Galloping on his nag Rocinante, Don Quixote tried to attack the windmills. With windmills as their only weapons, the Dutch are trying to push back the sea’s never-ending advance. According to some forecasts, in a few hundred years the Netherlands will no longer exist because of global warming. Water will take back from people what they have taken from her. Time will tell if they will have been as bold as the lord of La Mancha, Don Quixote.
What do the Kinderdijk windmills drain? They irrigate time

John Clare
Farmer's Boy
He waits all day beside his little flock
And asks the passing stranger what's o'clock,
But those who often pass his daily tasks
Look at their watch and tell before he asks.
He mutters stories to himself and lies
Where the thick hedge the warmest house supplies,
And when he hears the hunters far and wide
He climbs the highest tree to see them ride--
He climbs till all the fields are blea and bare
And makes the old crow's nest an easy chair.
And soon his sheep are got in other grounds--
He hastens down and fears his master come,
He stops the gap and keeps them all in bounds
And tends them closely till it's time for home.
The little prince follows the fox into the forest…

Let's keep choosing to build a world

Keep shining bright, my friends!
"I keep staring at the sun, it's in my blood
I'm headed for disaster
Burn bridges just for fun, have I gone numb?
It's a goddamn shame
I push away the people that I love the most
Addicted to the feeling and the chemicals
I'm holding onto hope, but it only destroys me
'Cause I'm in love with bad things
Yeah, I'm in love with"

“Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad.”
― Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
I walked into the sad part of sunset and as I was there talking to myself, I realized that the other side was oh so close, only a step away, but I could not go astray....My side was already chosen ...To be among the hues of orange and red and forever be sad...b.mikic

This image is from one of the better hikes in Petrified Forest National Park called Blue Mesa Trail. I would love to offer up some death-defying horror story of how I scrambled to a cliff edge and almost died for this image, but it would be malarkey (forgive the foul language). This is actually taken from a very safe and comfortable overlook with railings and everything. I know, where is the fun in that? So, yes, this composition is popular, Still, it is popular for a reason, and now I have my own version of this iconic scene. I actually had this same image with people down there too, but this seemed to much more true to the place. I feel like this landscape seems so alien, so inhospitable, that it is far better suited to be alone. I am sure many will argue it is indeed teaming with life, but it sure does not feel that way. So here you go. Alone. The only friend this strange place has is color.

Past his death
Life, brittles of rough
Broke under her steps
And hot springs through her
Found a fresh leap
Journey, long
And path scrawling in the dark depths
She was not herself
پس از مرگ او، زندگی لایههای سخت تردی بود که در هر قدم با شکستی فوارهی گرم هستیاش را جهشی نو میداد
راه دراز بود و در سیاهی عمیقی جریان داشت
او به خود نبود
I had taken a capture of three little birds looking like they were lined up for the Olympic medal ceremony while in the rain today. Few minutes later all the birds scattered off ... then the hawk came and landed in the same spot.
As I took the two captures only moments apart in the same lighting, it was quite easy in Photoshop to overlay the two images of the birds, and layer into the photo with the hawk the two smaller birds.
I also chose one of the images of the hawk staring down at the fence, it lined up perfectly where the little one has been sitting just moments before.
Bringing the two images together also allows you to see the relative size difference between them.

Since the new world order
Played upon our fears
Spreading accusations
Of radical ideas
The brotherhood of wisdom
Strength and dignity
Its rituals and secrets
Remain a mystery
Beneath an ever watchful eye
The angels of the temple fly
Turn the key
Walk through the gate
The great ascent
To reach a higher state
A rite of passage
The final stage
A sacred home
Unlock the door
And lay the cornerstone
A rite of passage
Men of wealth and power
Influence and fame
Philosphers and leaders
All members of the trade
Bound by oath and honor
Like the rose and cross
An enigmatic union
Of esoteric thought
Beneath an ever watchful eye
The angels of the temple fly
Turn the key
Walk through the gate
The great ascent
To reach a higher state
A rite of passage
The final stage
A sacred home
Unlock the door
And lay the cornerstone
A rite of passage
Turn the key
Walk through the gate
The great ascent
To reach a higher state
A rite of passage
The seven stars
The rising sun
A perfect world
A new life has begun
A rite of passage
In 1804, Henry Drummond commissioned his friend the architect William Wilkins to transform his brick house into a neoclassical Ancient Greek temple. Wilkins, a promising young architect and antiquary, had been much influenced by his recent travels to Greece and Asia Minor. The massive Doric portico is a copy of the Theseion in Athens and the side elevations imitate the Choragic Monument of Thrasyllus. Whilst commonly claimed to be the earliest Greek Revival style house in Europe, Benjamin Henry Latrobe, for instance, was using the primitive Greek Doric at Hammerwood Park in 1792. The transformation was largely external - the old house was literally wrapped in Roman cement, a very hard render made from ground flint. This is when the podium visible today was built. What had been ground floor rooms became basement rooms and the main reception rooms which had been on the piano nobile were now at the same level as the podium. The windows of servants’ rooms on the uppermost storey were covered by the entablature of the temple facade, and is partly why it was necessary to extend the house. As at Hammerwood, the giant Doric portico is echoed by a single storey portico behind so as to provide an enhanced perspective when viewed from the hill opposite beyond the lake in the style of the Picturesque.
In 1817, before the works were finished, Drummond sold the house to Alexander Baring, second son of Sir Francis Baring who owned Stratton Park, five miles north of The Grange.
The Grange is a 19th-century country house-mansion and English landscape park near Northington in Hampshire, England. It is currently owned by the Ashburton family. English Heritage have a guardianship deed on the scheduled monument and Grade I listed building, with the Grade II* listed gardens and monument's exterior open to the public. The house and gardens are also available to rent for parties and weddings. Grange Park Opera staged opera at The Grange every Summer from 1998 to 2016. From June 2017 The Grange Festival became the new resident opera company.

Actually he was probably looking for squirrels. We detoured on the way home from work today and found some great locations for photography. Unfortunately much of my exploring turned out to be "No Dogs Allowed" areas, so this poor pup spent most of his time guarding the truck (Aka sleeping on his cosy rug waiting for mum)
