The Haze is a recurring annual problem caused by illegal slash-and-burn agriculture on the island of Sumatra in Indonesia.
To pass on without pause is impossible and to continue after purely mental applause is unsatisfying: some real tribute must be paid. Photography, to many of its addicts, is a convenient and simple means of discharging these ever-recurring debts to the visual world :-)

heath or heathland is a shrubland habitat found on mainly infertile acidic soils, characterised by open, low growing woody vegetation, often dominated by plants of the Ericaceae. It is similar to moorland, but is generally warmer and drier.
Heaths are widespread worldwide. They form extensive and highly diverse communities across Australia in humid and sub-humid areas. Fire regimes with recurring burning are required for the maintenance of the heathlands. Even more diverse though less widespread heath communities occur in Southern Africa. Extensive heath communities can also be found in California, New Caledonia, central Chile and along the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. In addition to these extensive heath areas, the vegetation type is also found in scattered locations across all continents, except Antarctica.

Le Musée historique du Sénégal à Gorée
The house is built in a circle. If you go from room to room, you eventually come back to where you started from. What a meaningful architecture for a historical museum...;)
This one is dedicated to Tom Petty. His music was always easy to listen to and I think his attitude was generally uncomplicated and straightforward. One recurring message in his lyrics is that life is not simple... it is full of ups and downs, but you need to keep moving forward. Learn to fly, even if the crash landings can be painful.
Sun sets, we wander through a foreign town
Strangely, there's nobody else around
See you open your dress and show me your tits
On the swing set at the old playground
And when you go away, I still see you
The sunlight on your face in the rearview
Sun sets, I want to hear your voice
A love that nobody could destroy
Took photographs like brautigan's
Book covers that we both adored
And when you go away, I still see you
The sunlight on your face in my rearview
This always happens to me this way
Recurring visions of such sweet days
And when you go away, I still see you
The sunlight on your face in my rearview
When you go away, I still see you
The sunlight on your face in my rearview

Útil versus bello. Una polémica recurrente en la arquitectura contemporánea, donde parece que estos términos han empezado a excluirse mutuamente. Sin embargo, durante siglos existieron espléndidos ejemplos de arquitectura utilitaria que no renunciaban ni a la belleza ni a la estética, especialmente en el periodo clásico. La Cisterna Basílica (Yerebatan Sarnıcı) de Estambul es un ejemplo perfecto. Concebida para almacenar agua potable —que llegaba desde el acueducto de Valente y otras fuentes—, podía albergar hasta 80.000 m³. Fue construida en el año 532 d.C., por orden del emperador Justiniano I. Desde el exterior nada anuncia su presencia, pero al descender nos envuelve una escena inesperada: un bosque de 336 columnas de mármol que sostienen una bóveda de ladrillo. El juego de luces, los reflejos en el agua, la penumbra... todo contribuye a crear una atmósfera de misterio casi sobrenatural. Parte de su encanto reside en su imperfección: muchas columnas son recicladas de templos antiguos, y sus capiteles variados aportan carácter y humanidad al espacio. En la penumbra dorada de la imagen, las columnas parecen repetirse hasta el infinito, reflejadas en el agua quieta. El visitante —pequeño, casi invisible— se pierde entre sombras y luces como si caminara por una ciudad subterránea fuera del tiempo.

Useful versus beautiful. A recurring debate in contemporary architecture, where these concepts often seem mutually exclusive. Yet for centuries, functional buildings did not shy away from beauty — especially during the classical period. Istanbul’s Basilica Cistern (Yerebatan Sarnıcı) is a perfect example. Built in 532 AD by order of Emperor Justinian I, it was designed to store drinking water brought from the Valens Aqueduct and other sources, with a capacity of up to 80,000 m³. From the outside, nothing hints at its presence. But upon descending, we are met with a surprising scene: a forest of 336 marble columns holding up a brick vault. The play of lights, the reflections in the water, the shadows... everything contributes to a magical, almost otherworldly atmosphere. Part of its beauty lies in its imperfection: many columns were repurposed from ancient temples, and their diverse capitals give the space a unique, human character. In the golden gloom of the image, the columns seem to repeat endlessly, mirrored on the still water. The visitor —small, almost invisible— wanders among shadows and light, as if walking through a timeless underground city.
I picked 'blue' and 'flower' from the list for this weeks Macro Mondays 'Pick Two' theme. Tried a couple of other combinations but liked this one best.
I threw a couple of handfuls of wildflower seeds in my garden a few years ago and this beautiful nigella is one of the many recurring results.
I worked out the perfect way to get my daughter to let me photograph her-take he on a driving lesson! Yesterday we went for along drive to the country to give her a run on the Freeway and get a feel for the speed of the car. I would be lying if it didn't result in white knuckles but it was a good day out! I loved the repetition of the trees here and the Sol 45 gives it a dream like feel.
My recurring dream at the moment is that I won't be able to get on the plane tomorrow for our planned holiday!
Hoping all goes well and I make interstate for a 10 day break, I will be mostly off-line but will try to pop in from time to time.
So take care and stay safe my friends.

