Young monks in Bhutanese monasteries learn to play the dungchen, or Tibetan horn, as part of traditional music and dance programs, along with subjects like Buddhist philosophy and meditation. This long brass or copper trumpet is an important instrument in Tibetan culture, and is typically played in pairs with one horn playing a drone while the other plays the melody. The dungchen is used in Tibetan Buddhist ceremonies and rituals, and is believed to have spiritual and ceremonial significance. It is often used in processions and other religious events, as well as in secular music. The sound of the horn is powerful and is said to be able to reach great distances, used to call the attention of deities during religious ceremonies.

By learning to play the dungchen, young monks help to preserve Bhutanese cultural heritage and prepare to serve their communities. This picture was taken at Paro Dzong, the administrative seat of Paro district in Bhutan, where the instrument is displayed as part of the Dzong's treasured collection – Paro, Bhutan

I was working on two of my photographic projects, then Carnival arrived, I put aside what I had done up until then, and so I created this group of photographs; they are shots taken during the Carnival which took place in Taormina center (Taormina alta) and in Trappitello (fraction of Taormina, the plain part of Taormina, located towards the hinterland; there is also Taormina seaside, but this part is not was affected by the Carnival). Carnival, from a photographic point of view, has always interested me not for its allegorical floats, not for its beautiful or refined masks, but for the people who find themselves "behind the masks", for their emotions, the their ability to have fun, to uninhibit themselves, even in front of the camera. I photographed a detail of the float dedicated to the mayor of Taormina, Cateno De Luca, I photographed boys and girls from the masked groups who paraded through the city streets, as well as boys and girls not belonging to any group, who had fun with clothes invented for the 'occasion; despite having placed heterogeneous photographs, I mostly followed a theme that refers to a work by Andy Warhol, an iconic figure of Pop Art as well as being one of the most important artists of the 20th century, ideally linking myself for its creation to the allegorical float of Pop Art of Taormina.

I conclude, I dedicate this work to the flicker-friend White Angel, hoping to please her.

Stavo lavorando a due miei progetti fotografici, poi è arrivato il Carnevale, ho messo da parte quanto avevo fino ad allora fatto, ed ho così realizzato questo gruppo di fotografie; sono scatti realizzati durante il Carnevale che si è svolto a Taormina centro (Taormina alta) ed a Trappitello (frazione di Taormina, la parte in pianura di Taormina, sita verso l’entroterra; c’è anche Taormina mare, ma questa parte non è stata interessata dal Carnevale). Il Carnevale, dal punto di vista fotografico, mi ha sempre interessato non per i suoi carri allegorici, non per le sue maschere belle o ricercate che siano, ma per le persone che si trovano “dietro le maschere”, per le loro emozioni, la loro capacità di divertirsi, di disinibirsi, anche davanti la macchina fotografica. Ho fotografato un dettaglio del carro dedicato al sindaco di Taormina, Cateno De Luca, ho fotografato ragazzi e ragazze dei gruppi in maschera che sfilavano per le vie cittadine, come ragazzi e ragazze non appartenenti a nessun gruppo, che si divertivano con vestiti inventati per l’occasione; pur avendo messo fotografie eterogenee, ho seguito maggiormente un tema che fa riferimento ad un lavoro di Andy Warhol, figura iconica della Pop Art oltre che essere uno dei più importanti artisti del XX secolo, agganciandomi idealmente per la sua realizzazione, al carro allegorico della Pop Art di Taormina.

Concludo, dedico questo lavoro alla flicker-friend White Angel, sperando di farle cosa gradita.

"As we grow up,

we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down...probably will.

You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time.

You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken.

You'll fight with your best friend.

You'll blame a new love for things an old one did.

You'll cry because time is passing too fast

and you'll eventually lose someone you love.

So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you have never been hurt

because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.

Don’t be afraid that your life will end,

be afraid that it will never begin."

Carnivorous plants are plants that derive some or most of their nutrients (but not energy) from trapping and consuming animals or protozoans, typically insects and other arthropods. Carnivorous plants appear adapted to grow in places where the soil is thin or poor in nutrients, especially nitrogen, such as acidic bogs and rock outcroppings. Charles Darwin wrote Insectivorous Plants, the first well-known treatise on carnivorous plants, in 1875. (Wikipedia)

  

Things weren' t going my way

I was feeling down all the time

You held me through the pain

Stood by me in the rain

So today I'm free

Feeling fine all the time

Don't have to wait and see

We're on a one way dream

Like the clouds I'm flying and I'm...

And now I' m flying high above the sky

And it' s all because of you

I got a feeling in my heart

My life can really start

And it' s all because of you

So I downloaded the Black Dragon viewer today and went to one of my favorite landscapes in SL to see what it offered.

Hmmm- I obviously have a lot to learn about what black dragon offers: I couldn't work out the lighting tricks it does that Firestorm doesn't. Still, nice photo I think.

September 2011.

You learn something new every day. When we left on the ferry to go to Grand Manan Island, I noticed this arch in the dense fog. It turns out it's something called a "fog bow".

 

According to wikipedia, a fog bow is a similar phenomenon to a rainbow; however, as its name suggests, it appears as a bow in fog rather than rain. Because of the very small size of water droplets that cause fog, the fog bow has only very weak colors. Mariners sometimes call fog bows sea-dogs.

Clearly, some of our younger squirrels have a LOT to learn when it comes to stashing nuts away for the winter months.

 

We see them grabbing a nut, whole or shelled, and then hurrying off to bury it. But more often than not, just a mere arm's length away from the Goodie Bowl they found it in! Or they'll even bury it in any random place they can find - like between this owl garden statue and giant mushroom statue, seen here!

 

The places are usually so random it seems impossible that they'll remember where they buried those nuts in a few months. More than likely, other squirrels have happened across those nuts and eagerly snatched them up right then and there.

 

And don't get me started on all those nuts, and trees or vines we find in our outdoor potted plants. But on second thought, perhaps that makes more sense because they are fixed locations. LOL!

For as long as I can remember I've been afraid of birds, I'm able to watch them from a far but I get uncomfortable being around them. I've tried to understand where it comes from, why these creatures that are in fact quite beautiful make me feel fearful. I try to watch them in flight to figure it all out.
