- Matthias! Quel bon vent vous amène? Vous me manquiez, savez-vous?
- C'est vrai?
- Bien sûr, vous êtes toujours mon facteur-tromboniste chouchou...Ca ne s'oublie jamais!
Alors que me vaut le plaisir de votre visite?
- Eh bien justement, je...je suis porteur d'une lettre.
- Une lettre? De qui? De Stephan?
- Eh bien disons que...oui...et non.
- Oui et non? Euh...vous pourriez être plus précis?
- Lisez, je crois que ce sera mieux.
- Vous m'intriguez mais d'accord. C'est curieux, il y a deux écritures différentes...
" Ma chère Françoise,
Mon auteure adorée..."
Non...je rêve!!! Mais comment c'est possible? Ne me dites pas que le fantôme a migré en Suisse!
- Si! En fait, c'est la faute de Stephan. Il a tellement aimé se produire en 1954 qu'il a repris la formule magique pour rappeler Mr de Saillant auprès de lui. Et vous connaissez l'empire que peut avoir ce fantôme par moment. Il l'a persuadé de monter un festival en son honneur!
- Oh mon Dieu! Ne me dites pas que Stephan a accepté!
- Eh bien...si! Et nous aussi.
- Noooooooooooon!
- Siiiiiiiiiiiii...mais c'est pour deux dates et c'est sans danger, je vous rassure.
- Sans danger dites-vous?
Mais est-ce que Stephan a conscience que ça peut provoquer des interférences spacio-temporelo-galactiques?
Sans compter que si le fantôme déteint sur lui et lui sur le fantôme...on ne saura bientôt plus qui est qui. Vous imaginez?
- Vous êtes sûre?
- Si je vous le dis...Oooooooh mais comment vais-je faire pour le récupérer à présent? J'aurais dû me douter depuis quinze jours qu'il était silencieux après son coup de blues, qu'il ne resterait pas sage chez lui à Beauregard. A quand remonte sa présence en Suisse?
- Laissez-moi réfléchir...nous avons eu une lune bleue le 7...ça doit correspondre à son arrivée. Parce que Stephan m'a téléphoné la veille pour me dire qu'il avait une idée abracadabrante et que je me tienne prêt à convoquer la fanfare. J'ai trouvé ça un peu bizarre mais je n'ai pas bataillé. Stephan est du genre créatif excentrique, alors je me suis dit qu'il devait avoir trouvé un moyen...
- Je vois. Ce qui veut dire que François lui a raconté notre entretien. Pétard, ayez une intimité avec un fantôme, et il va jouer derechef les concierges en Suisse. Non mais, franchement, à qui se fier de nos jours?
- Mais, c'est pour la bonne cause, Françoise! Un festival fantôme, c'est toujours ça de pris pour la culture et la musique!
- Certes, je suis bien d'accord avec vous! Mais avec François de Saillant à la baguette et à l'origine du projet, j'ai peur.
- Pourtant le programme est des plus alléchant, je vous assure.
Nous serons 1200 artistes, de quoi monter une belle chorale, non?
Et tout est sur le thème marin.
- Comme de juste! Je vais finir par croire que c'est François qui a mis ça en tête à votre compère musicien.
- C'est fort possible! Vous savez qu'ils se sont vus à l'automne, alors je ne sais pas ce qu'ils se sont dit à cette occasion mais...c'est depuis octobre que Stephan nous parle de tournée en bateau.
- Oh misère...C'est encore pire que ce que je pensais! Je comprends mieux pourquoi il a monté cette usine à gaz.
- En tout cas, il me charge d'un message musical pour vous convaincre du bien-fondé de sa démarche. Enregistré avec la même équipe que chez Garcimore. Ils se sont tellement amusés avec Rossini qu'ils ont récidivé. Et comme m'a dit Stephan, dans le thème imposé:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Bvij4TVdEY
- Il ne manquait plus que ce genre de fantaisie à son répertoire! Non mais, il ne compte pas chanter ça lors du festival?
- Et pourquoi pas? Avec 1200 choristes derrière, ça devrait le faire pas mal, non?
- Mais bien sûr...
www.youtube.com/watch?v=tp9kHYoFviU
Et vous comptez vous produire quand?
- Le 27 février, pourquoi?
- Le 27 février? C'est une blague! Vous savez que cette date a déjà provoqué des effets plus que particuliers il y a deux ans. Chez moi il y a eu un coucher de soleil plus qu'étrange. Et chez vous, le même soir...je ne sais pas ce que vous lui aviez fait boire ou fumer mais alors...Stephan s'était plus que lâché, ce soir-là.
