Blue Hour Love Locks - Lake Chiemsee, Bavaria

 

Love Locks

The exact origin of the custom is unclear. The starting point in Europe is very likely Italy (Italian lucchetti dell’amore). It is believed that graduates of the San Giorgio Sanitary Academy in Florence are the originators of this custom. At the end of their apprenticeship, they fastened the padlocks on their lockers to a gate on the Ponte Vecchio. This was probably taken over by the lovers of Rome at the Milvian Bridge. Through the bestselling novel Drei Meter über dem Himmel (2005; Original: Tre metri sopra il cielo, 1992) and the sequel I stand on you (2007; Italian Ho voglia di te, 2006) by Federico Moccia as well as its film adaptation was the Popular topic. In this story, the two protagonists swear "eternal love", attach the lock to the central bridge lantern and throw the key into the Tiber.

 

The locks often contain inscriptions or engravings of the first names or initials of the lovers, sometimes with the date. After fastening the lock, the key is usually thrown into the bridged flowing water. At the Milvian Bridge this is done with the saying per semper ("forever").

 

And somehow this sight reminds me of the movie Titanic - you don't think so :-)

Blaue Stunde Liebesschlösser - Chiemsee, Bayern

 

Liebesschlösser

Die genaue Herkunft des Brauchs ist unklar. Ausgangspunkt in Europa ist sehr wahrscheinlich Italien (italienisch lucchetti dell’amore). Es wird vermutet, dass Absolventen der Sanitätsakademie San Giorgio in Florenz die Urheber dieser Sitte sind. Mit dem Ende ihrer Ausbildungszeit befestigten sie die Vorhängeschlösser ihrer Spinde an einem Gitter des Ponte Vecchio. Dies wurde wohl von den Verliebten Roms an der Milvischen Brücke übernommen. Durch den Bestseller-Roman Drei Meter über dem Himmel (2005; Original: Tre metri sopra il cielo, 1992) und die Fortsetzung Ich steh auf dich (2007; ital. Ho voglia di te, 2006) von Federico Moccia sowie deren Verfilmung wurde die Thematik populär. In dieser Geschichte schwören sich die beiden Protagonisten „ewige Liebe“, befestigen das Schloss an der zentralen Brückenlaterne und werfen den Schlüssel in den Tiber.

 

Die Schlösser enthalten oft eine Beschriftung oder Gravur der Vornamen oder Initialen der Verliebten, teilweise mit Datum. Nach dem Befestigen des Schlosses wird üblicherweise der Schlüssel in das überbrückte fließende Gewässer geworfen. An der Milvischen Brücke erfolgt dies mit dem Ausspruch per sempre („für immer“).

 

Und irgendwie erinnert mich dieser Anblick an den Kinofilm Titanic - findet Ihr nicht auch :-)

Wo ist Rose?

Sadness Is Dark

You can't even call it a color

It's the color of your eyes I crave

 

Regret Reeks

You can't even call it a scent

It's the smell of your skin I can't waive

 

Black and Blue in the face

Longing for you by my side

 

Red wine I easily embrace

Lusting for you by my side.

Christmas is not a date. It is a state of mind. Il Natale non è una data. È uno stato d’animo.

Life is definitely short for blossoms! The top bloom is fresh but the one below is only a day or two older and already the petals are curling as it starts to age. Both blooms are beautiful as they go through these phases. Celebrate the little things in life every day.

For Smile on Saturday. I hope this fits the theme. I love these wild carrot flowers. The light seems to rest on them so beautifully. This one is just about to burst into bloom.

Platycodon grandiflorus is a perennial plant which is commonly grown in mountains and fields. It is 40 to 100 centimeters high and has thick roots, and white juice comes out when the stem is cut. Leaves are 5 to 12 centimeters long, with narrow ends and teeth on the edges.

 

Flowers bloom purple or white in July and August, with one or several running upward at the end of the circle. The flower crown is divided into five branches in the shape of an open bell.

Old Oak: “We are far from the only trees here. But it is we, the oaks, who determine the life of this forest. If you ask one of the scientists, he will say that we are edificators. This means that if there is no us, then this forest will not exist. Everything will be overgrown with birches. There will be a completely different community, and for many who live here today, there will be no place in it.»

oh spirit take hold

be so bold as to break the ropes

that hold

me

to this mask

and undo the task

that they have placed on my face my hands and my heart

spirit take flight

that i might

that i could

that i should

put my hands on the sick

feed the hungry

and comfort the dying

with a full body contact

and let Your Spirit

protect me like a sauve

 

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder regarding Peziza repanda, commonly known as the Palomino cup or recurved cup, is a species of fungus in the genus Peziza, family Pezizaceae.

 

I found this on a walk through a Bluebell wood, growing on a very large decaying Beech tree along with Lycogala terretre - plasmodium (slime mould) and Glistening ink caps.

 

A first for me too (yay!) as I've never seen this variety of cup fungus before, it's a little gem, a beauty! :)

Happy Smile on Saturday!

 

And ... Happy ScATsURDAY!

