Sagrada Família, Barcelona, España.
El Templo Expiatorio de la Sagrada Familia, conocido simplemente como la Sagrada Familia, es una basílica católica de Barcelona (España), diseñada por el arquitecto Antoni Gaudí. Iniciada en 1882, todavía está en construcción (noviembre de 2016). Es la obra maestra de Gaudí, y el máximo exponente de la arquitectura modernista catalana.
La Sagrada Familia es un reflejo de la plenitud artística de Gaudí: trabajó en ella durante la mayor parte de su carrera profesional, pero especialmente en los últimos años de su carrera, donde llegó a la culminación de su estilo naturalista, haciendo una síntesis de todas las soluciones y estilos probados hasta aquel entonces. Gaudí logró una perfecta armonía en la interrelación entre los elementos estructurales y los ornamentales, entre plástica y estética, entre función y forma, entre contenido y continente, logrando la integración de todas las artes en un todo estructurado y lógico.
La Sagrada Familia tiene planta de cruz latina, de cinco naves centrales y transepto de tres naves, y ábside con siete capillas. Ostenta tres fachadas dedicadas al Nacimiento, Pasión y Gloria de Jesús y, cuando esté concluida, tendrá 18 torres: cuatro en cada portal haciendo un total de doce por los apóstoles, cuatro sobre el crucero invocando a los evangelistas, una sobre el ábside dedicada a la Virgen y la torre-cimborio central en honor a Jesús, que alcanzará los 172,5 metros de altura. El templo dispondrá de dos sacristías junto al ábside, y de tres grandes capillas: la de la Asunción en el ábside y las del Bautismo y la Penitencia junto a la fachada principal; asimismo, estará rodeado de un claustro pensado para las procesiones y para aislar el templo del exterior. Gaudí aplicó a la Sagrada Familia un alto contenido simbólico, tanto en arquitectura como en escultura, dedicando a cada parte del templo un significado religioso.

Gaudí achieved perfect harmony in the interrelationship between structural and ornamental elements, between plasticity and aesthetics, between function and form, between content and container, achieving the integration of all the arts into a structured and logical whole. The Sagrada Familia has a Latin cross plan, five central naves, a three-aisled transept, and an apse with seven chapels. It boasts three façades dedicated to the Birth, Passion, and Glory of Jesus. When completed, it will have 18 towers: four at each portal, making a total of twelve for the apostles, four over the transept invoking the evangelists, one over the apse dedicated to the Virgin, and the central dome tower in honor of Jesus, which will reach 172.5 meters in height. The temple will have two sacristies next to the apse and three large chapels: the Assumption Chapel in the apse and the Baptism and Penance Chapels next to the main façade. It will also be surrounded by a cloister designed for processions and to isolate the temple from the exterior.

This image wishes it was a real diptych.
Sorry to keep uploading similar stuff from the other day…
I just loved all of these shots too much not to.
"Non c’è che una stagione: l’estate.
Tanto bella che le altre le girano attorno.
L’autunno la ricorda, l’inverno la invoca, la primavera la invidia."
"There is only one season: summer.
So beautiful that the others turn around.
Autumn remembers it, winter invokes it , spring envies it."

This door gives access to the Oda Chapel, dedicated to Saint Oda and Saint Appolonia. The chapel owes its name to these saints. According to tradition, after many wanderings on the run from her father, Oda would eventually have arrived in Boshoven, where her stay was betrayed by a magpie, after which she would have gone to Sint-Oedenrode. Oda is invoked against eye diseases. Apollonia is invoked against toothaches (though I would advise you to go to docter...).
The chapel was restored in the 1980s and is now a national monument. The chapel is open on weekends for visitors and reflection. Masses are celebrated in February, May and November. The chapel can also be reserved for wedding masses, baptisms and other celebrations.

“At the Top” of Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world
… invoking my photo Metropolis from Tokyo 5 years ago …
It’s been a flurry of travels and fleeting impressions … hope all is well in the FlickrVerse
The big open space on the left is a little uncomfortable to me, I want to add text or something. But I thought about that and wondered if it might be better to leave it blank. Allow space to wander and wonder why is there a big space there and why do I feel like I need to fill it?
Maybe I just need to slow down and rest some more in thought and perhaps invoke some conscious dreaming. While I stare, the spider web grabs my attention and leads me back to the wide open space. I notice the gap between my thoughts and breathe out deeply. My shoulders drop as unconscious tension subsides.
Thanks Spidey!
The Nougugawa (農具川) river may look like a canal but it is a natural river that rises in Lake Aoki, flows through Lake Nakatsuna and Lake Kizaki, and finally joins the Takasegawa river. It is important as a source of canals that feed the rice paddies in Oomachi and Ikeda.
Susuki (Silvergrass, Miscanthus sinensis) is a plant in the grass family native to East Asia. It is known as an invasive species in North America. Susuki is a popular plant for Japanese paintings to invokes a rustic mood on the riverside.
It is also a material for thatched roofs (茅葺き屋根 Kayabuki Yane) of traditional wooden houses.