- Ouuuuuuuups! J'avais pas du tout réalisé.Heuuuuuuuuu...oui c'est vrai que c'était le même soir où il...ah oui...mais...justement!
- Justement quoi?
- Stephan a dit que cette date nous porterait sûrement bonheur! Il n'y a pas de hasard, vous le savez bien!
- Oui, mais là, ça fait quand même beaucoup en terme de synchronicités, vous ne croyez pas? D'abord le fantôme s'invite chez Stephan. Je n'ai même pas compris comment ni pourquoi. Ensuite, il lui donne l'idée du thème marin. Je n'en savais même rien, en plus c'est mon thème d'expo d'élèves depuis 2020, mais passons. Après, le même fantôme revient me voir pour des beignets puis perturber le conte de Nounou Rose et récupérer de quoi voyager dans le temps. Il me fait la grande scène de la déprime du début d'année 2021 et qu'est-ce que j'apprends aujourd'hui? Qu'il se fait tailler un festival sur mesure en Suisse, à une date ô combien mémorable à plus d'un titre. Saperlipopette!
- Ah mais c'est aussi François de Saillant qui a décidé la date.
Il a dit...attendez que je me rappelle...que ce serait "le mariage des complémentaires." L'eau et le feu, vous voyez?
- Et le yin et le yang aussi...non mais qu'est-ce qu'il ne faut pas entendre!!!
-Au contraire, il faudra nous écouter avec attention. Stephan et François y tiennent. D'ailleurs pour vous convaincre, ils ont joué de concert ce petit morceau, spécialement à votre intention...Avec quelques arrangements. Ils ont dit que vous comprendriez l'allusion:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9J_8JXisj4
- Les voyous! Ah ils n'en loupent pas une, décidément!
Bon, Matthias, si l'affaire est sérieuse, ça veut dire qu'il va falloir vous chauffer les uns comme les autres pour vous préparer à ce grand évènement.
Sinon, le jour J, vous serez dans la tension maximum. Et je n'ai pas envie de vous voir débarquer chez moi, en grande panique comme à l'automne 2019.
Donc, je vais vous passer un petit entraînement physique à partager avec la fanfare. C'est pas plus compliqué que la dernière fois et c'est sans les haches et avec plus de filles.
Ca devrait vous motiver, non?
- Ah c'est sûr que s'il y a des filles...
- De 6.30 à 8 minutes, c'est votre entraînement. Mais vous pourrez faire le reste avec vos copines et compagnes.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzB6fUpiM7k
- Oh merci! C'est encore plus détaillé que la dernière fois! Je sens que les gars vont apprécier. Et en plus les costumes, vous avez vu? Ils sont bleus et oranges. Complémentaires! Quand je vous dis qu'il n'y a pas de hasard...
- Ah oui...vous avez raison. Et le fond bleu devrait plaire à...Non, mieux ne vaut ne pas lui montrer ça. Après, je vais encore me faire charrier et me faire traiter de sorcière. Déjà que ma réputation est passablement écornée en la matière. Donc gardez ça pour vous! Et faites des étirements avant. Ca évitera les déplacements de vertèbres.
- D'accord, c'est promis!
Ah! Dernière chose! François de Saillant vous fait dire qu'il a de nouvelles idées pour le spectacle de Stephan...un truc de ce genre-là:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7aWIninqyA
- Ah! Bravo! Si je comprends bien, il n'est pas prêt de rentrer chez lui en 1840. Il a trouvé plus réjouissant à faire!
- En même temps, c'est stimulant pour nous tous, vous ne trouvez pas?
- Je le reconnais. Il a été ma muse durant tellement d'années que je peux bien vous le prêter un moment. Mais vous me le rendrez en bon état, d'accord?
Je n'en ai pas de rechange.
- Je vous le promets.
Bon ben, je vous laisse lire tranquille votre lettre. Maintenant vous savez l'essentiel! On se revoit au festival?
- Vu le contexte, vu que ça concerne que la confédération et vu qu'il n'aura pas lieu, ça me paraît difficile mais...embrassez très fort vos camarades pour moi et dites-leur que je vous enverrai pour faire une belle cagnotte, des énergies elfiques positives. J'ai cru comprendre qu'elles marchaient plutôt bien, même à grande distance, pas vrai?
Matthias a rougi, plein de confusion, avant de s'éclipser dans un nuage de confettis.
Un facteur musicien décidément pas ordinaire et toujours aussi obligeant.
Et aujourd'hui, l'ambassadeur de la culture suisse:

