My abstract or blurry view of the full moon above the lights of ships at the sea without my glasses!
This house boat on the backwaters of Kerala left our house boat in the dust. He was in a hurry, perhaps to pick up new guests! Most of the house boats have been renovated from old rice barges. They come in all shapes and sizes and some are quite elegant. All are very comfortable inside.
Colori accesi, brillanti, vibranti. Composizioni ritmate da linee e piani sovrapposti, geometrie costruite sulla luce.
Paesaggi iperreali, più veri del vero, surreali, sospesi, spesso impossibili. Proporzioni ingannevoli in cui non c'è spazio per l'uomo.
Tratti distintivi che rimandano immediatamente e inequivocabilmente al linguaggio visivo del Maestro della fotografia Franco Fontana.
Chiedo scusa al Maestro.

Full color at the Fontana
Bright, bright, vibrant colors. Compositions punctuated by overlapping lines and planes, geometries built on light.
Hyperreal landscapes, truer than real, surreal, suspended, often impossible. Misleading proportions where there is no room for man.
Distinctive features that immediately and unequivocally refer to the visual language of the master of photography Franco Fontana.
I apologize to the Master.
Sorry to Maestro Fontana.

Smile on Saturday.
Pick a Stick belonged to my Grandad over 80 years ago. Played throughout the years by my family, now playing Pick A Stick with my grandchildren.
It was a good day -
On a way to a State park, we learned of a huge accident on interstate so we had to take a detour of 3.5 hours instead of usual 1.5. But it was all worth it...wild flowers along countryside road were so beautiful so I had to stop and take it all in..

If you decide to travel along this highway into the bowels of the Universe, carry enough fuel to cover the billions of light years ahead of you. You won't find a place to refuel. When you have travelled this distance without finding anything, not even a little bit of intelligent life and you reach the far reaches of the Universe... don't be scared... there's nothing there, either. Only the "nothing". Or since everything is cyclical, perhaps you have returned to the place where you started, full of wisdom from your long trip. It's probably better to look for intelligent life on Earth, but it's also very likely that you'll have a hard time finding it. Don't worry about not understanding the Universe or the reason for its existence... you're not Einstein, but one day you'll understand that... The Universe is wounded, but it still has infinity ahead of it. It still has you and me. Merry Christmas to all and to the infinite Universe that is within you.
Gregory Alan Isakov - The Universe
Y el Universo está susurrando tan suavemente que puedo oírlo todo... el zumbido de los insectos, todos los taxis, todo el cambio gastado de los vagabundos, todos los chicos jugando a la pelota en los callejones. Son sólo pliegues en su vestido. El Universo, está herido, pero aún tiene el infinito por delante. Todavía nos tiene a ti y a mí. Y todos dicen que es hermoso. Y todos dicen...

Music for your trip to the Universe:
Ground Control to Major Tom. Ground Control to Major Tom. Take your protein pills and put your helmet on. Ground Control to Major Tom (ten, nine, eight, seven, six)... Commencing countdown, engines on (five, four, three)... Check ignition and may God's love be with you (two, one, liftoff...)
Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Parts VI–IX
"Shine On You Crazy Diamond", was written as a tribute to Syd Barrett, one of the founders of Pink Floyd. He was also known as "The Crazy Diamond Syd". Barrett was a very creative musician and is considered one of the rock icons, with a strong influence on many artists, very especially to David Bowie. Syd Barrett is a key piece to understand the evolution of rock in the 70s.. Excessive drug use, especially LSD, caused him serious mental health problems. Syd Barrett died in 2006 at the age of 60. Always shine diamond.
The Universal is a science fiction song written as a tribute to two films by film director Stanley Kubrick. In the video, the Blur members wear outfits similar to Alex and his gang of thugs, the protagonists of the movie "A Clockwork Orange." The image used for the cover of the single alluded to what is possibly Kubrick's best film: "2001: To Space Odyssey."
We haven't changed that much in 300,000 years of evolution.

this was given to me upon my retirement - it always reminds me of good times spent doing good things with good people !
H😊oS
Yes, I do remember that day, the last holiday with French friends before Covid time, a picnic with them in a meadow of the Roussillon.
There I found this lovely wild succulent plant, I took a little branch of this for my balcony.
And now this is the first blooming at home!
I don't know its name, I add a picture in the comments for helping the ID.
Smile on Saturday with Memories ;-)

Smile on Saturday#Full of Memories
St. John's wort ready for drying
My strongest memories are of my grandmother. In addition to bearing her name, I also have many of her qualities and her loves. From her I learned to love flowers and birds, to cook and make wonderful sweets. She taught me how to dry herbs. This is my favorite picture because whenever I look at it I can even feel the atmosphere and smell of that herb as she prepares it for drying. The light in the picture is exactly what I remember, a constant play of light and darkness, because her house was surrounded by large trees, so the sun was breaking through the branches. As a background, I used the door from her kitchen cupboard and the plate from her garden table. Yes, I loved her very much and I miss her very much but I am happy that she knew I loved her.

Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a pink or purple day at Color my World Daily and the theme at Smile on Saturday is « full of memories ».
When I was about 9 years old, we moved from Poland to Algeria. My Dad was working there. As a little girl I missed my grandmother very, very much. Back then there was no internet and even telephone wasn’t a very efficient way of keeping contact between Poland and Algeria. So , for several weeks I was saving my lunch money to buy a gift for my grandmother. I got her this tiny necklace. I went to this flea market and I bargained with the seller until we both reach an acceptable price. And the necklace was mine.It is called « hamsa » (it means five) and it is a very, very popular amulet in Middle East. Hamsa is supposed to bring you good fortune and protect the bearer from the « evil eye ». It was a perfect gift for my grandmother, so far away from me… This amulet was supposed to protect her from anything bad. And it did !! My grandmother was always wearing this necklace. For years. The last time I saw her, she had her necklace with her. She told me that the necklace was reminding her of me and our family so far away but so close in her heart…. The necklace traveled with her, through Europe, Russia and almost to Japan. When she died, peacefully in her sleep wearing her necklace near her heart, she was at peace. At one point, I got my necklace back. It went from Algeria to Poland, from Poland all around the glob and then back to Montreal, Canada. Since then, I always keep it with me… I truly believe it will protect me from anything bad…and each time I touch it, it brings an amazing amount of very good memories.
And if you want to know more about « hamsa », here is the link : en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamsa
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !! Have a beautiful day and see you later!!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!! And see you soon on Flickr !!
Today's Smile on Saturday theme is full of memories. A very interesting theme, but hard for me. I have so many wonderful memories. Many of them revolve around our boat and the family and friends who joined us cruising. But even limiting myself to boating photos, there were so many truly awesome places that we visited, I couldn't chose one. So I chose this one - an everyday type of place and scene. Put it in mono since it's a memory now, as is our boat, which we sold in early 2020.
these are pebbles and things I found at the beach and painted. they are on my kitchen table, so I can relive my happy memories every day.

Have to make a break in the Italian series. Finally the so-called spring is here. It's still about 0 Celcius in the night and the first green foliage tries to appear. Love this period of full water in the meadows and the fresh green.
Thank you for all the comments and favs, my friends.
Shone by the spring sunlight against the blue sky, Prunus mume (‘Ume’ in Japanese) was in full blossom. It started blooming just a couple of weeks ago.
