I wish I found some better sounds no one's ever heard
I wish I had a better voice that sang some better words
I wish I found some chords in an order that is new
I wish I didn't have to rhyme every time I sang
I was told when I get older, all my fears would shrink
But now I'm insecure, and I care what people think
My name's Blurryface and I care what you think
My name's Blurryface and I care what you think
Wish we could turn back time
To the good old days
When our mama sang us to sleep
But now we're stressed out (oh)
Wish we could turn back time (oh)
To the good old days (oh)
When our mama sang us to sleep
But now we're stressed out
We're stressed out
Different colored rocks and minerals in macro. A souvenir from Yellowstone National Park. Ironically there aren't any yellow stones there. #colors #stones #minerals #Farben #couleurs #rocks
A different experience in every season: Oisterwijk's Forests & Fens are exquisite, tranquil and inspiring all year round. Different footpaths, cycle routes and horse trails will lead you – with or without the aid of a forest ranger – through the beauty of one of the Netherlands' most unique areas of nature. There are no less than 80 fens in this stunning green expanse – pretty impressive, right?
Four seasons
Whether it’s the frozen fairy-tale fens of the winter, the dynamics of nature coming to life in spring, the musical croaking of frogs in the summer, or the explosion of colours in the autumn: Oisterwijk's Forests & Fens are a feast for all the senses.
Spot kingfishers, deer and roe deer, or bear witness to the wide variety of insects and water creatures in the fens and ditches. And after an exhilarating day of activity or sport, head to one of the large terraces to enjoy the peace and quiet and a tasty snack, lunch or dinner.Oisterwijk's Forests & Fens Groot Speijck Visitor Centre has a great terrace, as does Boshuis Venkraai. And both are ideal places to relax and soak up the surroundings.
When routine bites hard and ambitions are low
And resentment rides high but emotions won't grow
And we're changing our ways, taking different roads
Love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Why is the bedroom so cold turned away on your side?
Is my timing that flawed, our respect run so dry?
Yet there's still this appeal that we've kept through our lives
Love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Do you cry out in your sleep, all my failings exposed?
Get a taste in my mouth as desperation takes hold
Is it something so good just can't function no more?
But love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
This was taken a while ago when I was testing a new lens in Providence, RI. I found these unusual shaped cutouts on a metal plate on a bridge overlooking the downtown skyline. I tried different shots both the skyline in focus and out of focus and I opted for this one since the light was flat and uninteresting.
One of the more neglected parts of Blackburn..and there are plenty of them! Pity as this leads to the lovely cathedral. Taken from the cathedral side. I nevertheless find beauty in all the different textures..view large to apreciate them.

The Sword-billed Hummingbird is a charismatic species from Andean South America. It is found from Venezuela and Colombia in the north to Bolivia in the south. The species belongs to a monotypic genus, Ensifera, and is quite different from all other hummingbirds; metallic green and bronzed overall, with a black bill that is slightly upcurved and longer than the body length. This is the only bird species with a bill length that exceeds the body length. When seen perched, the species usually holds its bill quite upright, presumably because of balance issues stemming from this long and relatively heavy structure.

For me one of the most amazing hummingbirds of Ecuador! Taken at the amazing Zuro Loma Reserve.

This dawn photograph was taken three months ago at Lower Seletar Reservoir looking towards Heritage Bridge and beyond.
The scattered clouds were illuminated differently, brightly or in darker shades, above and beyond the Heritage Bridge. The contrasting reflections in the Reservoir provided further interests to the dawn landscape.
Best wishes for a wonderful weekend!

