Kanchenjunga in the Himalayan range, is the third highest mountain in the world (after Mount Everest and K2), with an elevation of 8,586 metres (28,169 ft.). Kanchenjunga translated means “The Five Treasures of Snows”, as it contains five peaks, four of them over 8,450 metres. The treasures represent the five repositories of God, which are gold, silver, gems, grain, and holy books. Kanchenjunga is called Sewalungma in the local Limbu language, translates as ‘Mountain that we offer Greetings to’. Kanchenjunga or Sewalungma is considered sacred in the Kirant religion.
What's the trouble-shooter for the morning so maligned
the order of upgrade is also a recipe for rewind
playing-back the same feelings of discontent
that are given by our beautiful society's torment
a commercial need for greed overrides the better judgement
of frugal kitchens and minimalist lifestyle's arrangement
this pattern of life raises the bar for pressured syllabus
swerving in and out of dreams of conscientious incubus;
that terror of waking fear preserved with an unwavering tear,
quavering the very limbus touch of palms on the face of a forbidden frontier
the looking glass that maps our progress with unfaithful representation
that draws a line under the very ages of mishapprehensive bifurcation
our emotions fall like London Bridge down miscible memory lanes
upon which we've never (under)stood and never will those pains
away, further and further, until they are truly missed
for now the 'charm' of modern contiguous living will have to subsist
as our payback awaits it's download as we construe offline feelings
those helpless disconnected grieving's contrive in hapless reelings
making themselves known through failures of science
the unwritten law of need is the contention of appliance
our home consul of power, our fantasy, our plaything
what tenure is this if our every new move outdates the real thing?
it becomes the incapacity of the soul,
for the lust of vitrailled windows looses sight of a deeper inner vision to extol
we gave peace a chance but chose war instead...don't fight, it's true!
we forgave sinners but sinned in it's wake...don't lie, it's true!
we comforted the sick then injected ourselves...don't do it, it'll be too late!
we gave generously then stole virtuously...don't cry, it's too late!
we volunteered our help then stowed off...don't hide, CCTV captured it!
we did our bit then spat it out...don't turn away, for your heart will recapture it!

The Tibetan script is an abugida of Indic origin used to write certain Tibetic languages, including Tibetan, Dzongkha, Sikkimese, Ladakhi, Jirel and sometimes Balti. It has also been used for some non-Tibetic languages in close cultural contact with Tibet, such as Thakali.[3] The printed form is called uchen script while the hand-written cursive form used in everyday writing is called umê script.
The script is closely linked to a broad ethnic Tibetan identity, spanning across areas in India, Nepal, Bhutan and Tibet.[4] The Tibetan script is of Indic origin and it is ancestral to the Limbu script, the Lepcha script[5] and the multilingual ʼPhags-pa script.

This modest photograph contains three active regions with important spots that have configured the solar view during these days passing through its surface. As a curious fact, you can see luminous bridges in almost all the main spots. The spot on the right above (active region 3553) has two light bridges. Furthermore, towards the limbus the faculae are clearly visible, which can be seen as bright lines following an irregular geometry. The word facula comes from Latin and means 'small flame' and, currently, it is known that they are closely related to spots, because when a compact facular region is observed it is an indication that there will soon be a spot or that it has just been diluted .
Also, in this image you can see the Wilson effect, which shows that by mere perspective, towards the limb, the concentric geometry of the spot is lost. The width of the spot remains constant in a line parallel to the limbus but shortens perpendicularly.
This image is the result of stacking the 50 best frames of a video, captured in white light with my Maksutov-Cassegrain "Explore Scientific" 127 telescope, f/15, with Meade 575 solar filter, Player One Neptune-M camera and Player filter One IR685.

The creation of the Tibetan alphabet is attributed to Thonmi Sambhota of the mid-7th century. Tradition holds that Thonmi Sambhota, a minister of Songtsen Gampo (569-649), was sent to India to study the art of writing, and upon his return introduced the alphabet. The form of the letters is based on an Indic alphabet of that period.

On the 4th day of our 20-day trek to the north and south sides of Kangchenjunga we left our camp at Phonphe Danda (1,865 m, 6,119 ft.), high above the true right side of the Kabeli Khola (Kabeli River) and descended 10 km (6.2 mi.) northeastward, along an undulating trail to Yamphudin (1,695 m, 5,561 ft.) on the true right bank of the river. The Limbu are a Nepalese ethnic group living in the eastern midlands between the lowland Terai and the main Himalaya Range. I photographed this Limbu home at an elevation of 1,785 m (5,856 ft.), 3.1 km (1.9 mi.) from Phonphe Danda.

