It was very windy when we went to see the Meoto Iwa (Wedded Rocks) at the Futamiokitama Shrine, located in Ise, Mie Prefecture, Japan. According to the Shinto religion, the rocks represent the union of the creator kami, Izanagi and Izanami. The rocks, therefore, celebrate the union in marriage of man and woman. They are joined by a shimenawa (a heavy rope of rice straw) and are considered sacred by worshipers of the shrine.
I placed the tripod at a spot that was protected from the winds, and took 11 minutes worth of long exposure images using an ND filter. Blending those images result in this silky smooth water surface -- all the waves from the gusty wind got smoothed out. The rope between the rocks moved and was blurry, so I blended the rope in from a short exposure image.
I blended 22 long exposure JPG images into a single image, blended the ropes from a short exposure image, processed a balanced and a realistic HDR photo from that, blended them selectively, carefully adjusted the color balance and curves, and desaturated the image. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

The works representing mythological figures.
Drawing on information from the excavation and stylistic comparisons, the pavement has been dated to the first half or middle of the 2nd century AD. A deeper examination of the pavement during its lifting and restoration allowed for an understanding of the construction techniques and the successive phases of installation of its different segments. While the ensemble was realised in situ, in opus tessellatum, the circular medallion, created in opus vermiculatum using miniscule elements, was composed within a workshop upon a terracotta base (the emblema technique) and then inserted into a space left empty in the centre of the shield. The border decorated with a guilloche was added at a third stage in order to camouflage the join between the shield and the emblema. By identifying the material used for the medallion and the guilloche, we can say that the creation of the panel and its insertion were carried out by the same team.
Représentant l'archipel du Japon avec ces pierres noires désormais posées sur l'eau, ce jardin nous entraîne dans une poétique méditation sur le paysage. Fumiaki Takano a ensuite inventé, en lien avec le grand maître japonais un très beau projet circulaire, enserrant l'œuvre de Shodo Suzuki, en multipliant par trois la surface des miroir d'eau dans lesquelles se reflètent les nuages.
This work represents an abstract face created by fast and instinctive black ink lines and stains, which form a dynamic and emotional image, enhancing spontaneity without adhering to detailed realism.

