Butterflies represent change and transformation. I’ve always hated change. Always. I’m learning now that all change is good, even if it doesn’t seem so at the time. Change is necessary for people to grow.

Bomonga spent his matoran days as a builder, carving and often finding treasure and ore he would use in forging stronger better weapons & armor for himself, his fellow villages and other villages in need. he took his duty very seriously and with pride, like Hafu and a few other hard working matoran of each tribe, some helping him set up shop. often he would go adventuring away from his shop and village, finding more and new material to work with, trade & make repairs if needed, if he found a favorite dig-site or some place that was worth his time, he would honor it with a statue of his image or a highlight of the surrounding area. Bomonga's life would change one day, new doors would open, his skills great as they are would improve greatly with new ability's and powers, the Stone Artist matoran would face his destiny when he unearthed a strange stone he only heard from stories long past, a mysterious stone radiating with power, glowing from the cracks hidden under rock, most likely forgotten by the makuta or piraka, Bomonga reached for the stone, it glowed intensely before it faded and absorb into his hand, it continued as it flowed up his arm and through his whole body as it grew and transformed into a new and stronger generation of Toa.
Custom eyes and painted mask by @driftingmoc
The mask designer @rothanaki on instagram
One thing I like very much in Sichuan is the "Changing Mask ance" I love the lively song they play when they changing mask... so fast and at a blink of an eye, they change the mask on their face. All mask are colorful just like these souveneir masks. One of fame of Sichuan and I also like Sichuan food.
Shot was taken at the souveneir corner at the temple that worships Li Ping, the great wiseman who at old time built the dam to divert water to Sichuan by dividing water using structure like fish mouth and digged another river by cutting the rocky mountain using fire to heat and water to cold to accelerate the decaying of rock. All are done by the help of people in the city he was a governor.
This dam lasts and is used till present and the place is one of UNESCO World Heritage.. The place and the mountain is the location of history in the Three Kingdom era too, if I dont remember it wrong.
I really like this place and would like to stay longer, for its lovely and poetic city. I am sad to know this place, the nearest place to earthquake center was severely damaged and schools collpased taking away many children's lives.
The world is wide and the places I once stepped are all special for me.. that once in life I was there and those memories remain lifetime...

One thing about living in our area of the country is the scene does not stay the same for too long. As a season changes from one to another, the scene changes with it in quite a dramatic fashion.
The shot above is about the same location as the shot below. This one is taken in winter and the other early fall when the weather was still warm
We can change our mind. We can start over. Possibilities...
Wow.... every once in awhile... you wake up, and someone drops an anvil on your head... like, in a good way... and things suddenly make sense!! (Yes, and if you really know me.... these are the days you have to worry about....)
Of course, in a few hours, it may all become a bad idea again... or I'll have totally forgotten it altogether and will have moved on to another stupid thought.... but for the moment! Yeah .... it's all good!! (and how cool is it that there is always a photo to illustrate my lunacy?!!) Wow....
Exhibit on "Space for Climate" put in place by ESA and CNES at the Champs-Elysées Avenue in Paris, from 18 October to 27 October 2015. ESA and CNES mobilised to share with citizens the key role of space in controlling Climate Change.

Brought the camera along to a meeting Downtown today (first time out with my new used 60D!), and bagged this from the parking ramp.
The first round of construction workers arrived and started work on the demolition of the Metrodome today, which will be deflated after the Vikings' lease expires in January.
In order to make room for a park, to be built in conjunction with the new stadium, the old Star Tribune building will also be demolished.
The Metrodome / Downtown East light rail station, visible above the skyway between the two Star Tribune buildings, pays homage to the Stone Arch Bridge.
Rounding out the scene on the right is the Minneapolis Armory, former home of the Minneapolis Lakers, which will remain, fortunately.

This series of photos is from our visit in 2018. The changing of the guard is at 11am every Monday, unfortunately it did not happen during our visit in 2019 due to the civil unrest at that time, and now the country is in lockdown due to Covid-19, making this years visit off.
Behind that silver colored cast cover on the rear end are a pair of meshing spur gears that can be changed in order to alter the final drive ratio of the rear axle. Its common designation is a “quick change rear end.”
In this setup, rotational power input from the engine+transmission enters at the front of the differential housing as it does for conventional drive axles. But unlike the usual setup, the input shaft bypasses engagement with the ring gear and continues to the back where there is a small gearbox at the rear of the differential housing. That small gearbox has an access cover which is what can be seen in the photo above. Within that gearbox are the ends of two shafts - one from the input shaft and a short one above it that’s connected to the bevel pinion that engages the driving ring gear. Each of those two shafts are fitted with spur gears that mesh together to convert rotary motion from the drive shaft to the driving ring gear. Different sets of spur gears can be used in order to change the final drive ratio but they do need to be matched together in order to yield the desired mechanical ratio and to fit in the fixed distance between the two shafts.

Milkweed is beautiful in all seasons. In spring, it blooms, spreading its intoxicating scent and the happy sound of bees collecting nectar. However, I find that when the seed pods burst open in autumn, they are at their most spectacular. The soft, silken seeds get blown away by the breeze to start the cycle anew somewhere else.

Snow falls outside the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, MA, thought the leaves haven't finished changing color.
Luckily it was still warm enough that the snow didn't stick. Still, it felt plenty cold at the time.
This Flower Crab Spider (Misumena vatia) chose to settle on a Pyramidal Orchid (Anacamptis pyramidalis) before realising her mistake and abseiling on to a nearby oxeye daisy.
About a few days a lot of things are really going to change, Besides that i will have to change my adress, There are some more few things that I will also have to leave behind me.. My old great friends, the fears.. I don't use to share with you guys from flickr my entire life, But this time.. I really had to.
Even if there are missing feelings and even when sometime we feel hopeless, We have to keep breath in and breath out. Life are " rolling around " and the are some ups and downs. It will be hard for me to start all from zero, But there are always good memories, deeply in the heart. No matter How many changes I will have in my whole life, I wont stop to take pictures and enjoy from the magic of the photography, It makes me look in a different way on our world, And to see the brighter side of life, or some different ways to express our feelings,
Then, the show ALWAYS must go on. Look forward, not back.
My changes....
