One foggy night recently this scene demanded to be shot. I took a deep breath and held as still as possible and squeezed the shutter release. There's a streetlight behind the foreground tree. I like the spectral look of the background trees.

Zhukovsky depicted an old Milyukov estate in Vsesvyatskii village of Tver province, where he lived and worked for a long time. This work is an example of late Russian impressionism. Here subtle gradations and large impressive brush strokes are combined. The artist used warm shades for the foliage and grass in the garden and cold colours for the depiction of the sky and tree branches. Art researches point out that Zhukovsky estate motives, which are often represented against autumn dying nature, are connected with nostalgic longing for bygone epoch, lost poetry of old ‘nests of the gentry’. Deserted ‘nest of the gentry’ became a mute witness and a symbol of the passing era. The old house and transparent trees seem almost alive, spiritual creatures, which have their own destiny. The artist filled his landscape with elegiacal mood and at the same time made it lively and dynamic with temperamental paintbrush. Rich, brisk brush strokes in the depiction of varicoloured foliage rise the feeling of thrill, mobility of living matter. ‘The red’ of the foliage gains even a greater decorative sonority against the white walls of the house with a great number of patches of reflected light and reflections. The artist just partly used the achievements of French impressionists, without crossing a line where the form ‘dissolves’. He combined impressionistic vision with Levitan understanding of the substance of a landscape motif. For the first time Stanislav Zhukovsky presented this painting for public in 1909-1910 at the exhibition of Artist’s Union of Russia. This painting continued an “estate” theme so deeply loved by the artist.
Rus: Жуковский изобразил старинную усадьбу Милюковых в селе Всесвятское Тверской губернии, где долгое время жил и работал. Эта работа — образец позднего русского импрессионизма. Здесь сочетаются плавные переходы и крупные фактурные мазки. Художник использовал теплые оттенки для листвы и травы в саду, холодные цвета — для изображения неба и ветвей деревьев. Исследователи отмечают, что усадебные мотивы Жуковского, часто представленные на фоне осенней увядающей природы, связаны с ностальгической тоской по уходящей эпохе, по утраченной поэзии старых «дворянских гнезд». Опустевшее «дворянское гнездо» стало немым свидетелем и символом уходящей в прошлое эпохи. Старый дом и прозрачные деревья кажутся почти живыми, одухотворенными существами, у которых есть своя судьба. Свой пейзаж автор наполнил элегическим настроением и одновременно темпераментной кистью сделал его живым и динамичным. Сочные, отрывистые мазки в изображении разноцветной листвы рождают ощущение трепета, подвижности живой материи. На фоне белых стен дома со множеством цветных бликов и рефлексов багрянец листвы приобретает еще большую декоративную звучность. Мастер лишь частично использовал достижения французских импрессионистов, не переступая грань, за которой растворялась форма. Он соединил импрессионистическое видение с левитановским пониманием содержания пейзажного мотива.
Станислав Жуковский впервые представил полотно публике в 1909–1910 годах на выставке Союза русских художников. Эта картина продолжила столь любимую мастером «усадебную» тему.
And now I see your face in the mirror
My secret brother, now uncovered
While dissolving into me
I'm breathing into you
Now I'm in you, now I'm injured
Now I'm healing, now I'm clean
Your voice sings inside my mind
Your tongue tastes points in time
We're threading tiny lights across the
Dome of the sky
We ride a single, endlessly unfurling line
Your love is deep in my bones
Now they're breaking now they're shattered
Do their fragments on the floor
Spell out our future, waiting to be told?
With rough hands and tender breast
White hair and tattooed vest
Now you're reaching, ever seeking
Ever watching your mind unwind
You hide beneath my bed
You sing inside my head
Hold my hand, be still now
If there's cancer in your blood
It works it's way through me too
We're all the same, uncontained
Boiling flesh, unspoken names
Dissolving, contorting reforming, distorting
I see your voice in my mind and I am singing
It works it's way through my veins
And my hands reach up to the sky
And they're burning as they're circling
I'm your vessel, I am creaming
I'm the avatar of your
Semen and I'm screaming
Each one of us is fueled with love
With your love to nourish
As you extinguish, I flourish
I'm inside your particles, your cells
And your molecules:
Each one of them is individually screaming
Poor little ones and zeroes:
They're screaming too
Our consciousness is true: it is physical
It is real it is divisible, and consumed
I am your child again again, your brothers
I am your sister, you're my sister too
Let the wires unwind
Let's celebrate the disappearing mind
True seeker, hold my hand
There is no sky, there is no land
There is no woman, there is no man
Each pain, each love, each regret is sacred
The wounded child is sacred
The murdering man is sacred
The imbecile is sacred
My spit in the dust is sacred
Your lover's sentient hand is sacred
Fucking is sacred music is sacred
To give up is sacred silence is sacred
Mindlessless is sacred
Sacred, sacred, sacred, everything is sacred
Nothing's wasted in our secret
Labyrinthine intestines of time
Through you I create myself
You are my one annihilating thought
Clenched in your fist
I happily cease to exist
Every thought is a capsule bursting
Spilling it's seeds in space
Each one is sacred each one is infinite
Each one dissolves dissolving is sacred
Erasing is sacred
I see your voice in my mind and I'm singing
I taste your voice on my
Tongue and I am flying
You animate my hands and I'm reaching
I see your voice with my eyes, right here
Right now in front of me, misting the air
(There is no man)
And I'm flying, and I'm rising
And I am flying, I am flying
Finally flying, I am flying
Finally flying, yes we're rising
Endlessly rising, and we're flying
Finally flying, and we're riding
Yes we're riding a white lion
And he's flaming, yes he's flaming
And we're flaming, yeah he's flaming
And we're flaming, and we're flaming
And we're flying, and we're flying
And we're riding, and we're rising
And we're riding, and we're rising

