Legend tells how the sun goddess Amanoiwato was lured out of the heavenly rock cave at Takachiho on Kyushu Island, Japan, by other gods to restore light to the world. Visitors erect stone piles here for luck.

It is made with almond batter in five rainbow layers filled
with Raspberry jam and one caramel layers on top,
Dressed with vanilla buttercream and then bathed with
high content cocoa dark coverture from Guatemala,

When I took this picture, I was captivated by the morning light over the lake. The light beaming down on the lake gave it a heavenly look.
In one of the most celestial land on earth, Hunza. Lake of Borit has its majestic, peaceful and romantic presence. Panoramic views of the mountains encircling the lakes fill one's heart with wonder, and the joy of being in the lap of nature.
There is no source to this still water, and there is no destination too. So there is a mystery attached to it as there may be underground water channels that are being fed by the melting glaciers. This makes this place quite and peaceful as there is no gushing waters around. When the surface of a lake is disturbed, ripples are created. The water is no longer still and no longer calm, but water never over-reacts. Similarly, it never under-reacts either. The reaction one witness at Borit Lake is in perfect harmony, creating Heavenly Impression.
Taken: One fine day at the bank of Borit Lake, Upper Hunza, Northern Areas of Pakistan.
After my tedious journey in Krabi and Koh Lanta, the Thai Massage really removed the tiredness from my body.
Imagine yourself getting this massage... the sun setting, the warm breeze from the sea caressing your skin, and... the sound of waves lapping against the sand filtering into your ears... if this is not heavenly... well... it was very close to that... LOL!
The next time you come to Thailand, try the Thai Massage... an experience you will not forget!
Our shadows captured as we were treading rather carefully on Glacier du Dolent, on our way to Mont Dolent 3823m/12543ft, that unique peak where three countries merge, namely France, Italy and Switzerland
"When the green woods laugh with the voice of joy, And the dimpling stream runs laughing by; When the air does laugh with our merry wit, And the green hill laughs with the noise of it."
~Lord Byron
Hope everyone has a wonderful day! Stormy in KC :(

Explore #256 Thanks everyone for all the wonderful comments and favs! I appreciate them sooo much!
Back in 2002, someone threw a lit cigarette out one of these gondolas, igniting the Heavenly Gondola Fire, which burned 260 acres and threatened to overwhelm South Lake Tahoe.
Upon exiting the subway station on Thanksgiving day on my way to a dinner at a friend's, my first thought was "what a celestial sunlight this afternoon". One minute later, this beautiful energy materialized and froze in my frame...

Sunset, Suisun Marsh, Solano County, Northern California.
The Suisun Marsh is the largest contiguous brackish marsh remaining on the west coast of North America. It is a critical part of the San Francisco Bay-Delta estuary ecosystem. Encompassing 116,000 acres, the Suisun Marsh includes 52,000 acres of managed wetlands, 30,000 acres of bays and sloughs, 27,700 acres of uplands, and 6,300 acres of tidal wetlands. It is home to public waterfowl hunting areas and 158 private duck hunting clubs. The Suisun Marsh serves as the resting and feeding ground for tens of thousands of wintering and migrating waterfowl and provides habitat for more than 221 species of birds. The Suisun Marsh supports more than 40 species of fish and 80% of the state's commercial salmon fishery by providing important tidal rearing areas for juvenile fish allowing them to grow twice as fast as those reared in the upper watershed (improving their survival). The Marsh is also home to the endemic Tule Elk, and Federally Endangered Salt Marsh Harvest Mouse. The Marsh's large open space and proximity to vast urban areas makes it ideally suited for wildlife viewing, hiking, canoeing, and other recreation opportunities.
Operations image of the week:
This vivid image shows China’s space station Tiangong-1 – the name means ‘heavenly palace’ – and was captured by French astrophotographer Alain Figer on 27 November 2017. It was taken from a ski area in the Hautes-Alpes region of southeast France as the station passed overhead near dusk.
The station is seen at lower right as a white streak, resulting from the exposure of several seconds, just above the summit of the snowy peak of Eyssina (2837 m altitude). Several artefacts in the original have been removed.
Tiangong-1 is 12 m long with a diameter of 3.3 m and had a launch mass of 8506 kg. It has been unoccupied since 2013 and there has been no contact with it since 2016.
The craft is now at about 280 km altitude in an orbit that will inevitably decay some time in March–April 2018, when it is expected to mostly burn up in the atmosphere.
“Owing to the geometry of the orbit, we can already exclude the possibility that any fragments will fall over any spot further north than 43ºN or further south than 43ºS,” says Holger Krag, head of ESA’s Space Debris Office.
“This means that reentry may take place over any spot on Earth between these latitudes, which includes several European countries, for example.”
“The date, time and geographic footprint can only be predicted with large uncertainties. Even shortly before reentry, only a very large time and geographical window can be estimated.”
The station’s mass and construction materials mean there is a possibility that some portions of it will survive and reach the ground.
In the history of spaceflight, no casualties from falling space debris have ever been confirmed.
ESA is hosting a test campaign to follow the reentry, which will be conducted by the Inter Agency Space Debris Coordination Committee, a grouping of the world’s top space agencies including ESA, NASA and the China National Space Administration.

