moonrocksastro.com/index.php/2015/11/01/cepheus/
It is named after Cepheus, King of Aethiopia in Greek mythology. It was one of the 48 constellations listed by the 2nd century astronomer Ptolemy, and remains one of the 88 modern constellations. Its brightest star is Alpha Cephei with an apparent magnitude of 3.5. Delta Cephei is the prototype of an important class of star known as a Cepheid variable. RW Cephei, an orange hypergiant, together with the red supergiants Mu Cephei, VV Cephei and V354 Cephei are among the largest stars known. In addition, Cepheus also has the hyperluminous quasar S5 0014+81, hosting an ultramassive black hole in its core at 40 billion solar masses, about 10,000 times more massive than the central black hole of the Milky Way, making it the most massive black hole known in the universe.

Esta tarde me sentia con ganas de crear, asi que me ha entrado una fiebre extraña y he revelado algunas fotos que hice hace un par de dias en el Pot Vell de Barcelona. Me sorprendio la hermosura y la estetica de los carromatos, pintados de vivos colores y todos de madera.. Aun no he ido a ver el espectaculo.... a ver si convenzo a mi mujer...
Solo pondre en murales esta foto, aunque se agradeceran las invitaciones para las demas si os agradan.
Aprovecho para desearos Feliz fin de Año !!
seen after an little evening cruise at Lucerne Saturday evening !
.... Und das geht hin und eilt sich, dass es endet,
und kreist und dreht sich nur und hat kein Ziel.
Ein Rot, ein Grün, ein Grau vorbeigesendet,
ein kleines kaum begonnenes Profil -.
Und manchesmal ein Lächeln, hergewendet,
ein seliges, das blendet und verschwendet
an dieses atemlose blinde Spiel ...
Fragment aus
Rainer Maria Rilke
Das Karussell
Jardin du Luxembourg
And it goes on and hurries to its end,
and circles about itself and has no goal.
A red, a green, a gray is sent along,
an outline small and hardly yet begun—
And sometimes a laughing face will turn again,
a blessing, that dazzles and just as quickly fades,
in this blind, breathless play . . .
(all tr. Cliff Crego)
Preparazione di una risaia
Come accade per tutte le specie coltivate sin dall’antichità, è difficile precisare l’esatta zona di provenienza del riso quasi certamente originario dell’Estremo Oriente, dove ancora oggi vivono due tipi di riso selvatico.
Le prime notizie certe sulla coltivazione del riso risalgono al 2800 a.C. Recenti scoperte archeologiche hanno stabilito che anche sulle assolate colline della penisola indocinese questa attività era in atto nello stesso periodo, grazie alla realizzazione dei famosi terrazzati che rappresentano una delle più geniali e pittoresche soluzioni inventate dall’uomo per vincere i dislivelli naturali.
“If one keeps loving faithfully what is really worth loving, and does not waste one's love on insignificant and unworthy and meaningless things, one will get more light by and by and grow stronger. Sometimes it is well to go into the world and converse with people, and at times one is obliged to do so, but he who would prefer to be quietly alone with his work, and who wants but very few friends, will go safest through the world and among people. And even in the most refined circles and with the best surroundings and circumstances, one must keep something of the original character of an anchorite, for other wise one has no root in oneself; one must never let the fire go out in one's soul, but keep it burning. "
-- Vincent van Gogh
Caught this awesome lightning bolt while I was chasing thunderstorms with my girlfriend.
So I finally have my lightning shot, I always wanted to capture one. I tried various methods, from long exposure (example 30 seconds) to shorter (2.5 seconds) consecutive shots. This one came out really well on 2.5 seconds exposure. I set the ISO at 400, although I've seen many photographers shoot them at 200, my shots looked greater at 400.
This was shot behind the Sanctuaire du Cap facing the Fleuve St-Laurent, Trois-Rivières, Quebec, Canada.
Thanks to everyone for the EXPLORE !
Amore non è guardarci l'un l'altro, ma guardare insieme nella stessa direzione.

You’ve got the cool water
When the fever runs high
You’ve got the look of love light in your eyes
And I was in crazy motion
till you calmed me down
It took a little time
But you calmed me down
When something goes wrong
I’m the first to admit it
I’m the first to admit it
And the last one to know
When something goes right
Well its likely to lose me, mm
Its apt to confuse me
Its such an unusual sight
Oh, I cant, I cant get used to something so right
Something so right
They’ve got a wall in china
Its a thousand miles long
To keep out the foreigners they made it strong
And I’ve got a wall around me
That you cant even see
It took a little time
To get next to me
When something goes wrong
I’m the first to admit it
I’m the first to admit it
And the last one to know
When something goes right
Well its likely to lose me, mm
Its apt to confuse me
Because its such an unusual sight
Oh, I cant, I cant get used to something so right
Something so right
Some people never say the words I love you
Its not their style
To be so bold
Some people never say the words I love you
But like a child they’re longing to be told, mm
When something goes wrong
I’m the first to admit it
I’m the first to admit it
And the last one to know
When something goes right
Well its likely to lose me, mm
Its apt to confuse me
Because its such an unusual sight
I swear, I cant, I cant get used to something so right
Something so right

