Representa a Latona, madre de Apolo y Diana siendo increpada por los hombres que como castigo se van convirtiendo en ranas.
Historia:Este conjunto de mármol esculpido por los hermanos Marsy en 1670 es una las obras más famosas de Versalles y representa a Latona y sus hijos, dando nombre al estanque sobre el que se erige. Inspirado en Las metamorfosis de Ovidio, el estanque de Latona ilustra la metamorfosis de los campesinos de Licia en anfibios tras haber impedido a la diosa y a sus hijos Diana y Apolo beber en un estanque. El estanque y el parterre que lo rodean –diseñado por André Le Nôtre– fueron íntegramente restaurados en el año 2015.

* Castillo de Medellín. Medellín. Provincia de Badajoz. Extremadura. Ruta de los Conquistadores. España.
* El Castillo de Medellín comenzó siendo un campamento romano en 74 d.C. En el siglo XIII se convirtió en una fortaleza medieval. Después de la reconquista del castillo en el año 1234 por Fernando III el Santo, perteneció a varios dueños durante el siglo XIV. El castillo lo reconstruyó el rey Enrique II, en el año 1357, si bien no alcanzó su forma definitiva hasta la segunda mitad del siglo XV. Entre los años 1475 y 1479, tomó parte a favor de Juana la Beltraneja al igual que la mayoría de la nobleza extremeña.
Se encuentra emplazado sobre una colina junto al río Guadiana. Fue declarado monumento histórico artístico y bien de interés cultural en 1931.
* Nada mejor para evocar esta foto que un fragmento del texto poético que Francisco García escribió sobre el mismo.
…El Castillo de Medellín, cual otro Arca Bíblico colocado en la cima de un montículo, es algo así como otro signo representativo de una historia que es fortaleza, que es heroísmo, que es religión, que es poesía, que es drama, que es cementerio, que sintetiza una gama de matices difícil de sintetizar en unas cuartillas periodísticas…
(FRANCISCO GARCÍA. El Castillo de Medellín.)
This image represents an unexpected sight. Exploring areas near Kanab, Utah, we were on our way to Old Paria, which was billed as a ghost town with a wooden structure which would make for a wonderful foreground against the striated hills behind. We read that the structure was actually built as a movie prop and was used in westerns, including The Outlaw Josey Wales. Supposedly, it was damaged and moved to higher ground nearby to protect it from floods. We found, or rather didn't find the structure, which we're pretty sure no longer exists. At least we couldn't find it, and it wasn't for lack of trying. We were rewarded, however, with this view along the way. Luckily, the area had been dusted with snow that morning, adding a delightful frosting to the hills and gullies and the remnants of the snowstorm in the sky.
... but we do not represent hope for them!
Let us keep the flowers in the soil; no plucking!

Painted ceramic benches representing all the provinces in Spain are arranged round the square.
It was built because of the Ibero-american Exhibition of 1929, held in Seville. Its creator was Aníbal González. He mixed a style inspired by the Renaissance with typical elements from the city: exposed brick, ceramics and wrought iron (worked by Domingo Prida). Its floor plan is semicircular. It is dominated by 2 towers, one on each side of the enclosed area, which frame the central building where the main rooms are. Between the two towers runs a network of galleries with an arcade of semicircular arches leading to exits in different parts of the square, where a fountain stands.

“The mermaid is an archetypal image that represents a woman who is at ease in the great waters of life, the waters of emotion and sexuality. She shows us how to embrace our instinctive sexuality and sensuality so that we can affirm the essence of our feminine nature, the wisdom of our bodies, and the playfulness of our spirits. She symbolizes our connection with our deepest instinctive feelings, our wild and untamed animal nature that exists below the surface of outward personalities. She is able to respond to her mysterious sexual impulses without abandoning her more human, conscious side.
Representante de la arquitectura de finales del siglo XIX, obra del arquitecto Santiago Rebollar, que finalizó su construcción en 1892. Destaca la fachada principal, rematada con el escudo de la ciudad, y la de la Merced, con una tribuna de columnas jónicas coronadas por un frontón. Toda la parte baja del edificio es de piedra caliza blanca y la superior de ladrillo visto y piedra caliza.
En el interior una impresionante escalera, desarrollada en dos vertientes y cubierta por una cúpula decorada por Ángel Andrade y Samuel Luna. En sus galerías, como exposición permanente, destaca la obra de Andrade junto a otros pintores y escultores de la provincia.
El Arco de Tito situado en la Vía Sacra justo al sureste del Foro, en Roma, Italia, fue construido hacia el año 82 d.C. por el emperador romano Domiciano para conmemorar las victorias de Tito contra los judíos. El arco tiene una estructura sencilla de un único vano flanqueado por dos grandes pilares con bóveda de cañón artesanado, en el interior el valor del Arco de Tito esta puesto en su decoración escultórica, sobria en el exterior y desbordante bajo la bóveda, donde el altorrelieves de gran formato representan la entrada triunfal de Vespasiano y tito. En lo alto del intradós del Arco un relieve muestra a Tito transportado por un águila a los cielos.
The Thurisaz rune (ᚦ) represents the ability to confront obstacles, the strength to endure adversity, and the protection of mighty forces. Like the thorn it symbolizes, this rune reminds you that true strength lies not just in attack, but in defense and resilience. It suggests that you have the inner fortitude to face any challenge that stands in your way, urging you to stand firm and embrace your power.
Thurisaz is a rune of both conflict and transformation, showing that through struggle, growth is achieved. It calls on you to harness your inner strength wisely, channeling your energy to break through barriers and drive positive change. More than just a force of destruction, Thurisaz is a guardian—its presence in your path signifies that you are not alone, as unseen forces shield and guide you. Whether in battle, personal trials, or major life transitions, this rune is a reminder that your resilience is your greatest weapon, and through perseverance, victory is within reach.
"Thurisaz is the force that breaks and the strength that endures—embrace the storm, for it forges the warrior within."

