Abbiamo perso anche questo crepuscolo.
Nessuno ci ha visto stasera mano nella mano
mentre la notte azzurra cadeva sul mondo.
Ho visto dalla mia finestra
la festa del tramonto sui monti lontani.
A volte, come una moneta
mi si accendeva un pezzo di sole tra le mani.
Io ti ricordavo con l'anima oppressa
da quella tristezza che tu mi conosci.
Dove eri allora?
Tra quali genti?
Dicendo quali parole?
Perchè mi investirà tutto l'amore di colpo
quando mi sento triste e ti sento lontana?
E' caduto il libro che sempre si prende al crepuscolo
e come cane ferito il mantello mi si è accucciato tra i piedi.
Sempre, sempre ti allontani la sera
e vai dove il crepuscolo corre cancellando statue.
Pablo Neruda

Úbeda, Jaén (Spain).
ENGLISH
Real Street, one of the main streets of the old town of Úbeda. Photo treated with Artizen HDR to clarify the heavy shadows.
***
Úbeda (IPA: ['uβeða]) is a town in the province of Jaén in Spain's autonomous community of Andalusia. It had about 36,000 inhabitants in 2003. It is best known for its association with the writer Antonio Muñoz Molina and the singer Joaquín Sabina. Despite opposition from the ICOMOS, UNESCO declared its Renaissance monuments a World Heritage Site in a cultural unity with Baeza in 2003.
The town lends its name to a common figure of speech in Spanish, andar por los cerros de Úbeda (literally 'to walk around the hills of Úbeda'), meaning 'to go off at a tangent'.

Úbeda es una ciudad de la provincia de Jaén en Andalucía (España). Capital de la fértil comarca jienense de La Loma. La ciudad está declarada Patrimonio Cultural de la Humanidad por la UNESCO desde el 3 de julio de 2003, junto con la ciudad de Baeza, debido a la conservación de sus buenos y numerosos edificios renacentistas así como todo su singular entorno urbanístico.
L'eruzione più lunga a memoria storica è quella del luglio 1614 che durò ben dieci anni ed emise oltre un miliardo di metri cubi di lava coprendo 21 chilometri quadrati di superficie sul versante settentrionale del vulcano.
Le colate ebbero origine a quota 2550 e presentarono la caratteristica particolare di ingrottarsi ed emergere poi molto più a valle fino alla quota più bassa di 975 m.s.l.m. , al di sopra comunque dei centri abitati.
Lo svuotamento dei condotti di ingrottamento originò tutta una serie di grotte laviche oggi visitabili come la Grotta del Gelo e la Grotta dei Lamponi.

*History: This town was founded in 1284 by the English King, Edward I, who was also had the title of Duke of Aquitaine. It is an example of an almost completely preserved bastides, which were fortified towns, built in the areas disputed by England and France in the 12th century. This attractive and peaceful village has a turbulent and violent history at the hands of various protagonists.

The Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe, also known as the Holocaust Memorial, is a memorial in Berlin to the Jewish victims of the Holocaust.
It consists of a 19,000 square meter (4.7 acre) site covered with 2,711 concrete slabs or "stelae", arranged in a grid pattern on a sloping field.
Part religious observance, part cultural education and part kiddie entertainment, the kopeng sidekarya dance is performed only by a trained few. In this performance for the village's ngeroras celebration, the dance drama was performed by two male dancers, alternating roles with different masks. Combining morality tales and mundane jokes, the performers know how to rivet and engage the crowd. Interestingly, this show was performed while the family members were still going about their processional chores. Each one has a role to fulfill.

Thanks to _Rebekka and all the others who have tried this shot. I was trying to tie the technique in with a theme for a competition entitled 'Fall' (open to interpretation). The biblical 'Fall' of man from the Garden of Eden, and Newton's discovery of gravity. The photo is an attempt to interpret the conflict between religion and science, mmm.
The meped procession of the ngusabe celebration of Sukawati is a spectacle different from most other temple ceremonies in Bali for the participants, boys, girls, young ladies and women wear their classical fineries.
Dressed in heavily painted prada brocade strips wound tightly around their bodies, decked in heavy gold leaf and flower headresses (they really are heavy!) and adorned in their finest traditional jewelry, the girls are like dolls. They are however expected to walk the hot 3km asphalt route barefooted. They are as stoic as they appear here.

