An upper level trough kicked off thunderstorms during late afternoon near Torrington, Wyoming and moved slowly to Kimbel-Sydney, Nebraska after dark. Lightning was nearly continuous. Then shortly after a started my timelapse with the storm about 60 miles to my east, another cluster of storms formed over the Pawnee Nat'l Grasslands over northeastern Colorado. I switched to this complex to my southeast (45 to 60 miles away), and captured some discrete lightning bolts.

Bernardo Zenale (Treviglio, 1463/1468- Milan, 1526) - Saint Jerome (1500-1510) - tempera and oil on panel - diameter 40 cm. - Poldi Pezzoli Museum, Milan
Quest'opera è commentata insieme a Sant'Ambrogio. I tondi, nonostante i numerosi ritocchi sulla superficie pittorica, sono in discrete condizioni di conservazione. Zenale raffigura i due Dottori della Chiesa - titolo con cui sono designati i più grandi teologi del Cristianesimo antico - con i loro attributi tradizionali: Ambrogio porta il pastorale e la mitria vescovile e impugna la frusta a tre nerbi, simbolo del suo impegno nella lotta contro l’eresia ariana. Gerolamo veste l’abito rosso e il cappello da cardinale e regge un libro aperto, che ricorda la sua attività di traduttore della Bibbia. La rappresentazione entro tondi dei quattro maggiori teologi latini (a Gerolamo e Ambrogio si affiancano abitualmente Agostino e Gregorio) è assai comune nell’arte italiana e la pittura milanese, su tavola come ad affresco, ne ha lasciato numerosi esempi, come dimostrano anche i coevi quattro dipinti di scuola lombarda del 1480 circa di proprietà del Museo Poldi Pezzoli. Nei visi segnati dall’età, le rughe esprimono un’intima tensione; la luce si ferma a scrutare i volti intensi, la loro anatomia, le nocche della mano che stringe la frusta e indugia poi sui manti e sui copricapi. Alcuni dettagli vengono trattati con particolare attenzione, quali il colletto stropicciato di Ambrogio, l’ombra che si addensa nel cappuccio di Gerolamo, le pagine sfogliate del libro e le barbe brizzolate e morbide, dai riflessi perlacei. Zenale fu uno fra i pochi artisti, insieme a Bramantino, in grado di aggiornare la tradizione della pittura lombarda quattrocentesca, ancorata ai modi di Vincenzo Foppa, sulle novità portate a Milano da Bramante e Leonardo. Se, infatti, l’austerità delle due figure rimanda ai personaggi severi dell’artista bresciano, emerge nei tondi una forza plastica che deriva da Bramante e una nuova introspezione psicologica, di eco leonardesca. I due Dottori risalgono ad un momento contemporaneo o di poco precedente il Polittico di Cantù di cui il Museo conserva il pannello laterale destro con i santi Stefano e Antonio da Padova
This work is commented together with Sant'Ambrogio. The roundels, despite the numerous retouches on the pictorial surface, are in fair condition. Zenale depicts the two Doctors of the Church - the title given to the greatest theologians of ancient Christianity - with their traditional attributes: Ambrose wears the crosier and the bishop's mitre and holds the three-bladed whip, a symbol of his commitment to the fight against the Arian heresy. Jerome wears a red robe and a cardinal's hat and holds an open book, a reminder of his work as a translator of the Bible. The representation of the four major Latin theologians in roundels (Jerome and Ambrose are usually flanked by Augustine and Gregory) is very common in Italian art and Milanese painting, both on wood and in fresco, has left numerous examples, as demonstrated by the four contemporary paintings of the Lombard school of about 1480 owned by the Poldi Pezzoli Museum. In the faces marked by age, the wrinkles express an intimate tension; the light stops to scrutinize the intense faces, their anatomy, the knuckles of the hand holding the whip and then lingers on the coats and headdresses. Some details are treated with particular attention, such as Ambrose's crumpled collar, the shadow that thickens in Jerome's hood, the leafy pages of the book and the soft, grayish beards with pearly reflections. Zenale was one of the few artists, together with Bramantino, able to update the tradition of fifteenth-century Lombard painting, anchored in the ways of Vincenzo Foppa, on the novelties brought to Milan by Bramante and Leonardo. If, in fact, the austerity of the two figures recalls the severe characters of the Brescian artist, a plastic strength emerges in the roundels that derives from Bramante and a new psychological introspection, of Leonardo's echo. The two Doctors date back to a moment contemporary or slightly preceding the Polyptych of Cantù, of which the Museum conserves the right side panel with Saints Stephen and Anthony of Padua.
Ainda decidindo sobre qual assinatura usar... Acho que essa tá melhor né? Mais discreta...rouba menos a atenção da foto. Mas aceito sugestões :)

