'Borges Tiger' - Sketch for a reflection of the true nature of the everpresent power that is within us all, exsisting outside of time, within the eternal now, one eye to the past, one eye to the future, forever in the moment.
'..Let the mystery writ upon the jaguars die with me. He who has glimpsed the universe, he who has glimpsed the burning designs of the universe, can have no thought for a man, for a man’s trivial joys or calamities, though he himself be that man.' - Borges
The installation features stainless steel beams, measuring 20 feet in height, which provide a scale model version of the Twin Towers. The design in the steel frame includes “gaps” that echo the impact points of the jet planes during the terrorist attack. The gaps are designed to create a “rising cross,” which will be highlighted with yellow, orange and red stained glass.
The “rising cross” design element of the installation is meant to symbolize Christ’s great love and self-sacrifice for humanity. The cross, centered in the monument, reminds us that God was present in the midst of the crisis. It invites us to look carefully in order to see the everpresent God.

The 9/11 Memorial monument of the Archdiocese of Newark’s Catholic Cemeteries is being built to remember those who lost their lives during the September 11, 2001 tragedy. In addition, the monument is meant to honor the many individuals who came to the aid of others in need, during and after the tragedy.
The 9/11 Memorial will first be shown at Holy Cross Cemetery in North Arlington, N.J., during a brief and simple unveiling at the cemetery’s annual Memorial Day Mass.
On Sept. 11, a full Mass will be celebrated at Holy Cross Cemetery, where first responders, survivors, dignitaries, government officials and fellow parishioners will gather to remember and pray for the fallen victims. During that ceremony, Newark Archbishop John Myers will officially bless the memorial, marking the 10-year anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

Apostle Iceland National Lake Shore Ice Caves. Cornucopia, Wisconsin. A trio walks into the wind. The rock and ice are everpresent here. Colors. Contrast.
By now it's a very familiar place--Pete's Access Point. It's our 5th visit to the Massasauga Park!
And the everpresent sign in the background saying, "You are in Bear Country". I don't know why but I always think it says, "You are in BEER Country"! Perhaps it's because of the two LCBO outlets that are located very close to the park (Moon River Marina and Frying Pan Island), both of which I've visited a few times--and expect to visit on this trip too. And by the way, we did not see any bears on this trip!

To get to Dreamcatcher Adventures involved 4 hours (150km) on hydro access / logging roads beneath the power lines of the James Bay Project. The hum from the lines was everpresent.

I headed to Bridlewood Wetlands for a few minutes after work. It appears that the grebes are gone but the everpresent mallards and coots provide lovely portraits. There was also the scaup and some female ruddy ducks.
If you look carefully at this photo of the Alaska Hwy. you'll see another vehicle.

Sundogs have been everpresent lately, some right at ground level.

All these photos were taken from the back verandah of the train compartment. It was necessary to set the camera on a fast shutter speed to reduce the everpresent potential for foreground object blur. I quickly gave up on taking any photos from inside the cabin due to reflections and distortion due to curved glass.
Shooting from out on the back verandah had its problems also as the speed of the train meant one often had just seconds to see a photo opportunity and then compose a shot. Finding a clear view through rapidly approaching trees, power and phone poles and lines was indeed challenging.
If the British Columbia government wants to do something for tourism it should embark on a plan to tidy up the eyesores posed by the communications and power infrastructure along this entire route.
In shot selection, given the speeding train and the constancy of avoiding objects close to the tracks, I found it best to focus on long views, trying to keep foreground blur in the lower one third of of the frame or off to one side. I figured that the blur could be edited out later. This mostly did prove to be a good strategy.

