LE CULTE DE LA ROSE**
Célébrant une fleur,c'est un hymne à la femme
Que Bécaud a chanté avec toute son âme.
Suscitant le désir, elle engendre la vie,
Quand, semblable à la rose, elle s'épanouit.
Déesse de l'amour, fascinante et féconde,
Elle est indispensable à la survie du monde.
Èros, dieu puissant qui incarnait l'amour
Agit, différemment, sans doute, de nos jours.
Cette splendide fleur que l'on appelle rose,
Doit être protégée, en bouton ou éclose.
Des hommes la célèbrent et vantent ses attraits,
Pour vénérer la femme en des rites secrets.
La rose est l'important,nous affirma Bécaud.
Il loua cette fleur symbolique, tout haut.
Elle nous apparaît,reine par sa beauté
Et déesse accomplie de la fécondité.

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.

Snowy Egret
From Cornell:
Highly social all year long, Snowy Egrets forage with gulls, terns, ibises, and other herons, and they nest in colonies alongside many other species, including Great Egrets, night-herons, Glossy Ibises, Little Blue Herons, Tricolored Herons, Cattle Egrets, and Roseate Spoonbills.
Staircase in the Technical University of Regensburg. The university also has an "Institute of Scalology", which is the science of the originalities and the appeal of stairs, or in brief, "knowledge of the staircase". This is the only one worldwide - with regard to my photographic obsession quite funny, isn't it? 😄
Formado por 2.711 bloques de hormigón de diferentes alturas, el Monumento al Holocausto de Berlín es una joya arquitectónica construida en memoria de los judíos asesinados en Europa que recuerda uno de los episodios más oscuros de la humanidad.
Edificado en las cercanías de la Puerta de Brandenburgo entre los años 2003 y 2005, el monumento en memoria de los judíos asesinados en Europa pretende enfrentarse a la noción de monumento en sí misma. La traducción literal del nombre alemán es "Monumento memorial a los judíos asesinados en Europa".
Se trata de una cuadrícula formada por 2.711 bloques de hormigón de diferentes alturas, que permite que los visitantes elijan su camino de entrada y salida como si se tratara de un laberinto.

An incredibly 'rare find' macro. 4 different forms of lichen growing within 25 centimetres of each other.
Forme bleue ( sombre ) Blue morph ( dark morph ).
Cette oie sombre appartient à la même famille que l'Oie des neiges.
Cependant, on la distingue à son plumage foncé et sa tête blanche. Elle est aussi plus petite que l'Oie des neiges.
On compte environ un individu de forme bleue pour 1000 individus de forme blanche ( Oie des neiges ).

Este estilo de edificio llamado localmente Jugendstil es el estilo de Secesión vienesa o modernismo vienés y corresponde al Pabellón de exposiciones, fue construido entre 1897 y 1898, y constituye uno de los más importantes edificios de ese estilo erigidos en Viena.
Llama la atención esta bélla cúpula que parece de oro y tiene forma de hojarasca..Está hecha de bronce y vulgarmente la llaman repollo .
Bajo la cúpula se lee en letras también doradas el lema de la Secesión: Der Zeit ihre Kunst, der Kunst ihre Freiheit . Quiere decir “A cada tiempo su arte, a cada arte su libertad”, son palabras del escritor y crítico de arte judeo-húngaro Ludwig Hevesi.
A la izquierda de la entrada se encuentra un segundo lema: Ver Sacrum , “Primavera Sagrada”, que expresa la esperanza en un nuevo florecimiento del arte. Este lema hace referencia a un rito por el cual cada cierto número de años, pro primavera, se expulsaba a los jóvenes de la ciudad o tribu a fin de que fundaran una nueva.
Esto era también el nombre de una revista creada por Koloman Moser, Gustav Klimt y Josef Hoffman entre 1898 y 1903 y agrupó a los miembros de la secesión vienesa, marcó el estilo Jugendstil y fue el órgano oficial de los artistas vieneses
Ampliando se nota la textura de la cúpula y se pueden leer bien las frases menscionadas en el edificio.
I semi sono il patrimonio più prezioso di ciascuna specie vegetale. Nei semi si conserva il patrimonio genetico di ciascuna specie e i dispositivi preziosi che consentono la germinazione e dunque la continuità della stessa specie. Anche in questo caso, comunque, il Sistema Vivente ha espresso una varietà di forme, di colori e di strategie di diffusione che lasciano stupefatti. Elaborando le forme, le dimensioni e il colore dei semi la vita vegetale ha superato sé stessa ..... ..