An African Daisy. Thanks Celeste M.
I was suppose to post a photochallenge shot, for some reason, I didn't like anything that I shot and didn't want to torture you by posting!!! I guess this staying home is getting to me!! I guess photochallenge members will give me "time out" and send me to my corner!!!
This shot is from yesterday's rainy day, and this little beauty was defying the weather bravely!!! Hope you had a better day than I did!!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!!
Thank your very much for your beautiful note. It is so refreshing to read that there are some good people interested in me as a person. You cannot believe the notes I receive and their contents make me sick. I am not sorry for the bluntness of my words, that's who I am. I speak my mind, this is how my dad raised me and I don't see why people can't understand. They can play their game and weave their web, I cannot be fooled.
I only answer few of the mail I receive. Petty minds I don't tolerate and I say it like it is!!! So, my dear, I don't want to bore you how much others discuss me, I asked my good assistant to take her darn camera, as if she needed my asking and that's another story, to go outside and get some good shots of the house. You'll hear from her, that I am sure of.
Hope you'll be pleased with what you receive, from what I hear she is pretty good. If you ask me, golf is the sport (even the young Tiger is getting good at it). Yes I don't deny, cameras and my outspokenness are what made me.
Sincerely,
Kate"
I am sure this is what Kate would have written you!!! LOL!! Of course minus the accent!!!! hahahahaha.

The world’s light shines, shine as it will,
The world will love its darkness still.
I doubt though when the world’s in hell,
It will not love its darkness half so well.
But Men Loved Darkness rather than Light by Richard Crashaw (1612 - 1649)

Esta obra de José Torán se construye en el año 1921 con la función de comunicar la estación de ferrocarril recién construida con el centro histórico de la ciudad.
Aúna dos de los movimientos artísticos más presentes en Teruel: el mudéjar y el modernismo. Del primero toma el ladrillo como material constructivo y la decoración de cerámica vidriada. Del segundo la forja de las farolas.
El centro del comumento está decorado con un altorrelieve de Aniceto Marinas que recoge la escena del beso de los Amantes de Teruel.
Encontramos también el escudo de la ciudad. Se divide en cuatro cuarteles: el primero tiene el toro y la estrella representando la fundación de la ciudad, en el segundo vemos las barras de Aragón y en el inferior hay un cañón y un obús cruzados con balas encima y debajo. Sobre el escudo está la corona real sostenida por un murciélago, animal de Valencia
La forja de principios del siglo XX en Teruel es muy importante: en la Escalinata vemos las características normales pero encontramos como especial que en las superiores de nuevo aparece el murciélago.

'SUCH A PERFECT DAY' On Black: See your photos in a new light
Oh it's such a perfect day,
I'm glad I spent it with you.
Oh such a perfect day,
You just keep me hanging on,
You just keep me hanging on.
Just a perfect day,
Problems all left alone,
Weekenders on our own.
It's such fun.
Just a perfect day,
You made me forget myself.
I thought I was someone else,
Someone good.
Oh it's such a perfect day,
I'm glad I spent it with you.
Oh such a perfect day,
You just keep me hanging on,
You just keep me hanging on.
You're going to reap just what you sow,
"Perfect Day" - Lou Reed
En pleno corazón de la City, se erige este impresionante edificio, inaugurado por la Reina Isabel I en 1571, para alojar la bolsa londinense. El actual edificio, es la tercera reencarnación del mismo, ya que fue destruido por varios incendios. La actividad bursátil cesó en los años 30 y en la actualidad es un centro comercial de gran lujo, con tiendas de joyería, artículos exclusivos, restaurantes y bares.

When love's embrace mends a broken heart
Here I will stay for all my days

I think about life everyday. How all of us came to be who we are right this moment. In that one second our lives can be ripped off the face of the earth in a matter of seconds.
Just from walking down the wrong alley, leaving five minutes early for work, taking that flight back home. All of our thoughtless little actions could lead to something so horrible and so catastrophic that can lead to death. Everyday, about 250,000 people die and i'm not one of them, but someone else is. Tomorrow i could die, and not even know it. Thats what makes our lives so unbelievably precious.

Eu sei que vou sofrer

Listen The Mystics Dream - Loreena McKennitt
A small town in the province of Lleida which sits at the foot of the Sierra del Tallat mountains, in the valley of Maldanell. Its origins date back to a Cistercian monastery which came to be the most important female monastery of the Catalonian-Aragonese Crown.
The monastery was founded in the 12th century and when the Trento Council decided that female monasteries must not be left abandoned, the inhabitants of the area built a village around it. At present, the monastery of Vallbona de les Monjes houses a significant female community. Its architectural wealth lies in the wide variety of styles on display on its walls and exterior, the best of examples of which are the church door, the cloister and the chapter house. Vallbona de les Monges forms part of the so-called Cistercian triangle, along with the monasteries of Poblet (Conca de Barberà) and Santes Creus (Alt Camp).
