Sitting on top of the world ......
- unfortunately on a foggy day so the mountain tops cannot be seen
- photo taken from the Stubnerkogel (2,230m), Bad Gastein - Austria
- the experience that I have been there is more important than the view
- what was to be seen can be found via the internet
- although I would rather have seen it live ✔✔
I loved this magnificent pond surrounded by two-hundred year old plane trees, what a wonderful place to stroll in the shade protected from the heat of summer.
We are in a charming little village in the Luberon which bears the sweet name of Cucuron (it cannot be invented!).
Local tradition attributes the origin of the village name to Julius Caesar, like many of Provencal cities. The latter, seeing the locals running, would have pronounced the Latin phrase “cur currunt? ("Why are they running?").
In fact Cucuron, under various spellings, is a toponym frequent in southern France, with the sense of culmination, mound.
The origin of its name comes from the geographical location of the place, built on two nipples (in Celtic: "cuc = nipple").

Le bassin fantastique
J'ai adoré ce magnifique bassin entouré de platanes bi-centenaires, voilà un endroit merveilleux pour flaner bien à l'ombre à l'abri de la chaleur de l'été.
On est dans un charmant petit village du Lubéron qui porte le doux nom de Cucuron (ça ne s'invente pas !).
La tradition locale attribue l'origine du nom du village à Jules César, comme nombre de communes provençales. Ce dernier, voyant les habitants du lieu courir, aurait prononcé la locution latine « cur currunt ? » (« Pourquoi courent-ils ? »).
En fait Cucuron, sous des graphies diverses, est un toponyme fréquent dans la France méridionale, avec le sens de point culminant, monticule.
L'origine de son nom tient à la situation géographique du lieu, bâti sur deux mamelons (en celte: "cuc = mamelon").

The great mountains of Saudi Arabia in Tabuk Region. This valley is surrounded by high mountains peaks, rocky edges of wonderful shapes, carved by water, sand and air, forming beautiful columns.
The region has history of past civilization including Prophet Moses, Prophet Shuaib and Prophet Mohammad (PBUH).
The mountains were carved by then civilization to create homes with beautiful architecture and design.
The Tabuk region is rich in antiquities and archeological sites.

So you may be wondering what WNPD stands for.
It could be Wednesday Night Pizza Delivery. Or perhaps you are thinking Wildebeests Never Pack Deodorant. It might even be Weirdos Noticing Pointless Details (which, if I'm being honest, is probably a fair self description). More realistically it could be Waffle Ninjas Protecting Doughnuts (a largely unappreciated profession) (blame the recent trip to Japan for that one)
But no, in this case WNPD actually stands for World Nature Photography Day. Which is today!
I wasn't entirely sure whether this photo qualified, so I carefully considered each component of the title:
WORLD: Check. Taken on this world.
NATURE: Confirmed. Definitely nature. You can tell because there are no people in cars (probably Mazdas) driving over bridges (probably three lanes all full of traffic) with spaceships hovering overhead. (That's next week's post.)
PHOTOGRAPHY: Substantiated. It is, in fact, a photograph. Fun fact: the suffix -graphy denotes either a field of study or a manner of writing or representation. In this case, the manner of representation involved standing on some slippery rocks and pressing a button on my Olympus camera.
DAY: Ratified. This was definitely taken during the day. The giveaway is the complete absence of darkness.
Based on the evidence presented, the committee unanimously agreed that this image meets all World Nature Photography Day requirements. (The committee consisted entirely of me)
Have a wonderful World Nature Photography Day, everyone. Thanks for stopping by, and for any comments you choose to leave — they're always appreciated. 😊

Čvava sero po tute
i kerava
jek sano ot mori
i taha jek jak kon kašta
vašu ti baro nebo
avi ker.
kon ovla so mutavla
kon ovla
ovla kon aščovi
me ğava palan ladi
me ğava
palan bura ot croiuti.
Poserò la testa sulla tua spalla
e farò
un sogno di mare
e domani un fuoco di legna
perché l'aria azzurra
diventi casa
chi sarà a raccontare
chi sarà
sarà chi rimane
io seguirò questo migrare
seguirò
questa corrente di ali.