Nandina domestica, February, picked over by birds, pushing through a handrail in the Sarah P. Duke Gardens.
This Odontoglomsum Orchid was taken while attending Orchid seminar,
There is nothing more beautiful and delicate that stays in bloom for so long, unfortunately only blooms once a year, well at least they have beautiful foliage:-)
The scientific name is derived from the Greek words odon (tooth) and glossa (tongue), referring to the two tooth-like calluses on the base of the lip.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend!

Only Happy When It Rains lyrics
I'm only happy when it rains
I'm only happy when it's complicated
And though I know you can't appreciate it
I'm only happy when it rains
You know I love it when the news is bad
And why it feels so good to feel so sad
I'm only happy when it rains
Pour your misery down, pour your misery down on me
Pour your misery down, pour your misery down on me
I'm only happy when it rains
I feel good when things are going wrong
I only listen to the sad, sad songs
I'm only happy when it rains
I only smile in the dark
My only comfort is the night gone black
I didn't accidentally tell you that
I'm only happy when it rains
You'll get the message by the time I'm through
When I complain about me and you
I'm only happy when it rains
Pour your misery down (Pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down on me (Pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down (Pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down on me (Pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down (Pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down on me (Pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down
You can keep me company
As long as you don't care
I'm only happy when it rains
You wanna hear about my new obsession?
I'm riding high upon a deep depression
I'm only happy when it rains (Pour some misery down on me)
I'm only happy when it rains (Pour some misery down on me)
I'm only happy when it rains (Pour some misery down on me)
I'm only happy when it rains (Pour some misery down on me)
I'm only happy when it rains (Pour some misery down on me).
"That spiritual power I wear is much more beautiful and much greater. We call it wisdom, knowledge, power and gift of love. There are these four parts to that spiritual power. So I wear those. When you wear that power it will beautify your mind and spirit. You become beautiful. Everything that Tunkashila creates is beautiful." ~ Wallace Black Elk, LAKOTA
When I was young, I asked my grandfather, "What should I pray for?" He thought for a long time and then he said, "Pray only for wisdom and for the knowledge of love." This makes a lot of sense. No matter what happens I ask the Creator to show me the lessons I should be learning. I pray for Him to help me learn the lessons. By doing this everyday we become beautiful human beings.
Great Spirit, grant me Your wisdom.
* patience * ~ song lyrics by take that

Just have a little, patience
I'm still hurting from a love I lost,
I'm feeling your frustration,
But any minute all the pain will stop,
Just hold me close inside your arms tonight,
Don't be too hard on my emotions
(Chorus)
Cause I, need time,
My heart is numb, has no feeling,
So while I'm still healing,
Just try and have a little patience,
I really wanna start over again,
I know you wanna be my salvation,
The one that I can always depend,
I'll try to be strong, believe me,
I'm trying to move on,
It's complicated but understand me,
Cause I, need time,
My heart is numb has no feeling,
So while I'm still healing,
Just try and have a little patience yeah,
Have a little patience, Yeah
Cause this scar runs so deep,
It's been hard,
But I have to believe,
Have a little patience,
Have a little patience,
wooh
Cause I, I just need time,
My heart is numb has no feeling,
So while I'm still healing,
Just try, and have a little patience,
Have a little patience,
My heart is numb has no feeling,
So while I'm still healing
Just try and have a little... Patience
Fluffy pillows in the sky Drifting, dancing, passing by White as snow or grey as lead Clouds above, an endless spread
Changing shape with every breeze Floating free with such great ease Majestic beauty, ever proud Clouds above, a wondrous crowd.

* Glowing Inside * song lyrics by Nikki Gil
www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tODHLp52kU
Happy, to let you know
You make me glow
I feel so good, it's true
So glad that I have you
You love me so
Now all is bright
I'll always thank you for the glow
And thank you for the joy
Thank you for the love you give to me
I'm glowing, glowing inside
With your love shining through
Thank you for everything you do
I'm glowing inside because of you
Remember, my growing years
They're filled with joy
Because you're there for me
You cast my fears away
You wipe those tears
You gave me strength each day
I thank you for the glow
And thank you for the joy
Thank you for the love you give to me
I'm glowing, glowing inside
With your love shining through
Thank you for everything you do
I'm glowing inside because of you
Who knows of what tomorrow brings
My glowing wings can make me fly
I'll reach and now I touch the sky
Because of you I'll sore up high
So I must
Thank you for the glow
And thank you for the joy
Thank you for the love you give to me
I'm glowing, glowing inside
With your love shining through
Thank you for everything you do
I'm glowing inside because of you
