This three-pane panoramic image covers a uniquely beautiful part of the constellation Scorpius from the Cat’s Paw and War and Peace nebulae to the beautiful Ptolemy Star Cluster. This part of the night sky covers roughly 9 x 5 degrees, for reference the full moon is about half a degree in width.

 

The glowing red nebulae in this area to the right are is the aptly named Cat's Paw Nebula and the War and Peace Nebula. The Cat's Paw Nebula, an emission nebula and active star forming area located about 5,500 light years distant and bears a striking resemblance to a cat’s paw. The War and Peace Nebula also called the Lobster Nebula is also an emission nebula that contains proto-stars forming in the clouds of gas and dust that lie within this area. Also, in the War in Peace Nebula is the open cluster Pismis 24 which contains some of the more massive stars known, some of them approaching 100x the mass of our Sun.

 

As you move to the left in this image you'll notice the bright clouds of the Milky Way and dark dust lanes that are highlighted by two bright blueish stars at the bottom Shaula on the left and Lesath to the right, Shaula the second brightest star in the constellation Scorpius is relatively close to Earth and very bright at about 10,000 times the luminosity of the Sun which is why it shines at a 1.62 magnitude in our night sky. As you move further to the left there are two orange/yellow points of light, one is the star HR 6630 a close star to our solar system at around 126 light years away, and to the left of it is a much farther away Globular Cluster NGC6441 which is about 38,000 light years away!

 

Then finally once you head up to the top left of this image the very beautiful Ptolemy cluster shines with stars blue and golden in color. This open star cluster is visible to the naked eye and gets its name from Ptolemy who mentioned it around 130 AD when he described it as a, 'little cloud following the stinger of Scorpius.' The Ptolemy Cluster is about 1.3 degrees across in our night sky and has an actual diameter of 18-25 light years. It contains about 80 stars and being only 800-1000 light years distant they appear very bright in our night sky.

Vandaag reed De Ex NS 466 van Stichting De Karel een extra rit ter ere van de tien jarige samenwerking van RTB-Cargo en Hutchison Ports. De rit ging op eigen kracht van Amerfoort naar Rotterdam Ysselnmonde. Omdat "De Karel" niet onder 25kV inzetbaar is, werd het treinstel hier aan de RTB-Cargo locomotief 193 945 gekoppeld en zo zou de rit voortgezet worden naar de Maasvlakte.

Today, the Ex NS 466 of the De Karel Foundation made an extra trip in honor of the ten-year collaboration between RTB-Cargo and Hutchison Ports. The ride went under its own power from Amerfoort to Rotterdam Ysselnmonde. Because "De Karel" cannot be used under 25kV, the trainset was coupled here to the RTB-Cargo locomotive 193 945 and so the journey would continue to the Maasvlakte.

Záhony in the North East corner of Hungary is the border station for the line to Čop (Chop) in the Ukraine. Between the two towns either side of the Tisza River the line is of mixed gauge (1435/1524mm) allowing traffic in both directions although at this location only freight used both gauges running to trans shipment yards on either side of the border. The passenger service tended to be standard gauge only with passengers changing trains in Čop or on long distance workings the coaches changed bogies in Čop.

On the standard gauge (1435mm) tracks in Záhony station are two MÁV passenger workings, one diesel one electric.

On the left M41-2132 has just arrived with train 6354 the 12.15 from Mátészalka. While on the right staff gather in front of V43-1086 waiting to form train 6243 the 14.00 to Nyíregyháza. At the time 23 years ago photography at locations like this could often attract unwanted official attention hence probably the reason the railway staff are staring. It was usually a case of take a couple of shots and return the camera to the bag and disappear. The Ukraine had only gained independence from the Soviet Union 17 months earlier but little had changed when it came to border regions like here so still plenty of barbed wire, watch towers and no mans land to look cross.

Light spreads across the lowlands of the Colorado River basin, creating intriguing shapes and forms that can be observed from Dead Horse Point.

"...Vincent, it's me! Open the door! I need to talk to you now!"

After such an exciting (though socially exhausting) day, hearing Damien's persistent tone on the other side of the door caused him to tense as if he'd been doused with cold water. This was not how he would have liked to end his day! He really didn't want to deal with Damien right now, but he couldn't pretend he wasn't home anymore. He'd hoped Damien would have let him know before coming over. Vincent already felt a stress-headache coming on. He put the safety back on his pistol and gave a soft sigh. He could do this.

