Compilation of images from Ranthambore Tiger Preserve in Rajasthan India. While the tiger marking its territory is cool I wanted to draw particular attention to the deer – if you can zoom in check out the eyes and you’ll notice 2 moths – 1 under each eye. It’s not a great picture but bizarre to see moths feeding on what I can guess are the tears of the deer! Insects are renowned for their strange tastes in food, but rare are those that feast on tears. When researchers announced back in the 1990’s that certain moths drank tears, their news was greeted with skepticism. Some entomologists thought it a freak behavior, but subsequent research has revealed tear drinking to be a specialized and sophisticated strategy. Moths that drink tears are fussy in their tastes, restricting their attentions to certain species of animal. The usual victims are either hoofed mammals, like the deer pictured here.

ELLIE GOULDING – YOUR SONG

 

FREEDOM

 

Seated in my dining room

I look towards the patio

where Buddha watches over me

through closed and hooded lids

so wise; so tranquil; so knowledgeable

an oasis of calm upon the ledge of the boundary of my life

my life may seem smaller now in some respects

my plans may have recently been shelved

but within the confines of my garden

my world is complete and in perfect harmony

there will be time enough I hope

when the illness that restricts my movements

has ended it's journey so that mine can then begin

this year I wanted to travel more

to see new places and revisit old memories

but “life is what happens

when we are making other plans” clichéd, yet true

so here I am and I can either watch the world go by

or I can wait for the world to come to me

for our knowledge of the world can be completely found

within the intricacies of nature; from the smallest insect

to the tallest tree and I can still lay on the grass

and look up to the sky; watch clouds endlessly floating by

imagine where they've been and all that they have seen

their watchful gaze takes in my form and carries it along

to another sky where someone else is also watching

how exciting it is to be a part of something

so much bigger than we are

the Universe; the Moon; the Sun and stars

I am not unique, but I am a part of you

and you are a part of me; together we make up the world

and who is to say that collective consciousness

is not within the clouds

or in the blinking of a shooting star;

or even a speck of dust carried on the wind

tomorrow that dust may settle on your shoulder or your shoe

and as you brush it gently away think of me

and I will know by the sound of the whispering wind

as it gently touches my face that the thought of me has travelled

and the thought of you is here,

so though we may stand still and barely move at all

we have in fact travelled the world together

have you ever caught a glimpse of a shadow

within your peripheral vision

only to turn and there is nothing there

perhaps that is me or one of you;

or at least the imprint that you have made upon this world

that travels freely within your mind and mine;

no borders can prevent this freedom that we have

the freedom of our minds can take us to the moon and back

in the blinking of an eye and the rain that falls on me

may someday fall on you; and can you see what happens

when raindrops trickle down the window

they merge and form a pool and that is us

one drop at a time we form the world; the whole.

Da sieht man wie sehr sich Fachkenntnisse und langjährige Erfahrung bemerkbar machen. Dieser Gärtner versteht sein Handwerk.

 

The work of an experienced gardener.

to awaken in a cheap room

in a strange city and

pull up the shade- -

this was the craziest kind of

contentment

 

and walk across the floor

to an old dresser with a

cracked mirror- -

see myself, ugly

grinning at it all.

 

what matters most is

how well you

walk through the

fire.

 

Charles Bukowski

In Japan's Sagano Bamboo Forest, on the outskirts of Kyoto, towering green stalks of the famously versatile plant sway in the wind, creaking eerily they collide and twist, leaves rustling.

 

If you've ever clicked on a rundown of "places to see before you die" or a compilation of the most beautiful forests in the world, chances are you've seen a photo of Sagano.

 

Located in the gorgeous Arashiyama district of western Kyoto, the Sagano Bamboo Forest's popularity has expanded in recent years, coinciding with the growing number of Buzzfeed-esque articles that include it on superlative-heavy travel lists.

 

Though it's the beauty of the bamboo that brings in the masses, those distinct rustling sounds have become an attraction in their own right. A few years ago the Ministry of Environment included the Sagano Bamboo Forest on its list of "100 Soundscapes of Japan" -- a selection of everyday noises intended to encourage locals to stop and enjoy nature's music.

AUTUMN LEAVES – PAULA COLE

 

Let the Summer go

let it slip like sand through your fingers

you cannot grasp something so ethereal

it can only be felt like a love that lingers

carry the warmth of Summer in your heart

slip into it's soft and tender embrace

let it's arms wrap around your heart and soul

let the light in; surround you; light up your face

let the sun shine from your eyes

the curve of your smile is divine

it reaches your eyes; lights up your soul

seen so deep and reflected in mine

walk with me on golden sands

barefoot; free and tranquil

side by side and hand in hand

our steps in time; our minds so still

footprints echo where we once trod

they fill as the sea rolls in

becoming more distant as time goes by

washing away our mortal sins

but is it a sin to love so deeply

that it devours us; swallows us up

surely it is better to love so much

than be empty; a bottomless cup

that cannot be filled or ever replete

happiness cannot brim over

it would be like a well; so deep; so dark

never to see the pink heather and clover

never to smell the scented air

Summer Jasmine and that of Winter

never to see the birds of the air

never to see sunlight; a fracture; a splinter

like a broken mirror the cracks can be seen

but the picture is fragmented as a jigsaw

the missing last piece to the puzzle of life

is love, my darling; love more and more

for only love can drive out hate

and only light can drive out the dark

so love all you can and with all your might

dance and sing joyously like a lark

for even though Summer recedes as we speak

Autumn is falling in it's wake

the sunlight is cooler but just as bright

and dapples with golden leaves like a lake

that ripples and swirls and travels nowhere

but the movement keeps it from dying

let love into your life; let it's magic unfurl

through the Autumn; the Winter; the Spring

and then it will be sweet Summer again

as the warmth spreads through your veins

releasing the Summer you kept in your heart

relieving the past; believing the plain

and simple truth; that memories are sweet

even though there may be pain

to live beautifully we have to live it all

and know Summer will return once again.

These rocks were all collected at the Jakobsberg mine dump near Filipstad, Sweden. The dump is really just a bunch of rocks spread around the forest floor. Oh, but what rocks!!

 

MInerals shown include calcite, svabite, johnbaumite, dolomite, margarosanite, cymrite, barite and a bunch of others things that I cannot identify*... Lit using Short Wave Ultraviolet Light from a SuperBright II.

 

*Stay tuned - my son is exploring some of these rocks with a scanning electron microscope. These are pretty weird rocks!

Found this floral arrangement at an exhibition today - looks a bit christmassy to me, or very autumnly at least, in line with our present weather...

That time of year to throw up a compilation. Thanks for all your words of encouragement over 2017.

I wish you good health, happiness, and success in the coming year.
