Mignonne, allons voir si la rose

Qui ce matin avait éclose

Sa robe de pourpre au Soleil,

A point perdu cette vesprée

Les plis de sa robe pourprée,

Et son teint au vôtre pareil.

P. de Ronsard

 

Sweetheart, let’s see if the rose

That this morning had open

Her crimson dress to the Sun,

This evening hasn’t lost

The folds of her crimson dress,

And her complexion similar to yours.

P. de Ronsard

 

Merci pour vos favoris.

Many thanks for your faves.

Philip Mould:

 

Known as La Belle Jennings, the sitter was one of the most celebrated beauties at the court of Charles II. Gramont compares her with Aurora, or the goddess of spring and says of her: Miss Jennings ... had a complexion more dazzlingly fair than had ever yet been seen. Her tresses were a perfect blond.'

 

Frances was one of nine children (four sons and five daughters) of Richard Jennings of Holywell House, near St.Albans by his second wife Frances, daughter of Sir Giffard Thornhurst, Bart, of Agnes Court, Kent. Her younger sister Sarah was later to marry John Churchill and became the famous Duchess of Marlborough.

 

At the age of about 15, Frances became a Maid of Honour to the Duchess of York and her appearance at court caused a sensation. The French Ambassador Courtin described her thus: She is small but has a fine figure, a splendid complexion, hair like Madame de Longueville''s (you will remember), quick brilliant eyes and the finest and whitest skin I have ever seen.

 

Frances and her fellow Maids of Honour gained a reputation of some notoriety for their behaviour at Court. Samuel Pepys records the incident of Miss Jennings and Miss Price disguising themselves as orange girls:

 

What mad freaks the Mayds of Honour at Court have that Mrs.Jenings, one of the Duchesse's mayds, the other day dressed herself like an orange wench and went up and down and cried oranges; till falling down, or by such accident, though in the evening, her fine shoes were discerned and she put to a great deale of shame.

 

Her admirers included James, Duke of York, Marquis de Berni, Henry Jermyn and Richard Talbot but all of them were rejected. She was almost alone among her competitors in maintaining a reputation of chastity. In the spring of 1666 she married George Hamilton, an officer and a Roman Catholic. The King showed his approval by bestowing on Hamilton a pension of £500 a year and their first child, a daughter Elizabeth, was born a year later.

As a result of increased religious tension following the Great Fire, Catholics were forced to retire from the English army. As a consequence, Hamilton and 200 other Catholics in the Lifeguards transferred their services to France but not before he was knighted by the King in 1667. The Hamiltons quickly established themselves at the French Court. Hamilton raised a regiment of 1,500 Irish recruits and successfully took part in the victories at Sintzheim and Entzheim but was later killed at the Battle of Savarne in 1676. Frances was widowed with three children and Madame de Sevigne wrote that she was inconsolable and ruined beyond all hope. 4 The diarist John Evelyn met her in the same year at the house of the Countess of Berkeley, whose husband was Ambassador Extraordinary at Paris:

 

There was in my Lady Ambassadress's company Lady Hamilton, a sprightly young lady, much in the good graces of the family, wife of that valiant and worthy gentleman, George Hamilton, not long after slain in the wars. She had been a Maid of Honour to the Duchess, and now turned papist.

 

She petitioned the English court and secured for herself an annuity and the title of the Countess of Bantry. In 1679 she married in Paris, Colonel Richard Talbot, one of her early suitors at the Court of Charles II, but continued her court duties, attending the Queen at the Coronation in Westminster Abbey on 23 April 1685 and in the earlier lists of Queen Mary's household she appears as a Lady of the Bedchamber. Three months after the accession of James II, her husband was elevated as the Earl of Tyrconnel and given command of the army in Ireland.

 

His activities in Ireland aroused considerable controversy and as Commander of the Army in Ireland he disarmed the Protestants and filled the ranks with Catholics. He succeeded Clarendon as Viceroy in January 1687 and the following year he sent three thousand Irish troops to England. He fought courageously when his cause was shattered at the Battle of the Boyne. Tyrconnel decided to continue the struggle and returned to Ireland in 1691 but he died suddenly of apoplexy in Limerick after the defeat of Aughrim.

