- Autumn is coming ...
- ¿Qué?
- Que el otoño se acerca ...
- Ah, y dime, allá donde tú vives, ¿el otoño es más hermoso que aquí? ¿es parecido?
- El otoño es un estado, una forma de ver el mundo. Es un color, una luz, una emoción. El otoño es nostalgia, es melancolía. El otoño es mirar llover tras la ventana, es escuchar el crujir de las hojas bajo tus pies, es sentir el frío de la mañana que te rocía la cara. El otoño es un comienzo, una ilusión, es despojarse del ruido del verano y encogerse en el silencio para crecer ... el otoño es un estado, mi vida, y es lo bello que tú quieras que sea.

- ¿Me abrazas?
- ¿Tienes frío?
- No, es que comencé a otoñarme ..
Hoy ha comenzado oficialmente el otoño. Pero yo, yo llevo otoñándome desde el mes de Diciembre. Ya lo sabe él ... siempre me llega con tres estaciones de retraso.
Feliz Otoño y que el bosque os acompañe !!!
Pulsa "L" si te atreves, se ve mucho mejor.

The rain is in the middle, hail to the right and tornadoes would form to the far right (none coming). We learned a lot about the composition of a storm.

Viñales is a small town and municipality in the north-central Pinar del Río Province of Cuba. The municipality is dominated by low mountain ranges of the Cordillera de Guaniguanico such as Sierra de los Órganos. Typical outcrops known as mogotes complete the karstic character of the landscape. This is a small farm near Vinales.
The eastbound Empire Builder was a little late on this morning, which ensured a properly lit scene as they prepare to head into the Commercial Yard at St. Anthony.
Thought I’d stay in Yorkshire on my Virtual British Road Trip, and head for the coast. Oh I can just smell the sea air and taste those fish and chips .... 🎶”Coming Home” Show of Hands youtu.be/uggR4cL7j8Y
And the cold too. Stay warm this week if you are in Chicago.
This concludes the round of snow. Half done with the album.
Terrific Tuesday to you.

Sunday afternoon at the Kunstmuseum. “It’s a madhouse,” sighs the lady at the ticket check. Compared to the cheerful crowd she has to check in, her grey-blue uniform looks tired. Young and old have dressed up fashionably for the exhibition about Dior.
Uniforms should express authority, but how neutral do they have to be? “High time to put a good, preferably younger fashion designer in charge,” says an inner voice. A museum that - after many shows of famous designers - has developed into an epicenter of haute couture should surely have more courage. How else do you express the bond with ‘fashion’? A word that unites such a myriad of meanings – from cut to shape, from mannerism to creation – that everyone can identify with it.
LEFT OR RIGHT
In any case, at the top of the central stairs, a choice has to be made. Right to the ‘New Look’ by Dior – left to the ‘Night Animals’ by Spilliaert and Braeckman. We go left because that's why we came. In the dim silence that falls on us like a downy blanket, we focus our eyes on the introductory text. And on the image of a man descending a staircase in the semi-darkness. To be precise, we only see half a man. His face is barely visible, and his clothing reveals nothing special. Could that be a harbinger of what awaits us? Certainly.
Stairs are powerful metaphors. Up, down: life has its peaks and valleys. Platinum-blonde Hollywood stars made a great show of descending a staircase. A practice that Marcel Duchamp slyly commented on with 'Nu descendant un escalier'. In this sensational painting from 1912, a character strides down like an avalanche of cubist fragments. Naked? Down the stairs? The audience was stunned, moved by laughter and anger.
Admittedly, there was movement in the image. Or rather, that was suggested very nicely. Or was it a pile of firewood that came crashing down? The cartoons in the newspaper did not mince their words. The term ‘anti-art’ was used. Isn’t Braeckman’s intensification of the unfathomable also just a provocation? Yes, there is something in that… some photos are so black that you can only guess what you see.

Sailing past Cerberus. Going back back home and perhaps some fish n chips. Something I'll have to take a rain check on until perhaps the summer!
Glacier National Park, Montana. This is on the Highline Trail which starts at Logan Pass and follows along the Continental Divide also know as the Garden Wall. At this location we are coming up to Haystack Pass with a beautiful view of Haystack Butte just outside this shot.
The groin, or entrance to the river and marina was busy with various forms of water craft coming home, perhaps understanding that the storm, whilst still not imminent, wasn't too far away. I'm sure you have to have be careful of all the various distractions on the water. The light had changed too, becoming duller.
This was one of those magical evenings where everything came together. We had some colorful clouds at sunset, some nice wave action along with some beautiful light. What a wonderful show it was!
Fall is coming. Leaves have been falling here for a couple of weeks now - the middle of August! Not a lot... there is still a lot of great, lush greenery around - and sunshine, and flowers, and warm weather, but it's coming. Fall is coming.
A hot day in our back garden and a white-plumed honeyeater heads towards our birdbath for a cooling drink.
