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.

I funghi sono organismi prodigiosi e, al tempo stesso, misteriosi. La Scienza li ha collocati in un regno diverso dalle piante e dagli animali, di cui presentano singolari e segrete caratteristiche. La loro funzione di demolizione dei rifiuti organici e in particolare del legno, risulta fondamentale per il buon funzionamento dell'ecosistema forestale e le loro forme sono pura bellezza cromatica e formale ..... ..
MYANMAR,burma - Mandalay , rund um die Kuthodaw-Pagode
Rund um die Pagoden-Anlage
Die Kuthodaw-Pagode (Pagode der Königlichen Verdienste) ist eine 1868 fertiggestellte Anlage in der myanmarischen Stadt Mandalay. Sie besteht aus 729 Stupas in Form pavillonartiger Tempel, in denen je eine weiße Marmorplatte mit birmanischer Schrift steht.
Auf den Marmorplatten ist der Pali-Kanon niedergelegt, das Leben und die Lehren Buddhas. Die ursprünglich vergoldeten Lettern sind heute nur noch schwarz eingefärbt. Die Pagode wird wegen dieser umfangreichen Darstellung auch als „Das größte Buch der Welt“ bezeichnet. Vor der Erschaffung dieser Anlage waren die Texte vorwiegend auf Palmblättern oder Holz niedergeschrieben. Die Inschriften wurden von der UNESCO in die Liste des Weltdokumentenerbes aufgenommen.
In der Mitte der Anlage befindet sich außerdem die vergoldete Maha Lawka Marazein-Pagode, die bereits 1857 nach den Plänen der Shwezigon-Pagode erbaut wurde.
MYANMAR,burma - Mandalay , around the Kuthodaw Pagoda.
The Kuthodaw Pagoda (Pagoda of Royal Merit) is a complex completed in 1868 in the Myanmar city of Mandalay. It consists of 729 stupas in the form of pavilion-like temples, each containing a white marble slab with Burmese script.
The Pali Canon, the life and teachings of Buddha, is inscribed on the marble slabs. The original gilded letters are now only colored black. The pagoda is also called "The largest book in the world" because of this extensive representation. Before the creation of this complex, the texts were mainly written down on palm leaves or wood. The inscriptions have been included by UNESCO in the list of World Documentary Heritage.
In the center of the complex there is also the gilded Maha Lawka Marazein Pagoda, which was built as early as 1857 according to the plans of the Shwezigon Pagoda.
“Form is emptiness, emptiness is form" states the Heart Sutra, one of the best known ancient Buddhist texts. The essence of all things is emptiness.”

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.
The beetles are 3.5 to 4.5 millimeters long, They have a great variety of color forms: well over 100 color and pattern variations. Some of these color forms differ to the extent that at first they were thought to be separate species.
The background coloration ranges from cream through yellow to light orange, but not red. Usually there are 14 black, almost rectangular spots on the elytra, but only rarely are all of these spots separate from one another. Most commonly, several of the spots are fused into larger markings, particularly along the midline, where they often create a shape resembling an anchor, sometimes fusing to such an extent that the yellow disappears almost completely, rendering the body almost entirely black except for 12 pale yellow spots.
The pronotum is whitish or pale yellow, with four to eight black spots. The antennae and legs are yellowish-brown.

Hojas que se trasforman en corazones, adoptan su forma su color, se enredan entre las ramas y cuando menos lo esperas cae sobre ti esa "bendita maldición" del amor.
Así lo describo refiriéndome a las parejas pero extendiendo todo lo que la palabra amor significa, vería este árbol como la vida que crece a tu alrededor y se llena de corazones que te acompañan y laten ante nuestra felicidad y nuestra tristeza apoyando, ayudando, simplemente estando ahí y para los que siempre estás cuando te necesitan.
De eso se trata el amor, no?
Feliz día flickr@s Dia que debemos celebrar todos los días del año.
Nada mas reconfortante que recibir o dar ese abrazo que te aprieta hasta el alma y reactiva el corazón.
Cycads are seed plants with a very long fossil history that were formerly more abundant and more diverse than they are today.They have a cylindrical trunk which usually does not branch. Leaves grow directly from the trunk, and typically fall when older, leaving a crown of leaves at the top. The leaves grow in a rosette form, with new foliage emerging from the top and center of the crown. The trunk may be buried, so the leaves appear to be emerging from the ground, so the plant appears to be a basal rosette. The leaves are generally large in proportion to the trunk size, and sometimes even larger than the trunk. The leaves are pinnate (in the form of bird feathers, pinnae), with a central leaf stalk from which parallel ribs emerge from each side of the stalk, perpendicular to it. The leaves are typically either compound (the leaf stalk has leaflets emerging from it as ribs, or have edges (margins) so deeply cut (incised) so as to appear compound. Some species have leaves that are bipinnate, which means the leaflets each have their own subleaflets, growing in the same form on the leaflet as the leaflets grow on the stalk of the leaf (self-similar geometry). 26357

Peter's Pool is a kettle lake made by Franz Josef Glacier, in the Westland National Park in the South Island of New Zealand. Together with Fox Glacier—located 20 kilometres away—the glaciers extend from the Southern Alps to the valley floor less than 300 metres above sea level.
The lake was formed by melting glacial ice around 200 years ago. The water is highly reflective and provides stunning views of the glacial valley containing Franz Josef Glacier.
