For 116 in 2016 #58 "Fragile"

..... the reflections of these birch trees seemed to me, to accentuate their grace and fragility

Fragile - please watch carefully they break easily !

The lines can collect you and lift you up.

Following route 550, you will first pass Langjökull on the left, the second largest glacier in Iceland with its majestic forms of packed ice. A little further to the east, the gravel road takes some deep, rolling waves and then ends in a spacious left-hand bend until you come to this point.

 

Rain, low-hanging, mountain-enveloping cloud fields only showed the bright glow of a mysterious something between my windshield wipers and then, like in a movie ...

 

the fog bank slides open like a theater curtain. I got out of my car, stared at this scene for minutes and more. I don't know who took this photo, I drove alone, but I can't find any memory of touching the shutter release myself. What focal length, what aperture? Nothing, I just don't know, can't remember a thing!

 

Too pleading, the gesture of the outflows, like arms from the opposite of the valley, of which the streams of its glacier tongues find their finite bed in the river below.

 

You feel so infinitely small in this environment.

 

It is our world, from every creature, woman, man, child or grandchild, which looked down at me this moment and ...

as we all know, there is only This One.

Sting - „Fragile“

If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one

Drying in the colour of the evening sun

Tomorrow′s rain will wash the stains away

But something in our minds will always stay

Perhaps this final act was meant

To clinch a lifetime's argument

That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could

For all those born beneath an angry star

Lest we forget how fragile we are

 

On and on the rain will fall like tears from a star, like tears from a star

On and on the rain will say how fragile we are, how fragile we are

 

On and on the rain will fall like tears from a star, like tears from a star

On and on the rain will say how fragile we are, how fragile we are

How fragile we are, how fragile we are

Conditions have been very good this autumn for spotting lots of different fungi in our woodland and I came across this little cluster looking so fragile on the ground surrounded by fallen leaves. I am not sure what type they are but they do have a detain charm about them don't you think.

Well, the moon is broken

And the sky is cracked

Come on up to the house

The only thing that you can see

Is all that you lack

Come on up to the house

 

All your cryin' don't do no good

Come on up to the house

Come down off the cross

We can use the wood

You gotta' come on up to the house

 

Come on up to the house

Come on up to the house

The world is not my home

I'm just passing through

You gotta' come on up to the house

 

There's no light in the tunnel

No irons in the fire

Come on up to the house

& your singin' lead soprano

In a junkman's choir

You gotta come on up to the house

 

*

 

Does life seem nasty, brutish & short

Come on up to the house

The seas are stormy

& you can't find no port

Come on up to the house

There's nothin' in the world

 

*

 

There's nothin in the world

that you can do

you gotta come on up to the house

& you been whipped by the forces

that are inside you

come on up to the house

well you're high on top

of your mountain of woe

come on up to the house

well you know you should surrender

but you can't let go

you gotta come on up to the house

"Por que al final todos nosotros somos fragiles,vulnerables....en manos muchas veces de las sombras,sin saber lo que nos puede acechar al salir por la puerta....por que nadie nos vemos libres de la violencia sea verbal,sea fisica o sea psicologica...por que todo es violencia la machista ,la feminista,a los niños..a los animales.. por que al final todos estamos a merced de unas leyes con muchos vacios muchos huecos injustos que como se dice muchas veces"no se juzga cada caso como se debe"....en un planeta donde quitar la vida a una persona es barato...violar es barato..todo ya resulta barato y lo peor de todo es que todo parece normal y esta justificado....voy a pedir un deseo ya no para el 2019 ,para cuando sea...que toda violencia ,sea condenada como se merece ..y que todos estos vacios legales que tanto daño hacen ...a alguien se le ocurra modificarlo"

Lovely mushrooms imho.

A very small hand painted Japanese tea cup & saucer gifted to Pam as a young child from a relative. "Made in occupied Japan" inscribed on the bottom. The saucer was broken two years ago when it was knocked off a display case by an individual cleaning the room. Could not be repaired as a couple of fragments missing. The gift was a bit ironic as Pam's father was a marine who fought in the Pacific during WWII. Photographed on a black tabletop using available light and slow shutter. Cropped to under 3 inches.

The petal that will open the flower

Alla sera mi veniva il magone. Il viso mi cambiava espressione, lo facevo apposta. E non ci riuscivo mai, anzi, venivo sempre canzonata per questo mio atteggiamento. Lei, la piccola bimba viziata e figlia unica, lei, che voleva solo fare i capricci e non andare a letto. Lui solo cercava di riportare la situazione alla normalità. Faceva anche lo spiritoso, scatenando le gelosie dei figli. E raccontava un sacco di storie, sia dai libri che sue. Alcune volte le inventava mettendo in mezzo la moglie, rendendola protagonista di avventure impossibili, insieme quasi sempre a dei compagni animali. E noi, piccoli come eravamo, ridevamo. Raramente i finali erano tristi…

C’era molto altro da raccontare io credo, soprattutto nella notte…

 

-Spostati. Non mi senti? Fatti accarezzare dai, shhhh.-

…

Il silenzio era l’unico compagno di giochi che avessi. I miei giochi di adulta di allora.

Non rispondevo quasi mai, a volte mi uscivano dalla bocca solo lamenti spezzati e poche parole sussurrate, che magari non sentiva nemmeno. E quante lacrime, credo quasi come un mare intero.

Niente mi avrebbe permesso di dargli soddisfazione. Niente. E da brava bambina pretenziosa e testarda quale ero, il fiato mi spariva di colpo. Mi imponevo di essere muta e anche sorda. Come fossi dentro ad un sogno, un brutto sogno. Con tutte le menomazioni fisiche e mentali che giungevano programmate alla stessa ora.

Enjoy the large view

 

If blood will flow when fresh and steel are one

Drying in the colour of the evening sun

Tomorrows rain will wash the stains away

But something in our minds will always stay

Perhaps this final act was meant

To clinch a lifetimes argument

That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could

For all those born beneath an angry star

Lest we forget how fragile we are

 

On and on the rain will fall

Like tears from a star like tears from a star

On and on the rain will say

How fragile we are how fragile we are

This morning the frost was hard and the sky clear. The ice in this old Oak was falling in small lumps and soon the Oak would be free again of it's icy coat.