But as Vincent reached for the lock so he could let Damien in, the door was knocked on again! Vincent stared at the door and scowled. Well, that was rude of him, he thought sourly. He was sorely tempted to leave Damien out there even longer but then Damien called through the door again, "Come on, Vincent! Don't leave me out here like this. I thought you said you wanted to talk this out!"

Inhaling sharply through his nose, Vincent grit his teeth. Damien didn't need to make such a loud commotion for the whole building to hear! Deciding just to get this over with he let out some tension as he exhaled. Then he reached for the door, unlocked it, and pulled the door open to stare stoically up at his best friend of six years with his pistol resting at his side defenselessly.

Damien stared back at him with a look Vincent had seen many times; just never directed at him. In his interrogation mode, Damien's brows furrowed deeply and eyes darkened a certain way that could send chills down the spine of almost anyone who received it. His arms were folded over his chest and, in Vincent's opinion, he looked more impatient than he'd ever seen him. Vincent, however, was not like most people, and he maintained his stoic exterior. But oh, he was offended! Who the Hell did Damien think he was?! He opened his mouth to put Damien in his place but Damien cut in just a tiny bit faster.

"Are you alone?" Damien demanded quietly. Vincent blinked at him with just a hint of surprise at this question. He barely had a chance to utter, "Yes?" before Damien nodded and brushed past him to enter the flat. He grunted, "Good. We have much to discuss and I don't want any interruptions this time."

"What is the meaning of this?" Vincent asked incredulously as he pushed the door closed with a groan. "I was expecting you to let me know when you were coming over first. You always let me know first." And when he turned to look at Damien, he found Damien standing nearly an arm's length away and glowering at him.

"Well, I was expecting a bit more loyalty from YOU!"

"Loyalty?!"

"Yes! Why should I do what you want me to do when you won't do what 'I' want? All I wanted to do was to talk this out....just you and me. And all anyone else can do is put their nose in where it doesn't belong."

"It had nothing to do with Aiden!"

But at the mention of their engineer's name, Damien's nostrils flared and he spat out, "See how quickly you think of 'him?' You are proving my point. No, Vincent, it has EVERYTHING to do with YOU!" He pointed his finger right at Vincent's chest and accused, "You are throwing me to the side like a discarded, rotted apple core on the side of the road for the rats! I didn't even mention anyone in particular and already your mind went to him! Aiden this! Aiden that! Why does he even matter anyway?" Damien pressed his hands to his own chest and his expression implored Vincent to see his side as he pleaded, "Don't you care about me at all, Vincent?"

Fleetingly, Vincent was amazed that Damien had the courage to behave and speak to him like this when Vincent was armed. Despite his calm exterior, he was growing more confused and upset at Damien's onslaught of unexpected feelings. However, it was as Aiden was brought up that it shifted into anger. Vincent was done. He was going to put him in his place once and for all! But damn it all Damien asked him if he cared about him at all and Vincent felt like the wind had been knocked out of him! He felt as if he couldn't focus on what he was upset about anymore as he grappled with the unexpected, emotional question.

Of course he cared about Damien! Damien was like a brother to him! He loved him as much despite their current situation. It was what made it hurt so much worse as each second of this whole interaction passed. Had....he been unfair to Damien somehow? He did want to work things out! After all, he'd gone to Damien's temporary residence as Damien had told him before many times to do if he ever needed anything. Unlike Vincent, Damien didn't care if anyone simply dropped in. Damien's sister had insisted once before that it was fine if he stopped in anytime. Honestly, he'd wondered if Damien had nudged her into it but he was grateful to be able to see his friend all the same.

"Of course, I care about you," Vincent relented as his stoic expression faded and a small, sad frown pulled at his lips. Was that how Damien felt about him? About their friendship? "That's not fair, Damien. How can you even say that after everything we've been through?"

"I can say the same about you," Damien responded with just a touch of edge in his voice as he reached out with his metallic arm and pressed his mechanical hand to the door behind Vincent and leaned in slightly; almost a touch dangerously. It made Vincent tense involuntarily as he stared back up at him. However, Damien's voice softened and he sounded and looked hurt.

"I just wanted to talk. And you sent me away."

"I-I just..."

