Song
the city lies under a blanket of snow. After a gale from the north, autumn is definitively over.../ Uppsala, staden har fått gott om snö, efter många fina höstdagar, nu är det vinter som gäller.../ Uppsala, una borrasca gélida del norte trajo de golpe el invierno, se acabó definitivamente el otoño...(DSC_3508-2)
Located on the Nete river, Lier was settled in the 8th century and developed around the chapel of St. Peter. Lier became an important textile centre in the 14th century. It was besieged and taken by the Spanish in 1582, by the Dutch in 1595, and by the English in 1706 during the War of the Spanish Succession.
Lier is a French commune that was granted city rites in 1212. It is located in the Flanders region of Northern Belgium.

It was besieged and taken by the Spanish in 1582, by the Dutch in 1595, and by the English in 1706 during the War of the Spanish Succession. Belgian nationalists resisted a Dutch attack in 1830. Belgium has seen its fair share of war and occupation.
Destruction of Lier occurred as a result of bombing in Antwerp in 1914; however, many of the medieval structures survived including, the Gothic belfry, St. Gommarus’ Church and the béguinage.
Lying off the Cornish Coast on the south west of England is Saint Michaels Mount. Indeed every once in a while I do like to get out of Scotland to visit other places.

Brunate overlooks Como, which lies on the shore of Lake Como some 500 metres below. For a short time in the late 12th century Brunate was an independent commune, but in 1240 it reverted to the suzerainty of Como. Como and Brunate are linked by a steep, narrow, winding road, and by the Como to Brunate funicular. Alessandro Volta lived in Brunate for a short period and the Bulgarian poet Pencho Slaveykov died in the town on 10 June 1912.
Monochrome image of a young woman walking the opposite way to a political slogan, about government lies, daubed on an abandoned wall. At a time when the Russian government are spreading misinformation about the war in Ukraine I hope this will be a powerful image.
Carlingford Castle
Carlingford lies in the shade of Slieve Foye, a mountain that in legend takes its form from the body of the sleeping giant Finn MacCumhaill. The castle dominates the town and overlooks the lough harbour. It was a vital point of defence for the area for centuries.
Carlingford Castle was built around 1190, most likely by the Norman baron Hugh de Lacy. By this time Hugh’s family had grown powerful enough to make King John of England uneasy. John forced them into rebellion and seized their property in 1210. He reputedly stayed in his new castle himself. It is still known as King John’s Castle.
The Jacobites fired on the castle in 1689; William of Orange is said to have accommodated his wounded soldiers there following the Battle of the Boyne.
Carlingford Lough Heritage Trust provides excellent guided tours of this historic Castle from March to October.

I finally see what
You knew was inside me
All along
That behind this soft exterior
Lies a warrior
Lies a warrior
You take me by the hand
I'm sure of who I am
Teach me how to fight
I'll show you how to win
You're my mortal flaw
And I'm your fatal sin
Let me feel the sting
The pain
The burn
Under my skin
Snails hopefully! This female Snail Kite was hovering for just a moment to precisely locate her next snack just below the water's surface.

What lies beneath? Facets of our being. Overwhelming detail, ideas and unknown fragments that shape patterns in our lives. They are all finely meshed together forming the whole being. Exploding with color. Both with form and without. Reflecting the whole from within.

In 'No-Man's-Land',
the wheels run differently than usual in the world.
Who gets lost here - or who seeks the most extreme adventure
will find things he would never have expected!
[... this is the 'value-free' formulation for this particular experience!]
Dans «No Man's Land»,
les roues ne fonctionnent pas comme d'habitude dans le monde.
Qui se perd ici - ou qui recherche l'aventure la plus extrême
va trouver des choses qu'il n'aurait jamais attendues!
[... c'est la formulation «sans valeur» pour cette expérience particulière!]
In 'No-Man's-Land' laufen die Räder anders als sonst auf der Welt.
Wer sich hierher verirrt - oder das extremste Abenteuer sucht
wird Dinge finden, die er sicher nie erwartet hätte!
[... dies ist die 'wertfreie' Formulierung für diese
besondere Erfahrung!]
The icy waters of the Sound were slowly receding, softly singing a lullaby as it withdrew, "Return to your warm bed and rest your weary head. Only treachery lies ahead, one false move and you will be dead". I replied, "Thank you Winter waters for your song of concern. I will heed your wisdom". I slipped on my cleats and continued past the rocks still covered in moss and mud.
