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.
Was als Einzelobjekt unscheinbar anmutet, gewinnt in der Zusammenstellung erkennbar an Bedeutung.
Clean your glasses. It's not a fake :-)

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.
Eine sehr weiche Farbgebung bei klarem, aber verhaltenen Licht. Manches lässt sich verwirklichen ohne stets ISO100 zu erzwingen.
A gentle gradient. Every princess would be happy :-)

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...