The punctum points to those features of a photograph that seem to produce or convey a meaning without invoking any recognizable symbolic system. This kind of meaning is unique to the response of the individual viewer of the image. The punctum punctuates the studium and as a result pierces its viewer. To allow the punctum effect, the viewer must repudiate all knowledge. Barthes insists that the punctum is not simply the sum of desires projected into the photograph. Instead, it arises from details that are unintended or uncontrolled by the photographer. Source Museum of educatuion.

Saptami Mahapuja is celebrated on the seventh day of NavratriIt is also called Maha Saptami Puja as on this day, the 7th form of Maa Durga is invoked in the morning with Navpatrika ..
মহাসপ্তমীর পুণ্য তিথিতে মা এর আশীর্বাদ সর্বদা তোমার সাথে থাকুক…. শুভ মহা সপ্তমী
“শরত তোমার অরুণ আলোর অঞ্জলি..” -রবীন্দ্রনাথ ঠাকুর
আশ্বিনের এই শারদ-প্রাতে দিনগুলি হয়ে উঠুক আরো আনন্দ-মুখর.. শুভ সপ্তমীর প্রীতি ও শুভেচ্ছা..
নীল আকাশে মেঘ সরিয়ে,
মায়ের রথ আসছে এগিয়ে,
পুজোর হাওয়ায় ভাসলো মন্,
ঢাকের কাঠি বাজলো যখন।
শুভ সপ্তমী।
কাশ ফুলের সুবাস যখন লাগলো এসে মনে,
দুষ্টুমি ভরা হারানো ছেলেবেলা খুজেঁ পাই প্রানে,
সব চিন্তা থেকে মুক্তি মিলবে তখন
যখন দুর্গতি নাশিনী মায়ের হবে আগমন্।
শুভ মহা সপ্তমী।

Gaudí achieved perfect harmony in the interrelationship between structural and ornamental elements, between plasticity and aesthetics, between function and form, between content and container, achieving the integration of all the arts into a structured and logical whole. The Sagrada Familia has a Latin cross plan, five central naves, a three-aisled transept, and an apse with seven chapels. It boasts three façades dedicated to the Birth, Passion, and Glory of Jesus. When completed, it will have 18 towers: four at each portal, making a total of twelve for the apostles, four over the transept invoking the evangelists, one over the apse dedicated to the Virgin, and the central dome tower in honor of Jesus, which will reach 172.5 meters in height. The temple will have two sacristies next to the apse and three large chapels: the Assumption Chapel in the apse and the Baptism and Penance Chapels next to the main façade. It will also be surrounded by a cloister designed for processions and to isolate the temple from the exterior. Gaudí applied a highly symbolic content to the Sagrada Familia, both in architecture and sculpture, dedicating each part of the temple to a religious significance.
"Lies!
She is alive!
Beneath the ice
Only darkest mirrors crack this
Curse
And I, immersed
Invoke the worst
Blackest Magick put to practice"
I love simplicity, but thoughts are complicated, sometimes you need a complicated image to invoke your thoughts at that moment. The story behind this image is to reflect what an artist sees through another artist's work.
It is very hard not to capture other bystanders in a public display. I took many shots with my tripod and use Photoshop Stack to remove all the other point and shooters but this photographer. He just stood there for a long time and appeared on most of my frames. So I put him back on this image to reflect his admiration at that frozen moment.
the rise of Artificial Intelligence is something we all should be aware of and maybe weary of since we are dabbling with the unknown here in matters of potential outcomes of this development we have kicked off. I use to think of our Robotics Industries and Labs as a kind of Goethe's Wizard's Apprentice: Invoking spirits that we may no be able to tame and deal with.
Happy Sliders Easter Sunday!

OH WOW!!! This place completely blew me away when I visited it in the rain recently. Having walked down the steep steps via the boardwalk to the wooden viewing platform, I immediately knew that the shot that I wanted was further forward. Thankfully I decided to wear wellies and boy did they sure come in handy.
The sheer thunderous roar of all that water tipping over the 30 metre rocky edge invoked a sense of amazement but it was the view of the waterfall though the surrounding trees that won me over for they helped to frame the main subject perfectly.