I'm sorry I cheated. ): I'm currently really busy and pretty much stressed out about tomorrow -- it's the dreaded parents & teachers meeting, and the teachs are gonna show our parents the grades and all that. Kinda scary. I think I've done bad this semester. I mean... I really screwed it up, especially maths and economy. I am just terrible with numbers and I'm not sure how to explain this to my parents!
Anyhow, today was a totally exhausting day. Ulya and I were basically skipping this school program study just to finish one of our assignments -- that was supposed to be done with our group for tomorrow. We went out to some printing place and we had to go through the blazing sun, ugh. Some of our groupmates did basically nothing. What a piss off.
Shot with LV and the flip screen tilted to be as discrete as possible. Not that I think he would have cared if I'd been more overt!
Par leurs saveurs, elles nous transportent à travers de lointaines contrées, réveillent nos souvenirs ou en créent de nouveaux, savent se faire discrètes ou intenses, nous rassurent ou nous tonifient, les épices composent la magie de la cuisine.

Large Skipper / ochlodes sylvanus. Stanton Canal, Derbyshire. 27/06/16.
The local population of Large Skippers are out in force just now along my local canal. They can reliably be found in number nectaring on bramble flowers.
This territorial male was taking some time out, perched prominently on bankside vegetation. His rest didn't last long though and he was soon zipping off after an intruder.

Pristurus rupestris - Blanford's semaphore gecko - dwarf rock gecko, a discrete little day time gecko but lovely colored when looking closer. Oman - Jebal Shams
The last story I told was of the harrowing trip through no mans land on the day of Holi. I ended the tale with my arrival in Khajuraho.
It was a pleasant city to visit. The traffic wasn’t too crazy. The streets were lined with a great deal of tourist trinkets for sale, but the vendors discretely hawked their wares.
I noticed a sign for a folk dancing show and the owner of the tour company was happy to get tickets for me. The show was colorful, charming and professional. The costumes were in brilliant colors of gold, green and red. A stage curtain showed scenes from the Indian desert. Camels and sand dunes were the theme. Such a different side of India than the one I was seeing. Visual scenes like this entice me to consider new trips and this one did. I’ll show you that area of India soon.
The next day I headed over to see the famous erotic temples of Khajuraho. I had no idea what to expect. I stood for several minutes waiting for my ticket to be processed and the tour owner to fetch a guide. I peered through the gate and the area seemed peaceful enough. And then we entered.
There were no tour buses. The grounds consisted of well-manicured gardens and lovely pathways. It was a very refined and elegant World Heritage site. In the early morning hours, the air was relatively cool. Only a few Indian visitors could be seen strolling through the winding pathways. I was thrilled.
I followed my guide to the first temple he wanted to show me. He was an older man, whose face told a story of struggles. It was obvious he had rehearsed the dialog he was sharing with me. I admire local guides who have studied such long hours in order to tell the historical stories of a famous place in a second language. His voice was low and soothing at the first temple.
Then we went to the next temple. It was the beginning of the erotic reliefs. His voice was changing slightly and he seemed to be more agitated. Then he began pointing out the figures. He pointed to a woman and told he in a voice, now elevated and very emotional, that this was a woman because you could see her breasts.
Oh my, I thought! My peaceful morning has just taken a strange twist. I wanted to enjoy this peaceful park. I want to take pictures, I want to stroll, reflect and ponder. If he was already, in a state of heightened awareness what will happen when we reach the figures engaged in sexual acts.
I decided to do something I’ve never done before. I calmly said to him in a very courteous manner that I would like to enjoy the park alone, in order to take pictures. He didn’t seem too disappointed and then I added that I would like to compensate him for his time. We agreed that he would wait for me as I exited.
And so it was, that I calmly explored the park at my leisure, sans the drama. He was waiting for me at the entrance. I gave him a generous tip for his effort and for accommodating me. We smiled and parted ways.

