The fuchsias are most closely related to the northern hemisphere genus Circaea, the two lineages having diverged around 41 million years ago. Fuchsia is a genus of flowering plants that consists mostly of shrubs or small trees. Almost 110 species of Fuchsia are recognized; the vast majority are native to South America, but a few occur north through Central America to Mexico, and also several from New Zealand to Tahiti. Fuchsia leaves are opposite or in whorls of three to five, simple lanceolate, and usually have serrated margins (entire in some species), 1–25 cm long, and can be either deciduous or evergreen, depending on the species. The flowers are very decorative; they have a pendulous teardrop shape and are displayed in profusion throughout the summer and autumn, and all year in tropical species. They have four long, slender sepals and four shorter, broader petals; in many species, the sepals are bright red and the petals purple (colours that attract the hummingbirds that pollinate them), but the colours can vary from white to dark red, purple-blue, and orange. A few have yellowish tones. 29315
The hunting technique varies depending on the spider and its prey. Sometimes the spider waits in the center of the web, sometimes it sits at the edge of its burrow, with one or two legs attached to the silken thread. Once prey gets caught in the web and causes sufficient vibrations, the spider rushes towards it. Sometimes the spider goes straight for it, or shakes the web back and forth several times, often further entangling the prey, allowing it to be precisely located and identified. If prey doesn't move, the spider may lose interest; dead prey is generally ignored by spiders.
Small prey is immediately seized and often devoured straight away.
Slightly larger prey is grabbed and quickly spun; by rolling the prey in the web, a package is created that hangs from both ends of the web.
Even larger or more dangerous-looking prey is approached cautiously; the spider will first attempt to cover the prey with sticky threads from a distance using its hind legs. If the prey appears too dangerous, the spider will "free" it by biting through the threads.
The prey is eaten either on the spot, in the center of the web, or in the burrow, leaving a hole in the web. Orb-weavers "chew" their food, unlike most other spiders that suck their prey dry.
Some orb-weaver spiders that can be found in the Netherlands and Belgium: cross spider , wasp spider (or tiger spider), and the four-spot orb-weaver spider .
Apparently this means something along the lines of "Crescent Moon Lake". Unfortunately I didn't find any information about how the name developed. The area is a veritable eldorado for anyone with a camera as this high plateau includes up to 23 mountain lakes (depending on the season). Each one has a different colour, almost every one reflects the nearby mountain peaks. Needless to say, there's more to come 😅.
Nycticorax is a genus of night herons. The name Nycticorax means "night raven" and derives from the Ancient Greek νύκτος, nuktos "night" and κοραξ, korax, "raven". It refers to the largely nocturnal feeding habits of this group of birds, and the croaking crow-like call of the best known species, the black-crowned night heron.
These are medium-sized herons which often are migratory in the colder parts of their ranges.
Adults are short-necked, relatively short-legged and stout herons; the two extant species both have a black crown and a whitish belly, while the wings, chest, neck and auriculars are grey or rufous depending on the species. Young birds are brown, flecked with white and grey, and are quite similar to each other in the extant species. At least some of the extinct Mascarenes taxa appear to have retained this juvenile plumage in adult birds.
Night herons nest in colonies on platforms of sticks in a group of trees, or on the ground in protected locations such as islands or reed beds. Three to eight eggs are laid.
They stand at the water's edge, and wait to ambush prey, mainly at night. They primarily eat small fish, crustaceans, frogs, aquatic insects, and small mammals. During the day they rest in trees or bushes.
Santuario de la Virgen del Acebo, Asturias, España.