 

Frances was with the exiled court of James and Mary at St.Germain, when her husband died. She spent the following years in France, England and Holland before finally settling in Dublin where she lived in a house in Paradise Row, Arbor Hill, near Phoenix Park. She founded a nunnery in King Street for the Order of Poor Clares. She died as a result of falling out of bed and was buried in a vault in St.Patrick's Cathedral.

 

By Tyrconnel she had two daughters, of whom lady Charlotte was married to the Prince of Vintimiglia. Three of her daughters by Hamilton, Elizabeth, Frances and Mary married respectively Viscounts Ross, Dillon and Kingsland and were well known in Ireland as the Three Viscountesses.

William Shakespeare

 

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?

Thou art more lovely and more temperate.

Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,

And summer's lease hath all too short a date.

Sometimes too hot the eye of heaven shines,

And often is his gold complexion dimmed;

And every fair from fair sometime declines,

By chance, or nature's changing course, untrimmed:

But thy eternal summer shall not fade

Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st,

Nor shall Death brag thou wand'rest in his shade

When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st.

So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,

So ling lives this, and this gives life to thee.

Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;

 

A real tomboy this one.She loves playing parts and leading actors.The poor kid is so sick of her hair,it is so short.Too short actually.When her mommy would let her she would have it rerooted.

Tootles is a loner.She likes to go fishing but she hardly catches anything with those skinny plastic arms.She is rather outdoory,loves camping and collecting bugs in jars and does a bit of bird watching.

She loves barbecues and is a ferocious meat eater..but the meals should or must come with corn cobs and fries.She hates dresses and rather lounge around in shorts and pants..oh one thing though..please dont mention her still visible yellow complexion.she is rather sensitive about it still..

SICUREZZA DAL SOLE. SUN SAFETY.

  

Alcune persone gioiscono al primo raggio di sole che gli accarezza la pelle.

Ci piace avere la pelle abbronzata che migliora il nostro colortio.

Ma attenzione! Non si dovrebbe prendere troppo sole soprattutto sul viso a causa della sua pelle fine. I raggi del sole, in particolar modo i raggi UV, generano una grande produzione di radicali liberi che alterano il ruolo delle cellule. A seguito di un'esposizione ripetuta e nel tempo, la pelle non può più difendersi, promuovendo la comparsa di imperfezioni: macchie, linee sottili, rughe...

Prottegere il proprio viso, il collo e le mani dal sole permetterà di conservare un piacevole colorito e al tempo stesso di evitare un invecchiamento prematuro.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  

Some people rejoice at the first ray of sunshine that caresses their skin.

We like to have tanned skin which improves our colortio.

But be careful! You shouldn't get too much sun especially on the face due to its fine skin. The sun's rays, especially UV rays, generate a large production of free radicals that alter the role of cells. Following repeated exposure over time, the skin can no longer defend itself, promoting the appearance of imperfections: spots, fine lines, wrinkles ...

Protecting your face, neck and hands from the sun will allow you to preserve a pleasant complexion and at the same time avoid premature aging.

It was a hot day so on the way home I treated Kahn to a soak in a muddy puddle. He loved it ... he left muddy footprints all the way home that were still on the road 2 days later. After a good hose down he also left muddy footprints on our verandah ... need for more hosing😀

Autumn along the Merced river, Yosemite National Park

 

Better on black due to the low lighting in this scene

 

An unusually dry season has led to very low water levels in the Merced river, making it possible for falling leaves to float slowly by -- perfect for the landscape photographer! The incoming storm also provides diffuse lighting which prevents hot spots from the sun and an even lighting ideal to show off the wonderful colors of the trees nearby. In post I used some burning and dodging to improve the evenness of the lighting, and pushed the yellows and the reds just a tad to help them stand out a little more. I wish I could say this is an original composition, but a little searching on Flickr shows that it has been done before; not surprising given that the Yosemite valley is one of the most heavily photographed spots in the world.

