As We Grow Older

By Don Iannone

 

Summer flowers

Slipping away

Like the sun at dusk

The youthful spring, no more

In the old man's step

 

Dog-eared cone flowers

Droopy pink petals

Spiny orange tops

As best they can

Holding on for dear life

 

Our lives at times

Weak-kneed, fragile, out of kilter

Like some faint bad dream

Weighing upon us

Lingering well past morning coffee

 

Sometimes we wonder

Especially when afraid

If it's something we've done

That's driven our lives away

Or maybe just time to say goodbye

"...Por isso é que habito

no arreio sovado

tal fosse um centauro

sem lei nem consolo,

metade campeiro,

tropeiro ou soldado

e a outra metade,

o cavalo crioulo..."

 

Trecho de "Alma crioula", de Rodrigo Bauer

Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil

Okeh this photo was a late release, yes this was supposed to be the cover page for my recent book but later I changed my mind.

 

Today I wrote something and If you find any grammatical mistake please advice me. I will change it, else please let me know how it is.

 

Here it goes

 

"In life,

Exceptional thing happens,

A self-revived invitation from life,

Break-loose may not be possible.

Sometime it happens.

 

Muted lake,

Adequate to reflect the dark clouds.

Heavy drops piercing the sky,

falling one by one

Sometime it happens.

 

A lone me,

Staring at the stars in the blue sky,

Decoding the star language,

Thinking this as a way to see my Angel.

Sometime it happens.

 

Wonder if,

I could change the wind direction,

Or add a color to the rainbow,

may be I could find heaven!

else say I found a way,

to decode the star language.

 

It happened,

A part of moon crescent,

In human form roaming in the earth.

The perfect definition for an Angel.

This time it happened.

 

I heard,

People saying

You may have your reasons,

To hate someone.

You may not have any reasons,

To love someone.

 

If you,

have any reasons to love

Its the reason you love,

and not the person.

It happened, when I saw you

 

You know,

This is a second of million wishes

to see my Angel sleep, frown, smile,

her naughty cry, see her watching a horror film,

enjoying the rain, holding my hands,

eating ice-cream, sneezing, her anger,

see her in a black dress,

with crown made of flowers,

thinking, her morning face,

holding the umbrella,

pooching a cute puppy,

jumping on the bed,

see her playing prank,

see her tingling face,

her intriguing eyes,

see her as the queen,

her kissing a baby,

her being a baby, s

ee her running from waves,

see her lick the candy

 

...

Sometime it happens.

 

Hold-back wishes,

It may or may not happen,

It’s like you listen the hush alone,

after a fitful rain.

 

In life,

Exceptional thing happens,

A self-revived invitation from life,

Break-loose may not be possible.

Sometime it happens.

 

All of a sudden,

It showers for a moment,

That leaves a pleasant memory,

Just like the secret rain.

You are my secret rain.”

 

P.S: I know its bit long ... sorry :-(

On Sunday evening (Aug 23, 2009) went with friend Anwar Khawari to take some photographs of bale, field, sunset etc.

A lot of shots I like seem to have some kind of texture added. If done right I think this is a very cool way to add extra interest to a shot. Until I got my dSLR this year, my Photoshop skills were limited to cropping and adjusting brightness and contrast. Slowly I have been picking up different skills with a touch of googling and all the wonderful tutorials out there :) For this shot I used two textures from the Totally Free Textures Group, an invaluable resource. Armed with my textures, I used this tutorial: How to Use Textures to Enhance Your Photographs. And voila!

 

Have to say I am my worst critic, but I was quite pleased with how this turned out. Hope you like it too.

 

Some trivia courtesy of Wikipedia:

 

The Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas sign is a Las Vegas Strip landmark funded in May 1959 and erected soon after by Western Neon. In a nod to Nevada's nickname as "the Silver State," across the top of the sign are white neon circles, designed to represent silver dollars. On the back or north side, the sign reads "Drive Carefully. Come Back Soon".

 

On October 4, 1999, the sign went dark for about a month when the company that had been paying the power bill was bought by another company who did not pay the bill. When the problem was discovered, payment of the past due amount, under $60, was made, and power was turned back on.

