Příroda je ten nejlepší malíř. Stačilo pár větviček a jeden odvážný model, aby vznikl tenhle hřejivý portrét. Jakou barvu má váš dnešní den?
Nature is the best artist. All it took was a few twigs and one brave model to create this warm portrait. What color is your day today?
Children heading towards school in a remote area of Kund malir Balochistan, where literacy rate is very low, still they manage to traverse rough terrain and goto school everyday.
Reminds me of privileged people having access to roads and cars and these kids are simply free from such desires and life is simple, they don't mind walking every day to get themselves educated.

It is a rare visitor to Western Europe - one very old record from the UK and a few from the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Spain and in the last 10 years, Norway?
Will this species be ever recorded again in Britain?

Bernardo Bellotto (1722-1780) - The Castello Sforzesco (Milan)
Benátky, před 1747
Olej, plátno, 60 x 97,5 cm
Státní zámek Náměšť nad Oslavou, původ Plaveč
Bernardo Bellotto patří vedle svého strýce Giovanniho Antonia Canala, známého pod jménem Canaletto, a Francesca Guardiho k nejproslulejším italským vedutistům – malířům měst – a krajinářům 18. století. Vedle oblíbených výjevů z rodných Benátek proslul také malbami měst střední a východní Evropy. V roce 1747 se na pozvání saského kurfiřta přestěhoval do Drážďan, kde tvořil až do svého odchodu do Vídně ke dvoru císařovny Marie Terezie v roce 1758 . Závěr svého života prožil jako malíř posledního polského krále Stanislava II. Augusta ve Varšavě. Bellotto malující pomocí camery obscury, kterou převáděl skutečnost na plátno, vytvářel dokonalé zachycení podoby měst a jeho obyvatel. Jeho veduty byly tak přesné, že se podle nich dokonce rekonstruovalo centrum Varšavy zničené během druhé světové války. Obraz milánského hradu Sforzesco ze sbírek zámku v Náměšti nad Oslavou byl vytvořen ještě za Bellottova působení v Itálii před rokem 1747; dokonalá malba architektury je oživena lidskými postavami, takzvanou figurální stafáží a dvěma zlatými berlinami.
Fishermen going home after completing daily catch of fish.
It was quite solitary and dark when I arrived but later on found host of other thriving business around me.
The Thought:
In this fast paced world of ours, all of us are busy chasing dreams - dreams someone else has envisioned for us . . . do we really know what we want ? Do we really have a sense of purpose ? have we thought to pause and see where we're headed in such a fury ? as Orison Swett Marden once put it; "We lift ourselves by our thought, we climb upon our vision of ourselves" - the question today is; do we really have a vision of ourselves ? The answer to me seems a big no; and if that's the case, we're racing towards self destruction.
The Shot:
As we stopped for breakfast at Kund Malir (after a good 3 hour sleep by the road-side on the Makran coastal highway and a visit to Hinglaj Mata *more on that soon*)
on the 28th of February 2017, I thought to give the new DJI Phantom 4 Pro a test flight. Early morning routine for these fishermen seemed interesting, with some lying on their backs after their tiring expedition. As I looked closer, one boat was being towed by the other !

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umar_Marvi
Umar Marvi (Sindhi: عمر ماروي) is a Sindh love story that appears in Shah Jo Risalo. It is a love story set in Sindh, Pakistan. It has become part of the cultural identity of Pakistan, as have stories like Sassi Punnun, Heer Ranjha, and Sohni Mahiwal.
Synopsis
Marvi (Sindhi: ماروي) was a Sindhi heroine famous for her chastity, patriotism, and simplicity. Phog (Sindhi: ڦوڳ), an orphan boy, lived with Marvi's family. As children, Marvi and Phog played together. Attracted by Marvi's beauty, he wanted to marry her, but Marvi had always treated him like a brother. She told him not to expect anything beyond that. Rebuffed, Phog sulked and withdrew. Marvi found her ideal in Khet, a cousin who lived in a neighbouring village. He was handsome and brave, and he was deeply in love with Marvi. She lived in a village called Malir in Tharparkar desert. She was a beautiful village girl and was engaged to her cousin Khet (Sindhi: کيت). One day while she was filling water in her pots from a well (now called "Marvi's Well" (Sindhi: ماروي جو کوھ) Marvi jo khooh) to provide water for her goats, was seen by Prince Umar Soomro (Sindhi: عمر سومرو). Umar (Sindhi: عمر) was immediately dazzled by her beauty. Umar proposed to marry her and tried to win her over with jewels and gifts, but Marvi refused, as she was deeply devoted to her cousin. Angered by her refusals, Umar abducted her and imprisoned her his palace in Umerkot for a whole year, but she remained faithful and longed for her native terrain. Finally, Umar was deeply touched by her dedication and piety and set Marvi free.
Umar knowing about Marvi
In those days Sindh was ruled by Umar Soomro, whose capital was Umarkot, now in Pakistan. He was known for his justice. He had only one weakness: he loved beautiful women. His palace was full of beautiful damsels from all parts of Sindh. Phog left Malir and went to Umarkot to seek his fortune. He managed to secure employment under Umar. He soon won Umar's confidence and was put to work managing matters relating to women. One day he told Umar about the most beautiful woman in Sindh. Curious, the Umar asked, "Who is she?" Phog replied, "Her name is Marvi."
Adaptations
Umar Marvi was recreated in Pakistan in the form of a television series recreating the story of Marvi in a more modern setting, where Marvi is depicted as a Sindhi village girl who is educated and wants to go to the city for further education. Marvi's best friend, with whom she dorms in the city, has a brother named Umar who falls in love with her and proposes to her. Upon Marvi's refusal to marry him he consults his friend, a rich land owner in Marvi's village. The two devise a plan to abduct Marvi and keep her at Umar Sommro's mansion. Marvi somehow manages to escape from Umar Summro's, but upon her return, the villagers demand where she has been and question her chastity. Marvi's friend, who is aware of her brother's acts, consults a journalist and a lawyer to have her brother arrested for kidnapping. During the trial, Marvi has to face all kinds of questions about her piety and chastity, but finally Umar stands up in the courtroom and admits he is guilty and that Marvi is indeed a woman of great character.