"You just what, Vincent?"

Vincent shrank back slightly against the door and gazed up at his best friend before sighing. Finally he replied, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you feel like you don't matter." At his words, Damien's aggression dissipated as he smiled more. "I knew you would understand. I forgive you," Damien responded as his hand slid to squeeze Vincent's shoulder before resting there. Vincent glanced at his hand then gave a small nod before turning and brushing past Damien to head towards the veranda to get some air. As he walked past a bookshelf, he set down his gun then proceeded to run his hands through his hair. Bloody Hell...

Damien let his hand fall to his side as he turned slowly in place to visually follow Vincent's figure as he made to step outside. His eyes narrowed before he began to follow him out. Was something else wrong?

Out on the veranda, Vincent inhaled slowly and deeply through his nostrils before slowly exhaling as he glanced up at the evening sky. While he didn't mean to make Damien feel like he didn't matter, Damien's behavior as of late was....not okay. He really needed to talk to him about it. He needed to get to the bottom of it once and for all. Vincent could hear Damien following him out onto the veranda behind him. This was his chance to talk it out....just the two of them.

"Look... Damien..." Vincent turned to face Damien and he spoke sincerely as he tried to reason and understand. "I don't know what's been going on lately. I don't like this contention going on between us. I want you to talk to me. Tell me what's going on."

"There's nothing to talk about. You already apologized."

"Yes but that's not what I'm talking about."

"Then what ARE you talking about?"

"The contention going on between us lately; 'before' just the day before. Surely, you've felt it too?"

"Contention?"

"Yes. That's what I said."

"I don't know what you mean."

Damien looked genuinely confused! Vincent just couldn't understand why Damien didn't see what he was talking about. If he was being honest with himself, he had only noticed it during the last few weeks. Prior to that, they'd gotten on well enough and had always been able to work things out. It only seemed to be getting worse....and for some reason it felt like it was only around Aiden. He couldn't quite figure it out. Surely, that couldn't be it, he thought. Surely, Damien would tell him if he had a problem with Aiden! Up until the day before yesterday, the two seemed to have worked out whatever problem they had. But apparently they hadn't and something still seemed off between them even the other day. But...hadn't it always? Vincent had not forgotten what Bernadette had told him about Damien and Aiden's quarrel while he was still abed with high fever. He trusted she would never lie to him; especially about something like that. Therefore, he had taken her word that they had worked it. After all, Aiden hadn't come to him about Damien's misconduct. Was there not as big of a problem as he believed it was? Or was it just worse under the surface?

"Well," Vincent cleared his throat and began calmly, "that aside, I wanted to talk to you about something else. Just...I want to have a heart to heart, okay? Two days ago-"

"But you-"

"Don't interrupt me. Please let me finish."

Damien scowled but he closed his mouth and folded his arms over his chest defensively. However he did keep his mouth closed as he quirked his brow at Vincent and waited for whatever he was going to tell him. Opposite him, Vincent stared up at him calmly and waited for him. Once he saw Damien was actually going to listen he continued.

"Two days ago when you and I were speaking, some of the things you said to me were out of line." Vincent watched Damien's jaw tighten as his jaw clenched. Vincent felt a sinking feeling in the pit of his stomach but tried to explain how he felt anyway. "You really hurt my feelings; especially when you accused me of being too intoxicated." And, sure enough, he'd barely had a chance to utter the last word of his sentence before Damien cut in defensively, "Well YOU hurt MY feelings!"

"I know, and I already apologized. But I still want to talk about what you-"

"You know I can't help what I say when I get angry!"

"Damien, don't you see?! THIS is what I'm talking about! We never argue like this!"

"You are just mad that I called you out on it!" He took a step closer and poked Vincent's chest which caused him to gasp in surprise! "It's not MY fault you like to overindulge in alcohol and herbs! Damn it, Vincent! You know what? Sometimes it's hard to tell if it's 'you' I'm talking to, or your addictions!"

Vincent's face fell, and for the second time this week he very nearly broke down completely. He bit his lower lip and gave a small nod before turning and facing away from Damien. He defensively folded his arms over his chest as his shoulders sank depressingly. That had hurt. It had hurt a lot. Was that really how Damien felt?

