The end of the day is fabulous break down. Everything of light has been completed and the night offers some respite before the glorious wonders all start again. This sunset is over RSPB Scotland Loch Leven nature reserve.

The Wallace Monument on the edge of Scotland, with the Ochil Hills behind and surrounded by autumn trees. Construction started in 1861, being completed in 1869, by architect J T Rochead.
It celebrates one of Scotland's greatest heroes - and one of its most mythologised, it is often hard to tell fact from hyperbole - with the tower looking towards the site of his great victory over a far larger and better equipped English army at the Battle of Stirling Bridge in 1297.
Wallace would lose his life during the Wars of Independence, but the Bruce would rise to become King of Scots and soundly defeat a much larger force at nearby Bannockburn in 1314 - although the wars would rumble on somewhat, this effectively sealed those conflicts, preserving Scotland as an independent kingdom for centuries, changing the way the history of the British Isles would unfold (eventually leading to a Scottish Stuart king being asked to assume the English throne after the death of Elizabeth I - in true Stuart fashion they did make a mess of that a few decades later, of course!)
Such gorgeous autumnal light today, got to enjoy these views where our national history, landscape and architecture all blended, caught in beautiful, golden light and sharing that view with my dad.

Works of art are of an infinite solitude, and no means of approach is so useless as criticism. Only love can touch and hold them and be fair to them.
Nothing touches a work of art so little as words of criticism: they always result in more or less fortunate misunderstandings. Things aren't all so tangible and sayable as people would usually have us believe; most experiences are unsayable, they happen in a space that no word has ever entered, and more unsayable than all other things are works of art, those mysterious existences, whose life endures beside our own small, transitory life.
~ Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters To A Young Poet ~

The vision of the center of this mandala beleaguered me in the same night when I completed Kabeirô – and I even was told its name: Worlds within Worlds.
Instantly, I sensed a profound aversion to both the image and the name, and for about one week, I refused to start with the work on the mosaic.
Then, one sleepless night, I had another vision which was very weird: before I saw anything, I had the sensation that my body was a tremendous, overdimensioned black sphere which had a very small white sphere in its midpoint; not till then, I saw the image of the black sphere, but somehow two-dimensional (onyl the small white sphere in the center was three-dimensional), but I knew that my body – more precisely: my whole self – and the image were one and the same, and that something with it was quite wrong.
Then, after some frightening minutes or hours (I really don't know), another image arose: a white sphere, much smaller than the black one, and with a small black sphere in its middle. This white sphere was outside of my body, I only could see but not sense it, and the feeling of something quite wrong got stronger, and very scary.
The third image which arose after another frightening minutes or hours, was exactly the same I already had seen after I had completed Kabeirô: Taigitu, the symbol of life itself as well as the symbol of the polarity which forms the basis of everything in this wonderful and appalling world.
Not until then, when Taigitu arose, I understood what was wrong with the first two images: the black and the white sphere were meant to compose ONE sphere: a complete whole INSIDE myself.
On the following day, I started working on the mosaic, for I was completely aware of the NECESSITY of creating it. I just had one wish: that I was allowed to find a second name for the mandala which was concordant with my longing for staying integrated in the world of Greek mythology.
I worked on the mosaic from sunrise to sunset, and late in the night, I finally got to know the name I could welcome from the bottom of my heart: Kybele.
Kybele (English: Cybele), the great God mother of the mountain Ida (Latin: Magna Mater), was a goddess who originally was deified in Phrygien, together with her lover Attis, and later also in ancient Greece and the Roman Empire. The cult of Kybele and Attis was – similar as the cult of Mithras – a widespread mystery cult up to the Late Classic Period. The whole legend concerns apparently the gender dualism; it explains the origin of the world by an interaction of the male and the female element of the universe: the heavenly Attis must inseminate the mother earth Kybele with its blood so that the world can arise.
The mandala is not yet completed; I suppose that it's going to be quite huge and that I'll work on it for a couple of weeks, but I don't know definitely... – well, we will see. ;-)

The revival protocol is complete
The revival protocol is complete, rebooting my biology. The GRIP holds me, a psychical pressure of my magnified self, exposed by the anomaly. Here, I meet a reflection of myself with crimson eyes, the colour of cosmic decay. It projects, "You see the beauty, don't you? The flawless logic of a 45 per cent probability was never about survival. It was about the sublime perfection of this…unmaking."

Wazir Khan Mosque was completed in 1635 by Nawab Wazir Khan who was the governor of the region during the reign of Mughal Emperor Shah Jehan.
The mosque was designed to be more than just a place of worship. It served as a town center, where 22 shops were integrated in the mosque design. Other markets extended out at right angles from the sides of the mosque. Before the Badshahi Mosque was constructed, Wazir Khan Mosque served as the Royal Mosque, and Emperor Shah Jehan offered his Friday prayers here in congregation.
The distinct feature of this mosque is that unlike other contemporaneous Mughal buildings, the primary construction material is brick, embellished with mosaic tile work and fresco paintings. Another defining feature are the the four 107 feet high octagonal minarets impaneling floral mosaic tiles. Some restoration work has been undertaken on the structure, but this portion of the fresco artwork appears to have been left alone, & it is amazing to see the colors have remained so vibrant through the centuries.

“i do not want to have you
to fill the empty parts of me
i want to be full on my own
i want to be so complete
i could light a whole city
and then
i want to have you
cause the two of
us combined
could set
it on fire”

For the sake of completeness, here's my full lineup of Tales of the Space Age. I don't think there will be more in a foreseeable future - I'm very happy with the seven pictures as is and enjoy having them on the wall of my home office.
And just in case you'd like to build some of them, 21340 Tales of the Space Age is still available in LEGO S@H. For the additional ones, you can get the instructions from my Rebrickable page: rebrickable.com/users/john.carter/mocs/
Objective Complete.Catching up after the 4th of pictures another trip coming back from NC. He told me I have the Gina head in this photo but whatever lol
Filled this terranium on a better surface. A couple of months ago, I had two beautful glass jars, filled them with all sorts of lovlies and the top of the table tipped and sent the lot into a million glassy pieces on the floor. I was also in pieces and sobbed hysterically whilst my stoic husband cleaned the lot up!

My visit to Machu Picchu was almost a complete disaster. Initially, my permit hadn't arrived, which meant that I wasn't allowed to use a tripod. Even more of a problem was the rain and mist. I couldn't see further than 2 meters.
I spent 6 hours under these conditions and just as I was due to leave, the mist started to clear and this is what I was left with.
