MOVING LANDSCAPES
Mr Wilde has said that sunsets are out of fashion. This defect
could undoubtedly be covered
up if landscapes constantly moved around. The fact of seeing a
landscape in the same place
- is necessarily boring. The contrary would be charming. And
spectacular. A cluster of
trees migrating under the sky. Or a tree going on its way to the
jungle - alone -straight-
on its countless little, white legs.
But then people would invent cages to trap landscapes. and a
landscape in a cage can't feel
very happy.
Luis Vidales

Occasionally, I have fun reusing a pose, just to see if I can come up with something that has a completely different feel. This is one of those times.
Elysion's Cirque du Reves event was recently, and I was inspired to make an outfit for the event, as well! It was such a lovely event, I do hope they have more!
It's perfect, as there was so much new stuff that fit perfectly.
The Avenue has some wonderful stuff from Zibska! The Yingtai decoration, along with the blush and lipstick are striking with the Aceri eyemakeup that came out for the event! Grab it before it's gone! The headpiece is unrigged, so you can have fun with some of the falling petals, like I did!
Azoury's Cyrus Boots seriously made me excited the moment I saw the ad. I couldn't wait to get them. Grab them at Cosmopolitan before the next one!
Hitch a ride over on my blog!

It's a shame that some vandals messed up this interesting work.
La causa sui es la mejor contracción interna que se haya inventado jamás, una especie de violación y de atentado a la lógica. Pero el orgullo desmesurado del hombre le ha conducido a enzarzarse cada vez más en las temibles profundidades de este absurdo. El anhelo del "libre arbitrio", entendido en el sentido superlativo y metafísico que aún domina, desgraciadamente, en los cerebros semicultivados, la necesidad de soportar la completa y absoluta responsabilidad de sus actos y de descargar de ella a Dios, al mundo, a la herencia, al azar, a la sociedad, no es otra cosa que la necesidad de ser uno mismo esta causa sui. Con una audacia que supera la del barón de Munchausen, se intenta tirarse a sí mismo de los cabellos para salir de la ciénaga de la nada y entrar en la existencia...
(...) Somos nosotros, y únicamente nosotros, quienes hemos inventado, como tantas ficciones, la causa, la sucesión, la reciprocidad, la relatividad, la necesidad, el número, la ley, la libertad, la razón, el fin; y cuando introducimos falsamente en las "cosas" este mundo de signos inventados por nosotros, cuando lo incorporamos a las cosas como si les perteneciese "en sí", obramos una vez más como lo hemos hecho siempre: creemos una mitología...
(...) Y de una manera general, si mis observaciones son exactas, el problema del determinismo se considera desde dos aspectos absolutamente diferentes, pero siempre de manera absolutamente personal: unos creencia en sí mismos, de su derecho personal, de su propio mérito (es el caso de las castas vanidosas); otros, por el contrario, no queriendo ser responsables de nada, ni culpables de nada, impulsados por un íntimo desprecio de sí mismos, exigiendo descargarse no importa dónde del fardo de su yo. Cuando éstos escriben libros, tienen la costumbre hoy de tomar a su cargo la defensa de los malhechores; su disfraz más amable es afectar una especie de socialismo de la piedad. Y, efectivamente, el fatalismo de los abúlicos se embellece extraordinariamente en cuanto que logra presentarse como la "religión de la souffrance humaine". Este su modo peculiar de demostrar su "buen gusto".

One of the most interesting art books I have purchased recently is Tula Telfair's "Invented Landscapes" (Abrams, 2016).
Telfair was raised in Gabon, Africa, and then traveled with her family to Asia and Europe before moving to the United States of America. She is currently a professor of art at Wesleyan University, and her work is gaining widespread recognition.
Her painting is very photographic. So much so that the bookshop where I bought the book had placed it in their photography section. The amazing thing though, is that every landscape comes directly from her memories and imaginative reconstruction. She never paints from actual scenes. As Henry Adams puts it in the introduction to her book, "One might think of Telfair as a novelist in paint." I heartily recommend her work.
The only link between my collage of Greens Beach seascapes and Telfair is that I have borrowed her idea of placing panoramic images in parallel. Here's an example:

Dopo un’epica giornata che ci ha impegnato più di 15 ore per raggiungerne la cima, dalla stretta cengia che porta alla bocchetta del Lavattel un ultimo sguardo alla parete ovest del Torrione di Bettola, bella vetta dei Corni di Nibbio teatro di una recente conquista alpinistica della guida ossolana Fabrizio Manoni con Felice Ghiringhelli.
Noi, più modestamente abbiamo percorso la via normale, un itinerario tutto da inventare ai limiti tra l’escursionismo e l’alpinismo, in gran parte fuori sentiero, che attraversa profondi valloncelli boscosi, si inerpica su vertiginosi pendii di erba ripida e rododendri, supera roccette di varia difficoltà fino al canalino di 2° grado che precede la vetta.
Vera avventura a due passi da casa che lascia tanta soddisfazione.
This is a Venetian Pitcher made on the Island of Murano. It is a popular Murano technique called Millefiori (a thousand flowers) which was invented by Murano Glass masters centuries ago. It is crafted entirely by hand and is created from hundreds of unique colorful millefiori pieces fused together under high temperature in a special furnace. We were fortunate to take a tour to this glass factory and watch the masters at work. This little vase is 5" tall and 4" at it's widest part. This shot is taken looking into the pitcher.