Damien sighed. He ran his hands over his face then peeked at Vincent through his fingers. Vincent still wasn't looking at him. He was just...standing there dejectedly and hurt. Frowning slightly, Damien stepped closer and placed his hand on Vincent's shoulder. At his touch, however, Vincent turned away more; clearly not wanting to be touched.

"What do you want me to say, Vincent? I'm sorry, okay?"

After several seconds of no response, Damien huffed and leaned around him and peered at the side of his face. Still nothing. In fact, Vincent turned his head away from him even more! 'Damn it all!' Damien thought. He groaned softly and leaned his forearms against the railing and leaned against it. He hung his head down slightly before glancing back at Vincent.

"Come on. You know I didn't mean that," he tried again, his voice softening. This time he sounded more sincere. "I really am sorry, Vincent. You know sometimes I say things I don't mean. Don't let this silly misunderstanding ruin what we have." At this, Vincent took a deep breath and slowly let it out before turning to glance over his shoulder at Damien, his gaze lifting towards his face but unable to meet his eyes.

"Is that what you really think of me?"

"I just said I didn't. Look, why don't we just start over and put all this behind us? We agree there have been misunderstandings and things done and said that we don't mean."

Vincent licked his lips as he considered that. Maybe Damien was right and it would be best to put it behind them and move on from it. While things had never escalated this much, they had done the same thing in the past once they reached an understanding. It always seemed to work out and they were fine again. Though, this time Aiden was a third party in this. Would things be okay with Aiden too?

"What about Aiden?"

"He will be fine! And if he can't work this out with me, it's not a big deal. He can leave just like the others did and go back to that little garage you plucked him out of." Damien gave a noncommittal shrug then confidently slid his arm around Vincent's shoulders and drew him to his side with an encouraging grin. Much to his delight he watched as Vincent lifted his gaze to finally look at him and gave a small smile and replied, "I suppose you're right."

"Of course I am!" Damien tightened his arm around Vincent's shoulders and jostled him gently with a chuckle. "You and me against the world, right?"

Vincent smiled a bit more and nodded. "Yeah, you and me against the world." Damien grinned and looked up at the sky and continued to ramble on about how he couldn't wait to get back up into the air. Beside him, Vincent's gaze lowered and he looked down at the railing. He could feel his mood sinking more and more. He couldn't help feeling like he hadn't really had a chance to get out what he wanted to say. It felt unfinished on Vincent's end but they HAD agreed it was a misunderstanding and to just move on from it. He decided to push it down and just...tuck it away. Perhaps things would just get better after all; just like Damien was saying. However, there was still something he couldn't seem to shake.

While he had voiced his agreement, the idea of Aiden leaving because he couldn't work things out with Damien made him feel even worse; somehow even worse than this unfinished business with Damien. Aiden was NOT like the handful of others who had departed from Leon's Claw. Aiden was special...important. He didn't want to see him go!

"...and in a few weeks your ribs will be healed! Guh...I'm so bored. I can't wait to get back in the air again," Damien was saying beside him. He appeared not to notice Vincent's quick-sinking depression. Perhaps it was better that way, Vincent figured. He really didn't want to upset Damien even more tonight. He was tired and growing more and more exhausted. Honestly, he just wanted to be done. He wanted to be alone. More than anything, he just wanted to escape. However, Vincent noticed Damien didn't seem ready to leave anytime soon. He'd have to do something about that.

"You're right!" Vincent replied with a small smirk, nudging Damien gently with his elbow as an idea had suddenly come to him. All he had to do was play along to keep Damien in a good enough mood. "Just a few more weeks. You're worried about being bored right? So why don't you keep yourself entertained by going to your family's gathering?" Damien opened his mouth and was about to interrupt but Vincent turned in Damien's arm and quickly added, "I know you want to stay here with me but all I'm going to be doing is sitting around. Boring. I'm boring."

"Are you trying to get rid of me?"

"I am pointing out the benefits if you go...such as the amazing food you KNOW will be there and you can share all your new adventures with everyone. It's been a long while since you've been there. You know everyone loves to hear when you tell a story! It would be fun!"

Damien gave a smug smirk and shrug as Vincent stroked his ego. He was right: everyone DID enjoy a good story and Damien had plenty to share now. The younger generations of his family all seemed to look up to him. It never failed to boost his ego.

"Honestly," Vincent continued, "you won't miss a thing. I intend to spend the next few weeks with my nose in a book."

