Le projet d'édifier une mosquée à la Réunion date du début des années 1890. Il est le fait de commerçants originaires du Gujarat arrivés dans l'île deux ou trois décennies auparavant en provenance notamment de Surat. Le 20 avril 1892, six d'entre eux (agissant au nom d'environ 120 autres) acquièrent un immeuble au 111, rue du Grand-Chemin, devenue depuis rue du Maréchal-Leclerc. Il servira de lieu de culte informel pendant dix ans. En 1897, le gouverneur Beauchamp autorise l'édification d'une mosquée à cette adresse. Financée par une caisse alimentée par une somme forfaitaire prélevée sur les bénéfices des commerçants impliqués, sa construction selon les plans d'un ingénieur indien dure sept ans. Inaugurée le 28 novembre 1905, soit 21 ans avant celle de Paris, sa façade principale fait 15 mètres de long et la salle de prière peut contenir 150 fidèles. En 1960, des travaux d'agrandissement sont entrepris après acquisition d'une parcelle mitoyenne. Le nouveau bâtiment, inauguré le 3 août 1962, est partiellement ravagé par un incendie probablement déclenché par un court-circuit à l'étage d'un local commercial voisin le 12 octobre 1974. La façade en bois brûle complètement. La communauté musulmane de Saint-Denis se mobilise à nouveau pour financer de nouveaux travaux. Doté d'une façade commerciale longue de 38 mètres de long, le nouveau bâtiment est livré en 1979. La photo ci-dessus le représente donc peu de temps après son ouverture.
The project to build a mosque in Reunion dates from the early 1890s. It is the work of traders from Gujarat who arrived on the island two or three decades ago from Surat. On April 20, 1892, six of them (acting on behalf of about 120 others) acquired a building at 111, rue du Grand-Chemin, which had since become rue du Maréchal-Leclerc. It will serve as an informal place of worship for ten years. In 1897, Governor Beauchamp authorized the construction of a mosque at this address. Funded by a fund fed by a lump sum levied on the profits of traders involved, its construction according to the plans of an Indian engineer lasts seven years. Inaugurated on November 28, 1905, 21 years before that of Paris, its main facade is 15 meters long and the prayer room can hold 150 people. In 1960, expansion works are undertaken after acquisition of a semi-detached plot. The new building, inaugurated on August 3, 1962, is partially ravaged by a fire probably triggered by a short circuit on the floor of a nearby commercial space on October 12, 1974. The wooden facade burns completely. The Muslim community of Saint-Denis is mobilizing again to finance new work. With a commercial facade of 38 meters long, the new building is delivered in 1979. The photo above represents it not much time after its opening.

Arguably, the chapel is the site of the first use of the thistle to represent Scottish royalty.
Feeding birds generates volunteer sunflowers. You'd think they'd all be similar sunflowers, but it's pretty clear that the birdseed providers just sell us whatever seeds they can get. By summer's end we have tall and short sunflowers, large- and small-faced sunflowers, impressive and nondescript sunflowers.
This one grew in a planter, and the planter's (ray-like) spikes in the background somehow managed to survive until January (of last year). All in all, I rather like the effect.
This could be considered a daily-photo outtake, too, since it came from the 1/6/2012 folder. The photograph doesn't really work as monochrome, but I rather like it with color. So I offer it here for your edification. Whatever.

This confronted me in the newspaper. So instead of pretty spring flowers or coffee shops views, I offer this for reflection and edification and where warranted ACTION.
"Self Edification and the Tree Sparrows"
My continuing effort to actually LEARN how to take proper pictures without using all the technology available to me. I've been trying to get some decent shots of sparrows for some time now, and finally came across a flock (a cloud? a menagerie? a cluster?) of these tree swallows in a frenzy over a small pond.
All shots with my OM non-digital 300/4.5 /E-520 body.