 

On December 8, 2008, a small parking lot was opened in the median of Las Vegas Boulevard to allow official public access to the sign for the first time. Prior to the parking lot's construction, visitors to the sign were forced to cross the northbound or southbound lanes of Las Vegas Blvd. without the benefit of any traffic signal or crosswalk. While no one is known to have been killed while trying to access the sign, increasing traffic at the south end of the Strip has made a crossing increasingly dangerous. The new parking lot provides 10 standard parking spaces, two handicapped spaces, and two large spaces for buses or limousines.

Dear friends, in this shot you may take a look at a small peninsula with a house just near the sea. The house is surrounded by a great garden and it has a direct access to a small beach (not visible in the photo). The house is in Paraggi, quite near Portofino. Guess who lives here? It's not me, of course!

Don't forget to enjoy your Monday with the blue colour of Mediterranean sea!

From the archive, the series "Bulatura Sector"

My impression of the journey to Bade Emirate in Yobe State where I traveled to the remote areas in the Sahel zone, the Bulatura Oases in 2009.

The sector has a series of swampy valleys separated by scenic dunes.

The route: Gashua, Kachallari, Yusufari, Tuli-Tulo Oases, Laridi Oases, Kachimaram Oases, Burumwadi Oases, Tulo-Tulo Kulbuwa Oases, Jarari, Jajari, Fatimeri, Kuriwakko Dunes, Maimalari Dunes, Gu Malanti, Mainari.

People living here are farmers and livestock keepers. The valleys contain rich deposits of potash that are sold by traders at Gashua Potash Market.

The ethnic groups are the Kanuri, Fulani, Hausa. Bade, Shuwa, Marghi, and Manga.

Koh Mak is a large island located between Koh Chang and Koh Kood Most of its plains area is coconut plantations. The whole area of this island covers 16 sq.km with a round distance of 27 km. Long coconut beaches and crystal clear sea are the splendid attractions of the island. A natural, tropical island, Thailand's preserved treasure, is an ideal destination for visitors who enjoy a tranquil environment unspoiled by mass tourism. Amongst 10,000 palm trees, there’s a temple, three fishing community villages, rubber plantations, and still uninhabited beaches like this unspoiled Aow Pra beach above. I found several hermit crabs running here at the beach. The hermit crab is a type of crab that doesn't have a very hard shell. Not a true crab, it uses other animals' old shells for protection; they especially like old whelk shells. As the hermit crab grows in size, it must find a larger shell. Koh Mak is the perfect place to relax, explore, calm your mind and smoothe your senses. Koh Mak Island, where less is more.

 

Koh Mak is a little island perfect to explore and getting close to nature, bicycle through coconut plantations along the coastline full of thousand coconut palm trees. Even during raining season a great place to be. Temperature of 32 degrees Celcius. (90 ºF). Once a day a speedboat brings visitors to the island. About 10 tourist a day will visit the island during raining season. Many resort are also closed. You will get that Robinson Crusoe feeling when you explore uninhabited beaches of this pretty island. Photo of this Hermit crab taken on the unspoiled Aow Pra beach north of Koh Mak.

 

Koh Mak is een redelijk groot eiland dat ligt tussen Koh Chang en Koh Kood maar dan veel rustiger dan eilanden als Phuket, Ko Samui en ook Ko Chang. Je komt hier om te relaxen in je hangmat en van de stralende zee te genieten. Je kunt prima snorkelen bij koralen en languit liggen op helderwitte stranden. Koh Mak ligt met amper 2.000 bewoners in de beschermde Koh Chang Marine Park archipelago in de provincie Trat. Het is het derde grootste eiland van de provincie met een oppervlakte van amper 16 km². Koh Mak heeft een omtrek van 27 kilometer. De archipel telt 52 eilanden die verspreid liggen over een oppervlakte van 650 km². Het eiland kan je het best ontdekken per voet, fiets of kano. Er zijn nog ongerepte stranden op tropische eiland Koh Mak waar je zeker een Robinson Crusoe gevoel krijgt. Een strand waar niet elke schelp een schelp schijnt te zijn. De heremietkreeft is bekend door het gebruik van een lege schelp, meestal een slakkenhuis, als bescherming voor het weke achterlijf. Foto genomen op het nog ongerepte Aow Pra strand aan de stille noordkant van het eiland Koh Mak.

 

A view of the Fairy Glen from the other side of the Butte. Can you pick-out the cosmic circle of stones. Can you spot any naked ladies dancing in the centre of the spiral? If not then read on! The steep path leads right up into that cleft in the butte and onto the top of the geologic feature. From there you can be the King or Queen of the Fairy Castle!