"You'd rather choose a book over my company? How nice."

"Hmph! I keep telling you I'm not nice!"

Damien laughed and lifted his arm off of Vincent's shoulder so he could turn and face him properly as he leaned against the railing. Vincent turned fully to face him and gave him a small, amused smirk. "There are no plans except to sit and rest. Honest. No more adventures for me for a while. I am going to be resting. Bernadette's orders. Go with your sister. Go enjoy your vacation away and just have fun! You deserve it! You'll be back in three weeks from now, yes? By then my ribs should be good enough to go sailing! You and I can go together and then you can tell me all about your trip. It will give us both something to look forward to!"

"Fine," Damien finally agreed with a small chuckle. "I suppose you're right." He chuckled before he reached over his head and stretched and felt his back pop where he needed it and let himself drift off with thoughts of going to his family reunion after all.

"Good! It's decided!" Vincent agreed before Damien could change his mind. He had to fight to actually sigh with relief. While he truly did enjoy Damien's friendship, right now he really needed time away from him. It was best just to let him be happy and just...get past this for now. Maybe one day they could actually talk this out like he wanted to. He also figured that this time apart might be just what Damien and Aiden needed as well.

"Well since I'm here why don't we have dinner at The Fat Lady's? We can celebrate getting past all this messy business!" Damien was saying, but already Vincent felt his stomach lurch at the idea; especially at the mention of the tavern where Thorn and Micah had accused him of gambling. He smiled weakly and shook his head. "I appreciate the offer, but I think I will need to postpone. Why don't we celebrate tomorrow instead?"

"How come?"

"How come? Because I am not ready to go out tonight. I have a headache brewing, my ribs are aching, and I was not prepared for company let alone ready to go out in public tonight." Vincent pleaded exhaustedly. He just wanted to be left alone! And indeed, Damien finally began to see how tired Vincent looked. He did look a bit pale, didn't he? His brow furrowed in concern and asked, "Vincent, why didn't you say so? I could have just come back another time!"

Vincent fought back the knee-jerk reaction of angrily calling Damien a rather creative, colorful name. Instead, he sighed and just snorted at the irony of the situation and went to head back inside. Damien could have started with that when he first arrived! he thought.

Finally Vincent managed in a convincing voice as he paused at the door: "It's fine. Don't worry about it. Come on. I'll see you out."

Driftwood is a form of marine debris or "tidewrack" (rubbish deposited along the shore by the receding tide) and is abundant along the coast of northern California. It is wood that has been washed ashore by the action of winds, tides or waves. The driftwood provides shelter and food for birds, fish and other aquatic species as it floats in the ocean. Gribbles, shipworms and bacteria decompose the wood and gradually turn it into nutrients that are reintroduced to the food web. Sometimes, the partially decomposed wood washes ashore, where it also shelters birds, plants, and other species. It is also a collectible that can be used as part of decorative furniture or other art forms.

Mask (noun).

1. Covering for all or part of the face as a disguise or for protection.

2. Some kind of behaviour for pretension to be, passing oneself of as, impersonating, simulating or posing as.

 

As long time Japanese antique collector I took masks of old Japanese theatre Noh and Kyogen for definition of this word...

 

The date of man's invention of masks is unknown, their use is certainly several thousands years old. It's a fact that masks in one form or another have made their appearance in every culture shows how important role they have played in a human life.

 

With the development of dance and true drama, masks became less primitive and more artistic. Immobility of a mask, which seems such a disadvantage when compared with the living human face, makes about it a certain air of the supernatural and fantastic, that's why masks are widely used up to the present day.

 

Among the people of the world who still actively use masks, the Japanese are in many ways outstanding. Let's go back to 14th century when theatre No and Kyogen begins his history and the masks of this show became one of the finest dramatic masks the world has ever seen. I try briefly summarize the characteristics of the Noh and Kyogen masks. Mask of Noh is a mask of tragedy, mask of the Kyogen is the mask of comedy. A typical present-day No performance consists of five Noh plays, divided of three comic interludes of Kyogen, both the tragic and the comic elements being heightened in effect for the best contrasting result. Good and evil in Noh drama reflects these both sides of real life...

 

In real life you also making choice between good and evil. Many people wearing masks covering their real personality, as a artists playing roles not really belonging to them and as final result ruining the life of themselves or others. Make a right choice between good and evil, take a right mask or even take it off, throw it away and be yourself.