El Santuario de la Virgen del Acebo, llamado también Santuario de Nuestra Señora del Acebo, está construido sobre la cumbre de un monte a una altitud de 1174 msnm, que forma parte de la llamada sierra del Acebo. Tal situación le otorga unas excelentes vistas, pues se divisa fácilmente el puerto de Leitariegos, una buena parte de las montañas que forman el macizo occidental de la Cornisa Cantábrica y en los días despejados, hacia el norte, la mar. Administrativamente depende en la parroquia de Linares, donde está ubicado, perteneciente al concejo asturiano de Cangas del Narcea (España). Eclesiásticamente depende de la parroquia de Santa María Magdalena del Acebo y del Arciprestazgo de Cangas del Narcea.
Este concejo de Cangas del Narcea es uno de los más ricos en recursos económicos, donde sobresale la minería y la agricultura. Es el más extenso de Asturias y el segundo de España. En esta zona está la reserva boscosa de Muniellos con una extensión de unas 3300 ha y alrededor de un millón de árboles donde predomina el acebo junta al haya y el roble en menor cantidad. También es un concejo rico en linajes e hidalguías, ya que, después de Oviedo, es el de «mayor número de linajes con piezas armeras...; no en balde sus hidalgos de armas poner y pintar llegaban casi al centenar».
Está a unos 12 km de Cangas del Narcea y para acceder a él hay que recorrer la Avenida del Acebo y pasar los pueblos de Robledo de San Cristóbal, Borracán y Vegalapiedra. Al final de esa carretera está el Santuario. Por su exigente subida, ha sido fin de etapa ciclista de la Vuelta a Asturias y de la Vuelta a España varias veces, así como de diversas marchas cicloturistas. El perfil longitudinal o altimetría muestra la dureza de esta subida. La longitud de la ascensión es de 9,3 km, el desnivel acumulado en subida es de 811 m, la pendiente media es el 8,7 % y el coeficiente de dificultad es 198, con lo que esta subida cicloturista está catalogada como del tipo «2a», es decir, puerto de segunda categoría de más dureza.
The Sanctuary of the Virgen del Acebo, also called the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Acebo, is built on the top of a mountain at an altitude of 1174 meters above sea level, which is part of the so-called Sierra del Acebo. This situation gives it excellent views, since the port of Leitariegos is easily visible, a good part of the mountains that form the western massif of the Cantabrian coast and on clear days, to the north, the sea. Administratively it depends on the parish of Linares, where it is located, belonging to the Asturian council of Cangas del Narcea (Spain). Ecclesiastically it depends on the parish of Santa María Magdalena del Acebo and the Arciprestazgo de Cangas del Narcea.
This council of Cangas del Narcea is one of the richest in economic resources, where mining and agriculture stand out. It is the largest in Asturias and the second in Spain. In this area is the Muniellos forest reserve with an area of about 3300 ha and about a million trees where holly predominates together with beech and oak in lesser quantity. It is also a council rich in lineages and nobility, since, after Oviedo, it is the one with "the greatest number of lineages with armory pieces ...; not in vain his noblemen of arms to put and paint reached almost a hundred ».
It is about 12 km from Cangas del Narcea and to access it you have to walk along Avenida del Acebo and pass the towns of Robledo de San Cristóbal, Borracán and Vegalapiedra. At the end of that road is the Sanctuary. Due to its demanding ascent, it has been the end of the cycling stage of the Vuelta a Asturias and the Vuelta a España several times, as well as various cycling tours. The longitudinal profile or altimetry shows the hardness of this rise. The length of the ascent is 9.3 km, the accumulated unevenness on the ascent is 811 m, the average slope is 8.7% and the difficulty coefficient is 198, with which this cyclotourist ascent is classified as of the type «2nd», that is to say, port of second category of more hardness.
Welcome to Lecce the Baroque wonder of Apulia and depending on where you find parking this may be the first sight to greet you not Baroque itself but hinting at the wonderfully elegant viewing experience that awaits you.
The city gate pictured here is called Porto Napoli and was built to honor Charles V the Holy Roman Emperor of the day on his visit to the city, the gate itself was modeled after the Roman triumphant arches and certainly cast an impressive figure I am sure Charles was suitably impressed I know I was.
Lecce is well know to Italians but a hidden gem from tourists that flock the more well known parts of Italy which is not a shame in my opinion the city while filed with visitors during the high season doesn’t have that touristy feel and provides an authentic experience for those looking for one, I selfishly hope it remains somewhat unknown.

