Faro di punta Palascia_Otranto.

La fascia sfuocata a centro fotogramma è il nubifragio che poco dopo si è abbattuto sulla costa . Giusto il tempo di correre in auto.

 

« I pescatori del tratto di mare tra la Torre del Serpe e la Palascìa raccontano che in certe giornate, quando le nuvole in cielo sono gonfie di pioggia e il sole le illumina come fossero vele, sulla superficie dell'acqua si può scorgere un brillio: i riflessi dorati di qualcosa di simile a una tromba »

  

La Punta Palascìa, comunemente Capo d'Otranto, è il punto più orientale d'Italia.

Punta Palascìa, commonly Capo d'Otranto, is the easternmost point of Italy.

We are living in an era where the culture and values ​​are being abandoned in the past generation.

Knowledge without love inflates the ego and deceives the mind. It can lead to intellectual snobbery, an attitude of mockery and making fun of other’s views, a spirit of contempt for those with lesser knowledge, and a demeaning way of dealing with people who disagree. - Alexander Strauch

Il Trinity College (irlandese: Coláiste na Tríonóide), è l'unico collegio costituente dell'Università di Dublino, un'università di ricerca a Dublino, Irlanda. La regina Elisabetta I fondò il college nel 1592. L'università ha formato molti dei poeti, drammaturghi e autori irlandesi di maggior successo, tra cui Oscar Wilde e Bram Stoker. La Sala Lunga è la camera principale lunga 65 metri della Biblioteca Vecchia, la Sala Lunga, fu costruita tra il 1712 e il 1732 e ospita 200.000 dei libri più antichi della Biblioteca. Inizialmente, la Sala Lunga aveva un soffitto piatto, scaffali per i libri solo al piano inferiore e una galleria aperta. Nel 1850 la stanza dovette essere ampliata man mano che gli scaffali furono riempiti perché alla Biblioteca era stato concesso il permesso di ottenere una copia gratuita di ogni libro che era stato pubblicato in Irlanda e Gran Bretagna. Nel 1860, il tetto della Sala Lunga fu rialzato per ospitare una galleria superiore. La Sala Lunga è fiancheggiata da busti di marmo.

 

Trinity College (Irish: Coláiste na Tríonóide), is the sole constituent college of the University of Dublin, a research university in Dublin, Ireland. Queen Elizabeth I founded the college in 1592. The university has educated many of Ireland's most successful poets, playwrights and authors, including Oscar Wilde and Bram Stoker. The Long Room is the 65-metre-long main chamber of the Old Library, the Long Room, was built between 1712 and 1732 and houses 200,000 of the Library's oldest books. Initially, The Long Room had a flat ceiling, shelving for books only on the lower level, and an open gallery. By the 1850s the room had to be expanded as the shelves were filled due to the fact that the Library had been given permission to obtain a free copy of every book that had been published in Ireland and Britain. In 1860, The Long Room's roof was raised to accommodate an upper gallery. The Long Room is lined with marble busts.

CHUVAS E RAIOS...

- Sempre tivemos o desejo de conseguir capturar em imagens um raio. Mas não é fácil e não possuímos o saber de técnicas mais amplas que permitam esta proeza com uma captura fantástica, inclusive não procuramos aprender até mesmo por não possuirmos equipamentos que nos permitiriam realizar uma captura mais profissional. No entanto, nada disto nos impede de efetuar algumas tentativas. E este dia foi propício e conseguimos 3 momentos (imagens); enfim, eis nosso singelo trabalho e tentativas neste sentido.

 

RAIN AND LIGHTNING...

- We always had the desire to be able to capture lightning in images. But it's not easy and we don't have the knowledge of broader techniques that allow this feat with a fantastic capture, we don't even try to learn even because we don't have equipment that would allow us to make a more professional capture. However, none of this prevents us from making some attempts. And this day was favorable and we got 3 moments (images); finally, here is our simple work and attempts in this direction.

I was amazed by the ceiling in this room, which symbolized for me the Tree of Knowledge at the Gottesman Research Library and Learning Center of the Museum of Natural History in New York. It was designed by Studio Gang, the international and urban practice design firm led by Jeanne Gang, and was reopened in 2023.

“The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination.”

 

< Albert Einstein >

Just over five centuries ago, Da Vinci spent 5 years waiting for Mona Lisa. And it was great, because until today Mona enchants us with her enigmatic smile, her charm, elegance and nobility of character.

But Leonardo had to wait much longer before Mona Harris appeared. And he admits, it was worth it. A woman of principles and knowledge transformed into wisdom, able of uniting a people disunited since the American Civil War. We live on a wild little planet. It's time to heal our wounds. It's time to look to a future for everyone. Of all races. Of all religions. From all social classes. Ignorance makes wars. Uniting people is an Art. The true Art of Life.

Street knowledge is always helpful.

Even without any knowledge of the Dutch language you can guess what "Brandweer" means. Mark how the iron capitals are beautifully crafted in a classic font, perhaps art deco style.

