There's a sunrise and a sunset every single day, and they're absolutely free.
If you want to be reminded of the love of the Lord, just watch the sunrise.
The secret to a good morning is to watch the sunrise with an open heart.
Be the morning in everyone's eyes and make their day turn into a thing of beauty.

Shrouded in dense jungle the temple of Ta Prohm is ethereal in aspect and conjures up a romantic aura. Fig, banyan and kapok trees spread their gigantic roots over stones, probing walls and terraces apart, as their branches and leaves intertwine to form a roof over the structures. Trunks of trees twist amongst stone pillars. The strange, haunted charm of the place entwines itself about you as you go, as inescapably as the roots have wound themselves about the walls and towers.

Ta Prohm temple at Angkor, Cambodia, built in Bayon style largely in the late 12th and early 13th centuries and originally called Rajavihara. It was founded by the Khmer King Jayavarman VII as a Mahayana Buddhist monastery and university. Unlike most Angkorian temples, Ta Prohm has been left in much the same condition in which it was found: the photogenic and atmospheric combination of trees growing out of the ruins and the jungle surroundings.

Just outside the house we stayed in was this mysterious stone building with fig trees growing out of it
This is an environment I love and have been exploring. And as a result I have taken every scientist I know that would come into such terrain so that together we could identify, record and explain what was there: plants, fauna, geology, landforms, scenery aesthetics and fire history. It has been a fascinating journey, and we have succeeded in advocating for this landscape to transition from forestry to national park protected area! It is an exciting story.
As Kingaham Creek descends from the plateau formed at the junction of the Yabba and Jimna Ranges, it courses over a variety of geologies including Kingaham granite, Amamoor beds of metamorphic rocks, Gallangowan granodiorite, and here it begins it descent over greenstone. Bonsai Falls and Broken Femur Falls are sculpted in greenstone but then a basaltic dyke crosses the gorge creating a barrier with a deep pool eroded behind it and Blue Dyke Falls plunging over the dyke.
Photographed are 3 Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service staff who were following through on my discovery of a rock wallaby population in this vicinity. Camera traps were set up, rock wallabies and other species recorded, and DNA identification is now to be undertaken to identify the species or if in fact they may be a hybrid of 2 possible spp.

It is the only time I saw the flock of them feeding on the big fig tree in Lamington NP (Lost World section), not the best quality shot, just as a record.

My first thought was that this grand tree had the same stance as magicians when they're doing magic and saying "Hocus Pocus"
Happy TREE-mendous Tuesday
A Sanskrit inscription on stone, still in place, give details of the temple. Ta Prohm 3,140 villages. It took 79,365 people to maintain the temple including 18 great priests, 2,740 officials, 2,202 assistants and 615 dancers. Among the property belonging to the temple was a set of golden dishes weighing more than 500 kilograms, 35 diamonds, 40,620 pearls, 4,540 precious stones, 876 veils from China, 512 silk beds and 523 parasols. Even considering that these numbers were probably exaggerated to glorify the king, Ta Prohm must have been an important and impressive monument.

Thank you for your favourites. :O)

I was out and about in the forest yesterday with the feeling that something was watching me but I could not figure it out as all I could see was an old fig tree which I captured with my phone.
It must have just been the low mist on the forest floor that spooked me. HSS
Walking throught the apulian countryside is usual to find secular fig trees in the middle of wheat fields kissed by sun.