The snow storm arrived later in the day and changed the complexion of the scenes dramatically. Lots of leaves dropped off and a lot of the color was muted due to the snow sitting upon the leaves. I'll be rolling out some more images as I get time to work with them.

As always, thanks for your visit and comments should you care to share them!

Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?

Thou art more lovely and more temperate.

Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,

And summer’s lease hath all too short a date.

Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,

And often is his gold complexion dimmed;

And every fair from fair sometime declines,

By chance, or nature’s changing course, untrimmed;

But thy eternal summer shall not fade,

Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st,

Nor shall death brag thou wand’rest in his shade,

When in eternal lines to Time thou grow’st.

So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,

So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

- William Shakespeare

Mignonne, allons voir si la rose

Qui ce matin avait déclose

Sa robe de pourpre au soleil,

A point perdu cette vesprée,

Les plis de sa robe pourprée,

Et son teint au vôtre pareil.

Las ! voyez comme en peu d’espace,

Mignonne, elle a dessus la place

Las, las ses beautés laissé cheoir

Ô vraiment marâtre Nature,

Puis qu’une telle fleur ne dure

Que du matin jusques au soir !

Donc, si vous me croyez, mignonne,

Tandis que votre âge fleuronne

En sa plus verte nouveauté,

Cueillez, cueillez votre jeunesse :

Comme à cette fleur la vieillesse

Fera ternir votre beauté.

Ronsard (1524, Vendômois)

Odes, I,17

   

My sweet, let us see whether the rose...

 

for Cassandre

 

My sweet, let us see whether the rose

which this morning had openend

its purple dress in the sun

has retained this evening

the folds of its purple dress,

and its complexion so akin to yours.

 

Alas! See in how little time,

my sweet, it let fall, alas,

its beauty on the ground!

Oh, nature, cruel mother,

for such a flower only lasts

from dawn until dusk!

 

So, if you trust my words, my sweet,

as your age is blooming

in the prime of its youth,

pick, pick your youthfullness.

Just like for this flower, old age

will tarnish your beauty.

here's a good old classic self portrait, haven't done one in awhile with all my experiments with different techniques ^_^ got bored today and took lots of photographs, keep a look out they will be up in the next few days :)

Very soft and misty rain at Gougane Barra. Always good for the complexion, you can't worry about your hair which is a frizzy mess. My Mom would try and have me take an umbrella, but I like to leave the umbrella at home they just end up blowing inside out and you have to carry it all day long :)

Iris is applying her makeup and lipstick 💄.

 

Actually she has a matte complexion and naturally red lips, so she doesn’t need makeup, but she is the one Blythe of mine who looks like she’s wearing makeup.

Okay, so I have a bit of a cheek posting this after yesterday's photo (cake and wine), but II wanted too make the point that you don't have to eat rabbit food to have a healthy heart. Food comes in all shapes and sizes, flavours, textures and colours. THe best way to make sure you get a bit of everything you need is to eat a variety of foods. Add some exercise to the mix and you're well on your way to a healthy heart.

 

It's the British Heart Foundation's National Heart Month, so we were challenged to wear red for today. Unfortunately I have that Scottish complexion that doesn't suit red, although I love the colour - this is my alternative to wearing it!

 

My husband works for Chest Heart Stroke Scotland, a charity working in partnership on many projects with BHF. Working together to guide us to healthy hearts.

  

Feeling a bit drained with the onset of Winter

I saw this darkroom which is actually a BDSM set and had to take a quick pic. No restraints! The backdrop/scene already has a red tint on the wall and I added some rose-colored lighting to simulate a darkroom safe light without compromising my complexion!

Holi, the Festival of Colours has been celebrated in India since thousands of years and is now also celebrated by various communities of South Asia including non-Hindu communities.

 

While Holi is celebrated in almost every part of India, Holi in Braj is especially famous. Braj is a historical region which covers the area of Mathura, Vrindavan,Barsana,Nandgaon and some nearby areas. Holi here attacts tourists and pilgrims from all over the world because of it’s special customs and traditions. Mathura is the birth-place of Lord Krishna and Vrindavan is the place where he grew up in his childhood.

