Statue of Sobek with Amenhotep III at the Luxor Museum.
The refinement of modeling and the perfect balance between god and king makes this a great work of art.

Sobek (also called Sebek, Sochet, Sobk, and Sobki), in Greek, Suchos (Σοῦχος) and from Latin Suchus, was an ancient Egyptian deity with a complex and fluid nature. He is associated with the Nile crocodile or the West African crocodile and is represented either in its form or as a human with a crocodile head. Sobek was also associated with pharaonic power, fertility, and military prowess, but served additionally as a protective deity with apotropaic qualities, invoked particularly for protection against the dangers presented by the Nile.

Yes, I stole that title from an old Culture Club song, but love the imagery that it invokes.

What I present here on Flickr is a photographic account of the festival held every year in Palazzolo Acreide (Syracuse) in honor of Saint Michael the Archangel. This year the festival was celebrated on October 5th. The cult of Saint Michael the Archangel in Palazzolo Acreide seems to date back to the Arab-Norman period of Sicily (in Sicily, that period from the Arab conquest, 827 AD, which took it from the Byzantines, until the complete domination of the Normans, around 1194 AD). This is an era in which Sicily became a "container" of the most diverse cultures, Byzantine, Arab, Latin, Norman, thus creating a cultural, artistic and scientific synthesis: in this period, Christians invoked the "fighting" Archangel so that He could help them drive the Saracens from ancient Palazzolo (Palatiolum). On the eve of the liturgical feast (28 September), the “sciuta ra cammina” takes place, or what in other Sicilian feasts is called “la svelata” (the unveiled). The curtain covering the statue of the Archangel, placed in a “small room” above the main altar, is opened. Remaining behind the curtain, it is blocked from view for almost the entire year. The statue, now exposed for the adoration of the faithful, is moved forward a little (“sciuta ra cammina”, or “la svelata – the exit that walks” referring to the statue, which is carried forward). On the day of the big celebration, at 11:00 a.m., there will be a "hot air balloon launch." The organizers explained to me that the hot air balloons are made entirely of paper. The writing is also made with paper letters that are then glued together. The hot air produced beneath the balloons will make them fly. This year, the writing was in tune with the echo of the "People of Peace" movement, which hopes for an end to the war in Ukraine, waged by Russia, and for an end to Israeli oppression of the Palestinian people. At 1:00 pm the “sciuta” takes place, or the “exit” of the float with the statue of the Saint on it, carried on the shoulders of the devout bearers, to begin the procession. At that eagerly awaited moment, the fireworks are set off simultaneously, as are the “nzareddi” (long ribbons of colored paper, along with large confetti (the same ones seen during the exit of San Paolo, for his feast day, always in Palazzolo A.), the faithful explode in displays of jubilation, with their arms stretched high and invoking San Michele in a loud voice (this seems contagious to me, I too felt the need to raise my arms to the sky invoking San Michele, despite the photographic equipment….:o))…), the festive music of the marching band. Thus begins the procession toward the neighboring neighborhoods. The float is carried bare-shouldered by devout bearers. Long banners proceed at the front of the procession. Many devout women walk barefoot. Many children, both boys and girls, are lifted up and shown to the Archangel to ask for his spiritual intercession to protect them from evil. In thanksgiving, donations of banknotes or gold jewelry are made. Some typical curiosities of this celebration include: the statue of Saint Michael wears a breastplate made from gold from votive offerings donated over the centuries. It was later decided to melt them down and create his "gold-colored" breastplate. The statue of the Archangel, unlike what is seen in other Sicilian celebrations (usually from the "camera" located on the main altar, the saint, or saints, is made to descend by sliding on two tracks to reach the float, placed in front of the altar), here in Palazzolo A., instead, the simulacrum of the Archangel descends with a special ancient "elevator", placed under the small room, then behind the main altar, then lovingly carried in arms up to the float; on the shield of the Archangel, in the church that bears his name, on the T-shirts of the devotees, and on those of the boys and girls exposed to the Archangel, one reads "Quis ut Deus", it is the Latin translation of the name Michael (in Hebrew Mîkhā’ēl), which means “Who is like God?”, this expression is traditionally attributed to Saint Michael the Archangel, leader of the celestial armies, because, according to Christian tradition, it was the cry he uttered when he rebelled against Satan and his angels during the battle in heaven, affirming both the supremacy and uniqueness of God, and his devotion and loyalty towards the divine.