Sweet torrents of Death
Oh engulfing ruin
Every fall is a soul
For Belial
In sinless guilt rushing
Blasts of yokeless glory
To and fro - Red ascension
Collecting souls
For Belial
For Belial
And as our voice uncovers
Another soul to the stream
Another soul devoured
For Belial
Oh lawless angel we approach thee
In the form of proudest shame
We thy children - here assembled
Now thy promised blessing claim
Promised blessing claim
Lord of arrogance - lord of pride
Fling thy unrestrained nets thrice
And let the rivers of the under world
Swiftly to the surface rise
Oh spirit of darkness we invoke thee
In the name of all things depraved
We thy servants - here forgathered
Now thy promised blessing claim
Promised blessing claim
Sweet torrents of death
Oh engulfing ruin
Every fall is a soul
For Belial
For Belial
For Belial
Angels of sweed
Ever rising decline
Every slip is a soul
For Belial
For Belial
For Belial
In sinless guilt rushing
Blasts of yokeless glory
To and fro - Red ascension
Collecting souls
For Belial
For Belial
And as our voice uncovers
Another soul to the stream
Another soul devoured
For Belial

young people, Italian Catholic youth. His patronage is also invoked by the Church for students, college students, seminarians, novices, youth, clerics, gun owners and the region of Abruzzi, Italy. Thousands of divine favors are attributed to his intercession with Christ Crucified and the Sorrowful Mother Mary.

Now, let's listen .
Let your name flow off my tongue, as rivers flow into their own mouths. Let your love part my thighs, as the Sun parts the horizon when it wakes. Let your worship cling to my skirts, as the Moon clings to its starlight.
Swallow it down, invoke me.
The Lazzaretto of Ancona, also called the Mole Vanvitelliana, is a pentagonal 18th-century building built on an artificial island as a quarantine station for the port town of Ancona, Italy.
The island is now connected to the mainland by three bridges. The building was commissioned by Pope Clement XII, designed by the architect Luigi Vanvitelli, and built from 1733−1743. It originally had only one link to the mainland. A well was located in the central Neoclassical tempietto dedicated to Saint Roch, invoked against the plague, in the center of the courtyard. It was built to house possibly-infected travellers and goods arriving in the port.
Over the years, the site has taken different functions, mainly as a military citadel since the 19th century. During World War I, there was a failed attempt to sabotage the Italian naval resources by 60 infiltrating Habsburg sailors. Now it is used as a site of the museum Tattile Omero, as well as home for various exhibitions.
It is not clear why a pentagonal shape was chosen for the building. However, the rationalistic and functional ensemble is common to many works of late Enlightenment architecture. The efforts of this work can be compared to the contemporary architecture of institutions meant to provide geometrically compelling structures to house services for the poor in Naples by Fernando Fuga, such as the massive Royal Hospice and Hospital for the Poor and the mathematical Cemetery of the 366 Fossae.
Sagrada Família, Barcelona, España.
El Templo Expiatorio de la Sagrada Familia, conocido simplemente como la Sagrada Familia, es una basílica católica de Barcelona (España), diseñada por el arquitecto Antoni Gaudí. Iniciada en 1882, todavía está en construcción (noviembre de 2016). Es la obra maestra de Gaudí, y el máximo exponente de la arquitectura modernista catalana.
La Sagrada Familia es un reflejo de la plenitud artística de Gaudí: trabajó en ella durante la mayor parte de su carrera profesional, pero especialmente en los últimos años de su carrera, donde llegó a la culminación de su estilo naturalista, haciendo una síntesis de todas las soluciones y estilos probados hasta aquel entonces. Gaudí logró una perfecta armonía en la interrelación entre los elementos estructurales y los ornamentales, entre plástica y estética, entre función y forma, entre contenido y continente, logrando la integración de todas las artes en un todo estructurado y lógico.
La Sagrada Familia tiene planta de cruz latina, de cinco naves centrales y transepto de tres naves, y ábside con siete capillas. Ostenta tres fachadas dedicadas al Nacimiento, Pasión y Gloria de Jesús y, cuando esté concluida, tendrá 18 torres: cuatro en cada portal haciendo un total de doce por los apóstoles, cuatro sobre el crucero invocando a los evangelistas, una sobre el ábside dedicada a la Virgen y la torre-cimborio central en honor a Jesús, que alcanzará los 172,5 metros de altura. El templo dispondrá de dos sacristías junto al ábside, y de tres grandes capillas: la de la Asunción en el ábside y las del Bautismo y la Penitencia junto a la fachada principal; asimismo, estará rodeado de un claustro pensado para las procesiones y para aislar el templo del exterior. Gaudí aplicó a la Sagrada Familia un alto contenido simbólico, tanto en arquitectura como en escultura, dedicando a cada parte del templo un significado religioso.