 

When Krishna was young, he cribbed to his mother about Radha (his friend) being fair while Krishna himself was dark complexioned. His mother (Yashoda) suggested him to colour Radha with colors in a playful manner. Over the years, Krishna from his village Nandgaon used to go to Barsana (Radha’s village) to color Radha and other Gopis. They also used to playfully beat him with sticks. And hence the tradition evolved.

   

Here I am sitting in the Goodwill parking lot.

 

I have never actually been in the Goodwill to look for clothes, but I didn't want to pay an outrageous amount for a black skirt. I still couldn't decide if I liked any of them and didn't end up getting anything.

 

My day was o.k. Jessica and I went went shopping for my CHA stuff and that was good to visit with her, but I continued looking and shopping 3 hours after I left her. All in all, went to the mall, Joseph Beth, Target, Lowes, Starbucks, Shoe Carnival, Marshalls, and Goodwill. I became worn out.

 

I had crappy disappointing coffee at Starbucks and loneliness started rearing it's ugly head. I think this picture kinda displays that. I kinda get tired of always being alone (not in a relationship).

 

Someone made a statement to my friend about me this weekend, saying, "She's fun and unique, why doesn't she have a boyfriend?" This is the story of my life.

 

Also, my complexion really sucks. I'm going to have to break down and go to the dermatologist.

2/8 I've rested for so long (about 4 months or more)!!! Look at my fair complexion... my beauty is second to none!!!

Just a quick color test today! I've decided on a color palette for my new Licca Castle 20th Anniversary repro. :)

 

She's going to be the romantic shabby chic girl of the group, wearing shabby chic inspired dresses in white, off white, cream and other light colors, along with gentle rose and similar sweet prints, plus pale lace and trims. Her complexion, haircolor and rosey lips and cheeks suit the kind of style really well, I think!

 

The bobbins box actually gave me the idea for a name for her... Bobbins! ^o^

Three St. Marys (Magdalene, Mary Salome and Mary Jacob), who, according to the Gospels, were present at the Crucifixion, are said to have fled the Holy Land by sea shortly afterwards, eventually landing here at the mouth of the Rhône with other disciples of Jesus.

 

Mary Magdalen and others moved on towards Marseille, but the latter two Marys remained here, and their relics, along with fragments of their boat, have been safeguarded for centuries in this fortress-like church.

 

Their servant Sara, dark-complexioned and thought to be of Egyptian origin, has also become the subject of veneration - particularly for the large Gypsy population living in this part of southern France. The chapel in the crypt under the altar is dedicated to her, and an annual pilgrimage draws great numbers of Gypsy and other visitors.

I am the desert.

 

My spoken words seldom flower or blossom to forest the conversation.

 

I gouge the earth with condensed emotion precipitating flash floods, washing the loosened particles of fragmented thoughts down gullies of past lives to form fluvial deposits which turn to drifting sand in the glaring sun.

 

High pressure fronts sweep across the face of my nature with driving winds and partly cloudy moods ever changing its complexion.

 

I conceal my humid humor amongst pointed, prickly vegetation to protect the succulence nourished from roots searching deep beneath the surface.

 

The low brush that litters the landscape gives spotty relief from the burning desire to realize the mirage of my indomitable dreams.

 

Very intelligent looking bird! :-)

 

I changed the image to mono because the bright green background did not suit Mrs. Ostrich's complexion.......

Est une espèce de petits passereaux de la famille des Passeridae.

 

C'est un petit oiseau assez trapu, mesurant environ 16 cm de long pour un poids allant de 24 à 39,5 g. Les femelles et les jeunes oiseaux sont pâles, colorés de brun et de gris, tandis que les mâles ont le teint plus vif, avec des marques noires, blanches et brunes. Granivore, il se nourrit majoritairement de céréales et d'autres graines, mais se montre opportuniste, consommant divers invertébrés, les insectes en premier lieu, qui servent par ailleurs d'alimentation de base aux oisillons.
