Okay, one more. I think priests may be used to seeing people lying prostrate before the alter, but I doubt they see many folks laying flat on their back in the center aisle with a tripod splayed over them! That's what it took, though, to shoot this fisheye view of the cathedral ceiling. You can just imagine what it was like for the artists who had to place all those tiny pieces of colored glass up there. As I mentioned in my first post, all the color you see here is mosaic -- there is no paint in the interior of the cathedral. The central dome is 143 feet above the floor, while the two domes to either side are both more than 90 feet high. This view of the ceiling spans over 200 feet, or 2/3's the length of a football field.

Blueberries are a widely distributed and widespread group of perennial flowering plants with blue or purple berries. They are classified in the section Cyanococcus within the genus Vaccinium. Vaccinium also includes cranberries, bilberries, huckleberries and Madeira blueberries. Commercial blueberries—both wild (lowbush) and cultivated (highbush)—are all native to North America. The highbush varieties were introduced into Europe during the 1930s.
Blueberries are usually prostrate shrubs that can vary in size from 10 centimeters (4 inches) to 4 meters (13 feet) in height. In commercial production of blueberries, the species with small, pea-size berries growing on low-level bushes are known as "lowbush blueberries" (synonymous with "wild"), while the species with larger berries growing on taller, cultivated bushes are known as "highbush blueberries". Canada is the leading producer of lowbush blueberries, while the United States produces some 40% of the world supply of highbush blueberries.
Os mirtilos são um grupo amplamente distribuído e difundido de plantas perenes com bagas azuis ou roxas. Eles são classificados na seção Cyanococcus dentro do gênero Vaccinium. Vaccinium também inclui cranberries, mirtilos, mirtilos e mirtilos da Madeira. Os mirtilos comerciais - tanto selvagens (lowbush) quanto cultivados (highbush) - são todos nativos da América do Norte. As variedades highbush foram introduzidas na Europa durante a década de 1930.
Os mirtilos são geralmente arbustos prostrados que podem variar em tamanho de 10 centímetros (4 polegadas) a 4 metros (13 pés) de altura. Na produção comercial de mirtilos, as espécies com bagas pequenas do tamanho de ervilhas que crescem em arbustos de baixo nível são conhecidas como "mirtilos de arbusto baixo" (sinônimo de "selvagem"), enquanto as espécies com bagas maiores crescendo em arbustos mais altos e cultivados são conhecidas como "mirtilos highbush." O Canadá é o principal produtor de mirtilos lowbush, enquanto os Estados Unidos produzem cerca de 40% da oferta mundial de mirtilos highbush.
Los arándanos son un grupo ampliamente distribuido y extenso de plantas con flores perennes con bayas azules o moradas. Se clasifican en la sección Cyanococcus dentro del género Vaccinium. Vaccinium también incluye arándanos, arándanos, moras y arándanos de Madeira. Los arándanos comerciales, tanto silvestres (lowbush) como cultivados (highbush), son nativos de América del Norte. Las variedades highbush se introdujeron en Europa durante la década de 1930.
Los arándanos suelen ser arbustos postrados que pueden variar en tamaño desde 10 centímetros (4 pulgadas) hasta 4 metros (13 pies) de altura. En la producción comercial de arándanos, las especies con bayas pequeñas del tamaño de un guisante que crecen en arbustos bajos se conocen como "arándanos de arbusto bajo" (sinónimo de "silvestres"), mientras que las especies con bayas más grandes que crecen en arbustos cultivados más altos se conocen los "arándanos highbush". Canadá es el principal productor de arándanos lowbush, mientras que Estados Unidos produce alrededor del 40% del suministro mundial de arándanos highbush.
Bosbessen zijn een wijdverspreide en wijdverbreide groep van meerjarige bloeiende planten met blauwe of paarse bessen. Ze zijn ingedeeld in de sectie Cyanococcus binnen het geslacht Vaccinium. Vaccinium bevat ook veenbessen, bosbessen, bosbessen en madeira-bosbessen. Commerciële bosbessen - zowel wild (lowbush) als gekweekt (highbush) - zijn allemaal inheems in Noord-Amerika. De highbush-variëteiten werden in de jaren dertig in Europa geïntroduceerd.
Bosbessen zijn meestal uitgestrekte struiken die in grootte kunnen variëren van 10 centimeter (4 inch) tot 4 meter (13 voet) hoog. Bij de commerciële productie van bosbessen staan de soorten met kleine bessen ter grootte van een erwt die op lage struiken groeien bekend als "lowbush bosbessen" (synoniem met "wild"), terwijl de soorten met grotere bessen die op hogere, gecultiveerde struiken groeien bekend zijn als "highbush bosbessen." Canada is de grootste producent van blauwe bosbessen, terwijl de Verenigde Staten zo'n 40% van de wereldvoorraad aan bosbessen produceren.
I mirtilli sono un gruppo ampiamente distribuito e diffuso di piante da fiore perenni con bacche blu o viola. Sono classificati nella sezione Cyanococcus all'interno del genere Vaccinium. Il vaccino comprende anche mirtilli rossi, mirtilli, mirtilli e mirtilli di Madeira. I mirtilli commerciali, sia selvatici (lowbush) che coltivati (highbush), sono tutti originari del Nord America. Le varietà highbush furono introdotte in Europa negli anni '30.
I mirtilli sono solitamente arbusti prostrati che possono variare di dimensioni da 10 centimetri (4 pollici) a 4 metri (13 piedi) di altezza. Nella produzione commerciale di mirtilli, le specie con bacche piccole e grandi come un pisello che crescono su cespugli a bassa quota sono conosciute come "mirtilli a cespuglio basso" (sinonimo di "selvatico"), mentre sono note le specie con bacche più grandi che crescono su cespugli coltivati più alti come "mirtilli highbush". Il Canada è il principale produttore di mirtilli a cespuglio basso, mentre gli Stati Uniti producono circa il 40% della fornitura mondiale di mirtilli a cespuglio alto.
Heidelbeeren sind eine weit verbreitete und weit verbreitete Gruppe mehrjähriger Blütenpflanzen mit blauen oder violetten Beeren. Sie werden in die Sektion Cyanococcus innerhalb der Gattung Vaccinium eingeordnet. Vaccinium umfasst auch Preiselbeeren, Heidelbeeren, Heidelbeeren und Madeira-Heidelbeeren. Kommerzielle Blaubeeren – sowohl wilde (Lowbush) als auch kultivierte (Highbush) – sind alle in Nordamerika beheimatet. Die Highbush-Sorten wurden in den 1930er Jahren in Europa eingeführt.
Blaubeeren sind normalerweise niederliegende Sträucher, die in der Größe von 10 Zentimetern (4 Zoll) bis 4 Meter (13 Fuß) Höhe variieren können. In der kommerziellen Produktion von Blaubeeren sind die Arten mit kleinen, erbsengroßen Beeren, die auf niedrigen Büschen wachsen, als "Lowbush Blueberries" (synonym mit "wild") bekannt, während die Arten mit größeren Beeren, die auf höheren, kultivierten Büschen wachsen, bekannt sind als "highbush Blaubeeren." Kanada ist der führende Produzent von Lowbush-Heidelbeeren, während die Vereinigten Staaten etwa 40 % des weltweiten Angebots an Highbush-Heidelbeeren produzieren.

