I have been away from making pics for a bit....but trying to get back in the swing....This is a pic of a statue that we did have at our SL home. (Now in my inventory--as Clive and I tend to "redecorate a lot" LOL!).....but I was struck by this piece for long while.....and this is what my mind saw. 🌸🌸🌸
Das vergangene Pfingstwochenende war sehr ereignisreich für mich. Samstags war ich auf einer Veranstaltung meines Sportvereins aktiv und Pfingstsonntag ging es für David und mich an die Natobahn, doch dazu komme ich vielleicht zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt.
Pfingstmontag sollte etwas ruhiger angegangen werden. Zunächst waren am Vormittag im Garten meiner Schwiegermutter in spe aktiv. Danach ging es am Mittag zu uns in den Garten, wo wir den Grill für ein leckeres Mittagessen anschmissen. Nach dem Essen wurde dann spontan beschlossen nach Rheine Mesum zu fahren. Anlass dafür war zum einen der Crafterzug Richtung Bad Bentheim, welcher an jenem Pfingstmontag den Weg über Paderborn, Hamm und Münster nehmen sollte, um bei Stadthagen die Betra zu umfahren. Als Zugabe wollten David und ich noch den Hetzerather Säuferzug in Mesum erlegen, welcher mit einer der neulackierten TCS 101er bespannt war. Zwei interessante Züge an einem Abend hat man an dieser Fotostelle auch nicht so oft. Doch aus dem Hetzerather Säuferzug wurde am Ende leider nichts, denn dieser endete am Pfingstmontag bereits in Münster, statt in Rheine. Zum Glück blieb uns noch der Crafterzug, denn sonst wäre die Anreise umsonst gewesen. Um 19:10 Uhr schlossen sich die Schranken hinter uns und die 6 anwesenden Fotografen aus Deutschland und den Niederlanden konnten die DeltaRail 243 931-3 mit ihrem Crafterzug nach Amersfoort perfekt auf die Speicherkarte brennen. Für David und mich war es das zweite Mal binnen vier Wochen, dass wir den Crafterzug mit einer DeltaRail 143 im Norden von NRW aufnehmen konnten.
Viele Grüße an dieser Stelle an den bekannten Fotokollegen aus den Niederlanden, hat mich gefreut dich persönlich kennenzulernen.
In the minds of mad men
Echoes the darkness of wars,
And in that dark grows the
Media images of death and destruction.
And from the shade of our limitations,
we will scream into the void, peace and freedom, then close our eyes and pray, his,
is not the hand that stops the ticking clock.
When the bidding is done, the madness will stop, but only for a while, and we will try and release this Dove with a broken wing, and call it peace.

Our local war memorial, a day after the hail storm. Somebody had taken a planter, filled it with soil and stuck a couple of British Legion wooden poppy crosses in. Now covered in water. When you plant something, then I would think with the expectation of growth. I wonder what the expectation was - the death of millions as the seeds of peace? No more war?

Ooh, a storm is threatening
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Ooh yeah I'm gonna fade away
War, children
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Ooh, see the fire is sweepin'
Our streets today
Burns like a red coal carpet
Mad bull lost its way
War, children
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Bir günlük yolculuktan arta kalanlar.. :) --->
The remains after a one day trip... :)
İlginç bir gündü :) Müthiş bir yağmur ve dağların arkasından sızan harika güneş ışıkları :) Bolu tarafını seviyorum :P

They fought the longest war in american history.
They fought the longest war in american history.
In 1965 Vietnam seemed like just another foreign war
But it wasn't
It was different in many ways
And so were those who did the fighting
In world war two the average age of the combat soldier was 26
In Vietnam he was 19 . . .
...Dank einer Recht großen Verspätung war es am 18.11.2020 möglich den Normal am Vormittag Fahrenden gemischt Zug aus Zwickau zu fotografieren. Direkt nach der Arbeit ging es an den Nürnberger Ostbahnhof und dabei hätten mein Kollege und ich keine Minute länger brauchen dürfen. An der Stelle angekommen sahen wir bereits das das Ausfahrsignal in Richtung Dutzendteich Hp2 zeigte. Da war uns klar jetzt ist Eile angesagt also rauf auf die Feuertreppe der angrenzenden Schule und Kameras raus. Oben angekommen gelang es gerade noch die Kameras einzustellen da fuhr auch schon 232 472 mit ihrem 17 Wagen starken Zug und einer V60 am Zugschluss durchs Bild. Zufrieden könnten wir danach entspannt die Treppe wieder hinunter steigen.
Some folks are born made to wave the flag
Ooh, they're red, white and blue
And when the band plays "Hail to the chief"
Ooh, they point the cannon at you, Lord …………
And when you ask them, "How much should we give?"
Ooh, they only answer "More! More! More!"

During our War Horse walk (see previous upload), we did encounter many Dartmoor ponies. This one at least had the same nice brown colour like Joey from the film but missing the white socks and spot on the head. I took this photo next to Drizzlecombe, a fantastic Bronze age settlement with long stone rows, round houses, cists and huge standing stones..very impressive!
'Conflict is inevitable, but combat is optional.' (Max Lucado)
Will there be a day, when all leaders of the world will become teachers, who will teach peace to their people?
Will there be a day, when all children of the world will learn peace, and their choices will not be driven by fear or hatred, but reason and love instead?
Will there be a day, when those children will grow up and be the new leaders for us who will create a world, where the idea of war will be as far as the idea of slavery in today's world?
Will there be a day, when in a war-free world, all humans can collectively commemorate the defeat of Mars - God of War, with a statue of remembrance, the marking of the greatest achievement of human mankind?
...
Fanaticism, patriotism, profitism, all the many delusional psychopathic thought chains and lies leading towards fear, death, destruction and cross-generational suffering. Leaders of nations should know better, speak better and do better - they should all lead and transcend their people further and away from those thoughts for a better world for our children.
In the absence of leaders who serve humanity from the positions they occupy, we all need to be the teachers and leaders to our people and our children instead. We all should talk to them about their choices, about love, about the ways of leaving Mars behind, so one day we can build that final statue of Mars, and send it away from Earth to where it belongs, to planet Mars instead.
