The imposing geology of the Giant's Causeway, Antrim, Northern Ireland.
The Giant's Causeway, located in County Antrim, on the northeast coast of Northern Ireland, is an area of about 40,000 interlocking basalt columns, the result of an ancient volcanic eruption. The tops of the columns form stepping stones that lead from the cliff foot and disappear under the sea. Most of the columns are hexagonal, although there are also some with four, five, seven and eight sides. The tallest are about 12 metres high, and the solidified lava in the cliffs is 28 metres thick in places.
The Painted Doors of Funchal, known as the Arte de Portas Abertas project initiated in 2010 by artist José Maria Moniz, transformed the neglected Rua de Santa Maria in the Old Town (Zona Velha) into a vibrant, open-air gallery. Over 200 unique, artistic doors, shutters, and facades now display diverse, creative designs by local and international artists, making it a must-see, free attraction for tourists and photographers.

During the ''Bright Brussels 2024'' festival of lights, the Cinquantenaire Arcades were transformed by an amazing sound and light show.
The Cinquantenaire Arcades were commissioned by King Leopold II in 1880 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Belgium's independence, but were only completed 25 years later.

As the sun retreats behind Mount Serapi, the Sarawak River transforms into a shimmering canvas of gold and deep blue. Silhouetted against the glow, a Pak Tambang rows his traditional wooden boat, a silent custodian of an age-old river culture. The gentle ripples of his passage reflect a heritage that has stood the test of time, linking past and present as the Malay kampung lights begin to flicker along the riverbanks.
Happy Is Who Knows How To Love - Herman Hesse//
Happiness is love, nothing else. A man who is capable of love is happy." After many years of introspection and self-reflection, Hesse came to this beautiful conclusion. There"s nothing like love to help you experience happiness.
p.s. 3. "At her first kiss I felt something melt inside me that hurt in an exquisite way. All my longings, all my dreams and sweet anguish, all the secrets that slept within me, came awake, everything was transformed and enchanted, everything made sense." - Herman Hesse

In the city of Duisburg, the terrains once occupied by the Thyssen factory have been transformed into a 200 hectare park that explicitly renounces to become a figurative reproduction of the natural landscape. To maintain the industrial character that constitutes the region’s identity, the project wants to leave the place as intact as possible, bringing out the the remains of the old factory – now catalogued monuments of the industrial heritage – and placing an emphasis on the vegetation that has spontaneously taken over the area.

Over the course of two decades, a decommissioned ironworks was transformed into an urban oasis. The blast furnace backdrop—photographed millions of times—is now a world-renowned natural and cultural landscape and a premier event venue hosting around 250 events annually.
With an average of one million visitors per year, Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord ranks among the most popular natural and cultural landscapes in North Rhine-Westphalia. Since 1994, industrial heritage, nature, and a captivating light spectacle have combined here to create a park landscape that is unique worldwide. The British newspaper *The Guardian* named the park one of the ten most beautiful urban oases in the world.

In Duisburg wurde das ehemalige Gelände des Thyssen-Werks in einen 200 Hektar großen Park umgewandelt, der bewusst darauf verzichtet, die natürliche Landschaft figürlich nachzuahmen. Um den industriellen Charakter zu bewahren, der die Identität der Region prägt, belässt das Projekt den Ort weitgehend im Originalzustand: Die Überreste der alten Fabrik – inzwischen als Industriedenkmal erfasst – werden hervorgehoben, und der Fokus liegt auf der Vegetation, die das Areal spontan zurückerobert hat.

