The Hydrangeas did very well this year, although in general the heads are smaller probably due to the hot summer.
Now some have been dried and form a lovely dash of colour in the room.
Hydrangea, the name, comes from the Greek words "hydro" or water, and "angeion," or vase = water vase, they prefer a lot of water.
A very ancient plant, found in fossils going back thousands of years.
Flower lovers will know that there is a flower language.
Every sentiment is expressed in one form or another by delicate blooms.
Of course, even the experts disagree on the "true meaning" of many flowers and most have different meanings to different people.
So, while all flowers convey thoughtfulness and love, a gift of flowers for a special someone will always create its own personal meaning, too.
HYDRANGEA - Thank You for Understanding.
Have a wonderful day and thank you for your comments with all my heart, M, (*_*)

One day, almost unnoticed, I started saying to myself: The only way to be saved is to suffer.
I have no idea why I thought that. I mean literally - no idea. Just popped into my head.
I Googled it to see why those exact words landed on me. The first 3 results were bible verses: "If anyone's work is burned up, he will experience loss, but he himself will be saved--but only as through fire."
Interesting. Now I'm not a religious person (and this is not meant to be a religious post, but an academic/analytical one) but any text that talks about "work", "burned", "loss", "saved", and "fire" in the same sentence is speaking my poetic language.
- "If your work is burned up" - as artists, it happens all the time, metaphorically. We submit our cumulative efforts for judgment when we release what we've made, and in that submission, we lay bare and take it.
- "he will experience loss, but he himself will be saved" - the act of creating is the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth, as it must be if we are to create something meaningful. It is release - letting of pieces of ourselves.
- "but only as through fire" - hardship and joy are the two things that connect the world. We mourn together, we rejoice together. Thus, they are the two things that connect us to ourselves. We mourn inside ourselves, over and over again, and when we find ourselves ready to keep going, we have a greater understanding of what makes us individual.
As in this image - sinking to save myself - I play with surrealism, texture, form, the sense of boiling skin and rough water. Sometimes we are saved by sinking. A cleansing. And when we emerge, we know something about ourselves that was previously hidden.

Jackson Browne - Fountain of Sorrow
"Looking through some photographs I found inside a drawer.
I was taken by a photograph of you.
There were one or two I know that you would have liked a little more,
But they didn't show your spirit quite as true.
You were turning around to see who was behind you, and I took your childish laughter by surprise,
And at the moment that my camera happened to find you,
There was just a trace of sorrow in your eyes..."

Ha'a'aah in Navajo refers to sunrise. As my respect and understanding of this mysterious landscape of beauty increases with every return, I find my heart growing fonder for it. For its role in John Wayne culture, its spiritual significance for the Navajo people, and its peace inspiring cycle of days and nights, I will surely return and pay my respects.

"How could rocks and sand and silence make us afraid and yet be so wonderful?”
- Edna Brush Perkins, The White Heart of Mojave, 1922
Finally visited Death Valley over the holidays, and, as always when visiting a new-to-me National Park, I left a little piece of my soul, there. Death Valley is unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. I thought I was prepared. I thought it would be similar to other long awaited first visits to other national parks where the experience feels familiar and welcoming, as if you are stepping into a book that you’ve read for a very long time. Death Valley did not do this to me. No book can prepare you for Death Valley. The only way to become acquainted with the inconceivable vastness of the valley and sand and salt that’s only defined by towering walls of stony mountains is to be immersed in it. Death Valley is a challenge. It is a challenge to understand and experience and exist in. To be here is to be immersed in a forbidding environment and accept that this miraculous landscape is not for the faint of heart. I’ll be back, Death Valley. We have more work to do.

Samhain Modern Witches
Traditional Celebration of Samhain
Samhain harbored great significance for the Celt people, who believed that at this time of year, the veil between the worlds of the living and the dead was at its thinnest. Consequently, they saw Samhain as an ideal time to honor their deceased ancestors and loved ones. Similar to Día de Los Muertos in Mexico and All Saints' Day in Christian cultures, Samhain saw the Celts gathering around bonfires, sharing food and drink, and telling stories.