Gaunt in gloom,
The pale stars their torches,
Enshrouded, wave.
Ghostfires from heaven's far verges faint illume,
Arches on soaring arches,
Night's sindark nave.
Seraphim,
The lost hosts awaken
To service till
In moonless gloom each lapses muted, dim,
Raised when she has and shaken
Her thurible.
And long and loud,
To night's nave upsoaring,
A starknell tolls
As the bleak incense surges, cloud on cloud,
Voidward from the adoring
Waste of souls.

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free.
Blackbird fly blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.
Blackbird fly blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly

You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

Cusco, often spelled Cuzco, is a city in southeastern Peru, near the Urubamba Valley of the Andes mountain range. It is the capital of the Cusco Region and of the Cusco Province.
Peru is a country in western South America. It is bordered in the north by Ecuador and Colombia, in the east by Brazil, in the southeast by Bolivia, in the south by Chile, and in the west by the Pacific Ocean.
Peru is a magical destination, abundant with ancient ruins dating back to the Incas.
Peru is the third largest country in South America, after Brazil and Argentina.
The shattered water made a misty din.
Great waves looked over others coming in,
And thought of doing something to the shore
That water never did to land before.
The clouds were low and hairy in the skies,
Like locks blown forward in the gleam of eyes.
You could not tell, and yet it looked as if
The shore was lucky in being backed by cliff,
The cliff in being backed by continent;
It looked as if a night of dark intent
Was coming, and not only a night, an age.
Someone had better be prepared for rage.
There would be more than ocean-water broken
Before God's last Put out the light was spoken.

Spend all your time waiting for that second chance. For a break that will make it okay there's always some reason to feel not good enough and it's hard at the end of the day. I need some distraction. Oh beautiful release memories seek from my veins and may be empty oh weightless and maybe I will find some peace tonight in the arms of the angel fly away from here from this star cold hotel room and the endlessness that you feel you are pulled from the racket of your silent reverie your in the arms of the angel may you find some comfort here . So tired of the straight line and every where you turn and there's vultures and theives at your back the storm keeps on twisting keep on building the lies that you make up for all that you lack it don't make no difference you escape them one last time it is easier to believe then this sweet madness oh there's glory or sadness that brings me to my knees in the arms of the angel fly away from here from this star cold hotel room and the endlessness that you feel you are pulled from the racket of your silent reverie your in the arms of the angel may you find some comfort here.You in the arms of the angel may you find some comfort here.

Leapin and hoppin on a moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow
And if I ever lose my hands, lose my plough, lose my land,
Oh if I ever lose my hands, oh if.... I wont have to work no more.
And if I ever lose my eyes, if my colours all run dry,
Yes if I ever lose my eyes, oh if.... I wont have to cry no more.
And if I ever lose my legs, I wont moan, and I wont beg,
Yes if I ever lose my legs, oh if.... I wont have to walk no more.
And if I ever lose my mouth, all my teeth, north and south,

Un atardecer anticipa la noche oscura. Es como si en su belleza de colores finalizara una jornada bella, llena de emociones y de logros, o de penas olvidables... Pero definitivamente, la belleza que nos rodea es interpretada para bien o para mal de acuerdo al estado de ánimo del observador...
Para mi tuvo un significado especialmente triste... Fue como despedir 10 años de haber dado todo, de aciertos y errores, de crear, de enseñar y compartir emociones, vivencias, éxitos y fracasos... Fue una etapa de mi vida que llevaré clavada en mis afectos...
Por eso digo "triste". Porque no es fácil mirar atrás sabiendo que dejas 10 años, amigos, compañeros, gente buena y otra no tanto...
Pero tomo este triste atardecer con un poco de esperanza hacia adelante, satisfecho por haberme entregado siempre tal cuál soy, asustado porque la noche inmediata trae remordimientos, sueños rotos y viejos fantasmas...
Aunque llevo ventaja: sé que el sol volverá a salir, resplandeciente, intacto, dando luz allí donde antes todo era oscuridad.
Y esa será una nueva oportunidad para continuar mi camino... //
One evening anticipates the dark night. It is as if her beauty colored end a beautiful day full of excitement and achievement, or forgettable sentences ... But definitely, the beauty that surrounds us is interpreted for good or evil according to the mood of the observer ...
Had a significance for me especially sad ... It was like fire 10 years of having given everything, and wrongs, to create, to teach and share emotions, experiences, successes and failures ... It was a stage in my life which stuck in my affections take ...
So I say "sad". It's not easy knowing that you stop looking back 10 years, friends, colleagues, people good and some not so ...
But this sad evening drink with a bit of hope ahead, having given myself always pleased as I am frightened because the night brings immediate remorse, broken dreams and old ghosts ...
Although I lead: I know the sun will rise again, glowing, untouched, giving light where before all was dark.
And that would be another opportunity to continue my destiny ...

