KISS guitarist Paul Stanley really made my night by mugging for my camera during most of the first two songs.

American Avocet chicks are the cutest little critters. All legs and a puff of feathers. I was fortunate to spend some time with them in a park in down town Denver Colorado.

I'm happy, this is the 21th photo of my pics which was "explored".

Martonvásár, back of Brunszvik Mansion.

Built from 1773 to 1775, the baroque mansion was reconstructed in the early 1870's in neo-gothic style.The earliest record of Martonvásár appears in some charters in 1270. After the Turkish occupation, the Brunszvik family became owners of the settlement, built their mansion here and established a booming economy. The landscaped parkland around their mansion is still among the most beautiful in Hungary.

Outstanding cultural memories are attached to the Martonvásár mansion, the Beethoven Memorial Museum, and its surrounding park. In the early years of the 19th century Ludwig van Beethoven visited Martonvásár on a number of occasions due to his friendship with the music-loving Brunszvik family, who owned the estate. A number of his works, including the Appassionata Sonata, were dedicated to members of the family, who were inspired interpreters of his music. The Beethoven concerts held in the park since 1958, generally on three occasions each summer, are now a national event. The home of these concerts is an open-air theatre on an island in the lake. Talented musicians from Hungary and abroad are accompanied at these memorable concerts by the National Philharmonic Orchestra.

The sonata, which Beethoven dedicated to Theresa Brunszvik:

No photoshop, as usual... just a little crop, that's all. Good enough for Explore #231.

Thanks!

This is little Fern Spring along the road into Yosemite Valley. Such a tiny little spring, but so beautiful surrounded by all the fall leaves and moss covered rocks. I stopped several times to photograph this spot. I thought this shot gave the best perspective.

Being able to see the beautiful sky some what relieves me of stress.

Darkness is inside our mind; the whole world is filled up with lights - only we have to look at it !