Marvi was a beautiful lady of Malir, a village in Tharparkar desert of Sindh. One day, she was filling water in her pots from this well (which is now named as Marvi well - ماروي جو کوھ) , the king Umar caught sight of her. He was captivated and enamoured by her dazzling charms and winsome personality. Umar proposes her to marry and tries to attract and win her with jewels and his great riches. But Marvi was unimpressed and refused his proposal, as she was in love with her cousin (Khet) and deeply devoted to him. Infuriated by her refusal, Umar felt humialiated and decided to teach her a lesson. He abducted her and imprisoned her in his magnificent palace. He tried his utmost to convince Marvi to marry him. He wanted her to forget her people and start living luxurious life with him in his palace. But, out of her love for her people, old huts, her village, she remained unmoved and indifferent to all his demands and temptations. She refused to even eat, getting weaker and weaker as the days went by. She kept requesting him to set her free and allow her to meet her own beloved Marus (people).
When all her beseeching failed to move Umar to set her free.

Some memorable quotes from Quaid-e-Azam Mohammed Ali Jinnah
“Pakistan not only means freedom and independce but the Muslim Ideology which has to be preserved, which has come to us as a precious gift and treasure and which, we hope other will share with us”
Message to Frontier Muslim Students Federation
June 18, 1945
“If we want to make this great State of Pakistan happy and prosperous we should wholly and solely concentrate on the well-being of the people, and especially of the masses and the poor... you are free- you are free to go to your temples mosques or any other place of worship in this state of Pakistan. You may belong to any religion, caste or creed that has nothing to do with the business of the state... in due course of time Hindus will cease to be Hindus and Muslims will cease to Muslims- not in a religious sense for that is the personal faith of an individual- but in a political sense as citizens of one state”
Address to the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan, Karachi
August 11, 1947
"Our object should be peace within, and peace without. We want to live peacefully and maintain cordial friendly relations with our immediate neighbours and with the world at large."
Lahore

October 24, 1947
“You have to stand guard over the development and maintenance of Islamic democracy, Islamic social justice and the equality of manhood in your own native soil. With faith, discipline and selfless devotion to duty, there is nothing worthwhile that you cannot achieve.”
Address to the officers and men of the 5th Heavy Ack Ack and 6th Light Ack Ack Regiments in Malir, Karachi
February 21, 1948
“That freedom can never be attained by a nation without suffering and sacrifice has been amply borne out by the recent tragic happenings in this subcontinent. We are in the midst of unparalleled difficulties and untold sufferings; we have been through dark days of apprehension and anguish; but I can say with confidence that with courage and self-reliance and by the Grace of God we shall emerge triumphant.”
Speech at a Mammoth Rally at the University Stadium, Lahore

October 11, 1947
“We must work our destiny in our own way and present to the world an economic system based on true Islamic concept of equality of manhood and social justice.

