She was a mirror and I saw myself
more kindly. And she took me up.

Chiamalo Amore se non sa oscurarsi nel buio più cieco, e chiamalo Amore se anche la sua ombra ti fa luce.
Tu chiamalo Amore, perchè non ha altro nome un momento... eterno.

For over 4,000 years Mother Nature has thrown everything she had at this tree... Unbearable cold, blizzards, gale force winds, drought, searing heat, earthquakes, and unrepentant tourists, and The Guardian has weathered every storm, every threat, every challenge and remained standing, though it succumbed to inevitable mortality over 500 years ago.
This ancient bristlecone pine, situated with one other tree on the edge of a steep slope in the White Mountains has been the subject of countless photographs under a variety of conditions. I was here with a group for an astrophotography workshop, and although I am pleased with some of the images I captured later that night, this one is the one that stands out above all others.
During the last weekend in August, the daytime high temperatures - even at 9,000' elevation - were above 80° F, and at nearly 8 PM, still holding in the upper-60s, while Bishop and Big Pine in the Owens Valley below, roasted in the 90s and 100s. The heat of the valley combined with the cool air crossing the ridge tops above the Sierras to the west create interesting weather and clouds in the late afternoon, which seemed daunting initially, but cleared soon after sunset to allow for clear skies when it was time to capture the galactic core of the Milky Way above.

Un grand merci à tous pour vos visites, vos commentaires, et favoris aussi qui sont toujours très appréciés.
Le Geai des chênes est un oiseau commun qu'on entend plus facilement qu'on ne voit. Ses cris éraillés sonores sont désagréables à l'oreille humaine et il n'en est pas avare. Il est assez farouche vis à vis de l'homme et préfère garder ses distances.
Ce n'est pas pour rien qu'on l'appelle Geai des chênes car il est friand de glands qui constituent près de 50% de son alimentation en été puis qu'il cache en automne pour l'hiver.
Ces oiseaux ont une excellente mémoire visuelle et sont capables de retrouver leur nourriture même sous la neige...

A big thank you to all for your visits, your comments, and your favorites too, which are always very much appreciated.
The Eurasian Jay is a common bird that can be heard more easily than seen. His loud hoarse cries are unpleasant to human ears and he is not stingy with them. He is quite fierce towards humans and prefers to keep his distance.
It is not for nothing that it is called Jay of the oaks because it is fond of acorns which constitute nearly 50% of its diet in summer then that it hides in autumn for the winter.
These birds have an excellent visual memory and are able to find their food even under the snow ...

Besides its importance as a fragrance, lavender is considered calming to those with nervous tension. Lavender oil is sometimes rubbed into the temples for head pain, added to bath water for an anxiety-reducing bath, or put on a cotton ball and placed inside a pillowcase to treat insomnia. Lavender oil also works as an antiseptic making it a natural treatment option for skin disorders (sourced from HowStuffWorks).

Questo maschio, un 15 punte e l'altro più distante, un 18 punte, se le sono date di santa ragione, (da notare le ferite lungo il fianco assalite dalle mosche), nella speranza vana che la femmina in calore, che si intravede sdraiata davanti a loro, cedesse alle loro lusinghe. Nascosto sotto un telo mimetico dopo 2 ore di cammino in montagna con il peso dello zaino fotografico sulle spalle. Foto no crop. Abruzzo - PNALM
Deer. This male, one 15 points and the other more distant, an 18 points, if they are given of right reason, (to notice the wounds along the side assaulted by the flies), in the vain hope that the female in heat, that can be glimpsed lying in front of them, she succumbed to their flattery. Hidden under a camouflage sheet after 2 hours of walking in the mountains with the weight of the photo backpack on the shoulders. No crop photos. Abruzzo - PNALM

Ces filtres d'orient qui parfument le désert
Un mélange de fibres où l’or se mêle au vert
Comme dans un moule ou le miel blond et la semoule
Enferme des éclats d’amandes et de pistaches
Comme on voit le nombril des danseuses orientales
Qui dansent au son d’une musique instrumentale
Se mettre en mouvement pour vous faire chavirer
Cette tapisserie de brins tissés aux riches couleurs
De l’orient s’anime et fait chanter les vers
Comme un rideau de perles fines au bras du vent