Questo che presento qui su Flickr, è un racconto fotografico della festa che si tiene ogni anno a Palazzolo Acreide (Siracusa) in onore di San Michele Arcangelo, quest’anno la festa è stata celebrata il 5 ottobre. Il culto per San Michele Arcangelo a Palazzolo Acreide, sembra risalga al periodo arabo-normanno della Sicilia (in Sicilia quel periodo che va dalla conquista araba, 827 d.C, che la sottrae ai Bizantini, fino al completo dominio dei Normanni, circa 1194 d.C.), questa è un’epoca nella quale la Sicilia diviene un “contenitore” di culture le più diverse, bizantina, araba, latina, normanna, realizzandosi in tal modo una sintesi culturale, artistica e scientifica: in questo periodo i Cristiani invocano l’Arcangelo “che combatte” affinchè Egli li possa aiutare a scacciare i Saraceni dall’antica Palazzolo (Palatiolum). Il giorno della vigilia della festa liturgica (28 settembre), si ha la “sciuta ra cammina”, ovvero quella che in altre feste siciliana si chiama “la svelata”, si apre la tenda che copre la statua dell’Arcangelo, posta in una “cameretta” posta sopra l’altare maggiore, restando dietro la tenda viene preclusa alla vista per quasi tutto l’anno, la statua esposta ora all’adorazione dei fedeli, viene fatta avanzare di poco (“sciuta ra cammina”, ovvero “la svelata-l’uscita che cammina” riferita alla statua, che viene portata in avanti). Il giorno della grande festa alle ore 11:00 c’è la manifestazione del “lancio delle mongolfiere”, gli organizzatori mi hanno spiegato che le mongolfiere sono realizzate completamente con la carta, le scritte sono fatte anch’esse con lettere di carta poi incollate, l’aria calda prodotta sotto tali mongolfiere le farà volare: quest’anno le scritte erano in sintonia con quella eco del “Popolo della Pace” che spera nella fine della guerra in Ucraina ad opera della Russia, e nella fine della oppressione Israeliana verso il popolo Palestinese. Alle ore 13:00 avviene la “sciuta”, ovvero “l’uscita” della vara con sopra il simulacro del Santo, portato in spalla dai devoti portatori, per iniziare la processione, in quel momento, attesissimo, avviene in contemporanea lo sparo dei fuochi d’artificio, lo sparo degli “nzareddi” (sono lunghi nastri di carta colorata, insieme a grossi coriandoli (gli stessi si assistono durante l’uscita di San Paolo, per la sua festa, sempre a Palazzolo A.), i fedeli esplodono in manifestazioni di esultanza, con le braccia protese in alto ed invocando San Michele a gran voce (cosa questa che a me sembra contagiosa, anch’io ho sentito il bisogno di alzare le braccia al cielo invocando San Michele, nonostante l’attrezzatura fotografica….:o))…), la musica festosa della banda musicale. Inizia così la processione verso i quartieri vicini, la vara viene portata con la “spalla nuda” dai devoti portatori, lunghi stendardi procedono davanti nella processione, molte donne devote camminano a piedi scalzi, molti bimbi o bimbe, vengono alzati e mostrati all’Arcangelo, per chiedere la sua intercessione spirituale per essere protetti dal male, in ringraziamento ci sono donazioni di bancanote o monili d’oro. Alcune curiosità tipiche di questa festa sono: la statua di San Michele ha una corazza realizzata con l’oro proveniente dagli Ex Voto donati nei trascorsi secoli, poi si decise di fonderli e realizzare la sua corazza “color oro”; la statua dell’Arcangelo a differenza di ciò che si vede in altre feste siciliane (in genere dalla “cameretta” che si trova sull’altare maggiore, il santo, o più santi, viene fatto scendere scorrendo su due binari per giungere sulla vara, posta davanti l’altare), qui a Palazzolo A., invece il simulacro dell’Arcangelo scende con un particolare antico “ascensore”, posto sotto la cameretta, quindi dietro l’altare maggiore, poi portato amorevolmente in braccio fin sopra la vara; sullo scudo dell’Arcangelo, nella chiesa che porta il suo nome, sulle magliette dei devoti, su quelle dei bimbi e bimbe esposte all’Arcangelo, si legge “Quis ut Deus”, è la traduzione in latino del nome Michele (in ebraico Mîkhā’ēl), che appunto significa “Chi è come Dio?”, questa espressione è tradizionalmente attribuita a San Michele Arcangelo, capo delle milizie celesti, perché, secondo la tradizione cristiana, fu il grido che egli pronunciò quando si ribellò a Satana e ai suoi angeli durante la battaglia in cielo, affermando e la supremazia e unicità di Dio, e la sua devozione e lealtà verso il divino. .

