- le rouge gorge :

je suis à fond sur le champignon, et je devrais y aller à toute vitesse, je devrais sentir le vent sur les plumes, comme on me l'a affirmé, mais là, il ne se passe rien...Que faire, et quelle déception...

- le champignon :

oh là ! je te croyais tout léger, mais c'est pas le cas : tu fais pencher mon chapeau !!!

 

Visible de tous côtés à l'approche d'Albi, la Cathédrale Sainte-Cécile, imposante par sa hauteur et la majesté de son clocher, est comme un phare qui balise la route et invite à s'en approcher. Deux siècles auront été nécessaires pour son édification, de 1282 à 1480.

L'édifice surprend par le contraste entre son allure extérieure austère de forteresse militaire et la richesse picturale et sculpturale de son intérieur. Monument sans égal, elle affirme sa puissance à travers un style typique du Sud-Ouest de la France, le « gothique méridional ». Son style, unique, est renforcé par sa décoration intérieure. 18 500 m² de fresques et décorations en font la plus grande cathédrale peinte en Europe.

La cathédrale Sainte-Cécile est classée avec la cité épiscopale d'Albi depuis le 31 juillet 2010 sur la liste du patrimoine mondial de l'Unesco

 

The Quran describes the oppressor or tyrant as "deaf, dumb and blind", which is essentially the spiritual reality of the tyrant. He cannot hear the cries of his victims; he cannot communicate with those he oppresses because he imperiously views them as representatives of a lower order of being than himself, and thus as mere commodities to be exploited or, even worse, as plagues to be cleansed; and he cannot see the harm he does. Aristotle (d. 322 BC) reminds us that all tyrants invariably surround themselves with sycophants because they cannot bear the truth. But the tyrant also needs these sycophants because he demands tacit approval of his beliefs and actions, and most of all he fears an honest and critical view of himself. The more the tyrant's power grows, the less he tolerates dissent. What is true of the tyrant is also true of the tyrannical nation. He demands that everyone agree with him and affirm his position because he cannot see, hear or speak to anyone but himself. He believes that his vision is clear, his understanding is unsurpassed, and his words, and only his words, are worthy of utterance or consideration. As human beings, only through others can we truly see ourselves, hear ourselves and talk to ourselves; but in his fixation on himself the tyrant is totally incapable of such reflection.

 

(Hamza Yusuf. Introduction to the "The prayer of the oppressed")

Ici , nous pouvons voir clairement une Martre entrain de manger de la durite de radiateur de nos précieuses automobiles et de la gaine de câble électrique !

 

En fait ces ingrédients de la civilisation humaine se trouvent dans le ventre du rat... Mais il n'empêche....

 

Quand à cette polémique d'hier , ce que j'ai surtout constaté , c'est que tout le monde a vu l'homme qui a vu l'homme qui a vu l'homme qui a peut-être vu l'ombre de l'ours (et qui n'a pas eu peur...)...et que tout le monde raconte avoir vu l'ours !

Lorsque c'était des chasseurs qui affirmaient de telle bêtises , je leur donnais des circonstances atténuantes... Ce ne sont que des chasseurs après tout et il faut bien qu'ils se donnent prétexte à massacre... Mais lorsque ce sont des amis de la nature qui colportent de telles rumeurs , les bras m'en tombent...

 

Le net , pourtant mine de renseignement , ne permet pas de trouver un seul travail sérieux et scientifique à ce sujet , tout ce que l'on trouve , ce sont des articles de journaux locaux , souvent répétitifs et identiques , dont certains traitent Martres et Fouines de rongeurs...

Les rumeurs... Ca vous met à terre le plus intègre des hommes... alors une bestiole...

 

C'est exactement du même niveau que les accusations infondées contre le Renard .

Un million de Renards sont tués par an pas les chasseurs , un Renard mangeant 6000 rongeurs par an , les chasseurs font donc cadeau à l'agriculture de six milliards de rongeurs par an... Rajoutons en autant probablement pour tous les mustélidés massacrés sans autres raison que des rumeurs...

