Spoon – I eat earth is an art feature by Simone D’Auria designed as a tribute for Expo2015. There are 63 spoons on the side of the building and a number in the area outside the Gallery Hotel Art. All the spoons are made from recycled plastic. This spoon shaped bench invites you to “sit and be soothed by your own thoughts”

When I'm not absorbed by my own thoughts, you can find me on Twitter.

When I saw this flower through the viewfinder, back in July, it gave me a good feeling. It's not tack-sharp in all areas, so I have held off sharing it here, but I still like the soothing feeling it imparts.

............................................................................................................

Quand j'ai vu cette fleur à travers le viseur, en juillet, cela m'a donné une bonne impression. Ce n'est pas très précis dans tous les domaines, alors j'ai hésité à le partager ici, mais j'aime toujours la sensation apaisante qu'il donne.

I combined two images (in Photoscape) taken in the same spot as the sun went down to create this image.

It was taken on the island of Rhodes whilst my husband and I enjoyed our last meal before flying home.

10 stop ND filter, tripod. Converted to b&w, minor editing. "Locarno" is terribly inaccurate - this is from the Verzasca valley, from along a walk from Sonogno to Lavertezzo that I've now done three times, always with a tripod but equally always with limited time due to bus connections. Some time in the future I want to make sure I have all the time in the world here.

At Sjælsø there is always something to photograph. This particular photo show a not-so-uncommon Danish landscape. We don't have grand vistas with mirror lakes in front and snow covered mountain peaks in the back but what do have are hills that exhibit gentle shapes, with fields and/or trees following the contours. At least to me, these gentle shapes are really soothing.

Colors are the smiles of nature.

— Leigh Hunt —

Color in a picture is like enthusiasm in life.

— Vincent Van Gogh —

A colorful vibrant garden filled with the most beautiful colors that uplift the spirit and promote a sense of peace and healing.

A garden where the flowers bloom in a spectrum of vivid colors each adding to the overall joy and serenity of the space.

The surrounding greenery creates a soothing contrast, it is inviting us to take in deep breaths of fresh air and feel connected to nature.

In such a space, mood is enhanced, peace and healing takes place, and every corner radiate tranquility.

Conquering Pedra da Mina ('Water Spring Rock'): A Tale of Rain, Wind, and One Very Stubborn Mountain. by Elias Rovielo

**Day 1: The Ascent – Or, How I Learned to Love the Pain**

I woke up at the crack of dawn, fueled by a hearty breakfast at Hostel El Refúgio Rosetal in Itanhandu, Minas Gerais. Little did I know, this would be the last warm meal I’d truly enjoy for the next 24 hours. Our trusty steed for the day? A vintage Kombi (VW van) that rattled its way to Paiolinho, the starting point of our epic trek.

The trail greeted me with open arms—and by "open arms," I mean relentless uphill climbs, technical rock scrambles, and a cruel sense of humor. First up was the infamous *Deus-me-livre* (which roughly translates to "God-free-me"), a never-ending mountain that made me question every life choice that led me here. Next, the *Enganador* (or "The Trickster"), a false summit that mocked me with its fake promise of victory.

But finally, after what felt like a lifetime of sweat, tears, and questionable decisions, I reached the summit of Pedra da Mina "Water Spring Rock"—the fourth highest peak in Brazil and the crown jewel of the Mantiqueira Range. The view? Breathtaking. The weather? Less so. Rain poured down like the sky had a personal vendetta against me, the wind howled like a pack of angry wolves, and the cold? Let’s just say I’ve felt warmer in a freezer.

Dinner was a soggy affair, courtesy of the Entre Picos team. No campfire stories, no drinks, just the soothing sound of rain pounding on our tents and wind trying to blow us off the mountain. Safe to say, my tent became my fortress of solitude.

---

**Day 2: The Descent – Or, How I Survived the Mountain’s Revenge**

I woke up early, hoping for a majestic sunrise. Instead, I got dark clouds and the ominous promise of more rain. Breakfast was served right on the summit, because apparently, eating pancakes at 2,798 meters (9,180-foot) is a thing. Spoiler: It’s cold.

The descent was a race against time and weather. We retraced our steps (and our regrets) back to Paiolinho, where our trusty Kombi awaited to whisk us back to civilization. As I collapsed into the van, I couldn’t help but feel a strange sense of accomplishment. Sure, I was wet, cold, and probably smelled like a wet dog, but I had conquered Pedra da Mina.

---

**Technical Details (Because I Like to Brag):**

- **Physical Difficulty:** Hard/Advanced (aka "Why did I sign up for this?")

- **Technical Difficulty:** Moderate (aka "I’m basically a mountain goat now.")

- **Total Distance:** 13km / 8,07 miles (aka "Feels like 130km / 80,77m") each way

- **Total Elevation Gain:** 1,300m / 4,265ft (aka "My legs hate me.")

---

**Final Thoughts:**

If you’re looking to level up your trekking game and experience the raw, unfiltered beauty (and brutality) of Serra Fina, this is the trek for you. Just don’t forget your rain gear, a sense of humor, and maybe a therapist for when you’re halfway up *Deus-me-livre*.

Pedra da Mina, you win this round. But I’ll be back.

PS My personal record is the Veintimilla Summit at 6,234 meters (20,452 ft) SML, 'El Chimborazo' Volcano at 6,263 meters (20,702 ft) SML, Equador.

The summit of Mount Everest is higher above sea level, but the summit of Chimborazo is widely reported to be the farthest point on the surface from Earth's center.
