pelas vermelhas
estradas velhas parelhas,
ao repisar no meu rastro..."

This mosaic is based on the sculptures running around between the first-floor-windows of the Pyramide court of the Louvre, Paris, including Richeliu-, Sully- and Denon-wings of the building. The hall of fame consists of characters coming mainly from the XVIIth century (poets, writers, philosophers, artists, sculptors, painters, architects, politicians etc.). First I thought I would eliminate the differences between the original photos - later I didn't change them but just cropped and resized - the change of colour & tone reflects appropriately the time I spent with taking them (approx. 15 minutes; however, postwork including editing, identifying, even tagging took me weeks later) and due to the direction of the evening sunlight even the symmetry of the U-form space, as well.

At an archery competition… she made her own bow and came 3rd in her first outdoor competition :) (The next year, with the same bow, she was first, the Champion)
Here she is just moments before the final set, which she entered in second place, after a long day of a variety of sets.
Áo dài
The áo dài is a Vietnamese national costume for women. In its current form, it is a tight-fitting silk dress worn over pantaloons. Together with a nón lá hat, it creates an ensemble that is instantly recognizable as Vietnamese. Áo dài is pronounced "ow yai" in the South, and "ow zai" in the North. Áo is derived from a Middle Chinese word meaning "padded coat" (襖).[1] In modern Vietnamese, áo refers to an item of clothing that covers from the neck down. Dài means "long."
The word áo dài was applied to various garments historically, including the five-paneled áo ngũ thân or "traditional áo dài," a 19th century aristocratic gown. Inspired by Paris fashions, Hanoi artist Nguyễn Cát Tường redesigned this gown as a dress in 1930.[2] In the 1950s, Saigon designers tightened the fit to produce the version worn by Vietnamese women today.[3] The communists, who have ruled all of Vietnam since 1975, generally disapproved of the dress and argued for utilitarian clothing.[4] In the 1990s, the áo dài regained popularity.[4] The equivalent garment for men, called an áo gấm ("brocade robe"), is also worn on occasion, such as at a wedding or a death anniversary.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%c3%81o_d%c3%a0i
in japan kyudo (archery) is "the way of the bow."
In its most pure form, kyūdō is practiced as an art and as a means of moral and spiritual development. Many archers practice kyūdō as a sport, with marksmanship being paramount. However, the goal most devotees of kyūdō seek is seisha seichu, "correct shooting is correct hitting". In kyūdō the unique action of expansion (nobiai) that results in a natural release, is strived for. When the spirit and balance of the shooting is correct the result will be for the arrow to arrive in the target. To give oneself completely to the shooting is the spiritual goal. In this respect, many kyūdō practitioners believe that competition, examination, and any opportunity that places the archer in this uncompromising situation is important, while other practitioners will avoid competitions or examinations of any kind.

ZLATIBOR is a mountain of exquisite beauty. It has pleasant and mild climate, large clearings, exuberant pastures intersected with mountains with mountain streams and pine trees - which this mountain is named for.
The average hight is about 1000m above sea level.
Mountain and sea gulfs encounter here which speed up the curing and the recovering from large number of lung and heart illnesses, especially from illnesses of thyroid gland and anemia.
The Balkans is the historical name of a geographic region of southeastern Europe. The region takes its name from the Balkan Mountains, which run through the centre of Bulgaria into eastern Serbia. The region has a combined area of 550,000 km2 (212,000 sq mi) and a population of about 55 million people.
The ancient Greek name for the Balkan Peninsula was “the Peninsula of Haemus” (Χερσόνησος του Αίμου, Chersónisos tou Aímou).
The Balkans are adjoined by water on three sides: the Black Sea to the east and branches of the Mediterranean Sea to the south and west (including the Adriatic, Ionian, Aegean and Marmara seas).
The identity of the Balkans is dominated by its geographical position; historically the area was known as a crossroads of various cultures. It has been a juncture between the Latin and Greek bodies of the Roman Empire, the destination of a massive influx of pagan Slavs, an area where Orthodox and Catholic Christianity met, as well as the meeting point between Islam and Christianity.
The Balkans today is a very diverse ethno-linguistic region, being home to multiple Slavic, Romance, and Turkic languages, as well as Greek, Albanian, and others. Through its history many other ethnic groups with their own languages lived in the area, among them Thracians, Illyrians, Romans, Uzes, Pechenegs, Cumans, Avars, Celts, Germans, and various Germanic tribes.
The Balkan region was the first area of Europe to experience the arrival of farming cultures in the Neolithic era. The practices of growing grain and raising livestock arrived in the Balkans from the Fertile Crescent by way of Anatolia, and spread west and north into Pannonia and Central Europe.
In pre-classical and classical antiquity, this region was home to Greek city-states, Illyrians, Paeonians, Thracians, Epirotes, Mollosians, Thessalians, Dacians and other ancient groups. Later the Roman Empire conquered most of the region and spread Roman culture and the Latin language but significant parts still remained under classical Greek influence. During the Middle Ages, the Balkans became the stage for a series of wars between the Byzantine, Bulgarian and Serbian Empires.
