Dedicated to Trixie (8 Simple Rules) and to all my Flickr lady friends. Be aware of the dreaded breast cancer. Have regular checkups. My wife had it and I lost her.

 

Haha, and also to my gentlemen friends to have their prostrates checked. Hehe. Happy New Year!

Whether its breast, colon, lung, prostrate, blood, skin or any other cancers....it still all just cancer. The following link is one sisters story about her beloved sister. It puts a face to cancer, and this girl is asking for one thing and one thing alone ~ prayers for her sister and her family.

 

My sisters cancer story

I'm in a nostalgic mood and so I thought I would upload this oldie, taken with my old digicam. It's tiny, noisy, and I think I even see a dust spot. I love it.

 

At the time (2003) I had no idea where life would take me, had not the tiniest thought of being a professional photographer. I've always loved taking pictures, sure, but who doesn't? It never struck me as a calling, just something I occasionally geeked out on, leading me to crawl around in insane Bakersfield heat in a field full of garlic blossoms.

 

There are a few photographs, just three, that really woke me up. This is one of them. It's an image that planted a seed in my brain, opened my eyes to the possibilities, awakened a passion that has become a vocation, gave me permission to make a living in an artistic way. For a girl who was headed for medical school, that's a big leap indeed.

 

So enjoy this quirky scene. Imagine a hot, sweaty Sara prostrate in the garlicky dirt of the California central valley, a big grin on her face, bees tooling around in the blossoms. Be witness to the beginning of things, the fork in the road.

A prostrate enenmy is shown here, his hands tied uncomfortably behing his back in the typical posture of the subjugared prisoner. His features and hairstyle identify him ass relative of Syria-Palestine. The inscription bears an offering prayer dedicated to a man named Peninhery.

Christian Music Video | "Almighty God, You Are So Glorious"

Introduction

The last Christ, Almighty God, You are the Redeemer come again.

 

You speak to the people, using the truth to judge and purify them.

 

Your words bear authority and power, purifying people’s corrupt disposition.

 

Your words reveal omnipotence, and even more God’s righteousness.

 

God’s word judges the old world, judges nations, judges peoples.

 

God’s words achieve all; God has already thoroughly defeated Satan.

 

Praise God, praise God. Oh Almighty God, You are so glorious!

 

Your miraculous deeds! All nations and all peoples jump for joy.

  

God’s work is wise and almighty, using the great red dragon to serve.

 

Satan rushes frantic to persecute; tribulations make a group of overcomers.

 

All the people are completed by God, utterly forsaking the great red dragon.

 

The kingdom of Satan has been thoroughly destroyed; the kingdom of God has appeared on earth!

 

We prostrate ourselves in worship, praising God’s assumption of power on earth.

 

Truth and righteousness is revealed to the world; all nations and all peoples raise their voices in praise.

 

Praise God, praise God. Oh Almighty God, You are so glorious!

 

Your miraculous wisdom! All nations and all peoples jump for joy.

  

God’s great work is completed, God is returning to Zion.

 

Humanity has received great salvation from God, escaped the dark influences of Satan.

 

Each line of God’s words bears fruit. The outcomes for different people have been revealed.

 

Those with the truth are blessed by God, those who hate God shall meet with punishment.

 

Great disasters will destroy the world; God’s people will be left.

 

All nations and all peoples will come before God’s throne, and all the people will praise God with all their hearts.

 

Praise God, praise God. Oh Almighty God, You are so glorious!

 

All things in heaven and earth jump for joy, praising the glory of Almighty God!

Prostrate bluebell foliage in the churchyard at St Edward's, Leek, Staffordshire. Taken just after I slipped on a wet gravestone and the camera hit me in the face splitting my lip.

Anemone are perennials that have basal leaves with long leaf-stems that can be upright or prostrate. Leaves are simple or compound with lobed, parted, or undivided leaf blades. The leaf margins are toothed or entire.

 

Flowers with 4–27 sepals are produced singly, in cymes of 2–9 flowers, or in umbels, above a cluster of leaf- or sepal-like bracts. Sepals may be any color. The pistils have one ovule. The flowers have nectaries, but petals are missing in the majority of species.

 

The fruits are ovoid to obovoid shaped achenes that are collected together in a tight cluster, ending variously lengthened stalks; though many species have sessile clusters terminating the stems. The achenes are beaked and some species have feathery hairs attached to them.[

 

Summer Honeypot

The prostrate Banksia was flowering well after having been burnt in 2018. The plants have lignotuber roots that remain in the ground after a fire, allowing the the plant to regrow quickly.

 

This is a threatened plant.

This was on the Champs-Élysées. The walker on the left is Fred, who gave her some coins so I wouldn't feel badly taking her photo.

Today crowds of tibetan people are making the Kora from early in the morning until late in the evening. Kora is a kind of meditative walk around stupa, monastries or holy mountains (like the Kailash). The most devotee ones make full body prosternations after every step. Non buddhist visitors (like many nepalis) can walk around with the pilgrims.