This set of images is what I live for... Those epic moments when you finally hunted/found what your looking for. It does take a lot of patience to storm chase. The waiting, the planning, the doing. But the rewards at the end are priceless. My antlers on the wall.
Now for some storm chasers... the Holy Grail of Storm chasing is a Tornado. But not for me. It is events like this that give the full definition of Storm Chasing. It really what storm chasing Eye Candy is all about! It is the "Why" or the understanding of why I do this!
One the edge of this Nebraska Supercell I felt the AWE of Mother Nature!

"(What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love, and Understanding" is a 1974 song written by English singer/songwriter Nick Lowe. Initially released by Lowe in 1974, the song did not chart. The song was most famously covered by Elvis Costello & the Attractions and released as a B-side to Lowe's 1978 solo single "American Squirm." The cover saw great popularity and was later included on the American version of Costello's 1979 album Armed Forces. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/(What%27s_So_Funny_%27Bout)_Peace,_Love,_and_Understanding

Sometimes after he does his chores, Skippy likes to stop and get a bite to eat at one of his favorite neighborhood restaurants. Sometimes he sees his friends there, and this day was no different.
The little man was having a hard time peeling his orange and stood up in his booth, turned around, and before he could even ask the question, his buddy Mikel, without even looking, opened his hand for the tricky fruit and raised his katana.
Skippy smiled to himself and felt so happy inside, reminded that sometimes you don’t even have to ask for help. Sometimes your friends just know.
The little man created his universe using the following:

The ancient Greek philosopher, Pythagoras, postulated that the meaning behind numbers was deeply significant. In their eyes the number 3 was considered as the perfect number, the number of harmony, wisdom and understanding. It was also the number of time – past, present, future; birth, life, death; beginning, middle, end – it was the number of the divine.
Remember the inner demanding voice of your childhood that urged you to approach the ice cream truck whenever it rolled around? This little boy did not hesitate when he saw it. He parked his bike with determination.

There is no doubt that once you know the story behind a photo that there is a better understanding of its contents. The big challenge to photographers is to be able to tell the story with only the image. The other thing is that it is not really necessary to feel the same emotion the photographer has, but rather that a response is made that triggers off a connection to something in the viewers life or reveals information that is new to him. --

Second Coming of Jesus | "When It Comes to God, What Is Your Understanding"
www.holyspiritspeaks.org/videos/utterance-when-it-comes-t...
Introduction
Almighty God says, "The so-called God is not only the Holy Spirit, that Spirit, the sevenfold intensified Spirit, the all-encompassing Spirit, but also a person, an ordinary person, an exceptionally common person. He is not only male, but also female. They are similar in that They are both born to humans, and dissimilar in that one is conceived by the Holy Spirit and the other is born to a human but derived directly from the Spirit. They are similar in that both incarnate fleshes of God carry out God the Father’s work, and dissimilar in that one does the work of redemption and the other does the work of conquering. Both represent God the Father, but one is the Lord of redemption filled with lovingkindness and mercy, and the other is the God of righteousness filled with wrath and judgment. One is the Supreme Commander to launch the redemption work, and the other is the righteous God to accomplish the work of conquering. One is the Beginning, the other the End. One is sinless flesh, the other is flesh that completes the redemption, continues the work, and is never of sin. Both are the same Spirit, but They dwell in different fleshes and are born in different places. And They are separated by several thousand years. Yet all Their work is mutually complementary, never conflictual, and can be spoken of in the same breath. Both are people, but one is a baby boy and the other is an infant girl."

Bali (Indonésie) - Il vient de pleuvoir et je me suis réfugié dans une palmeraie. L’averse passée, le soleil revient immédiatement, comme souvent en Asie. Je reprends ma route et un kilomètre plus loin, je tombe sur un paysage à tomber par terre.
A l’époque, il m’arrive encore de photographier des paysages sans présence humaine. Je m’arrête sur le bord de la route qui surplombe des cultures en terrasses.
Quelques photos plus tard je m’apprête à repartir quand j’aperçois en contre-bas cet homme qui remonte tranquillement.
Je lui adresse un petit signe en guise de" bonjour" auquel il répond. Quand il arrive à ma hauteur, jej fais cette photo. Nous parlons quelques instants sans vraiment nous comprendre, chacun dans sa langue. Mais le courant passe visiblement.
Pour cette photo, je n'ai pas respecté la composition classique en plaçant le sujet pratiquement au centre de l'image car je voulais intégrer un bout de rizière que l'on aperçoit en arrière-plan sur la droite de l'image. Ce portrait aurait eu moins d'intérêt sans son environnement.. Et puis les deux paniers remplis d'herbe rééquilibrent l’ensemble.

