As we live a life of ease

Everyone of us has all we need

Sky of blue and sea of green

In our yellow submarine.

The Pushkar Fair, or Pushkar ka Mela, is the annual five-day camel and livestock fair, held in the town of Pushkar in the state of Rajasthan, India. It is one of the world's largest camel fairs, and apart from buying and selling of livestock it has become an important tourist attraction and its highlights have become competitions such as the "matka phod", "longest moustache", and "bridal competition" are the main draws for this fair which attracts thousands of tourists. In recent years the fair has also included an exhibition cricket match between the local Pushkar club and a team of random foreign tourists. It is celebrated for five days from the Kartik ekadashi to Kartik Poornima, the full moon day (the 15th) of Kartik (November-December) in Hindu calendar. The full moon day is the main day and the day, according to legend, when the Hindu god Brahma sprung up the Pushkar Lake, thus numerous people swim in its sacred waters.

While traveling through southern Utah, we went for a midnight hike in Natural Bridges. It is reported to be one of the darkest places on earth. Simply amazing night sky! This 30 second exposure doesn't do it justice. The arch is lit entirely by moonlight coming from over my shoulder.

 

The Best Way to See this Image!

From WikiPedia:ladyslipper...

Lady's slipper orchids, or lady slipper orchids or slipper orchids are the orchids in the subfamily Cypripedioidea, which includes the genera Cypripedium, Mexipedium, Paphiopedilum, Phragmipedium and Selenipedium. They are characterised by the slipper-shaped pouches (modified labellums) of the flowers – the pouch traps insects so they are forced to climb up past the staminode, behind which they collect or deposit pollinia, thus fertilising the flower.

Dig if you will the picture

Of you and I engaged in a kiss

The sweat of your body covers me

Can you my darling

Can you picture this?

I'm not a sunset kind of photographer, and this isn't my usual sort of picture. It turned out pretty well, though, so I thought I'd show that I can do it occasionally.

Something a little different than my usual landscape. I'm becoming very sensitive to light these days. :-)

black stone cherry - sunrise

 

i've gotta hold on

as these days go by

i keep on fallin'

you walk away

i give you everything, that i have to give

made my sacrifice, but you won't let me live

love is so green, in a beautiful kind of way

you've got me wrapped around, your prison ball and chain

you can never tell which you're gonna be

cus you're so obsessed, with your personalities

love is so sick, and you know god is love

you think you're somethin', somethin' from above

 

Iive gotta hold on

as all these days go by

hold on baby,

cus i'm fallin'

and you keep on walkin' away

and i can not see the sunrise...

...why is the sun always in the wrong place!

I know what you're thinking—

You wonder why I chose her

Out of all the ladies in the world.

That's just a first impression—

What good's a first impression?

If you knew her like I do,

It would change your point of view.

The automatic sprinklers came on while I was taking pictures. Only cropped a little.

The Erluanbi, or Eluan Pi or Eluanbi, lighthouse was completed in 1883, following requests from the American and Japanese governments to the Chinese governnent after several shipwrecks occurred in the 1860s. Chinese troops had to be sent to protect the lighthouse during construction from attacks by local tribesmen, and the lighthouse was surrounded by a fort with cannons and a ditch for protection[2]. It is one of the rare examples in the world of a fortified lighthouse. The lighthouse itself is 21.4 m high and its light is 56.4 m above the tidal high water. The light flashes every 10 seconds and it range is 27.2 nautical miles. (from Wikipedia)

Autumn Landscape.

" ...... the autumn leaves of red and gold!"

Taken at the Ermitage de Maria......on top of the Puig de Maria,Pollenca, Mallorca.

The gateway to eternity reflected on the Dining room table.

The thin rod rising above the table is the hoist to raise water from the well.

I was there alone with the camera........

All the time that you were standing by my side

Do you remember the time

You know i stepped across that line

I made you cry and that's my crime

I wish that i could just rewind
