It is such a refreshing feeling to wake up to a new day, a new sunrise, hear the birds sing, hear the gentle breeze blow over the waters, and rest in His presence. If we are all honest, not every day begins like this, in fact, most do not. Often our minds are focused and worried about the day or we are rushed just trying to get out of the door and ahead of traffic on our way to work. What would happen if we took the time to take in the sunrise, hear the birds sing, and just sit and listen. Not trying to strive for something, not focusing on the worries of the day, but just sitting in the presence of the LORD soaking it in and I did on this beautiful morning. How much would our perspective for that day change? Would we enter into a day refreshed by His grace or bogged down by our daily to-do list? The importance of starting our day in His presence and in thankfulness is so crucial to the overall outcome of our day, especially a challenging one. It takes discipline to force ourselves to take time for these moments, but I can assure you that they are well worth it! If you do not know who Christ is or are struggling to practice these principles, please feel free to shoot me a message or leave a comment and I will do my very best to get back with you and share the hope of Christ and the encouragement of the Gospel. "'Cease striving and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.' The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our stronghold." (Psalm 46:10-11).
Sunrise Tai Chi, Yishun Neighbourhood Park hilltop, Singapore. In parks and open spaces all over Singapore each morning many locals will practice this ancient Chinese discipline of meditative, gentle movements. Taken from a respectful distance and cropped later. In the background is a Women's Tai Chi group.
I've been trying to get out for a little fresh air before I start work everyday but with daylight starting so much closer to work time my chances to grab a shot are getting very limited, and I probably have to accept I will soon be doing just long exposure shots.
On my brief morning jaunt routine I noticed that a local wood had become swampy in the middle and I thought had aspects that looked a bit like a mangrove swamp. On a return visit I realised that I must have had my romantic glasses on and that "the swamp" had a more sinister feel about it.
So I was excited when this morning I woke and saw the local forecast showed "FOG". Well what a load of b@ll@cks that was. Not even a thin veil of the misty stuff.! But nonetheless self-discipline dictated I must head out for a short walk in the gloom. And stopped briefly to grab a few shots in the swampy bit in the semi-dark. But came away very unimpressed with my results. And now I'm not sure proper fog will make it any better
Trying to decide if I want to update Mysteria's look a little so calling forth magical armor seemed like a good way to test run it. Any feedback from the viewers?

The modern history of the library can be traced back to 1802, the time of the restoration of the Benedictine order. The first records referring to the library date back more than a thousand years, so except for a few interruptions, it is the oldest and most valuable art collection in the country. The library now consists of approximately 400,000 volumes compared to the original 70-80 codices. In terms of topics, the collection includes every conceivable scientific discipline. The language is more often Latin, but the books were also written in Hungarian, French and German. After the restoration of the Benedictine order, the library also made great strides, it began to prosper, and the collection reached its great size through purchases, collections and legacies. The Abbey, its library and its spiritual value was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996.

Am I
Am I still tough enough?
Feels like I'm wearing down (down down down down)
Is my viciousness losing ground (ground ground ground ground)
Am I taking too much?
Did I cross the line? (line line)
I need my role in this
Very clearly defined
I need your discipline
I need your help
I need your discipline
You know once I start I cannot help myself
Now it's starting up
Feels like I'm losing touch
Nothing matters to me
Nothing matters as much
I see you left a mark
Up and down the skin (skin skin)
I don't know where I end
Or where you begin
I need your discipline
I need your help
I need your discipline
You know once I start I cannot help myself
I cannot stop myself
Once I start I cannot stop myself
And you know
Once I start I cannot stop myself
And you know
Once I…

Right now my whole world spin around photography, but music was my first love. That first love that is never forgotten and that permeates you to the last cell of the body.
I am quite a spiritual person and therefore I think that things do not happen by chance.
Last Saturday afternoon I went out again to do Street Photography. It has been more than a month since due to circumstances I had not been able to go out and take pictures in Valencia's old town. This last outing was completely different. Wonderfully different.
I practice yoga and my teacher of this discipline, Juan, also runs a pub called "LA FLAMA" in the historic center very close to the Torres de Serranos. Music sessions are usually held there and a Jazz session was scheduled for yesterday Saturday. The session was canceled due to circumstances and instead of that take his place Julián Díaz, an unusual pianist.
It wasn't too late when I passed the pub door, so the pianist was doing rehearsals. My teacher kindly invited me to come in and take some photos while the pianist was playing…
The piano player put on his hat, sat down at the piano, and began to play the main theme from the movie INTERSTELLAR.
The ethereal light, the atmosphere at the corner of the local, the passion of the pianist in his interpretation of the theme, all the elements formed a magical moment in which the tears fulled up in my eyes making difficult to get focus properly with my camera since I always work with completely manual lenses.
With this humble work I want to deeply thank the great present that I received unexpectedly the day after my birthday; a gift in wich music and photography merged into a stunning and marvellous single feeling.
Thank you Juan. Thank you Julián.

