A shot of one of my notebooks.
In the expression of visual language, our sentences are formed out of patterns and shapes. In this shot taken in Smuggler Cove, the trees are still somewhat barren of green while the watery surface has both pollen and leaves. Trees form lines and appear to probe a solid surface, while shapes delineate that same barrier.
It all speaks of Spring and the never ending story as the seasons once again change. What is visual, also speaks volumes to us while we take notice of the changing elements around us.
Чего боится эта жаба, сидящая на трубе? Чего боятся эти бункерные воры больше всего? Вы сами отлично знаете. Выхода людей на улицы. (…) Вот этот самый вороватый бункерный дед сидит и трясётся от страха. Они же боятся! Ровно поэтому делают всё так срочно, тайно, секретно, так торопятся. Они боятся — и боятся они вас. Боятся тех людей, которые могут перестать молчать, осознать свою силу и понять: Ну кто может им противостоять? Эти люди задают вопрос: «Почему вся Россия внезапно подчиняется какому-то Путину, Сечину, эти Ротенбергам, сборищу какого-то жулья чудовищного?» Как только мы это осознаем, выйдем на улицы, всё это просто перестанет, растворится. Мы же каждый день просто теряем возможности, которые даёт нам настоящее, и каждый день теряем своё будущее. 20 лет уже подряд. 20 лет подряд мы становимся беднее, наша страна деградирует, наше образование всё хуже, наше здравоохранение всё более чбого.
Это никто не остановит, кроме нас самих. Поэтому я вас призываю: не молчите! Сопротивляйтесь! Выходите на улицы! Никто, кроме нас самих, нас не защитит. А нас так много, что если мы захотим чего-то добиться, мы этого добьёмся.»
Алексей Анатольевич Навальный, Москва 2021
“Do not keep silent”
This is an excerpt of a speech that Aleksey Navalny gave in a Moscow court during his show trial in 2021 before being sentenced to camp imprisonment. I haven’t found an official translation into English, so I’m giving it a try myself… everything this English version lacks in style, clarity and possibly grammar is only due to my limited capabilities.
“What does this toad sitting on a pipeline fear the most? What do these thieves in their bunkers fear the most? You know it perfectly well. They fear people taking to the streets. (…) This thievish old man is sitting in his bunker and is shivering with fear. They are afraid! That’s the only reason that everything happening is so rushed, so secretive, hurried and hushed. They are afraid, and they are afraid of you. They are afraid of people who no longer are willing to silently endure, of people who recognize their power and realize that they are unstoppable. People who wonder: “Why is all of Russia supposed to bow down to a Putin, a Sechin, some Rotenbergs, to this bunch of monstrous crooks?” It will all stop as soon as we realize this and take to the streets; it will vanish into thin air. Every day we keep losing possibilities that we still have today; every day we lose a bit of future. It has been like that for twenty years. For twenty years we have been getting poorer and poorer, our country has been degenerating. Our education has been worsening, our health system is getting more run-down by the day.
No one but we ourselves can stop this. This is why I appeal to you: Do not keep silent! Make a stand! Take to the streets! Nobody but we can protect ourselves. And we are so many; if we really want to achieve something, we can do it.”
“But Sasha was from Russia, where the sunsets are longer, the dawns less sudden and sentences are often left unfinished from doubt as how to best end them.”
― Virginia Woolf, Orlando

What a difference a Year Makes
This was December 2019 , commuting in the dark and seeing the dawn rising . as the LUAS tram passed over the M50 motorway. I have been Working From Home . since late February , this year has gone in a blur of unexpected events and lots and lots of isolation. I don't know how I feel about commuting anymore. It seems like something from a bizarre Sci-fi film now :)
We are good at adapting !

A relaxing space, listening sound of raindrop and soft music absent-mindedly.
The person who created this gallery might be passing time in this world, photographing things she like whenever she like, creating things at her own pace, and listening music she like with friends she like.
I am thrilled in this world when I encounter a space where the peoples sharing the same values are passing the time away. I thought I would like to inform the creator of the space with the place where I am visiting often.

There is nothing special, but I am often passing time dreamingly here listening music.
I have heard that there is a saying, “The two of a kind should encounter each other.”
If there is any person reading this sentence who shares the same value with me, I think it is probably true that we will be associated in some way, some time.
I cannot have a talk using other language than Japanese, but I am always happy to share the value through photographs and creations, more than that can be done through language:-)

The sentence doesn't make even sense, but I feel it does to me. :D

"...employed in a speech by Abraham Lincoln before he became the 16th president: “It is said an Eastern monarch once charged his wise men to invent him a sentence, to be ever in view, and which should be true and appropriate in all times and situations. They presented him the words: ‘And this, too, shall pass away.’ How much it expresses! How chastening in the hour of pride! How consoling in the depths of affliction!”

Feed me next please, I’m starving !
Three baby Java Sparrows, only recently fledged from the nest, wait patiently in-line to be fed by one of their parents.
Actually, the sentence above is a complete lie …. :)
The three fledglings were in fact desperately scrambling over one another in order to be fed first by their parents.
This was simply a case of right time, right moment, lucky capture …. giving a false impression the three fledglings were actually queuing in an orderly manner !