The Indian pangolin, thick-tailed pangolin, or scaly anteater (Manis crassicaudata) is a pangolin found on the Indian subcontinent. It is not common anywhere in its range. Like other pangolins, it has large, overlapping scales on its body which act as armour. It can also curl itself into a ball as self-defence against predators such as the tiger. The colour of its scales varies depending on the colour of the earth in its surroundings.
It is an insectivore, feeding on ants and termites, digging them out of mounds and logs using its long claws, which are as long as its fore limbs. It is nocturnal and rests in deep burrows during the day.
The Indian pangolin is threatened by hunting for its meat and for various body parts used in traditional medicine.
The Indian pangolin is a solitary, shy, slow-moving, nocturnal mammal. It is about 84–122 centimetres (33–48 in) long from head to tail, the tail usually being 33–47 cm long, and weighs 10–16 kg. Females are generally smaller than the males and have one pair of mammae. The pangolin possesses a cone-shaped head with small, dark eyes, and a long muzzle with a nose pad similar in color, or darker than, its pinkish-brown skin. It has powerful limbs, tipped with sharp, clawed digits. It is an almost exclusive insectivore and principally subsists on ants and termites, which it catches with a specially adapted long, sticky tongue.The pangolin has no teeth, but has strong stomach muscles to aid in digestion. The most noticeable characteristic of the pangolin is its massive, scaled armour, which covers its upper face and its whole body with the exception of the belly and the inside of the legs. These protective scales are rigid and made of keratin. It has 160–200 scales in total, about 40–46% of which are located on the tail. Scales can be 6.5–7 cm long, 8.5 cm wide, and weigh 7–10 grams. The skin and scales make up about one-fourth to one-third of the total body mass of this species.
The Indian pangolin has been recorded from various forest types, including Sri Lankan rainforest and plains to middle hill levels. The animal can be found in grasslands and secondary forests, and is well adapted to desert regions as it is believed to have a tolerance to dry areas, but prefers more barren, hilly regions. This pangolin species may also sometimes reach high elevations, and has been sighted in Sri Lanka at 1100 meters and in the Nilgiri mountains in India at 2300 meters. It prefers soft and semi-sandy soil conditions suitable for digging burrows.
Pangolin burrows fall into one of two categories: feeding and living burrows. Feeding burrows are smaller than living burrows (though their sizes vary depending on the abundance of prey) and are created more frequently during the spring, when there is a greater availability of prey. Living burrows are wider, deeper, and more circular, and are occupied for a longer time than feeding burrows, as they are mainly used to sleep and rest during the day. After a few months, the pangolin abandons the burrow and digs a new one close to a food source. However, it is not uncommon for the pangolin to shift back to an old burrow.
Unlike its African counterpart, the Indian pangolin does not climb trees, but it does value the presence of trees, herbs, and shrubs in its habitat because it is easier to dig burrows around them. Features that promote an abundance of ants and termites (grasses, bare grounds, bases of trees, shrubs, roots, leaf litter, fallen logs and elephant feces) are often present in pangolin habitats.
Few details are known about the breeding behaviour of the Indian pangolin. During the animal's mating period, females and males may share the same burrow and show some diurnal activities. Males have testes in a fold of the skin located in their groin areas. The female's embryo develops in one of the uterine horns. The gestation period lasts 65–70 days; the placenta is diffuse and not deciduate. Usually, a single young is born, but twins have been reported in this species. The young weigh 235–400 g at birth and measure roughly 30 cm. The newborn animals have open eyes, and soft scales with protruding hairs between them. The mother pangolin carries her young on her tail. When the mother and young are disturbed, the young pangolin is held against its mother's belly and protected by the mother's tail.