 

Excellent L&P to add to the Lines and Planes series.

It's about surprising compositions in the everyday, a special view of buildings, interiors ... lines made abstract.

Como curiosidad decir que en estos terrenos existió un jardín zoológico de nombre Casa de Fieras, inaugurado en 1.774 y clausurado en 1.972. Los animales salvajes estaban en jaulas en penosas condiciones de salubridad, recordando aun en la década de los 60 el fuerte olor que despedían.

 

As a curiosity, there used to be a botanical jarden in these grounds called Casa de Fieras (House of wild Beats,) inaugurated in 1774 and closed in 1972. The wild animals were locked up in cages in very poor sanitary conditions, and even in the sixties during a visit I can still remender the strong smell they gave off.

 

The Most Confidential Knowledge

 

‚If any pure-hearted devotee offers Me a leaf, a flower, fruit or water with love and devotion, i will surely accept that gift.

The preparation may be delicious or not, but if it is offered with love and a feeling that it is very delicious, it becomes most delicious to Me. At that time, I give up all other thoughts and relish it. Even if such a fruit or flower has no taste or fragrance, I still accept it, being captivated by My devotee’s prema.‘

 

Bhagavan is now explaining the quality of that worship: it is easy to perform. When an easily attainable object, such as a leaf, flower, fruit or water, is offered to Bhagavan with devotion, then He accepts it in an appropriate manner, even though He is endowed with unlimited opulence and is perfectly satisfied. He becomes hungry and thirsty because of His devotee’s love for Him and, absorbed in that mood of devotion, He eats the offering out of prema.

  

Square net fishing in Phatthalung, Thailand, is a traditional method practiced in the Thale Noi wetlands. Fishermen use bamboo platforms with suspended square nets operated by a pulley and counterweight system. The nets are lowered into the water to trap fish as they swim by, relying on the fishermen’s knowledge of tides and fish behavior. The catch is collected using smaller scoop nets. This sustainable method allows smaller fish to escape, preserving ecosystems. Fishing often occurs in the early morning or evening and reflects generations of cultural tradition. The bamboo structures, especially at sunrise, have become iconic, attracting tourists and photographers. Square net fishing symbolizes the harmonious connection between people and nature, blending livelihood and heritage in this serene region.

 

Funny story. I needed to fly my drone amongst the mangrove roots to get this panorama capture. Elated after the final frame was shot I mistakenly flew straight up into a guide wire and crashed the drone into the river. Just 5m offshore, I quickly stripped down and dove into the water to recover the drone. Down about 4m it was cold and pitch black with no sign of the bottom. Failure. The hotel was able to find me a salvage diver who was able to recover the drone a week later using the last recorded GPS coordinates. I received the corroded drone and more importantly the still functioning micro SD card a couple of weeks after my return from the trip. Elation again upon successful import, and panorama stitch.

The frigate (Q-2) ARA Libertad, built in the Rio Santiago Shipyard, is a sailing vessel with double topsails (five yards per pole that can be braced up to 45°) and three crossed masts (ratchet, major and mizzen), belonging to the Argentine Navy. The mission of the "Libertad" Frigate is to complete the professional training of the midshipmen of the Argentine Navy, contributing to the increase of their maritime knowledge and integrating them to life at sea. Likewise, it contributes to the foreign policy by representing the Argentine Republic in the ports where it comes to, where it disseminates the geographical, cultural and productive reality of its country. On the other hand, it fosters international naval relations, strengthening professional ties and friendship with the armies of other countries. In more than thirty-five instructional trips he has made, he visited 58 countries and more than 400 foreign ports.

 

Since its delivery, the frigate has traveled more than 800,000 nautical miles around the world and outside of its station has spent the equivalent of 17 years at sea. Around 11,000 Argentine sailors and friendly countries have passed through its covers and have been formed.

Another trip to Tamala Park Conservation area. This is a coastal sand dune community in a suburban beach setting. It is rare to see anyone in this area and it is very peaceful and very therapeutic. This time when I was there I met three young people doing a revegetation project to reduce the wind erosion. They were planting lots of native coastal plants. I took to the lady in charge for a while. She was delightful and her passion for coastal plants and knowledge of their biology was refreshing. AND she shared my love for coastal spinifex plants.

"Knowledge is an achievement sublime.

A learning experience, one day at a time.

Knowledge is power...even if we

choose not to use it, imperatively.

From the day we are born,

we are blessed with the right

to study our world, to give our minds flight.

To hunger for more, to expand our potential.

Knowledge is something truly essential.

Answers to questions the mind can impart,

nurtures the hunger for knowledge, to start

the process of learning, the beginning of growth,

a personal quest and a personal oath,

to become the very best one can be.

Yes, that is the road I have chosen for me!

It's all up to us...that desire to learn.

An impression within our hearts, it should burn,

and daily, the blessings, upon us will shower.

Always hold to the truth,

that...Knowledge Is Power!"
