Did we forget to include enough staff and lifeboats, when we were building the big shiny ships..?
Great wealth often comes from exploitation, child labor, weapons and drug dealing. Not always but often ...

L'amica Linda (che non è solo un' eccellente artista della fotografia, ma è anche ricca di conoscenza) con le sue parole sulla mia foto precedente ha suscitato vari ed interessanti commenti che mi hanno spinto a postare questa immagine del Ponte dei Draghi composta da tre sculture differenti, tutte rappresentanti il Drago sconfitto dal mitico argonauta Giasone, ma poi diventato il simbolo protettore della bella capitale della Slovenia

Serra do Amolar in Pantanal is a place almost untouched by the hands of man. It is the last frontier of the Pantanal with an enormous natural wealth. Altogether, there are 80km of mountains spread over 300 thousand hectares between the states of Mato Grosso do Sul and Mato Grosso as well as Bolivia. Serra do Amolar in Pantanal is surely one of Brazil’s best kept secrets. One of the biggest challenges for the conservation of Serra do Amolar has happened in 2020, when 90% of Serra do Amolar was taken by fire. Many animals died and part of the vegetation remains charred to this day, as if to remind us of the dangers of environmental imbalance in this biome so dependent on rain cycles and so affected by human action. This picture is an aerial view from 2018, when I visited this stunning place.
Wishing everyone a peaceful Travel Tuesday.
Thanks a lot for your visits, comments, faves, invites, etc. Very much appreciated!

What a special and beautiful way to start Thanksgiving day! Spending this beautiful sunrise with my wife and the Lord is something I am truly thankful for. Even more so as I look back on this past year and am very thankful for the Lord's provision in our lives and His steadfast love! After losing two jobs and the financial hardship it caused it was truly beautiful to see the Lord provide for our every need. He did not just provide for us in the physical, but also the emotional and spiritual as well. We are rich together because of the love of Christ, not in worldly riches or wealth, but Christ is our true treasure! Our hearts are made full because of His love that overflows within us!
I got to take this picture on Thanksgiving morning in Outer Banks, NC during strong winds that harshly blew the sand against us and my equipment. I am thankful for the opportunity to witness the beautiful majesty of the Lord!
August sees a wealth of sunflowers in the small field next to St Hubert's Church at Idsworth but, among the sunny yellow blooms, wildflowers such as these pink cosmos are also to be found.
Wikipedia states..."Chives, (scientific name...Schoenoprasum), is an edible species of the genus Allium. Its close relatives include the garlic, shallot, leek, scallion, and Chinese onion."
What I know about this beautiful plant is that the bees love to traverse the hills and valleys of this flower. Once the bloom has faded, you'll find tiny black seeds inside the folds of each blossom. What a great way to spread the wealth. Life is wonderful that way!
Stay close. Wait for the trickle-down effect. You know that there is a very good reason, they say, that governments should help the rich to get richer even easier and much faster. Yes, it is the trickle-down effect. One day, eventually that is, some of the new wealth will trickle down into my watering can and make me rich too. I live in hope. And I am staying ever so close to my watering can. Helios 44M-7 manual lens at F2, one LED lamp.
A much-restored Tudor House that dates back to 1556, park and garden with notable topiary and renowned for the garden of yews.
It's a Grade I listed building, has a wealth of tapestries and fine furniture.
I thoroughly recommend a visit if you get the chance.

Wealth is power. With wealth many things are possible.
George Clason
Power is not all bad, if wielded properly, you can change the world for the better. It gets a bad name from those who abuse it.
For those who may think power is bad, remember the power of Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Jr., Princess Diana, and others who sought to bring positive changes to the world.
Can you believe they want to raise our taxes?
Unreal. It's total class warfare, is what it is.
This commie wealth redistribution has to stop. I mean, I may have to sell one of my airplanes.
Too outrageous to even consider.
Say, I don't believe we've been introduced.
Oh, I just saw this fancy party, and wandered in.
You weren't actually invited? How interesting.
Yes, and it will be more interesting once you give me your wallet.
My. . . what did you say?
I'm taking the wealth redistribution thing personally.
So it appears.

