À la fin du XIXe siècle, les dames de la Belle Époque venaient boire un thé ou manger dans le socle d'un majestueux bateau de pêche, perché à un peu plus de six mètres au-dessus des eaux. Avec son kiosque typique, il devint alors l'une des escales les plus prisées des Niçois et des touristes.
En 1941, le bateau de pêche ayant subi des dommages, l'architecte René Livieri et son client décidèrent d'offrir une nouvelle vie à ce lieu en donnant naissance au Plongeoir. Grâce à Livieri, trois plates-formes somptueuses, dans le plus pur style Art déco, se dressèrent alors face à la Grande Bleue, permettant aux jeunes de s'exercer au plongeon.

At the end of the nineteenth century, the ladies of the Belle Epoque came to drink tea or eat in the base of a majestic fishing boat, perched a little over six meters above the water. With its typical kiosk, it became one of the most popular stopovers of Nice and tourists.
In 1941, the damaged fishing boat, the architect René Livieri and his client decided to give a new life to this place by giving birth to the Plongeoir. Thanks to Livieri, three sumptuous platforms, in the purest Art Deco style, stood up against the Big Blue, allowing young people to practice diving

When the sins of my father
Weigh down in my soul
And the pain of my mother
Will not let me go
Well, I know there can come fire from the sky
To refine the purest of kings
And even though
I know this fire brings me pain
Even so
And just the same
Make it rain
Make it rain down, Lord
At the end of the nineteenth century, the ladies of the Belle Epoque came to drink tea or eat in the base of a majestic fishing boat, perched a little over six meters above the water. With its typical kiosk, it became one of the most popular stopovers of Nice and tourists.
Below the facade was a reserve - which gave its name to the place - oysters and crustaceans in basins communicating with the sea.
In 1941, the damaged fishing boat, the architect René Livieri and his client decided to give a new life to this place by giving birth to the Plongeoir. Thanks to Livieri, three sumptuous platforms, in the purest Art Deco style, stood up against the Big Blue, allowing young people to practice diving
On a May morning, the sun rises near Cancale in Brittany, France. The sunrise paints its sky colors on the water. Tranquility at its purest. Only the water sloshes around the oyster and seaweed farms on the mudflats.
Only ten minutes later, the magic is gone, the colors of the sunrise have faded into a glistening white. The first tractors with trailers roar noisily through the mud of the low tide. The Oyster farmers take advantage of the receding water to work in the oyster beds.
An einem Maimorgen geht die Sonne bei Cancale in der Bretagne auf. Der Sonnenaufgang malt seine Himmelsfarben aufs Wasser. Alles es still. Nur das Wasser schwappt leise um die den Austern- und Tangzuchtanlagen im Watt.
Zehn Minuten später ist die Magie verflogen, sind die Farben des Sonnenaufgangs in ein gleißendes Himmelsweiß verblichen. Die ersten Traktoren mit Anhängern brausen lärmend durch den Matsch der Ebbe. Die Austernzüchter nutzen den Wasserrückgang, um in den Austernbänken zu arbeiten.

Peasant Woman: Well, how’d you become king, then?
[Angelic music plays…]
King Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I am your king.
Dennis: Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.
Arthur: Be quiet!
Dennis: You can’t expect to wield supreme executive power just ’cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!
Arthur: Shut up!
Dennis: I mean, if I went around saying I was an emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they’d put me away!
" I follow that beady sight. They allow me to see, The purest of the night. Your lips had always guide my move unknowingly, I obey your delicate brim. They allow me to prove that this world is not so grim. and learn to love the sinner For all that will remain is this twisted, Grim Grinner "

Sunset on Lake Annecy seen from the top of the Forclaz Pass, Haute Savoie, France
Also known as the “Blue Lake”, Lake Annecy (French: Lac d'Annecy), at the heart of the Savoy Alps, takes pride in being one of the cleanest and purest lakes in the world because of strict environmental regulations introduced in the 1960s.
It is the third largest lake in France, after the Lac du Bourget and Lac de Grand-Lieu, if the French part of Lake Geneva (which is also partly in Switzerland) is excluded.
Lake Annecy was formed 18,000 years ago, when large alpine glaciers melted. It owes its reputation to its extraordinary location, which has been the inspiration of many artists. The impressionist painter Paul Cézanne (1839-1906), inspired by the light that bathes the site and is reflected in the turquoise water, immortalised the lake with his renowned oil painting, Le Lac bleu (the Blue Lake) in 1896.
which one can see within its own purest portal of inner peace, to cultivate us all.
Another visit to Winterbourne House and Gardens!
This time I decided to do only macro, with all these gorgeous flowers, that are now blooming out in the sunny sunshine of summer.
And I must say; I am well pleased that I did choose to do some macro, with the two lenses I have in my photography kit: Nikon AF-S DX Micro NIKKOR 40mm f2.8G Lens and Tamron AF 16-300mm f3.5-6.3 Di II VC PZD Macro Lens for Nikon Camera!
I am exceptionally well pleased with my little 40mm Macro Lens on this one!
Many thanks for your lovely appreciation of compliments from you here, my good flickr friends !!!