In Argentina it is spring, but this weekend it was cold and I had to get warm to get out. When I return home I take off my wool pullover and I throw it on my bed. In that action I dropped it an "alfajor" (sorry, I don´t know the english word) on the floor; when I bend down to pick it up I uncover the landscape that had been formed with a sleeve of the pullover. To make the picture more interesting, I invoke to the moon that I created with a 1 (one) AAA batery mini pocket flashlight.. and voila! We are in the mountains!!

Well, I've heard that the Devil's walking around
I sold my soul way down in the dirt
But stole it back and forever in debt
And for a moment I don't even care
Until I feel his breath at my neck
And maybe even you can feel it too
He's on a strike and looking at you
Holding onto his words, but baby
I saw an angel become the Devil
Still they walk pretty good hand in hand
Well, baby, I don't need any of them
Heaven nor hell
well, I've heard that the morning star of a prince
Was invoked on a Monday on Earth
I found his business card in the mud
And for a moment I don't even care
Until I feel his breath at my neck
And maybe even you can feel it too
He's on a strike and looking at you
The same Location as the previous photo. This tree sits on the edge of the valley from the photo "The Valley Beyond" from five or six years ago. This of course doesn't have the valley visible due to the clouds that descended down onto the ridges here. It's a shame that the view is obscured, but this does give the opportunity for a more intimate landscape. The Mister invokes feelings of mystery, fear, dread, curiosity. Photography is a personal venture, and intimate in nature while you're doing the shoot, only later do you share the experience with the world after the deed has been done.

painted, etched or photographed under such conditions— the transitory instead of the eternal. But I don't want the play of sunlight to excite the fancy, nor the mystery of gloom to invoke the imagination— wearing coloured glasses— I want the greater mystery of things revealed more clearly than the eyes see, at least more than the layman, the casual observer notes. I would have a microscope, shall have one some day.

In Norse mythology, from which most surviving narratives about gods among the Germanic peoples stem, Týr sacrifices his arm to the monstrous wolf Fenrir, who bites off his limb while the gods bind the animal. Týr is foretold to be consumed by the similarly monstrous dog Garmr during the events of Ragnarök. In Old Norse sources, Týr is alternately described as the son of the jötunn Hymir (in Hymiskviða) or of the god Odin (in Skáldskaparmál). Lokasenna makes reference to an unnamed otherwise unknown consort, perhaps also reflected in the continental Germanic record (see Zisa (goddess)).
Various place names in Scandinavia refer to the god, and a variety of objects found in England and Scandinavia may depict the god or invoke him. wikipedia

A major storm is blowing through our area with high winds and copious rainfall that is expected to turn to snow on Friday. They've named the storm "Winter Storm Nadia." This is the first time I remember a storm on the West Coast being named.

Considering how winter doesn't want to let go this year,this invasion of "spring" in this badly decaying abandoned farmhouse caught my eye this morning.Wind chills here in northwest Illinois were in the single digits this morning,and the forecasts of 1-4" of snow tomorrow did nothing to give any hope of normalcy soon.Forecasts for the end of next week do show temps near 60 degrees thankfully....
I don't know if this will invoke many "smiles",but everybody have a great weekend nonetheless!

This gorgeous yellow hybrid Phalaenopsis “Sin Yuan” invokes warm colours of autumn.
To go a viking was the call
To be answered by Norsemen blonde and tall
And so they rode the dragon boats
The powers of Thor and Odin they did invoke
Once more upon a foreign shore
Spared not the weak who did emplore
For mercy from untimely death
A viking was a raid unto death
The weak and feeble felt the axe
Even the strong had no hope to match
The power of its savage bite
And when the blow fell death came in sight
Of those yet to fall
Delivered by a norseman tall
Few were spared and taken slave
To labour for their remaining days
Then the longships turned once more for home
Few Norsemen dead no more to roam
There is a name for what they did
To Go A Viking

Son variadas las leyendas donde relacionan diversos animales que son considerados y utilizados como amuletos para la buena suerte, uno de ellos es el búho, ave cuyos ojos son símbolo de la intuición, de sabiduría e inteligencia. Algunos utilizan accesorios con la figura de este alado, para invocar la buena suerte.
Según el portal Soyesoterica.com, se tiene la creencia que el tener un encuentro de forma casual con un búho, es una excelente señal de buen augurio en todos los sentidos, pero fundamentalmente en el aspecto económico.
De otra parte, también se dice que los búhos son buenos protectores contra el oscurantismo y la ignorancia, por ello no es difícil encontrar la representación del animal en objetos como talismanes o adornos que llevan las personas y en ocasiones los puedan tener en sus residencias.
Desde ya a todos mis amigos les deseo que frente a la adversidad que caracterizó este año, lo terminemos con sabiduria e inteligencia.