I had the pleasure of 6 days in the Lakes over Easter and, on the whole, was very lucky with the weather.
On two of the mornings we had what can only be described as classic 'pea souper' conditions..which seem to invoke two modes of operation for those wanting to make photographs.
The first is to get to a highpoint in the hope that you break through the fog and are able to see it as a blanket lying across the landscape.. whilst the second is to seek out those everyday items that you might ordinarily walk past which take on a completely different 'look and feel' when shrouded in fog or mist.
This is one example of the latter mode...a place frequented by lots of walkers on virtually every day of the year..and possibly hundreds at the height of the season, but which, on this morning felt completely isolated and far from the madding crowd...
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.

Begun in 1882, it is still under construction (November 2016). It is Gaudí's masterpiece and the greatest exponent of Catalan modernist architecture.
The Sagrada Familia is a reflection of Gaudí's artistic plenitude: he worked on it for most of his professional career, but especially in his later years, where he reached the culmination of his naturalistic style, synthesizing all the solutions and styles he had tried up to that point. 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.
Ganesh is one of the best-known and most worshipped deities in the Hindu pantheon.
Although he is known by many attributes, Ganesha's elephant head makes him easy to identify. He is widely revered as the remover of obstacles, the patron of arts and sciences and the deva of intellect and wisdom. As the god of beginnings, he is honoured at the start of rituals and ceremonies. Ganesha is also invoked as patron of letters and learning during writing sessions.

Freyja rules over her heavenly field, Fólkvangr, where she receives half of those who die in battle. The other half go to the god Odin's hall, Valhalla. Within Fólkvangr lies her hall, Sessrúmnir. Freyja assists other deities by allowing them to use her feathered cloak, is invoked in matters of fertility and love, and is frequently sought after by powerful jötnar who wish to make her their wife. Freyja's husband, the god Óðr, is frequently absent. She cries tears of red gold for him, and searches for him under assumed names. Freyja has numerous names, including Gefn, Hörn, Mardöll, Sýr, Vanadís, and Valfreyja.

It's still one of my favorite shots from that time and invokes feelings of nostalgia in me.

Artist: Michelle Purchase (@michelle_purchase_studio)
Location: 48 Ontario Street
Medium: Etching with chine-collé
Working primarily in printmaking, drawing and installation, Michelle Purchase’s work investigates the relationships between homes and the natural world. She explores concepts of comfort and shelter, and how we purposefully try to feel either connected or disconnected to our surrounding environment. Her work plays with the balance between exposure and seclusion, in both a physical and a psychological sense. Based on real places, using natural and handmade materials, she transforms the familiar into a magical space. Much of her artwork invokes a sense of childhood nostalgia or sparks getaway dreams.
This mural was created from a print. It is a copper plate etching and dry-point, printed on Japanese mitsumata and gampi tissue, with coloured elements collaged from various bits of washi using chine-collé techniques.

It's a 'Walks like a Duck' ID really, but I'm not one for whipping a spider's bits out and slapping them under a microscope, just to prove a point. Besides that, they are more than capable of biting through human skin, not considered venomous as such, but would invoke a girly scream...