Merci, Matthias!
Comments always appreciated, as long as you keep it clean - I love to hear your feedback! xx
My dear friend Arrabella came for a visit and we had a night out on Prince's Avenue. It was a great night too - we got chatting to a couple who told us about a new venue that was open, and we went to check it out - and I ended up doing karaoke in there!
In Pave.
Comments welcomed, but, not necessary...
I hope to get to all my contacts soon!
Some anxiety issues going on with me right now!
Thanks in advance for understanding! ♥

Всички кадри са суук, само преоразмерени и са без никакви претенции. :) В пещерата е абсолютно забранено да се снима със светка, защото /само в нея/ там живее едно насекомо наречено Леденик или Светломраз. На дневна светлина умира, светкавицата го убива веднага. Това обяснява и 5000-ното ми ИСО. :) Докоснах образувания по-стари от мамутите...нямам думи да опиша преживяването.

The temperature in the cave varies from – 7° C to 15° C (in the winter in the Antechamber) and to 8° C in the inner parts. The moisture of the air is 92 %.
The animal variety can not be rich in these conditions: bats, cave beetles, wood lice, little spiders. You can see only here the insect “Ledenikus” or “Lighthater”. You cannot see many plants here, just lichen and moss. More info at - www.mimipet.com/bulgaria-info/caves/ledenika-cave.html

Bengali Ladies
This is one of my best time to capture such a ancient ritual with beautiful ladies from Bengal.
This was captured during the last day of Durga Puja festival.
For Bengali women, this last ritual — Sindoor Khela or Sindoor Utsav — holds much significance. “The sindoor ( red vermilion ) is a symbol of married life. We first apply it on the idol of Goddess Durga on Vijayadashami and then on other Bengali women while wishing them a happy married life and good luck.
Goddess Durga is the mother of the universe and believed to be the power behind the work of creation, preservation, and destruction of the world. Since time immemorial she has been worshipped as the supreme power of the Supreme Being and has been mentioned in many scriptures .
What is Bijoya Dasami ??
Bijoya Dasami is the last day of celebrations of Durga Puja Festival.
Godess Durga departs for her own house in the mountains of the Himalayas. The pandals (big tents) are deserted and people move around aimlessly, looking crestfallen - even, the shine on the faces of the clay idols appear dull The rituals of this day are the darpan (mirror) bisarjan (giving it to the river) followed by the sindoor utsav. The sindoor utsav is for the married women. Sindoor (red vermillion powder) is an auspicious item for any Bengali married woman - it is normally applied on the 'sinthee' (the parting of the hair on the forehead). In the sindoor utsav, these women apply sindoor on the sinthee of the Godess Durga and then on the sinthees of all women assembled. While performing this ritual, each and everyone sends a silent prayer to God Almighty to bless them so that this mark of happiness is never obliterated and remains a faithful companion until the dying day! (Application of sindoor ceases from the instant a woman becomes a widow - hence, this silent prayer.)
After the sindoor utsav, the idols are loaded on to suitable vehicles and taken to the immersion spot in a procession. On the banks of the river or lake or pond, the youngsters carry out aarati and burn firecrackers to extend the celebrations as long as possible. But, all good things have to come to an end! Hence, after immersion, the people return to the empty pandal and exchange greetings - the younger do 'pronams' of their elders by stooping down and touching their feet. The elders return the gesture by blessing the younger ones. Those of the same age group do 'kola- kuli'- they hug and embrace each other. The last item on the agenda is the exchange of sweets.
Enjoy the moment !!!!

Thanks Jenny !!!

Comment by eyewrisz (Iris):
this image shows warmth and longing too
wanting freedom to fly like birds do

Just throwing this one up there... I should wait for my film images, but, eh... it's always hard to stop thinking about how beautiful Proxy Falls is.
In this case, it was also very wet. I had an out-of-town friend visit this weekend, and I took him to some familiar places: the food carts, Powell's, Voodoo Doughnuts, Broder's, etc. There was also an educational walk down Hawthorne that included a game that I like to call "Identify the Hipster". We only had a day to really "get out", and it was Saturday... so instead of the Gorge (too crowded for my tastes on the weekend), we made the drive down to Proxy.
And, wow. Did we ever get drenched. And hailed on! Even taking umbrellas didn't help a whole lot (don't get on my case too much for the umbrellas... I was trying to protect the gear in some small way). I waded up to my knees across the bottom of the falls, to reach this almost spray-free area on the right, where I perched for the better part of an hour. By the time I came down, I couldn't feel my fingers. And when I reached my friend again (he had waited patiently at the base), I found him shivering uncontrollably.
And yet, he says the experience did not dissuade him from considering a move out here. Heh.
Anyway. It's been a great weekend, and I hope you all enjoyed yours!

