A Book Apart

An example of social distancing before Covid19.
Airport lounges cary their own brand of depressing beauty. So many people assembled in those perfectly designed and luminous spaces, all of them lost in their own thoughts or devices, just waiting to serve out their sentence. Hell is a place of loneliness.

He waits for her to understand
But she won't understand at all
She waits all night for him to call
But he won't call anymore
He waits to hear her say
Forgive
But she just drops her pearl-black eyes
And prays to hear him say
I love you
But he tells no more lies
He waits for her to sympathize
But she won't sympathize at all
She waits all night to feel his kiss
But always wakes alone
He waits to hear her say
Forget
But she just hangs her head in pain
And prays to hear him say
No more
I'll never leave again
How did we get this far apart?
We used to be so close together
How did we get this far apart?
I thought this love would last forever
He waits for her to understand
But she won't understand at all
She waits all night for him to call
But we won't call
He waits to hear her say
Forgive
But she just drops her pearl-black eyes
And prays to hear him say
I love you
But he tells no more lies
How did we get this far apart?
We used to be so close together
How did we get this far apart?
I thought this love would last forever
Good morning everyone!! And a happy Monday to you. Tis foggy and raining here so I'm going back to a few weekends ago when the skies were blue, there was a gentle breeze on my face, and the sun graced us with her presence. My mind will rest here this morning! :-)

Smile on Saturday task is to create an enigma with an image that has no description. So be it! Pick this image apart to work out what it is.
🎶 MICHAEL SHULTE - FALLING APART
Lyrics
I am sleepless for a weekend
So I start to say goodbye
Say goodbye to all that we had
Say goodbye to what we lost
Oh, we don't talk
We're not enough
And the storms slowly arise
When the light turns
And the cold times arise
And we were running out, through the storms, through the night
We were running in the dark, we were following our hearts
And we would fall down, and we would slowly fall apart
We would slowly fall into the dark
The cold times arise
And the cold times arise
It is hard to let it all go
Let the past just disappear
Try to untie from an old life
But it always drags me down
Oh, we don't talk
We're not enough
And the storms slowly arise
When the light turns
And the cold times arise

Black-shouldered Kite (Elanus axillaris) juvenile
I spent some time this morning with Bronson, Belle and the chicks. This chick was on a branch about 15 feet below the branch where Bronson, and then Belle were with the other two chicks. Images of the rest of the family will follow in coming days.
A lovely little 'Common blue'.. 'Polyommatus icarus'.... butterfly.. feeding on what possibly could be.. a 'Lesser Burdock'.. 'Arctium minus'.. .. but I'm by no means sure.. it's just a hazard guess...
Have a great week ahead.. Thanks for looking..

