Day 1 of 20 of albums that influenced my musical tastes. I'll start with Standing on a Beach. I remember listening this CD everyday in my high school years, in my house or in my friend's room, feeding our minds with these dark sounds and some bright musical notes, creating our perfect soundtrack for the teenager.
The album was titled Staring at the Sea in CD format in some countries is the first greatest hits album by the English band the Cure, released in the United States on 15 May 1986 by Elektra Records and in the United Kingdom on 19 May 1986 by Fiction Records, marking a decade since the band's founding in 1976. (Wikipedia)
It's been 40 years of The Cure, 40 years of this deep powerful music. This special song takes me back to my high school years when I discovered real friendship and music.
"...It's not a case of telling the truth
Some lines just fit the situation
Call me a liar
You would anyway
It's not a case of aiming to please
You know you're always crying
It's just your part
In the play for today"

in a world where everything is for sale, this beauty is for everyone and free. You just need your legs and your heart.
My best wishes for Christmas and the new year for all of you !

Non in vendita
in un mondo dove tutto è in vendita, questa bellezza non lo è. Bastano le tue gambe ed il tuo cuore.
Auguri di buone feste a tutti voi.

At Pashley Manor Gardens you will discover 11 acres of beautiful borders and vistas – the culmination of a lifetime of passion for gardening, an appetite for beauty and an admiration of the tradition of the English Country garden. These graceful gardens, on the border of Sussex and Kent, are family owned and maintained – visitors often express delight at the attention to detail displayed throughout and the intimate, peaceful atmosphere.
All the ingredients of the English Country Garden are present – sweeping herbaceous borders, ha-ha, well maintained lawns, box hedges, espaliered rose walk, historic walled garden, inspiring kitchen garden, venerable trees and the Grade I listed house as a backdrop. The gardens are a haven for wildlife – bees, butterflies and small birds as well as moor hens, ducks and a black swan. Then, of course, the plants! Borders overflowing with perennials and annuals – the look changing through the seasons, but always abundantly filled, and each garden ‘room’ planted in a different colour theme.
Pashley is also renowned for fantastic displays of tulips, roses and dahlias. Our annual Tulip Festival features more than 48,000 tulips this year! During Special Rose Week over a hundred varieties of rose swathe the walls, climb obelisks and bloom in flower beds. Then in late summer our Dahlia Days event transforms the gardens once more with bountiful, brightly coloured dahlias in every border and pot.
Add to all this a Café and Terrace with excellent garden views, serving delicious homemade lunches, scones and cakes; Sculpture and Art Exhibitions; a Gift Shop with Plant Sales; and a friendly, knowledgeable team waiting to welcome you, and the recipe for a wonderful day out is complete.

My dear friend Joan takes incredible bird photos. I struggle with finding birds, especially this time of year, and if I do this is not my forte. I was lucky enough to come across this beautiful young eagle. I added texture to make it a bit more dramatic (not that he is not dramatic enough), I just felt it needed something.
I hope you enjoy this Joan, and please feel free to give me advice!!!!
Thanks for viewing all!
look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.”
~ Audrey Hepburn quote.
Blood for freedom
You're pushing me into the corner
Don't fight with me
Don't fight with me
Don't fight with me
I'm crowning no man for his armour or Rhapsody
For what I see and what I feel
Wake up
I'm defying you, seeing right through you once I believed in you
Wake up
Feel what's coming deep within we all know
Blood for freedom
So raise your banner, fight your war
Break the silence, no remorse
Won't die within
Raise your banner, won't you come
Fight the venom, the good die young
Won't die within
I'm feeling the eyes of the fallen, they're watching me
They make me see, they make me see
I'm feeling the pain how you break them and make them bleed
You make them bleed, you make them bleed
Wake up
I'm defying you, seeing right through you once I believed in you
Wake up
Feel what's coming deep within we all know
The way that you torment me
The way that you challenge me
The way that you make me bleed
Blood for freedom.

