Stay safe and well in the knowledge that Jesus is with you, you just have to ask him into your life, and ask for forgiveness of your sins, of which we all have fallen short off
You will never regret it.

Often associated with compact dead wood of various broad leafed trees. Adults can be found in woodlands visiting flowers from April to August.
The Long-eared Owl is associated with coniferous woodland and tall scrubby habitats during the breeding season, favouring sites where dense nesting cover is located close to open areas that are used for hunting. Although widely distributed across Britain and Ireland, the Long-eared Owl remains a scarce breeding species and one that is easy to overlook. The species appears to be more abundant in Ireland than it is within Britain, perhaps because of reduced competition Tawny Owl, which is absent from Ireland.
This is a medium-sized owl, slightly smaller and slimmer in appearance than a Tawny Owl. The main confusion species is Short-eared Owl and BTO has produced a useful video on how to identify the two species – this is available here.
When perched, or when the Long-eared Owl’s ear tufts are visible, the species can be readily separated from Short-eared Owl. At other times, eye colour is useful: those of Long-eared Owl are yellow-orange, while in Short-eared Owl they are yellow. The general appearance of the upperside of the wing in Short-eared Owl is of sharp contrast between the dark wing tip and the extensive pale panel that sits between this and the darker ‘carpel’ patch. In Long-eared this panel is more richly-coloured and less obvious.

Cats are everywhere in Morocco. They live harmoniously with humans, but rather than pets, they are neighbors. many of them are associated with a particular shop or business. People often feed them, but they do their part by keeping the neighborhood free of pests. They appear in a huge variety of colors and patterns, but there are more ginger, calico, and tortoiseshell cats here than in many other places where cats have the run of the place. In Islam, cats are appreciated and considered clean; they are welcome in homes, shops, and even mosques.

Among the ancient Slavs, Kupala was associated with youth, love, courtship, and the fleeting magic of midsummer. His name became closely linked with great celebrations, when bonfires lit the night, flower wreaths drifted upon the water, and young hearts sought fortune and romance.
One of the best-known legends of Kupala Night tells of a fern flower said to bloom for only a single instant beneath the midsummer stars. Whoever finds it is granted great luck, hidden knowledge, or even the ability to uncover buried treasures. Since ferns do not truly flower, the tale came to symbolize the pursuit of the impossible and the wonder that lies just beyond reach.
Is there anything impossible, though? And is there anything beyond reach? Can we make ferns bloom if we will it so?

There is beauty and calm associated with the arrival of winter. The light is different and the earth seems to slow down and rest after a long season of life-sustaining production. I like to slow down in a similar fashion, and feel the light cascade slowly down into my soul as winter arrives. In these quiet moments I feel my soul connected to what I cannot fully understand, but know with certainty is waiting for me. The God who calls me by name and numbers the hairs on my head stands closer to us mortals than we realize.

The Church are an Australian alternative rock band formed in Sydney in 1980. Initially associated with new wave, neo-psychedelia, and indie rock, their music later came to feature slower tempos and surreal soundscapes reminiscent of dream pop and post-rock. "this unique Sydney-originated entity has purveyed a distinctive, ethereal, psychedelic-tinged sound which has alternatively found favour and disfavour in Australia." The Los Angeles Times has described the band's music as "dense, shimmering, exquisite guitar pop" (from Wikipedia).
Sometime in history, there was here, in what we know as Mérida, Yucatán, México, a worship place for the Mayan god Itzamná, however, Spanish conquerors, built over it a little chapel in 1572 and many years later a temple dedicated to Saint Michel Archangel. At this time, it remains the baptismal font in the restored Church of Itzimná.
En algún momento de la historia existió, en lo que hoy se conoce como barrio de Itzimná, un adoratorio dedicado al Dios maya Itzamná, sin embargo los conquistadores decidieron construir en 1572 una pequeña capilla y años más tarde el templo donde por muchos años se veneró al Cristo de las Esquipulas y dedicado también a San Miguel Arcángel. De la primera capilla se conserva aún la pila bautismal en lo que ahora es la ya renovada Parroquia de la Señora del Perpetuo Socorro en veneración a dicha Virgen.

The Sanctuary of the Divine Mercy is a sacral complex associated with the life and activity of Sister Faustina Kowalska. From the 1940s, a place of pilgrimage connected with the presence of the image of Merciful Jesus and the tomb of Sister Faustina.
The Sanctuary includes, among others;
1. historic monastery complex of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy,
2. the chapel of Perpetual Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, of St. Joseph
3. a modern basilica of the Divine Mercy,
Inside the chapel of St. Joseph is the image of Merciful Jesus, painted according to the vision of Faustyna Kowalska. Since the beatification of Sister Faustina (1993) her mortal remains as relics rest on the side altar under the image of Merciful Jesus. This image quickly became famous for favors and its copies and reproductions spread all over the world. This is the most famous image of the image of Merciful Jesus.
In the years 1999-2002, next to the monastery complex, a modern, two-level, ellipsoidal basilica was built over which the 77-meter high observation tower dominates.
The dynamic development of the Sanctuary took place after the beatification of Sister Faustina on April 18, 1993, and its canonization on April 30, 2000, as well as thanks to the pilgrimages of Pope John Paul II (1997 and 2002) and Pope Benedict XVI (2006).