My close friends in Bali took me to their village in Karengasem. Their neighbors just had a cremation and the day I came was the ngeroras ceremony. The celebration was replete with long processions and dramatic offerings, and performances involving the topeng (mask), the wayang (shadow puppet) and the rejang dewa. The latter is a dance by pre-pubescent girls in these lavishly tall homemade coconut leaf headresses called gelung rejang. Stretching from morning to midnight, the ceremony is a showcase of cultural purity. The village actually welcomed me fully and did not mind that there was one Filipino, albeit in Balinese attire, taking pictures as if there was no tomorrow.

Είπε, και την ευκή του επάκουσεν ο Απόλλωνας ο Φοίβος,
κι απo την κορφή του Ολύμπου εχύθηκε θυμό γεμάτος, κι είχε
δοξάρι και κλειστό στις πλάτες του περάσει σαϊτολόγο'
κι αντιβροντούσαν οι σαγίτες του στις πλάτες, μανιασμένος
καθώς τραβούσε· και κατέβαινε σαν τη νυχτιά τη μαύρη.
Κάθισε αλάργα απo τα πλεούμενα κι ευτύς σαγίτα ρίχνει,
και το ασημένιο του αντιδόνησε τρομαχτικά δοξάρι.
(ΟΜΗΡΟΥ ΙΛΙΑΣ )
Thus as he pray'd, his pray'r Apollo heard:
Along Olympus' heights he pass'd, his heart
Burning with wrath; behind his shoulders hung
His bow, and ample quiver; at his back
Rattled the fateful arrows as he mov'd;
Like the night-cloud he pass'd, and from afar
He bent against the ships, and sped the bolt;
And fierce and deadly twang'd the silver bow.
(HOMER'S ILIAD)

Drats! How did I miss this??? Unforgivable!!! The bad thing is that it's not a common species around here, it's only the second time I spotted one in 4 years (here is the other one) and I managed to make a mess of all my captures that day...

I think kids by their very innocent nature will play with fire when first getting hold of matches. Call it excitement with sparks. Must be the same with me when tinkering with the camera. So here's me playing with the shutter and overblowing the light. Now let's see if I will overgrow the habit...

“...Grito a grito, peito a peito,
’repontemo’ até o rodeio
este matreiro teimoso
que refugou na picada,
de ‘a cavalo’ não refugo,
embora o tempo desabe
e o mais matreiro já sabe
que me gusta paleteada...”

Montserrat, Barcelona (Spain).
ENGLISH
The mountain of Montserrat is a massif that towers over the right bank of the Llobregat River. This massif is one of the highest and rockiest sections in the Prelitoral Catalana mountain chain. The Monastery of Montserrat perches 725 metres above sea level, whilst, at an altitude of 1,236 metres, Sant Jeroni is the highest point in the massif.
Soaring up abruptly from the Llobregat River, these mountains appear higher than they really are. Nor are there any other mountains nearby that can compete with Montserrat in terms of altitude, so that the massif stands out even more in its solitary splendour.
The mountain is around 10 kilometres long and 5 wide, with a perimeter of some 25 kilometres. All in all, Montserrat covers an area of 45 square kilometres.
The silhouette of the massif calls to mind the toothed blade of a saw, and this explains its name, for Montserrat means “serrated or saw-toothed mountain”.

CASTELLANO
La montaña de Montserrat, situada a la derecha del río Llobregat, es uno de los conjuntos más altos y abruptos de la Sierra Prelitoral Catalana. El monasterio está situado a 725 m de altura sobre el nivel del mar, y San Jerónimo, a 1.236 m, es la cima más alta.
El conjunto de la montaña parece más alto porque se levanta bruscamente desde el río Llobregat hasta la cima. Tampoco hay ninguna montaña próxima que pueda competir en altura, de manera que queda aislada en este sector.
Mide unos diez kilómetros de longitud y unos cinco de ancho, con un perímetro de unos 25 kilómetros. La montaña, en su conjunto, tiene 45 kilómetros cuadrados de superficie.
Su silueta recuerda la hoja dentada de una sierra. Esto explica su nombre: Montserrat quiere decir ‘montaña serrada’.