Der Dom St. Stephanus und St. Sixtus in Halberstadt, eine evangelische Kirche, gilt als einer der wenigen großen Kirchenbauten des französischen Kathedralschemas in Deutschland. Der Dom wurde in 250 Jahren (1236-1486) erbaut und ist der 3. Nachfolgebau im ältesten Bistum Mitteldeutschlands (gegründet 804 / 814). Vom Westportal eintretend, fasziniert der langgestreckte dreischiffige Innenraum, die Triumphkreuzgruppe über dem Lettner, der Hohe Chor, die Buntglasfenster, die Neustädter- und die Marienkapelle. Das im 11. Jahrhundert gegründete Chorherrenstift (1806 aufgelöst) führte erst 1591 die Reformation ein und vereinte seitdem katholische und protestantische Domherren. Dieser Ökumene ist der größte Domschatz zu verdanken, der noch am ursprünglichen Ort erhalten ist: Altäre, Reliquiare, Handschriften und romanische Bildteppiche (die ältesten Europas). Seit 2008 wird dieser Domschatz in der Domklausur neu präsentiert. Am 8. April 1945 wurde bei einem Bombenangriff auch der Dom schwer getroffen, bis 1955 konnten die die Bausubstanz gefährdenden Stoffe beseitigt werden. Jüngere Glanzpunkte der Bauarbeiten am Dom sind der Guss der Glocken Micha und Domina, die Installation des Dachreiters auf dem Langhaus und der Einbau eines neuen Glasfensters im südlichen Querschiff.

The Cathedral of St. Stephen and St. Sixtus in Halberstadt, a Protestant church, is considered one of the few large church buildings of the French cathedral scheme in Germany. The cathedral was built in 250 years (1236-1486) and is the 3rd successor building in the oldest diocese in central Germany (founded 804 / 814). Entering from the west portal, the elongated three-nave interior, the triumphal crucifix group above the rood screen, the high choir, the stained-glass windows,Neustadt's Chapel and St. Mary's Chapel are fascinating. Founded in the 11th century, the canonry (dissolved in 1806) did not introduce the Reformation until 1591 and has united Catholic and Protestant canons ever since. This ecumenism is to thank for the largest cathedral treasure still preserved in its original location: altars, reliquaries, manuscripts and Romanesque tapestries (the oldest in Europe). Since 2008, this cathedral treasure has been presented anew in the cathedral cloister. On 8 April 1945, the cathedral was badly hit by a bombing raid, but by 1955 it had been possible to remove the materials that endangered the fabric of the building. More recent highlights of the construction work on the cathedral are the casting of the Micha and Domina bells, the installation of the ridge turret on the nave and the installation of a new glass window in the southern transept.

The rear of Roche Abbey (by Maltby Beck), a ruined Cisterian monastery situated near Maltby, in South Yorkshire. The abbey is at the Northern edge of what was once Sherwood forest, and Robin Hood is said to have taken mass there regularly.
Like most other abbeys, it was dissolved by Henry VIII in 1538, following which the local community despoiled it for timber, stone and lead, as well as the property within. The remains were left to fall to ruin, and the land came into the hands of the Earl of Scarbrough, who emplyed the famous landscape gardener Capability Brown who buried much of it under turf in the late 1700s. There it remained for two centuries until excavated in the 1920s, and is now cared for by English Heritage.