Bali (Indonesia) - It just rained and I took refuge in a palm grove. After the downpour, the sun returns immediately, as it often does in Asia. I resume my journey and a kilometer further, I come across a landscape to die for.
Back then, I still photographed landscapes without human presence. I stop on the side of the road which overlooks terraced crops.
A few photos later I am about to leave when I see this man quietly ascending below.
I give him a little sign as a "hello" to which he responds. When he gets to my height, jej take this photo. We speak for a few moments without really understanding each other, each in their own language. But the current is visibly flowing.
For this photo, I did not respect the classic composition by placing the subject practically in the center of the image because I wanted to integrate a piece of rice field that can be seen in the background on the right of the image. This portrait would have been less interesting without its environment. And then the two baskets filled with grass rebalance the whole.
I am dedicating this image to all my Flickr friends.
To those of you who know that we have been downsizing our company, thanks for understanding about my lack of consistency in visits to your photostream. And to those of you who wondered why I haven't been around, now you know.
We have had our theatre and props company for nearly 30 years, and my husband and I finally decided that enough was enough. So, we gave away all of my beloved props to a local church. Well, almost all, as I simply couldn't part with a few things like my knights in armor. Today the church will pick up the costumes, too.
It's been a hard run, but it's nearly over. (See the comment image.) By Monday, I will make up for my lack of attention to your images. I promise.
Iin the meantime, will you bear with me just a couple more days?
Please accept my sincerest thanks for your kind visits and comments. I want you to know that I would never take advantage of you.
Besides, I would much rather be playing with my friends on Flickr, and taking pictures than cleaning a stupid warehouse.
Will Monday ever come?

The Royal Scottish Academy of Art and Architecture (RSA) is an independently funded organisation which supports the creation, understanding and enjoyment of the visual arts in Scotland. Based within the Royal Scottish Academy building, the RSA runs a year-round programme of exhibitions, artist opportunities and related educational talks and events which support artists at all stages of their careers. The RSA also holds an extensive collection and archive.
Led by eminent artists and architects, the RSA embodies a wealth of professional experience in Fine Art and Architecture, with many RSA members taking a leading role in higher education and many of the leading cultural institutions in Scotland.
The ‘Scottish Academy’ was founded in 1826 by a group of eleven artists. It was created with the aim of creating an academy of fine arts instructing students at no charge, to present an annual exhibition open to all artists of merit and maintain a library devoted to the fine arts.
The Academy held its first exhibition in 1827 and in 1835 had been granted permission to lease space within the Royal Institution building on the Mound for its annual exhibition. By 1838, the Academy had gained a Royal Charter (and was now known as the Royal Scottish Academy) and it continued to grow in significance and status throughout the nineteenth century, training young artists and looking after its collection for the benefit of students and the wider public.
The founders of the RSA also held a strong desire that Scotland should have a National Gallery of its own and as they continued to expand and place demands on the space within the Royal Institution, it was clear that they required new premises. Therefore, when a new purpose built gallery was designed and constructed in the 1850’s, the Royal Scottish Academy moved in alongside the newly created National Gallery of Scotland (today part of the Scottish National Gallery), hosting its exhibitions within the gallery, as well as having its council room, library and life school within the building. It continued to teach Fine Art in the gallery until the Edinburgh College of Art was formed in 1907.
In 1910, it was decided that the RSA should be transferred back into the Royal Institution Building and be awarded permanent tenancy of office space and the right to hold its annual exhibition within the building. The building then became known as ‘The Royal Scottish Academy’. In return, the RSA gifted ninety-six paintings and sculptures and approximately two-thousand drawings to the National Gallery of Scotland, and are still part of the national collection.
The latest phase in the history of the RSA saw the construction of an underground link between the Royal Scottish Academy Building and the National Gallery of Scotland (as it was then known). Award-winning architects John Miller and Partners rose to the challenge of redeveloping the buildings for modern use.
The Royal Scottish Academy building reopened in 2004 and is now a world-class exhibition space, while the underground Gardens Level houses a range of visitor facilities and education spaces. The Royal Scottish Academy Building now plays host to a variety of exhibitions programmed by the National Galleries of Scotland, the Royal Scottish Academy of Art and Architecture, and others.