Street photography from Glasgow, Scotland.
Defying space and time to bring you a previously unpublished shot from one of my Street Photography Workshops in Glasgow during September 2018. I had just been talking about the concept of having recurring themes in your work in order to help you out when you are losing inspiration. One of my Flickr albums being 'Pink and Blue' is just an example of this. Enjoy!
For some reason many of my contacts did not see this photo in their home page. Hope it's just an isolate incident, not a recurring event.

"The vision recurs; the eastern sun has a second rise; history repeats her tale unconsciously, and goes off into a mystic rhyme; ages are prototypes of other ages, and the winding course of time brings us round to the same spot again."

Weather Can Change Rapidly in the Northern Adriatic and Especially at Cape Kamenjak Where the Winds Easily Swell the Sea whose Waters Are Deep up to the Shore
After Bora wind and cold and a couple of sunny days, an Atlantic front is preceded by southern currents that channel into the Adriatic Sea.
Thus the other recurring wind of these areas is generated, which is the Jugo (Scirocco in Italian) coming from the S/E or S/SE.
It is a wind originating from opposite currents to those that activate the bora, it is a matter of humid and mild Mediterranean or North African air masses.
What the two winds have in common is that the Jugo also has an orographic component, felt in a particular way along the Croatian coast on the mainland which from Dalmatia goes up towards the Kvarner, with characteristics that at times recall the bora as the currents are channeled between the dinaric gates the sea channels and the islands, thus generating not only an isobaric winds, whose direction of origin is generally varied (following the disposition of the isobars which are constantly changing), but also orographic, therefore falling from the Dinaric Alps with a fixed direction with irregular and drying gusts, which are, sometimes, strong and rabid, being able to reach 90/100kmph, exceptionally 120kmph, in some areas, especially along the Velebitski Kanal/Velebit Channel and, less accentuated, in Kvarnerić, between Otok Cres and Otok Krk.
It is therefore a recurring wind and for this reason it has a name, while the winds caused only by LP isobars, however continuous and intense, often change direction and are therefore defined only according to the quadrant of the wind rose from which they temporarily come.
In this case/shot the southern currents were not very intense and the wind was only moderate, generating normal waves for this area, i.e. about 2/2.5 meters in height, but in case of stormy situations (with very narrow isobars, as in the storm of Jugo/Scirocco of 29 October 2018) the waves on this cape can reach 6/7 meters in height, taking along the entire Adriatic from South to North for hundreds of kilometers and resulting in the place where the waves are most highest of all the small Adriatic.
Furthermore, Cape Kamenjak is quite distant from the islands and the Dalmatian coast, therefore the coastal orographic effects are felt much less and more the isobaric ones with the direction of origin more often oriented from S/SE instead of S/E, although this is also a form of channeling, i.e. the currents are channeled into the Adriatic, as if it were a wide channel and the Adriatic has an axis from S/SE towards N/NW, the resulting wind is therefore continuous and humid, sometimes with high average speeds, but without significant gusts, favoring regular swell.
The recurring wind from S/E or S/SE which mainly affects the central-northern Adriatic is a partially isobaric and partially orographic wind, this means that almost all the Atlantic perturbations that approach these areas activate (almost always) the jugo and much more rarely winds from the full South or South-West, which are only isobaric and therefore of short duration and non-recurring, generally present when the front passes and the isobars bend towards the west.
"The Boys of Summer" is a song released in 1984 by Eagles vocalist and drummer Don Henley, with lyrics written by Henley and music composed by Mike Campbell of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.
The lyrics appear to be about the passing of youth and entering middle age, with the nostalgic theme of "summer love" and reminiscence of a past relationship. In a 1987 interview with Rolling Stone, Henley explained that the song is about aging and questioning the past—a recurring theme in Henley's lyrics.
The song's title is borrowed from Roger Kahn's 1972 acclaimed book about the Brooklyn Dodgers, which in turn borrowed it from a famous Dylan Thomas poem.
El título de la canción es una referencia al libro de 1972 "The Boys of Summer" de Roger Kahn. El libro narra la historia de los Brooklyn Dodgers de 1952. Kahn se mantuvo en contacto con los miembros del equipo durante 20 años y en el libro describe como sus vidas cambiaron con el paso del tiempo. La canción trata sobre la brevedad de la juventud y la transición a la adultez. Así mismo también narra la historia de un "amor de verano" y como quedó en el pasado. En una entrevista en 1987 con Rolling Stone, Henley explicó que la canción era sobre envejecer y cuestionar el pasado.

