“We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.”
Quote ― Plato
“The greatest tragedy in life is not death; the greatest tragedy takes place when our talents and capabilities are underutilised and allowed to rust while we are living.”
Mata Amritanandamayi
With the loss of 121 people out of 122 aboard, the loss of the wooden ship Dunbar had a major impact on Sydney. The wreck in 1857 is still the worst peacetime disaster to have occurred in New South Wales. It is remembered each year by memorial services held at St Stephens Church, Newtown, where many Dunbar victims were buried in a mass grave.

One of the greatest tragedies in life is to lose your
own sense of self and accept the version of you
that is expected by everyone else

Fuerte Bulnes, Punta Arenas, Chile
Fuerte Bulnes is a Chilean fort located by the Strait of Magellan, 62 km south of Punta Arenas. It was founded in 1843 on a rocky hill at Punta Santa Ana, under the command of President Manuel Bulnes Prieto.
The fort was built to further the president's colonization policies in Southern Chile and protect the Strait of Magellan. He directed construction to ward off claims by other nations. Chiloé's intendant (governor), Domingo Espiñeira Riesco, ordered construction of a schooner to sail to that location. He originally commissioned it in the president's name, but Bulnes had the ship renamed Goleta Ancud, for where it was built.
She sailed from Ancud on May 22, 1843, under command of Commander John Williams Wilson, Chilean Navy. (British-born, he joined the Chilean Navy in 1824, where he used a Hispanic version of his name and signed documents as Juan Guillermos.) He arrived at Punta Santa Ana on September 21, 1843, about 2 km from Puerto del Hambre. He directed the construction of a fort here, using mainly logs and dirt and grass 'bricks'.
Although the president wanted to establish a town, the harsh weather prevented attracting a large and stable population. As a result, after six years, the government founded Punta Arenas in the Sandy Point area in 1848. Once people had migrated there, military forces abandoned and destroyed the fort. Lieutenant Cambiazo supervised its burning.
Between 1941 and 1943, the government directed the fort to be reconstructed as a historic monument. The replica includes the church, chaplain's quarters, jail, powder magazine, post office and stables. It was declared a national monument in 1968. Today, it is administered by a private company.
Happy Monday Blues my Flickr Friends 😊 😊 😍
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
My deepest condolences to all those affected by this tragedy.
And my thoughts goes to every innocent human being in Paris regardless of nationality, colour, religion and other differences. Please only blame those directly responsible.
Impressively preserved Roman theater
construction begun shortly after the change of Era, in the Julio-Claudian era, and it was inaugurated in the times of Titus and Vespasian, around 78 AD. C., as indicated by a large monumental inscription whose remains have appeared among the ruins.
A few of you asked to see the final images from my vacation in Moldova. Actually, a day trip to Transnistria, a renegade province since 1992. Expect documentary shots as I was told to leave my real camera in Chisinau and only take photos with my mobile phone.
This is a monument you pass by when approaching Tiraspol that gradually got extended with each new tragedy. First, WW II which in this part of the world was the battle between Hitler's avid ally Romania and the Soviet Union. In front of it is a memorial for several thousand Moldovans killed in the immediate aftermath of Chernobyl when they were called to seal the reactor. The steles in the middle are for the fallen of the Afghanistan war. Finally, there is a huge table for the "independence war" of Transnistria when splitting from Moldova from 1990-1992.
I was trying to do something for valentine's day, but it's hard to be inspired by such a holiday when you don't have a significant other. :p
So instead, I of course did something completely opposite.

Just a way down the road from us, a huge tree had fallen across the neighbor's fence and had to be cut away. The fence was pretty much history.

This shot is in memory of HRH Prins Johan Friso who passed away 2 days ago after being in coma for a year and a half after he had a serious skiing accident. He used to be the patron of all windmills in the Netherlands. At the moment all the windmills are set in a specific state of mourning. Unfortunetely it is not the case in this shot,

Llegaremos, y a no tardar, a salir a la calle como si escapásemos de una jaula. Jaulas de oro, pero jaulas.

The images were discovered in silky, net-like cloth that had been filled
with colored paper cut out into various shapes, leaves, tissue, flowers,
sticks rope, string, cotton balls and other such matter. I then took several pictures, transferred them to Picasa and manipulated the pics and colors until this image popped into my eyes.