Shot in LoDo, 1997. This upscale, trendy section of downtown Denver wasn't always the ultra-hip attraction it is today. In fact, it wasn't long ago that Market Street was more commonly known as 'Heroin Alley'.
The building in the background was one of the last lingering reminders of LoDo's shadowy history. When I shot this in 1997, The building had been abandoned for decades, or at least it looked that way; few panes of glass remained in the windows, replaced in quantity by the incoherent writings and graffiti of countless squatters and addicts. The smell of human waste was everpresent, and the property was littered with bottles, needles, and the like. Nevertheless, I discovered this was still "home" to a swell of homeless people. In all, I saw at least 100 people who lived there at the time.
The subject of this picture was a current resident of the fine piece of LoDo real estate. Aged 14 years at the time, living on his own since he was 12. I offered him a pack of smokes for his trouble, which he gladly accepted, but he didn't seem comfortable with much else, and darted off to 'his place' post-haste.
I was in Denver recently, and noticed that the building in this picture no longer exists -- It made me wonder what this kid is up to these days....
That is, if he made it to the ripe old age of 22.

The definitive crown jewel of Central Park, Bethesda Fountain is one of the most famous and universally loved fountains in the world. Designed by Emma Stebbins and unveleiled in 1873, the centerpiece of the "Angel of the Waters" was the only sculpture commissioned as part of the original design of the Park making her the first woman to receive a commission for a major work of art in New York City.
Located on the lower level of Bethesda Terrace, this neoclassical winged female figure symbolizes and celebrates the purifying of the city’s water supply when the Croton Aqueduct opened in 1842 bringing fresh water to all New Yorkers. For this reason she carries a lily, the symbol of purity in one hand while her other hand extends outward as she blesses the water below.
The stimulus for the idea of the "Angel of the Waters" comes from the Gospel of Saint John, Chapter 5, the story of an angel bestowing healing powers on the pool of Bethesda in Jerusalem. Beneath the eight-foot gilded bronze statue are four smaller four-foot figures symbolizing Temperance, Purity, Health, and Peace. The base of the fountain was designed by Calvert Vaux with detail work by Jacob Wrey Mould.

The set of 'In The Heights' features a typical Washington Heights streetcorner, with the everpresent George Washington Bridge in the background.
It was a bright sunny October day , when I took these last photos, about 10 days ago... The pot Bougainvillea you can see from the window out on the patio , has now moved into the green house to overwinter, like some more frost sensitive -- for the Belgian Winters --perennials.
I love Fairies! In my heart I know they exist somehow...The everpresent child inside (me) likes a lot these sort of lovely delicate Fairies you see here..This one is my mostly loved one among my..."window Fairies"... I did not capture her as pretty as she REALLY is, though...
Better experienced large (pleeease...)

Asterism
071 / 365 [Project 365]
Although Orion is my favourite constellation, Ursa Major, being one of our everpresent circumpolar friends here in Britain, was probably the first pattern of stars which I learned to love and look for upon any given starry night as a child. 'The Great Bear'. 'The Big Dipper', 'The Saucepan', and 'The Plough'. are just a few of the more common names given to this sequence of stars familiar to most residents of the Northern Hemisphere. Pointing the way to Polaris, Ursa Major has for millennia been a welcome guide of celestial navigation to many a disoriented traveller...

The sun highlights the turquoise waters of the Bay and the clouds cast shadows over the lush rugged mountains of Kauai's north coast. (If the photo were larger you would be able to see the numerous waterfalls, that because of the 300 + inches of rainfall that fall in the mountains, are everpresent in this part of Kauai.) This photo was taken from Princeville high above the Bay. We are looking across the Bay at the funky, snorkling, surfing and honeymoon town of Hanalei and its curved two mile long fabulous beach. The town became famous in the 1960's as the place where hippies and surfers came to escape from urban life and was memorialized by the song "Puff the Magic Dragon". Hanalei remains unspoiled today. The place is heaven on earth and I love it when I'm there. This year (2009) Hanalei Beach was named the best beach in the United States by Dr. Beach.

Nogorongoro Crater, Tanzania
“A fool can throw a stone in a pond that 100 wise men can not get out”
--Saul Bellow
(more so if there are hippos in the pond)
A view of the hippo pond in the Ngorongoro Crater.
During the day it's very hard to see the hippos because they liek to stay underwater and only their eyes and nosestrills are exposed.
During the night they come out to feed, but they are incredibly dangerous.
Each dark bump in the pond is a hippo.
And of course in the distance the everpresent clouds spilling over the crater walls.