Braga, Portugal
Igreja do Pópulo is a neoclassical church located in Braga. The church started to be built by the end of the 16th century, under the order of Archbishop D. Frei Agostinho de Jesus, to invoke the Virgin Mary that is glorified in Santa Maria del Popolo church in Rome.
Its front suffered some changes in the 18th century to neoclassical style designed by Carlos Amarante, a Portuguese architect. Its interior is decorated with tiles showing a great pictorial value as well as its baroque altar. Close to the church, and belonging to the same architectural block there is an ancient monastery, which is now part of the Town Hall Services.
I'm starting to sound a little like Forrest Gump. You know the scene when he's on the bench waiting for the bus, chatting away;
"they invited me and the ping-pong team to visit the White House.
So I went, again.
And I met the President of the United States again."
"So I went to a parade and I saw the president, again.
Got threatened by the police again."
Yep. I decided that would take pictures of this years Oxi day parade so I went down to the seafront and snapped away, and managed to get pictures of the president of the Greek republic, Karolos Papoulias, the leader of the main opposition party, Giorgos Papandreou and other assorted political bigwigs.
At some point all the cameramen and photographers were shooed off to the side and I ended up amongst them. A little later I saw some guys arguing with a teenager who'd climbed up some scaffolding to get a better view. He clambered down but then jumped up onto another wall for some reason reluctant to move. Intrigued I decided to take some pictures and quickly I realised that people were hemming me in, discreetly trying to block my view of what was happening. Despite that I took a couple of shots and then returned to follow the parade.
Next thing I know two rough looking guys, wearing mirror shades start beckoning to me, telling me that I had to delete my photos. When I told them that I wasn't as I had every right to take pictures in a public place they turned nasty and said that as they were cops they could take me in for questioning and confiscate the camera.
Next they said something that scared the hell out of me. They said that they knew exactly who I was from what happened last year (see here for the full story of that little encounter) and that ,"I was known to the authorities". "You mean after I got the crap kicked out of me by the riot police?"
teacherdudebbq.blogspot.com/2007/09/full-story.html
I don't know why but they managed to push all my buttons and bring out stubborn streak in me. So I argued that I wasn't going to do anything till I saw some ID. Eventually they showed me it and demanded again that I delete the photos, which I did. Once again they invoked this mythical law that the no one is allowed to take photographs of the police on duty. No lawyer I've talked to or media professional has ever heard of such legislation.
To tell you the truth, I only brazoned it out them as I know they'd be loathed to make a scene in such a public place. Other photographers have not been so lucky in their dealings with the police. For example leading French photographer, Olivier Jobard, who was beaten and arrested by police in Patras this year when he refused to hand over his camera (see here for the full story).
www.rsf.org/article.php3?id_article=27770
I stuck around for another hour or so and then before the parade ended ducked into the crowd and got out of there as quickly as possible. People, especially foreigners, have a strange way of becoming very clumsy in the presence of the police. They trip and land on window boxes resulting in weeks of hospitalisation, fall off balconies in cafes or find themselves dead at the bottom of river beds.As you can imagine I wasn't about to get myself involved in a delicate legal debates with these guys.

