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.

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 :)
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
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.

There are more shades of mint green than one might imagine!
From left to right: Miss Sally Rice, Prima Dolly Melon, Simply Peppermint, Cream Cheese and Jam. Besides the differences in their hair color, the differences in their complexions are very apparent when they are side by side. Cream Cheese and Jam is SO pink!
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.
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^
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.

Very intelligent looking bird! :-)

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!

This is a vintage Christmas embossed postcard, copyrighted 1908 by Julius Bien & Co. N.Y.
The postcard features an illustration of Santa Claus with a white beard, wearing a red hat and a holly wreath. Santa is holding a plate with a large, decorated Christmas pudding (or plum pudding).
The text "A MERRY CHRISTMAS" is visible on the plate.
The card number "5004" is printed in the bottom left corner.
Christmas pudding and plum pudding are essentially two names for the same dish: a dense, steamed dessert made from dried fruits, spices, and suet. The name "plum pudding" is an older term. In pre-Victorian English, the word "plum" was used as a general term for all kinds of dried fruits, such as raisins, currants, and sultanas, not the fresh stone fruit we call a plum today. The dish is traditionally prepared weeks or even months in advance to allow the flavors to mature, often involving family members stirring the mixture and making a wish. On Christmas Day, it is usually served warm, doused in brandy, and set alight for a dramatic presentation.
Santa Claus looks excited in the image because, in the context of the Victorian and Edwardian eras, the Christmas pudding was a highly anticipated and significant part of the Christmas feast, symbolizing family unity, abundance, and joy.
Symbolism and Tradition:
A Prized Delicacy: The Christmas pudding was the centerpiece of the festive table and a rich dessert made with expensive, imported ingredients like sugar, spices, and dried fruits that were not everyday fare for most people at the time.
Anticipation and Ritual: The making and serving of the pudding was tied to numerous family rituals and superstitions, such as every family member taking a turn to stir and make a wish, or the excitement of finding a hidden silver coin for good luck.
Culminating Moment: The moment the pudding was ceremoniously brought to the table—often doused in brandy and set alight (flambéed) for a dramatic display—was a moment of great excitement and the celebratory culmination of the meal.
Joyful Imagery: Postcards from this era often depicted a jolly and enthusiastic Santa, as this aligned with the overall joyful and abundant themes promoted by Christmas imagery, a stark contrast to some earlier, more austere depictions of Father Christmas. Santa's expression, therefore, reflects the genuine excitement and shared happiness that the pudding represented to families during the Christmas celebration in the early 20th century.
Twas the Night before Christmas: Even in the iconic 1823 poem that helped shape the modern Santa, the description of his "cheeks... like roses" and "nose like a cherry" has been interpreted by some as suggesting a ruddy complexion from drink, though the modern interpretation is that his jolliness comes from the Christmas spirit, not alcohol.
The tradition of leaving food for Santa Claus has ancient origins in European folklore, though the modern American custom of cookies and milk became popular in the 1930s.
Historical Roots - Ancient Norse Mythology: One of the earliest roots of this practice dates back to ancient Norse mythology. During the midwinter Yule festival, children would leave food, such as hay or carrots, for the god Odin's eight-legged horse, Sleipnir, hoping Odin would stop by and leave gifts in return.
Dutch Tradition: The custom also stems from the Dutch celebration of the Feast of St. Nicholas on December 6. Children would leave their shoes out the night before with treats for St. Nicholas and his attendants, who were believed to be traveling long distances, and wake up to find them filled with gifts.
Modern American Tradition - The specific tradition of leaving out cookies and milk for Santa Claus became widespread in the United States during the Great Depression in the 1930s. At a time of economic hardship, parents encouraged this practice as a way to: Teach children about the importance of gratitude and giving to others, even when they had very little themselves. Reinforce a sense of hope and the spirit of generosity during a difficult period. The dairy industry later used marketing campaigns to promote milk as the ideal accompaniment to Santa's cookies, helping to solidify the tradition in American culture.
Tenochtitlan was the Mexica, or Aztec, capital in the early XVI century; Hernan Cortes arrived in Tenochtitlan in 1519, leading a small band of Spanish soldiers; they were attracted to the area by the numerous voices depicting the vast richness of the area, voices he heard while on the Yucatan - Veracruz coast. When they arrived they could not believe their eyes: a vast city extended on an island (Isla de Mexico), with dams and walkways connecting it to the mainland, surrounded by the waters of Lake Texcoco (or Tezcoco). The city was named Tenochtitlan, and another one was on the same island, named Tlatelolco. To the south, Lake Texcoco restricted and then enlarged to another basin, named Lake Xochimilco; on Lake Xochimilco, artificial gardens (chinampas) created a complex system of canals and waterways where farmers cultivated vegetables and fruits. To the west, the woods and fresh water springs of Chapultepec (el Bosque de Chapultepec today) were an important resource. Hundreds of thousands of people surrounded the few Spanish that dared arrive to Tenochtitlan. Still, Cortes managed to conquer the Aztec capital; the emperor Moctezuma thought the visitor might have been the mighty god Quetzalcoatl (the "feathered serpent"), who was supposed to be arriving from the east and be of white complexion; so, contrarily to the advice of his priests and warriors, he welcomed him into the city. After a few days, during which the scared Spanish realized what was going on, Cortes took the superstitious emperor as hostage. At that point, with a series of only minor ups and downs, the Spanish had the mighty Aztec empire in their hands. By 1521, they were destroying the city and building the new City of Mexico on its ruins.
This sculpture is a small example of Aztec art, and it was found among the ruins of the Templo Mayor, in the heart of Mexico City, on the site of the sacred pyramids of Tenochtitlan.

