➤ The Crystal Heart Festival - July 30th - August 27th

This is a pair of Common Blue Damselflies 'in the wheel' forming a heart shape. Damselfly sex is complicated, so pay attention!
The (blue) male initiates the reproductive process by depositing some sperm from his primary genitalia near the tip of his tail onto secondary genitalia under the 2nd segment of his abdomen (just below his 'chest') . Grasping a female by the back of her head or 'prothorax', they fly around in tandem until she is ready to collect the sperm, which she does by looping around so she can collect the sperm with her genitalia located near the tip of her tail - which is what is happening in this picture. They can remain like this for a few seconds or a few minutes, and can even fly around conjoined like this. At some point, she will straighten out, and then they fly in tandem to a nearby stretch of slow flowing water where she will deposit her eggs. I believe that the eggs are not fertilized until they are laid, so it is important the male keeps hold of her until the eggs are deposited to prevent other males from mating with her. The damselflies play no role in caring for their offspring and, in fact, only live a matter of weeks in the winged form. The eggs hatch and develop over a few weeks and the nymphs grow, shedding their skins several times over at least one year, some species multiple years, until, when the time is right, the final 'instar' climbs up a plant stem and sheds its skin to emerge as the final, flying adult form - transitioning from water breathing to air breathing in the process. The adult forms only live for a few weeks, spending that time eating and breeding. Odonata (damselflies and dragonflies) are amongst the most successful animals on earth, surviving virtually unchanged (apart from size) for hundreds of millions of years, being found in fossil records. No species has evolved from them - it seems any mutation makes them less successful.
All these mentions of sex, mating, copulation, sperm and genitals will get lots of hits by people searching for porn on Flickr!
Maya Bay, nestled on Thailand’s Phi Phi Leh Island, is famed for its surreal beauty—towering limestone cliffs, powdery white sands, and turquoise waters. An adventure into Maya Bay is more than just a beach visit; it’s a blend of awe and adrenaline.
Typically, the adventure begins with a boat ride, often from Phi Phi Don or even Phuket or Krabi. Longtail boats or speedboats slice through the Andaman Sea, with ocean spray and tropical breezes heightening the sense of anticipation. As you approach, the cliffs form a dramatic embrace around the bay—making it feel like a hidden world.
Star forming region in Cassiopeia.
So many structures to see in this nebula, it is full of pillars and interesting formations.
The Soul Nebula, also known as IC 1848, is an emission nebula in the constellation Cassiopeia. It's about 100 light-years across and is located about 6,500 light-years from Earth.
Characteristics:
The Soul Nebula is close to the Heart Nebula, another large emission nebula.
The Soul Nebula is connected to the Heart Nebula by a bridge of material.

Single Form, by Barbara Hepworth.
This sculpture stands in Battersea Park London, on the South shore of the lake, and is a smaller version of the one that stands at the United Nations in New York.
The first cast was made in 1963, and was displayed in an open air sculpture exhibition in Battersea Park.
In October that year, It was was shipped to America. It was donated to the Johns Hopkins University, and displayed in Washington D.C.
A second cast was also made in 1963, and was bought by the London County Council and installed at Battersea Park. (pictured here)
Hepworth doubled the size for a casting that would become the largest bronze artwork ever cast at Morris Singer's London foundry.
It was commissioned for the United Nations building, and was erected in New York in May 1964. This bigger version weighs 5.5 tonnes, and stands 6.4m high.
It has now stood at the United Nations for 60 years.

The rocks on the beaches of the Northern Finistere (Bretagne, France) as an example of Modernist Photography as created in the beginning of the 20th century.
I really did enjoy shooting tens of pictures during a storm with wind speeds up to 138km/h. Nature at its best.
The "AP Hogeschool Antwerpen" is an interesting piece of architecture. This shot was taken on a rainy day - just between to showers :)
Water, whether still or in motion, has so great an attraction for the lover of nature, that the most beautiful landscape seems scarcely complete without it. There are no effects so fascinating as those produced by the reflections in nature’s living mirror, with their delicacy of form, ever fleeting and changing, and their subtle combinations of color. ~ Montagu Pollock

Frank Lloyd Wright
the sun is a sharp chisel, carving light into the tiled floor.
the shopping cart casts a shadow of industrial purpose, a precise grid.
nearby, the soft curve of another shadow, drawn by an unseen lamp.
it shapes the space, an artificial sun in an artificial world.
between form and function, a silent geometry of commerce unfolds.

The rock formation "Twelve Apostles" in morning light. Australia is still closed for most tourists. So, all we have left are "postcards" like this one.
"Die zwölf Apostel" strahlen in der Morgensonne. Australien ist immer noch für die meisten Touristen geschlossen. Also, bleiben uns nur "Postkarten" wie diese.
Monaco, en forme longue la principauté de Monaco, en monégasque Principatu de Mu̍negu, est un État d'Europe de l'Ouest,
Elle est située au bord de la mer Méditerranée, le long de la Côte d'Azur, à une vingtaine de kilomètres à l’est de Nice, et à 8,1 km de Menton, ville frontalière avec l'Italie.
Entourée par les villes françaises de Cap-d'Ail, Beausoleil, Roquebrune-Cap-Martin et La Turbie, la principauté dispose d'un accès direct à la mer et d'eaux territoriales rejoignant les eaux internationales ; elle n'est donc pas un territoire enclavé à proprement parler.
El proyecto Metropol Parasol es una estructura en forma de pérgola de madera y hormigón ubicada en la céntrica plaza de la Encarnación de la ciudad de Sevilla. Cuenta con unas dimensiones de 150 metros de largo, 70 metros de ancho y una altura aproximada de 26 metros. Su base alberga un mercado tradicional y locales de restauración en la planta baja, una plaza de espectáculos y el museo arqueológico Antiquarium. La estructura se corona con una terraza y un mirador que ofrece una vista panorámica del casco antiguo de la ciudad.
La obra, compuesta principalmente de madera laminada, está formada por una gran retícula en forma de parasol sostenida sobre seis pilares que abarcan tanto la plaza de la Encarnación como la Plaza Mayor de la ciudad. Cada una de sus costillas componen una distribución espacial donde cada nervadura ofrece una curvatura propia, lo cual aporta al conjunto una sensación de movimiento ondulatorio. Aunque su diseño está inspirado en las bóvedas de la Catedral de Sevilla, por su perfil fungiforme, pronto recibió por parte de los ciudadanos el nombre de ‘Las Setas’.
El proyecto fue el ganador del concurso abierto por el Ayuntamiento de Sevilla para llevar a cabo la rehabilitación de la plaza en la que se ubica. Su diseñador fue el arquitecto berlinés Jürgen Mayer. Por su diseño vanguardista y funciones turísticas, se ha convertido en un icono del centro histórico y de la ciudad de Sevilla. En enero de 2013, el espacio Metropol Parasol fue elegido, entre los 335 proyectos candidatos, como uno de cinco proyectos finalistas del Premio de Arquitectura Contemporánea Mies van der Rohe que conceden bianualmente la Unión Europea y la fundación Fundación Mies van der Rohe.
Las obras comenzaron el 26 de junio de 2005. Las múltiples dificultades que surgieron sobre las obras produjeron controversias y retrasos que triplicaron el coste previsto de la obra hasta llegar a los 100 millones de euros. Finalmente, el Metropol Parasol fue inaugurado el 27 de marzo de 2011 y desde entonces se ha consolidado como uno de los principales atractivos turísticos de la ciudad, llegando a alcanzar el millón de visitantes en su primer año.
