bare feet into the earth
keeping faith as best as i can
spreading hope and healing energies from the core of my heart ~~
for just as federico garcía lorca wrote in his poem 'cancioncilla del primer beso’
"en la mañana verde, quería ser corazón.. corazón!"
in the green morning
i wanted to be heart
heart!
keep safe and be well !
i love you always, precious heart tribe

for 7DoS: I intended to use this old compass earlier in the week but didn't quite get organised enough. Now to catch up with everything else ...
I clipped this with four pegs in the back so I could photograph it closed like a compass. It looks nice in its relaxed state, too. Red tant, 6"

...You wanna give up 'cause it's dark
We're really not that far apart
So let your heart sweetheart be your compass when you’re lost
And you should follow it wherever it may go
When it’s all said and done, you can walk instead of run
‘Cause no matter what, you’ll never be alone...

Vintage compass on a vintage map.
My husband got me this lovely, palm-sized vintage compass at a ship salvage shop and antique dealer in Bangladesh.
The walnut-toned wood box has a metal label reading "Negretti & Zambra, as does the compass itself, both on the cover, and under the glass on the rose's face. The outside of the compass lid reads "Edward VII Compass King & Emporer 1908". The date, 1908, and the word, "London" is inscribed on the compass rose under the glass. The compass has a fob, as well as a sliding knob to lock the floating needle in place when not in use.
The poem, Robert Frost's "The Road Less Taken" has been engraved on brass-toned metal and appears to have been attached to the inside cover. This poem dates to 1915 and was not really considered a classic until the mid-1920s. I'm assuming that the inscription was added later, particularly because the font-styles are more modern.
My husband isn't sure if the compass actually dates to 1908. Negretti & Zambra manufactured compasses, telescopes, monocules, barameters and other scientific items during this time period, but I was unable to find a similar compass style during a fairly comprehensive Internet search.
If you know anything about vintage compasses, please leave a comment. No matter whether this is a reproduction or an actual antique, it is still a wonderful addition to my collection of cartography and geographic ephemera.
Well, here she is.
My wife doesn't like the model.
Calls it: "real estate broker wannabe SUV."
But: "with the gloss black roof, those rims and tires, you'll get away as a mid-manager in one of the gangs in the southern suburbs."
(The latter though, is better than being labelled as a real estate broker...)

HOW IT WORKS:
Click the compass for a menu that will let you select an avatar that the compass will point at when they are in the same region
if your target leaves the region the compass will spin since it cant find what you are tracking
menu buttons
'UUID' allows you to manually enter an avatar key found in their profile
'Nearby' will give you a list of all avatars in the current region you can choose from
'Stop' will clear the tracked avatar and the compass will point north instead.

This is a brass geologists compass. Geologists sometimes have to hike in remote areas so are limited on the equipment they can carry.
This compass not only does map reading but can also measure the angles, heights and directions of rock strata and fault lines. The other numbers and dials you see in the picture give the geologist the information they need to carry out the trigonometry calculus for these angles.
The camera was set to macro and I used a preset function to create a pin-hole effect.
Thanks for looking.

After I posted my Math Compass photo for Macro Mondays (theme was Rule), I felt that it could have been done much differently. Since I just can't wait until the end of the year for the possiblility of a MM theme of Redux, here it is...
This was taken at the the end of the dock of our favorite layover stop in New Providence, Bahamas. The colorful little bungalows at Compass Cay brighten our day, along with the gorgeous turquoise water of course! We've stopped here a few times now between flights as it's only minutes away from the airport, and they have great food and service.

A compass rose adorns the square in front of the Monument to the Discoveries. Made of black and red lioz limestone, it has a 50 m diameter, and contains a 14 m-wide planisphere decorated with vegetal elements, 5 small compass roses, 3 blowing faces personifying the wind, a mermaid, a mythical fish and Neptune with a trident and a trumpet, riding a marine beast. Dates, ships and caravels mark the main routes of the Portuguese expansion between the 15th and 16th centuries. The background consists of ‘open sea’ waves, a motif commonly used for the typical Portuguese cobblestone pavements. The compass rose was designed by architect Luís Cristino da Silva, and bestowed by the Republic of South Africa, which joined in the commemorations for the Infante. Inaugurated on 5 August 1960
