The Pyrrhuloxia (pronounced however your mouth decides in the moment) is the desert’s answer to a cardinal—same spiky crest, but with more attitude and less hydration.
I found this one perched on a rare leafy ocotillo, posing like he owned the place. With his candy-corn beak, dusty-red plumage, and permanent side-eye, he’s the bird version of a grumpy old-timer who’s seen things.
He’s tougher than his Northern cousin—built for heat, sand, and yelling at you from a bush for reasons known only to him. His song? Like a cardinal, but sharper, higher, and just a little bit judgmental.
Get the light right, and he glows like a desert ember.
He sings with a sting and glares like a monk—
A feathered grump with desert funk.
Reflejo del puente de acceso al Molino de Melomocho y de algunos arboles en una de las Lagunas pertenecientes al Parque Nacional de las Tablas de Daimiel, en la provincia de Ciudad Real, en concreto la Laguna Permanente, lugar éste donde empieza un interesante itinerario de 800 metros, donde se pueden observar distinta vegetacion y fauna.
Wave after wave
Will flow with the tide
And bury the world as it does
Tide after tide
Will flow and recede
Leaving life to go on
As it was......
RUSH Permanent Waves Album 14/01/1980
The main designers of this terrific ice sculpture at the hydroelectric power plant Niezelgrund are water drops, coldness and time. One drop alone wouldn't have effected anything here, without the other components. But the combination of these three elements were capable to creat this fugacious masterpiece.
For me this is the perfect symbol for live and the wish to achieve ore to create something. Yes, often the right circumstances are needed, but they alone are effecting nothing yet. Only with the permanent effort for my task, the passion of sustaining and proceeding, even if I can see barely any results at the beginning, make it possible for me to create something really extraordinary. And if finaly I'm the only one who is able to see, what extraordinary means, it still was worth it.
Die Hauptdesigner dieser grandiosen Eisskulpur am Wasserkraftwerk Niezelgrund sind Wassertropfen, Kälte und Zeit. Ein Tropfen allein würde hier nichts bewirken ohne die anderen Komponenten. Doch der Kombination aus den drei Elementen gelingt es, dieses vergängliche Meisterwerk zu erschaffen.
Für mich ein perfektes Sinnbild für das Leben und den Wunsch etwas zu erreichen oder etwas zu erschaffen. Ja, sehr häufig benötige ich die richtigen Rahmenbedingungen doch die allein bewiriken noch garnichts. Erst mein permanenter Einsatz für meine Sache die Leidenschaft des Durchhaltens, des Weitermachens, auch wenn die Ergebnisse anfangs noch kaum sichtbar sind, ermöglichen es, wirklich außergewöhnliches zu erreichen. Auch wenn ich schlußendlich der einzige bin, der zu erkennen vermag was außergewöhnlich bedeutet, hat es sich gelohnt.

The forest is my cathedral, the trees are the pillars and the leaf canopy high above me is the vault. Everywhere I can find small and large altars where I can dwell engrossed in thoughts. Nowhere I feel my connection to nature so strong than here.
It's not only the calm atmosphere and the permanent subdued light, it is so much more.
The forest is hiding the view to it's world around and it's cutting me off the noice from the everyday hectic in the cities. Everything sounds different than outside, softer. This impression is completed by a smell, I only can find here. The smell, oh I love that smell, of wet soil, moss and funghi.
In my opinion, there is no place where You better find to peace and to Yourself.
Der Wald ist meine Kathedrale, die Bäume sind die Säulen und das Blätterdach hoch über mir ist das Gewölbe. Überall finde ich kleine und große Altäre bei denen ich in Gedanken versunken verweilen kann. Nirgendwo fühle ich die Verbindung zur Natur so stark wie hier.
Es ist nicht nur die ruhige Atmosphäre und das ständig gedämpfte Licht hier, es ist so viel mehr.
Der Wald verdeckt die Sicht auf die Welt um ihn herum und schneidet mich vom Lärm des hektischen Alltags in den Städten ab. Alles klingt hier anders als draußen, weicher. Ergänzt wird dieser Eindruck von einem Geruch, den ich nur hier finde. Der Geruch, oh ich liebe diesen Geruch nach nasser Erde, Moos und Pilzen.
Es gibt meiner Meinung nach keinen besseren Ort um zur Ruhe zu kommen und zu Dir zu finden.

Kunstgewerbemuseum (Museum of Decorative Arts),
Berlin
"Das Kunstgewerbemuseum ist das älteste seiner Art in Deutschland. Es beherbergt weltberühmte Zeugnisse des europäischen Kunsthandwerks und Designs, darunter prunkvolle Reliquiare aus Gold und Edelstein, kostbare Vasen aus Glas oder Porzellan, fein bestickte Kleider, detailreich intarsierte Möbel bis hin zu Klassikern modernen Industriedesigns. (...)
Das Haus am Kulturforum entstand bis 1985 nach den Entwürfen von Rolf Gutbrod, einem der führenden deutschen Architekten der 1960er-Jahre. Kennzeichnend für seine Architektur ist die Sichtbarkeit konstruktiver Elemente. Das Museum ist als "gebaute Landschaft" gedacht und nimmt mit seiner Begrünung Bezug auf den benachbarten Tiergarten. Während das Gebäude nach außen geschlossen wirkt, empfängt es den Eintretenden mit einem offenen Treppenhaus und großzügigen Ausstellungsräumen. (...)
Von 2012 bis 2014 wurde der Gutbrot-Bau vom Architekturbüro Kuehn Malvezzi in weiten Teilen umgestaltet." www.smb.museum/museen-und-einrichtungen/kunstgewerbemuseu...

