The Lek is a river in the western Netherlands of some 60 km (37 mi) in length. It is the continuation of the Nederrijn after the Kromme Rijn branches off at the town of Wijk bij Duurstede. The main westbound waterway is hereafter called the Lek River. The Nederrijn is, itself, a distributary branch of the river Rhine.
Portions of the river form the boundary between the provinces of Utrecht and Gelderland, and between Utrecht and South Holland.
In Roman times, the Nederrijn flowed into the Kromme Rijn and these streams were the main outflow of the river Rhine. When the Kromme Rijn began to silt up in the Middle Ages, the Lek became the primary branch. A short distance past Wijk bij Duurstede, the river intersects with the Amsterdam-Rhine Canal, which continues south towards the Waal. A branch of this canal, the Lek Canal is connected to the river at the city of Nieuwegein.
Other major towns on its banks are Culemborg, Vianen, Schoonhoven, Nieuw-Lekkerland, Lekkerkerk and Krimpen aan de Lek. The bed of the river lies slightly higher than the surrounding lands and dikes are therefore essential to contain the Lek. At the village of Kinderdijk the Lek meets the Noord River and the combined stream is thereafter known as the Nieuwe Maas as it flows down towards the North Sea.

Ce papillon a un développement larvaire étonnant: au quatrième stade, sa larve doit être adoptée par une espèce particulière de fourmi (myrmica laevinodis) qui l'emmène dans la fourmilière. Gare à elle: elle se fait dévorer par toute autre fourmi! Une fois parvenue dans la fourmilière, devenue elle-même carnivore (étonnant pour une chenille...), elle reste plusieurs mois et dévore les larves des fourmis hôtes sans que ces dernières réagissent!

This butterfly has an amazing larval development: in the fourth stage, its larvae must be adopted by a particular species of ant (myrmica laevinodis) which takes it into the anthill. Beware: it gets eaten by any other ant! Once arrived in the anthill, the larva, which has become itself carnivorous (surprising for a caterpillar...), remains several months and devours the larvae of the host ants without the latter reacting!

O Mistress mine, where are you roaming?
O stay and hear! your true-love’s coming
That can sing both high and low;
Trip no further, pretty sweeting,
Journeys end in lovers’ meeting—
Every wise man’s son doth know.
What is love? ’tis not hereafter;
Present mirth hath present laughter;
What’s to come is still unsure:
In delay there lies no plenty,—
Then come kiss me, Sweet-and-twenty,
Youth’s a stuff will not endure.
Twelfth Night, Act II, Scene III [O Mistress mine,
where are you roaming?] William Shakespeare

The things that might have been, and yet were not,

"Would?"
Know me broken by my master
Teach thee on child of love hereafter
Into the flood again
Same old trip it was back then
So I made a big mistake
Try to see it once my way
Drifting body it's sole desertion
Flying not yet quite the notion
Into the flood again
Same old trip it was back then
So I made a big mistake
Try to see it once my way
Into the flood again
Same old trip it was back then
So I made a big mistake
Try to see it once my way
Am I wrong?
Have I run too far to get home?
Have I gone?
And left you here alone?
If I would, could you?

Blueberries
by James Lasdun
I’m talking to you old man.
Listen to me as you step inside this garden
to fill a breakfast bowl with blueberries
ripened on the bushes I’m planting now,
twenty years back from where you’re standing.
It’s strictly a long-term project—first year
pull off the blossoms before they open,
second year let them flower, watch the bees
bobbing in every bonnet,
but don’t touch the fruit till year three,
and then only sample a handful or two . . .
Old man I’m doing this for you!
You know what they say about blueberries:
blood-cleansing, mood-lifting memory-boosters;
every bush a little fountain of youth
sparkling with flavonoids, anthocyanin . . .
I’ve spent all summer clearing brush
sawing locust poles for the frames,
digging in mounds of pine needles, bales of peat moss—
I thought I’d do it while I still could.
You can do something for me in turn:
think about the things an old man should;
things I’ve shied away from, last things.
Care about them only don’t care too
(you’ll know better than I do what I mean
or what I couldn’t say, but meant).
Reconcile, forgive, repent,
but don’t go soft on me; keep the faith,
our infidels’ implicit vow:
“not the hereafter but the here and now . . . ”
Weigh your heart against the feather of truth
as the Egyptians did, and purge its sin,
but for your own sake, not your soul’s.
And since the only certain
eternity’s the one that stretches backward,
look for it here inside this garden:
Blueray, Bluecrop, Bluetta, Hardy Blue;
little fat droplets of transubstantiate sky,
each in its yeast-misted wineskin, chilled in dew.
This was your labor, these are the fruits thereof.
Fill up your bowl old man and bring them in.
I searched a poem about blueberries and found this one. It touched me in a way and I wanna share it with you... a wonderful day to you all :-)
Even if she be not harmed, her heart may fail her in so much and so many horrors; and hereafter she may suffer--both in waking, from her nerves, and in sleep, from her dreams.

This canopic jar is the baboon (Hapy), Like the Dybbuk box, maybe should not have been opened. Or, maybe, he was a smoker....
From the ancient Egyptian funerary practice comes the canopic jars. Each organ was identified with one of four funerary deities collectively known as the Sons of Horus: the liver with Imsety (man's head), the lungs with Hapy (baboon's head), the stomach with Duamutef (jackal's head), and the intestines with Qebehsenuef (falcon's head). It was their duty to protect the deceased and restore to him his body parts in the hereafter.