Visiter le village de chaumières de Kerascoët
À deux pas du sentier des douaniers, faites un détour par l’adorable hameau de chaumières de Kerascoët à Névez ! En famille ou entre amis, remontez le temps en découvrant ces maisonnettes de granit aux toits de chaume et leurs appentis en pierres debout.
Bienvenue à Kerascoët !
Petit village de chaumières proche de Pont-Aven, le hameau de Kerascoët à Névez vous ouvre ses portes pour un voyage dans le temps. Visite incontournable de vos vacances, ce hameau pittoresque situé à environ 500 mètres de la mer et du sentier des douaniers vous séduira par son authenticité.
Les chaumières de Kerascoët
En promenade sur le sentier des douaniers entre Raguenez et Rospico, n’hésitez pas à faire un détour par le hameau de Kerascoët. Ce petit village autrefois peuplé de tisserands semble miraculeusement surgi du XVe siècle, époque où remonterait son édification. Tous les ingrédients d’un village de conte de fée y sont réunis : adorables maisonnettes aux toits de chaume, volets bleus, parterres fleuris d’hortensias, antiques puit et four à pain sur la place principale…
Toits de chaume...
Le saviez-vous ? Le chaume était autrefois le mode de couverture principalement usité en Bretagne. Sous-produit de la culture du seigle, il offrait les avantages d’une bonne isolation thermique et d’un coût de production réduit. Toutefois la mécanisation de l’agriculture, en altérant la qualité de la paille de seigle à la récolte annoncera le déclin des chaumières et favorisera le recours à la toiture en ardoise. On observe cependant de nos jours un renouveau de la couverture en chaume, matériau renouvelable. Aujourd’hui, les chaumières de Kerascoët gardent leur authenticité par la seule volonté de leurs propriétaires, désireux de préserver les caractéristiques traditionnelles de leur habitation.
...et pierres debout
En vous promenant dans les ruelles de Kerascoët, vous remarquerez peut-être une des spécificités locales de Trégunc et de Névez : les Pierres Debout. Ces orthostates de granit proviennent de champs dans lesquels ils étaient débités afin de laisser place aux cultures agricoles. Réemployés comme clôture ou comme murs d’habitation, vous les trouverez utilisés pour former des appentis à Kerascoët. Ouvrez l’œil !
Visit the thatched cottage village of Kerascoët Just a stone's throw from the coastal path, take a detour to the charming thatched cottage hamlet of Kerascoët in Névez! With family or friends, step back in time as you discover these little granite cottages with thatched roofs and their stone lean-tos. Welcome to Kerascoët! A small thatched cottage village near Pont-Aven, the hamlet of Kerascoët in Névez welcomes you for a journey through time. A must-see during your vacation, this picturesque hamlet, located about 500 meters from the sea and the coastal path, will charm you with its authenticity. The thatched cottages of Kerascoët While strolling along the coastal path between Raguenez and Rospico, don't hesitate to make a detour to the hamlet of Kerascoët. This small village, once populated by weavers, seems to have miraculously sprung from the 15th century, the period in which its construction is believed to date. All the elements of a fairytale village are present: charming little houses with thatched roofs, blue shutters, flowerbeds bursting with hydrangeas, an ancient well, and a bread oven in the main square… Thatched roofs… Did you know? Thatch was once the most common roofing material in Brittany. A byproduct of rye cultivation, it offered the advantages of good thermal insulation and low production costs. However, the mechanization of agriculture, by altering the quality of rye straw at harvest time, heralded the decline of thatched cottages and favored the use of slate roofs. Today, however, we are seeing a revival of thatched roofing, a renewable material. Today, the thatched cottages of Kerascoët retain their authenticity solely through the dedication of their owners, who are committed to preserving the traditional features of their homes. ...and standing stones As you stroll through the narrow streets of Kerascoët, you might notice one of the local features of Trégunc and Névez: the standing stones. These granite orthostats come from fields where they were cut down to make way for crops. Reused as fences or house walls, you'll find them used to form lean-tos in Kerascoët. Keep your eyes peeled!

For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.
He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.
I would that ye all spake with tongues but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.
Now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either by revelation, or by knowledge, or by prophesying, or by doctrine?
And even things without life giving sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped?
For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?
So likewise ye, except ye utter by the tongue words easy to be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye shall speak into the air.
There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is without signification.
Therefore if I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be unto him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh shall be a barbarian unto me.
Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church.
Wherefore let him that speaketh in an unknown tongue pray that he may interpret.
For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.
What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.
Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest?
For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.
I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:
Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue.
Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men.
In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord.
Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe.
If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?
But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all:
And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth.
How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.
If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret.
But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.
Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.
If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace.
For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.
And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.
For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.
Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law.
And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.
What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only?
If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.
But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant.
Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.
Let all things be done decently and in order.

July 11, 2023 - "Biester Palace is located in the heart of Sintra, being a part of the lavish scenic landscape which enabled the village to become the famous world capital of Romanticism.
Erected in the last decades of the 19th century, the building was designed by the firts portuguese architect José Luiz Monteiro, and decorated by the best artists of the period, namely Luigi Manini and Leandro de Souza Braga, amongst others. The wealth of stylistic influences it exhibits results in a whole of great historical and artistic importance, perfectly merging with the Romantic spirit of the surrounding landscape, whilst simultaneously asserting as a great expression of late century modernity, highlighted by a leading functional approach, and by the audacity of its decorative programme.
The Palace is surrounded by the majestic Biester Park, a true Eden of rare and exuberant arboreal species, brilliantly conceived by French landscapist François Nogré, in which the dewy verdant areas and watercourses flourish, moreover favoured by the existence of two magnificent viewpoints from where it is possible to sight the Moors Castle, or enjoy a stunning view all the way through to the sea.
But Biester universe is much more than the eyes can reach, with a history full of secrets, and a mysterious, captivating spiritual dimension. All the events conducting to its edification, especially of the Chapel and the Library, are enclosed in intricate and profound mysticism, where art and religion meet in most peculiar and unexpected ways, constructing a path with themes as intriguing as the Knights Templar, Rome and Christendom, or even through esoteric connections to the spheres of Occultism. More than an historical monument, Biester Palace is a mysterious adventure in a fascinating and little explored cultural labyrinth – let us discover it."