They had inherited his spirit—the spirit which demands that the thoughts in the mind should harmonize with the words on the lips when we sing in choir (ut mens nostra concordet voci nostrae) 12 and that we should all be, in reality, what we are supposed to be (semper meminisse debet [abbas] quod dicitur, et nomen majoris factis implere): 13 that conduct should be in accordance with our profession. For St. Benedict passes a strict sentence upon those who call themselves monks but lead a worldly life and “lie to God by their tonsure.” 14 Hoc sit quod dicitur [let it be what it is called]. 15 These are the watchwords of our fathers: truth, simplicity in all things, unity as opposed to duplicity: our behavior, our name, our profession, all should be reducible to one and the same thing.
-The Spirit of Simplicity, Jean-Baptiste Chautard OSCO, Translated by Thomas Merton
Hope Cove, South Devon UK.
The name Hope Cove may derive tautologically from the Old Norse word hóp meaning "bay" or "small inlet".
Historically, the village falls into two parts, Outer Hope to the north and Inner Hope to the south. Inner Hope fell within the parish of Malborough until 1974, when it was united with its neighbour on the other side of a small headland. Both parts of the village originally developed as centre for the local fishing industry. Hope Cove also developed a reputation for smuggling and for plundering wrecked ships.
In 1588 the ships of the Spanish Armada passed the village as they moved up the English Channel. After the Armada was defeated and headed back through storms, the San Pedro el Mayor, a transport ship fitted out as a hospital, was blown onto the rocks between Inner and Outer Hope. The 140 survivors were initially sentenced to death, but were eventually ransomed and sent back to Spain.
Hope Cove was the setting for a number of studies by Victorian painter Sir Luke Fildes; inspiring the cottage in his work in oil The Doctor.
Early in World War II, 'RAF Hope Cove' was established as a GCI Mobile Radar Station at Soar Farm near Malborough and in 1941 RAF Bolt Head opened as a fighter satellite airfield on adjacent land with RAF Exeter as its parent station. Many RAF personnel were billeted in Hope Cove including The Cottage Hotel and The Grand Hotel. Both bases were closed soon after the war ended in 1945 but RAF Hope Cove reopened and was expanded to accommodate an 18,000 sq ft underground R6 ROTOR bunker to meet the growing Soviet threat to peace in the early 1950s. An RAF Married Quarters site was built in Malborough (its houses survive today in private ownership as Malborough Park) but the ROTOR site was only operational from 1956–58 and was finally sold off by the government in 1999.
The village featured in the British comedy film The Supergrass. with location filming in and around Hope Cove in late 1984. Directed by Peter Richardson and starring Adrian Edmondson, Jennifer Saunders, Dawn French and others from the 1980s alternative comedy group 'The Comic Strip', this was their first feature-length film and was released in the UK in November 1985.

Le Perroen a été créé en 1292 et était le signe d'autorité du prince-évêque de Liège. C'est un plateau avec une base en granit de cinq marches, gardé par trois figures de lions, une colonne couronnée par une pomme de pin et une croix dorée avec un échafaudage à côté. Perroens était présent dans toute la zone d'influence de la Principauté de Liège, à Maaseik, Saint-Trond et Hasselt, mais aussi à Maastricht.
"Le Perroen était un lieu où l'on pouvait annoncer officiellement, par exemple, qu'il fallait baisser le prix du pain." Mais cela a également été utilisé pour les condamnations, le condamné étant ensuite exécuté sur un échafaud à côté du Perroen. Le Vrijthof était utilisé pour des exécutions massives. Des « incendies de sorcières » ont eu lieu au milieu du Vrijthof. L'objectif de « dissuasion » était ainsi pleinement atteint. Toutes les personnes présentes pouvaient le voir clairement. L'une des condamnations les plus sensationnelles au Perroen fut celle de Jacques Badut, bourgmestre de Liège. Badut fut l'instigateur d'une révolte des Liégeois contre l'évêque Jean de Bavière (1408), qui s'enfuit à Maastricht, qui fut ensuite assiégée à deux reprises. Badut a échoué, Van Beieren a été réintégré.
Le monarque prend une terrible revanche, ce qui lui vaut le surnom de Jean sans Pité.
The Perroen was created in 1292 and was the sign of authority of the prince-bishop of Liège. It is a plateau with a granite base of five steps, guarded by three lion figures, a column crowned by a pine cone and a golden cross with scaffolding next to it. Perroens was present throughout the area of influence of the Principality of Liège, in Maaseik, Sint-Truiden and Hasselt, but also in Maastricht.
“Le Perroen was a place where we could officially announce, for example, that the price of bread had to be lowered.” But this was also used for sentencing, with the condemned then executed on a scaffold next to the Perroen. The Vrijthof was used for mass executions. “Witch burnings” took place in the middle of the Vrijthof. The objective of “dissuasion” was thus fully achieved. Everyone present could see it clearly. One of the most sensational convictions in Perroen was that of Jacques Badut, mayor of Liège. Badut was the instigator of a revolt of the people of Liège against Bishop John of Bavaria (1408), who fled to Maastricht, which was then besieged twice. Badut failed, Van Beieren was reinstated.
The monarch takes a terrible revenge, which earns him the nickname of John without Pity.