The Tiger symbolism
More than just prized for its beauty and majesty, the tiger bears a greater symbolism in Chinese culture. In China, the tiger is considered the king of all beasts as it symbolises power and a great deal of nerve. It is also known as the king of the mountain.
In traditional Chinese culture, the tiger is also a symbol of luck. Considered to be an embodiment of “yang” – or positive – energy, the tiger is a ‘solar animal’ in Yin-and-Yang philosophy, and associated with the sun, summer and fire. They symbolise Power, Energy, Royalty, Protection, Generosity, Illumination, and Unpredictability.
This fearless creature is also revered as the symbol that wards off the main disasters of a household – ghosts, fire, and thieves. To this day, images of tigers and dragons are often paired on walls of temples. The head of the tiger used to be painted on soldiers’ shields in order to terrify the enemy. Tigers are also associated with the God of Wealth, who is often seen sitting on a tiger in Asian art.
In ancient Chinese myth, there are five tigers that hold the balance of cosmic forces and maintain harmony.
The five Asian tigers and their meanings are:
White Tiger – ruler of the Fall season and governor of the Metal elementals.
Black Tiger – ruler of the Winter season and governor of the Water elementals.
Blue Tiger – ruler of the Spring season and governor of the Earth elementals.
Red Tiger – ruler of the Summer season and governor of the Fire elementals.
Yellow Tiger – the supreme ruler of all these tigers and symbolic of the Sun.
Tigers figure largely in Chinese classical literature and performance art. They are also the main protagonists of many folk tales and proverbs. The tiger image in China is synonymous with success and achievement. The symbolism of the Tiger in Chinese culture is as diverse as the noble creature itself.

Fountain Of Wealth
Supported by four 13.8 metres high bronze legs and spreading over an area of 1683.07 metres, the Fountain of Wealth has been accorded the status of "World's Largest Fountain" in the 1998 edition of the Guinness Book of Records. It is symbolically the ring in the palm of the hand, guaranteeing the retention of wealth. It is destined to be Singapore's most visited tourist destination.
The plaza would provide a large outdoor space for people to gather. But on its own, it would not achieve sufficient visual impact. A dramatic fountain was proposed as a visual focus. The Fountain Plaza, now the focal point of Suntec City, is also at the heart of the Marina Centre area. Not only is it the hub of circulation within the development, it also draws life from the surrounding buildings. This is why it sits off centre within Suntec City -so that it can be directly connected to its neighbours.
The flowing water from the Fountain is also a potent symbol as water is the essence of life in almost every culture. Located round this symbolic centre of life are the buildings which make up Suntec City. These buildings attract human activity - life - to the area. At ground level, vehicles flow around the fountain plaza while pedestrians flow into the buildings around it. Below ground, at the Fountain Terrace, all the buildings are interconnected by shops and restaurants. The complex is also connected to its neighbours by both underground and street-level pedestrian linkways.
Excerpt from uwaterloo.ca:
Description of the District
The MacNab-Charles Heritage Conservation District is a one
block area bounded by MacNab Street South, Hurst Place,
Charles Street and Bold Street in the City of Hamilton. The
district consists of seven properties. These properties include
two multi-unit residences, a church and manse, two residential
properties and offices.
Cultural Heritage Value of the District
According to a plaque, the cultural heritage value of the district lies in the fact that:
The downtown block of MacNab Street South, Hurst Place, Charles Street and Bold Street contains a unique collection of stone buildings primarily dating from the 1850s.
While stone architecture was relatively rare in Ontario, Hamilton’s Mountain offered a ready supply of limestone. The local resource was used to great advantage in the hands of the newly-arrived Scottish stonemasons, establishing pre-Confederation Hamilton as a city renowned for its wealth of handsome stone
architecture.
With the MacNab Street Presbyterian Church as the focal point, the Victorian stone and brick streetscape of MacNab-Charles evoke a genuine sense of history in the heart of this city.
Designation of the District
The designation of the MacNab Charles Heritage Conservation District was initiated by the City Hamilton.
The Study and Plan were conducted and written between 1986 and 1988 by the Local Planning Branch, Planning and Development Department and the Hamilton-Wentworth Region. It was carried out in consultation with a local District Steering Committee made up of owners from the area.
The MacNab-Charles Heritage Conservation District is protected by By-law 90-144 which was passed on May 9, 1990 by the City of Hamilton.