- Why are you in the shadows?
- we are the different
- the different ones?
- yes, the ones that nobody wants to see, the ugly ones, the dented
ones, the failed, the incomplete ,that are not the right kind
- how sad it is...
- What can I do to help you?
- tell our story, tell them that the difference is not a fatality,
that we too are capable of being among you.
Musa velutina, the hairy banana, or pink banana, is a species of wild banana. These plants are originally from Assam and the eastern Himalayas.
The fruits are 3 in (8 cm) long, pink, and fuzzy. They are borne on erect flower stalks with a pink inflorescence. Musa velutina flowers at a young age, doing so within a year. The fruits peel back when ripe.
It is often grown as an ornamental plant, but has soft, sweet flesh that can be eaten.
Plants may be placed outside during warmer months but should be taken into a conservatory or greenhouse or given other protection in Winter.
Taken at Botanic Garden/ RJ
A different vantage spot of this treacherous gorge. Most of my shots were spoiled by copious mist spots on my lens but this spot was far enough back that it wasn't a total shower. I want to go back in summer to see if that pesky snow at the bottom will ever melt. It almost ate me alive when I was down there.
(Picture and story different earnings though)
Few years ago my moms friend moved back to our hometown. I call her auntie. Soon after auntie moved back she found out that her middle school teacher (who then was in her eighties) lived two blocks down the street.
The teacher had never been married and did not have children of her own. She lived alone by herself and had a hired helpers who came during different hours of the day to do the household chores.
Auntie then decided that she would visit her teacher every Sunday rain or shine and spend the day with her. This became their thing and went on for a few years. Three years ago I had the pleasure of meeting this sweet lady in her home. She offered me sweets and snacks and was so happy to have a new visitor. Her eyes sparkled with joy.
The same year one Sunday when auntie was visiting her, the teacher complained of a slight chest pain. The ambulance was called and she was rushed into the emergency room. On the way to the emergency room, the teacher held my auntie's hand and said thank for being there for me. She then took off the diamond earrings that she was wearing handed it over to my auntie and said this is a little token of my appreciation for everything that you have done for me over the years dear, I want you to have it. Later that day she died of an heart attack.
I cant get over the fact that in the midst of the pain and chaos the teacher took the time to thank auntie for her kindness and how much she cherished those Sunday visits.
This is the sweetest story I have ever heard of inheritance.
Marty and I visited the Rundle Place carpark again this weekend, and went up to different floors to look at the art.
We have this tree at the edge of our town and it look unque. I have heard of other places having a similar tree. This is a winter shot but still cool.
Happy Wednesday
31-January-2022: when, near you, there are contiguous areas with different meteorological and micro-climatic peculiarities, something is always found (even in a winter that has offered little more than nothing), but you must be ready to seize the opportunities given; this is not easy but sometimes very sathisfactory.
The tail of a cold front from the North, one of the very few that touched the area (always at night, no conditions!) during a short retreat of the African Anticyclone, after having cutted off the Alps and Friuli-Venezia Giulia (sheltered, in winter, by the Tauern chain, in Austria) reformed between the Slovenian plain and the Eastern Karst Region/Northern Dinarides with a series of snow showers in the form of squall-line.
Not for nothing I was there...
As soon as the fast snowfall stopped, I thought I'd take some photos in the only area that is always illuminated in that wide virgin Forest at night.
Artificial light is certainly not like solar one, but, also in this case, it is "of necessity-virtue".
The lights with different tones, reflected from the snow and accumulated by the long pose, create a "carnival" of particular colors.
Les premiers moines à sortir , sont les jeunes moines....Ils portent différents attributs nécessaires à la cérémonie qui va suivre...
Quelques mots , Ã propos des bonnets jaunes.
Le bouddhisme a pris naissance dans le nord de l'Inde sous l'impulsion des enseignements du prince Siddharta Gautama, a vecu au 6° siecle A avant J.C., et reconnu plus tard comme le bouddha historique Sakyamuni.
Réunissant ses disciples en une communauté monastique intégrée à la tradition brahmanique, Siddharta Gautama rejeta certains aspects de la philosophie hindouiste plus de cultes sacrificiels et en réfutant que le niveau spirituel d'une personne était lié à une caste par sa naissance.
L'évolution du bouddhisme a donné lieu à trois grands écoles : l'Hinayana, le Mahayana et enfin le Vajrayana.
Les date de naissance de Bouddha et de déces font l objet de controverses.
Bonnets rouges et bonnets jaunes
• Le grand maître du bouddhisme tibétain fonda l'ordre Nyingmapa, la Lignée des Anciens, et ses moines prirent la robe et la coiffe rouges pour se distinguer des prêtes bonpos.d'où le nom de "Bonnets rouges"
• Pour lutter contre la domination de la religion bon, d'autres ordres virent le jour au cours des siècles suivants : celui des Sakyapas, celui des Kagyupas, celui des Karmapas, tous désignés par la dénomination de « Bonnets rouges ».
• Vers le XVe siècle, le réformateur Tsongkhapa rassembla en un canon unique, les éléments essentiels de tous les enseignements bouddhiques et fonda l'ordre des Gelugpas, la Lignée des hommes vertueux, dont les moines prirent la coiffe jaune et devinrent dans le langage populaire, les « Bonnets jaunes ».
• Le guide de cet ordre devint le chef spirituel et temporel du Tibet. Le troisième guide reçut d'un roi mongol, le titre de Dalaï-Lama (Océan de sagesse), titre qui fut attribué rétroactivement à ses prédécesseurs. Chaque Dalaï-Lama fut dès lors considéré comme la réincarnation de son prédécesseur.
