Ever happened to find an so unbelievable sky to be undecided to show a photo of it? Believe it or not this is the sky I've seen after a rainstorm in Leh, Ladakh. A timid rainbow was fading meanwhile the sun was setting and the colors were becoming absolutely fantastic. Meanwhile the clouds were painted in the sky as in a picture of a mad painter. Even now, I don't know if i've taken the right decision...

Les Archives de la Terre
Au crépuscule, plongé dans la contemplation du paysage fabuleux du canyon, ma pensée trouva à se poser sur une simple interrogation : Que cherche à me dire ce paysage?…
_________
Ici, le long labeur du temps, nous a laissé des archives de ce qui fut, sous la forme de strates de sédiments marins et terrestres, de débris de formes de vies diverses, d’un âge compris entre 200 millions et 2 milliards d’années…
Ces sols ont été transportés ici sur des milliers de kilomètres et soulevés 3000 mètres par des forces colossales, que l’esprit humain peine à imaginer.
Les sciences ont cumulé un grand corpus de connaissances au sujet du « comment » se sont formées les Archives de la Terre, ici et ailleurs. Mais, l’énigme de la vie elle-même, nous reste toujours caché par un voile de mystère.
_________________
J’ai ressenti une grande humilité devant cette scène, devant les forces déployées par l’évolution, durant …le long labeur du temps.
Alors, serait-il à propos de se demander si « Homo Deus » pourra relever le défi planétaire du climat, en le considérant comme un simple problème de gestion d’un habitat humain? Comme un problème, pouvant être résolu par la technologie, les savoirs faire humains usuels et l’intercession de la diplomatie internationale?
Il n’existe, en ce monde, rien de supérieur au monde lui-même. C’est le premier enseignement des Archives de la Terre.

The Earth Archive
At dusk, immersed in the contemplation of the fabulous landscape of the canyon, my thoughts found a simple question: What is this landscape trying to tell me?…
_________
Here, the long labor of time has left us archives of what was, in the form of strata of marine and terrestrial sediments, debris of various forms of life, of an age between 200 million and 2 billion years…
These soils have been transported here over thousands of kilometers and lifted 3000 meters by colossal forces, which the human mind can hardly imagine.
The sciences have accumulated a large body of knowledge about “how” the Earth Archives was formed, here and elsewhere. But the enigma of life itself always remains hidden from us by a veil of mystery.
_________________
I felt a great humility in front of this scene, in front of the forces deployed by evolution, during… the long labor of time.
So, would it be appropriate to ask whether “Homo Deus” will be able to meet the planetary climate challenge, considering it as a simple problem of managing a human habitat? Is it a problem, which can be solved by technology, the usual human know-how, and the intercession of international diplomacy?
There is nothing in this world greater than the world itself. This is the first teaching of the Archives of the Earth.

Looks like these Wood Duck babies are having fun but we all know living in a wetlands is all about survival. These babies were headed for some shade.
Thanks so much for the visit!

' Open your eyes, I'm screaming
Now that he's gone, you're weeping
Feeling my words are partial
Now that he's gone, do you miss me?
Inside these bones of disparity
I will follow you into the darkness
I will follow you into the darkness
I will follow you into the darkness
I will follow you into the darkness
Hold me down
By the river
And watch souls pass me down, down
Do you miss me?
Inside these bones of disparity
I will follow you into the darkness .. '

TRANQUILLITÉ
Un silence profond, abyssal succéda à la furieuse tempête de neige qui avait foudroyé la vallée de la rivière, la forêt environnante et notre modeste cabane grinçante.
Ce silence aussi soudain qu’étrange calma mon esprit, comme s’il avait été sous l’emprise d’une Magicienne, d’une Enchanteresse. Une tranquillité absolue qui m’imposa un moment de recueillement, improbable autrement. En moi, une sensation s’imposait de plus en plus nettement: celle de ce lien indicible qui nous unit, nous les êtres vivants, à notre planète, à nos origines, à l’Univers…
…dans un silence profond.

STILLNESS
A deep, abyssal silence followed the furious snowstorm that had struck down the river valley, the surrounding forest and our modest creaking cabin.
This sudden and strange silence calmed my mind, as if it had been under the influence of a Magician, an Enchantress. An absolute tranquility that imposed on me a moment of contemplation, improbable otherwise. In me, a feeling imposed itself more and more clearly: that of this unspeakable bond which unites us, us the living beings, with our planet, with our origins, with the Universe…
…in deep silence.
