Canel of Buriganga river .The Buriganga River, the lifeblood of the capital Dhaka, is now lifeless. The sound of clear water is no longer visible on the riverbed. Buriganga is a dead, stagnant 'river' of black, foul-smelling polluted water. Due to the navigability crisis, polluted waste from various factories and tanneries, illegal encroachment by some people, dumping of household and other garbage and rubbish into the river, etc., the pollution of the Buriganga River is constantly increasing. At the same time, the once lively Buriganga River has now become a lifeless dead river. The river that was full of fish, now due to plastic and human waste, the water that used to be clear is now just toxic black water. It seems that the Buriganga River, known as the lifeblood of Dhaka, is gradually heading towards death.
day 339
Oh look who finally decided to take pictures again. Today has been the first sunny day in a while so I actually went out to shoot.
Never
could it stay with me
the whole day long.
Fail with consequence,
lose with elequence
and smile.
I'm not in this movie,
I'm not in this song.

The cult movie “Le fabuleux destin d’Amélie Poulain”.
In this present-day remake of “Alice in Wonderland”, the legendary hill features lead actress Audrey Tautou as “the colourful fantasy where the impossible seems possible”.
Despite the intensely romanticized setting of the movie, you might be surprised to know that its actual film locations are quite real and still operating today.

"While the Unbelievers got up in their hearts heat and cant - the heat and cant of ignorance,- Allah sent down His Sakina - tranquility (sakīnatahu) to his Messenger and to the Believers, and made them stick close to the command of self-restraint; and well were they entitled to it and worthy of it.
And Allah has full knowledge of all things."
(The Qur'an [48:26])
Sukaina is the Spirit of Tranquility, or Peace of Reassurance it's also a shortened form of the original word "Sakina" which is mentioned in the Quran as having descended upon the Islamic prophet Muhammad and the believers as they made an unarmed pilgrimage to Mecca, and were faced with an opposing military force of the Quraysh, with whom the Prophet struck the Treaty of Hudaybiyah.
"He it is Who sent down the sakina into the hearts of the believers that they might add faith unto their faith".
(The Qur'an [48:4])
The sakina is related to the Hebrew Shekhinah, the term for God’s presence in the world.
The root of the word is sa-ka-na which means "dwelled" or "remained in place".
This further supports the association with the Shekhinah as "indwelling".
Sufi writings, in expounding the inner peace of Sufi contemplation, which dwells in a sanctuary or in the heart, confirm the association with both Sakina and the Shekhinah.
Sufi reference to sa-ka-na as meaning both stillness and habitation adds to the identity with Shekhinah's indwelling nature.
Another Quranic association with the concord of dwellings in peace coincides with the attribution of the Shekhinah to matrimonial concord under the tent of Sarah:
"And God gave you your houses as a quiescent place (sakanan)." (The Qur'an [16:80])

Berlin boasts two zoological gardens, a consequence of decades of political and administrative division of the city. The older one, called Zoo Berlin, founded in 1844, is situated in what is now called the "City West". It is the most species-rich zoo worldwide. The other one, called Tierpark Berlin ("Animal Park"), was established on the long abandoned premises of Friedrichsfelde Manor Park in the eastern borough of Lichtenberg, in 1954. Covering 160 ha, it is the largest landcape zoo in Europe.
Rund 15 Prozent der Erdoberfläche werden von Savannen bedeckt. Damit gehören sie zu den größten und wichtigsten Lebensräumen des Planeten. Seit dem 26. Mai 2023 wird Besucher*innen im Tierpark Berlin ein Einblick in diese faszinierende Landschaft gewährt und sie können mehr über die unterschiedlichen Bewohner der ostafrikanischen Savanne und ihren natürlichen Lebensraum erfahren.
Ein wahrer Höhepunkt der neuen Tierpark-Savanne ist der 120 Meter lange Giraffenpfad: Hier werden die Gäste den bis zu fünf Meter hohen Grazien der Savanne zukünftig auf Augenhöhe begegnen können – wer sich traut, bahnt sich den Weg durch den Wald bis zu den Aussichtsplattformen über eine abenteuerliche Hängebrücke. Der Tierpark Berlin erreicht mit der Eröffnung der Afrikanischen Savannenlandschaft ein neues Etappenziel auf seinem Weg zu einem Zoo der Zukunft. Seit knapp neun Jahren wird der 1955 gegründete und 160 Hektar große Tierpark Berlin zu einem naturnahen Geozoo umgebaut. Um einen Einblick in den Lebensraum der einzelnen Tierarten und deren Interaktionen, Besonderheiten und Problematiken zu ermöglichen, werden die Tiere im Tierpark größtenteils nach geografischen Gesichtspunkten zu sehen sein.