Este painel de azulejos, exposto no Museu Nacional do Azulejo, representa Santo Antão, um dos primeiros eremitas e fundador do monaquismo cristão. A imagem destaca o santo com os seus atributos tradicionais: o cajado com a cruz tau e o livro das escrituras, símbolos de sabedoria e fé. Ao fundo, pode-se observar o porco, frequentemente associado ao santo como protetor dos animais e curador de doenças. Este exemplo reflete a riqueza artística da azulejaria portuguesa nos séculos XVI e XVII, conjugando simbolismo religioso e mestria técnica.
El Manneken Pis ([ˌmɑnəkə(m) ˈpɪs] en neerlandés; ‘hombrecito que orina’) es una estatua de bronce de 65.5 centímetros situada en el centro histórico de Bruselas (Bélgica) Representa a un niño pequeño desnudo orinando dentro del cuenco de la fuente. Fue diseñada por un escultor de Brabante llamado Jérôme Duquesnoy el Viejo y fue colocada en su sitial en 1618 o 1619. Junto con el Atomium y la Grand Place es uno de los símbolos de Bruselas y una de sus atracciones turísticas principales, simbolizando el espíritu independiente de sus habitantes.
Había ya una estatua parecida de piedra a mediados del siglo XV, quizás ya desde 1388 (fecha de la primera mención hallada en los archivos de la catedral de Santa Gúdula), que fue robada en varias ocasiones. En 1619 fue reemplazada por una estatuilla de bronce hecha por el escultor barroco franco-flamenco Jérôme Duquesnoy el Viejo, que la situó sobre una columna de seis pies tallada por Daniel Raessens, siendo sustituida por el actual nicho en estilo rococó, en 1770. Los bruselenses protegieron la estatuilla durante el asedio y bombardeo de la ciudad por los franceses en 1695. Una inscripción quedó escrita bajo la estatua después del asalto francés: In petra exaltavit me, et nunc exaltavi caput meum super inimicos meos (El Señor me levantó sobre una roca, y ahora elevo mi cabeza sobre mis enemigos). La estatua actual es una reproducción de la original, que unos vándalos robaron allá por los años 1960, siendo objeto de noticias de prensa que contribuyeron a dar a la estatua y al monumento cierta fama internacional. Recuperada la original algún tiempo después, lo que dio lugar a una nueva información mediática, por fin se depositó junto a otra copia en bronce dorado del siglo XVII en el Musée de la ville de Bruselas.
es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manneken_Pis
Manneken Pis ( [ˌmɑnəkə(m) ˈpɪs] ; Dutch for 'Little Pissing Man') is a landmark 55.5 cm (21.9 in) bronze fountain sculpture in central Brussels, Belgium, depicting a puer mingens; a naked little boy urinating into the fountain's basin. Though its existence is attested as early as the mid-15th century, Manneken Pis was redesigned by the Brabantine sculptor Jérôme Duquesnoy the Elder and put in place in 1619. Its stone niche in rocaille style dates from 1770. The statue has been repeatedly stolen or damaged throughout its history. Since 1965, a replica has been displayed, with the original stored in the Brussels City Museum. Manneken Pis is one of the best-known symbols of Brussels and Belgium, inspiring several legends, as well as numerous imitations and similar statues both nationally and abroad. The figure is regularly dressed up and its wardrobe consists of around one thousand different costumes. Since 2017, they have been exhibited in a dedicated museum called GardeRobe MannekenPis. Owing to its self-derisive nature, Manneken Pis is also an example of belgitude (French; lit. 'Belgianness'), as well as of folk humour (zwanze) popular in Brussels.
El carnero representa a Amón, «El oculto», símbolo del poder creador y «Padre de todos los vientos» en la mitología egipcia, originalmente una deidad tebana, cuyo culto se popularizó cuando la ciudad de Tebas pasó a ser una de las más influyentes de Egipto, tras la expulsión de los hicsos a manos de los príncipes tebanos que darían origen a la Dinastía XVII.
La figura pequeña representa a Taharqo, Nefertumjura Taharqo, rey de la dinastía XXV de Egipto, o Kushita, cuyo reinado se data de ca. 690 a. C. a 664 a. C.;Manetón lo denominó Tarcos, comentando que reinó 18 años (Julio Africano), Eusebio de Cesarea lo llama Taracos (según Jorge Sincelo) o Saraco (versión armenia) asignándole veinte años de reinado, y además era hermano de Shabitko, el rey precedente, e hijo de Piye, rey Nubio de Napata que conquistó Egipto.

El palacio de Rundale
Está situado a poco más de una hora en coche desde Riga en dirección a Lituania. Está casi en medio de la nada rodeado por campiña letona en la región de Zemgale, muy cerca de la frontera lituana. Lo más cercano, es la población de Bauska a 12 kilómetros donde se puede ver su antiguo castillo medieval.
La construcción del magnífico palacio que hoy podemos admirar se inició en 1736. Desde entonces ha pasado por varios propietarios y avatares.
Lo mandó construir el duque de Curlandia, Johann von Biron, cuando estas tierras aún formaban parte del Gran Ducado de Lituania. Las obras del palacio se completaron en dos etapas (ya que al duque lo desterraron a Siberia) y se finalizó en el año 1768 pudiendo pasar Biron los últimos cuatro años de su vida en él.
El salón dorado fue el lugar donde se situó el trono del duque. En su techo se puede ver una pintura representando la apoteosis del Rey.
Tras su fallecimiento, finalmente en 1795 pasó a ser propiedad del Imperio Ruso y ofrecido por los herederos a la familia de los Zubov que lo mantuvieron casi intacto salvo en algunos detalles exteriores que añadieron en los pórticos. A principios del siglo XIX Napoleón y su ejército comenzaron la invasión contra Rusia y tras su paso por esta zona el palacio quedó casi abandonado medio derruido por actos vandálicos.
El Salón Blanco fue creado primeramente como una iglesia, pero tras el segundo periodo de construcción del castillo se convirtió en una sala de baile. En las paredes se representan en relieve la diversidad de la vida social, las cuatro estaciones y el mundo de Dios.
Durante los siguientes 100 años aproximadamente el palacio recobró la calma y fue restaurado de los daños ocasionados y utilizado como residencia de verano de sus siguientes propietarios, la familia Shuvalov. Pero la I Guerra Mundial estaba próxima y durante este conflicto bélico el palacio fue ocupado por las tropas alemanas donde instauraron en él la comandancia y un hospital. Pasado este periodo, a parte del palacio se le asignó la función de escuela y posteriormente también a una organización de inválidos por la guerra.
La habitación Rosa con temática primaveral está dedicada a la Diosa de las flores.
Esta habitación era el espacio holandés, con una colección de pinturas de artista holandeses como Rembrandt.
En el gabinete de porcelana oval podemos ver numerosos jarrones chinos y japoneses
La Habitación del Duque
Actualmente restaurado lo que vemos hoy en día está restaurado. Durante la visita guiada se pueden contemplar las salas con la elegancia de antaño.
El Teatro Verde diseñado como un teatro romano posee un aforo de 600 personas.
Desde su inauguración en 1972 cuando fue inaugurado donde se puede observar en todo su esplendor esta muestra del arte barroco y rococó rodeados por un relajante canal que nos recuerda a los más elegantes jardines franceses.