The Royal Palace of Madrid is the official residence of the King of Spain; However, the royal family does not live there, but rather in the Zarzuela Palace, which is why it is used for state ceremonies and solemn events.
With an area of 135,000 m² and 3,418 rooms (almost double that of Buckingham Palace or the Palace of Versailles, it is the largest royal palace in Western Europe and one of the largest in the world. It houses a valuable historical heritage- artistic, highlighting the set of musical instruments known as the Stradivarius Palatinos, and very relevant collections of other disciplines such as painting, sculpture and tapestry. The State rooms and artistic ,collections are open to visits as long as there are no official events.
The palace was built by order of King Philip V, on the site left by the Royal Alcázar, almost completely destroyed by a fire in 1734. Both the foundations of the old fortress and some of its structures were used for the construction of the new palace. The fire episode served to justify the replacement of the old building with a palace in accordance with the taste of the time. Its construction began in 1738, according to plans by the architect Filippo Juvara, who proposed a larger palace, but in a different location. When Juvara died, the project was entrusted to his disciple Juan Bautista Sachetti, who was required to adapt Juvara's plans to the site of the old Alcázar. Other distinguished Spanish architects such as Ventura Rodríguez participated and were trained in the quarry of the new palace; the configuration of the Royal Chapel is due to him. Francesco Sabatini was in charge of the completion of the building, as well as secondary renovation, expansion and decoration works. Charles III was the first monarch to continuously inhabit the palace.

This adult Coot was diving and getting food for two chicks. For whatever reason, it took after one of the chicks, grabbed its head and gave is a sharp shake. The chick was released immediately and appeared none the worse for the experience. I can only guess the adult was making a point about dining etiquette or something.
Llandeilo is known for its elegant manors and expansive gardens. Clara visited a historic estate and wandered through vibrant flower gardens. She enjoyed a traditional afternoon tea on a terrace overlooking the verdant hills.
Please join Clara on her journey through Auneland where she will show you the unforgettable beauty of this country in all its shapes and colors
in the quiet of winter, the vineyard at pollenca rests. the bare vines line up in disciplined rows, stretching towards the steadfast tramuntana mountains that stand guard in the distance. the starkness of the leafless vines against the soil speaks of the season's restful pause, a time for rejuvenation before the burst of new life. the silhouette of wooden stakes and wire frames cast a graphic pattern upon the land, a natural grid that waits patiently for the return of spring. this monochromatic landscape, with its subtle textures and the promise of growth, captures the serene beauty of the dormant season, a tranquil prelude to the abundance that follows.

For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.
Hebrews 12:11
In Kyiv-Mohyla Academy of those days they taught a wide variety of disciplines. Mathematics was a part of them and it included a bunch of subjects: algebra, geometry, optics, dioptrics, physics, hydrostatics, hydraulics, architecture, mechanics and mathematical chronology.
In the XVIIIth century it was Pier Brulion who taught mathematics in Kyiv-Mohyla Academy. He was the French who arrived in Kyiv with the purpose of teaching children French but turned out to be a talented math teacher. Unfortunately, we know very little about that teacher but we can say for sure that he did not lack creativity. Who else could display one of the study aids for mathematics in the courtyard of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy and another one right on the central market-place of the city? That's right, in Kyiv there are two sundials designed by Pier Brulion: the second one adorns the pillars of the rotunda over the Fountain of Samson on Kontraktova Square.
“Сонячний годинник П'єра Брульона
Ця скульптура присвячена П'єру Брульону, вчителю математики Києво-Могилянської Академії, який подарував місту два сонячні годинники, власноруч розрахувавши їхню конструкцію. Ці годинники не тільки прикрашали місто, але й слугували студентам за посібник з математики й астрономії.
Якщо зайти у двір Києво-Могилянської академії з боку вулиці Григорія Сковороди, то побачимо на зеленому газоні дивну, на сучасний погляд, споруду: білу колону із зеленим дашком від дощу. Посередині в колону вбудований куб з дивною розміткою та бляшаними трикутниками.
Удень від цих трикутників лягають на розмітку тіні – так працює сонячний годинник. Перед нами найстаріший з навчальних посібників з математики, що зі зберігаються в Києві.
У старій Києво-Могилянській Академії викладали багато різних наук. В їх число входила і математика, під якою тоді розуміли цілий «букет» дисциплін: алгебру, геометрію, оптику, діоптріку, фізику, гідростатику, гідравліку, архітектуру, механіку і математичну хронологію. Викладав математику в Могилянці в XVIII столітті француз П'єр Брульон. Приїхавши до Києва, Брульон спочатку збирався навчати дітей французької, але виявився здібним вчителем математики. На жаль, ми мало що знаємо про цього педагога, проте одне можемо сказати точно: в винахідливості йому не відмовиш. Справді, не кожен вчитель здогадався б виставити один з навчальних посібників у дворі Академії, а другий — просто на центральній ринковій площі міста, прикрасивши ним колони ротонди над фонтаном «Самсон» на Контрактовій площі.
Пройшли сотні років. Ми звикли дізнаватися час по цифрам на смартфонах та в електронних браслетах, і розучилися читати тіні, що їх відкидають стрілки сонячного годинника на стіні. Та й самі сонячні годинники Брульона зараз залишаються точними лише половину року, бо були зроблені набагато раніше, ніж з'явився перехід на «літній час».
Але туристи досі з подивом і повагою розглядають дивну розмітку на цій колоні. А в Києво-Могилянській Академії, як і раніше, студенти вивчають математику. А ще передають з покоління у покоління жарт про старого вчителя: «Створив годинник пан Брульон, щоб вчасно з'їсти свій бульйон».
