Le Martin-pêcheur, remarquable par sa silhouette caractéristique et ses couleurs éclatantes, est un oiseau de taille modeste, Perché, il se tient dressé. Le corps, court et trapu, paraît disproportionné comparé à la grosse tête prolongée d'un long bec en forme de poignard (4 cm). Les minuscules pattes rouges et la queue très rudimentaire sont également les signes caractéristiques du genre Alcedo. Les deux couleurs dominantes du plumage sont le bleu, pouvant passer au vert selon la luminosité sur le dessus, et le roux orangé chaud sur les parties inférieures. De plus près, on distingue le dessus de la tête et les ailes bleu verdâtre, le dos et la queue bleu clair variant du bleu azur au bleu cobalt ainsi que la gorge blanche. Les côtés du cou également blancs sont bordés au niveau de la joue d'une tache orangée soulignée elle-même d'une large bande bleue. Le bec du mâle est entièrement noir, celui de la femelle est teinté de rouge ou d'orangé à la base de la mandibule inférieure. Le juvénile ressemble à l'adulte, mais avec le plumage plus terne et plus vert. Les pattes sont grisâtres. Les ailes courtes sont animées de battements soutenus permettant un vol très rapide et droit.

The Kingfisher, remarkable for its characteristic silhouette and bright colors, is a bird of modest size, Perched, he stands erect. The body, short and stocky, seems disproportionate compared to the large head extended by a long beak-shaped dagger (4 cm). The tiny red legs and the very rudimentary tail are also characteristic signs of the Alcedo genus. The two dominant colors of the plumage are blue, which can change to green depending on the brightness on the top, and the orange red hot on the lower parts. Closer to home, there is the top of the head and the greenish-blue wings, the back and tail light blue ranging from azure blue to cobalt blue and the white throat. The sides of the neck also white are bordered at the cheek of an orange spot underlined by a broad blue band. The beak of the male is entirely black, that of the female is tinged with red or orange at the base of the lower mandible. The juvenile resembles the adult, but with the feathers duller and greener. The legs are grayish. The short wings are animated by sustained beats allowing a very fast and straight flight.
I'm really pleased with how this came out!

'Twas noontide of summer,
And mid-time of night;
And stars, in their orbits,
Shone pale, thro' the light
Of the brighter, cold moon,
'Mid planets her slaves,
Herself in the Heavens,
Her beam on the waves.
I gazed awhile
On her cold smile;
Too cold- too cold for me-
There pass'd, as a shroud,
A fleecy cloud,
And I turned away to thee,
Proud Evening Star,
In thy glory afar,
And dearer thy beam shall be;
For joy to my heart
Is the proud part
Thou bearest in Heaven at night,
And more I admire
Thy distant fire,
Than that colder, lowly light.

Cyathe en vase
(Cyathus olla)
Cyathus est un genre de champignons de la famille des Agaricaceae
une famille dont la ressemblance à de petits nids d'oiseaux remplis d’œufs est importante. Ce sont en fait des structures de reproduction contenant des spores. Les « œufs », ou péridioles, sont fermement attachés à la surface interne de l'organe de fructification par un cordon élastique connu comme un funicule. Les 45 espèces sont largement distribués à travers le monde et certaines se retrouvent dans la plupart des pays, alors que d'autres existent seulement dans un ou deux endroits. Cyathus stercoreus est considéré comme en danger dans un certain nombre de pays européens. Certaines espèces de Cyathus ressemblent également à des tasses éclatées, car les gouttes de pluie en tombant peuvent frapper les péridioles et les éjecter hors de la tasse. Les surfaces interne et externe de cette coupe peuvent être striées longitudinalement ce qui est un exemple d'une caractéristique taxinomique qui sert traditionnellement à distinguer les espèces. Généralement considéré comme non comestibles, les Cyathus sont saprophytes, car ils obtiennent les nutriments dont ils ont besoin de la décomposition des matières organiques. Ils poussent généralement sur le bois en décomposition ou des débris ligneux, sur les bouses de vache et le crottin de cheval, ou directement sur un sol riche en humus. Le cycle de vie de ce genre lui permet de se reproduire de façon sexuée, par méiose, et asexuée, par des spores. Plusieurs espèces produisent des composés bioactifs, dont certains ont des propriétés médicinales, et plusieurs enzymes de dégradation de la lignine peuvent être utiles dans la bioremédiation et l'agriculture. L'analyse phylogénétique offre de nouvelles perspectives sur les relations évolutives entre les différentes espèces de Cyathus et a jeté un doute sur la validité des systèmes de classification plus âgés qui sont basés sur des caractéristiques

