"Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together. All things connect."
Chief Seattle
Many years ago I thought nothing of purchasing anything made of plastic. Looking at this image of plastic straws, I am reminded that it is up to each and every one of us to make significant changes to our lives if we care about our Earth and those who will live long after we have left this planet.
In my mind, this image has gone from one of captured beauty to one as a reminder that I need to be aware of my part in protecting Mother Earth.
Il Polesine si identifica con la provincia di Rovigo, zona situata tra il basso corso dei fiumi Adige e Po, ai quali la sua storia è legata in modo indissolubile.
Il Polesine è infatti terra d’acque, di paesaggi sognanti e di atmosfere infinite, straordinario palcoscenico naturale, dove l’acqua si muove maestosa, tra golene, isole sabbiose, e il Po, con il suo delta, arriva placido al mare attraverso un labirinto di acque e canneti, paradiso per una fauna variegata.

Imagination is more important than knowledge because knowledge is limited whereas imagination encompasses the whole world.
After spending time in Ireland's countryside, we headed to Dublin to return our rental car. It was exciting to be in this vibrant city wiith so much historical charm and lots of great things to see & do!
This is the Long Room, with it's oak ceiling and two levels of bookshelves holding some of Ireland's most ancient and valuable volumes in the oldest part of the Library at Trinity College and still in constant use... since 1732.
No, not the current one. “After the second wave of the Black Death swept through Europe in the 17th century, the survivors burned the bodies, thanked god, and built monumental tributes to their deliverance.” This particular column was erected in Vienna, Austria. “Vienna in 1679 was the perfect place for an epidemic outbreak. The combination of a densely packed population, poor sanitary conditions, and travelers arriving regularly in the city from parts unknown makes the arrival of the plague somewhat unsurprising, but the toll was tremendous. As many as 75,000 people perished and were burned in plague pits in the outskirts of the city, while the imperial family skipped town.
When it was all over, Emperor Leopold I rolled back into town, took some money from the royal coffers and had this monumental celebration of life over death erected - including a not terribly subtle effigy of His Imperial Highness praying for the deliverance of the city.” This plague column was one of several that I saw, but was certainly the grandest and most lavish one. Did we really think another plague would never come? Even with all the medical knowledge and science of today, it seems that we may have taken a step back in time by ignoring the information and lessons of history….
A lighthouse is a guidance for real, like in a building
For some reason lighthouses have always fascinated me
A guidance in your life is your intuition
As hard as it can be
As easy as it can be
It's always there
Whispering
We tend to listen more to our ego tho
Our ego always have the arguments, the solutions
Why to do things
How to do things
Definitely how and why not to do things
It's often the easy way-solutions or the more fun stuff to do
Your ego keeps on building up arguments why it's smart to follow the egos way
Be aware when you repeatedly think the same arguments over and over again
It's your ego talking, it never whispers
It's cool to know tho, now you can choose to listen if you want, either it's the ego or the intuition
I love knowing
Knowledge rules
I just have to add this little music for you, I love Pink Floyd, it totally rules :D
I haven't heard this one before.
Talking to a loved one today, while this one was playing in the background, totally made this music a lovely piece of art the rest of my day.

Stairway to knowledge. Of course, we're on the third floor. 8^) Rob and Melani Walton Center for Planetary Health.
We took an evening visit to Bow Lake in the hope of getting a nice sunset. Sadly it wasn't to be but I had a chance to play with long exposures for the first time and I like the effect it creates. My thanks to Justin Minns - www.flickr.com/photos/justinminns/ our tutor for the course for his help, guidance and enthusiasm to impart knowledge.
Constructive criticism is always welcome.
A duo tone take on the Sir Duncan Rice Library in Aberdeen City. Looking down from the 7th floor through the central atrium to ground level. This stunning architecture was designed by Danish Architects.
I had another practice attempt at capturing a bird in flight when this Osprey flew overhead. My main goal here was to try to focus on the eye and get it sharp. There wasn’t much light to work with but I managed to capture just enough to get some colour showing in his eye. Some photographer said you need LUCK when capturing these moments. ( Labouring Under Correct Knowledge). I shall continue to labour on! Happy Wing Wednesday!

Forsythia is pure joy.
There is not an ounce,
not a glimmer of sadness or
even knowledge in forsythia.
Pure, undiluted, untouched joy.

A geological hammer, in memory of Mary Anning (1799-1847) from Lyme Regis/Dorset, fossil collector and lay palaeontologist and one of the key figures in the discovery of dinosaurs. She was not an "Anglican gentleman", not part of the establishment, but a dissenter and a woman and as such not allowed to join the Geological Society of London. "The world has used me so unkindly", she wrote. Mitakon Speedmaster manual lens at F 0.95; reflector used; edited in Fujifilm's raw converter and refined in Luminar.

Forboding, expectant? or just a beautiful soul warmed by the light...this is one of those photoshop as therapy things...maybe I should just take it down...? I'm feeling a little intense these days...
This is the First Nations University of Canada building on the University of Regina campus in Regina, Saskatchewan. Designed by Canadian architect Douglas Cardinal; completed in 2003.
Cardinal also designed the Canadian Museum of History in Gatineau, Quebec and the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian in Washington, D.C.

Voi ch'ascoltate in rime sparse il suono
di quei sospiri ond'io nudriva 'l core
in sul mio primo giovenile errore
quand'era in parte altr'uom da quel ch'i' sono,
del vario stile in ch'io piango et ragiono
fra le vane speranze e 'l van dolore,
ove sia chi per prova intenda amore,
spero trovar pietà, nonché perdono.
Ma ben veggio or sí come al popol tutto
favola fui gran tempo, onde sovente
di me mesdesmo meco mi vergogno;
et del mio vaneggiar vergogna è 'l frutto,
e 'l pentersi, e 'l conoscer chiaramente
che quanto piace al mondo è breve sogno
from il canzoniere Francesco Petrarch.

Era bellissima, lei, e guardava sempre il mare. Per poter vedere quegli occhi, lui, il mare lo tenne sempre alle spalle. E non lo vide mai.
She was beautiful, her, and always looked at the sea. In order to see those eyes, he, the sea always kept behind. And he never saw him.

“Then suddenly comes the awakening to a new level of experience. The soul one day begins to realize, in a manner completely unexpected and surprising, that in this darkness it has found the living God. One’s being is overwhelmed with the sense that He is there and that His love is surrounding and absorbing the soul on all sides. In fact, He has been there all the time—but He was utterly unknown. Now He is recognized. At that instant, there is no other important reality but God, infinite Love. Nothing else matters. The darkness remains as dark as ever and yet, somehow, it seems to have become brighter than noonday. The soul has entered a new world, a world of rich experience that transcends the level of all other knowledge and all other love. From then on one’s whole life is transformed. Although externally sufferings and difficulties and labor may be multiplied, the soul’s interior life has become completely simple. It consists of one thought, one preoccupation, one love: GOD ALONE.”
- Thomas Merton from The Inner Experience
To my knowledge the Roseate Spoonbills in Florida are still scattered around and haven’t yet begun their rookery for this season’s nesting. One morning at Wakodahatchee Wetlands a couple hung around after sunrise and acted like they were looking for a nesting site. They do this every year in an effort to purposedly raise our hopes, only to dash them when they disappear to nest somewhere else. Well, I’m not falling for it this year!