This was the scene as a series of unprecedented rail blockades saw the wheels of Canada's economy screeching to a halt. But in the middle of it all, the Ontario Northland Railway stepped up to keep it all on track.
On the ninth day of the Wet'suwet'en First Nation rail blockade in Ontario - a day after CN announced it would "shut down its Eastern Canada network" - a handful of trains took the scenic route over the Ontario Northland Railway to reach their respective destinations of Toronto (southbound) and Northern Quebec (northbound). Here, on the morning of February 14th, 2020, detoured CN stack train no. 149 is seen curving through the town of Cobalt, Ontario.
Two years to the day after this photo was taken, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has invoked the Emergencies Act in an unprecedented effort to "quell the ongoing Freedom Convoy demonstrations and blockades" across Canada. The photographer, nor anyone else, could have imagined the global strife that would soon unravel following that fateful morning in Northern Ontario.
I visited Great Sand Dunes National Park for the first time, and what really impressed me about the park was the scenic variety in a relatively small area. As the sun rose and painted the landscape, the scenic features really began to stand out.
I'm not sure any of the photographers who were with me on the workshop took any shot like this. The instructor himself was slightly puzzled about what I was going for. As I gazed upon the scene in front of me, I was struck by the layers of landforms that comprised the park. The strips of sky, alpine peaks, forested mountains, and the sand dunes, which seem so foreign in this environment. While not a photograph that would invoke the admiration of a judge in a photo contest, it nailed what I was going for. The one improvement I wish I'd made was to wait a couple minutes for the swath of sunlight to make a wider layer of lit dunes. I was busy taking a panorama during that moment. I'll reshoot on a future visit, whenever I can work out the timing.
Takakkaw Falls is a majestic waterfall plunging 373 m from a steep rock cliff. During spring runoff it sounds like a jet aircraft taking off. The surrounding environment is a vibrant, healthy coniferous forest, with tall, dark green evergreen trees covering the slopes and flanking the river below the waterfall.
A simple, green metal pedestrian bridge spans the Yoho River, the wide, shallow, glacial river in the foreground. Two people are visible standing on the bridge; presumably admiring the waterfall. They are relatively small in the image, emphasizing the scale of the natural landscape.
The atmosphere is awe-inspiring, reflecting the raw power of nature and the beauty of the undisturbed wilderness. The mood is one of wonder; the vastness of the landscape invokes a feeling of insignificance yet appreciation for the natural beauty of the surroundings.
The Angolan Pavilion for the 56th Biennale di Venezia is titled “On Ways of Travelling,” yet the exhibition more accurately invokes some of the barriers to the freedom of movement that are experienced by many in Angola, and elsewhere in Africa – visas, economic hardship, borders and road traffic. Yet “travel,” in this context, is not only meant to signify physical movement; it also refers to the meeting of disparate worldviews, lifestyles and temporalities, as well as to states of dreaming, desire and longing for change. The subject is nowhere more relevant than the present context in La Biennale di Venezia, an essential destination for international art tourism and an early precedent for the phenomenon of the ‘global exhibition’ of contemporary art.
PLEASE, no multi invitations (none is better) in your comments. Thanks.
I like this one because of the family in front, smiles.
Sadly, the first One Pillar Pagoda was destroyed during the French War. The new Vietnamese government rebuilt the temple in 1955. It was originally constructed by Emperor Ly Thai Tong to commemorate the long awaited birth of an heir. He believed that the luck had been foretold in a dream about the Goddess of Mercy handing him a male child on a lotus flower. He then built the original small wooden pagoda to resemble a lotus blossom to pay tribute to his good fortune. Locals believe that if you pray here, it will invoke well-beings and prosperity.
Du col de Roccapina, sur la route nationale 196 qui longe le littoral entre Bonifacio et Sartène (Corse du Sud), se détache la saisissante silhouette d’un lion couché et couronné, qui semble surveiller la Méditerranée. La légende raconte qu’il s’agissait d’un puissant seigneur si craint de ses ennemis sarrasins qu’ils le surnommèrent le "lion", et qui, repoussé par une bergère dont il était épris, invoqua la Mort, qui le pétrifia… sous l'apparence d'un lion. D'où la citation : "Ton coeur est de pierre, lion de pierre tu seras !"
Roccapina est également un lieu chargé d’histoire. La côte majestueuse symbolisant l’extrême sud de la Corse est également le lieu de fréquentes tempêtes où les bateaux se retrouvent souvent en difficulté. Dans la nuit du 16 au 17 avril 1887, sous l'œil du lion, le Tasmania (paquebot à vapeur anglais) ayant quitté Bombay deux semaines plus tôt pour se rendre à Londres, alla s’éventrer sur le Rocher des Moines. Le navire avait en sa possession de nombreux présents d'une valeur inestimable dont de l'or, de l'ivoire, et de la joaillerie, trésors du maharajah de Jodhpur, cadeaux destinés à la reine britannique Victoria, devant célébrer son jubilé. Une tout autre légende raconterait qu'une partie de ce trésor aurait ensuite été retrouvée par un bandit, puis caché dans une grotte, dans le vaste maquis de Roccapina. Mais la plus grande partie du butin serait encore dispersée dans l'immensité de la mer Méditerranée…
The lion of Roccapina: halfway between Sartène and Bonifacio, between Legend and History
From the Col de Roccapina, on the national road 196 that runs along the coast between Bonifacio and Sartène (South Corsica), stands out the striking silhouette of a reclining and crowned lion, which seems to be watching the Mediterranean. Legend has it that he was a powerful lord so afraid of his Saracen enemies that they nicknamed him the "lion," and who, repulsed by a shepherdess he was in love with, invoked Death, which petrified him. in the guise of a lion. Hence the quote: "Your heart is of stone, you will be a stone lion!"
Roccapina is also a place steeped in history. The majestic coastline symbolizing the extreme south of Corsica is also the site of frequent storms where boats often find themselves in trouble. On the night of April 16-17, 1887, under the lion’s eye, the Tasmania (English steamer) having left Bombay two weeks earlier to go to London, went to tear itself apart on the Rock of the Monks. The ship had in its possession many gifts of inestimable value, including gold, ivory, and jewelry, treasures of the Maharajah of Jodhpur, gifts to the British Queen Victoria, to celebrate her jubilee. A very different legend would say that part of this treasure was later found by a bandit and then hidden in a cave in the vast maquis of Roccapina. But most of the loot would still be scattered in the vastness of the Mediterranean Sea…
Isolde speaking to Tristans spirit through art. The peacock feathers in her dark bouquet predict she will die of sorrow soon.
Spiritists around the 'fin the siècle' would use photography to try to capture the spirits they invoked during seances. Not always succesfully and manipulated pictures with fake ghosts were often used to prove that talking to spirits was real.
(lupus ad mea)
L738 of December 14th 2025 featured a blast from the past in form of three YN2 Dash 8s leading the way, all facing north elephant style. These are three of four YN2 Dash 8 locomotives currently cycling through the power pool of locals between Brownsand and Waycross, running daily anywhere between those yards as L737, L738, L740, and perhaps other symbols as applicable.
Shooting here reminded me of the last time I'd shot here, nine years ago when we'd followed a grain train off the CSX Brunswick branch. That train had a YN2 SD70MAC leading, at the time the best thing you could catch on CSX it seemed: flic.kr/p/PvrXxD. That November, a pair of YN2 Dash 8s wouldn't have been so special, a trio certainly cool, but comparatively a such lashup in 2025 is unheard of. This sure invokes some though if maybe we should be paying more mind to matched tri-sets of YN3 GEVOs, most cool things were once so common.
Compositionally Challenged Week 15 Film Noir for Photography
So here's a second attempt at some kind of Film Noir style. I've tried to invoke the feeling of looking through a door peephole, but what you're actually seeing is the inside of a lens... that tiny Xenon lens focuses so close, that the point of focus is inside the lens... hence it has to be stopped down A LOT in order to get anything in focus. That's the reason for the aweful image quality, which I liked for this challenge.
Shot with a Schneider Kreuznach "Xenon 16 mm F2" on a Canon EOS R5.