 

The Faerie or Fairy Glen, is an area of otherworldly appearance, located close to Uig in the northwest of the Isle of Skye. It is a quiet place, except for bleating sheep, and is often described as fairy-like, yet relaxing. It is wild and far out, covered with something in the region of over 360 strangely shaped little conical hills. It is a pleasant natural spot with more than a hint of mystery. The hills are erosional features and geologists say that the distinctive landforms have been caused by a large landslip similar to the ones responsible for other parts of Skye’s unique topography e.g. the larger-scale Quiraing Area.

  

The area of the Fairy Glen is reported to be more than 15,000 square metres and contains numerous small, conical-shaped hillocks rising 2 - 10 metres in height. These hillocks are overgrown with thick, green turfy grass, are covered with bleating sheep and strange yellow mushrooms of unknown power and use. There is a brook running through the glen, with a little lochan and on the side of one of the slopes is a small cosmic spiral of stones, overgrown with grass. According to local legend, girls who dance naked on the spiral will have their dearest wishes fulfilled... or perhaps that should read: if girls dance naked around the spiral, local shepherds will have their dearest wishes fulfilled?

Taken at Capitol Reef National Park in Utah. It was so beautiful here and yes it was hot, but after the heat of the tropics where I am from the dry heat was a nice change. We walked right up to the base of this large rock structure. It was amazing. I think this was called the Chimney, but I will recheck my map of the park and get back to you. This was the last National Park of 13 that we went to while in the United States and it was quite stunning. :)

Happy weekend to you all ;) Monday tomorrow for me grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr xx Car

Wednesday 19.08.2009 was a big day for cycling fans in Oslo. Lance Amstrong participated in the Oslo Grand Prix.

 

View large on black

 

About:

The Oslo Grand Prix was arranged for the first time. 1,5 hours through the streets of Oslo on a 1 kilometer criterium track. The city was packed with spectators and Thor Hushovd won a big victory.

 

On Twitter we spoke about meeting and shooting the event, so I got together with Oddne, Øystein and Stian and found a fine spot in one of the corners.

I have previously uploaded photos of Thor Hushovd and Lance Amstrong today Kurt-Asle Arvesen is in the pipeline :))

 

Check out this other shot of Kurt-Asle Arvesen

 

These guys ride incredible fast around the corner, panning my 40D on 1/15 sec shutterspeed was enough to blur everything out. The flash was then used to freeze the rider :))

Color, saturation and such was enhanced in Lightroom, a little retouching in Photoshop and that was it :))

As I continue to crawl my way back onto Flickr after my long break I share with you another view of the Prague Skyline looking toward the East Bank of one of our favourite cities in all of Europe.

 

This is as wide a view as I could get as I enjoyed the sunset from Strelecký Ostrov on the Vltava River looking towards the Old Town in Prague, Czech Republic. The first mention of this island was in the 12th century back when it was given the elegant name of Lawn.

 

If you haven't already done so, you can take a look at a closer view right here. This was one of my most enjoyable sunsets on our travels. It doesn't get much prettier than this for me. I will showing you one more view next.

I hope everyone has a terrific weekend ahead the summer is winding down although it's still like 40 degrees here in Chatham and hot. Thank heavens for pools and basements.++

Desde el camping del lago gutierrez sale un pequeño sendero que nos conduce a 3 lugares con indicación y 1 sin ella.

El camino mas fácil y corto nos lleva a la cascada Los Duendes.

El 2do, nos lleva por una picada (sendero montañoso) de aproximadamente 1 km (pero bastante empinado por algunos momentos), hasta el mirador de la foto.

El 3ro, nos lleva hasta una playa ubicada a unos 3 kilómetros aproximadamente, y también podemos seguir hasta el refugio Frey, el cual se encuentra a 10km, y para ir hay que avisar al guarda parques.

El 4to sendero, sin indicaciones, probablemente nos lleve hasta el cerro catedral.

I decided to grow some black (as described on the packet!) sunflowers to add to the garden this year & chose 2 different varieties. I sowed 6 seeds of each variety & they all germinated nicely & I planted them in the garden only to have them completely taken out by the slugs (greedy pigs)! So I repeated the excercise & ended up with 12 more sunflowers which I duly planted out. This is the sole survivor (slugs again) which is just about to bloom. I'll post another shot when it's blossomed fully, that's if I can get to it before the slugs do lol!
