Aretha Franklin, 18 times GRAMMY winner, leaves no doubt with her performances why she was at the top of her profession. A legendary vocalist with career is spanning almost 60 years, died at 76 in 2018. She started her secular career at 18 and was touring until 2017. She did not look healthy at this concert from 2011. Overweight; just coming back from one of her frequent breaks, because of health issues, but her voice was still top notch. It did not matter what she was singing: Souls, R&B, Blues, rock, pop and of course gospel, she earned 'Respect'. This photo was taken during her 50 minutes encore after her regular concert. Opening night of Toronto Jazz Festival; Free tickets for first 15000 people; Of course; mayhem.
She was my favourite, fave of the black couple in the 'White House' and many citizens of the world regardless race or colour.

Stones on the Eiger Trail,Canton of Bern, Switzerland. The Wetterhorn and the Grosse Scheidegg.No. 7867.
Description
The Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau (the Ogre, Monk and Maiden) – the world famous trio of mountain peaks – is the impressive backdrop to the Jungfrau region and has attracted tourists and mountaineers to the Bernese Oberland since pioneering days. The Jungfrau Railway is no less impressive, while the northern flank of the Eiger, with its vertical drop of more than 1600 metres, has always attracted the world's best climbers.
Those with the courage and the desire to get just that little bit closer to the breathtaking Eiger North Face and tackle a superlative high alpine adventure can take the Jungfrau Railway to the station at Eigergletscher and set out on the Eiger Trail. Shortly after starting on this route, you'll find yourself right in front of the famous rock face itself, and above you to the right you'll notice the metal ladders that climbers to the Eiger-Rotstock Via Ferrata use to gain access. From here on, the trail runs for an hour along the foot of the Eiger North Face, sparkling with a beautiful view over the Wetterhorn and the Grosse Scheidegg.
Difficult sections are secured with ropes. If you have brought your binoculars, you'll be able to see the climbers up against the rock face. The train station sells postcards that show all the routes up this mountain. Towards the end of the tour the trail zigzags boldly down to Alpiglen train station.
"Short, medium-level hike through some of Switzerland's most iconic scenery.
Hike through the glorious high alpine pasture and lakeland scenery of the Grindelwald, pass a wonderful waterfall and come within touching distance of the Eiger's iconic north wall.
Easy public transport to both trailheads from Grindelwald make this stunning walk an easy excursion; hardier walkers have many options to extend."
"Aucun chemin n’approche autant de la célèbre face nord de l’Eiger: cette randonnée vous promet deux heures de frisson au plus haut niveau."
"Näher an die berühmte Eiger Nordwand führt kein Weg: Der Eiger Trail garantiert zwei Stunden Nervenkitzel auf höchstem Niveau."

I added a bokeh of love to my photo for Aretha Franklin, the Queen of Soul. I am saddened to hear of her passing today. She was one of the greatest singers of all time. She was the first woman to be inducted into the Rock and Roll hall of fame. Her music will live on forever in my heart.
Rest in peace, Aretha.

Aretha Louise Franklin 1942- 2018.
Last night we went to Sabrina Starke's performance in Tobacco Theater Amsterdam, together with our daughters. What a great artist. The new Aretha Franklin, but three times as swinging. Each of us had a seat, but we couldn't resist dancing. And taking pictures of course.
I can really recommend her music.

I always try to focus manually on the eyes. Because of the light circumstances, set the aperture most of the time wide open. Sabrina was really dancing and moving all night and that's why her eyes are slightly blurred. But is it disappointing ? The microphone and her hand are more in focus as a transducer of her vibrant voice. I love the old portraits of the first Jazz musicians and tried to achieve something similar.

you can lie to a child with a smiling face
tell me that colour ain't about race
you can cast the first stone you can break my bones
but you're never gonna break
never gonna break my...
faith
and hope ain’t yours to give
truth and liberty are mine to live
steal a crown from a king, break an angels wings
but you're never gonna break, never gonna break my faith

Aretha Franklin - A Natural Woman
Looking out on the morning rain (ah ooh)
I used to feel so uninspired (ah ooh)
And when I knew I had to face another day (ah ooh)
Lord, it made me feel so tired
Before the day I met you
Life was so unkind
And you're the key to my peace of mind
'Cause you make me feel, you make me feel
You make me feel like a natural woman (woman)
When my soul was in the lost and found
You came along to claim it
I didn't know just what was wrong with me
'Til your kiss helped me name it
Now I'm no longer doubtful of what I'm livin' for,
And if I make you happy I don't need to do more
'Cause you make me feel, you make me feel
You make me feel like a natural woman (woman)
Oh, baby, what you've done to me
(What you've done to me)
You make me feel so good inside
(Good inside)
And I just want to be
(Want to be)
Close to you
You make me feel so alive
You make me feel, you make me feel
You make me feel like a natural woman (woman)
You make me feel, you make me feel,
You make me feel like a natural woman (woman)
You make me feel, you make me feel
‘Cause a rose is still a rose
Baby, girl, you’re still a flower
He can’t leave you and then take you
Make you and then break you
Darlin’, you hold the power….
"A Rose Is Still a Rose" is a song recorded by American singer Aretha Franklin. It was written and produced by singer Lauryn Hill for Franklin's album of the same name (1998). The song focused on a motherly figure giving advice to a younger woman who keeps getting into bad relationships. Throughout "A Rose Is Still a Rose", Franklin advises that in spite of everything and despite the woman's "scorned roses and thorn crowns," the woman is "still a rose". Elements of the song "What I Am" by Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians were sung throughout the song by Hill herself.
Released as the album's lead single in 1998, the song became a surprise hit for Franklin, 40-plus years into her career, reaching number 26 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number-five on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, while also reaching the UK top 40. "A Rose Is Still a Rose" remains one of Franklin's most played songs from her later years and was her last top 40 hit. The single received nominations for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance and Best R&B Song at the 41st Annual Grammy Awards.