Workers in our neighbor's yard are tearing down an old garage. It is close to the property line, as is the workshop where Gracie Jo's "apartment" is, so the loud klonk sounds of debris tossed into a metal dumpster were just a few yards away. Sally saw her retreat across the street, to where she used to live, right after breakfast. The work came to a halt late morning, though, and the big trucks left. Gracie Jo appeared soon thereafter.

 

(This shot is "straight out of camera" except for a slight straightening. The reason I mention this is that it's so impossibly green! )

Winter here in West Wales is usually colour-free in the garden until the January/February bulbs start to appear. This year, despite the hard frosts and chilly days, some roses are still budding and blooming, a welcome and somewhat unexpected burst of colour in the flower borders and in mid-December!

So this is spring in Ohio. After a dearth of snow for most of winter, Friday night brought a widespread 3-6 inches of snow across northern Ohio. Helped by Lake Huron and Erie, the Bellevue area got douched with an additional 6 inches, totaling over a foot of snow. In a winter wonderland, the AC/DC conversion unit sits tied down at Kenny Rd in Bellevue, OH on an Edon, OH bound empty grain train #51Z.

This is called Yarn Bombing... and at the Stony Brook Museum, there are many trees that are covered in this colorful and very time consuming art form...

If you have never heard of this before, I thought I'd share... if you Google Yarn Bombing, you will see this is done all over the world!!

Under the water

It's cold and it's grey

My torrid autumn

Another season decays

Open up the hollow

And my walls come down

I'll tell you it's a problem

Just when no one's around

 

But then

I know what's wrong

God you complicated everything

I know you're gone, gone, gone

This is where I will draw my line

I will draw my line

 

Burning my cathedrals

'Cause I don't pray anymore

Look at all these people

These tragic little people

They're smiling and they don't know what for

 

But then

I know what's wrong

God you complicated everything

I know you're gone, gone, gone

This is where I will blur my line

I will blow my line

 

Our houses are haunted

Torn and deserted

They're made of my secrets and shame

Baby I want it

But I know I'm not worth it

I can't even sell you my name

 

But then

I know you're wrong

God, you took it all away from me

I know you're gone, gone, gone

This is where I will cross my line

I am crossing my line

I often stare at the flies and other insects that I come across, so I'm not surprised when I find them staring at me. It's only fair.... : )

 

Hope everyone has a fantastic Fly Day and a peaceful and enjoyable weekend!

For those in the USA that are starting their 4th of July celebrations early, be safe, and have fun! :)

HFDF!

This is Gracie Jo, the semi-feral cat we are trying to coax indoors. Today's forecast was for a "wintry mix", lots of wind, etc. At lunch time, Gracie Jo ran pretty quickly to the back door (before I could take her food up to her heated area in the workshop), so it seemed like a good time to try whisking her inside. I got her into the laundry room without her biting or scratching me. Just about that time the wind picked up and the rain turned to sleet & I think Gracie Jo must have been okay with being inside for a little while.

Melancholy Melody

Love this song-makes me daydream

"Friendship is a sheltering tree.

The language of friendship is not words but meanings.

Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing.

There is a time for silence and a time to let go.

Friendship isn't a big thing it's a million little things.

Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born."

 

This is a dedication to Anto and Susy, they know why!

May God bless you both💕 my dear friends!

 

My dear friends, we are at Explore! I am very grateful about this.

On Monday the 4th of October # 42, wow!

 

"Vriendschap is een beschutte boom.

De taal van vriendschap zijn geen woorden maar betekenissen.

Soms betekent een vriend zijn dat je de kunst van timing onder de knie moet krijgen.

Er is een tijd van stilte en een tijd van loslaten.

Vriendschap is niet iets groots, het zijn een miljoen kleine dingen.

Elke vriend vertegenwoordigt een wereld in ons, een wereld die mogelijk pas wordt geboren als ze aankomen, en alleen door deze ontmoeting wordt een nieuwe wereld geboren."

   

 

.... between "I like you" and "I love you? "

Beautifully answered by Buddha :

When you like a flower, you just pluck it.

But when you love a flower, you water it daily.

One who understand this, understands life.

LIFE IS....

by Mother Theresa

 

Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.

Life is beauty, admire it.

Life is a dream, realize it.

Life is a challenge, meet it.

Life is a duty, complete it.

Life is a game, play it.

Life is a promise, fulfill it.

Life is sorrow, overcome it.

Life is a song, sing it.

Life is a struggle, accept it.

Life is a tragedy, confront it.

Life is an adventure, dare it.

Life is luck, make it.

Life is too precious, do not destroy it.

Life is life, fight for it.

 

==============================

I just have to upload and share what is available. From my archive. Hope you all dig it.

I have a very poor memory when it comes to naming flowers. My apology!!!

From our garden.

===========================================================

All the best to everyone.

Thank you for your understanding, support and comments. Very much appreciated...

If it's mine, it is mine.

If it's yours, it is mine.

If I like it, it is mine.

If I can take it from you, it is mine.

If I am playing with something, ALL of the pieces are mine.

If I think it is mine, it is mine.

If I saw it first, it is mine.

If I had it then put it down, it is still mine.

If you had it then put it down, it is now mine.

If it looks like the one I have at home, it is mine.

If it is broken, it is yours.