Geai des chênes juvéniles (Garrulus glandarius), Neuchâtel, Suisse.
Pesant 6 à 7 g à la naissance, le petit geai des chênes grossit de façon spectaculaire et atteint 20 g le troisième jour, 80 g à 10 jours et de 110 à 120 g en deux semaines. Malgré une petite tête recouverte de plumes Laineuses, noirâtres et rousse et un cou étroit, les oisillons ressemblent fort aux adultes, mais le juvénile n'a pas encore terminé sa croissance et dépend toujours de ses parents lorsqu'il sort du nid, entre 20 et 23 jours. Les jeunes geais des chênes continuent à être nourris pendant trois à quatre semaines. Cette période d'élevage est très fatigante pour les parents, qui sont contraints à d'incessants voyages. Afin de satisfaire leur nichée, ils doivent puiser dans leurs caches de nourriture.
"So much depends
upon
a red wheel

William Carlos Williams
When I walked the dog today, the wheelbarrow was gone. There's "no ideas but in things", but things just disappear. Meanwhile I know what the quote means to me and maybe what it means to others, but still I don't know how to translate it into German. Luckily I don't need to.
The point in translation and as well in photography is to make others believe you solved an equation, like a=b-x, but neither translation nor photography is like mathematics.
Still I try hard every day.
L’église Saint-Pierre de Cars, édifiée dans le nord du bourg, présente un intéressant chevet d’époque romane ainsi qu’un singulier clocher coloré.
Construite au XIe siècle, le sanctuaire dépend de la riche abbaye Saint-Sauveur de Blaye. Elle se présente alors sous la forme d’un vaste édifice construit en moellons irréguliers et au plafond plat.
L’église est bâtie en différentes étapes. Au début du XIIe siècle, le chevet et les absidioles sont voûtés. Il faut attendre quelques années et le croisillon sud l’est à son tour. À cette période encore, le clocher composé
d’un soubassement surmonté de trois étages est construit sur le croisillon nord et la façade ouest est refaite.Vers la fin du XIIe siècle ou le début du XIIIe siècle, une coupole sur pendentif est édifiée dans le croisillon nord. La voûte de la croisée du transept est aussi réalisée à cette période. Les bas-côtés sont quant à eux ajoutés au XVIe siècle.
Le XIXe siècle est une période d’importants remaniements pour l’édifice. En effet, on bâtit une sacristie à l’emplacement de l’abside nord, on dote la nef et les bas-côtés d’une fausse voûte en plâtre. Ensuite, on élève un porche contre la façade ouest et enfin, on réalise de nouvelles fenêtres qu’on garnit de vitraux.
En 1858, sous l’influence du curé Palles, le clocher de l’église est réparé et surmonté d’une courte flèche octogonale à égout retroussé. Elle est recouverte de tuiles plates polychromes vernissées. Cette toiture de clocher donne à l’église un aspect peu habituel dans le secteur. Finalement, au XXe siècle, plusieurs campagnes de consolidation et de restauration sont entreprises. Elles permettent aujourd’hui d’apprécier l’évolution de cet édifice, notamment par les différences d’appareil et d’enduits. La toiture du clocher est refaite en 1990. Le porche ainsi que les vitraux ont été restaurés en 2009.
L'édifice est classé au titre des monuments historiques en 1921
Prieuré qui dépendait de celui de Chavenon. Les parties basses conservent encore des baies romanes. Sont également conservées des fenêtres du 15e siècle à accolades, une cheminée, des corbeaux sculptés sur la façade nord.
The design and operation of a windmill depended on various characteristics of the wind such as wind speed and changes in wind speed, wind direction and changes in wind direction, wind turbulence, and the height of the wind above the ground. An average windspeed of 15 to 25 miles per hour and a prevailing wind were necessary for operation of a mill. The critical component of a mill's operation was the sails. The force of the wind on the sails caused them to turn and rotate the axle, or windshaft, on which they were set. The brake wheel, located inside the top of the mill, also was attached to the windshaft, and its movement drove the millstones and all other machinery inside the mill.
Mills usually had four sails, but five, six, and eight-sailed mills were also built. The earilest sails were wooden, cloth-covered frames known as common sails. They were light and powerful but had to be stopped for the miller to furl the sails. As windmill design advanced, the cloth sails were replaced with sails with shutters. In 1807, William Cubitt invented a sail which could be adjusted while the sails were turning. The shutters of this sail could be opened and closed automatically and worked like venetian blinds to aid in utilizing the wind. A windmill's sails had to always be square into the "eye of the wind" as the mill was designed and balanced to resist pressure from the front only. If a mill was tail-winded, the cloths or shutters could be blown out, the cap blown off, or the mill itself blown over, often with the miller in it. Because the wind changes, the mill had to be capable of being turned into the wind whatever the direction. This was called "winding the mill." The turning gear was the tail pole, and bodily force was used to effect the turn.

