Like little rays of sunshine.
The colors remind me of a fruit salad. I wonder what tangerine, persimmon and jicama would taste like together.
Pair it with a new blue superfood and discover new worlds...

Der Delicate Arch im Arches National Park ist wahrscheinlich nicht nur der berühmteste Natursteinbogen der USA, sondern wohl auch der meist fotografierteste. Insbesondere zum Sonnenuntergang, wo sich die Farbe minütlich ändert. Auf einer Höhe von 1.471 Meter hat man auch einen sehr schönen Blick auf die La Sal Mountains, die in vielen Monaten des Jahres schneebedeckt sind.
The Delicate Arch in Arches National Park is probably not only the most famous natural stone arch in the USA, but also the most photographed. Especially at sunset, when the colour changes by the minute. At an altitude of 4.829 ft., you also have a very beautiful view of the La Sal Mountains, which are covered in snow during many months of the year.
La gota de agua
Oh gota musical que se separa
de la inmortalidad y oye mi oído
caer continuamente en el olvido
de mi honda penumbra, oh gota clara!
Una estrofilla de infantil dulzura,
sólo en la fuente alguna vez oída,
me ejecuta en el alma la caída
inmaterial de aquella gota pura.
De un agua fresca como cisterna,
mi pozo espiritual colma la gota;
y sin querer tengo una voz remota
y a todas horas la mirada tierna.
Oh gota de agua dulce que te estancas
en mi profundidad, de cuyo hueco
interminable sube un eco
que es como un vuelo de palabras blancas.
Oh gota musical que me deparas
el milagro ideal de tu caída,
cáeme siempre, siempre, que mi vida
vive en el canto de tus notas claras.
José Pedroni
Con un color intenso entre amarillo y naranja cuando está madura, la uchuva (en inglés Golden Berry o Physalis) es una de las frutas exóticas apreciadas por su olor agradable y su sabor entre dulce y ácido. Este fruto (de unos 2 cm de diámetro) es cultivado durante todo el año en Colombia, lo que favorece su disponibilidad para las exportaciones.
cape gooseberry
With an intense color between yellow and orange when ripe, the cape gooseberry (in English Golden Berry or Physalis) is one of the exotic fruits appreciated for its pleasant smell and its taste between sweet and acid. This fruit (about 2 cm in diameter) is cultivated throughout the year in Colombia, which favors its availability for exports.
Magical realm of grasses. I've never seen these grasses before.

MUJER HERMOSA
Hermosa mujer, tu belleza no tiene comparación
Celosa está la luna, de verte resplandeciente
Y el sol de ti enamorado, por eso brilla intensamente
Las estrellas no te quieren opacar, por eso no salen esta noche
Hermosas poesías te han dedicado mujer, cariñosamente
Poetas y escritores han plasmado todo de ti, amor
Eres inspiración y pintura la realidad contenida
Verte radiante y complaciente de amor copiosamente
Eres hermosa, por fuera físicamente
Bella en su interior, con su magia de vida
De su alma blanca y pura inspira ternura
Eres dulce y delicada, sin ser mantenida
Tu cuerpo hueles a rosas al amanecer, mujer hermosa
Eres fuerte, intrépida y expresiva bella dama
Eres sensible y del corazón comprensible
Madre y esposa que linda eres, preciosa mujer
Mujer, tu belleza te hace ver grande emocionalmente
Del amor de tus entrañas, das vida querida dama
Tu cajita mágica no tiene comparación entre las rosas
Siempre estarás florida, para quien te aprecia y te ama
Eres el centro de atención, preciosa amante mía
Sobre tu alma gira mi corazón
Y sobre tu cuerpo, mi ardiente pasión
Y de tus corpiños, das alimento a la vida mía
Siéntase orgullosa, consentida de mi corazón
Eres el centro hermoso de las rosas de mis rosales
Que de tus pétalos, riegas los néctares de mis pesares
Idilio de mi alma, que cubres mis emociones, llenándolas de pasiones

Cowslip - The Cowslip is a cousin of the Primrose and is also an early spring flower. Formerly a common plant of traditional hay meadows, ancient woodlands and hedgerows, the loss of these habitats has caused a serious decline in its populations and now fields coloured bright yellow with its nodding heads are a rare sight.
Hi everyone,
This was taken in early summer when the astrantias were just beginning to bloom. I cropped it this way because I wanted to include the single strand of a spider's web.
Thanks a million for stopping by and for leaving me a comment. I do love hearing from you!
Have an enjoyable day!

Importa la noche
cuando brilla el universo por las calles.
Importa el río, musita cantos íntimos.
Importa el sabor a menta
cuando me acribillas a besos y la luz del visillo
nos oculta.
Importa tejer mil formas
de amarte y que me amarres en tu bahía.
Importa el aire pero aún más,
el dulce soplo que esparce las semillas.

Part of getting through life is accepting, and dealing with, our weaknesses. Which doesn't mean they aren't still a pain in the butt.
Me, I'm over-sensitive to all kinds of sensory input - and input affecting my sensors. For instance, even in August in our constant ocean breezes, I daren't go outside without my ears covered.
This is, of course, a huuuge pain. When everyone else is out in shorts and bathing suits, I'm sweating with a big fleecy band around my head. It sucks, but the alternative (excruciating ear aches) sucks a whole lot worse.
I'm also overly sensitive to noise. And bright light. Especially bright flashing light that hits my eyes unexpectedly. So... imagine how much fun I am as a companion at a rawk show. Normally I take along ear plugs. Last night I forgot.
I guess I was lulled into complacency by the fact that the show was at a theatre. A play house. A place I last attended in my teens, when I saw some Shakespearean production there. So yeah... I went in plugless. And immediately regretted it. Still... I was up for enjoying myself... until the %$(*&$%(&ing light show started.
I can't imagine whose idea it was to flash big spotlights directly into the audience's eyes repeatedly throughout the night. Probably the same wise person who decided a super-bright sign behind the band... illuminated by 10,000 1,000 watt bulbs... was also a very good thing to flash repeatedly in the audience's eyes.
What really amazed me was that no one else seemed bothered. Whereas I was in several sorts of agony all night.
The bright flashing lights. Fuck, man. I thought I was gonna have a seizure or something. I ended up spending most of the night doubled over with my head in my lap, eyes closed, hands clamped over my face. Every time I tried to enjoy actually watching the band... zappo! Unexpected blasts of super-bright white light set off pinball explosions in my brain.
So today is pretty much a write-off. Migraine city, man.
And I HATE HATE HATE that my body is so delicate.
I'm from sturdy peasant stock. Why am I so fragile? Why do things that normal people take in stride disable me?
Sorry for the whining self-pity. Kee-rist. At least I know, without a doubt, that I am now too old for rawk shows. Goodbye youth. Your time has come and gone. From now on I'll just satisfy myself by listening to records at home.
I just love this picture because it represents so well the richness of the Atlantic Rain Forest in a single branch... The marvelous Red-necked Tanager (female), the liquens, the fern, all so full of life... Unfortunately there is less than 5% of the original Atlantic Rain Forest and it is always under threat for numerous reasons. We must protect this delicate and fragile environment.
Have a nice Friday!
Thanks a lot for your visits, comments, faves, invites, etc. Very much appreciated!
