It is You who returns to me today and swims anxiously around my awareness again. Opalescent beams and the feeling of wet pour over my starving perception and I hear a faint whisper telling me that I have run too far into the dry and suffocating thoughts of a bleak and mundane world. Laughter, like perfect bubbles of fresh insight, dances in the space between us. Excitedly, You urge me to play once more in the world of limitless songs and inspired stories.
Oh yes, sweet redeemer, You drench and revitalize my understanding with radiant blue.
Blue like the unlimited and expanding sky. Blue like the awe-inspiring and swirling waves of an imagination that cannot and will not ever end. Blue like the true blue power of a dream that crystallizes out of the purest desire to love and magnify for its own sake. Blue like the Great Blue Heron that stands staunch and ready peering toward the horizons of its kingdom. Blue like the skin of the all attractive Krishna energy that calls the Universe to rise and dance in ecstasy. Blue like those eyes that drowned my entire existence with one first glance. Oh yes. Let Us redefine the "Blue" of Eternal Opulence and remember ourselves flashing across an overflowing night sky which by its very nature abases any weak and deflating thought into complete oblivion.
Oh the immortal words of the Master Poet Kabir resonate in the core of my Being tonight:
"I laugh when I hear that the the fish in the water is thirsty."
Metal sculpture at the Rothsee near Heuberg, Franconia (Bavaria)
Some background information:
This sculpture at the Rothsee was created by the German artist Wolfgang Bier. Its name is “The Great Shoulder”. It’s about four metres long and just under three metres high. Unfortunately I couldn’t find any further information about it but it has always reminded me more on the modern artistic realization of a great mammoth than on the portrayal of a great shoulder. If you use your imagination you can even identify one of the mammoth’s tusks, which is admittedly quite small. By the way this association wouldn’t even be unrealistic as mammoth bones were already dug out in this area.
The Rothsee is an artificial reservoir, which belongs to the so called Franconian Lakeland. The other lakes of the Frankonian Lakeland are the Huge Brombachsee, the Little Brombachsee, the Igelsbachsee, the Altmuehlsee, the Hahnenkammsee and the Dennenloher See. All in all these seven lakes amount to a water surface of about 20 square kilometres.
Just like most of the other lakes the Rothsee mainly serves the water regulation, but because of its great recreation offer it's also a favoured recreational area for the residents of the city of Nuernberg as well as a popular tourist destination for holidaymakers from farer away.
The Rothsee is 2.2 square kilometres large, thus one of the smaller lakes. It’s divided into an economic part and a swimming area. Three recreational areas are available at all times. In most parts surfing and sailing is possible, but there’s also a widespread nature reserve, which is situated in the northwestern corner of the lake and where all kinds of water sports activities are taboo.

"God created man in HIS own image, in the image of God HE created him; MALE and FEMALE HE created them." ~ Genesis 1:27
“Because of the hardness of your hearts he wrote you this commandment. But from the beginning of creation, God made them MALE and FEMALE. For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh…” Mark 10:6-8
These verses often go together during the Sunday readings…
———-
Art image for today’s 1st reading from Genesis.
“…The man gave names to all the cattle, all the birds of the air, and all the wild animals; but none proved to be the suitable partner for the man.
“So the Lord God cast a deep sleep on the man, and while he was asleep, He took out one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh. The Lord God then built up into a woman the rib that He had taken from the man. When He brought her to the man, the man said:
‘This one, at last, is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; this one shall be called ‘woman,’ for out of ‘her man’ this one has been taken.’
“That is why a man leaves his father and mother and clings to his wife, and the two of them become one flesh…”
From Genesis 2:18-25

Love and Sexuality...
"Since God created men and women in HIS image, we are made for Love!"
"God's plan for human Love and sexuality is good news! "The joy of Love experienced by families is also the joy of the Church" (Amoris Laetitia, no. 1). All that the Catholic Church teaches about human Love and sexuality comes from this truth: that God, who is Love, created all people in HIS image—male and female HE created them—to share HIS Love and therefore to reflect HIS Love in the world and in their lives. Jesus Christ fully reveals who God is as a Triune communion of Love—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. HE shows us the face of God, and shows us who we are, and who we are called to be. Love and sexuality are bound up in this noble Truth!
"Catholic teachings on Love and Sexuality are founded on God's revelation of HIMSELF in Christ Jesus—as handed on through Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition (see CCC, nos. 74-100), accessible to the light of Faith; and, on the nature of the human person and the natural moral law, accessible to right reason and illuminated by Faith.
"Here we will consider what it means to be made in God's image, why male and female are foundational to God's design, the gift of Love, the nature of marriage, and why chastity is essential to Love rightly.
"To learn more about God's plan for Love and Sexuality, please explore the sections below on this page. Also, see The Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC), nos. 355-421, 1601-1666, 2331-2400, and 2514-2533." - www.usccb.org/beliefs-and-teachings/what-we-believe/love-...

Created the background in Art Rage. Then used brushes in Photoshop Elements 11. Used DAP--Golden Age and Filter Forge--Image Circle Nudger
my favorite place.......... yes, it's a mess....... i thought it was kind of appropriate...... it's what it looks like more often than not.
The artist must create a spark before he can make a fire and before art is born, the artist must be ready to be consumed by the fire of his own creation.
- Auguste Rodin

In this photo collage, one might think that Kentland, Indiana was a busy place. NOT SO. It took me 5 years of sitting for HOURS waiting for these trains...lol But, I waited, with extreme patience, and got lots of photos like these. This collage shows what 90% of my time was doing between 1982 and 1987. Not only did I get the Milw, Soo, ATSF & Conrail but I got plenty of "merger" photos (bandits, both engines & cabooses), lots of MKT, KCS, SP & unlettered early lease engines, plenty of roadname car shots and always caboose photos. My next collage will be cab shots in Kentland from the same roads as above. I am so glad I lived here during this time and took photos.
Photo #1--Milwaukee Road train #204 comes blasting through Kentland on April 6th, 1984 with Milw SD40-2 #27+1. No work today. View looks N/E from the opposite side of the NYC depot. Engineer is waving and the Conrail sign photobombed the shot. I think the triangle CR yellow sign with a black dot in the middle was some sort of flanger sign.
Photo #2--Conrail's Kentland turn rolls into the siding to tie up for the day on October 30th, 1984 with CR #3390-3278, 10 cars and CR caboose #21216. This was the only time I ever saw them tie their train down here. Normally, they made it back to Lyons. View looks N/E from the north end of the pass track.
Photo #3--Northbound Soo Line train #201 is running early on July 2nd, 1987 with Soo #788-787-743 and Soo caboose #52. View looks S/W from the south side of town. Train is seen crossing Allen Street.
Photo #4--The morning eastbound Santa Fe pig train is starting to roll just moments after a southbound Milw train cleared on June 8th, 1985 with 2 Santa Fe's (can't really make out the numbers, could be #3607-6351) and cab was ATSF #999325. View looks W/N/W from where the tower was.
Photographically speaking, it seems as though I like to photograph trains coming into the shot from the left.....

Had the joy of Matt joining us Aaron / James this morning for an early shoot @ Warriewood. He was on work experience with his school with us.
What an amazing opportunity for him - he has a great passion for photography and I have no doubt will be showing us some great photos in the months to come. You were a pleasure to shoot with mate. Hope we were able to give you some tips along the way. Your welcome along anytime.