But I'm only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I'm only human
And I crash and I break down
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
You build me up and then I fall apart
'Cause I'm only human...
Just a little human
I can take so much
'Til I've had enough
'Cause I'm only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I'm only human...
Hoewel we zaterdag 5 maart rond het middaguur weer vanuit de Alpenregio richting de lage landen zouden vertrekken, zou ondanks het korte tijdsbestek om foto's te maken deze dag toch erg succesvol worden. De dag werd begonnen in Niederaudorf waar we eerder die week ook al 's ochtends een kijkje kwamen nemen, helaas met een matig resultaat. Deze ochtend stond er echter wat op de planning en dat betroffen een aantal skitreinen welke allemaal rond hetzelfde tijdstip zouden moeten passeren. Toen we aankwamen op de stek stonden er reeds al een aantal fotografen die vanuit verschillende delen in Duitsland en Oostenrijk ook deze ochtend naar Niederaudorf waren getrokken. Niet lang nadat we alles klaar hadden staan kwam al de eerste klapper van de dag in de verte opdoemen, en dit betrof een trein van Lokomotion met "La Crema" op kop. Deze loc stond voor deze trip nog op het lijstje dus het was wel lekker om deze op het nippertje alsnog af te kunnen strepen.
Nadat Lokomotion de fotografen tevreden had achtergelaten kon nu het wachten beginnen op de eerste skitrein. We hadden inmiddels vernomen dat de eerste skitrein de Urlaubs-Express 1303 vanuit Münster naar St. Anton am Arlberg zou zijn welke werd voortgetrokken door de ietwat opvallende Smartrail 111 057. In principe zou ook het deel van de Urlaubs-Express 1383 vanuit Hamburg-Altona in deze trein moeten zitten, maar vanwege een defect en de bijkomende vertraging reden deze twee treinen apart en werden dus niet in Duitsland gecombineerd. Gelukkig reed het deel met de Smartrail 111 057 uit Münster wel op tijd en zat zelfs al binnen een kwartier op volgafstand van Lokomotion.
Ook kregen we te horen dat de Alpen-Express vanuit Nederland, welke ongeveer twintig minuten achter de Urlaubs-Express zat, helaas met een zwarte Taurus reed en niet met de gehoopte GfF 110 459. De GfF 110 459 had schijnbaar nog steeds geen toelating op Oostenrijkse bodem en moest dus ingewisseld worden voor deze veel saaiere tractie. Dit betekende dus dat de Urlaubs-Express uit Münster de enige echt leuke skitrein zou zijn die we hier in Niederaudorf konden fotograferen, maar gelukkig kwam Lokomotion nogmaals voorbij waardoor dit wel goed gecompenseerd werd.
Zoals gezegd hoefden we na de eerste passage van Lokomotion niet bijster lang te wachten, want zo'n 10 minuten nadat de eerste foto van de dag binnen was, sprong het sein weer op groen richting Kufstein. Enkele minuten later komt er een kort maar zeer bont treintje naar beneden gereden welke zich in het fraaiste ochtendlicht laat zien. Vervolgens is het een kwestie van fotograferen om deze fraaie bonte trein te vereeuwigen...
Het is 8:04 als de Smartrail 111 057 de vele fotografen passeert met op de bok een lachende machinist en aan de haak Urlaubs-Express 1303 vanuit Münster naar St. Anton am Arlberg. Nadat deze foto geslaagd was werd er ondanks de saaie tractie toch gewacht op de Alpen-Express. Echter had Lokomotion nog een verrassing in petto nog voordat de skitrein vanuit Nederland voorbij zou komen!
“In fact, the more I try to escape, the less I can breathe. The more I try to hold on, the less I can focus. Something’s leaving me. Parts of me. Everything falls apart.”
Inspired by Danielewski’s chef-d’oeuvre House of Leaves, Everything Falls Apart (EFA) gathers prolific producer Ross Tones also known as Throwing Snow (Houndstooth) and double bass player Otto Lindholm (Icarus, Gizeh) in an improvised and brilliant dialog.
Acting as a human FX on the initial acoustic sound, Ross Tones gives a third dimension to each impulse of the double bass, which in the same time influences back Lindholm's play. The whole process, from linear to circular, creates a profound musical loop, almost a larsen, that brings EFA's sound into music : a unique catharsis of unforgiven soundscapes and melodies.
Seen in the beach in the Westside Todnitzsee. (Spreewald, near Königs Wusterhausen, Germany). This little falling apart building (toilet room) might once have had glorious day. Now it’s a memory of the past, hidden in the woods.
Two worlds apart, every sunrise and dawn it is the same. We get lost in ourselves, we live in our comfort zone, it is our safe place. Spread your wings, try something new, the world we live in is a wonderful place with so much to see and do. It will be worth it, the smile on your face will be proof of it.
Suprematism is an early twentieth-century art movement focused on the fundamentals of geometry (circles, squares, rectangles, triangles). The term refers to a form of abstract art based upon "the supremacy of pure artistic expression" rather than on a visual or literal depiction of objects. It is entirely subjective and gives room to the artist to present what they think or perceive versus what they may see.
My homeland Northwest Germany is poor in mountains and rocks, so the only exception has been a very popular and even mystic place for centuries. We took advantage of the nice Summer weather to visit the Externsteine on Sunday.
The Externsteine belong to the Teutoburger Wald and are a natural outcropping of five sandstone pillars, the tallest of which is 37 mtr high and form a wall of several hundred metres in length, in a region that is otherwise largely devoid of rocks. The pillars have been modified and decorated by humans over the centuries. The place has been an important location for religion and spiritual activities throughout history. In warm evening light the beauty performs perfectly.