Thanks for stopping by ! May you have a nice weekend !!
每年四月初是華盛頓特區 (Washington DC) 觀光的熱季。不單單因為天氣變暖適合出遊,也因為遍地開花, 整座城像淹沒在花海裏。最出名的是櫻花,來自日本,東京在1912年送了三千株櫻花給華盛頓, 大部分被種在西南角潮汐池(Tidal Basin)的周圍,以及緊臨的East Potomac Park。 數量最多的吉野櫻和台灣常見的品種不太一樣,顏色是白裏透著淡淡粉紅,在不同角度不同光線下會有微妙變化的色澤。 花只是單瓣,但盛開時整棵樹整片綻放,臨水映花,像沒有明天般燃燒生命。

Taken at Point Leo on the Mornington Peninsula while spending some quality time with friends. They indulged me in not rushing me too much once I spotted this scene and starting shooting it. Thanks for that guys!
There is a tradition of adding padlocks to railings on bridges in parts of the world that this scene made me feel instantly.

I went to look for the chamois again today, and although they showed up they didn’t seem pleased that I had brought my mom along... they made a big show of giving warning calls and sprinting towards cover while not appearing particularly nervous. (They do remind me a bit of cats.) As I didn’t manage to capture their show very well I took a few flower shots instead...

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

Dispelled,
The dream in my wet eyes
Alarmed,
With me standing, the dawn
Demands a break from me
Of whose blessed breath
I may bring news
This nation of life-weary
Deep in my soul, though
Breaks
A thorn
O, of this long journey
Poetry of Nima Youshij
Translated from Persian

For my child and your child too 🎶Bowie

A lot of questions have been asked. And just a few answers. The answer may has been said, but we didn't realize it. Watch carefuly for it, it may come from the most unlikely place, from the light or from the shadow. Or be ignorant and just don't ask. It makes your life easier, but...
We need to wake up
We need to wise up
We need to open our eyes
And do it now now now
We need to build a better future
And we need to start right now
We're on a planet
That has a problem
We've got to solve it, get involved
And do it now now now
We need to build a better future
And we need to start right now
Make it greener
Make it cleaner
Make it last, make it fast
and do it now now now
We need to build a better future
And we need to start right now
No point in waiting
Or hesitating
We must get wise, take no more lies
And do it now now-now
We need to build a better future
And we need to start right now.

ISETTA...c 1961.
Room for tiny tots on the parcel shelf also...
This B.M.W. was fitted with working indicators...which makes it even more unusual.
I'm leaving today for the south....a couple of months.
Will be on Flickr sporadically.
Enjoy the rest of the winter/summer.
Mostly.......be well.
Smile on Saturday: #BlueForYouME
When I saw all the blue heart emojis in the comments on some photos in the Smile on Saturday group today, I had a last minute idea for the "Blue For You - ME 2019" theme on this special day :-) It certainly is a lovely coincidence that it's not only M for M&Ms, but also M for Maria as well :-)
So here's a big thank you for the "blue heart inspiration", dear group members, and today also especially to Maria Godfrida for making this group such a creative and friendly place and for all the work she puts into it every week.
HSoS, Everyone!
Als ich heute die vielen blauen Herz-Emojis in einigen Kommentaren zu Fotos in der Smile-on-Saturday-Gruppe gesehen habe, kam mir die (Last-Minute-)Idee, für das "Blue-for-You"-Thema ein M&M-Herz zu legen und in Wasser aufzulösen. Das Thema ist ja ein ganz spezielles zum heutigen (11.05.) Internationalen Tag der Fibromyalgie. Danke also an die Gruppenmitglieder für die Inspiration zum Foto. Und natürlich an Maria Godfrida, die diese Gruppe zu so einem kreativen und angenehmen Ort gemacht hat und jede Woche so viel Arbeit hineinsteckt [und da passt es doch ganz gut, dass die M&Ms mit einem "M" - heute mal für Maria - bedruckt sind ;-)].
Ich wünsche Euch ein schönes Wochenende, liebe Flickr-Freunde!
The male Great Blue Heron presenting a branch for nest building to the excited female. They make quite a show of this age old ritual. We as humans forget that all types of animals show emotion. Photography can capture that for all to see.

Your eyes may be whole
But the story I'm told
Is that your heart is as black as night
Your lips may be sweet
Such that I can't compete
But your heart is as black as night
I don't know why you came along
At such a perfect time
But if I let you hang around
I'm bound to lose my mind ......