 

Un calcul simple :

Si on arrive à tuer un millions de Renards par an , c'est qu'il y en a au bas mot quatre fois plus !

Donc les Renards tueraient 24 milliards de rongeurs par an... Mais a cause de quelques dizaine de milliers de poules négligées (un Renard ne cherche pas de poules dans un poulailler correctement clos...) , il est traité de nuisible (pour le plus grand profit de Bayer et autres fabricants d'anticoagulants...) !

Comme leurs prédécesseurs chrétiens, les apôtres du néolibéralisme se réclament aujourd'hui d'une idéologie universaliste qui affirme qu'il n'y a qu'une seule voie qui mène au salut. La leur.

Affirmer sa solitude revient à aborder sa peur, surtout la peur de mourir, et à mesurer sa propre puissance.

A powerful affirmation on my birthday day! 🎈

 

The world has become a very harsh place.

Reconnect with your heart by noticing the sweetness in life.

Feeling gratitude and appreciation for all of life's loveliness will awaken a renewed sense of peace and happiness within you!

 

🍊Calamondin oranges (Citrus mitis) are believed to have originated in China and are found throughout Southeast Asia, especially in the Philippines. Their small white flowers produce a delicate and sweet citrus fragrance. While these small trees are mostly ornamental, the colorful, juicy but very tart fruits can be used in teas and marinades, to flavor drinks, and to make a delicious marmalade.

La belle doyenne Amandine...

Lorsque je vous ai présenté le Petit-duc en pleine mue au trou no 6 récemment je penchais davantage sur Amandine que son peureux d'Edgar sans toutefois oser le déclarer. Depuis, mon bon ami Robert Dupont a observé, le 19 août dernier, un autre Petit-duc tout près au no 14b, ce même arbre où depuis deux ans Amandine termine l'été et amorce l'automne. Seule elle à date fut observée à ce trou. L'examen comparatif de son bec bien dégagé avec celui vu sur d'autres images récentes que j'ai d'elle a permis de confirmer qu'il s'agissait bien de notre belle doyenne Amandine. Cette confirmation permet donc d'affirmer que le Petit-duc observé depuis le 8 août dernier au no 6 était et est encore Edgar, je l'ai observé pas plus tard qu'hier en fin de journée encore à ce trou. À voir dans une prochaine chronique. Amandine finalement aura passé que quelques jours au trou no 14b avant de disparaître. Comme on peut le voir ici, je l'aurai retrouvé mercredi dernier bien installée cette fois-ci au trou no 16 celui qu'elle a occupé à de nombreuses reprises l'hiver dernier avant de le céder à son bel Edgar le temps de la nichée toute printanière. Quoique moins avancé que celui d'Edgar, son retour de plumes à la tête est bien amorcée. Une première pour moi en six ans d'observer Amandine pendant sa période de mue.

“The mermaid is an archetypal image that represents a woman who is at ease in the great waters of life, the waters of emotion and sexuality. She shows us how to embrace our instinctive sexuality and sensuality so that we can affirm the essence of our feminine nature, the wisdom of our bodies, and the playfulness of our spirits. She symbolizes our connection with our deepest instinctive feelings, our wild and untamed animal nature that exists below the surface of outward personalities. She is able to respond to her mysterious sexual impulses without abandoning her more human, conscious side.

Rouen (France) - Journée de mobilisation ce jeudi 19 janvier 2023 dans toute la France. Les manifestants s'opposent au nouvel allongement de l'âge du départ à la retraite (64 au lieu de 62 ans pour une carrière complète).

A Rouen (Normandie) selon le service de renseignements de la police, en début de manifestation et à partir un comptage provisoire, ils étaient plus de 15.000 à exprimer leur opposition à ce projet. 25.000 selon les syndicats. Pour le Havre, le chiffre officiel de la préfecture est de 10.000 manifestants. Quels que soient les chiffres, ce que je peux affirmer que c'est l'une des plus grosses manifestations à laquelle j'ai assisté dans cette ville ces dix dernières années, après l'attentat meurtrier contre Charlie Hebdo.

