Evening view of the iconic little church in Theth village, Albania, the bluer version was taken a few minutes after the warmer toned version. I thought I'd share both.

If you fave it, please, post a little comment, it's a pleasure, thanks a lot :-)

 

IMPORTANT:

 

I just noticed that many (40) of my photos had "lost" all the faves you had deposited! And this, for a reason that is unknown to me :-(( (Flickr bug?)

Most of them had received more than 50 favorites ...

I deposited them in a special album: www.flickr.com/photos/thethi/albums/72157693284042021

If you like them, do not hesitate to add them a favorite and so keep them for your slide shows :-) And so I can put them again in the « faves groups" they deserved.

In advance, thank you a lot.

The so called "accursed" mountains, or recently named Albanian Alps, seen from the road to Theth, an isolated village at the end of the road that is quite busy with tourists nowadays, and the prices are almost shockingly high for this part of Europe, the last 15 kilometers of the road was paved this year, I guess it has to be paid for somehow, at least they didn't fall for the Chinese loan trap the way Montenegro did.

Maurice Carême

LE BOULEAU

 

Chaque nuit, le bouleau

Du fond de mon jardin

Devient un long bateau

Qui descend ou l'Escaut

Ou la Meuse ou le Rhin.

Il court à l'Océan

Qu'il traverse en jouant

Avec les albatros,

Salue Valparaiso,

Crie bonjour à Tokyo

Et sourit à Formose.

Puis, dans le matin rose

Ayant longé le Pôle,

Des rades et des môles,

Lentement redevient

Bouleau de mon jardin.

"I know I'm human. And if you were all these things, then you'd just attack me right now, so some of you are still human. This thing doesn't want to show itself, it wants to hide inside an imitation. It'll fight if it has to, but it's vulnerable out in the open. If it takes us over, then it has no more enemies, nobody left to kill it. And then it's won." – R.J. MacReady, The Thing (1982)

This was taken just after sunset, looking directly into a crescent moon as it is setting in the west.

 

Even a small crescent moon provides an incredible amount of light, and this was a challenge to get enough foreground detail while shooting directly into the moon.

 

At night, there is something about this tree that really reminds me of that classic movie "The Thing", from 1982 starring Kurt Russell and directed by John Carpenter.

Aujourd'hui 27 septembre, c'est la fête de la Communauté française de Belgique (terme constitutionnel).

Aussi appelée de manière officieuse Communauté Wallonie-Bruxelles, elle est l'une des trois communautés fédérales de la Belgique. Elle a pour capitale Bruxelles.

Depuis le 15 juillet 1998, le drapeau wallon est également et officiellement celui de la Région wallonne, ce qu'il était officieusement depuis 65 ans (c'est la coq de Paulus, familièrement appelé coq hardi ou encore coq wallon, rouge sur fond jaune)