"Doveva essere un bell'originale chi ha inventato l'innocenza dei bambini."
Ivy Compton-Burnett, Un dio e i suoi doni, 1963
Invento os dias e já deles vivo,
ainda que se demorem
para minha tão grande pressa.
O amor é já minha premência,
meu abandono e a saudade do que virá e
meus olhos intentam enxergar
no recôndito deserto dessa solidão.
E já tudo acontece
e me transformo em cais urgente,
em rumor de primavera, seiva fremente
à sua espera,
sombra do amor que a tudo transfigura,
ainda que habite em névoas,
em tudo que só existe em meus sonhos.
Obrigada pelas visitas =)
Dicen que las buenas fotos deben contar una historia. Así que yo me esfuerzo en intentar contar historias aunque no consiga buenas fotos. Estas callejeras es lo que tienen, como son a salto de mata cuando no me falla el enfoque falla el encuadre, o están trepidadas, o los parámetros son los que están en ese momento sean adecuados o no. Y al final me doy cuenta de que, además de que la foto es un churro, no he contado una historia. En realidad he hecho una sugerencia para que cada cual se invente la suya.
Aquí tenemos a nuestro protagonista, recién duchado y perfumado y puesto como un pincel sentado en un banco al que se ha acercado apoyado en su cachaba, que los años no pasan en balde, con su precioso ramo de flores recién comprado. Piensa en que esta vez no se le escapa la zagala y en cómo la va a abordar para, por fin, declararle su amor tanto tiempo sentido y tan pocas veces expresado por esa cobardía que tantas veces tenemos los hombres y tantas ocasiones nos hacen perder.
O quizás no. Igual simplemente está esperando a su esposa, que ha ido a hacer un recado, para “sorprenderla” con ese ramo de flores que le regala puntualmente todos los años este mismo día. Fue el día en que se conocieron y se enamoraron. Cómo no, en las fiestas locales. Por entonces todavía no se había inventado el Celedón, ni su bajada ni su subida. El iba con su cuadrilla bailando con su blusa, el puro en la mano y su boina cuando se fijó en esos ojos que le miraban y que eran como garfios de abordaje que se agarran a la carne y tiran con una fuerza irresistible. Y junto a esos ojos una sonrisa pícara. Luego el baile en la plaza, el inicio del cortejo, los primeros piropos y requiebros que venían a los labios empujados por ese par de chiquitos de Rioja que se había tomado antes para darse valor. Y desde entonces puntualmente todos los años le hace su obsequio en agradecimiento de esos 365 días de compañía feliz.
A lo mejor no celebran que ese día se conocieron. Tal vez se trata de que es la onomástica de ella, que se llama Blanca o Nieves o Edurne o Zuriñe y la espera junto a la iglesia donde está la imagen de la Virgen Blanca, patrona de la ciudad.
¿Y por qué no? ¿No será que su propósito es una nueva conquista? ;-)

Antes de que la navegación GPS y los radios fueran inventados, un faro se colocaba como el punto de destino de muchos marineros y capitanes que ya estaban en el agua con su embarcación. El faro fue creado en la década de 1700 y fue un punto focal de bienvenida para aquellos que necesitan ayuda y luz para llevarlos de vuelta a la costa con seguridad.
Hoy en día con la tecnología del GPS (sistema de posicionamiento global, en inglés) los faros casi son algo obsoleto. Aún así siguen manteniendo muchos de ellos su majestuosidad. Fuerteventura conserva varios de ellos, como son el Faro de Isla de Lobos, el Faro de Jandía, el Faro del Cotillo o el Faro de la Entallada.
El faro de la Entallada, consta de una torre y tres viviendas iguales. Precisamente este faro fue el último en construirse en España, 1953
Se encuentra en el municipio de Tuineje, a unos 6 km del pueblo de Las Playitas, y a unos 12 km de Gran Tarajal. Esta ubicado en la cima de un acantilado de 200 metros de altura, y es el punto geográfico de Canarias más cercano a África (unos 100 kilómetros).
Las vistas son espectaculares, tanto al mar como al Monumento Natural Cuchillos de Vigán, zona protegida debido a su alto interés científico. Los Cuchillos son montañas alargadas entre dos valles, y son restos de grandes acumulaciones de coladas volcánicas que formaron grandes edificios. Su altura es de 500 metros.