 

- Ne pas trop se fier aux données EXIF pour ceux qui s'y intéresseraient, mon Fuji Pro 2 a été victime d'un bug. Et j'ai dû tout réinitialiser en pleine manifestation. Pas pratique.

 

Rouen (France) - Mobilization day this Thursday, January 19, 2023 throughout France. The demonstrators oppose the further extension of the retirement age (64 instead of 62 for a full career).

In Rouen (Normandy) according to the police intelligence service, at the start of the demonstration and from a provisional count, they were more than 15,000 to express their opposition to this project. 25,000 according to the unions. For Le Havre, the official figure of the prefecture is 10,000 demonstrators. Whatever the numbers, what I can say is one of the biggest protests I've seen in this city in the last ten years, after the deadly attack on Charlie Hebdo.

 

- Do not rely too much on EXIF data for those who are interested in it, my Fuji XPro 2 was the victim of a bug. And I had to reset everything in full demonstration. Not practical.

La Chevêche d’Athéna (Athene noctua) est un petit rapace nocturne emblématique des campagnes européennes.

 

De petite taille mais au caractère affirmé, cette chouette possède une silhouette trapue, une grosse tête aplatie et un regard intense souligné par de grands yeux jaunes.

 

La poitrine est fortement striée de marques verticales brunâtres sur fond clair, créant un motif très contrasté.

 

Son bec court et crochu, de couleur jaunâtre, est typique des rapaces nocturnes.

 

Les serres puissantes agrippent fermement le bois mort, témoignant de son adaptation à la chasse.

 

Malgré sa petite taille, la chouette dégage une impression de force et de détermination.

 

Contrairement à beaucoup de chouettes, elle est fréquemment active au crépuscule mais aussi en plein jour.

 

On l’observe souvent perchée sur un piquet, une branche ou une souche, scrutant le sol avant de fondre sur une proie.

 

Je vous remercie pour votre visite, vos favoris et vos commentaires qui sont toujours très appréciés.

"I am unlimited in my own ability to create the good in my life." Affirmation.

 

Des chapiteaux sculptés représentent des personnages, des animaux et des cavaliers. L'ensemble est de facture grossière et donne accès à la salle capitulaire. La salle capitulaire se divise en deux travées voûtées. Sa façade romane est composée d'une porte centrale encadrée de deux larges baies dont la sculpture révèle une exceptionnelle qualité. Alors que dans l'église la décoration est antiquisante, le parti pris, ici, s'affirme roman par son répertoire végétal, décoratif, et historié, par sa fantaisie et par sa taille en biseau ou demi bosse d'une grande rigueur.

Sur la rive de l'île Chevrière, le printemps s'affirme en ce début avril.

Domicile, Saint-Hippolyte, Québec.

 

Comme je le disais précédemment, j'ai eu beaucoup de travaux inattendus sur la nouvelle maison, principalement à l’extérieur, je laissais donc ma caméra sur le trépied non loin de où je travaillais ou sur la terrasse arrière, et quand je voyais quelque chose d'intéressant , clic… clic… clic, puisque la nouvelle technologie des nouveaux appareils permet des prises jusqu'à 30 et même plus par seconde !!! Beaucoup de triage de photos après une séance OUF … En août, les jeunes sont sortis du nid et c'est fascinant de les observer lorsqu'ils quémandent de la nourriture aux parents. Chez le Chardonneret jaune, ça semble être le père qui fait le gros du travail, et ce serait parfaitement normal puisque la femelle a fait beaucoup. Cependant, je ne peux pas affirmer cette théorie puisque c'est la première fois que j'ai l'occasion d'observer ce rituel de nourrissage des oisillons. Ici, les juvéniles sont presque complètement indépendants,mais, comme tous les ados de ce monde, ils aiment bien profiter de la générosité des parents qui doivent, à un certain point, les abandonner pour qu'ils volent de leurs propres traînes . Une des quelques 500 photos prises lors de cette séance, la suite à venir.