 

The original stupa was built in the sixth century. Badly damaged by 2015 earthquake, it is completely repaired today (2017). Tibetan merchants have rested and offered prayers here for many centuries. When refugees entered Nepal from Tibet in the 1950s, many decided to live around Boudhanath. The Stupa is said to entomb the remains of Kassapa Buddha

Cornus Canadensis. Even though its habit is prostrate on the ground, its still a dogwood.

i luv these crazy-cool birds. this youngster's sunning on a 97F (36C) day here. many bird species employ this behavior to help rid themselves of feather parasites. they'll also prostrate themselves over an ant mound to enlist the aid of Formicans for the same purpose.

 

the bird's not calling, the open bill is a way to help dissipate body heat on a hot day, akin to a dog panting. ;)

Worshippers prostrating to accumulate merits and as a form of worship on the auspicious month of Saka Dawa which is now for two months as the Buddhist calendar states.

Our previous sightings of this plant has been that they grow on laterite ridges so it was interesting to see it growing in the sand.

It is a low sprawling shrub with its flowers extending from the plant and sitting on the ground.

 

Here you can see open flowers within the head of flowers, also containing closed flowers.

 

Many of the styles of the flowers had been chewed off and occasionally the petals had their tips chewed as well.

 

Petals, stamens and styles are visible in this photograph.

Devotees prostrate to demonstrate great humility and total submission during their pilgrimage to the Labrang Monastery . As my friend Rao Gobburu pointed out , the shadows on the floor do resemble a 'staircase ' for the devotees to climb . I was delightfully influenced to change the title of the photo to add emphasis on his observation .

This image was captured with 60 megapixels of detail, so feel free to use Flickr's mag 🔎 tool to have a close look at this guy.

I.D. anyone?

 

Many thanks to Penny T for coming up with the i.d. that seems to have stumped the rest of us. This is a Grevillea (Mason's Hybrid). According to Wikipedia, Grevillea is a diverse genus of about 360 species of evergreen flowering plants in the protea family Proteaceae, native to Australia, New Guinea, New Caledonia, and Sulawesi. It was named in honour of Charles Francis Greville. The species range from prostrate shrubs less than 0.5 m tall to trees 35 m tall. Common names include Grevillea, Spider Flower, Silky-oak and Toothbrush.

 

  

"His victory and peace became blurred with boredom. In the twilight times of dusk and dawn, he would prostrate himself before the stone figure, perhaps imagining his unreal son carrying out identical rites in other circular ruins downstream."

 

Round-leaved Sundew seems quite abundant in the very damp parts of the local moors. It has a very prostrate habit and can be difficult to photograph. I slightly propped this head up to isolate it against the sparkle of some standing water it was growing beside.

A trip to see the Chalkhill Blues at Barnack Hills and Holes NNR this week proved to be fruitful with plenty on the wing by 8.30am. Here are two males, not the best specimens i photographed but probably the better of the compositions i did, even though i was battling with the breeze and the occasional dogs who were interested in why i was lying prostrate on the grass paths!

Genista germanica (Fabaceae) 100 19

 

Genista germanica or German Greenweed is a plant species in the genus Genista belonging to the family Fabaceae.

This species grows in Central Europe, Western Europe and Southern Europe. These shrubs can be found in thickets, poor pastures, heaths and dry meadows, preferably on acidic soils, usually between 0–800 meters, rarely up to 1,400 meters above sea level.

Genista germanica can grow to 0.6 meters. These small perennial shrubs may have erect or prostrate stems, woody at the base, with robust simple or branched thorns. Only the young branches are green, slightly hairy. The deciduous leaves are oval-lanceolate, bright green and pubescent. The flowers are gathered in short racemes, the calyx is pubescent with lanceolate teeth, the corolla is yellow. They bloom in May and June. The fruits are ovoid legumes of about 10 mm, with 2 to 4 ovoid, brownish seeds.

 

From Wikipedia.

Faithfull Tibetan Buddhists prostrate themselves before entering the sacred Jokhang Temple in central Lhasa. For many Tibetans it is the most sacred and important temple in Tibet and people come from across the region, often by foot, to worship here.

Je crois que Carbone est amoureux du chat en pierre (voir plus bas) !

 

A propos de Carbone il est à la maison en ce moment, roulé en boule prostré sur le canapé, alors que ça fait des jours et des jours qu'il vit carrément dehors. Grosse inquiétude en raison de son insuffisance rénale jusqu'à ce que je réalise qu'il a plein de blessures sur la tête et qu'il a perdu son collier. Bon je suppose que le guerrier doit reprendre des forces.

 

I think Carbon is in love with the stone cat (see below)!

 

About Carbone he is at home right now, curled up prostrated on the sofa, while he was really living outdoor all these last days. Big concern because of his kidney failure until I realized he was full of injuries on the head and he lost his collar. Welle I guess the warrior needs to regain strength.

Found prostrate in Victoria Park this morning. I have mourned their passing with appropriate use of austere monochrome and heavy vignetting, while they wing their way to cloth heaven.