A full interview with the Israeli painter Raphael Perez (in Hebrew Rafi Peretz) about the ideas behind the naive painting, resume, personal biography and CV
Question: Raphael Perez Tell us about your work process as a naive painter?
Answer: I choose the most iconic and famous buildings in every city and town that are architecturally interesting and have a special shape and place the iconic buildings on boulevards full of trees, bushes, vegetation, flowers.
Question: How do you give depth in your naive paintings?
Answer: To give depth to the painting, I build the painting with layers of vegetation, after those low famous buildings, followed by a tall avenue of trees, and behind them towers and skyscrapers, in the sky I sometimes put innocent signs of balloons, kites.
A recurring motif in some of my paintings is the figure of the painter who is in the center of the boulevard and paints the entire scene unfolding in front of him, also there are two kindergarten teachers who are walking with the kindergarten children with the state flags that I paint, and loving couples hugging and kissing and family paintings of mother, father and child walking in harmony on the boulevard.
Question: Raphael Perez What characterizes your naive painting?
Answer: Most naive paintings have the same characteristics
(Definition as it appears in Wikipedia)
• Tells a simple story to absorb from everyday life, usually with humans.
• The representation of the painter's idealization to reality - the mapping of reality.
• Failure to maintain perspective - especially details even in distant details.
• Extensive use of repeating patterns - many details.
• Warm and bright colors.
• Sometimes the emphasis is on outlines.
• Most of the characters are flat, lack volume
• No interest in texture, expression, correct proportions
• No interest in anatomy.
• There is not much use of light and shadow, the colors create a three-dimensional effect.
I find these definitions to be valid for all my naive paintings
Question: Raphael Perez Why do you mainly choose the city of Tel Aviv?
Answer: I was born in Jerusalem, the capital city which I love very much and also paint,
I love the special Bauhaus buildings in Tel Aviv, the ornamental buildings that were built a century ago in the 1920s and 1930s, the beautiful boulevards, towers and modern skyscrapers give you the feeling of the hustle and bustle of a large metropolis and there are quite a few low and tall buildings that are architecturally fascinating in their form the special one
Also, the move to Tel Aviv, which is the capital of culture, freedom, and secularism, allowed me to live my life as I chose, to live in a relationship with a man, Jerusalem, which is a traditional city, it is more complicated to live a homosexual life, also, the art world takes place mainly in the city of Tel Aviv, and it is possible that from a professional point of view, this allows I can support myself better in Tel Aviv than in any other city in Israel.
Question: raphael perez are the paintings of the city of Tel Aviv different from the paintings of the city of Jerusalem
Answer: Most of the paintings of Jerusalem have an emphasis on the color yellow, gold, the color of the old city walls, the subjects I painted in Jerusalem are mainly a type of idealization of a peaceful life between Jews and Arabs and paintings that deal with the Jewish religious world, a number of paintings depict all shades of the currents of Judaism of today
In contrast, the Tel Aviv paintings are more colorful, with skyscrapers, the sea, balloons and more secular motifs
Question: Raphael Perez Tell us about which buildings and their architects you usually choose in your city paintings
Answer: My favorite buildings are those that have a special shape that anyone can recognize and are the symbols of the city and you will give several examples:
In the city of Tel Aviv, my favorite buildings are: the opera building with its unusual geometric shape, the Yisrotel tower with its special head, the Hail Bo Shalom tower that for years was the symbol of the tallest building in Tel Aviv, the Levin house that looks like a Japanese pagoda, the burgundy-colored Nordeau hotel with the special dome at the end of the building, A pair of Alon towers with the special structure of the sea, Bauhaus buildings typical of Tel Aviv with the special balconies and the special staircase, the Yaakov Agam fountain in Dizengoff square appears in a large part of the paintings, many towers that are in the stock exchange complex, the Aviv towers and other tall buildings on Ayalon, in some of the paintings I took plans An outline of future buildings that need to be built in the city and I drew them even before they were built in reality,
In the paintings of Jerusalem, I mainly chose the area of the Old City and East Jerusalem, a painting of the walls of the Old City, the Western Wall, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, the El Akchea Mosque, the Tower of David, most of the famous churches in the city, the right hand of Moses, in most of the paintings the Jew is wearing a blue shirt with a red male cord I was in the youth movement and the Arab with a galabia, and in the paintings of the religious public then, Jews with black suits and white shirts, tallitas, kippahs, special hats, synagogues and more
I also created three paintings of the city of Haifa and one painting of Safed
In the Haifa paintings I drew the university, the Technion, the famous Egged Tower, the Sail Tower, well-known hotels, of course the Baha'i Gardens and the Baha'i Temple, Haifa Port and the boats and other famous buildings in the city
Question: Have you created series of other cities from around the world?
Answer: I created series of New York City with all the iconic and famous buildings such as: the Guggenheim Museum, the famous skyscrapers - the Chrysler Building, the Empire State Building, Lincoln Center, the famous synagogue in the city, the Statue of Liberty, the flags of the United States and other famous buildings
Two paintings of London and all its famous sites, Big Ben, famous monuments, the Ferris wheel, Queen Elizabeth and her family, the double bus, the famous public telephone, palaces, famous churches, well-known monuments
I created 4 naive paintings of cities in China, a painting of Shanghai, two paintings of the city of Suzhou and a painting of the World Park in the city of Beijing... I chose the famous skyline of Shanghai with all the famous towers, the famous promenade, temples and old buildings, two Paintings of the city of Suzhou with the famous canals, bridges, special gardens, towers and skyscrapers of the city