Lacock Abbey is a quirky country house, developed over the centuries around a former 13th century nunnery, and the birthplace of modern photography. It is set in spacious wooded grounds, with plenty of space to picnic, and is now recognisable from films varying from Pride and Prejudice to Harry Potter.
It was home to the Fox Talbot family. In the early 19th century, polymath William Henry Fox Talbot invented the photographic negative, a cornerstone in the rise of photography as both an art and a popular hobby.
His achievements are celebrated in the Abbey itself and in a museum of photography, which also hosts a rolling programme of photography exhibitions.

Invented in the 1850’s, a stereoscope is a device for viewing a stereoscopic pair of separate images as a single three-dimensional image.
In 1861 Oliver Wendell Holmes (father of Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. of the US Supreme Court) created a streamlined and much more economical version. This Holmes Stereoscope became the most popular form of the 19th century and remains in limited production today.
Invented by a local man, Martin Quinn, this grass is a beautiful addition to the garden. I usually cut the grasses down in the fall but decided to leave this one to see how it behaves in the winter.

Pretty wild to think a Canadian came up with one of the most iconic American sports. 🏀
The game of basketball was invented by Dr. James Naismith in December 1891 in Springfield, Massachusetts, USA. He was a Canadian physical education instructor working at the Springfield College (then known as the International YMCA Training School). Dr. James Naismith, born in 1861, on a farm on the outskirts of a thriving mill town called Almonte in the Canadian province of Ontario. He created the sport to keep his students active indoors during the cold winter months. Using a soccer ball and two peach baskets nailed to the balcony of a gymnasium, Naismith came up with 13 basic rules.
The birth story of the game of basketball is fascinating to read on the Springfield College website provided below. Naismith used a medieval children’s game called “Duck on a rock” that he used to play when he was a kid as an inspiration when he developed the first rules of basketball. According to Naismith audio story in 1939 about the first game in December 1891, it was a “free-for-all” – nine players were injured. It was not easy to keep college football players from tackling.
In 1904, the game was introduced as a demonstration sport in the Summer Olympics in St. Louis. In 1936, it became an Olympic sport, and Naismith travelled to Berlin to award the medals to the winning teams: gold to the U.S., silver to Canada, and bronze for Mexico. He died at age 74 in 1939.

Il est assez incroyable de penser qu'un Canadien ait inventé l'un des sports américains les plus emblématiques. 🏀
Le basketball a été inventé par le Dr James Naismith en décembre 1891 à Springfield, dans le Massachusetts, aux États-Unis. Ce professeur d'éducation physique canadien travaillait au Springfield College (alors connu sous le nom d'International YMCA Training School). Né en 1861 dans une ferme à la périphérie d'Almonte, une ville industrielle prospère de l'Ontario, le Dr James Naismith a créé ce sport pour permettre à ses élèves de rester actifs à l'intérieur pendant les froids mois d'hiver. À l'aide d'un ballon de soccer et de deux paniers de pêches cloués au balcon d'un gymnase, Naismith a élaboré 13 règles de base.
L'histoire de la naissance du basketball est fascinante à lire sur le site web du Springfield College, disponible ci-dessous. Naismith s'est inspiré d'un jeu médiéval pour enfants appelé « Canard sur un rocher », auquel il jouait enfant, pour élaborer les premières règles du basketball. Selon le récit audio de Naismith de 1939 sur le premier match de décembre 1891, ce fut une véritable mêlée générale : neuf joueurs furent blessés. Il n'était pas facile d'empêcher les joueurs de football universitaire de plaquer.
En 1904, ce sport fut introduit comme sport de démonstration aux Jeux olympiques d'été de Saint-Louis. En 1936, il devint un sport olympique et Naismith se rendit à Berlin pour remettre les médailles aux équipes gagnantes : l'or aux États-Unis, l'argent au Canada et le bronze au Mexique. Il mourut à 74 ans en 1939.

Antoni Gaudí
Gaudí was an architect with an innate sense of geometry and volume, as well as a great imaginative capacity that allowed him to mentally project most of his works before moving them to plans. In fact, he rarely made detailed plans of his works; he preferred to recreate them on three-dimensional models, molding all the details as he thought of them. On other occasions, he would improvise on the fly, giving instructions to his collaborators about what they should do.
The work of Gaudí has achieved a wide international spread over the years, with countless studies dedicated to his way of understanding architecture. Nowadays, it is admired both by professionals and by the general public: La Sagrada Familia is currently one of the most visited monuments in Spain. Between 1984 and 2005 seven of its works have been considered a World Heritage Site by Unesco.
