Cet été devant la porte, un hibiscus fleurit l'entrée.
Tellement éphémère, d'ailleurs la fleur fane quasiment en une journée. Alors pourquoi s'y intéresser.
Il ya des choses comme cela qui font tellement partis de l'ordinaire que l'on passe à côté sans se soucier.... sans regarder.... ces toutes petites choses.
Un jour différent, en fin d'après midi, l'éclairage presque parfait, sans le soleil qui claque sur les pétales, me voila faire ma mise au point. Je découvre tout d'un coup dans l'objectif, ce que déjà j'ai vu mille fois sur flickr et dont je ne connaissais le nom ;-). Je vous présente l'hibiscus, l'éphémère, la fleur d'un jour, qui s'ouvre et se ferme puis tombe.
Je vous présente cette fleur aux 5 pointes de velours, petites boules charnues duveteuses et régulières. Au pied, du pollen jaune citron, humide de vigueur dont je vous laisse voir les détails en "larger sizer".
Voila mon petit trésor devant mes yeux ......
Un petit cadeau pour votre week end.
Beaucoup de douceur pour chacun.
N'oubliez pas de regarder avec attention ce qui est petit autour de vous pendant les jours qui viennent si ça se trouve vous allez découvrir votre trésor à vous.

Das Five Boats ist ein Bürogebäude im Innenhafen von Duisburg direkt an der Buckelbrücke und dem Hitachi Power Office.
Das 2004 fertiggestellte, siebenstöckige Bürogebäude wurde vom Stardesigner Sir Nicholas Grimshaw & Partners aus London entworfen, die Detailplanung stammt vom deutschen Architekturbüro Bahl und Partner, die Projektleitung hatte die Kölbl Kruse GmbH, die Bauausführung stammt von der Bilfinger Berger AG, die Baukosten betrugen 50 Millionen Euro. Vorgabe war möglichst vielen Büros eine Anbindung an das Wasser zu ermöglichen. Durch die ovale Form der fünf einzelnen Bootskörper und die Auffächerung nebeneinander haben fast alle Büros einen Ausblick auf den Innenhafen bzw. die Innenstadt von Duisburg. Die 35 Büroetagen sind alle identisch geschnitten und modular aufgebaut, sodass eine sehr flexible Nutzung möglich ist. In den hinteren, nur sechsgeschossigen Quertrakten sind die Technik- und Versorgungsräume untergebracht. Die gesamte Bürofläche beträgt 22.000 m². Mieter ist die Betriebskrankenkasse Novitas BKK.
Im Erdgeschoss sind Einzelhandelsgeschäfte und Gastronomie auf 1.500 m² untergebracht. Im Untergeschoss befinden sich 175 Tiefgaragenstellplätze.
Nachts erleuchten die vier hinteren Quertrakte mittels LED-Technik in unterschiedlichen Farben und strahlen die Wellaluminiumflächen der Bootskörper an. Die insgesamt 660 m² großen Beleuchtungsfläche wurde pro Verbindungstrakt in zwanzig Felder aufgeteilt, deren Farbverläufe oder Lichtstimmungen frei programmiert werden können. Das Lichtkonzept entwickelte die spectral Gesellschaft für Lichttechnik mbH.
The Five Boats is an office building in the inner harbor of Duisburg directly at the Buckelbrücke and the Hitachi Power Office.
The seven-storey office building, completed in 2004, was designed by the star designer Sir Nicholas Grimshaw & Partners from London, the detailed planning came from the German architects Bahl und Partner, the project was managed by Kölbl Kruse GmbH, the construction work came from Bilfinger Berger AG, the construction costs amounted to 50 million Euro. The requirement was to enable as many offices as possible to be connected to the water. Due to the oval shape of the five individual hulls and the fact that they are spread out next to each other, almost all offices have a view of the inner harbor or the city center of Duisburg. The 35 office floors all have an identical layout and are modular in structure, so that they can be used very flexibly. The technical and supply rooms are housed in the rear transverse wings, which are only six stories high. The total office space is 22,000 m². The tenant is the company health insurance company Novitas BKK.
Retail shops and restaurants are located on the ground floor on 1,500 m². There are 175 underground parking spaces in the basement.
At night, the four rear transverse wings are illuminated in different colors using LED technology and illuminate the corrugated aluminum surfaces of the hull. The total of 660 m² of lighting area was divided into twenty fields per connecting tract, whose color gradients or lighting moods can be freely programmed. The lighting concept was developed by spectral Gesellschaft für Lichttechnik mbH.
I was there, and captured this event on Kodachrome film. 45 years later, it still seems like a dream. Five big Rio Grande SD45s pull a westbound merchandise train through Provo, Utah as the sun goes down on June 9, 1977. D&RGW rostered 26 of these 3600 horsepower pullers, delivered by EMD between Jan. 1967 and May 1968. Lead engine 5340 was the last unit of the series.
It is almost five years I've been to this place. It is in the middle of lost forest, only very few have seen it. There is actually nothing that special, onle the most fresh greenery, light breeze bringing the live, and atmosphere of serenity. The path waves through in nice curves, almost like in viewsite garden. Deep winter moarning was replaced by beautiful bird singing, celebrating the late spring. Five years ago nad this year again.
This tree stood on a ridge near Johnstons' five miles from the blast at one time when suddenly it and it's beautiful surroundings were obliterated in an instant. I've watched the pics turned into motion shots many times and the blocked in power released that Sunday still astounds me.
Alvin Harp mentioned recently that he felt a sadness when his favorite pics fell off the front page and my first thought was Saint Helens. Tonia and I were going to go down there tonight and get some good light in the morning but my 14 hour day at work put the kibosh on that so in the meantime, take a moment and look at this place, I hope that I'm not alone in my fascination. :-)
Thanks for all your faves and comments everyone!
I really appreciate them!

It's Friday. Forty five seems just about right. Half way there.
Have a great day and a fantastic weekend.
Common Bluets typically have a four lobe flower. This five lobe flower mutation appears to be an exception. Similar to finding a four leaf clover among three leaf clovers.
Take five small units, assemble them and they form a larger unit.
You could also make a flower-shape of this phase, by folding the longer 'arms' backwards.
The unit is two-tone, so it's nice to reverse the colors and make two final versions, you'll see them tomorrow ;-))
The colors are darker, it was a clouded gray day.
