Cold Song

 

Catedrales de ensueño

 

Tañe en la campana de tu iglesia

un himno, mi oración

duerme con el alma,

asciende en la noche,

esas mágnificas murallas

sobre la montaña más alta

para ver respirar tus catedrales de ensueño.

 

Me adentro en tus abismos de mar y vida

el tiempo que ha sido, también es,

puedo ver la luz de ese tiempo,

aún no agotado,

oir esa música lenta que llama la nostlagía

de lo que no pasa

y revive en el delirio

de esta augusta visión.

 

“Do not praise the day before sunset.”

 

(Dutch proverb)

تبحثُ عن الهُدوءِ !!

قلّل إهتِمامك ..

Paulownia Tomentosa the Anna Paulownia tree.

I have found this tree in an Arboretum in Eeklo Belgium!

It's worth it ! ;-) yes it does 😍

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

A true and interesting story:

Carving paulownia wood is an art form in Japan and China.

 

The leaves can be eaten cooked; the flowers are edible, for example in a salad. But people only eat the plant in dire need, when there is nothing else to eat.

 

In early spring, before the leaves emerge, the fragrant, light lilac-purple flowers appear. Their scent is reminiscent of vanilla.

 

A decoction of the leaves is used to cleanse nasty sores and is said to promote hair growth and prevent graying. The leaves can also be used as a compress for bruises. The juice of the leaves is used against warts. The flowers are used in the treatment of skin conditions. A tincture of the bark is used in the treatment of fever and delirium. It has an astringent effect and is also used to expel parasitic worms.

 

The wood is not attacked by insects and is used to make boxes, clogs, furniture, musical instruments, etc. It is suitable for poles and beams in construction and a source of charcoal. The nitrogen-rich leaves are a good fodder crop and the roots prevent soil erosion. Various Asian string instruments are made from Paulownia tomentosa, including the Japanese koto and the Korean gayageum zither.

 

The plant contains a number of potentially toxic substances.

 

In China, this tree was traditionally planted at the birth of a girl. The fast-growing tree developed as the girl grew up. When she got married, the tree was cut down and the wood was carved into items for her dowry.

Well I don't have photos of hearts or flowers, but I feel like I should be somewhat in the spirit of Valentines. So making things pink is the next best thing. I shot this on my flight to Hilo on the Big Island. Hope you all have a good Vday.

Found this beautiful, yellow full-blown rose in an overgrown, neglected garden within sight of the beautiful Mosel river and vineyard clad hillsides. Germany.

 

Thanks for dropping by.

hey everyone! I didn't post yesterday. I didn't take anything was proud of, and even this I don't like very much. I'll try to get something better tomorrow. Tonight is the lacrosse banquet though, and tomorrow I have church. This is certainly a busy time of the year! But don't worry... photography is definitely a priority now.

 

Have a great week!

It has been a very long day for me today. I'm pretty mentally exhausted, don't really have time to think about what to post for the day so I just dug up this simple leaf capture from my archives, one for my red and green "state of mind". It's not really a very old photo, not even two weeks old. No verses coming out of my brain tonight. Instead, here's a favorite song from Sarah Mclachlan (hope you'll take the time to listen), ANSWER. Link will open in a new window.

Etwa drei Kilometer südlich von Bad Tölz liegt "Klein Kairo". Hier richtet Karl-Heinz Fett aus tausenden von Isarkieseln seine teilweise übermannshohen Steinkegeln auf. Bei jedem Flußhochwasser ändert sich diese "Natur-Kunst", die Kegel werden beschädigt oder gar zerstört. Immer und immer wieder richtet Karl-Heinz Fett sie auf und sorgt dafür, dass es immer wieder Spass macht, diesen tollen Ort zu besuchen.

Quante gocce di rugiada intorno a me,

cerco il sole ma non c'è…

Dorme ancora la campagna, forse no,

è sveglia, mi guarda, non so.

Già l'odore della terra odor di grano,

sale adagio verso me.

e la vita nel mio petto batte piano,

respira la nebbia, penso a te.

Quanto verde tutto intorno a ancor piú in là,

sembra quasi un mera l'erba,

e leggero il mio pensiero vola e va

ho quasi paura che si perda…

Un cavallo tende il collo verso il prato

resta fermo como me:

faccio un passo, lui mi vede, è già

fuggito…

Respiro la nebbia, penso a te.

No, cosa sono adesso non lo so

sono como, un uomo in cerca di se stesso

no, cosa sono adesso non lo so

sono solo, solo il suono del mio passo…

Ma intanto il sole tra la nebbia filtra già:

il giorno come sempre sarà.

Aria tersa d'un settembre che pare senza fine

aria già fredda

acqua già fredda…

intorno irrepetibili colori e silenzi

e foglie cadute e cadute

e nubi bige a rimpiettino

e il mio rabbrividire...

ia giacca stretta al petto...

un sapore di uva...

e dita attaccatticca...

e il giorno

come vai bello

come sempre possente:

Come sempre....

The nebula Messier 78 is a reflection nebula in the constellation Orion. It was discovered by Pierre Méchain in 1780 and included by Charles Messier in his catalog of comet-like objects that same year.

M78 is the brightest diffuse reflection nebula of a group of nebulae that include NGC 2064, NGC 2067 and NGC 2071. This group belongs to the Orion Molecular Cloud Complex and is about 1,600 light years distant from Earth. M78 is easily found in small telescopes as a hazy patch and involves two stars of 10th magnitude. These two stars, HD 38563A and HD 38563B, are responsible for making the cloud of dust in M78 visible by reflecting their light.

The husband of one of our employees made up the name that I used for the title, many years ago and I still chuckle when I think of it.

 

I used my Canon MT-24EX Macro Twin Light Flash for these shots, which I hardly ever do, but I think I will use it more often, now, based on how some of the images in this series turned out. I'm going to shoot tethered to my laptop, though, because it's pretty hard to evaluate the lighting on the shots from the LCD screen on the back of my camera. There are so many things to learn about photography, which is one of the reasons that I love it.

The souls of people, on their way to Earth-life, pass through a room full of lights; each takes a taper - often only a spark - to guide it in the dim country of this world. But some souls, by rare fortune, are detained longer - have time to grasp a handful of tapers, which they weave into a torch. These are the torch-bearers of humanity - its poets, seers and saints, who lead and lift the race out of darkness, toward the light. They are the law-givers and saviours, the light-bringers, way-showers and truth-tellers, and without them, humanity would lose its way in the dark.

Day time trek to Ogmore with Molly rain / cloud was weathermans story i got lucky , will return here when the tide is right and will either be a sunrise or sunset .

 

This was'nt the beach i was planning the tide had not dropped enough and there was a group of approx 12 people waiting to climb down into the small gorge with their teacher so i chose another part of this addictive coastline

So the light was very overcast - no vivid colours today .

3 Exposures blended in photomatix

Hoya ND8 filter

Tweaks in Adobe 6

Some Tweaks in picnix

 

Achieved the results i expected , Earth tones, as the tide dropped with some drama in the sky, the light was kind to me as i arrived , been to Ogmore so many times in the last 2 yrs never noticed this rock formation before now .