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 :)
These animals were taken at The Masai Mara, Kenya. Having a great chill out in the mud, it's good for the complexion.
In this part of the country, the Malagasy people adopt a lifestyle, which revolves significantly on reliance on the sea for resources and fishing. Hence the people here are often refered to as Vezo (fishing people) or Vezo Sakalava as they are a subtribe of the infamous Sakalava of western Madagascar. Whilst here women and young girls would often be seen carrying large fish from the sea as these girls here are, I never saw any men doing so. The one on the right also is wearing a type of make-up that women from this region and also in the south wear commonly, which is believed to have health benefits for the skin and/or to lighten the complexion.
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!
Four Photos Same Shot, one of Moira's friends and an Ex colleague at the farm during lambing.
This was the finished Standard shot with some careful softening of her complexion while maintaining sharpness in her eyes clothes hair and the lambs but mostly the eyes.
To be honest a lot of careful editing of what was a near perfect photo of her, I did get an element of highlight and it shows on her forehead and I can't fully damp it down in editing without spoiling the rest of the photo.
Kahn's mud bath.
Daily Dog Challenge: Treat
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😀
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.

One lens appears to be missing in A C T I O N {April 29 // 122}
• home, nyc
As some of you may know my filter shattered on my lens and today I was final able to buy a new one because passover was over... This picture reminds me of a funny story about my uncle from England and I forewarn you, my ability to write today has dwindled so I apologize for the lack of embellishment and correctly placed humour in this storytelling. My uncle wears glasses, in fact he wears glasses that are slightly tinted brown, and somewhat matches his complexion. One of the typical things you do to foreign visitors is to take that said foreigner to Niagara Falls in Canada and other various sight seeing spots whether they want to or not no matter how many times they have visited!
As we were enjoying a nice Saturday at Niagara Falls, people kept starring at my uncle and us as we walked around the falls and park area. We just assumed people were starring at us because a) my uncle has a cool british accent, b) I'm cool, c) me + my uncle = cool. Nevertheless, we never really tried to understand why they were starring, pointing and P O T E N T I A L L Y laughing (I won't tell you if they potentially were, or potentially were not. Hence the use of potential). Once we had enjoyed our day at Niagara falls it was time to head back to the car and call it a day. Once we got into the car, the natural tendency is to yawn, rub ones eyes in appreciation for how much of the day you ceased. As my uncle rubbed his eye, he realized he was able to rub it right through the lens. This is weird since there should be some glass there.
So apparently people were starring at us because my uncle had spent the latter part of the day at Niagara falls Canada walking around with one lens. In fact we have over 20 pictures of us posing with my uncle shy one lens. We nearly peed ourselves laughing in the car and later to the developed pictures...
It is not often I get a chance to be with such an exotic. She called me in and I listened with intent. This gal comes with a real punch; a V12 with 610 ponies and a red complexion. And, she was all mine for 1/25 of a second.

