una exposición al aire libre del símbolo más universal
Se trata de una exposición al aire libre del símbolo más universaly sencillo de la dura vida de los hombres que han vivido para, y muerto en, sólo unos metros de un Mar Cantábrico que unas veces es pacífico con los bañistas y otras rompe con fuerza contra las rocas mientras se estremecen los curiosos.
De esa misma dualidad, de lo bueno y lo malo de un elemento que a veces parece vivo, saben muy bien quienes se han embarcado o sumergido en el mar. Philippe Cousteau, que da nombre al Museo, lo llevaba en la sangre.
Además tiene un detalle especial, un busto de bronce de tres metros de altura y una tonelada de peso del malogrado buceador (obra de Vicente M. Prendes) encajonado en lo alto de una roca cuya base es lamida, o atacada, por el Cantábrico.

En el Museo de Anclas en Gijón han colocado el busto de Philippe Cousteau, una de las personas más apasionadas por la biología y la cultura marítima. Tenía a quien parecerse, desde luego..
L’acqua e l’aria, i due fluidi essenziali da cui dipende tutta la vita, sono diventati bidoni della spazzatura a livello mondiale.
(Jacques-Yves Cousteau)
In nome del progresso, l’uomo sta trasformando il mondo in un luogo fetido e velenoso (e questa è “tutt’altro che” un’immagine simbolica). Sta inquinando l’aria, l’acqua, il suolo, gli animali… e se stesso, al punto che è legittimo domandarsi se, fra un centinaio d’anni, sarà ancora possibile vivere sulla terra.
(Erich Fromm)
Perché un ecologista venga eletto presidente, bisogna che gli alberi votino.
(Coluche)
Se l’ape scomparisse dalla faccia della terra, all’uomo non resterebbero che quattro anni di vita.

My husband keeps asking me if I've processed my Florida bird shots. I reluctantly say no. My problem is I like to go out and take more shots. And when I get home I need to process these recent shots. And sometimes I don't even get through all of them, especially if I can't easily ID the bird.
So I promised myself that bit by bit, I'll post my Florida shots.

LES PREMIERS JOURS
Un cri primal déchira le silence de l’aube. Puissant, glaçant et étrange à la fois.
Son écho se fit entendre loin sur l’immense lac qui baignait un haut plateau volcanique.
Étrange, parce que ce cri n’évoquait ni la peur, ni la douleur. Il ne ressemblait pas, non plus, aux cris de satisfaction que procuraient la victoire, la domination - un phénomène courant en ces lieux de lutte constante pour la survie. Non loin de là, un groupe d’homo sapiens se tenaient debout face au soleil levant, sans bouger, plongés dans une profonde fascination devant le spectacle qui s’offrait à eux. C’étaient les premiers jours, l’aube de l’humanité.
Si un anthropologue avait pu assister à cette scène, il aurait écrit que c’est ainsi, là sur le rivage de ce lac, que naquirent la fascination et l’émerveillement - ces émotions profondes qui portent l’imaginaire humain à vouloir comprendre l’origine et la signification des phénomènes qu’il rencontre. Déjà, ces homo sapiens avaient compris que cette chose invisible qu’il respirait (l’air) et que l’eau qu’ils buvaient étaient vitales pour leur survie. D’autres questions toutes aussi vitales pour des êtres qui ne dépendent pas d’un environnement artificiel pour leur survie, se pressaient dans leur esprit…
___________
150 000 ans plus tard, sur le chemin de l’évolution et du progrès, le très respecté explorateur océanique français, Jacques-Yves Cousteau, constatait, à l’instar de la communauté scientifique : « L’eau et l’air, ces deux fluides dont dépend toute vie sur Terre, sont devenus d’immenses poubelles planétaires »
____________
Un puissant cri d’inquiétude, venu d’un lointain passé, résonna sur les rivages du lac.