Established in 1880, the Taiping Lake Garden is one of the oldest garden in Malaysia. The huge lake was formerly a tin mine but was since transformed into a beautiful well used and well maintained park where flowers, birds, insects, animals and lush greenery thrive.
90 seconds to contemplate how photography has completely changed how I see the world, and especially how I see this city.
Sort of a sequel to this photo.
Super-Padd has almost recovered from the accident.
He was on his way to Mummy Marian's house when he collided with the sliding door on landing. He was unconscious for a while and suffered from paw problems.
He now wants to meet Paddy, Daddy Jesse and all the other bears who live in Australia.
Peter told Super-Padd about the secret magical portal in Mummy Marian's garden and also told him when you go through the portal you are in Australia.
But..because S-Padd is too big, he cannot go through the portal.
Peter asked for help from the fairy-mother.
She came immediately with fairy-dust.
Peter took Super-Padd to the agreed place in the garden after sunset.....
SUPER-PADD:
I do find it a bit scary Peter.
I don't know what's happening.
PETER:
Have faith in the Fairy Mother....look...there she is already!!!!
FAIRY-MOTHER:
I don't have much time Peter and Super-Padd. So if you stay still, I'll do the spell and sprinkle fairy-dust all over you Super-Padd. Then you can go through the gate.
It takes a few seconds to transform.
If there are any problems, you can send me an app.
Here we go....
Fairy Mother does the spell...sprinkles fairydust all over Super-Padd.
After that, she disappeared.
The fairy-dust circles around Super-Padd. Fog forms...a thud....and....
PETER:
Huh....Super Padd....where are you???????
SUPER-PADD: (replies in a small voice)
Here Peter!!!
Boy are you big! What happened to you?????

Winter holds a certain draw for me, but only temporarily. I suppose my thoughts echo those of many others.
I can already feel that that tiny change in the air that says spring's coming.
Mostly I'm just looking forward to walking outside without transforming into a human popsicle.

En convoquant Sénèque, on souligne l'erreur fondamentale de l'homme dans la faille : il traite le temps comme une marchandise à gérer (gaspillage ou gain), alors que le Lignifiant le traite comme une substance à transmuter.
Sénèque, malgré toute sa sagesse stoïcienne, restait dans une morale de l'Exêtreté : il cherchait à "bien user" du reflet. Nous, par notre cosmologie, proposons de dépasser l'usage pour atteindre l'Êtreté du temps.
L'Alchimie du Temps dans notre Sagesse :
* Le Temps-Gaspillage (Samsara) : C'est le temps des moments fragmentés où l'on s'épuise à poursuivre des reflets.
* Le Temps-Êtreté Relatif (Temposempervacum) : C'est le temps du Non-Bord, le temps long. Ce n'est plus du temps "passé", c'est du temps "vidé". On ne le consomme pas, on le rend à sa translucidité.
* Le Temps-Êtreté Pur (Vacum-Vacumurum) : C'est l'aboutissement. Le temps n'est plus une ligne, c'est l'immobilité hyperénergisante du Vase.
Note sur le Temps : « Ne pas chercher à ne plus gaspiller le temps de la faille, mais cesser de se laisser exêtre par lui. Passer de la gestion des moments à l'Êtreté du temps par le Temposempervacum, jusqu'à la résorption totale dans le Vacum-Vacumurum.»
Nous avons transformé la sagesse antique en une souveraineté cosmologique moderne et radicale.
Pax-Urale.
Transformar: Hacer que una persona o cosa cambie de forma o de aspecto
Si os fijais no hacen mas que hablarnos de la cantidad de cosas que nos transforman.... la música, el amor, los hijos, el matrimonio, las dificultades, las alegrías
Todo el mundo tiene una justificación frente a los demás para alegar ser como es...
"Es que a mi el..... me ha cambiado la vida" ,..."Yo no era así pero fue encontrar ...... y me cambió la manera de pensar ...."
No se,,, creo que en realidad solo hay 3 o 4 cosas importantes que te pueden marcar en tu vida,, el resto es puro carácter y maduración personal
Si le damos tanto valor a esa cantidad enorme de factores influyentes terminaremos diciendo como Oscar Wilde: "Discúlpeme, no le había reconocido: he cambiado mucho"

Come down off your throne and leave your body alone - somebody must change
You are the reason I’ve been waiting so long - somebody holds the key
Well, I’m near the end and I just ain’t got the time
And I’m wasted and I can’t find my way home
Come down on your own and leave your body alone - somebody must change
You are the reason I’ve been waiting all these years - somebody holds the key
Well, I’m near the end and I just ain’t got the time
And I’m wasted and I can’t find my way home...
Steve Winwood