Depending on which statistical software your using, this is about my 2000th shot on flickr so time to re-work an old favourite!
The garden is about to be awash in bluebells. The French variety of bluebells are different to those in the UK. The French translation of bluebell is fleur de jacinthe and they are known as wild hyacinths and are found practically all over the country. They bloom between April and May depending on the weather and are of course perenial bulbs. They reproduce very rapidly, colonising large areas of underwood and are considered as weeds in some areas.
Very small heron of marshy, well-vegetated water bodies. Adult pale orangish brown or yellow, depending on the light, with a narrow dark cap. Juvenile darker above with pale feather edges. Can be inconspicuous in dense vegetation, but frequently makes short flights; on flying birds, note dark flight feathers contrasting with pale yellowish wing coverts. Typically quiet, but occasionally gives harsh grating calls when flushed. (eBird)

We watched this bittern stealthily hunting along the bank of the lake. It expertly picked its way between the stems of the bamboo and other plants, but did not catch anything while we were there. A small and very quiet bird indeed.

Birding Singapore.
Depending on the game reserve, there are a range of activities available to the guests. On this morning I and some other guests chose to go out in a Mokoro on the Xudum River.
A Mokoro is a shallow dug out canoe, they're incredibly uncomfortable after a few hours because the seats are small cushions and there is no back support or hand grips, and hands on the gunnel are discouraged.
The Ranger, the man standing in this shot, expects you to sit very still and not cause any disturbance that may attract unwanted attention. As the river is home to hippos and crocodiles, his concerns seemed perfectly reasonable. It would be very easy for either animal to overturn the Mokoro and claim an easy meal.
That said, a morning on the river in a Mokoro, observing wildlife and birds from the river, was a worthwhile experience.

Two Steps From Hell - Caradhras youtu.be/aBodhgVPbxs
situé dans le massif forestier de Saint-Gobain, cet ensemble de bâtiments dépendait de l’abbaye bénédictine de Saint-Nicolas-aux-Bois, à proximité. Connu sous le nom du Tortoir – toponymie liée probablement à l’existence d’un ancien pressoir ou plus vraisemblablement d’un moulin à foulon, ce domaine ecclésiastique, donné en 1130 par le chapitre cathédral de Laon à l’abbaye, avait une vocation agricole et forestière et n’était ni une maladrerie ni un manoir abbatial. Un logis et des dépendances agricoles sont attestés au XIIIe siècle. Le domaine affermé depuis au moins 1604, en mauvais état, fait l’objet de gros travaux en 1660. Vendu à la Révolution, il reste dans la même famille jusqu’en 1883. Classé parmi les Monuments historiques en 1912, il est racheté en 1925 pour servir de domaine d’expérimentation agricole avant d’être restauré par l’architecte Jean Trouvelot.
Jadis clos de murs et formant un quadrilatère, il est aujourd’hui réduit à un complexe de bâtiments qui occupent deux côtés en retour d’équerre et se composent d’une part d’un logis et d’une chapelle et d’autre part d’un grand bâtiment dont l’affectation primitive est indéterminée, mais supposée avoir été un réfectoire et dortoir des hôtes ou encore un cellier avec dortoir au-dessus. Cette aile est rythmée sur sa façade sud par huit grandes baies répétées sur les deux niveaux. Si les baies de l’étage sont courantes au XIIIe siècle, celles du rez-de-chaussée à réseau polylobé sont d’un modèle rare, plus civil que religieux. Chaque angle de ce bâtiment repose sur une tourelle assise sur des trompes, signe plus d’apparat que de défense ; une cheminée monumentale est encore visible sur chacun des pignons ; l’élévation nord a été très remaniée. La chapelle et le logis de dimensions plus modestes offrent encore un décor intérieur raffiné : culots à tête humaine sur la cheminée et aux abouts des poutres de la charpente.
La datation proposée pour cet ensemble est du début du XIVe siècle .