VALPUESTA - Burgos
Cuna del Castellano.
En este lugar se situó un obispado desde el año 804 hasta el 1087.

An "on location" wrist shot of this vintage handwound Chinese military wrist watch: "Jixing" brand, made by the Jilin Watch Factory (吉林手表厂). In the left background the Tsim Sha Tsui Star Ferry terminal and in the distance the skyline of Hong Kong Island.
The "Jixing" (吉星) brand means roughly "Lucky Star". The 軍用 on the dial means "military use". These watches were issued during the China-Vietnam conflict in 1979 - and also in the "second phase" of this conflict in 1984.
Apart from the different case color this watch is same as the other Jixing watch shown here. And, even if these "Jixing" are certified military watches, one usually expects a more "tactical" look from such timepieces.

Bernard's Bridge is a well detailed bridge forming the entrance to part of an outstanding example of early 19th century urban planning with a classical design scheme by prominent architect James Milne. The bridge was designed to provide easy access to the Raeburn Estate which Milne was developing, and provided a processional entrance to the estate at Dean Terrace. The provision of a bridge made access to and from the area easier as Telford's high level crossing upstream (see separate listing) had not yet been completed and the Stock Bridge, 200metres downstream, was not widened until circa 1830. The large Jacobean stairs may have been planned as part of the 1888 restoration and improvement work of the nearby St Bernard's Well (see separate listing) which was funded by the publisher William Nelson. The bridge is an integral part of Edinburgh's New Town, which is an outstanding example of classical urban planning that was influential throughout Britain and Europe.
The bridge was designed as a key part of the development of the land of Sir Henry Raeburn. The design exploits a prominent site on the river with a broad bowl of flat land to either side providing the ideal place for a crossing. It is likely that Milne was the architect for the bridge as he was working elsewhere on the Raeburn estate, most notably at Ann Street (see separate listings).
Henry Raeburn was born in Stockbridge and acquired the house and grounds of Deanhaugh through marriage, before adding adjacent land at St Bernard's. He occupied St Bernard's House until his death in 1823 when it was demolished to accommodate the growing residential development of the estate, making space for the eastern side of Carlton Street. The authorship of James Milne for the whole development is not certain, but the elevations for the principal streets bear the characteristic features of his designs elsewhere, such as Lynedoch Place (see separate listing) where the streetfronting gardens found on Ann Street are also used.
James Milne was an architect and mason working in Edinburgh between 1809 and 1834 (when he moved to Newcastle). His other works in Edinburgh also include Lynedoch Place and Saxe-Coburg Place (see separate listings). Milne was also the author of The Elements of Architecture only the 1st volume of which was published in Edinburgh in 1812.

Happy Saturday for Stairs
Its muscular yet graceful stealth makes the leopard a prize sighting on safari, but it's not just spots that make for super-effective camouflage. The black form can be just as elusive in the bush, remaining unseen only a few metres away, the twitch of a tail is most of the time the only giveaway.
This leopard gives a perfunctory “buck-off” snarl, to something in a nearby bush.
Speed: ±58 km/h (Running)
Mass: ±30 – 91 kg (Adult, Male)
Lifespan: ±12 – 17 years (Satara,Kruger National Park, RSA).