They represent all that is left, with exception of a few isolated spots where there are still a few blooms and trees that are holding on to their leaves.
Today the balmy weather left us it's cold out right now, ( in the 30's ). We got one last shot of summer type weather ( called indian summer ) That is over now and from here on in we can expect dropping temperatures. They say we could get some snow flurries tonight. save for some photos of a heavy snow, witches frost , or going to the store I will probably not venture outside much.
We never know exactly the type of weather to expect. They say a harsh winter and it is a mild one, they say mild and it feels like the inside of a deep freezer. They predict little snow fall and we get buried. Calm weather and we get storms that tear up trees, knock down houses and sink ships on the lakes.
Over the course of the winters I have seen around here it would be safe to say...expect everything ! Winds can be terrible,driving the wind chill into the sub-zeros. I have seen 700 foot lake boats sitting on mud where the Maumee river was flowing. The wind has blown all the water toward Buffalo N.Y. At the other end the very reverse is happening, the water is piling up. These are not occurrences that happen every winter, but they do happen and you never know just when.
L’Antiquité représente pour le peintre Hubert Robert un cadre familier. Il illustre ici l’intérieur d’une basilique romaine : ruines grandioses d’une basilique à la voûte ornée de caissons et à la colonnade corinthienne, qui sert d’étable à un troupeau. La lumière pénètre par le trou de la voûte effondrée et au premier plan, une zone d’ombre, colline de décombres au sommet de laquelle se détache une vache, accentue cet effet remarquable de perspective. Affectionnant tout particulièrement le thème de la galerie, il sublime ces vestiges en tirant parti des dégradations du temps et en les amplifiant. Avec sa touche légère et esquissée, il anime ces ruines d’une façon qui lui est très personnelle en intégrant des personnages s’appropriant très naturellement le lieu.
En détail
Un personnage en tunique romaine peut être aperçu au sein du groupe d’individus ayant investi la galerie : une fantaisie fréquente chez le peintre.
Le saviez-vous ?
Hubert Robert illustre ici la possibilité d’éclairer par le haut la grande galerie du Louvre dont on veut en cette fin de XVIIIe siècle faire un musée. L’accident de la voûte, d’où s’échappe un rayon lumineux, préfigure l’éclairage zénithal des musées à venir.