Macro Monday - Wavy lines
This is a section of a plug in air freshener casing. I found it in the cupboard recently and after thinking I wasn't going to find anything for the MM theme, I remembered this had wavy lines. It's quite grainy as hand held with very high ISO. Couldn't be faffing with a tripod in this heat. I also added a texture (my own) which added to the grainy look and enhanced the aqua colour. HMM
This is my postcard for Angharad. She thinks I'm always alone on the beach as I scare people away !!! This was taken after sunset on Hosta beach, when this group of "silly ladies" asked me to take some photos of them . I'm amazed they came out and were in focus , as it was quite dark. They were celebrating Rose's birthday, and were just a wonderful group of "silly ladies ". I did warn them I don't take photos of people. Permanently lonely is by Phosphorescent.
No road is completely interrupted.
No door permanently barred.
No history unrecoverable.
No useless life
Nessuna strada è completamente interrotta.
Nessuna porta definitivamente sbarrata.
Nessuna storia irrecuperabile.
Nessuna vita inutile

Out there in the distant and lush NW corner of Mount Rainier National Park Ranger Falls dances to the tune of angels cascading off of boulders and downed trees with a roar and a wet wind to an audience of none. One of the four remaining fire lookouts, perched upon Tolmie Peak, with one of the most magnificent views of the volcano sits abandoned, and access to the popular lake and campground which is a major resupply for the Wonderland Trail, Mowich, is cut off leaving me utterly heartbroken.
On April 14th the once beautiful 494 foot arched bridge that soars 250 feet above the Carbon River and the only public access point to 1/4 of MRNP was closed indefinitely and now....permanently as the 103 year old O'Farrell/Fairfax Bridge that is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places has become just that, historic.
I've been ranting for years about the way we've been hemorrhaging money on new schools and new fire stations as far as the eye can see while I drive like a drunken sailor, no offense Phil, to avoid the potholes and say silent prayers every time I cross a bridge. As Tobey Keith once said, the fits gonna hit the shan around here and it's about time.
Cap Rouge, Quebec City, Canada
First permanent establishments
In 1635, the first seigneurie was granted on the territory of Cape-Rouge, but revoked the following year by the Company of One Hundred Associates. However, by 1638 Paul Le Jeune, a missionary Jesuit, had noted in The Jesuit Relations the presence of some families in the valley.[1] Between 1647 and 1652, the seigneuries of Maur, on the west, and Gaudarville, in the east, were established on the territory. From that moment, based on taxable citizens, the settlement on the lands of Cap-Rouge are established. The village formed is served by the parishes of Ancienne-Lorette in (1678) to the north; of Saint-Augustin in (1691) on the west; and of Sainte-Foy (1698) in the east.
Geography
The beach of Plage Jacques Cartier and the cliffs of Cap-Rouge.
The name of Cap-Rouge, meaning "red cape", comes from its cliffs facing the Saint-Lawrence river and made of schist rock bearing a reddish tint. The other main topographic feature of Cap-Rouge is the Rivière du Cap Rouge valley where are concentrated some historic buildings as well the archeological remains of a pottery workshop active from 1860 to 1892. It is believed that until the end of its operations the workshop mainly used imported clay rather than the local one, which has a rather red hue.
The Cap-Rouge area is located to the south of the Canadian Shield and Laurentian Mountains, at the confluence of the geological regions of the Saint Lawrence Lowlands and of the northern Appalachians. It mostly sits at the western foot of the Quebec promontory, in the way of the Logan's Line - an inactive fracture in the Earth's crust first documented by Sir William Edmond Logan.
Palm trees are about the only things that do well when a particularly bad hurricane comes through, and this time, even many of those didn't make it when Matthew blew his 140 mph winds at them! These beauties at Ames Park managed to hold on, though, as they have done for a very long time.
This was the first hurricane I've seen that had the power to break 2 1/2 foot wide cedars off at the base of the trunk, and snap palms in half. Usually they just bend, and the storms actually do them a favor by cleaning the old fronds off. Not this time. Many of Florida's hardiest trees were downed by Hurricane Matthew.
.........or the populous streets in which they have played, remain but a place of passage. They may spend their whole lives aliens among their kindred and remain aloof among the only scenes they have ever knows. Perhaps it is this sense of strangeness that sends men far and wide in the search for something permanent, to which they may attach themselves. Perhaps some deep-rooted atavism urges the wanderer back to lands which his ancestors left in the dim beginnings of history. Sometimes a man hits upon a place to which he mysteriously feels that he belongs. Here is the home he sought, and he will settle amid scenes that he has never seen before, among men he has never known, as though they were familiar to him from his birth. Here at last he finds rest.

Closed permanently in 1994, this 1926-built 500 seat theater is currently undergoing renovation. At present the metal facing above the marquee has been removed to expose the original architecture.

HWW!
Permanent guest in our apartment, and as a cat food gourmet appreciated the treats we brought from Germany. The landlady found him as little cat with disabilities in the forest ("il bosco"), took him home and brought him up. Absolutely trusting and cuddly, his handicap makes him even more lovable - quite a little heartbreaker!
Dauergast in unserer Ferienwohnung, wußte als Feinschmecker die mitgebrachten Leckerlis zu schätzen. Die Vermieterin hat ihn als kleine Katze mit Behinderung im Wald ("il bosco") gefunden, mitgenommen und aufgezogen. Total zutraulich und verschmust, seine Behinderung macht ihn noch liebenswürdiger - ein richtiger kleiner Herzensbrecher!