Around 15 per cent of the earth's surface is covered by savannahs. This makes them one of the largest and most important habitats on the planet. Since 26 May 2023, visitors to Tierpark Berlin have been given an insight into this fascinating landscape and can learn more about the different inhabitants of the East African savannah and their natural habitat.
A true highlight of the new zoo savannah is the 120-metre-long giraffe trail: here, guests will be able to meet the up to five-metre-high graces of the savannah at eye level in future - those who dare will make their way through the forest to the viewing platforms via an adventurous suspension bridge. With the opening of the African Savannah Landscape, Tierpark Berlin has reached a new milestone on its way to becoming a zoo of the future. For almost nine years, the 160-hectare Tierpark Berlin, which was founded in 1955, has been transformed into a near-natural geozoo. In order to provide an insight into the habitat of the individual animal species and their interactions, peculiarities and problems, the animals in the zoo will largely be seen according to geographical aspects.
Un très vieux dragon, tellement occupé par sa tristesse qu'il ne m'avait pas remarqué approcher. Le chemin passait littéralement sur son dos, tout encastré dans la terre qu'il était. Seule sa tête, si âgée que ses écailles semblaient de pierre, trempait dans la Vendée. Malgré ma crainte, je lui demandai alors la permission de passer :
— Excusez-moi, dis-je, puis-je passer par le chemin s'il vous plait ?
Sans même un mouvement ou un regard, j'entendis après un moment de silence : "Peu m'importe".
Un peu étonné de la situation et le voyant tout immobile, sans même une attention vers moi, je le questionnai :
— Qu'avez-vous pour paraître si triste ?
— Si je le parais autant, c'est parce que je le suis, me répondit-il.
— Qu'est-ce qui vous rend donc si triste, si vous me permettez ? demandai-je.
— Que les feuilles doivent tomber, me dit-il.
— Je ne comprends pas, dis-je après un petit moment de réflexion, vous aimez les feuilles au point de vouloir toujours les voir vertes et cramponnées aux arbres ?
— Que les feuilles tombent, et qu'elles doivent tomber, n'est pas la même chose. La cause m'attriste, pas la conséquence. Tu es un être bien jeune, peut-être le temps te fera comprendre. Maintenant, passe, répondit-il d'une voix rocailleuse mais douce.
Sur ce dernier mot, je fus comme soudainement éveillé ou plutôt "sortie" et seul sur la rive. Je pris cette photo, il n'était que pierre. Alors pourquoi j'ai son sentiment ?
The sad dragon
A very old dragon, so occupied with his sadness that he hadn't noticed me approaching. The path literally passed over his back, all embedded in the earth that he was. Only his head, so old that its scales looked like stone, was soaking in the Vendée. Despite my fear, I then asked her permission to pass:
- Excuse me, I said, may I please go by the path ?
Without even a movement or a look, I heard after a moment of silence: "I don't care".
A little astonished by the situation and seeing him quite motionless, without even paying attention to me, I questioned him:
— What do you have to look so sad ?
— If I seem so, it's because I am, he answered me.
— What makes you so sad, if you allow me ? I asked.
— That the leaves must fall, he told me.
— I do not understand, I said after a moment of reflection, do you love leaves so much that you always want to see them green and clinging to the trees?
— That the leaves are falling, and that they must fall, is not the same thing. The cause saddens me, not the consequence. You are a very young being, perhaps time will make you understand. Now, pass, he replied with a stony but gentle voice.
On this last word, I was suddenly awake or rather "out" and alone on the shore. I took this photo, he was just stone.
So why do I have his feelings?