  

Home, Saint-Hippolyte, Quebec.

 

As I said before, I had a lot of unexpected work on the new house, mainly outside, so I left my camera on the tripod not far from where I was working or on the back terrace, and when I saw something interesting, click… click… click, since the new technology of the new cameras allows shots up to 30 and even more per second!!! Lots of sorting of photos after a session OUF… In August, the young came out of the nest, and it is fascinating to watch them when they beg for food from the parents. In the case of the American Goldfinch, it seems to be the father who does most of the work, and this would be perfectly normal since the female has done a lot. However, I cannot affirm this theory since this is the first time I have had the opportunity to observe this ritual of feeding the chicks. Here, the juveniles are almost completely independent, but, like all teenagers in this world, they like to take advantage of the generosity of their parents, who must, at a certain point, abandon them so that they can fly on their own. One of some 500 photos taken during this session, more to come.

Affirmation of the freedom

I can’t come up with a better pic so out of keeping with the season (UK) and in keeping with my mood.

 

A very dear friend from overseas womboyne7 appears to have survived what our planet threw at them in Australia and yet still managed through some back door (followers’ feeds) to post or open comments to what I interpreted as an ‘I’m still here and fighting’ utterly real and beautiful affirmation.

 

And another friend and guru of mine RonnieLMills 10 Million Views. Thank You All :) re-found his mojo this morning, capturing a sunrise which puts us us right there with him when it happened, struck and yet quiet, with awe and wonder.

 

I do hope happiness — if it isn’t already with you, happens by your way soon.

 

(Off to bed now, still with concern about her and her family and friends. but that she’s there, I know I'll drop off. Thank you for that, Victoria :-))

AFFIRMATION

 

May an Angel’s love surround you

Each and every day

 

May an Angel’s breath keep you warm

And tempt you to stay

 

May an Angel’s wings protect you always

When your life becomes difficult and hard

 

When the light seems increasingly dark

And you need help to find your way

 

May an Angel’s love surround you

Each and every day

 

*****

 

Blessings to you all,

Shelley.

 

Thank you to each and every one of you who has supported and shared your lives and thoughts with me this year.

I cannot thank you enough, as you have kept a light burning for me as well in difficult times.

Even semi-human Angels need love to know they are needed...

I write often of spiritual love, but some days we need to feel real tangible love.

I seek ways out of the darkness, and I hope you will continue to fly with me into the New Year.

 

Forgive my lateness in replying to comments and faves from my last batch of work, I will get to you...life is demanding and even Angels have to sleep....sometimes..haha!

Angels drive cars and have to get them fixed and sort out dodgy freezers right before Xmas. Angels have family and they sometimes need your surety.

 

But Angels also have friends on Flickr who have supported them and commented, faved and viewed with astounding generosity.

 

Thank you, thank you, with all my heart.

Completely unlike the fleur-de-lys, the lush dark red lily in the silver field of the coat of arms is a proud emblem of beautiful Florence. The presence of such a lily in the coat of arms explains the magnificent motto: «A flower in full bloom - so flourishes the blooming Florence.»

 

Anatole France used the image of the "red lily" as the title of his novel. "Red Lily" is a novel about love in the world of politicians and prudent businessmen.

The play based on this novel made a huge impression on the young Marcel Proust. The red lily, which gave the title of the novel, is not just a flower, but a symbol of Florence, where the love of the social beauty Countess Marten-Bellemm and the talented sculptor Jacques Deschartre blossomed.

 

Зовсім не схожа на fleur-de-lys пишна темно-червона лілія у срібному полі герба — горда емблема прекрасної Флоренції. Наявність у гербі такої лілії пояснює чудовий девіз: «Квітка у повному кольорі – так процвітає квітуча Флоренція».

 

Анатоль Франс використав образ «червона лілія» як назву для свого роману. "Червона лілія" - роман про кохання у світі політиків та розважливих ділків.