“When fortune calls, offer her a chair”....Thanks Rita for your testimonial!
I want to take a moment and celebrate all my Flickr contacts as well - I chose to photograph a section of my kitchen chair (above) as a symbol of the friendship I have with most of you. The strands represent all of you, coming together to form a single point of strength and every day providing me with support and most of all encouragement. As with the chair, every strand counts - from the most timid but consistent "fave" (you know who you are) to the most flamboyant award giver (you know who you are too!). Please know that all this support combined has helped to up my quality and has stirred my imagination to a degree I never thought possible. We must learn to trust what we see and photograph it in the best possible way. Thank you and here's to quality, good fortune and honest opinions!

"My transformation represents more than what is just skin deep; it represents my motivation, drive, and willingness to constantly improve." ~Jinder Mahal
I'm a firm believer that we should never stop learning & always strive to improve ourselves. Life is so precious & should be celebrated every time we awake each morning! I thank God for my many blessings, family & friends. Thank you all for reaching out this morning with the lovely birthday wishes and gifts. Missy Fenwitch, I would like to acknowledge for the beautiful 'Happy Birthday' backdrop with poses!! This was so cute!! 💞
Representing the three lions in the menagerie of Henry lll at The Tower of London in the 13th century and included on his crest. Still visible to this day on the England football shirt.
There was a zoo here until the 19th century when animal welfare concerns saw the remaining animals transferred to more suitable accommodation in the new London Zoo at Regents Park.
Las Alondras y todos los representantes de su familia los alaudidos, son cada día mas escasos,
Habitantes de espacios abiertos, sufren como otras tantas especies de aves, la explotación intensiva de muchos pastizales.
Campos de cultivo de cereales de crecimiento rápido que se siegan antes de que las aves puedan haber terminado su ciclo reproductor y rociados de herbicidas y pesticidas que envenenan a sus presas, la verdad es que no lo tienen fácil para sobrevivir.
Sin embargo, bastan que en esos cultivos intensivos, se dejen pequeñas parcelas de terrenos sin sembrar, donde crezcan las mal llamadas malas hierbas y no se echen tantos pesticidas y herbicidas a los cultivos, que al final también nosotros los terminamos ingiriendo y acumulando en nuestros tejidos, para que las alondras y demás aves habitantes de estos espacios, pudiesen criar y alimentarse.
¿Estaremos dispuestos a ello?.
En algunos lugares se hace con resultados muy buenos en lo referente a los aguiluchos cenizos y pálidos,
Ojala esa sensibilidad cada vez este mas presente, pero tengo muchas dudas de ello.
En la foto una Alondra común (Alauda arvensis) .
Saludos.