Saint James's Church (Swedish: Sankt Jacobs kyrka) is a church in central Stockholm, Sweden, dedicated to apostle Saint James the Greater, patron saint of travellers.
It is often mistakenly called St Jacob's. The confusion arises because Swedish, like many other languages, uses the same name for both James and Jacob.
It is the most central church in the Swedish capital, surrounded by the popular park Kungsträdgården, the Royal Opera, the square Gustav Adolfs torg; and near Sergels torg, the Royal Palace, and governmental office Rosenbad.
The church took a long time to complete. As a consequence it includes a wide range of architectural styles, such as Late Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque.
A bust of Swedish tenor Jussi Björling (1911-1960) stands outside.

Always look closely at the shadows that flicker behind you.
Atrociraptor is a bit of tablescrap, so I thought that just posting it "raw" would be boring and decided to build a small scene. This is my first successful attempt at building a setting for my MOC (dunno if I can call it a diorama) and actually I enjoy it a lot, especially lighting, Studio built-in render is just miraculous. Let me know what you think about it and should I continue experimenting with such scenes.

In July here, we had a continuous stretch of days that were far hotter and drier than normal for that month: 35C+ i.e. 95F+ and also no rain for a couple of weeks. July is not normally our hottest month. August is. Even this big, old oak, with deep roots, showed the strain, with some of its end-leaves withering. Oaks are supposed to be tough. Some forest experts say that they will gradually replace evergreens in temperate forests that become hotter and drier.
My experience is that it has clearly become warmer here, over my almost 20 years in northwest Switzerland.
The consensus among the vast majority of climate scientists seems correct to me: the Earth is warming, the causes are anthropogenic, and the CONSEQUENCES are easily measurable in numerous ways and places.

Actions have consequences...first rule of life. And the second rule is this - you are the only one responsible for your own actions.

I have wanted to photograph this barn ever since I saw it more than two years ago! It has definitely seen better days...the roof is nearly caving in from heavy snows and the the sides have half of their boards wiped out from heavy winds...but then, that's what gives it so much character!
This ol' barn was photographed just east of Portage, Wisconsin; 031512.

Just thought I'd try this comp and crop out. I don't even know what to think of it. Sometimes you just want do do something different with a photo, consequences be damned. I can't say I'm all that thrilled by it. I promise I'll post something better from this shoot soon.
You guys tell me what you think.

Refusing to obey God’s boundaries—sin—always has negative consequences.
Genesis 3:16–19 To the woman he said, “I will surely multiply your pain in childbearing; in pain you shall bring forth children. Your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you.” And to Adam he said, “Because you have listened to the voice of your wife and have eaten of the tree of which I commanded you, ‘You shall not eat of it,’ cursed is the ground because of you; in pain you shall eat of it all the days of your life; thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you; and you shall eat the plants of the field. By the sweat of your face you shall eat bread, till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; for you are dust, and to dust you shall return.”
Romans 5:12 Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned.
Judges 2:10–15 All that generation also were gathered to their fathers. And there arose another generation after them who did not know the LORD or the work that he had done for Israel. And the people of Israel did what was evil in the sight of the LORD and served the Baals. And they abandoned the LORD, the God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt. They went after other gods, from among the gods of the peoples who were around them, and bowed down to them. And they provoked the LORD to anger. They abandoned the LORD and served the Baals and the Ashtaroth. So the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he gave them over to plunderers, who plundered them. And he sold them into the hand of their surrounding enemies, so that they could no longer withstand their enemies. Whenever they marched out, the hand of the LORD was against them for harm, as the LORD had warned, and as the LORD had sworn to them. And they were in terrible distress.
Hosea 8:5–8; Romans 1:18–32