Spring is coming here on the prairies! There are signs of it's approach all over, regardless of the falling snow (we got a couple of centimeters last night). One of the signs is the type of clouds we can see. These are definitely not winter clouds! It was such a cool show during sunset on Saturday. I'm so glad I was able to watch it!!

Photographer's Comment
The Cupid in My Dream It is not in the oil of your selfish desire where I dip my arrow, It’s in the pain you have caused. Is with my whisper that I show you the soul of your life’s witness, the one to find grace in your moves, and multiply the verses of your story. My arrow is the dagger that tears you when you realize that you have found it because you feel it now that is taken away. Let me blow you a final whisper: “Love is everything around you”, Everything you had, have or will, when you finally realize that you are not a miracle and he is not a saint, stop darkening your life with the veil of perfection. Your hate was just a show. Sadness but the mirror of your soul longing for my whisper. Now that you have it again, go back and say “Sorry”. Don’t let insanity cover the cost of the stain that could have been love. Draw the line on the edge of his lips and then cross it, be stronger than weeping alone. Written by my Love. From the project "Boys will be Boys"

I discovered this old stone building so I explored it.
There was a lift and circular stairway going down to lower level. I could not get down the stairway it was dark and seemed blocked at the bottom.

Croatia's first National park (Plitvice Lake) established in 1949 covers 296.85 km2 of breathtaking natural splendor. The park was inscribed on the UNESCO's World Heritage List in 1979, in recognition of its "outstanding natural beauty and undisturbed production of travertine (tufa) through chemical and biological action". The park represents a phenomenon of karst hydrography.
The park harbours a grand collection of waterfalls, gallery of lakes, forest and diversity of animal life. The lakes are renowned for their distinctive colors, ranging from azure to green, grey or blue. The colors change constantly depending on the quantity of minerals or organisms in the water and the angle of sunlight. The sixteen lakes which are formed by natural dams of travertine are separated into upper and lower lakes. About eight km of pathways and wooden walking trails around lakes are accessible to visitors. Trails are descending from an altitude of 636m to 503m above sea level.
Sky on fire.
Après un dîner copieux, sur la route du retour, nous nous sommes arrêtés prendre quelques photos. Contrairement à ce dont ça a l'air, il ne s'agit pas d'usines, mais de simples maisons.

Hope someone at Flickr will fix the commenting problem that has been going on for days now! Unfortunately, with the US Thanksgiving holiday, the issue won't be fixed anytime soon.
Today, 22 November 2018, is Thanksgiving Day for Americans. I had not intended posting any photos this morning, but when I realized that the next few photos to upload from our Ontario and Quebec trip were of Wild Turkeys, I thought it appropriate to edit and post some this morning. Happy Thanksgiving to all Americans, wherever you happen to be living at the moment.
9 Fun Facts about Turkeys:
www.audubon.org/news/9-fun-facts-about-turkeys
Day 4 of our holiday was 10 May 2018. We had a ridiiculously early start to the day, as we had been told that American Woodcocks (Scolopax minor) tend to gather in and around the hotel parking lot. That information was just too good to ignore, so I think it was sometime after 4:00 am that we were out there, searching. As it turned out, in vain, though we did hear two individuals vocalizing in the dark bushes across the road. The American Woodcock is "a small chunky shorebird species found primarily in the eastern half of North America. Woodcocks spend most of their time on the ground in brushy, young-forest habitats, where the birds' brown, black, and gray plumage provides excellent camouflage." From Wikipedia.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_woodcock
This last day was spent at Pt Pelee, walking a few trails including at The Tip again. We also drove to The Onion Fields, just north of Pt Pelee, between Hillman Marsh and Pt Pelee, where we had a great sighting - a very, very distant male Snowy Owl, sitting way out in a field, next to a white post!! Awful photos, but will eventually post one of them, just for the record. I have added Anne B's ebird list for Day 4 in a comment box below. As always, I did not manage to see every species, but was happy to see at least some of them!
The next morning, 11 May, we had to do the very long drive from Pelee to Toronto, where we caught a plane to Quebec City, arriving there at 2:45 pm. From there, we had a long drive east to reach the small village of Tadoussac on the St. Lawrence Seaway. There, we would be staying for a week at the summer 'cabin' of one of our group of friends.
For a more detailed account of our trip east, see www.flickr.com/photos/annkelliott/45038233955/in/datepost...
