Bones.
Marble skull, polished, smoothed
By children's hands, wandering,
Restless through Evensong,
Wondering perhaps, if it is real.
Bones stacked in the crypt,
Skulls racked, neat, forgotten
Remnants of war or plague.
Thigh bones piled,
Relics of men long dead.
Within the mound
The cranium of a distant Lord
Gives shelter to a rat with young,
Dragging beneath the capping stone,
Glittering tinfoil, incongruous
Amongst the bronze grave goods
Hidden, once, beneath the ground.
From the monument upon the wall
The gaping jaw gives out the foliage of resurrection,
A worm of corruption,
An encircling serpent of eternity:
Dry bones, issuing promise of rebirth.
Bones,
Waiting bones:
Shadows of our fears,
Symbols of our hopes.

The ossuary built into the exterior wall of St Peter's Mistall, near Tiefencastel, Switzerland. It was larger but I was restricted to shooting through some rather thin railings.
With crazy facial structures that bear an odd resemblence to the bones that make up the human pelvic girdle.
Leider hatte ich das Foto etwas zu dunkel belichtet und gerade nah dran war der Graureiher auch nicht... aber nach der Bearbeitung finde ich das Foto ganz spannend :-)

i had my little vacations this last weekend.. i went to this beach.. Ensenada Baja California, walking down the shore i found this huge statue of a man made of whale bones..
there was a cool story about the eye on the front made of little gems.. but i dont remember it >.<
this is my first picture in a long time.. i missed flickr a lot these times
...when you feel the bone structure of the landscape - the loneliness of it, the dead feeling of winter. something waits beneath it, the whole story doesn't show...

Happy Slider Sunday! Saturday morning started with a -11F sunrise and the day didn't get any better. Within a few hours the skies clouded over again and by the afternoon another snowstorm arrived. Three exposure HDR processed with Nik HDR Efex Pro 2
I've used this song before on another photo, but hey... an excellent song to go with this photo I think.
Mishka - "Above The Bones"
"Oh let us rise above the bones, let us remember the memories..."

and Yet another shot of these amazing roots. i don't know if it's something usually accepted on the Olympic peninsula, but a kind lady told me that all these dead trees on the beach are usually called "bones". they perfectly fit the description to be honest, as a lot of them are organic and white in a bizarre way. Thousand of them in places. Rialto Beach is filled with these.
A iconic shot of Whitby. This Blue Whale jaw bone goes back to the days when Whitby was a major Whaling Port.
Ground up bone makes a great starter for many of Chlorophina's special potions.

After I got back home from taking photographs in Memorial Park, I finished sanding and polishing one of the chunks of dinosaur bone I received from Jim, in the trade I made in Provo, Utah, recently. This is a really nice and colorful example of gem-bone.

Chilly wintertime explorations over in the Hatchie National Wildlife Refuge from a couple of years ago. So somewhere under I-40 on a two-track that lead to a pond/small lake and some creeks. I poked around in the woods and found the remnants of what was likely a deer skeleton.
It's a strange title for a bench seat in the setting sun, but it comes from master storyteller Mark Knopfler on his album "Tracker" (2015). Long before the challenges of 2020, this song about a struggling boxer had become a metaphor to me of how we deal with the pain of hurt and failure.
So this year we all feel like we've gone 15 rounds with a heavyweight champion and we have the bruises to show for it. What do we do, hide in a corner and wish it all away? Or do we take the stoic approach, and carry our broken bones home to mend on ice?
As the sun sets on 2020, we won't lament its passing, BUT there are no guarantees we won't get knocked around again next year. In fact there are no more guarantees in life. Period. So perhaps Mark Knopfler's advice (which sounds a little harsh) is really good medicine for the soul. "Those broken bones, you pick 'em up and carry 'em, broken bones, you carry 'em home."
Here is the song in full:
"She likes a man with a broken nose
Lucky for me, I suppose
Shots coming in like the monthly bills
Soon they'll be saying I'm over the hill
Well the bell goes clang and you're on your own
You take your medicine and go home
You take it like a man, on the chin
And you don't make a fuss when the towel comes in
Now let me go home, got to lay in ice
And I don't want to hear no more advice
Just give me my clothes
Get me out of this place
How many more stitches in my face?
Those broken bones, you pick 'em up and carry 'em
Broken bones, you carry 'em home
Broken bones, you pick 'em up and carry 'em
Broken bones, you carry 'em home
He had the punch lines, I was the joke
Every shot felt like something broke
It was all much more than a man should stand
And I finally went down to a big right hand
Now let me go home, got to lay in ice
And I don't want to hear no more advice
Just give me my clothes
Get me out of this place
How many more stitches in my face?
Those broken bones, you pick 'em up and carry 'em
Broken bones, you carry 'em home
Broken bones, you pick 'em up and carry 'em
Broken bones, you carry 'em home
Broken bones, you pick 'em up and carry 'em
Broken bones, you carry 'em home
Broken bones, you pick 'em up and carry 'em
Broken bones, you carry 'em home"
Mark Knopfler's version, "Broken Bones":