Oh me! Oh life! of the questions of these recurring,
Of the endless trains of the faithless, of cities fill’d with the foolish,
Of myself forever reproaching myself, (for who more foolish than I, and who more faithless?)
Of eyes that vainly crave the light, of the objects mean, of the struggle ever renew’d,
Of the poor results of all, of the plodding and sordid crowds I see around me,
Of the empty and useless years of the rest, with the rest me intertwined,
The question, O me! so sad, recurring—What good amid these, O me, O life?
Answer.
That you are here—that life exists and identity,
That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse.
Sulphur Tuft fungi (in the USA the spelling in common use is Sulfur Tuft) are gregarious and tend to appear in large groups so tightly packed that the caps are unable to expand regularly. The tuft shown on the left is one such example; these jostling fruitbodies were growing beside the stump of a dead conifer, their mycellium having invaded the root system.
Displays of Sulphur Tufts can recur on large stumps for two or three years in succession before the timber is reduced to its hard core of lignin, at which point other lignin-eating fungi move in to finish it off.
Very common in Britain and Ireland, Hypholoma fasciculare occurs also across most of mainland Europe, where it is most prevalent in northern and central countries. This wood-rotting species is common also in North America. (first-nature.com) Heusden-Zolder, Belgium
The non-breeding (hence not-spotted) Spotted Sandpiper in this image was a recurring presence along a section of the Ottawa River. Unlike other active breeders of the species, who occupy grassier and less accessible areas of the shoreline, this creature was out and about in places that were relatively easy to get to.
The main concerns for this bird, bobbing along the water’s edge digging up insects, was the Merlins and Cooper’s Hawks that patrol the River. It tended to stay in areas with some cover along the shore, either in the form of trees shading the area or deeper grasses. People, on the other hand, as long as they were horizontal and shaded, seemed less of a bother.
I tended to go out early, as I had in this image. The light is more delicate but the bird more intent on eating. Also, there are likely fewer distractions from other people.
Every season the water levels on the Ottawa fluctuate wildly, and it is hard to attract and retain shorebirds under those circumstances. The birds either aren’t drawn to the area or cannot get established. The fall tends to be the time that works, because of the spring melts upriver. That means no breeding plumage, but that seems a small price to pay.
From early times the main source of income in the town of Sheringham on the North Norfolk coast has been fishing. In the late 1800s there were upwards of 200 fishing boats operating from here. As the fishing industry flourished the loss of life at sea increased. These recurring tragedies led the wealthy Upcher family of Sheringham Hall to donate money to enable lifeboats to be built. Their generosity founded the first lifeboat service in Sheringham. In 1838 the first boathouse (pictured) for the then private service was built to house the Augusta. The lifeboat service was joined and eventually taken over by the newly named Royal National Lifeboat Institution in 1867.
The surrounding buildings are typically faced with Norfolk flint and edged with brick.