La vie est une palette de couleurs, dont les nuances sont celles que l'on porte au fond du cœur. La vie est une palette de saveurs, composée d'un peu de soi-même, d'un peu de l'autre, qui mises bout à bout, représentent le chef-d'oeuvre ultime de l'humanité. La vie est amour au quotidien mais elle est avant tout le reflet que l'on lui donne
Joëlle Laurencin
Life is a palette of colors, the shades of which are those that we carry deep in our hearts. Life is a palette of flavors, composed of a little of ourselves, a little of the other, which put end to end, represent the ultimate masterpiece of humanity. Life is love on a daily basis but it is above all the reflection that we give it

Jake represents the Proletariat, desperately clutching at worldly possessions and societal expectations (the gift box) while simultaneously dangling over the abyss of environmental and economic catastrophe (the floor), suspended all along by the weight of history and bourgeois establishment (the cast iron staircase), ironically a situation of our own creation.
(yes I am joking here mostly)
This elderly grainary represents all that is left of "Wyarno"; to the railroad it was just "Arno" and a BN standard station sign used say that in big black letters, because I photographed the building through its twin posts about 30 years ago on a foggy evening. The state highway map no longer shows a "Wyarno", and the railroad eliminated the station, so this lonely grain elevator just stands at the east end of a long siding called "Dutch"; the west end of the siding is the beginning of the branch to Decker Mine, a few miles north in Montana. I'm just amazed it's still there as an eastbound Herzog ballast train passes it. It's about eight miles east of Sheridan.
In retrospect, I probably shouldn't have taken this photo. I'm a bit of a novice on the subject and could be wrong, but he appears to be flashing a gang sign at me.

25 Days of Christmas ~ Day 5
Advent Wreath
www.ourlittleroses.org/blog/what-is-advent-season/
The most significant tradition of the Advent season is the Advent Wreath. The wreath and candles are full of symbolism tied to the Christmas season. So what does the Advent Wreath symbolize? The wreath itself, which is made of various evergreens, signifies continuous life. The circle of the wreath, which has no beginning or end, symbolizes the eternity of God, the immortality of the soul, and the everlasting life we find in Christ.
Advent Candles
The candles also have their own special significance. The four candles represent the four weeks of Advent, and one candle is lit each Sunday. Three of the candles are purple because the color violet is a liturgical color that signifies a time of prayer, penance, and sacrifice.
•[11/28/21 Sunday] - THE FIRST CANDLE, which is purple, symbolizes hope. It is sometimes called the “Prophecy Candle” in remembrance of the prophets, especially Isaiah, who foretold the birth of Christ. It represents the expectation felt in anticipation of the coming Messiah.
•[12/5/21 Sunday] - THE SECOND CANDLE, also purple, represents faith. It is called the “Bethlehem Candle” as a reminder of Mary and Joseph’s journey to Bethlehem.
•[12/12/21 Sunday] - THE THIRD CANDLE is pink and symbolizes joy. It is called the “Shepherd’s Candle,” and is pink because rose is a liturgical color for joy. The third Sunday of Advent is Gaudete Sunday and is meant to remind us of the joy that the world experienced at the birth of Jesus, as well as the joy that the faithful have reached the midpoint of Advent.
•[12/19/21 Sunday] - On the fourth week of Advent, we light THE FINAL PURPLE CANDLE to mark the final week of prayer and penance as we wait for the birth of our Savior. This final candle, the “Angel’s Candle,” symbolizes peace. It reminds us of the message of the angels: “Peace on Earth, Good Will Toward Men.”
An urn, representing the great deity of lightning, from the pre-Colombian Zapotec culture in southern Mexico. He doesn't look like someone to argue with, From the Ancient Americas collection of the Field Museum, Chicago, Illinois -- May 7, 2016
"Cocijo was said to be the great lightning god and creator of the world. In Zapotec myth, he made the sun, moon, stars, seasons, land, mountains, rivers, plants and animals, and day and night by exhaling and creating everything from his breath." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocijo

Modèle créé pour un défi avec Tim Rickman avec comme thème «les 1001 nuits». Ayant déjà créé un génie de la lampe, trouver une autre idée de personnage nécessitait relire ce livre. J'ai donc opté pour représenter l'histoire de base des 1001 nuits, avec Schéhérazade qui raconte des histoires au sultan pour éviter la mort. J'ai forcé le modèle pour qu'il soit légèrement asymétrique. Les pages du livre ne tiennent pas très bien ensemble, mais elles peuvent être remodelées en dunes de sable par exemple.
Model created for an «Arabian Nights» challenge with Tim Rickman. Having already created a genie of the lamp, finding another character idea required me to read the whole book. I then opted to represent the main story of Arabian Nights, with Scheherazad telling stories to the sultan to avoid death. I forced the model so it would be slightly assymmetric. The pages of the book don't hold well together, but they can be remodeled as sand dunes for example.
"The architect represents neither a Dionysian nor an Apollinian state: here it is the great act of will, the will that moves mountains, the rapture of the great will which aspires to art. The mightiest men have always inspired architects; the architect has always been under the spell of power. In his buildings, pride, the victory over gravity, and the will to power strive to become visible; architecture is a species of the rhetoric of power in forms, now persuading, even flattering, now simply commanding. The highest feeling of power and sureness finds expression in that which possesses grand style."
- Friedrich Nietzsche

