...em esplendorosas ilhas no Atlântico plantadas...

...desde a hora azul, em lugar místico, isolado e ao mar conquistado pelas forças telúricas, onde a devoção do homem a Deus, ao Mar e ao Sol tem lugar...

 

Wakening...

...in splendorous islands i

n the Atlantic planted...

...from the blue hour, in a mystic and isolated place and to the sea conquered by the telluric forces, where the man's devotion to God, to the Sea and to the Sun takes place...

Each time I visit Beijing I try to spend some time in Yonghegong Lama Temple, the most beautiful temple in the city.

 

On this late winter afternoon, shortly before they close, the sun was low enough to shine into the hall of the buddha shrine creating increadible rays of light through the smoke of burning incent sticks.

Wishing everybody a most wonderful sunday!

Ellora Cave 16: the Kailasanatha Temple. 8th century.

 

Conceptualizing an idea that would take 200 years to complete, take 7500 people to finish, with buy-in from 10 generations of stake holders, detailing it to the T (a house of god cannot have a wrong cut), excavating 400000 tonnes of rock, all of these could only have been possible because of the sheer brilliance, love and devotion of those involved.

This little statue is a nice place to leave Derby today. In many ways it sums up the spirit of the town. It stands in the grounds of the old Schoolhouse Museum and as you can see it features a young woman with hands clasped and head bowed. Behind her there is a smaller child with school bag. Devotion and respect. These two words sum up the attitude local residents have to their place.

 

They've been through boom times and bust (typical of mining communities). They've experienced the flooding disaster and dam break of 1929 that killed 14 townsfolk, endured long decades of economic decline. But their faith has been rewarded in a most unexpected way. Who would have thought that a group of young people mad about bikes would turn this place into the premier mecca of mountain biking in Australia, and a magnet for the world.

 

Little towns of the world, don't lose hope!

a woman is holding earthen pot which is set in fire(nothing harmful) it is a way to show the devotion....

Alice with Jack, the Eurasian goshawk (Accipiter gentilis), during flight display. Goshawks were extinct as breeding pairs in Brittain at the end of 19th century due to loss of woodland and prosecution from gamekeepers, but due to reintroduction and repopulation the number of breeding pairs is slowly increases in the UK. So, understanding behaviour of these beautiful birds is important for their conservation as well as public education, both are the aims of the Project.

 

It is a magnificent bird you wouldn’t have many chances to see in the wild. In the centre many diurnal birds of prey have their own free hours of flight where they want and catch what they like, but then they come back to the centre. The species scientific name ‘Accipiter gentilis’ that translates from the Latin as ‘Hawk of nobles’ as only noble people were allowed to use goshawks for falconry in the Middle Ages.
