Sakharibazar, Old Dhaka, 2011

 

Normal people with extraordinary lifestyles

Along with smile and the gloomy, here life has its own rhyme, has its own colour.

Time passed by, humanity changed along with its history...

But these people remained here tolerating the hardest truth of existences

..........its their story of extraordinary existences.

 

Sakharibazar, Old Dhaka. A very interesting place for all of us to visit. Culture and customs of old Dhaka are the tribute to the ancient history of Bangladesh. Peoples still living in 100 years old building from generations after generations. With the reflection of their religious beauty Old Dhaka attracts peoples from here and abroad.

 

Shakhari Bazaar is one of the oldest mohallas (a traditional neighbourhood) in Puran Dhaka (Old Dhaka), located near the intersection of Islampur Road and Nawabpur Road;the two main arteries of the old city and only a block away from the Buriganga River. Shakhari Bazaar stretches along a narrow lane, lined with thin slices of richly decorated brick buildings, built during the late Mughal or Colonial period. Despite rampant modifications, accretion, extension over time, even redevelopment, many still bear the testimony of a rich tradition.

 

Shakhari Bazaar is the manifestation of the irrational policies, lack of adequate development control rules and distorted legal framework, all of which have left their indelible mark on this precious little mohalla that shares a long history of more than 400 years with Dhaka city itself.The history of Shakhari Bazaar goes back to the pre-Mughal days if not earlier. The first mention of Puran Dhaka can be found in the writings of Mirza Nathan, the general turned historian, who traveled with Subahdar Islam Khan. He mentioned Puran Dhaka, as the area between Dholai Khal and Buriganga river covering Shakhari Bazaar, Tanti Bazaar, Bangla Bazaar, Lakhsmi Bazaar, Bangla Bazaar, Kamar Nagar, Sutar Nagar, Goala Nagar, etc. Each mohalla belonged to separate communities depending on their craft and trade. The influences of the Mughal vocabulary in the planning of the spaces are literally evident in the use of Persian names to identify different spaces..

Le Secret is

 

What you are basically, deep deep down, far far in, is simply the fabric and structure of existence itself. Reality itself is gorgeous, it is the plenum, the fullness of total joy. Wowee! And all those stars, if you look out in the skies, is a fireworks display, like you see on the 4th of July, which is a great occasion for celebration. The universe is a celebration. It is a fireworks show to celebrate that existence is. Wowee.

 

This is the real secret of life: to be completely engaged with what you are doing in the here and now, and instead of calling it "work," realize that this is play.

The sun sets behind Mount Agung.

 

Bali, Indonesia.

 

---

 

Mount Agung or Gunung Agung is a mountain in Bali, Indonesia. This stratovolcano is the highest point on the island. It dominates the surrounding area, influencing the climate. The clouds come from the west and Agung takes their water so that the west is lush and green while the east dry and barren.

 

The Balinese believe that Mount Agung is a replica of Mount Meru, the central axis of the universe. One legend holds that the mountain is a fragment of Meru brought to Bali by the first Hindus. The most important temple on Bali, Pura Besakih, is located high on the slopes of Gunung Agung.

  

Gunung Agung last erupted in 1963-1964 and is still active, with a large and very deep crater which occasionally belches smoke and ash. From a distance, the mountain appears to be perfectly conical, despite the existence of the large crater.

Video from 3 years ago,

L'existence est un éternel ballet d'allées et venues.

 

En somme, exister, c'est transgresser les frontières, fussent-elles aussi anecdotiques que celle d'une porte.

  

Et encore, certaines portes sont loin d'être anecdotiques.

 

Et très heureuse année 2024 !

The glow on the horizon is actually light pollution from mountains area and valleys to the south. Despite the light pollution the Milky Way shines bright and vivid over the strange natural pillars

The bearded old man emerged from nothingness, his wide wings sprawling like black sails, cutting through the pale clouds. His crimson head represented a drop of hot blood in a cold landscape, his eyes bearing a history of unity and victory. He descended to declare his dominance over this colony.Below him, where his eyes descended, the truth of time was revealed in stark contrast: towering cedar trees breathing greenery, living testaments to the inextinguishable power of life, standing next to dry, crooked trunks, bare wooden ruins, like arms succumbing to the horror of the years and the tattoo of time's curse. With every flapping of his wings, the silent predator announced his loud, complete presence. His story with these mysterious atmospheres and with the ancient cedars is far from over. It is the spirit of the place that has not grown old, descending to tell again tales that no one else dared to whisper.

These weeds have been the bane of my existence for the last few days. But before yanking them all out, I decided to take a closer look at the flowers with my camera. They look better when viewed like this. (and a little post processing)

 

View On Black

This lonely cottonwood tree seems sentenced to an isolated existence trapped in a massive Entrada sandstone prison cell. An incredible location that I was able to visit earlier this year located near Dancehall Rock in Utah's Escalante Staircase National Monument.

This panorama consists of 16 separate images stitched together covering nearly 180° of the horizon.

Les aléas de la vie en couple (Lisbonne 2018)

Beyond the edge of the world there’s a space where emptiness and substance neatly overlap, where past and future form a continuous, endless loop.

 

And, hovering about, there are signs no one has ever read, chords no one has ever heard.

 

― Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore

Take me out to sea

Away from you and me

Let me float

Lead me out to sea

Let me go

Let me rise towards the sky

Let me take in this light

Let the shore disappear from sight

 

I'm caught in your undertow....

Lush vegetation surrounds the ruins of the Deep Valley of the Mills in Sorrento.

 

The name âValley of the Millsâ, derives from the existence of a mill â functioning since the â900â²s â used for grinding wheat. Attached to the mill, rose a sawmill which furnished chaff to the Sorrentine cabinet makers. The creation of Tasso Square in 1866 cut off the mill area from the sea, increasing the humidity of the valley, making it unsuitable for a mill.