This shot was taken in Fengdu Ghost City that is a large complex of shrines, temples and monasteries dedicated to the afterlife located on the Ming mountain, in Fengdu County, Chongqing municipality, China.
The city consists of buildings, structures, dioramas, and statues that are related to Diyu, the concept of the underworld and hell (or Naraka) in Chinese mythology and Buddhism. It is modeled to resemble Youdu, the capital of Diyu.

Historique : Cité médiévale fortifiée dotée d'un système défensif important, très restaurée au 19e siècle par Viollet-le-Duc. Une portion des murailles remonte au 5e siècle, sans doute suite au passage des Wisigoths. Le château date des 11e et 12e siècles. La porte Narbonnaise et toute la partie méridionale de l'enceinte intérieure, ainsi que le couronnement des tours, ont été construits au 13e siècle, après que le dernier vicomte de Carcassonne eut abandonné en 1247 ses droits seigneuriaux à Saint-Louis. L'enceinte extérieure paraît être peu postérieure à ces dernières constructions.

"we represent ourselves everywhere, and find out representation everywhere. We are the protagonists of our stories, the perfect heros, the justs, the savvy. Outside of us this story is nothing, it's an object of no particular value, a transient soon forgot to be replaced by other transients." (J. Breger, "about looking" pg. 51).
I think this passage is right for this photo. the windows in the background represents the others looking at us one is looking into them. Our story is written as a mere transparent line that will pass unnoticed, or vaguely recognized.
I looked at the original and it was dull. Is it too retouched?
This wooden box represents a typically Egyptian shrine or naos with its tapering walls.
The naos is covered with a flat lid guarded by a figurine of a mummified falcon, whose head is equipped with a hole in which was, most probably, fixed the feather headdress - a characteristic depiction of Sokar, patron god of the Memphite necropolis, who is often shown in this position on the roof of the tomb of Osiris. Thus, the shrine is associated with the famous Osireion.

Iceberg with the stripes of black represent volcanic eruptions that spewed ash on top of ice over time.
Huge icebergs detach from the glacier and float on the Lake Jokulsarlon These icebergs are seen in two shades: milky white and bright blue, which depends on the air trapped within the ice and is an interplay of light and ice crystals.
Jökulsárlón is a large glacial lake in southeast Iceland, on the edge of Vatnajökull National Park. Situated at the head of the Breiðamerkurjökull glacier, it developed into a lake after the glacier started receding from the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. The lake has grown since then at varying rates because of melting of the glaciers. It is now 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) away from the ocean's edge and covers an area of about 18 km2 (6.9 sq mi). It recently became the deepest lake in Iceland, at over 248 metres (814 ft), as glacial retreat extended its boundaries The size of the lake has increased fourfold since the 1970s. It is considered as one of the natural wonders of Iceland.(Wikipedia)
A ‘Mass’ demonstration by ‘The Extinction Rebellion’ group taking place along Deansgate, Manchester, UK.
Joe public are up in arms with the police and the local council as they allowed the 4 day demonstration to take place along Deansgate, the main route through the City centre; chosen by the demonstrators as they say it is the most polluted street in the City. In defence of the police they maintained that allowing the closure of the road would result in less trouble and fewer arrests; I don’t know if there were any. This young lady was the sole person on view, representing the City of Hull, in their encampment; she looked extremely cold. Looking in the other direction, (behind me), the scene wasn’t much better; in other words not a great turnout. This had nothing like the impact the demonstration had in London a few weeks back. The weather wasn’t great but I still think the turnout would have been poor.
