Teilhard says we can further God’s project not only by our activities but also by how we deal with daily passivities of diminishment as well as those endured while suffering and dying. What does Jesus do with the energy he spends in suffering physical pain, emotional rejection, and spiritual pain? What is its purpose? Is it purely a waste? Can the energy spent enduring these things be used to benefit the growth of the kingdom of God? Teilhard answers yes.1 That is what Jesus teaches us on the cross. The energy being spent in enduring passivities, just as the energy being spent in performing activities, may be directed to energize God’s project by one’s intention. In the kingdom, no energy need be wasted. Even the energy endured in unwelcome passivities may be directed to contribute to God’s project. Teilhard sees Jesus doing precisely this. God’s will is always to promote the growth of the kingdom. Jesus’s prayer is, “Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on Earth….” This is the meaning of all martyrdom. One willingly undergoes martyrdom to help the growth of God’s kingdom, not merely to save one’s soul. In Teilhard’s terminology, one acts and does good deeds to help accomplish God’s work on Earth by one’s activities of growth. One transforms suffering and passivities to help accomplish God’s work on Earth by one’s activities of growth. One dies—a passivity—to help accomplish God’s work on Earth by turning it into an activity of growth.

My how the fabulous sun can become a electrifying energizer through the autumn forest. Kissing the early morning with great vibes !
Pushing on that trigger is like pulling magic into my very soul...Darrell.
Have a fabulous and safe day dear Flickr friends !
Red stimulates and excites your nerves, pulse rate and blood circulation, and lends energy to your entire system. When you are fatigued, lethargic or sluggish for any reason, red has an energizing influence.

Sometimes you just need to get away from it all... it can re-energize and re-inspire you.

Luck is often the best artist. I was trying to get a shot of the tent glowing since my friend was inside with his torch light on, but as I started the shot he got out and walked towards me, purely by chance, and gave this incredible lightening effect. Thought I'd share !
When taking pictures of soap film, most of the bubbles wind up having similar rainbow like patterns and effects. Occasionally you get one that is radically different.

Took this a few weeks ago while assisting Dave on one of his shoots for uni. He'd arranged the run of a small supermarket/dairy/newsagents/corner shop (delete as applicable) and honestly, I saw this, and just loved the colours and the lighting.
Struck me since, that it's with a little irony that I took this of all the shots, simply because I'm a bit against this relentless hype of various energy drinks. Exceptional marketing which feeds you over and over with one caffeine riddled drink after another. These things were responsible for one of my worst liquid intake related illnesses ever. Bloody things! ;-) Mind you, it obviously works, if Red Bull can sponsor an F1 team, arrange whizzy planes to tour the world and run soapbox derbys (they look like fun!) then fair play to them! ;-)

Description:
This large hydrogen gas nebula lies about 6,000 light-years away in the constellation Cassiopeia, and in the Perseus Arm of our Milky Way galaxy. The nebula is energized by hot stars near the centre in this view, some of which are about 50 times the mass of our own Sun. The nebula has a diameter of about 200 light years.
For a wider angle view of Cassiopeia and this nebula, made with a 50 mm lens on the same evening, click here:

Golden Lane Estate Carpark, Barbican, London, England
Always wanted to visit this carpark in London after seeing several photos from here and finally found it. Such an atmospheric carpark and very Brutalist in nature.
I took several photos of this carpark and would have preferred if the sunlight was more central but this is where the sun was at that time of day, ah well! I bet here would be great at dusk or dawn with softer light coming through the circular openings.
Hope you all are having a good week, I am slowly working through my latest London photos and will get them uploaded soon.

Location Information
The Golden Lane Estate is a 1950s council housing complex in the City of London. It was built on the northern edge of the City, in an area devastated by bombing during World War II.
Popularly known as the "Skull and Crossbones Nebula, NGC 2467 is an active star-forming region in the constellation Puppis. The presence of large hydrogen gas clouds are a key ingredient required for the creation of new stars.
Observations of the many stars in NGC 2467 suggest that they may be more a superposition of loose groups of stars at different distances than a coherent open cluster of stars energizing the nebula. I guess it really depends on one's perspective in the universe, but from here, I think it looks awesome.
If you look towards the right off centre, there is what appears to be a bright gas wall. The newly formed stars are slowing devouring this glowing rift. Moving towards the centre, there are many dark dust lanes obscuring parts of the nebula. Within these areas, the process of forming new stars is taking place. Several Bok globules can be seen as well (these are dark globule structures). They are very similar to those found in the Running Chicken Nebula. Infrared detectors can cut through the dust in these areas and create amazing images of the process of newborn stars. Unfortunately, my camera does not allow me to look into these areas.
My aims with this project were fairly simple. I wanted to highlight the dust lanes and bok globulus within the nebula. These areas simply add a layer of depth into the final result. The RGB palette is my preference in astrophotography. But I really wanted the extra details available in the narrowband data that I captured. Merging such different data sets into a single image that resembles a traditional RGB rendition can be challenging. Hopefully, the result isn’t too far off base and pleasing to look at.

How frustrating it is when the battery in the clock on the wall goes dead and you've misplaced your store of new ones.
This is the Energizer Bunny that advertises the well known brand of batteries. I just think he is so cute and some of the ads are amazing. A few years ago he went through the Bermuda Triangle in one of their ads and came out on the other side; I think that was the best one I have ever seen. I think they should sell the Pink Bunny as a stuffed toy. I had a tiny model of it, but can't find it now. These ads appear regularly on TV.
The AD of course says "Energizer" but I just changed it because I think we all need to do this as I guess most of us have been a bit too homeward bound due to the Pandemic!!
