"Pourtant" by Vanessa Paradis <3<3<3
"Tu demandais hier
Mon avis sur le bonheur
L'air de rien voilà que tu t'inquiètes
La paix te ferait donc peur
Je l'attise cet amour
Les brindilles volètent
Tu n'y vois que du feu
C'est sa vie secrète
Pourtant... pourtant... pourtant
Les mots sont, les mots font, le mots disent
Les mots coulent, les mots roulent sur un fil
Moi, je laisse ces microbes, ces missiles
Aux bavards, aux poètes si possible
Oh... comme je t'aime quand tu t'expliques
C'est drôle mais...
J'ai rangé les modes et les recettes
Incendié la boîte, mon coeur
De ce petit sacrifice me reste
Un vertige, une chaleur
Je l'attise cet amour
Les brindilles volètent
Tu n'y vois que du feu
C'est sa vie secrète
Pourtant... pourtant... pourtant
Tu sais, tu me demandais hier
Ma vision du bonheur
Eh bien, chaque jour elle est plus nette
Il ne nous fera plus peur
Je l'attise cet amour
Les brindilles volètent
Tu n'y vois que du feu
C'est sa vision secrète
Pourtant... pourtant... pourtant..."

Je tiens à préciser que TOUTES mes photographies sont faites dans le respect absolu de la tranquillité des animaux . Le fait qu'ils regardent parfois dans ma direction ne veut pas forcément dire qu'ils m'ont repéré .Cette Renarde à tranquillement muloté à peu de distance de ma tente d'affût que j'avais installée bien avant le lever du jour , durant deux heures , avec des aller/retours vers le terrier pour ramener son butin aux jeunes . Le terrier est forcément très proche , mais je ne sais pas ou il est pour la bonne raison que je ne l'ai pas cherché ...
Ce n'est pas car quelques photographes peu scrupuleux sont prêt à tout pour réussir "la" photo , que tous les photographes animalier sont pareils !
A bon entendeur ...

Interior from Garmo stave church at Maihaugen in Lillehammer, Norway. The baptismal font is made from soapstone and dates to the 12th century.
This stave church originally dates to the middle of the 12th century - later expanded in the 18th century. In the 19th century the church was replaced with a newly built on in Garmo and this one was dismantled and sold at auction(!) in 1880. It was bought by Trond Eklestuen, who spent much time buying traditional Norwegian objects (and buildings) and giving them away to museums for preservation. The church ended up at Maihaugen (the largest open-air museum in northern Europe, founded in 1904), a place dedicated to the preservation of Norwegian history and architecture. The church was rebuilt there in 1921.
I liked the reflection of the stained glass windows on the surface of the water and have tried to capture this in my photograph.
The problem I had was that there were lots of people visiting (as you'd expect for such a large, important and popular Cathedral) so I have tired to edit them out but I think you can tell :/
It was also rather dark so they have been brightened quite a lot.
«...dopo aver rapita Core, cioè la fanciulla, che così chiamano la figlia di Cerere, avendola portata sul suo carro sino a Siracusa, aperta la terra scese bensì con essa all'Orco, ma fece sorgere allora il fonte detto di Ciane ...»
(Diodoro V, 3[1])
La fonte Ciane è una fonte che si trova all'interno della Riserva Naturale Regionale Orientata Fiume Ciane e Saline di Siracusa.
Sia attorno alla fonte che lungo le sue sponde si trovano esemplari di papiro (Cyperus papyrus) alti diversi metri, che prospera rigoglioso in tutta la sua efflorescenza quasi tropicale. La zona essendo parecchio suggestiva è una delle mete turistiche più famose di Siracusa.

Salve, Umbria verde, e tu del puro fonte
nume Clitumno! Sento in cuor l'antica
patria e aleggiarmi su l'accesa fronte
gl'itali iddii.
Chi l'ombre indusse del piangente salcio
su' rivi sacri? ti rapisca il vento
de l'Apennino, o molle pianta, amore
d'umili tempi!
...
Giosuè Carducci
"Alle fonti del Clitumno"
Ad fontes - Zu den Quellen.
Manchmal kann es nicht schaden, sich zwischen all den mehr oder weniger weit von zu Hause entfernt entstandenen Aufnahmen, die sich im Laufe der letzten Jahre im Archiv angesammelt haben, auch mal wieder diejenigen anzuschauen, mit denen die Begeisterung für das Sujet "Bahn und Landschaft" eigentlich angefangen hat. So bin ich bei dieser "Rückbesinnung" unter anderem auf diese Morgenstimmung gestoßen, die ich am 20. April 2011 in der weiten Hügellandschaft der Westpfalz (von bornierten Geistern vom Haardtrand mitunter, anknüpfend an vergangene bayerische Zeiten, standhaft als "Hinterpfalz" bezeichnet...) bei Rehweiler festgehalten habe.
In den ersten Sonnenstrahlen des noch jungen Frühlingstags bahnte sich ein einzelner 643er als RB 12913 (Kusel - Kaiserslautern) seinen Weg durch das Blütenmeer, während sich in der Senke, die der Glan hier geformt hat, noch letzte Reste des morgendlichen Bodennebels hielten. Bei meiner Ankunft am kleinen Haltepunkt des Orts etwa eine halbe Stunde zuvor war dieser noch erheblich dichter gewesen und ich sah die geplanten Fotos schon gefährdet... Doch manchmal hat man eben einfach Glück! ;)
Le Fonti di Clitunno un Parco naturale immerso nel verde dell'Umbria, un luogo dal sapore fiabesco, accarezzato dal verde della natura che nasce straordinariamente anche da sotto l'acqua creando meravigliosi colori e riflessi.

The 12th century Tournai font in Winchester Cathedral.
The magnificent Tournai black marble font has been used to baptize the cathedral's congregation since about 1150 AD. Its square shape lends its sides to tell the story of St Nicholas. He is easily recognized in his bishop’s mitre and crozier and in a cartoon like way is shown going about his kindly acts.
One part of the carving tells the tale of a poor nobleman who comes kneeling before St Nicholas. He has led a life of shame because he cannot afford to give his three daughters a dowry.
St. Nicholas takes pity on the man giving him a purse of gold coins. The nobleman passes it onto his daughter whilst the young man she hopes to marry stands to the side. It is difficult to imagine the impact of such imagery in a time when there were few images created. The font would have been rather like a picture book for those gazing upon it.
A wonderful boat filled with travellers rears up on the other side, with St Nicholas saving lives at sea. The depiction of the boat is thought to be the earliest showing a boat with high prow and fixed stern rudder.
Contrary to its description as a black marble, Tournai stone is in fact a fine grained Lower Carboniferous, dark limestone which takes a polish. It has the appearance of marble when polished and hence its name.