The legends are varied where various animals that are considered and used as amulets for good luck are related, one of them is the owl, a bird whose eyes are a symbol of intuition, wisdom and intelligence. Some use accessories with the figure of this winged, to invoke good luck.
According to the portal Soyesoterica.com, it is believed that having a chance encounter with an owl is an excellent sign of a good omen in every way, but fundamentally financially.
On the other hand, it is also said that owls are good protectors against obscurantism and ignorance, so it is not difficult to find the representation of the animal in objects such as talismans or ornaments that people carry and sometimes they can have in their residences.
From now on I wish all my friends that in the face of the adversity that characterized this year, we end it with wisdom and intelligence.

Laut dem Portal Soyesoterica.com wird angenommen, dass eine zufällige Begegnung mit einer Eule in jeder Hinsicht, aber grundsätzlich finanziell, ein hervorragendes Zeichen für ein gutes Omen ist.
Andererseits wird auch gesagt, dass Eulen ein guter Beschützer gegen Obskurantismus und Unwissenheit sind, so dass es nicht schwierig ist, die Darstellung des Tieres in Gegenständen wie Talismanen oder Ornamenten zu finden, die Menschen tragen und manchmal in ihren Wohnungen haben können.
Von nun an wünsche ich allen meinen Freunden, dass wir es angesichts der Widrigkeiten, die dieses Jahr geprägt haben, mit Weisheit und Intelligenz beenden.

Les légendes sont variées où divers animaux considérés et utilisés comme amulettes pour la bonne chance sont liés, l’un d’eux est le hibou, un oiseau dont les yeux sont un symbole d’intuition, de sagesse et d’intelligence. Certains utilisent des accessoires avec la figure de cet ailé, pour invoquer la bonne chance.
Selon le portail Soyesoterica.com, on pense qu'avoir une rencontre fortuite avec un hibou est un excellent signe de bon augure à tous égards, mais fondamentalement financièrement.
D'autre part, on dit aussi que les hiboux sont de bons protecteurs contre l'obscurantisme et l'ignorance, il n'est donc pas difficile de trouver la représentation de l'animal dans des objets tels que des talismans ou des ornements que les gens portent et parfois ils peuvent avoir dans leurs résidences.
Désormais, je souhaite à tous mes amis que face à l'adversité qui a caractérisé cette année, nous la terminons avec sagesse et intelligence.

Theresa May made it clear that UK won't invoke Article 50 within the year. Imagine the turmoils the British pound and British properties and equities have to undergo within the period, and whether the British voters could withstand the sharp shocks that is anything but short. Other than economic punishments, they now say "the referendum was not binding", but "was only advisory" and that it's something which only the Parliament can decide on... The odds are, they are not going to make it, so long as the matter is muddling on.
Agra Fort, India, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The fort also was the site of the battle of the 1857 Indian Mutiny witnessing the end of the rule of the East Indian Company and the beginning of direct British rule in India. Now that India is independent and British Raj no more, the Britons come and go here only as a visitor ......
The Fort is a walled city which has been in the location since the 11th century having changed hands a number of times. It was during the reign of Akbar's grandson that the site took on its current state using a lot of white marble. He built Taj Mahal 2.5 km away in the memory of his wife. At the end of his life, he was deposed and restrained by his son in the fort. He died in a tower therein with a view of the Taj Mahal.
Sony Music UK recently announced that The D-Day Darlings’ are the best-selling female group to come out of Britain’s Got Talent for debut week album sales. The Darlings’ debut album ‘I’ll Remember You’ recently entered the chart at number 15 the UK Official Albums Chart and founder and lead singer of The D-Day Darlings Katie Ashby couldn’t be happier.
“Sony decided to put their faith in us,” Katie told Andy Howells, “They are so mindful to protect what we stand for and to do it with dignity. It’s brilliant we’re so happy!”
Katie formed the group in 2008 with the intention of wanting to invoke the spirit of the wartime era and the beautiful, heartfelt music recorded during the period. The Darlings initially performed to older generations in care homes around her native Yorkshire as well as wartime themed festivals.
What a FAB performance they put at the Black Country Living Museum’s highly popular 1940s Weekend.