Sanktuarium Bożego Miłosierdzia to kompleks sakralny, związany z życiem i działalnością Siostry Faustyny Kowalskiej. Od lat 40-tych XX wieku miejsce pielgrzymek związanych z obecnością obrazu Jezusa Miłosiernego oraz grobu Siostry Faustyny.
W skład Sanktuarium wchodzą między innymi;
1. zabytkowy zespół klasztorny Sióstr Matki Bożej Miłosierdzia,
2. kaplica Wieczystej Adoracji Najświętszego Sakramentu, pw. św. Józefa
3. nowoczesna bazylika Bożego Miłosierdzia,
We wnętrzu kaplicy św. Józefa znajduje się obraz Jezusa Miłosiernego, namalowany według wizji Faustyny Kowalskiej. Od czasu beatyfikacji Siostry Faustyny (1993) jej doczesne szczątki jako relikwie spoczywają na bocznym ołtarzu pod obrazem Jezusa Miłosiernego. Obraz ten szybko zasłynął łaskami a jego kopie i reprodukcje rozeszły się po świecie. Jest to najbardziej znany wizerunek obrazu Jezusa Miłosiernego.
W latach 1999–2002 obok zespołu klasztornego wybudowano nowoczesną, dwupoziomową, elipsoidalną bazylikę nad którą góruje 77-metrowa wieża widokowa.
Dynamiczny rozwój Sanktuarium nastąpił po beatyfikacji siostry Faustyny 18 kwietnia 1993 roku, i jej kanonizacji 30 kwietnia 2000 roku, a także dzięki pielgrzymkom papieża Jana Pawła II (1997 i 2002) oraz papieża Benedykta XVI (2006).
Artistic framing of a vibrant mural featuring a stylized fish skeleton with a crescent moon-like tail and a colorful seating area on the foreground.
Often seen in artwork, the fish skeleton is associated with the water element in many cultures because water is often seen as a source of life and nourishment.

Murano
is a series of islands linked by bridges in the Venetian Lagoon, northern Italy.
Murano’s reputation as a center for glassmaking was born when the Venetian Republic, fearing fire and the destruction of the city’s mostly wooden buildings, ordered glassmakers to move their foundries to Murano in 1291.
Murano glass is still associated with Venetian glass

The species reaches a body length of 5–7 millimetres (0.20–0.28 in). Most females are slightly larger than males. In these polymorphic insects, the coloration of the body is very variable (about 20 different colors are known). Usually, they are yellowish, brownish, or black, with brighter patches on a dark background, but also with dark markings on a lighter background.
The most common modes of locomotion are running and flying, but the most striking is their strong jumping ability, which is useful for escaping from predators. When jumping, the hind leg tarsal spines and spine hairs are embedded into the material the animal is jumping from, typically a plant, and provide the purchase needed for a lateral jump - confirmed with scanning electron micrographs. X-ray spectroscopy revealed that the darker coloured sclerotized tips of the spines, the last 6/100ths of a millimetre or so, contain zinc.
Eggs are white with an orange spot; this spot becomes darker and larger if the egg is fertilised, approximately 1mm long and 0.3mm wide. The larvae, also called nymphs, hatch after about 20 days and develop through five stages, known as instars.
The larvae are well known for the self-generated foam nests which can be observed during spring in meadows (especially on cuckoo flowers, Cardamine pratensis, and broom, Genista, species). The larvae in the foam nests are largely protected from predators and also get the necessary moisture for the appropriate development and temperature, so their mortality remains low even in bad weather. The larval stage lasts about 50 days. The adults leave the foam nest only when it is completely dried. This takes about ten days. The females mate soon after.
Froghoppers are polyphagous, their host plant specificity is low, so that they can feed on a variety of plants, mainly grasses (Poaceae species), reed plants (Juncaceae species), herbs and sometimes trees (including the olive tree, where the species has been identified as spreading Xylella fastidiosa, the bacterium associated with Olive quick decline syndrome). They have been identified on over 170 host plants.
« Associated with good luck and longevity, it was also used in traditional New Year’s celebrations and decorations. Japanese Hawaiians, for example, serve it as a symbol of transformation, signifying health and success in the New Year. »

Loch Fyne meaning Loch of the Vine or Wine, is a sea loch on the west coast of Argyll and Bute. It extends 65 kilometres (40 mi) inland from the Sound of Bute, making it the longest of the sea lochs. It is connected to the Sound of Jura by the Crinan Canal.
It has a reputation for its oyster fishery, and as a consequence the loch has given its name to the locally-owned Loch Fyne Oysters and to the associated Loch Fyne Restaurants. It is also notable for its herring-fishing industry, and hence the famous Loch Fyne Kipper, originally caught using the drift-net method. In the mid-19th century, Loch Fyne was the centre of the battle between the traditional drift-net fishermen and the new trawl-net fishermen who sprang up around Tarbert and Campbeltown in 1833.