Поставлена ​​за цим романом п'єса справила величезне враження на юного Марселя Пруста. Червона лілія, що дала назву роману, - це не просто квітка, а символ Флоренції, де розквітла любов світської красуні графині Мартен-Беллем та талановитого скульптора Жака Дешартра.

 

Герб Флоренції є овальним геральдичним щитом срібного кольору, на щиті зображена червона лілія. Лілія є старовинним символом Флоренції. Зображення геральдичної лілії карбувалося на аверсі флорентійських золотих флоринів з 1252 року.

Спочатку герб прикрашала біла лілія на червоному тлі. Однак у 1251 році гвельфи, вигнавши з Флоренції гібеллінів, змінили забарвлення герба, зробивши квітку червоною, а фон білим.

2 Corinthians 6:18

I am very beautiful.

I am very cute.

I am very adorable.

I am very smart.

I deserve lots of love.

I deserve many more treats.

And everybody loves me.

AN AFFIRMATION OF SELFLESS LOYALTY

 

My fearless heart

Of diamond clarity

Where expression and thought

Are proof of your bravery, justice and swiftness

That cut through ignorance and malcontent

To reveal the pristine awareness of being

Where the freedom of the mind

Is like the sweet chorus of the birds

Sometimes the reinforcement of gracious qualities and love can be a good thing.

So I decided to start an Album on Flickr doing just that.

I like to take shots of the things I have collected over the years that are sharing their presence with me in my home.

 

Some of my Grail shots have this quality, but often the poem ends up being longer than an affirmation, to me they end up more like a prayer. You can see the Album that contains those works in my Flickr account as well.

 

But in a sense this is the same principle, as the things I have collected over the years often have a sacred presence or meaning, so I thought I would start to share them here.

 

On rainy days or when I am not in a writing mood, it is good to still keep working, using the camera in this way, and it is not only enjoyable, it is an opportunity to appreciate these wonderful sacred items and sculptures all over again, and listen to what they have to say.

 

This Garuda is a modern piece, but the history, energy and protective instinct is the same as from his first incarnation.

 

This shot is from where he resides, in my glass cabinet, where I keep many other precious things..

   

This is the title of the latest exhibition by the Leicester Society of Artists at the Sock Gallery in Loughborough.

It was great to meet some of the other artists and there was a vibrant and inspiring atmosphere in a very welcoming and peaceful gallery setting..

This is artist Tazim Hamid who reminded me of a workshop that she'd attended many years ago that I ran at Leicester Adult Education College in Leicester. It was a papermaking workshop that I'd completely forgotten about and apparently we used the banana peels from our lunches which we reduced to pulp and made paper with.

I'm amazed that we managed that in a day as it's quite a lengthy process and must've involved the use of a lot of fans and hairdryers!

What a wonderful memory and affirmation of a working life full of interactions and shared moments that we hold forever.

This is a photo of the shadow of my left arm and hand on the door of the fridge.

I didn’t become who I am alone.

 

The people I’ve let close - the rare few - have shaped my architecture. Some challenged me and forced me to grow sharper; some offered quiet stability and taught me how to rest without vanishing; some widened the inner horizon I didn’t know could hold so much light.

 

And others, in their own ways, taught me refinement through fracture; not because they intended harm - though sometimes they did - but because not everyone is capable of seeing someone clearly, even when standing right in front of them. Every bond - tender, volatile, brief, or breathtaking - has become part of my design.

 

I still believe in beauty, not as decoration, but as something constructed with intention, protected with discernment, and chosen again and again in spite of everything that may try to dismantle it.

I may not be the pretty skinny girl who has her picture gawked at, but I am me. I am a human being, and I am happy with myself. I have curves, and I don't wear a size 2. Call me what you want, I know I truly am.