EARLY DAYS
A primal cry tore the silence of dawn. Powerful, chilling and strange at the same time. Its echo was heard far away on the immense lake which bathed a high volcanic plateau.
Strange, because this cry evoked neither fear nor pain. Nor did it sound like the cries of satisfaction that came with victory, domination - a common occurrence in these places of constant struggle for survival. Not far away, a group of Homo sapiens stood facing the rising sun, motionless, immersed in deep fascination at the spectacle before them. These were the first days, the dawn of humanity.
If an anthropologist had been able to witness this scene, he would have written that it was, there on the shore of this lake, that fascination and wonder were born - those deep emotions which lead the human imagination to want to understand the origin and significance of the phenomena it encounters. Already, these homo sapiens understood that this invisible thing that they breathed (air) and that the water they drank was vital to their survival. Other questions, just as vital for beings who do not depend on an artificial environment for their survival, urged their minds ...
___________
150,000 years later, on the path of evolution and progress, the highly respected French oceanic explorer, Jacques-Yves Cousteau, observed, like the scientific community: “Water and air, the two essential fluids on which all life depends, have become global garbage cans. ”
____________
A powerful cry of concern from a distant past echoed across the shores of the lake.

kind of a whimsical scene i made here. i didn't really have anything in mind at the time...that's not usual o.O
this is the area that is brighter then 1000 facelights...so you will need to be aware of that or you might go blind. i like to meander about the area with zDoomed here but zSunrise or zSunset is ok.
Al finalizar el día fui al lago de Sanabria, no había luces, salvo el barco turístico Jacques Cousteau y la luz de algún coche o alguna edificación aislada, el lago estaba envuelto en la semioscuridad y el resultado fue una unión del cielo y el agua. Espero que os guste.
At the end of the day I went to the lake of Sanabria, there were no lights, except for the Jacques Cousteau tourist boat and the light of some car or some isolated building, the lake was wrapped in semi-darkness and the result was a union of sky and water. I hope you like it.
En fin de journée je suis allé au lac de Sanabria, il n'y avait aucune lumière, à part le bateau de tourisme Jacques Cousteau et la lumière d'une voiture ou d'un bâtiment isolé, le lac était plongé dans la pénombre et le résultat était un union du ciel et de l'eau. J'espère que ça vous plait.
Am Ende des Tages ging ich zum See von Sanabria, es gab keine Lichter, außer dem Touristenboot von Jacques Cousteau und dem Licht eines Autos oder eines isolierten Gebäudes, der See war in Halbdunkel gehüllt und das Ergebnis war a Vereinigung von Himmel und Wasser. Ich hoffe du magst es.

I've always admired the beauty and grace of the sadly now-endangered Whale Shark, and growing up remember watching diving films of curious diving teams encountering them in the wild and hitching a ride. Its distinctive markings still divide the scientific community however, so much is still a mystery.

Jacques-Yves Cousteau appointed Palmarola as "The most Beautiful Island in the Mediterranean Sea"
Palmarola is a craggy, mostly uninhabited island in the Tyrrhenian Sea off the west coast of Italy. It is the second largest of the Pontine Islands and located about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) west from Ponza.
Palmarola has an extremely rocky coast dotted with natural grottos, bays, cliffs, and crags. The island is primarily a nature reserve, but there are a handful of ports where boats can land and several restaurants that cater to tourists during the summer season. A few small beaches exist.

“Estoy absolutamente cautivado por el ambiente de un naufragio. Un buque muerto es el hogar de una gran cantidad de vida: peces y plantas. La mezcla de la vida y la muerte es un misterio, incluso religioso. Existe la misma sensación de paz y el mismo estado de ánimo que el que sentimos al entrar en una catedral.”

As ever, risking life, limb and public ridicule to bring you yet another of my ‘Jaques Cousteau’ wannabe attempts. Photographed at a depth of almost 2m/6ft, on a coral reef in the Maldives, it may not be a Threadfin - the illustrations on my chart are very small, and there are some differences to this picture - please correct me if you know better!

Excerpt from the mural:
Operation Genesis: The Final Commission
On July 14, 1997 the former Canadian Navy Vessel HMCS Saskatchewan (DDE-262) began her new career as an artificial reef east of Nanaimo, off Snake Island. Project Reef was initiated by the Nanaimo Dive Association, the Artificial Reef Society of British Columbia, the Cousteau Society and the Citizens of Nanaimo. Saskatchewan, a 366-foot, 2800-ton Destroyer Escort, was launched February 1, 1961 in Victoria and was commissioned February 18, 1963. In her career she sailed 740,000 nautical miles, equivalent to 21 trips around the world, and fired not a single shot in anger.
In the words of Captain Jacques-Yves Cousteau “this (project) will allow this noble vessel to not only continue in service, in her new career as an artificial reef, but provide an honorable legacy for future generations.
"Le bonheur pour une abeille ou un dauphin est d'exister. Pour l'homme, c’est de le savoir et de s'en émerveiller."