A dark plume fetch me from yon blasted yew,
Perched on whose top the Danish Raven croaks;
Aloft, the imperial Bird of Rome invokes
Departed ages, shedding where he flew
Loose fragments of wild wailing, that bestrew
The clouds and thrill the chambers of the rocks;
And into silence hush the timorous flocks,
That, calmly couching while the nightly dew
Moistened each fleece, beneath the twinkling stars
Slept amid that lone Camp on Hardknot’s height,
Whose Guardians bent the knee to Jove and Mars:
Or, near that mystic Round of Druid frame
Tardily sinking by its proper weight
Deep into patient Earth, from whose smooth breast it came!
With the weather like it is... the best way to beat the heat I've found is with a steady supply of popsicles and some good music. So what if my headphones have devil horns? That's not me invoking hell on earth! Nope!

If the sun refused to shine
I would still be loving you
When mountains crumble to the sea
There will still be you and me
Kind a woman, I give you my all
Kind a woman, nothing more
Little drops of rain, whisper of the pain
Tears of love's lost in the days gone by
My love is strong, with you there is no wrong
Together we shall go until we die, my, my, my
Inspiration's what you are to me
Inspiration, look 'n' see
And so, today my world it smiles
Your hand in mine, we walk the miles
Thanks to you, it will be done
For you to me are the only one
Alright, yeah
Happiness, no more be sad
Happiness, I'm glad
If the sun refused to shine
I would still be loving you
Mountains crumble to the sea
There will still be you and me

Un "cake" littéraire.

