Grand Central at rush hour:

Manhattan (New York)

“Thousands have lived without love, not one without water.” - Wystan Hugh Auden, British-American poet.

The theme for “Smile on Saturday” for the 17th of June is “the shape of water”, where I am permitted to photograph water in the form of a gas (steam), a solid (ice or snow) or liquid. This is a very challenging theme. Although it is winter where I live, it doesn’t snow here, so that leaves gas or liquid. I have opted for liquid. I have wanted to play with water and food dye and photograph it for a while. So, on a sunny day, I pulled out a crystal wine glass, filled it with water and added some red food dye! Voilà! It’s amazing how something that looks so effortless can sometimes take a great deal of work! The idea was great - the execution not so easy. I had to be quick, so within two shots after dropping a few drops of colouring into the glass, the whole glass was coloured. I think I did about ten or twelve glasses of water and this is the one I liked the most. I hope that you like my choice for the theme this week, and that it makes you smile.

I post similar image like this before, but I think I prefer this one with more clouds.

And yet still present...

I grow plants for many reasons: to please my eye or to please my soul, to challenge the elements or to challenge my patience, for novelty or for nostalgia, but mostly for the joy in seeing them grow.~ David Hobson

🎶 BOYCE AVENUE - A THOUSAND YEARS - CHRISTINA PERRI COVER

Heart beats fast

Colors and promises

How to be brave?

How can I love when I'm afraid to fall?

But watching you stand alone

All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow

One step closer

I have died every day waiting for you

Darling, don't be afraid

I have loved you for a thousand years

I'll love you for a thousand more

Time stands still

Beauty in all she is

I will be brave

I will not let anything take away

What's standing in front of me

Every breath

Every hour has come to this

One step closer

I have died every day waiting for you

Darling, don't be afraid

I have loved you for a thousand years

I'll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you

Time has brought your heart to me

I have loved you for a thousand years

I'll love you for a thousand more

One step closer

One step closer

I have died every day waiting for you

Darling don't be afraid

I have loved you for a thousand years

I'll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you

Time has brought your heart to me

I have loved you for a thousand years

I'll love you for a thousand more

Ten Thousand Years Wont Save Your Life

I walked the world afar

Built up a thousand walls

To try and hide away

I see You in the days gone by

I went back to Miami and finally got some nice perspectives of Dame Zaha Hadid's building. Previously the sidewalk views were closed due to construction.

The lines and curves are spectacular, as you can see.

(I'll visit when I can. Those 13 hour drives are exhausting, especially in a U-Haul)

A Thousand Years - Sting

A thousand years, a thousand more

A thousand times a million doors to eternity

I may have lived a thousand lives, a thousand times

An endless turning stairway climbs

To a tower of souls

If it takes another thousand years, a thousand wars

The towers rise to numberless floors in space

I could shed another million tears, a million breaths

A million names but only one truth to face

A million roads, a million fears

A million suns, ten million years of uncertainty

I could speak a million lies, a million songs

A million rights, a million wrongs in this balance of time

But if there was a single truth, a single light

A single thought, a singular touch of grace

Then following this single point, this single flame

This single haunted memory of your face

I still love you

I still want you

A thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves

Like galaxies in my head

And on and on the mysteries unwind themselves

Eternities still unsaid

'Til you love me

I dare you to let me be your, your one and only

I promise I'm worthy,

To hold in your arms

So come on and give me the chance

To prove I am the one who can walk that mile

Until the end starts

Rose plants range in size from compact, miniature roses, to climbers that can reach seven meters in height.

RiseUp_Andra Day

You're broken down and tired

Of living life on a merry go round

And you can't find the fighter

But I see it in you so we gonna walk it out

And move mountains

We gonna walk it out

And move mountains

And I'll rise up

I'll rise like the day

I'll rise up

I'll rise unafraid

I'll rise up

And I'll do it a thousand times again

And I'll rise up

High like the waves

I'll rise up

In spite of the ache

I'll rise up

And I'll do it a thousands times again

For you

For you

For you

For you

When the silence isn't quiet

And it feels like it's getting hard to breathe

And I know you feel like dying

But I promise we'll take the world to its feet

And move mountains

We'll take it to its feet

And move mountains

The Roman bridge of Córdoba is a bridge in the Historic centre of Córdoba, Andalusia, southern Spain, originally built in the early 1st century BC across the Guadalquivir river, though it has been reconstructed at various times since. It is also known locally as the Old Bridge as for two thousand years, until the construction of the San Rafael Bridge in the mid-twentieth century, it was the city's only bridge across the river.

Most of the present structure dates from the Arabs reconstruction in the 8th century.

"My senses were gratified and refreshed by a thousand scents of delight and a thousand sights of beauty."

A collaboration between goat transforming into a cathedral

and myself.

Inspired by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley's "Frankenstein"

Thousands of years ago ...

He lay ...

but not sleep dear ..

His face is staring ...

and his frozen smile as if to say ...

"we are at war ...

we're fighting against the sun ...

For proof that we once existed ... and are on this earth ... "

It's been thousands of years ...

he is lying ..

but not sleep dear ..

a hole in his chest was still burning, like his spirit ...

His face is staring at the sky ...

and his frozen smile seemed to say

"I'm still so young ..."

That day is a day without a hero ...

a day that no one can help him ...

and he made a story

for this world ...

Revelation 20:1-3

New International Version

The Thousand Years

20 And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain. 2 He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. 3 He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time.

I guess you didn't.

Because all the stories are inside my eyes.