Veronica persica is an annual or winter annual herb that reproduces from seed.
Its cotyledons are triangular with truncated bases. The short-stalked leaves are broadly ovate with coarsely serrated margins, and measure one to two centimetres (0.4 to 0.8 in) long. The leaves are paired on the lower stem and are alternately arranged on the upper parts. The plant has weak stems that form a dense, prostrate groundcover. The tips of stems often grow upright.
A couple of flowering Veronica persica
The flowers are roughly one centimetre (0.4 in) wide[4] and are sky-blue with dark stripes and white centers. They are zygomorphic, having only one vertical plane of symmetry. They are solitary on long, slender, hairy stalks in the leaf axils.
The seeds are transversely rugose and measure between one and two millimetres (0.04 and 0.08 in) long. There are five to 10 seeds per locule in the fruit.
Veronica persica can be distinguished from similar species by its heart-shaped fruit with two widely-separated lobes.

Voilà Carbone est rentré après 5 jours en clinique (et 3 la semaine passée) sous perfusion (insuffisance rénale).
Il ne mange toujours pas beaucoup mais il est assez actif (il ne reste pas prostré comme avant). Au moins j'arrive à lui donner ses médicaments (c'est un combat mais jusqu'ici je gagne). Là il est perché sur le capot de ma voiture. Normalement il n'a pas le droit de sortir, mais vu son insistance et vu qu'il fait assez beau j'ai cédé. Sur les photos ci-dessous vous pouvez voir ses belles tonsures aux pattes et à la queue. S'il n'y a pas de catastrophe avant il retourne vendredi faire une prise de sang. Pour ma part je suis très stressée.
Well Carbone came home after 5 days in the clinic (and 3 last week) on a drip (kidney failure)
He still doesn’t eat much but is quite active (he is not prostrated as before). At least I managed to give him his medication (it's a struggle but so far I win). There he is on the hood of my car. Normally he is not allowed to go out, but given his insistence and the quite good weather I yielded. In the photos below you can see his beautiful tonsures at the paws and tail. If there is no disaster before he will go on Friday to a blood test. For my part I am very stressed.

Not a day passes without a flashback of these places. Not a reminiscence goes without reliving the urge to go back again and again insha Allah.
Over 2 million Muslims will prostrate toward the direction of this House and see it for themselves over the course of next 10 days insha Allah. Their Host is none but their Creator – the Almighty of the heavens and the earth – the One Allah ‘Azza wa Jal.
May Allah Sub’hana wa Ta’ala guide and help His guests, fill their hearts with righteousness, accept their good efforts, forgive the conscious and the unconscious errors, and grant them all the Hajj Mabroor, for which His Messenger (ﷺ) has taught us, “there is no reward except Paradise”. (Jami` at-Tirmidhi 933)
These 10 days are of enormous significance for those who are not going to perform Hajj too, which can be understood from the words of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ), “There are no days during which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allah than these days.” When his companions asked at this, “Not even Jihad in the cause of Allah?” Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) replied, “Not even Jihad in the cause of Allah, unless a man goes out with himself and his wealth and does not bring anything back.” (Ibn Majah book 7, Hadith 1799).
Allahumma a’inni ‘ala zhikrik, wa shukrik, wa ‘husni ‘ibadatik. Amin.

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.

During the February 2011 earthquake in Christchurch, New Zealand the statue of Robert Falcon Scott broke across the ankles and most of the statue came crashing to the ground. To commemorate a 100 years of association with Antarctica Christchurch council has laid out for viewing the statue in a prostrate position. I was lucky to encounter the statue before it was put into it's glass display enclosure.

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.[

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