*Not the brand or technique is important in photographic art, but the understanding of the things behind the photographed subjects, the emotion, the composition, the joy or the sadness, the life itself that is mysteriously coming unrepeatable as a gift.
(Horia Stanicel)
* I have seen a large part of the most popular or devoted photographers' photographs over time and of course I can say that most of them have speculated on different situations, angles of photography, shadows, different brightness, feelings, human tragedies, all kinds of paradoxical situations that of course make them noticed. I do not want to bring any name into question for the simple reason that each photographic artist has a unique value. However, I regard the photographic art as a simple spectator that is difficult to be convince most of the times. I contemplate the creation of God and every time I photograph I do not forget how grateful we should be for all the beauty that our Creator gave it to us! People who forget this do nothing but hate themselves and the world they live in and photography is nothing but a mirror of this beautiful or crooked world.(Horia Stanicel)
*Nu aparatul foto sau tehnica este importantă în arta fotografică, ci înțelegerea lucrurilor care stau în spatele subiectelor fotografiate,emoția, compoziția, bucuria sau tristețea, viața însăși care vine tainic irepetabil ca un dar.
(Horia Stanicel)
*Am văzut o mare parte a fotografiilor celor mai populari sau consacrați artiști fotografi de-a lungul timpului și desigur pot spune că majoritatea dintre ei au speculat diversele situații,unghiuri de fotografiere, umbre, luminozitati diferite,sentimente,tragedii umane chiar,tot felul de situații paradoxale care desigur să-i facă remarcați.Nu vreau să aduc vreun nume în discuție pentru simplul motiv că fiecare artist fotograf are o valoare unică. Totuși eu privesc arta fotografică ca un simplu spectator greu de convins de cele mai multe ori.Eu contemplu creația lui Dumnezeu și de fiecare dată când fotografiez nu uit cât de recunoscători ar trebui să fim pentru toată frumusețea pe care Creatorul nostru ne-a daruit-o! Oamenii care uită aceasta nu fac decât să se urâțească pe ei înșiși dar și lumea în care trăiesc iar fotografia nu este decât o oglindă a acestei lumi frumoase sau urâțite.

Ode to a Graveyard
Where iron will fades into sleep
Where fair and foul square off in peace
Where crusty silence greets the morn
Where old is spent and fresh is born.
Where eternal grips with gnarled claw
Where moldy dew taps gentle paw
Where rock grows soft with clinging veil
Where wind entombs her endless wail.
Where steely stillness seeks the sun
Where sweetened dusk is never done
Where tender love creeps bleeding by
Where mothers mourn,
And lovers cry.

Interesting facts:This bird is also known in the U.S. as a "chicken hawk." They may target chickens as preys. As a consequence, dead hawks hanging from fences and lying under trees and power poles are mute evidence that shooters, not understanding the economic or esthetic importance of raptors, or perhaps unaware of protective laws, still kill them indiscriminately.....(www. desertUSA.com)

At first glance, the galaxy NGC 4151 looks like an average spiral. Examine its center more closely, though, and you can spot a bright smudge that stands out from the softer glow around it. That point of light marks the location of a supermassive black hole weighing about 40 million times as much as our Sun.
Astronomers will use NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope to measure that black hole’s mass. The result might seem like a piece of trivia, but its mass determines how a black hole feeds and affects the surrounding galaxy. And since most galaxies contain a supermassive black hole, learning about this nearby galaxy will improve our understanding of many galaxies across the cosmos.
