The Winter Solstice is here, which is always welcome, as the days begin getting longer and Spring is getting closer. Nice!

Recordando el otoño con esta imagen de Santa María la Real de Tanes en el embalse del mismo nombre Tanes! ya que este año no pude disfrutar por el confinamiento perimetral.
Desearos un feliz fin de semana
The "Pearl of the Orient" TV tower and the surrounding skyscrapers in the Lujiazui financial district as seen from the Garden Bridge (外白渡桥).
As this was taken just past 10 PM most lights on the Pudong side are already switched off, this makes the Pearl Tower stand out even more.
The white "column" on the right behind the bridge truss is the "Shanghai Monument to the People's Heroes" (上海市人民英雄纪念塔) usually shortly called "Heroes Memorial". A concrete structure of three columns in the stylized form of three rifles leaned against each other. Here this monument is seen from below.

Most likely a few million images of Neuschwanstein Castle have been taken over the years, but this one is mine. Shot was taken from Marienbrücke on a cloudy drizzly normal late autumn day. Hadn't really thought about posting till today. Hope everyone on flickr is enjoying their week. :-)
Et moi je rêve
Accroché à la lune
Et moi je rêve
De décrocher la lune
Et moi je rêve... (Paroles de la chanson Casting par Christophe Maé)
(Sculpture de Giacinto Bosco." Altalena sulla Luna"). Iseo.
And I dream, hanging on the Moon.🎶🎵
And I dream
Hanging on the moon
And I dream
To take down the moon
And I dream...
(Lyrics of the song Casting by Christophe Maé)
I came across these tiny white flowers at a Michigan State Park near my home on Saturday. Processed for Sliders Sunday.

Thanks to Laura, Mary Radike Smith, leapinlilly and Sharon (& Wayne) for identifying these blossoms as Spring Beauties (Claytonia virginica), also known as fairy spuds

Crocus (plural: crocuses or croci) is a genus of flowering plants in the iris family comprising 90 species of perennials growing from corms. Many are cultivated for their flowers appearing in autumn, winter, or spring. Crocuses are native to woodland, scrub, and meadows from sea level to alpine tundra in central and southern Europe, North Africa and the Middle East, on the islands of the Aegean, and across Central Asia to western China.
The name of the genus is derived from the Greek κρόκος (krokos). This, in turn, is probably a loan word from a Semitic language, related to Hebrew כרכום karkōm, Aramaic ܟܟܘܪܟܟܡܡܐ kurkama, and Arabic كركم kurkum, which mean "saffron" ( Crocus sativus), "saffron yellow" or turmeric (see Curcuma). The English name is a learned 16th-century adoption from the Latin, but Old English already had croh "saffron". The Classical Sanskrit कुङ्कुमं kunkumam "saffron" (Sushruta Samhita) is presumably also from the Semitic word.
Cultivation and harvesting of Crocus sativus for saffron was first documented in the Mediterranean, notably on the island of Crete. Frescos showing them are found at the Knossos site on Crete, as well as from the comparably aged Akrotiri site on Santorini.
The first crocus seen in the Netherlands, where crocus species are not native, were from corms brought back in the 1560s from Constantinople by the Holy Roman Emperor's ambassador to the Sublime Porte, Ogier Ghiselin de Busbecq. A few corms were forwarded to Carolus Clusius at the botanical garden in Leiden. By 1620, the approximate date of Ambrosius Bosschaert's painting (illustration, below), new garden varieties had been developed, such as the cream-colored crocus feathered with bronze at the base of the bouquet, similar to varieties still on the market. Bosschaert, working from a preparatory drawing to paint his composed piece spanning the whole of spring, exaggerated the crocus so that it passes for a tulip, but its narrow, grass-like leaves give it away.

The leaves are all gone for another season. Soon the river will begin to freeze up and the snow will start to fall. It saddens me - as I am a summer person.