 

I believe the sun should never set upon an argument

I believe we place our happiness in other people's hands

I believe that junk food tastes so good because it's bad for you

I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do

I believe that beauty magazines promote low self esteem

I believe I'm loved when I'm completely by myself alone

 

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned

I believe you can't appreciate real love 'til you've been burned

I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side

I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye

 

I believe you can't control or choose your sexuality

I believe that trust is more important than monogamy

I believe your most attractive features are your heart and soul

I believe that family is worth more than money or gold

I believe the struggle for financial freedom is unfair

I believe the only ones who disagree are millionaires

 

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned

I believe you can't appreciate real love 'til you've been burned

I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side

I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye

 

I believe forgiveness is the key to your own happiness

I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed

I believe that God does not endorse tv evangelists

I believe in love surviving death into eternity

 

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned

I believe you can't appreciate real love 'til you've been burned

I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side

I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye

Until you say goodbye

Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore.

Nel 1995 Giovanni Hajnal realizzò una nuova vetrata nel rosone della facciata principale.

In essa è raffigurata l'affermazione del Concilio Vaticano II, dove Maria, eccelsa figlia di Sion, è l'anello di congiunzione tra la Chiesa del Vecchio Testamento, rappresentata dal candelabro a sette braccia, e quella del Nuovo simboleggiata dal calice con l'Eucaristia.

 

Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore.

In 1995 Giovanni Hajnal created a new stained glass window in the rose window of the main facade.

It depicts the affirmation of the Second Vatican Council, where Mary, sublime daughter of Zion, is the link between the Church of the Old Testament, represented by the seven-branched candlestick, and that of the New, symbolized by the chalice with the Eucharist.

Everything is as it was, as it should be.

Claudine Ronnay-Docmans écrit dans Le Patrimoine majeur de Wallonie :

 

« À l'intérieur de l'église, plus encore qu'à l'extérieur, on est saisi par l'ampleur des volumes et la rigueur des articulations orthogonales. L'axe médian s'affirme par la succession des trois arcs diaphragmes qui scandent le vaisseau ; emportant le regard au-delà des croisées de transept vers l'un ou l'autre chœur. Sous un plafond plat, le vaisseau règne entre deux files de neuf piliers reliés par de grands arcs en plein cintre. Un cordon continu court le long des murs gouttereaux sous l'enfilade de deux fois quatre baies cintrées. La même ordonnance mais en réduction, caractérise les bas-côtés. Ici, le plafond initial a été remplacé, à la fin du XVe siècle et au début du XVIe siècle ; par des voûtes sur nervures en pierre bleue, dont les clés sont peintes aux armes des abbesses. Le plafond de la nef se poursuit au-dessus des croisées des deux transepts, dont les bras ont été couverts de voûtes sur nervures au XVIIe siècle. Les chapelles au plan carré qui y sont greffées sont voûtées d'arêtes. Ce cadre évoque irrésistiblement la splendeur des liturgies ottoniennes, telles que nous les connaissons pour l'abbaye d'Essen en Allemagne.

 

Claudine Ronnay-Docmans writes in Le Patrimoine major de Wallonie:

 

“Inside the church, even more than outside, one is struck by the size of the volumes and the rigor of the orthogonal joints. The median axis is affirmed by the succession of three diaphragm arches which punctuate the vessel; looking beyond the transept crossings towards one or the other choir. Under a flat ceiling, the vessel reigns between two rows of nine pillars linked by large semi-circular arches. A continuous cord runs along the gutter walls under the row of two times four arched bays. The same order, but in reduction, characterizes the aisles. Here, the original ceiling was replaced, at the end of the 15th century and at the beginning of the 16th century; by vaults on ribs in blue stone, the keys of which are painted with the arms of the abbesses. The ceiling of the nave continues above the crossings of the two transepts, whose arms were covered with ribbed vaults in the 17th century. The chapels with a square plan which are grafted there are vaulted with ridges. This framework irresistibly evokes the splendor of the Ottonian liturgies, as we know them for the Abbey of Essen in Germany.

“Both the grand and the intimate aspects of nature can be revealed in the expressive photograph. Both can stir enduring affirmations and discoveries, and can surely help the spectator in his search for identification with the vast world of natural beauty and wonder surrounding him.” - Ansel Adams