American Oystercatcher
The American Oystercatchers are a group of waders forming the family Haematopodidae, which has a single genus, Haematopus. They are found on coasts worldwide apart from the Polar Regions and some tropical regions of Africa and South East Asia. The exception to this is the Eurasian Oystercatcher and the South Island Oystercatcher, both of which breed inland, far inland in some cases. In the past there has been a great deal of confusion as to the species limits, with discrete populations of all black oystercatchers being afforded specific status but pied oystercatchers being considered one single species.
The name Oystercatcher was coined by Mark Catesby in 1731 as a common name for the North American species H. Palliatus, described as eating oysters. Yarrell in 1843 established this as the preferred term, replacing the older name Sea Pie.

Fuligule milouinan -
Quelques critères évidents permettent une facile reconnaissance : à tout âge, il a une silhouette massive, un bec large et un crâne arrondi. Le mâle fuligule milouinan possède une tête, une poitrine et un arrière du corps noirs contrastant particulièrement avec le dessus gris, le ventre et les flancs blancs. La femelle est brun terne avec un large anneau blanc à la base du bec. Quelques discrètes taches blanches sont présentes à proximité du bec. Les juvéniles se caractérisent par une absence de blanc à la tête, ce qui entraîne parfois la confusion avec le Fuligule morillon.
*** Fulcrum -
Some obvious criteria allow easy recognition: at any age, it has a massive silhouette, a broad beak and a rounded skull. The male scaup has a black head, bust and back of the body contrasting particularly with the gray top, belly and white flanks. The female is dull brown with a broad white ring at the base of the beak. Some discreet white spots are present near the beak. Juveniles are characterized by a lack of white to the head, which sometimes leads to confusion with Tufted Duck.

FIORE DI VERBENA CON CAVOLAIA
Lepidottero appartenente alla Famiglia dei Pieridae abbastanza comune e ben diffuso in tutta la penisola anche se negli ultimi anni ha subito una discreta flessione. L’adulto, di discrete dimensioni, possiede un’apertura alare di 55-68 mm. La parte superiore delle ali anteriori è bianca con gli apici neri; le femmine presentano due macchie nere submediane e una striscia nera vicino al margine inferiore. Le ali posteriori sono di color giallo chiaro con una macchia vicino al margine anteriore.
È l’unica specie di farfalla diurna che può diventare un serio problema per le coltivazioni; il bruco è, infatti, famoso per essere un grande divoratore di cavoli e, in generale, delle specie coltivate appartenenti alla famiglie delle Brassicacee e delle Capparaceae.

VERBENA FLOWER WITH CABBAGE
Lepidoptera belonging to the Pieridae family, quite common and widespread throughout the peninsula, even if it has undergone a moderate decline in recent years. The adult, of fair size, has a wingspan of 55-68 mm. The upper part of the fore wings is white with black tips; females have two submedian black spots and a black stripe near the lower margin. The hind wings are light yellow with a spot near the anterior margin.
It is the only species of diurnal butterfly that can become a serious problem for crops; the caterpillar is, in fact, famous for being a great devourer of cabbages and, in general, of cultivated species belonging to the Brassicaceae and Capparaceae families.