Copié intégralement du livret de présentation :
En introduisant le livre comme matériau à part entière, ce jardin examine les processus de transformation, entre nature, culture et savoir. Les murs, les bancs et les planchers en livres usagés structurent une suite d'espaces qui sont à la fois cadrés et dissous dans leur environnement. Le dessèchement et l'altération des livres s'organisent entre des planches de couleur, qui sont comme des séparateurs. Cette détérioration est stimulée et accentuée par la présence de variétés de champignons qui sont cultivés sur certaines éditions de livres. Le jardin devient alors une salle de lecture sensuelle et mythique.
By introducing the book as a material in the garden, Jardin de la Connaissance offers an evocative cultural frame to examine transformational processes inherent in nature. Invoking the mythic relation between knowledge and nature, integral to the concept of ‘paradise’, we invite the emotional involvement of the visitor by exposing these fragile and supposedly timeless cultural artefacts to the processes of decomposition. Walls, benches and floors form a series of rooms at once framing and dissolving into their environment. The withering and weathering books are organized between structural coloured plates—bookmarks—, while their deterioration is further stimulated and accentuated by varieties of mushrooms that are cultivated on selected editions. The garden becomes a sensual reading room; a library; an information platform; an invitation to a provocatively foreign realm of knowledge.
There are people still streaming to baths and enjoying a visit now without warming rooms and cold plunges. There is great sunshine an intense rain in the current climate that bathes the tourists in the remains of the Auxiliary Garrison. Outside of the strictly prescribed fort there would be settlements beyond the fort and the baths are out of the fort structure in part to limit and contain the fire hazard.
The bath house has older signs built into the ruins of the extant compartmental foundations and then there are newer attributions on the sign immediately above the sauna type bathing remains.
Thermae from the Greek Θέρμαι Thermai for hot springs and hot baths from the Greek adjective thermos for hot used to describe warm springs and also baths of warm water.
Thermae from Greek θερμός thermos “hot” and balneae from Greek βαλανεῖον balaneion, “bath” also “bathing-vessel” the Romans used their term thermae based on Greek origins.
Hardknott named after Harthr Knutr hard craggy hill that is Hard Knott fell.

O people, an example is presented, so listen to it. Indeed, those you invoke besides Allah will never create [as much as] a fly, even if they gathered together for that purpose. And if the fly should steal away from them a [tiny] thing, they could not recover it from him. Weak are the pursuer and pursued.

Drawing down the Moon (also known as drawing down the Goddess) is a central ritual in many contemporary Wiccan traditions. During the ritual, a coven's High Priestess enters a trance and requests that the Goddess or Triple Goddess, symbolized by the Moon, enter her body and speak through her. The High Priestess may be aided by the High Priest, who invokes the spirit of the Goddess. During her trance, the Goddess is supposed to speak through the High Priestess.

A large jenga-style structure which monkeys sit on or walk greets viewers as the walk into the gallery housing Stephanie Quayle’s installation. Some of her clay monkeys watch us from atop planks of wood, as if waiting our reaction – and subsequent reaction – to their plight. The jenga emits a palpable threat of instability, compounded by Quayle’s use of decaying joists from timber barns and old
wooden beams. As with the game of jenga, it appears the installation could collapse at any moment. Quayle invokes the instability inherent in jenga to highlight the precarious situation human hands have wrought upon wildlife as a result of deforestation and consequence loss of habitat.
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.
The Expiatory Church of the Sagrada Familia, known simply as the Sagrada Familia, is a Roman Catholic basilica in Barcelona, Spain, designed by architect Antoni Gaudí. Begun in 1882, it is still under construction (November 2016). It is Gaudí's masterpiece and the greatest exponent of Catalan modernist architecture.
The Sagrada Familia is a reflection of Gaudí's artistic plenitude: he worked on it for most of his professional career, but especially in his later years, where he reached the culmination of his naturalistic style, synthesizing all the solutions and styles he had tried up to that point. 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.