* Detalle del mosaico representando La Fuente del Río, en la ciudad de Cabra de Córdoba, (La Igabrum tartesso-romana). Centro geográfico de Andalucía.
* La Fuente del Río, es el lugar donde brota el curso del Río Cabra (Afluente del Genil y subafluente del Guadalquivir)). Desde este lugar, el romano egabrense, Tribuno Militar de la VI Legión, Marco Cornelio, hizo construir un acueducto que condujo estas aguas hasta la población de Igabrum. Y así consta en la epigrafía que se puede encontrar en dicho lugar.
La Fuente del Río está declarada paraje de interés natural a nivel internacional.
* Traeremos a colación otro soneto del poeta egabrense Ángel Murillo, como ya dábamos el primero en evocaciones anteriores.
IMPRESIÓN LÍRICA DE LA FUENTE DEL RÍO
Apacible rincón donde el reposo,
la sombra y la frescura, confundidos
dan paz al corazón y a los sentidos
y el alma llenan de encendido gozo.
Refugio sosegado y deleitoso
con trinos, con susurros, con latidos,
con trémulos silencios escondidos
en pálpito que estalla tembloroso.
Del roquedal abierta en la ladera
una gruta colgada como un nido
sobre el verde y azul de la fontana.
Y el fluir de la linfa plañidera
que una alfombra de espumas ha tendido
a los pies de la Virgen Soberana. .
(ÁNGEL MURILLO. Poemario.)
The Saffron-crowned Tanager (Tangara xanthocephala) is a breathtaking subject, and capturing it at La Minga Ecolodge near Cali, Colombia, was a rewarding challenge. This Andean gem, perched elegantly on a mossy branch, stands out with its vivid saffron-yellow crown and iridescent turquoise plumage. The soft, diffused light filtering through the cloud forest canopy provided an ideal setting to highlight the bird’s intricate feather details and the rich textures of its surroundings. This image represents the delicate balance of nature and the beauty of photographing wildlife in its natural habitat.
For this shot, I used the Canon RF 100-500mm lens at its maximum focal length of 500mm, allowing me to capture the tanager from a respectful distance without disturbing its behavior. A shutter speed of 1/500 sec froze the subtle movements of the bird, while an aperture of f/6.7 ensured a creamy background that isolates the subject beautifully. ISO 800 balanced the low light conditions, retaining vibrant colors and sharp details. These technical choices reflect my approach to bird photography—blending precision and respect for the natural world to create images that tell a story.

With two Le Mans wins, dozens of grand prix victories, five Targa Florios, a Manufacturers’ Championship, and the build of some of the pre-war period’s most celebrated sports and luxury automobiles to its credit, it is no wonder that the Bugatti marque is regularly honored at world-class concours d’elegance and museums. The Molsheim, France-based brand is so esteemed that a commemoration of its 100th anniversary was never in doubt. So when the occasion arrived in 2009, the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance duly pronounced Bugatti’s centenary as one of the event’s guiding themes.
This opportunity was not lost on Bugatti Automobiles SaS, the modern successor to Ettore Bugatti’s original Alsatian concern. The company’s signature product, the 1,001-horsepower Veyron 16.4, had spent years in careful development by the VW Group’s specialized engineers, and was received with justifiable acclaim by journalists and enthusiasts alike upon its 2005 introduction, redefining the benchmark for the modern hypercar in the process.
The Veyron was capable of accelerating from 0 to 62 mph in just 2.46 seconds, en route to a top speed just over 408 km/h (nearly 254 mph). Built around a magnificent mid-mounted, quad-turbocharged 8.0-liter W-16 engine with four valves per cylinder and a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, it astonished the world with its surefootedness even at the most extreme speeds, enabled by a full-time Haldex all-wheel-drive system. The stopping power was stunning, as the Veyron was anchored by massive carbon-ceramic disc brakes with 15.7-inch discs and eight-piston, four-pad calipers up front, while 15-inch discs with six-piston, two-pad calipers were mounted at the rear. The alloy wheels, respectively 20 and 21 inches at the front and rear, were shod with special Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 PAX run-flat tires engineered specifically for the Veyron.
Three different drive modes governed the dizzying array of technology: a Normal mode, at which the ride height was 4.9 inches; a Handling mode that deployed the rear spoiler and lowered ride height to 3.15 inches; and a special, key-activated High-Speed mode that dropped ride height to 2.56 inches in front and 2.75 at the rear, while changing the spoiler position. Even the car’s ancillary systems, including no fewer than 10 radiators, were marvels of automotive engineering conceived to perform under the most demanding circumstances.
All of this was encased within an intricately hand-crafted structure, actually shorter in overall length than a modern Porsche 911, though riding on a longer 106.7-inch wheelbase, while being noticeably lower and wider than the benchmark German sports car of the day. It was instantly and definitively recognizable as the pinnacle product that it aspired to be—the modern Bugatti, a sporting speed machine that looked and performed like absolutely nothing else on the road.
Le Rouge-gorge familier (Erithacus rubecula) est une espèce de passereaux. Auparavant placé dans la famille des Turdidae, il figure actuellement, avec d'autres représentants de celle-ci (particulièrement les tariers et les traquets), dans celle des Muscicapidae. La liste de la Commission de l'Avifaune française utilise l'orthographe rougegorge.
Une femme représente la force, celle que l’on retrouve dans l’arcane XI du Tarot. Elle semble maitriser un lion qui lui-même pose ses pattes sur deux serpents entrecroisés. Sa main ne tient devant la gueule de l’animal et elle n’a besoin d’aucune violence ou d’effort physique pour empêcher le lion d’ouvrir ou fermer ses mâchoires. C’est la puissance du haut état de conscience qui maitrise et contrôle la force de base. Les serpents s’enroulant ramènent au Caducée d’Hermès et représentent les deux polarités cosmiques et telluriques.

