Lately I did not shoot as I would enjoy, plus laptop was sent away for a little while, he might have to go again... Quiet frustrating strech lately, plus this winter that cant start because of Elninio...
I also lost some work because of laptop failure, my last LR database back up was from june so all tweaking to my pictures is lost...still have all the raw files.
So this was taken at La Baie few second before the sun came above the hills, I really liked the reflection, no need for improvement on such scene.
I bless the day I found you
I want to stay around you
And so I beg you, let it be me
Don't take this heaven from one
If you must cling to someone
Now and forever, let it be me
Each time we meet love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love what would life be
So never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only
And that you'll always let it be me
Each time we meet love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love what would life be
So never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only
And that you'll always---let--it be--me

Whoo finally I have done another database picture. I figure I should do this while I can.
After all, future is uncertain. Anyway my collection is incomplete, you can visit Angel Den for more info.
These hands are exchangeable on SD10 Girl, SD10 Boy, SD13 Girl and SDGr Girl.
You can see their compatibility on SDG vs SDGrG body here. I hope this will be useful. ^__^
In the center the so-called Swabian Eagle (House of Hohenstaufen)
King Roger's Hall - the formal chamber where Norman king Roger II would meet visiting dignitaries in the Palazzo dei Normanni, dating back to the 12th century.
The Ruggero Room contains exquisite mosaic decoration above a high marble plinth, dating from the regency of Guglielmo (William) I! (circa 1170). It covers the walls, lunettes, the undersides of the arches and the vault. Leopards, lions, harts, peacocks, centaurs and bowmen confront one another symmetrically amongst fruit trees and palms in the large lunettes. Spiral branches with leaves and flowers entwine the decorative elements of the vault, interrupted only by geometric bands (at the crossing points) and the medallions with lions and griffins. The Swabian eagle, within an octagon at the centre of the vault, dominates the composition, while the double-headed eagle appears on the keystones of the minor arches. The entire decorative structure is laid out on a single tessera background with gold leaf.
Thought to be the work of mosaicists trained in Byzantium, the iconographic themes of the mosaic cycle show clear eastern influence, more Persian and Seljuq than Arabic, as a result of the osmosis between the Islamic and Byzantine worlds.

The Bull has been and continues to be a strong symbol and a living icon in our lives. Those that know them revere them for their fertile nature. They will graze and ruminate and add fertility to the ground they adorn. One bull can sire a heard and not many bulls see great age as only the chosen are kept and they need to fulfil a purpose. King for the day and King for the year have not as many days and years as others and yet who would be the bull not chosen? I would if that is my choice, many though want to be Top Dog and Chief Bull.
This magnificent Bull in Bo’ness had me thinking of Pictish Art and their Symbol Stones. Their animal symbols survive to this day where their language is now none existent. The wonderfully evocative decorated stones are found at Pictish Sites with the striking lines flowing and curling like waves of energy form both the outlines and internal structure of the subjects. At Burghead in Moray several Bull symbols were found leading some to believe that the Bull was a symbol venerated here, maybe a marker not unlike those later used in Heraldry to tell a story of identity that is linked to landscape and to those who control it. The notion of totems as good luck and potent identifying markers of person and of people, of individual and of tribe to set a motif of identity within this material world and an icon within all spiritual realms too.
This particular carved stone is displayed in London in The British Museum and thought so highly of that a replica cast is held in Edinburgh at The National Museums Scotland. This Bull is also incorporated into the current Logo for The Moray Society Elgin Museum. There is a cast in The Elgin Museum amongst other Pictish Symbol Stones. The symbol stones from Burghead are numbered 1-6 and this one is catalogued as,
Burghead 5, Moray, Pictish symbol stone
Measurements: 0.53m, W 0.53m, D 0.08m
Stone type: sandstone
Place of discovery: NJ c 109 691
Present location: British Museum, London (1861.10-24.1) (cast in Elgin Museum)
Evidence for discovery: one of many bull carvings said to have been found during quarrying of the wall of the upper citadel to find building stones from around 1800 onwards, of which six have survived (Macdonald 1862). This stone was found sometime before 1809, when it was exhibited at a meeting of the Society of Antiquaries of London, and it was in private hands in London for many years before being presented to the British Museum.
Present condition: good.
Description
The triangular shape of this slab may indicate the preferred form for these bull stones from Burghead. One broad face is incised with the most ferocious image of a bull to have survived, pacing angrily towards the right with his head lowered far down and his tail swishing across his rump.
Date: seventh century.
This is a cast of a stone found at Burghead in Moray. It is one of a number of stones carved with bull symbols, found in and around the site of the Pictish fortress at Burghead. They date from between 500 and 800.
Like the other stones, the bull is naturalistically depicted, with scrolls defining the joints where the limbs meet the body.
The large fort at Burghead was a major Pictish settlement. A number of carvings have been found there, many depicting bulls. Various theories have been put forward to explain their significance, including religious, territorial emblems or clan totems.
“Interpretation of the stones' original role has varied. Some scholars have suggested they were displayed on the fort's ramparts as symbols of power; others have seen them as having a votive role in a frieze as part of a pagan fertility cult; while others argue they were standing stones lining a processional route through the ramparts, a role suggested by their likely original kite-shaped form.”

We had a fun visit to the wetlands yesterday and were happy to run into our young friend Rich as we were leaving. He has amassed a database of flora in our county ... and took us over to see a rare plant that we've walked near for years. It's blooming now in a low wet mucky swampy area that we don't usually walk into - but there were possibly hundreds of these rare flowers in bloom thru the swamp. Rich said it's only been found in 6 (make that 8) counties in Georgia (out of 159)!
As for odes: it was a clubtail kind of day. Baskettails still not out. Photos coming ...
So get out there and explore your own county or neighborhood - you'll be surprised what you'll find. Could go to 80o here today ;-)

In Greek mythology, Lycaon was a king of Arcadia who, in the most popular version of the myth, tested Zeus' omniscience by serving him the roasted flesh of Lycaon's own son Nyctimus, in order to see whether Zeus was truly all-knowing.
In return for these gruesome deeds, Zeus transformed Lycaon into a wolf and killed his offspring; Nyctimus was restored to life.
Despite being notorious for his horrific deeds, Lycaon was also remembered as a culture hero: he was believed to have founded the city Lycosura, to have established a cult of Zeus Lycaeus and to have started the tradition of the Lycaean Games, which Pausanias thinks were older than the Panathenaic Games.