Just beyond the sunset
Someone waits for me
Just beyond the sunset
Lies my destiny
Where the purple mountains
Lie in deep tranquillity
There I’ll find the treasure
Of love eternally
Just beyond the sunset
Waits someone so fair
Just beyond the sunset
All alone they wait there
Their hair is golden
The colour of the sand
Their eyes sparkle in the night
Like diamonds in your hand
Just beyond the sunset
Lies a home for me
Where the world is peaceful
Like a paradise should be
Just beyond the sunset
Someday is where you’ll find me

The grandness of Everest in Tibet , jomo langma ཇོ་མོ་གླང་མ།
Mount Everest – also called Qomolangma Peak (Mount Sagarmāthā (Nepali: सगरमाथा), Tibetan: ཇོ་མོ་གླང་མ; Chinese Zhumulangma Peak simplified Chinese: 珠穆朗玛峰; pinyin: Zhūmùlǎngmǎ Fēng), Chajamlangma (Limbu), or Mount Chomolangma – is the world's highest mountain above sea level at 8,848 metres (29,029 ft). Part of the Himalaya range in Asia, it is located on the border between Sagarmatha Zone, Nepal, and Tibet, China.
In 1856, the Great Trigonometric Survey of India established the first published height of Everest, then known as Peak XV, at 29,002 ft (8,840 m). In 1865, Everest was given its official English name by the Royal Geographical Society upon recommendation of Andrew Waugh, the British Surveyor General of India at the time. Chomolangma had been in common use by Tibetans for centuries, but Waugh was unable to propose an established local name because Nepal and Tibet were closed to foreigners.
The highest mountain in the world attracts well-experienced mountaineers as well as novice climbers who are willing to pay substantial sums to professional mountain guides to complete a successful climb. The mountain, while not posing substantial technical climbing difficulty on the standard route (other eight-thousanders such as K2 or Nanga Parbat are much more difficult), still has many inherent dangers such as altitude sickness, weather and wind. By the end of the 2008 climbing season, there had been 4,102 ascents to the summit by about 2,700 individuals.[4] Climbers are a significant source of tourist revenue for Nepal, whose government also requires all prospective climbers to obtain an expensive permit, costing up to US $ 25,000 per person. By the end of 2009 Everest had claimed 216 lives, including eight who perished during a 1996 storm high on the mountain. Conditions are so difficult in the death zone (altitudes higher than 8,000 m/26,246 ft) that most corpses have been left where they fell. Some of them are visible from standard climbing routes.
[+] So, where do I start? Some months ago I got a mail from the publisher Limbus if they could use this photo for the cover of their new book, Konstruktion einer Stadt by Wolfgang Hermann. Today I got my five copies of the book, and, well, here it is. :)
F*ck yeah! :D

I can honestly say
You've been on my mind
Since I woke up today, up today
I look at your photograph all the time
These memories come back to life
And I don't mind
I remember when we kissed
I still feel it on my lips
The time that you danced with me
With no music playing
I remember the simple things
I remember til I cry
But the one thing I wish I'd forget
The memory I wanna forget is goodbye
I woke up this morning
And played our song
And through my tears sang along
I picked up the phone
And then put it down
Cause I know I'm wasting my time
And I don't mind
I remember when we kissed
I still feel it on my lips
The time that you danced with me
With no music playing
I remember the simple things
I remember til I cry
But the one thing I wish I'd forget
The memory I wanna forget is goodbye
Suddenly my cell phone's blowing up
With your ring-tone
I hesitate but answer it anyway
You sound so alone
I'm surprised to hear you say
Saying goodbye
Oh, goodbye~