With its work at Amcor complete, CN L581 departs for Appleton with a short train of covered hoppers. The sun is doing its best to poke through the clouds that have come out here in New London. A recurring theme of my chase would be getting either barely cloudwrecked or squeezing in a sucker hole at almost all of the 10+ locations I was able to shoot them at. But with that leader, who could be upset?
Apologies for the recurring snow theme but I haven't taken much else recently. I was out walking in the snow recently and I spotted this tiny Goldcrest trying to feed in a snow-laden pine tree. Because the tops of every branch were totally covered in snow the Goldcrest could only feed by feeding underneath the branches. He was doing a lot of acrobatic hanging and hovering. This particular shot captured his wings and tail spread beautifully as he hovered. I keep referring to this Goldcrest as "he" because in my other shots I can see orange feathers interspersed in the yellow crown stripe, which only adult males have. I personally find Goldcrests quite difficult to photograph as they rarely stop moving and tend to remain obscured by the vegetation they are feeding among. So I was delighted to catch this one with fresh snow, pine and a blue sky. Incidentally the shutter speed was only 1/1000 of a second yet it has almost frozen the wing feathers. Yet others in the sequence on the same shutter speed show the wings as a complete blur.
"Pick up a sunflower and count the florets running into its centre, or count the spiral scales of a pine cone or a pineapple, running from its bottom up its sides to the top, and you will find an extraordinary truth: recurring numbers, ratios and proportions."
Charles Jencks
Part of the beauty of having sunflowers growing in my garden is watching the minute changes developing every day.
"To those who think as we do, all things themselves are dancing: they come and offer their hands and laugh and flee- and come back. Everything goes, everything comes back; eternally rolls the wheel of being. Everything dies, everything blossoms again; eternally runs the year of being. Everything breaks, everything is joined anew; eternally the same house of being is built. Everything parts, everything greets every other thing again; eternally the ring of being remains faithful to itself. In every Now, being begins; round every Here rolls the sphere There, The center is everywhere. Bent is the path of eternity." ...
"A long twilight limped before me, a sadness, weary to death, drunken with death speaking with a yawning mouth. 'Eternally recurs the man of whom you are weary, the small man' - thus yawned my sadness and dragged its feet and could not go to sleep. Man's earth turned into a cave for me, its chest sunken; all that is living became human mold and bones and musty paste to me. My sighing sat on all human tombs and could not longer get up; my sighing and questioning croaked and gagged and gnawed and wailed by day and night: 'Alas, man recurs eternally! The small man recurs eternally!'"
I appreciate that, for many of you, snow is a recurring inconvenience, but when you live in Sydney, Australia, it is something of a novelty and I couldn't resist exploring its photographic possibilities.

Sometimes we feel like prisoners without knowing how to get out of the loop of a recurring situation.
If we look from another perspective we will realize that this prison is made of a glass, so fine that with a click it can be broken ...
A veces nos sentimos prisioneros sin saber como salir del bucle de una situación que se repite.
Si miramos desde otra perspectiva nos daremos cuenta de que esa prisión es de un cristal, tan fino que con un chasquido se puede quebrar...
18-April-2022: despite the now recurring acute-dry phases, the water to irrigate the fields will not be lacking... At least for the moment.
The area is however quite rainy, between 1300/1400mm/year of the high plain to 2700mm of Piancavallo Plateau, the only pre-alpine ski resort in Friuli, sheltered by the first grassy mountain ridge in the background and at the foot of Monte Cavallo which is immediately beyond the nearby border with Veneto and is part of the Belluno Pre-Alps/Left Piave Dolomites.
Here it rains especially in autumn with the frequent presence of currents from the South at high altitude and South/East in the lower layers, directly from the Adriatic Sea, which, loaded with a lot of humidity, collide with the mountain range in the photo, which takes off directly from the Pordenone Plain, slowing down and exacerbating the intensity and continuity of rainfalls.
On the Piancavallo plateau, peaks of 700mm were reached in 24h (!!!), especially between October and November.
The aquifers therefore, in one way or another, for the moment, receive water.
So, the main problem of drought in Friuli (and in the rest of my photographic area) are not the sources of drinking and for agriculture water, but the wild flora and fauna that are not used to being without water for months, with an impoverished and increasingly overheated soil.
Four boys from Liverpool changed the orbit of our lives with a new style, inspiring future generations with melodies where love was a recurring theme. This was not enough to stop political and religious polarization, or put an end to prejudice and social imbalance on this little wild planet. But was enough to indicate that there is another path, which we use to find in a dream. And which can be real. The most incredible thing is, the dream is not over. A delicate song from The Beatles appears with Paul McCartney's effort to enchant us now. Now and Then.

This image comes from a night of gallivanting about San Francisco also aiming to shoot some scenes before the return of the new and improved Bay Lights. When I caught the first glimpse of the bay after turning down Embarcadero Rd., I knew it was now or never with this thin radiation fog. So, that meant scrambling to a decent spot and getting the shutter open.
It didn't stay like this for long, I had a couple different creepy people approach me for very suspect reasons, and even got a nice parking ticket. All recurring aspects of this avocation, unfortunately, as many of you know.
Anyhow, thanks for your support!

That Philipp II is back. That Alexander ('the Great') will be let loose. That democracies and republics will be abolished and replaced by 'empire'. That foreign worlds will be conquered. That politics become again 'religion'. And that history is going backwards.
