“The world is reaching the tipping point beyond which climate change may become irreversible.
If this happens, we risk denying present and future generations the right to a healthy and sustainable planet – the whole of humanity stands to lose.”

"Climate change isn’t an ‘issue’ to add to the list of things to worry about, next to health care and taxes. It is a civilizational wake-up call. A powerful message — spoken in the language of fires, floods, droughts, and extinctions — telling us that we need an entirely new economic model and a new way of sharing this planet. Telling us we need to evolve."
(Naomi Klein)

"The political decision-makers who (will) meet at COP26 in Glasgow are urgently summoned to provide effective responses to the present ecological crisis and in this way to offer concrete hope to future generations...
Moments of difficulty like these also present opportunities, opportunities that we must not waste. We can confront these crises by retreating into isolationism, protectionism and exploitation. Or we can see in them a real chance for change, a genuine moment of conversion, and not simply in a spiritual sense."
(Pope Francis)

This museum used to be the house of the sculptor.
Climbing out of lockdown, the framework may be a bit wobbly but the future is brighter.

Das Gebäude der Nord LB in Hannover.
Aus der Mitte der Blockbebauung erhebt sich ein 18-stöckiger Turm von gut 80 m Höhe.Die Spitze des Turmes besteht aus einer gut 20 m hohen Stahl-Glas-Konstruktion,die das Bauwerk optisch überhöht.Die elf zusätzlichen Geschosse des Hochhauses folgen nicht mehr der strengen rechtwinkligen Anordnung des Blocks, sondern sind – in Blöcken zusammengefasst – gegeneinander verdreht. Mit Ausnahme der oberen drei Etagen gibt es im Turm keine zwei gleichen Decken: Die Geschosse sind nicht nur teilweise gegeneinander verdreht, sondern auch gegeneinander zurückversetzt.
Man hielt es für möglich, dass bei Orkan kritische Schwingungen angeregt werden. Im zehnten Stock wurde daher ein kleiner Raum vorgehalten, in dem sich ein 300 t schweres Pendel als Schwingungstilger installieren ließe.
Entworfen wurde das Gebäude von dem Architekturbüro Behnisch, Behnisch & Partner.

An 18-storey tower 80 m high rises from the center of the block development. The top of the tower consists of a 20 m high steel-and-glass construction, which optically increases the height of the building. The 11 additional floors of the high-rise building are no longer following the strict right-angled arrangement of the block, but are - combined in blocks - twisted against each other. With the exception of the top three floors, there are no two identical ceilings in the tower: The floors are not only partially twisted against each other, but also set back against each other.
It was thought possible that critical vibrations could be excited during a hurricane. A small room was therefore reserved on the tenth floor in which a 300-ton pendulum could be installed as a vibration absorber.
The building was designed by the architects Behnisch, Behnisch & Partner.

♥ EXPLORE ♥.....2-25-09.....Best Position #11....THANK YOU FRIENDS!
I may not have to venture far for colors in the near future... like to Lowes or Home Depot, hahaha..... as I'm starting to see signs of Spring in my own back yard. These are crocuses that have come up in my flowerbed. They're really yellow, but I had fun "tweaking" them and this was the final result. Hope you like it.
If anyone wants to see the "before" version, there's a small version below in the 1st comment area.
HAVE A WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY EVERYONE! ♥
... another one from the protests against the presidential election last Friday, and the sign seems ominously true with all that is going on now. ... I've been to more protests and marches this past week than ever before. Thank you all for your comments and concern, I am doing fine so far!
You can look up the information on the photo book by DC photographers documenting the inauguration and the protests around it:

04-May-2022: about turism: my perplexities towards a future with more and more bans and more and more over-taxes.
Lake Bohinj and the much more famous Lake Bled are close (less than 20 km) but the second has a mass tourism now rooted, while the first is expanding its tourist reception in recent years, coming out (unfortunately) from the shadow of Bled, that was a lightning rod for peaceful and symbiotic nature lovers.
I am totally against mass tourism because it transforms a relaxing resort into an area where it is difficult even to access it.
Around Lake Bled, even at a certain distance, there are only paid parking lots, which come to cost 6 euros per hour (about the most decentralized and in May...) that, certainly, leave perplexed about the "tourist selection" that "they" would like to implement (high-end tourism) and, in general, certainly drive away the tourist in search of nature and not restaurants, bars, concrete lake-front and crowd baths.
The naturalist tourist should not feel like a tourist in Nature, which is a single great asset of humanity and that only administratively is divided between various Countries, while in Bled, as in Rimini or Cortina d'Ampezzo, they make you feel not only tourist, but also guest, sometimes unwanted if you spend little.
As tourism increases, so do the bans, because unfortunately mass tourism includes many people who don't know anything about Nature and generally only go to very touristy places to make themselves of...people, sowing dirt and ignorance wherever they move.
The imposition of prohibitions/bans to limit the "damage from mass tourism" affects everyone indiscriminately, including locals and naturalists who have always had a symbiotic relationship with these places, thus making them become inhospitable, at least to those seeking pure contact with nature itself.
Of course this happens all over the world, but it should be condemned.
We already pay State taxes for the maintenance of the slice of Nature that falls within our administration, tourist surcharges, exploiting market laws that should be verified and contained, are for the most part unconstitutional, as well as several prohibitions that deprive access and use of public property.
With the money that the tourist municipalities pocket they could very well implement a targeted prevention (controls by foresters, cameras, ad hoc fences for areas subject to micro-pollution...) rather than closing everything and then de-empowering themself on the maintenance of roads and areas (more and more numerous), thus going to save further, starting from the basic taxes that we pay to also have access to given areas.
I can understand that you tax parking at high altitude to maintain the roads, but the amount of the payment should be directly proportional to the expenses that must be incurred to ensure accessibility, not by putting prices at random and with increases of 200% from one year to the next.
I have always appreciated the fact that Slovenia, thanks also that it is not densely inhabited and has a modest tourism (except precisely Bled, Postojna Caves and the Coast), guarantees a wide accessibility and use of its territories and I hope it can continue, limiting the prohibitions and parking lots everywhere.
For the ones who have been following for a long time, you know how much I like experiencing with blur effect in a natural way, meaning not in photoshop but only by the way I positioned myself. Yesterday I had the chance to photograph this gorgeous Morning Dove at a very close range. It took me at least 45 minutes to get to that range just a bit at a time. She or he was sitting on a log covered by snow and at times, looking for food through the snow. Going through all my images helped me analyzed how I can do it better and found a few things I had not noticed in the past. So in the future, I will position myself that way for a lighter background which gives you the impression of a fog all around the subject. If I had not tried different things, I would have never found this.