La Bergeronnette des ruisseaux est très dépendante de l'eau, surtout des eaux courantes. C'est au bord de l'eau et même en eau peu profonde qu'elle recherche habituellement sa nourriture. Tous les cours d'eau sont susceptibles de l'héberger, mais elle a quand même une préférence pour les eaux torrentueuses, ce qui fait qu'elle est souvent amenée à côtoyer le Cincle plongeur.
Pour la nidification, elle a besoin d'un substrat vertical où construire son nid. À l'origine, ce devait être assez systématiquement un pan rocheux naturel présentant des irrégularités comme des fissures, des replats entre couches géologiques, des alvéoles d'usure, etc.
Le nid est le plus souvent caché à la vue par la profondeur du creux, par une pierre, une touffe d'herbe, une racine, un embâcle, etc. De nos jours, l'Homme lui fournit des sites de nidification artificiels, vieux ponts, anciens moulins, murs de soutènement, etc.
Elle peut se trouver aussi bien en milieu ouvert qu'en forêt. Il est probable qu'on puisse la trouver en agglomération lorsqu'un cours d'eau la traverse. Elle niche alors dans le bâti. L'altitude importe peu et on la trouve du niveau de la mer au domaine alpin. Elle a été trouvée nicheuse à plus de 4 000 m dans l'Himalaya par exemple.
Les oiseaux sédentaires occupent leurs eaux toute l'année, mais tous les oiseaux sous climat continental à hivers froids sont migrateurs et vont hiverner au sud de l'aire de nidification au bord des eaux douces ou marines ainsi que dans tous les milieux inondés ou très hydromorphes qu'on peut qualifier de marais au sens large. Les oiseaux d'altitude descendent vers la plaine.

Like all lichens, Xanthoria parietina depends on symbiotic algae or other organisms living within the enclosing thallus of the fungus. The algae perform photosynthesis to produce sugars. In exchange the fungus provides nutrients and an amenable environment. In this case the Trebouxia algae are widespread and often free-living, inhabiting places like tree branches. The tough thallus conserves moisture and grows thicker in sunlight to protect the algae from intense solar radiation.
Common orange lichen doesn't disperse itself as easily as many lichens. It relies on mites that feed on it, then deposit fertile faecal pellets at new locations.
This species likes coastal habitats. In the Waterloo area, it often appears near rivers or streams. This one grows on an ash overshadowing Cedar Creek. Unlike many lichen it tolerates pollution and heavy metals. Its success over other lichens may indicate higher pollution levels.

What you see depends on what you are looking for.
Important is to look for the beautiful things in life.
A bridge is a structure built to span physical obstacles such as a body of water, valley, or road, for the purpose of providing passage over the obstacle. Designs of bridges vary depending on the function of the bridge, the nature of the terrain where the bridge is constructed, the material used to make it and the funds available to build it.