Cyathus is a genus of fungi in the family Agaricaceae
a family whose resemblance to small bird nests filled with eggs is important. They are actually reproductive structures containing spores. The "eggs", or peridioles, are firmly attached to the inner surface of the fruiting body by an elastic cord known as a funicle. The 45 species are widely distributed across the world and some are found in most countries, while others only exist in one or two locations. Cyathus stercoreus is considered endangered in a number of European countries. Some species of Cyathus also resemble popped cups, as falling raindrops can strike the peridioles and eject them out of the cup. The inner and outer surfaces of this cup may be longitudinally streaked which is an example of a taxonomic feature that is traditionally used to distinguish species. Generally considered inedible, Cyathus are saprophytes, as they obtain the nutrients they need from the decomposition of organic matter. They typically grow on rotting wood or woody debris, on cow dung and horse manure, or directly on humus-rich soil. The life cycle of this genus allows it to reproduce sexually, by meiosis, and asexually, by spores. Several species produce bioactive compounds, some of which have medicinal properties, and several lignin-degrading enzymes may be useful in bioremediation and agriculture. Phylogenetic analysis offers new insights into the evolutionary relationships between different Cyathus species and has cast doubt on the validity of older classification systems that are based on characteristics.

Intentional Camera Movement - a genre of photography which I thought I would try out. Although this was taken in the woods I like the result which could be weed floating in a chalk stream. So, this is my first attempt and I'm happy with the outcome.

For this season of colour and glitz, some ying and yang.
Some of these might look familiar as colour versions have already been flickred. Photographically, mono is a different genre.

All the photos I present were taken in the town of Taormina;
I made photos related to "street photography";
I photographed people who, for the most part, I had never met before, performing their portraits, I thank them for their sympathy and availability;
The volcano Etna, in recent days has shown an intense eruptive activity, I photographed that spectacular eruptions from Taormina;
I tried to capture minimal photographic stories, collected walking down the street .. ... in search of fleeting moments ...
For some photographs I used a particular photographic technique at the time of shooting, which in addition to capturing the surrounding space, also "inserted" a temporal dimension, with photos characterized by being moved because the exposure times were deliberately lengthened, they are confused -focused-imprecise-undecided ... the Anglo-Saxon term that encloses this photographic genre with a single word is "blur", these images were thus created during the shooting phase, and not as an effect created subsequently, in retrospect, in the post-production.
………………………………………………………
Tutte le foto che presento sono state realizzate nella cittadina di Taormina;
ho realizzato foto riconducibili alla “street photography”;
ho fotografato persone che, per la maggior parte, non avevo incontrato prima, eseguendo dei loro ritratti, le ringrazio per la loro simpatia e disponibilità;
il vulcano Etna, nei giorni scorsi ha mostrato una intensa attività eruttiva, anche con intensi fenomeni chiamati "fontane di lava", emissioni a getto continuo perdurate intensamente per molti minuti, di altissime "fontane" di magma incandescente, molto spettacolari e non comuni, le fotografie dell'Etna sono state realizzate da Taormina;
ho provato a cogliere storie fotografiche minime, raccolte camminando per la strada ... alla ricerca di attimi fugaci s-fuggenti ...
Ho utilizzato per alcune fotografie una tecnica fotografica particolare al momento dello scatto, che oltre a catturare lo spazio circostante, ha "inserito" anche una dimensione temporale, con foto caratterizzate dall’essere mosse poiché volutamente sono stati allungati i tempi di esposizione, sono confuse-sfocate-imprecise-indecise...il termine anglosassone che racchiude con una sola parola questo genere fotografico è "blur", queste immagini sono state così realizzate in fase di scatto, e non come un effetto creato successivamente, a posteriori, in fase di post-produzione.

Marshall Point Lighthouse stands on a rocky point at the end of the St. George peninsula in Maine. The lighthouse aids navigation along the Gulf of Maine coast and marks the entrance to the mouth of the St. George River and the harbor located in the fishing village of Port Clyde. The light station was established in 1832.
