Son passati già due anni, ma mi pare ieri...
ricordo perfettamente questa foto, la sua costruzione e a chi pensavo di dedicarla, un amico che ama i lampioni e che però da più di un anno non ritorna su Flickr.
Sorry, to me is very difficult to visit people that always only leave a fav without commenting...

when i downloaded this image from my camera i knew instantly that i needed to convert it to black & white with just a bit of tint. to me i can better appreciate this flower's beautiful form, its graceful lines and subtle textures, without the distraction of colors.
225 days to go before my next trip to the Philippines.
Minimalist photography
is a form of photography that is distinguished by extreme, austere simplicity. It emphasizes spareness and focuses solely on the smallest number of objects in the composition process. Minimalist photographers usually focus solely on one particular subject, rather than an abundance of color, patterns and information. ( wikipedia )
I love learning new stuff in photography, and some techniques requires allot of time to learn and understand..... witch I have a hard time to do . This is minimal as can be ( I think)

El dragón de Komodo, endémico de la isla del mismo nombre, es el lagarto más grande del mundo. El Parque Nacional se fundó en 1980 con el objetivo de proteger a esta especie amenazada y desde 1991 forma parte del Patrimonio de la Humanidad.
Alto Caparaó is known throughout the national territory for its natural beauty, and is one of the most beautiful regions in terms of ecotourism destinations for those who love and appreciate nature. A region of beautiful mountains that form a valley that surrounds the city, with an exuberant landscape, Alto Caparaó invites us to feel the fresh air, bathe in crystalline waters and fall in love with the climate and its natural beauties.
Pyramid Lake is a reservoir formed by Pyramid Dam on Piru Creek in the eastern San Emigdio Mountains, near Castaic, Southern California. It is a part of the West Branch California Aqueduct, which is a part of the California State Water Project. Its water is fed by the system after being pumped up from the San Joaquin Valley and through the Tehachapi Mountains.
In 1843, gold was discovered near what is now Pyramid Lake, in the Santa Feliciana Canyon, just south of what is now Pyramid Dam. The small find failed to trigger a rush to the mountainous countryside. Only Francisco Lopes, owner of Rancho Temescal, a Mexican land grant, and a handful of ranchers attempted to settle the region.
This lake was created in 1972, and completed in 1973, as a holding reservoir for the California State Water Project. The lake was named after a pyramid-shaped rock carved out by engineers building U.S. Route 99. Travelers between Los Angeles and Bakersfield christened the landmark “Pyramid Rock,” which still stands just adjacent to the dam.
Pyramid Lake is the deepest lake in the California Water Project system, built up along the steep canyon walls surrounding Piru Creek.
The 180,000 acre⋅ft (220,000,000 m3) reservoir lies on the border between the Angeles National Forest and the Los Padres National Forest, in the northwestern portion of Los Angeles County. It is to the west of Interstate 5 (I-5) south of Tejon Pass. The former alignment of US 99 is below the waters here, replaced by I-5.
Pyramid Lake seen from the air with the Pacific Ocean in the distance. Just below the dam, Piru Creek returns to its natural state as it winds down through the Topatopa Mountains to feed into the Lake Piru reservoir and later the Santa Clara River. Pumps carry water from Pyramid Lake to Castaic Lake, which is the terminus of the west branch of the aqueduct. Pyramid and Castaic act as the upper and lower reservoirs for a 1,495-megawatt pumped storage hydroelectric plant.

Silent Lucidity
Queensrÿche
Hush now don't cry
Wipe away the teardrop from your eye
You're lying safe in bed
It was all a bad dream
Spinning in your head
Your mind tricked you to feel the pain
Of someone close to you leaving the game of life
So here it is, another chance
Wide awake you face the day
Your dream is over
Or has it just begun?
There's a place I like to hide
A doorway that I run to in the night
Relax child, you were there
But only didn't realize it and you were scared
It's a place where you will learn
To face your fears, retrace the years
And ride the whims of your mind
Commanding in another world
Suddenly, you hear and see
This magic new dimension
I will be watching over you
I am gonna help you see it through
I will protect you in the night
I am smiling next to you, in silent lucidity
Visualize your dream
Record it in the present tense
Put it into a permanent form
If you persist in your efforts
You can achieve dream control
Dream control
How's that then, better?
Dream control
Dream control (hug me)
Dream control
Hug me
If you open your mind for me
You won't rely on open eyes to see
The walls you built within
Come tumbling down, and a new world will begin
Living twice at once you learn
You're safe from pain in the dream domain
A soul set free to fly
A round trip journey in your head
Master of illusion, can you realize
Your dream's alive, you can be the guide but
I will be watching over you
I am gonna help you see it through
I will protect you in the night
I am smiling next to you