 

All masks and pictures used for this image are from my collection.

Shadow play or shadow puppetry is an ancient form of storytelling and entertainment using opaque, often articulated figures in front of an illuminated backdrop to create the illusion of moving images. It is popular in various cultures. At present, more than 20 countries are known to have shadow show troupes.

The Turkish tradition of shadow play called Karagöz and Hacivat was widespread throughout the Ottoman Empire and featured characters representing all of the major ethnic and social groups in that culture. It was performed by a single puppet master, who voiced all of the characters, and accompanied by a classical Ottoman music ensemble. Its origins are obscure, deriving perhaps from an older Egyptian tradition, or possibly from an Asian source.

During the 19th century these characters were adapted to the Greek language and culture, Karagöz and Hacivat becoming Karagiozis and Hadjiavatis with each of the characters assuming stereotypically Greek personalities. This tradition thrived throughout Greece after independence as popular entertainment for a largely adult audience, particularly before competition arose from television. The stories did, however, retain the period setting in the late years of the Ottoman Empire. Karagiozis theatre has undergone some revival in recent years, with the intended audience tends largely juvenile.

Forme sombre ou bleue - Dark or blue specie

Saw this cliff erosion at Del Valle Regional Park a few days ago. When I zoomed in, I could see the banding reminiscent of the landscapes in the southwest of Utah. Perhaps, in a few thousand years, any erosion from the wind would make hoodoos out of this.

The building, centre of picture, is the White Tomkins & Courage grain silo, Stanley Dock Liverpool, built c1913.

 

Grain imports were a quintessential component of Liverpool's historic port activity, employing several generations of local people. This particular building even had its own railway siding and the tracks still remain in place.

 

Apart from being of local heritage value the White Tomkins & Courage grain silo is a good (and locally rare) example of "industrial classicism" architecture. This evolved in the early 20th century as part of the Modern movement, promoted in Germany by Behrens, Loos, Gropius and Le Corbusier, whose key aesthetic aims were : -

(1) rejection of all unnecessary ornamentation

(2) use of the smooth, flat "modern materials" (reinforced concrete)

(3) expression of the building structure on the elevations as an integral component of the architecture

(4) in the absence of ornamentation, more focus on proportional perfection

 

This Liverpool dock estate building has all of these qualities in abundance in spite of an industrial silo being generally regarded as potentially a "low grade" architectural commission.

 

The White Tomkins & Courage building was demolished in September 2017. This action was taken following a local planning consultant's report that it was obstructing the conversion of the dock warehouses into residential accommodation and was "of no architectural or historic value".

Hattingen Henrichshütte, exhibition foundry.

 

Forming, melting, casting, cleaning - since September 1997, the central work steps of casting can be experienced in the LWL Museum Henrichshütte Hattingen. In the Hattinger Museum of the Westphalia-Lippe Regional Association (LWL), the show foundry teaches museum guests the principle of molding and the fascination of casting. Experiments are carried out with aluminum in an electric melting furnace and with bronze and iron in a coke oven. Models made of wood and molds made of sand are created by hand. “At the hut” is being poured again, although no longer in tons, but only in kilograms. Visit the exhibition operations of the Industriemuseum Henrichshütte e.V. support association on the grounds of the LWL Museum Henrichshütte in Hattingen.

We visited a very dimly lit Batemans today, the former home of Rudyard Kipling. Lovely house and gardens to wander around, nice and quiet when it's this cold!

This is the result of a day-long visit to northern Georgia, Murray County to be specific. Joining me on the trip were my good friends from Atlanta, Alan Cressler and Henning von Schmeling.

 

There were wildflowers galore, including some very rare ones and ones yet to be named. Included were a couple of "life list" ones for me, so it was a super botanizing day!

 

To read the full trip report, please go to Jim's Blog.

Two shots of June Lake CA, stitched together to form a panoramic shot. After leaving the heat of Death Valley in the morning, by mid afternoon we were in the snow covered mountains. Sure glad I decided to keep a pair of jeans on the back seat to change into.