It’s not my title. This one was a gift from the early shift among the annual influx on a mid June evening at Holywell Bay, where I’d arranged to meet Mark, an old friend from work. When we first played football together at the college on Wednesday nights, we were both fathers of young children. Now, he’d recently joined me on Grandpa’s row, his daughter having given birth to a very tiny Finley, who’d arrived twelve weeks early. It’s truly amazing what the miracle workers in our National Health Service can do. I’m delighted to report that both mother and child are doing well. The newly appointed grandad is looking happy and relaxed, but then again he’s been retired for nearly six years. When he’s not doting over his tiny grandson, he’s playing golf, or surfing near his home at Newquay, or planning the next big overseas trip to some distant exotic location, a recipe for looking happy. We all look happy and relaxed after long careers in the education sector. If on any given day we’re feeling particularly old and decrepit, we like to mingle with those of our former colleagues who are still chained to the grindstone so they can tell us that we look ten years younger than we did when we were at the pump handle, weighed down by so many years of disillusionment. Even with the pasty Irish complexion I inherited from my own dear old Grandad and regular applications of factor 50 sun block, I have something approaching a ruddy perma-tan these days.
I'd already been here for a number of hours, having fulfilled another social engagement by walking over the headland from Holywell Bay to join my daughter at nearby West Pentire and its host of bright red poppies. With my two year old granddaughter we built sandcastles and sploshed about in the shallows, looking for interesting shells and the occasional green glint of sea glass. They'd left towards the end of the afternoon. Mark was arriving at six, and I reckoned that by half past seven I'd be alone again, armed with the camera bag. It was the first time I'd been here in eighteen months or more, which is crazy when it's so close to home and I almost always leave the place with at least one image that makes me happy. I mean really, what am I thinking of, not coming here at every available opportunity? How far would I need to go before I found another pair of rocks that look as good as this together?
The evening was partly about planning for shots I hoped to capture in the coming winter months. Some of them have been ruled out, while others need a second look. There's one composition in particular that I'm quite excited about, but I'm going to have to be patient and wait for the right time. I think you're going to like it too. At least I hope so because it's a bit of an effort to get there and it’s going to feel very windswept up on those cliffs in December. We’ll return to that one then if all goes well. Once I’d tried a few different subjects, I moved back to the dunes, scurrying from one mound to the next while an envelope of golden light peered through the clouds as if it were deciding whether or not to show its face. Eventually I settled on top of a grassy tuft and promised myself I wouldn’t move again until I was finished. Taken around three quarters of an hour before sunset, this was about as golden as it got, although I carried on shooting into the blue hour. It’s never an easy place to call time on.
At the start of this tale I mentioned the title didn’t I? I suppose I need to come full circle and wrap that one up then. Well as I headed back towards the van for the drive home, I couldn’t help overhearing the conversation as I walked past a family marching towards the beach from the direction of the campsite. Maybe they’d just arrived in Cornwall, because Dad was keen to show his kids the view of “Poldark’s Rock.” My friend who lives in nearby Crantock calls them “The Chicks,” whereas most of us know these twin icons as Carter’s Rocks or Gull Rocks. But thanks to a certain TV drama that returned to our screens a few years ago, it seems that there are people out there who think of Poldark’s Rock when they come to Holywell Bay. Although quite clearly there are two islets covered in gulls, and because I’m an insufferable pedant, these people really need to be telling their children about Poldark’s Rocks. I’m sticking to Carter’s though. But whatever you want to call them, they’re a very compelling reason to come here a bit more often than I do. There’s that winter composition to return to for starters, even if there won’t be any tourists around, waiting to tell me what I should be calling it.
Ahmose-Nefertari was an influential Ancient Egyptian queen of the 18th Dynasty, the wife of Pharaoh Ahmose I and mother of Pharaoh Amenhotep I. She played a key role in establishing the New Kingdom and was deified after her death, becoming a patron deity of Western Thebes worshipped alongside her son. Her dark complexion in depictions symbolizes fertility and the fertile land of Egypt, and she holds titles including "King's Great Wife" and "King's Mother". Ahmose-Nefertari was deified after her death.