Las Tablas son uno de los últimos representantes de un ecosistema denominado tablas fluviales que se forman al desbordarse los ríos en sus tramos medios, favorecidos por fenómenos de semiendorreísmo y la escasez de pendientes. El humedal se forma en la confluencia del río Guadiana y su afluente Cigüela y es uno de los ecosistemas acuáticos más importantes de la península ibérica por la variedad y calidad de la fauna y flora que habitan en ella, así como por aquellas aves que la emplean en los pasos migratorios. Las Tablas sirve de refugio a más de 2.000 especies (plantas, aves, insectos, peces, réptiles... ).
Sin embargo, la supervivencia del parque peligra debido a la sobreexplotación de los acuíferos. Debido a esta degradación, el 22 de octubre de 2009 la Comisión Europea abre un expediente a España,6 mientras que la Unesco ya había expresado con anterioridad la posibilidad de retirar la figura de Reserva de la Biosfera. La Unesco abrió un expediente contra España a instancias de la denuncia presentada en noviembre de 2007 por las organizaciones ecologistas (Ecologistas en Acción, Greenpeace, SEO/BirdLife y WWF); en ella se argumentaba que la Reserva de la Biosfera de La Mancha Húmeda y, en especial, Las Tablas de Daimiel, presentaban un alto nivel de degradación que suponía la pérdida de los valores que las habían hecho merecedoras de la calificación como Reserva de la Biosfera.
“Su Nuraxi” Archaeological site in Barumini
Su Nuraxi archaeological site was brought to light in the fifties by archaeologist Giovanni Lilliu and was declared a World Heritage Site in 1997.
It is one of the most important archaeological complexes in Sardinia. Located at the foot of Giara di Gesturi, it played a fundamental role in the strategic system created by other nuraghes of the surrounding area.
The site of Su Nuraxi proves that the Nuragic civilization has existed in Sardinia for almost 1000 years, from 1500 until 500 B.C., and is represented by its most distinctive edifice, known as the nuraghe. In the area of Barumini there are roughly thirty nuraghe. Su Nuraxi, with its numerous towers, is the most representative among complex nuraghes.
Area Archeologica Su Nuraxi di Barumini
Il complesso archeologico, riportato alla lucedall’archeologo Giovanni Lilliu durante gli scavi degli anni ’50, è stato dichiarato Patrimonio Mondiale dell’UNESCO nel 1997.
Su Nuraxi è riconosciuto come uno dei più importanti siti archeologici della Sardegna: situato ai piedi della Giara di Gesturi, ha rivestito un ruolo significativo all’interno del sistema strategico di cui facevano parte gli altri nuraghi scaglionati nel territorio circostante.
Il sito testimonia la presenza della civiltà nuragica in Sardegna per circa 1000 anni (1500-500 a.C) con la costruzione più caratteristica del periodo, “il nuraghe”. Nel territorio di Barumini sono visibili circa una trentina di queste architetture e Su Nuraxi è il più rappresentativo dei nuraghi complessi, costituiti da più di una torre.

Ramaria formosa, commonly known as the salmon coral,[2][3] beautiful clavaria, handsome clavaria, yellow-tipped-[4] or pink coral fungus, is a coral fungus found in Europe. It is widely held to be mildly poisonous if consumed, giving rise to acute gastrointestinal symptoms of nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and colicky pain. It is a pinkish, much-branched coral-shape reaching some 20 cm (8 in) high. Similar forms collected in North America are now considered to represent a different species than the European Ramaria formosa.[5]

Cathédrale Saint Corentin - Quimper.
~~Les vitraux de la cathédrale de Quimper composent un ensemble particulièrement riche. Toutes les verrières basses anciennes ont été perdues ; quant aux verrières hautes, une grande part d'entre elles est, au moins en partie, ancienne, mais les restaurations menées depuis le XIXe siècle, très lourdes, rendent difficile la distinction entre les éléments anciens et modernes.
~~La plupart des verrières anciennes conservées, au moins en partie, remontent aux travaux du XVe siècle. L'ensemble des vitraux des parties hautes ont été déposés en 1942, puis reposées dans les années 1950-1960.
Our big magnolia came in at a bad time this year, with a hard freeze predicted for the next day. Fortunately, Mickie cut a few branches off and put them in a vase in the dining room, so I moved them to the studio - just the other end of the dining room these days! - and photographed them. I like the different stages of blossoming represented here. Tiring a bit of plain black backgrounds, I thought this blue-green complimented the blossoms nicely. Hoping you agree.
Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born
