How prone poor humanity is to dam up the minutest remnants of its freedom and build an artificial roof to prevent it looking up to the clear blue sky.

Taken late in the afternoon at Lake Batur, Bali. This is straight from the camera
Best viewed large, if you have the time.
Once so hard to speak
Now so easy to play around
Catching that eye you know
Yeah, That eye that slaps you in your face
Calls you a puppy
Well how do you say
I was hypnotized
Hypnotized
Why do you build me up Buttercup, baby
Just to let me down and mess me around
And then worst of all you never call, baby
When you say you will but I love you still
I need you more than anyone, darlin'
You know that I have from the start
So build me up Buttercup, don't break my heart

The stargazer has added a new layer to the already rich legacy of lilies, which have been a significant floral symbol for centuries. In ancient mythology and in folklore from around the world, the lily has appeared as a deeply spiritual and philosophical metaphor. Developed in the latter part of the 20th century, the stargazer lily is a recent addition to the lily family, but this unique and rather exotic hybrid has rapidly risen in popularity to become one of the most adored and sought-after of all lily varieties.

Lots of fun last night during the BoA phography group meeting. The theme for the night was to go off and take random photos at every 20 paces

Oh! You can search in the gutter down low
You can even wait 'til the mountain comes down
And if you wanna wait 'til the river runs dry
But you'll never find another one
You can search around the whole damn globe
Search from in the North, to the East, Westside
I bet your bottom dime
No matter what you do, you'll never find another one
L'eruzione che nel 1928 distrusse il paese di Mascali raggiunse anche Sant'Alfio, che subi' la distruzione di campi e case di campagna, ma evito' la scomparsa del paese.
Da quando la processione dei fedeli arresto' la colata lavica nei pressi dell'attuale chiesetta di Magazzeni, il 3 novembre viene ricordato con puntuale devozione dai santalfiesi, che ripetono il pellegrinaggio di quella giornata.
Per l'escursione la base di partenza e' la meta del pellegrinaggio, la nuova chiesetta di Magazzeni, costruita in memoria di quel lontano avvenimento. Per arrivarci si imbocca, dalla strada che porta a Fornazzo, la via Cav. Antonino Paterno' (segnalata da una lapide sul muro). Si risale un ripido dislivello sino ad incontrare una larga strada asfaltata che percorre, mantenendosi ad un quota costante, il fianco della montagna. Una scritta sul muro la indica come "via Finaita": si tratta della vecchia carrareccia che segnava il confine del feudo Cerrita e costituiva il fulcro del sistema viario della zona.
Percorrendola verso destra per qualche centinaio di metri si svolta sulla sinistra al primo bivio che si incontra; dopo 500 metri circa improvvisamente la strada si allarga sulla chiesetta di Magazzeni (1.000 m). Qui si puo' posteggiare e prendere la stradella a fondo naturale che parte dal lato opposto alla chiesa in direzione nord - est.
La passeggiata offre la possibilita' di immergersi in un paesaggio rurale fatto di noccioleti e belle case rurali; poi i terreni coltivati lasciano il posto al castagneto mantenuto a ceduo.
Dopo un tratto di falsopiano si scorge la colata del 1928, a quota 1.200 m, sopra le Ripe della Naca. E' facile indovinare le bocche esplosive ed eruttive, situate poco sopra al punto in cui si immette la carrareccia che si percorre.
Per esplorare le bocche ci si inoltra in mezzo alla fessura eruttiva ed ai numerosi hornitos (false bocche eruttive, in realta' originate dalle colate che scorrono in canali); uno di questi, una volta individuato, e' facilmente accessibile ed offre l'occasione di entrare proprio dove, fra vorticose esplosioni, la lava correva ad ingrossare il fiume di fuoco.
Per tornare al punto di partenza si puo' ripercorrere lo stesso itinerario, chi ha invece voglia di prolungare l'escursione puo' scendere dalla pista che fiancheggia l'apparato eruttivo ed aggirare l'area delle Ripe della Naca, percorrendo una zona che un tempo era coltivata a vigneto (come testimoniano i palmenti presenti in molte case rurali), e che successivamente e' stata conquistata da noccioleti e frutteti.
I had barely gotten out of my car, at the hatchery yesterday, when I saw all these birds, flying around the trees in the parking lot. There was quite mixture, too! Cedar Waxwings, Goldfinch, kinglets and warblers, Yellow-belleied sap sucker, Red-Headed woodpecker, Mockingbirds, Bluebirds, and others...one I saw was a Robin sized blackbird, but I never saw what it was. Since it was cold, I didn't stay that long. The sun is suppose to be shining bright today, but I doubt I'll get a chance to shoot anything, as we're doing family pictures today and last minute shopping!