La Farmacia La Estrella forma parte de la historia nacional. Fue el Dr. Bernardino Rivadavia el creador de esta primera botica de la ciudad de Buenos Aires, cuando en 1834 encargó a un importante bioquímico y botánico la dirección de la misma. Con el tiempo, y ya bajo otro dominio, se sumó la droguería a la farmacia, llegando a convertirse en la más importante de Sudamérica. Fue en 1885 cuando la farmacia La Estrella inauguró este edificio con una decoración que impactaba por su valor artístico y detalles de gran nivel: cristales de murano, estanterías de nogal, mármol de carrara, y los frescos en los cielorrasos del artesano Barberis que se destacan por los simbolismos que aluden a “la salud”, “la enfermedad” y “la farmacopea”. Su fachada ostentan una herrería original en sus puertas y una cargada ornamentación, en la que tres angelitos parecen dejarse caer hacia la nada. La Estrella tuvo su fama bien ganada gracias a la oferta de prestigiosos productos originales, que aún son recordados con nostalgia: la limonada Roge, el tónico esperidina, y las píldoras para la tos Parodi, entre tantos otros. Además de su actividad comercial, en sus salones se realizaron importantes tertulias por donde pasaron las figuras más destacadas del ámbito político como Carlos Pelligrini, Julio A. Roca, y Bartolomé Mitre, entre otros. Es el comercio más antiguo de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires, que aún conserva su estilo y sus detalles originales de gran valor estético, gracias a lo cual ha merecido numerosos premios y reconocimientos. Hoy sigue prestando servicios de laboratorio Homeopático y Alopático de recetas magistrales, y ofrece importantes productos de herbonistería y perfumería.

Thanks for viewing!

Taken years ago at the end of East Long Island Road in North Grand Pre. Tens of thousands of Sandpipers had been sleeping on the beach below the dyke facing Boot Island when a falcon appeared and started to dive on them. Once the flock took off the falcon flew straight through it and snagged several Sandpipers. I remember the sound of their wings was like the wind, and the motion of the cloud they formed was really something to see as it billowed and flexed in response to the attack of the falcon. After the falcon had left with its meal, the flock settled down on the shore again.

 

The mudflats of the upper Bay of Fundy is a great place to photograph masses of Sandpipers as they feed in preparation for their fall migration. Only once have I been in the right place at the right time to see this happening.

 

This was taken before the arrival of the falcon with a Nikon F3 and a borrowed Nikon 500mm f/4 P lens. Swiveling the camera around for a minute, seeking an interesting composition that wouldn't look like a drab lumpy carpet, I spotted this rock with two birds asleep on top and another pair in front. I thought it a bit unusual that the rock sat in the middle of an area of bare ground, almost as if the birds were avoiding it for some reason.

 

This is an image from an Ektachrome 400 slide copied with a Nikon D3500 camera, Micro-Nikkor 55mm f/3.5 lens fitted with a Nikon 4T close-up lens, with a Sigma 1.6x achromatic close-up lens on the 4T. The slide carrier from a Spiratone Bello-Dupliscope was mounted on the Sigma. Lighting was provided by a 5000k LED bulb in a small goose-neck table lamp. A large ground glass screen was placed between the lamp and the slide carrier.

Un film.

 

La Forme de l'Eau.

 

Treize nominations aux Oscars.

 

Une fable sous la forme d'un magnifique film !

Cela nous fait penser à la diversité, à l'amour au-delà des frontières,

aucune bête, aucune beauté, aucune sexiste ou féministe, pas tellement,

juste très attachant et très charmant !

 

Je sais, tu essaieras de résister,

mais finalement un jour vous regarderez

et vous ne serez pas capable de oublier.

 

Pour quelle raison ?

 

C'est un film dans une belle fable, que vous trouverez dans cette action,

pour se retrouver à si meme dans les profondeurs de votre perception.

 

Oui, vous pouvez,

dans le 21 février

au cinéma.

 

"C’est quand on arrive à ce que le public fasse Ahh!"

 

oui surprenant Réalisateur je suis d'accord

 

: ]

 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

L'art du cinéma nous surprend rapidement

et d'un côté à l'autre elle nous joue,

initialement esthétiquement et à la fin dans notre intériorité,

même dans nos plus profonds préjugés,

 

oui Chaplin avait raison, le cinéma est la vie en mouvement,

oui, labourer la terre à la fin de l'hiver comment

couper et doulers comme aussi sur vous,

mais les graines germent

toujours.

 

Oui, ne l'oublie pas mon ami(e).