Patrice Lumumba (1925–1961)
Patrice Émery Lumumba was born on July 2, 1925, in Onalua, Katakokola, in the Belgian Congo, into a Tetela family. Growing up in a rural community, he developed a strong sense of justice and a deep awareness of the injustices of Belgian colonialism. He attended Catholic missionary schools, but his curiosity and intelligence led him to become deeply interested in politics and the condition of his people.
Before independence, Lumumba worked as a clerk, but actively participated in trade unions and nationalist movements, denouncing exploitation and discrimination. His eloquence, charisma, and ability to mobilize the masses soon made him the most visible leader of the Congolese independence movement.
In 1960, at the age of 34, Lumumba became the first Prime Minister of independent Congo, leading a country freshly liberated from Belgian colonial rule. His vision was clear: to build a sovereign, united state, free from foreign interference and based on social justice and equality. Lumumba openly denounced the interventions of Western powers, particularly Belgium, and opposed neocolonialism that sought to control Congo’s resources.
However, his government was short-lived. After only a few months, due to internal and international pressures, Lumumba was overthrown in a coup orchestrated by pro-Western elements and Belgian and U.S. intelligence services. He was captured, tortured, and ultimately assassinated on January 17, 1961, in Katanga. His body was brutally dissolved in acid by his killers, a grim symbol of the cruelty of powers that feared his message of freedom and independence.
Lumumba is remembered as a martyr of African freedom, a symbol of courage, dignity, and resistance against colonialism and neocolonialism. His legacy continues to inspire movements for social justice and national sovereignty across Africa and the world.
I publish this series of figures to awaken consciences and to remember how many people died defending truth, justice, and the rights of the oppressed. I want to highlight the injustices that still exist and show young people that the only thing we can do is to resist, because evil still rules and continues to target those who try to make a difference. This series is an invitation to remember, reflect, and never accept injustice.
The clouds dissolved and you had a view into the Canton Lucerne and Aargau. So you see the Sempachersee, Baldeggersee and Halwylersee in this view. The two high raising cloud stacks come from nuclear power plants Gösgen (left) and Leibstadt (right).
Lacking entities keep them dissolved and stagnant, hoping to take advantage of such waste of human beings...
Apparent "peace" is a trap for "these" inorganic energies, the poor ones eager for eternity.

St Michaels Cave
Taken at the Upper Rock in Gibraltar.
The cave was created by rainwater slowly seeping through the limestone rock, turning into a weak carbonic acid which gradually dissolved the rock. Through this process, tiny cracks in The Rock's geological fault grew into long passages and large caverns over thousands of years. The numerous stalactites and stalagmites in the cave are formed by an accumulation of traces of dissolved rock deposited by water dripping from the ground above.
This shot if of the largest of the chambers, named the Cathedral Cave, currently serves as an auditorium. It was converted due to the chamber's natural acoustic properties, which according to experts, enhances and blends tones into a uniform and faithful rendition of sound. It is equipped with a seating capacity of over 100.
The lighting system has been replaced with a new system that is electronically controlled to change colours.
Thanks for viewing my images, comments and feedback welcome.

Approximately halfway between the famous Algonquin Provincial Park and capital city of Ottawa, you’ll come across the Bonnechere Caves. This stunning geological site is one of the best examples in the world of solution caves, which means they have been dissolved out of the solid rock by acidic waters.
Dating back to the Ordovician time period of the Paleozioc era, this fascinating cave system is thought to have been formed between 400 and 500 million years ago from the limestone floor of a vast sea. Squeeze through the damp, narrow passageways to explore intriguing fossils and geological wonders within the caves.
When Tom Woodward first discovered the caves in 1955, he explored them and drained them, enabling them to be opened up to the public. The caves have since become a popular visitor site and tours and operations are run by a small, family-owned business.
During your tour, you’ll be able to spot fossilized coral, ancient sea creatures — including an octopus — gastropods, cephalopods, crinoid rings and brachiopods, and more in the walls of the caves.
The caves are located near Eganville, Ontario, a small community in the limestone valley along the Bonnechere River in Renfrew County.
The geological wonder of the Bonnechere Caves in Douglas, Ontario, near the better-known Eganville, has been welcoming curious guests from around the globe for over half a century. The caves were discovered in 1955 and first explored by Tom Woodward at the time. The Bonnechere Caves are named for their location on the Fourth Chute of the Bonnechere River in Ottawa Valley.
When you go on the tour, it’s recommended that you wear a light jacket in summer and warmer jackets and coats in cooler seasons. Low-heeled shoes are required.
It’s important to note that the caves have a set of stairs leading down into the depths. Another stairwell returns you back to above ground after the tour. This means, unfortunately, that the caves have limited accessibility and are not stroller or wheelchair friendly. A backpack baby carrier for infants is recommended.
While you’re in the caves, photography is welcome and flashlights are encouraged. Visitors will enjoy the white waters of the waterfall within the caves, along with the many unusual flowstones, stalactites, stalagmites and features along the way.
As you begin the tour, you’ll see a covered area that’s filled with fossils and informational signs depicting the history of the region. The guides have expert knowledge of the fossils, as well, and share their discoveries and knowledge with visitors all throughout the tour.
The walls of the Bonnechere Caves are narrow and many of the rooms have low ceilings, so be careful not to hit your head. Many sections of the tour require single-file lines, while others are wide enough to walk side-by-side with partners or kids.
During your tour, the guide will turn off all light sources to help you soak in the reality of how truly dark the cave is.
Another point of interest apart from the caves is the sinkhole. The trail leading out of the cave brings you up past the sinkhole on the left.