The church at Salagon priory in Mane was built during the eleventh century from local limestone. It has all the hallmarks of Provençal Romanesque style, containing Corinthian-style columns decorated with acanthus leaves, as well as sculpted panels depicting people and animals. It also has a fifteenth-century wall painting which is the only surviving example of its type from this period.
The interior of the church is illuminated by six stained glass windows from the artist Aurélie Nemours. Installed in 1998, they bathe the church in a light which the artist describes as "the purest red". Salagon, together with Ganagobie monastery near Lurs, was listed as a historic monument in 1981.

Near Putaruru you can walk to the famous Blue Spring, which supplies around 70 per cent of New Zealand's bottled water.
Follow the Te Waihou Walkway to the famous Blue Spring, one of the purest water sources in the world.
Traveling alongside the Waihou River, the track winds through wetlands, across rolling pastures and past small waterfalls to the turquoise water of the spring.
Flowing at a rate of 42 cubic metres per minute (9240 gallons per minute), The Blue Spring could fill a six lane, 25 metre swimming pool in just over 12 minutes. It maintians a constant 11°C in every season.

Salar de Atacama (salt flat) is surrounded by mountains, has no drainage, and is one of the driest places on Earth. It is also the world’s largest and purest source of lithium. I was mesmerized by the salt flat’s subtle pastel colors, which were framed by the mountains and cloud filled azure blue sky.

Please, don't fave and run, you will get yourself blocked.
Australia has some pretty nice beaches, but it's hard to go past the Maldives for sheer paradisial bliss. I'm escaping our winter cold by imagining I'm back there. So, as a public service announcement, here's how it goes:
You have had a hard day relaxing on beaches of the purest white sand, swimming in crystal clear oceans waters of the most beautiful blues and greens, watching clouds float past and imagining what you see in them (I usually see animals, real & mythological, particularly dragons) , eating in sand-floored open-air restaurants where thongs (known as flip-flops in other parts of the world) are considered formal wear. Yet, after all that hard work. you are still expected to walk all the way out on the walkway to reach your villa sitting above the Indian Ocean. Luckily you only need enough energy to roll over the edge to be floating in the warm waters of the inner reef. But if that's too hard, your own little private pool on your villa deck is closer, and bonus - you can leave your cocktail within reach.
Just thought I'd warn you of the hard work involved if you were ever considering a trip to the Maldives. You are welcome :)
Hope everyone is having a great weekend !

“ I know you will never be a beautiful butterfly, but there is nothing wrong with being a beautiful moth. I never once saw a butterfly fly at night, but you … you will fly under the stars at night and under the clear blue skies by day. You will have the best of both worlds. Shine like the sunshine little caterpillar. Feast on my Tamarisk tree and on the yellowing leaves of my spent Summer roses and be the best moth you can be!” - AP
Such is the good advice I gave to this beautiful caterpillar … ah, but he is much wiser than me! He understands his place in the world. There is nothing I can further teach him other than confirm his suspicions that I am a silly creature … ; 0)) He told me that the female moth of his species does not fly at all and they only eat during this stage of their development. Their time is short and their purpose is to procreate. I discovered that they are considered a pest to cultivated gardens so I am very happy that they found their way to my wildlife garden in their droves. Here they are safe and free to do their own thing and ensure the survival of their species. It is moments such as this when I feel most at one with the world …

EVERGLOW - COLDPLAY
I hope you will always bring the sunshine with you
the warmth of your smile that reaches
the dusty forgotten corners of my tangled heart
where melancholy tends to linger;
erasing all that life and love has taught me
please mute the inner voice that always preaches
I hope you will perchance to dream a little
and meet me somewhere in the middle
surround me with pink fallen roses
their petals clinging tenderly to my tears
and let the big band play a tune upon my soul
pull my heartstrings taut as those upon an Irish fiddle
I hope that I will always find you there
standing close beside me come rain or shine
let our shadows be as one
gathering in the golden hour
fill us up with so much light
that the darkness will envy that you are mine
I hope that I will be forever
the part of you that you sought so long
and you will be the missing part
that once I only imagined existed
in the deepest and most sacred places
those spaces between my evening song
I hope that we will always be
united in every sense of the word
that the darkness will be overcome
that part of me that remains even now
when I have so much light surrounding me
when my soul is free and no longer
a caged and frightened bird
I hope that we will last the distance
the road less travelled can be hard and cold
but with you beside me and my hand in yours
we can conquer any mountain we desire to climb
feel safe in the knowledge that if we want to
we can spin the sunshine of our former broken lives
into the purest gold.

Exotic Hibiscus 'Sweet Pink' Double petal .
Low light hand held shot
colours changing hibiscus
“In nature there are no colors or shades. Only hues. The flower of the hibiscus is the purest pink or red I know, as if it draws its color from a divine source.” – Toni Morrison
The Main Chapel of the Basilica Santa Croce is inspired by the purest Gothic architecture, with a strong vertical thrust, underlined by the umbrella ribs of the vault and the extremely long and narrow mullioned windows with two lights. The frescoes that decorate it are the Stories of the Invention of the True Cross, a tribute to the name of the church, painted by Agnolo Gaddi around 1380.
While You Were Dreaming
Have a great weekend my friends :)
While you were dreaming,
I gazed upon your brow,
Tucked away from cold of night,
You're lay beside me now,
And as we lie and rest our heads,
On pillows of purest white,
The moon smiled through the window,
And softly bathed you in its light.