Los estromatolitos poco a poco van enlazando las piedras del río formando figuras como estas.
Estos estromatolitos son estructuras minerales originadas por la actividad metabólica de las cianobacterias presentes en sus aguas.
¿Por qué este río es tan especial para la ciencia?
Durante mucho tiempo las aguas del Tinto se creyeron carentes de vida, hasta el punto de que se plantearon procesos para la limpieza de "su contaminación", que afortunadamente no llegaron a desarrollarse. Y en cierto modo sí que parece un río estéril porque no hay organismos eucariotas superiores en sus aguas; sin embargo, su biodiversidad es enorme: se han descrito más de 1.100 especies distintas de hongos y un centenar de algas, además de protistas y bacterias.
La aparente contaminación del río no es tal, sino que se trata del resultado de un complejo proceso de interacción entre las comunidades bacterianas que lo habitan y el sustrato. Algunas bacterias presentes en el río no obtienen su energía al quemar con oxígeno la glucosa y otros nutrientes como hacemos gran parte de los seres vivos, sino que la obtienen a expensas de los minerales que afloran de la franja pirítica de Huelva.
Por tanto, las condiciones de extrema acidez y de elevadas concentraciones de iones férrico y sulfato en las aguas del Tinto son debidas a la actividad quimiolitotrófica de los microorganismos que lo habitan y que son capaces de oxidar los sulfuros metálicos, en alta concentración en la zona de afloramiento del Tinto.
Lo que hace del Tinto un lugar especial para el estudio de las posibilidades de existencia de vida en Marte es que los seres vivos que lo habitan no han llegado de otros lugares y se han adaptado a este medio tan extremo, sino que han ido evolucionando en el propio río y han ido modulando el medio en el que viven.
El conocimiento de todo esto nos debe llevar a la necesidad de defender la protección de ese ecosistema tan excepcional, por eso es muy lamentable que los vertidos que muy a menudo transforman en los últimos tiempos la coloración de sus aguas (probablemente procedentes del vertedero de residuos tóxicos de Nerva), o la reapertura de la mina estén deteriorándolo muy rápidamente.

So many forces act to provide these forms and lines – geologic upthrust and erosive carving, where the light falls and how the winds prevail, patterns of moisture and light that determine the growth of trees and shrubs. In the Wasatch Mountains, near Salt Lake City.

La sede della preveggenza nell'arte astratta risiede nell'anima dell'artista, nel suo universo interiore di emozioni, intuizioni e spiritualità, da cui scaturisce la necessità di liberare una "verità più profonda" che va oltre la realtà visibile, usando forme e colori puri per comunicare concetti e stati d'animo, come sosteneva Kandinskij, pioniere di questa ricerca di una dimensione "interiore" dell'arte.
In sintesi, la preveggenza nell'arte astratta non è predizione del futuro, ma la capacità dell'artista di percepire e comunicare l'essenza nascosta delle cose, attingendo a un livello di conoscenza intuitivo e spirituale, rendendo l'opera un ponte tra il mondo interiore e la percezione dello spettatore.

The female Eastern Tiger Swallowtail butterfly can take two completely different forms. The more common (at least to me) yellow morph with the black tiger stripes, and this beautiful dark morph. This is the first dark one I have seen this summer.
Hoh Rainforest is one of the largest temperate rainforests in the U.S., located on the Olympic Peninsula in western Washington state.[1] It includes 24 miles (39 km) of low elevation forest 394 to 2,493 feet (120 to 760 m) along the Hoh River. The Hoh River valley was formed thousands of years ago by glaciers.
Akdamar Island is the largest island on Lake Van. The first Armenian settlement founded in the 4th century AD. It was the former capital of the Armenian kingdom. The structures formed in the 10th century there is only visible in the picture church of St. Cross. The outer walls are reliefs of scenes from the Bible and the life of King Gagik. In 2007, after restoration of the church, he is open to the public as a museum.

Wyspa Akdamar jest największą wyspą na jeziorze Wan. Pierwsza osada ormiańska powstała już w IV wieku naszej ery. Była to dawna stolica królestwa Ormiańskiego. Z budowli powstałych w X wieku pozostał tylko widoczny na zdjęciu kościół św. Krzyża. Na zewnętrznych ścianach znajdują się reliefy scen z Biblii oraz życia Króla Gagika. W 2007 roku po restauracji kościoła, jest on udostępniony do zwiedzania jako muzeum.

Captain's log, stardate 6102.1. While investigating a distress call from a star cluster in the Protari system our ship, the U.S.S. Constitution and its crew, were pulled into a mysterious tractor beam. All data shows that we've somehow been transported to another dimension.
Myself, Captain Jezebel Kraai along with Science Officer Cidni Starchild, Chief Engineer Harper Blackwood, and Lieutenant Moran have set foot on what appears to be a post apocalyptic world. The surface appears to be like our own Earth and so far we're reading no life forms.
Could this be Earth and could we have somehow traveled back in time? Is this the year 2231, just after the first nuclear strikes of World War III? I will update when we have more data. Kraai out.
I appreciate these wonderful ladies and fellow artist for helping me out on this one. It's been a long time coming as this shot was actually taken this past May.
I was sort of baffled about what I wanted to do with this capture then decided to do a fantasy composite with it. So this is my first try at this sort of thing. I hope you guys find it at least adequate. Thanks!♥
This the 4th capure I inducted to the In Good Company Erotica Gallery for their October show.
The gallery is owned and operated by my friend Marcus Strong. Thank you so much Marcus for the oppotunity.♥