This year, I had the idea of making an image of the “Île d’or” associated with the Milky Way andthe shooting stars of the “Perseids”. Mission not so obvious...
The Île d'Or is located in the Var, in the town of Saint-Raphaël, and faces the Dramont landing beach. It would have inspired Hergé to create the Black Island of the adventures of Tintin.
The Perseids are a swarm of shooting stars visible each year in August, when the Earth crosses its path. This year's peak was around August 10.
First difficulty… On this date the full moon took place. The Milky Way was therefore not visible, because of the strong luminosity emitted by the Moon.
So I made this image on August 2, when the Moon was setting early. The shooting stars were rather rare… Only one visible that evening… And luckily, it passed right above the lighthouse of the island, next to the Rho Ophuici region…
Another difficulty was to manage the heavy light pollution generated by the coastal towns (Sainte-Maxime, Saint-Raphaël and Saint-Tropez). This required reducing the "ISO" of the device and doing "stacking" consisting of stacking several (strictly identical) photos of the sky. The goal was to reduce noise and capture as much information as possible.
We can therefore distinguish the Milky Way, and its "bulb" (or "heart") inside which there are many nebulae, stars and globular clusters.
Here is the final image: panorama of 4 photos taken with the Sigma 28mm f/1.4 - Canon 6d Astrodon. 10 minutes of exposure.
I was accompanied that evening by my father. A good moment of sharing with the family!

Owls have been associated with wisdom, knowledge, and prophecy for thousands of years. However, they are also associated with bad luck, death, and other negative omens. Here are some old lore myths about owls:
Bad luck
Some say that hearing an owl hoot three times will bring bad luck.
Death
In the Middle East, owls are associated with destruction, ruin, and death, and are believed to represent the souls of people who have died unavenged.
And it goes on and on about how bad the owls are WELL! I call BS! That old Owl who licked that tootsie pop and failed to get to the center was not evil just lacking self-control.
Prince’s Plume (Stanleya pinnata) is an herb or erect shrub preferring a habitat of desert shrub and pinyon-juniper communities. Such places are associated with soils containing selenium derived from fine- textured sedimentary rocks (shales, mudstones and siltstones). As beautiful as they are in the waste places of Arches National Park, the plants are toxic because they concentrate selenium from the soil in their tissues. (Source: Arches National Park website)

Serbs have been associated with Bournville since Dame Elizabeth Cadbury sponsored thirteen Serbian refugee children of World War I, and this church was built for political refugees after World War II. It wasn't completed until 1968, and almost every inch is covered in fresco, all painted by the Serbian artist Dušan Mihajlović, copies of medieval frescoes from Serbian monasteries in Kosovo. As is the practice in orthodox churches, it has no seats apart from a handful of very high ones that can be leant against. However elderly, the congregation stands throughout – and services can be very lengthy. This is the image of Christ at the centre of the dome.
The lighting associated with this image favored a silhouette. Turning this beautiful bird into a silhouette was not appropriate; in that, it is the only decent image I have of this species. This is the best I could do with my rudimentary photoshop skills. Besides, I risked being roadkill by lying down in the road for the capture. Bear Creek, SE, Idaho

Both the Eye Film Institute’s concept and urban implementation are based on an overlay of two creative disciplines which have at their core reality and fiction, illusion and real experience. (...)
On the interface between land and water, between historic centre and modern development area, the building adopts many faces from each viewpoint, thus finding itself in a constant dialogue with its surroundings. Its radiance overcomes the city’s natural divide and historic lifeline, the IJ river, and is defined by its interaction with the surroundings, its positioning, and geometry.

Most people associate San Francisco’s summer as its foggy season. For photographers, however, the winter is when “fog season” starts. With the cooler temperates the fog drops in elevation and on those perfect mornings it sits right at the deck of the Golden Gate Bridge. Those of us hoping to photograph the bridge wake up early on particular mornings to check.
A new webcam, EarthCam, was installed in SF on the approach to the GGB — in this photo just below Sutro Tower, the big antenna thing near the back of the bridge (in reality that tower, and the webcam are miles away, but just for reference, below it). On this particular morning Willie and I woke up, saw fog on the webcam, and jumped in the car and drove to the city.
Getting to the bridge was a bit of a disappointment — we new immediately that there would be no morning fog. It was mostly clear. A small patch of fog sat where the webcam was but no where else. We walked out to Battery Spencer and enjoyed the sunrise for a bit before hopping back in the car and heading to work. At least it was a beautiful way to start the day!