Not depending on anyone is a good thing
So I am being my own light
Being my own light means for me to do the things that's closest to my heart, taking the decisions that are correct for me and having the people I love close to me, in a natural distance of course, we can't devour our closest and dearest - then we suffocate them
We need balance in all things
I give you me, cause I want to
I do things I want to do, dress how I want, have the hobbies I want, taking stupid photos of myself and upload on Flickr, following my intuition, nourishing me with whatever I need, not what others think I need
Others opinion have more or less no effect, I can listen to others, but if I do what others suggest well that's my decision.
All this is for me being my own light
But
I love to share my light too
My light, as in my love
There is a balance there too
Being "selfish" is kind of a cursing, like we all are childen and only thinking of our own needs. But when you have fulfilled your needs, cleansed your soul and lightend it up and are in a balanced state of mind, well then you are so ready to give your love forward in an unconditional way
I love to give light to you without wanting anything back
If I want something back I feel I don't give unconditionally
That's not the correct way for me to give
Saying afterwards
"And I who did so much for you.."
You'll never hear that from me
Because I give cause I want to give
I give because it's the right thing to do at the time
Dogs are good in giving unconditional love, I have learned a lot from my dog, my precious King Aiko
It's pretty cool in a weird way, to learn such things from a dog, these things should lie in our spine as the most natural thing to do, and yet we are a bit fucked up
But we are on the move, aren't we :D
I think we got ourselves a Saturday speech today, there is always somehting on my mind
Have a great day you all, I'm off to spend some nice time with my birthday girl, 3 years old now, big girl :D
Hurray for her!
I have, of course, the best kids and grandkids in the world
And if you have any, so have you
Cherish them, be there for them, not buy your time out of their life, give your quality time with them
Best rescipe ever
– ¿Me puedes decir, por favor, qué camino debería coger?
– Eso depende de donde vayas –respondió el Gato.
– No sé a donde voy –dijo Alicia.
– Entonces cualquier camino es bueno –dijo el Gato.
– Siempre que se llegue a algún sitio –añadió Alicia como explicación.
– Oh, seguro que lo conseguirás –dijo el Gato– si caminas lo suficiente.
'Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here'
'That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,' said the Cat.
'I don't much care where' said Alice.
'Then it doesn't matter which way you go,' said the Cat.
'So long as I get somewhere' Alice added as an explanation.
'Oh, you're sure to do that,' said the Cat, 'if you only walk long enough.'

Where'd your sense of adventure go?
You sit at home, with dinner on a tray,
The world is outside.
Do you remember how it used to be,
At 17, I've never been the same,
Forgot my lies.
She said, we could do anything, we can do anything,
Oh oh oh oh,
Open your eyes; the world is outside your door.........
It all depends on the point of view

Y es que depende a quien estés esperando y para que, la espera puede ser agradable o no. Se ve que a pesar de la lluvia y esa llamada para decir que llagaba tarde, su sonrisa no se borró. Algo bueno le esperaba seguro!
Da che punto di vista guardi le cose.
Come ti avvicini a loro.
Se sei capace di non esagerare o di tentare. Se hai coraggio o temi tutto.
Dipende. Dipende sempre da quanto sei disposto a puntare o perdere.
Este recodo es uno de los lugares en los que tienes el agua a tocar con este grupo de cascadas a contraluz depende de la hora, por aquí pasamos dos veces en la que la segunda vez era a última hora y estábamos solos, una delicia el poder estar concentrado tu y tu equipo.

A week ago after sunset on the Moselle.
Depending on the season, you always have the opportunity to find a suitable group of trees over a distance of a good one kilometer, behind which the sun sets and then the golden glowing evening sky develops.
Luckily, a veil of clouds also moved into the picture on the left.
You often have such evening moods there when it is hazy in the afternoon and it cools down quickly after sunset.

Vor einer Woche nach Sonnenuntergang an der Mosel.
Je nach Jahreszeit hat man die Möglichkeit, auf einer Strecke von gut einem Kilometer immer eine passende Baumgruppe zu finden, hinter der die Sonne untergeht und sich anschließend der golden leuchtende Abendhimmel entwickelt.
Zum Glück zog dann auch noch links eine Schleierwolke ins Bild.
Solche Abendstimmungen hat man dort oft dann, wenn es nachmittags dunstig ist und es nach Sonnenuntergang schnell abkühlt.