Culemborg formerly also spelled Kuilenburg or Kuylenburgh is a municipality and a city in the centre of the Netherlands. The city is situated just south of the Lek River. It received city rights in 1318.
On the right you see mill De Hoop (English: The Hope) or 't Jach is a tower mill in Culemborg, Gelderland, Netherlands which was built in 1845 and has been restored to working order. The mill is listed as a National monument.

I'd like to introduce you all to Anna Skahill. She's probably the kindest and sweetest person I've ever met. I was so fortunate to meet her last November, when I travelled to London. She was honestly the best model I could have asked for. Despite it being SO cold, she put on this dress for me and allowed me to photograph her beautiful self. I can't tell you how beautiful a view it was, particularly when the golden light started peeping in from behind her. I am so, so happy with how the photographs came out and can't wait to share them with you all.
It was one of my favourite days from the trip. Sarah had organised a little get together with some fellow artists at what you can see to be an absolutely incredible location. Sarah met me at my hotel and we caught the tube together to meet the others. We went on a little adventure through beautiful grassy pathways until we finally met up with the rest of the group. I was so happy not only to be meeting other artists for the first time, but to also be meeting up with Flickr friends such as Joel & Anna, who I had not yet met in real life! I had been following both of their work for years and it was just wonderful to be meeting them in person.

Tonight we'll have the longest night of the year. Hereafter the light is going to return - bit by bit, every day.
I'm looking forward to this!
Die künstlerische Ausgestaltung des Innenraums im ornamentalen Stil des Rokoko hat auf den heutigen Betrachter eine mitreißende Wirkung. Die Überwältigung ist ein geplanter Effekt: die Pracht der Kirche soll den Gläubigen von der Größe Gottes überzeugen. Der Himmel und das Jenseits werden buchstäblich auf die Erde geholt, so dass der Gläubige sie nicht nur ahnen kann, sondern plastisch vor sich sieht.
The artistic decoration of the interior in the ornamental rococo style has a stirring effect on today's viewer. The overwhelming effect is a planned one: the splendor of the church is intended to convince the believer of the greatness of God. Heaven and the hereafter are literally brought to earth, so that the believer can not only sense them, but also see them vividly before him.
Terwijl we in Ripain stonden, kreeg Wouter telefoon. Finn van Treinfoto België meldde hem dat de 1312 onderweg was met een kort treintje richting Ottignies.
Op aanraden van Finn reden we dan ook naar Limal, waar we na niet al te lang wachten deze korte Lyon Xpress konden vereeuwigen.
We overlegden even wat we in de namiddag zouden doen, vooraleer we terug achter de ballasttrein aan zouden gaan.
Lijn 90 bleek een goede optie, vooral omdat ook de cementtrein naar Havinnes onderweg was. Voor deze zou een foto op lijn 94 net na het buitenrijden van Ath ook best mogelijk moeten zijn.
Zo gezegd, zo gedaan: vanuit Limal ging het naar Irchonwelz (met een korte stop in Lens voor de 49804 naar Neslé Somme), wat we iets na 14u bereikten.
Volgens dienstregeling zou de cargo net voor de IC naar Doornik uit Ath vertrekken. Hopelijk wel, want we stonden net in een brede opklaring. Wordt vervolgd...
-----
Whilst standing at Ripain, we received a tip that one of the Black Beauties of Lineas was en route to Ottignies.
So we decided to make the displacement to line 139, where my brother and I could take this picture of 1312 and its short freight train, together with our friend Finn from Treinfoto België.
Hereafter we said goodbye to Finn and went to the surroundings of Ath, next point on our schedule was the cement train to Havinnes for which we found a location at the west of Ath. There was plenty of sunshine, but the freight train still wasn't showing up....

Thought that a long exposure and mono would reflect the mood at Gore Bay today. No rain, so that was a bonus as shortly hereafter we set out for our Manuka Bay walk.
I got pretty close to the log to try and draw the eye in to that lovely detail and then on to the sky.
The spider captured a fly in the web and hereafter... the eating moment.
La araña capturó una mosca en la tela de araña y seguidamente... el momento de comer.

"Last night my cover was blown on the children’s news:
Close your eyes long enough not to fall" van Binsbergen will never be actualized.
She will fade until she is a ghost, the narrowest tyre in the world,
unfindable in the catalogue.
Close your eyes long enough not to fall
in the library
it is a forest of cacti, don’t go back there,
take your beloved’s hand elsewhere
the playground is no place for pleasure.
The desire to change into a book shocks the young viewers
their parents reassure them: don’t worry, it will never happen.
Let my vision be free!
My vision is innocent!
The library is too shallow a grave
you’d go crazy from all the voices you heard there
and the shadows behind the shelves
are the result of trying to live normally for 3,000 years
in the hereafter – don’t go back there.
For everyone the book they deserve:
my friends have become encyclopaedias
and the odd boiling manual
they are undead and hungry but ultimately
just something you can pick up
and put down next to your bed, turn off the light
for a night that serves the day
in which everyone lives and belongs to the world.
I will never become real."

The pilgrimage every muslim must make - Hajj - is not only a physical journey, but also an exploration of a person's soul. This humbling experience is enough to affect any of us and change us into better individuals.
Once a year, we finally become one nation, united to thank Allah for everything he blessed us with, and ask for forgiveness and happiness both now and in the hereafter.
For those of you who have already been to Hajj, may Allah accept all your efforts and grant you the chance to go there again. For those of you who haven't, may you be blessed with the opportunity to go there very soon.
Wallah there's nothing like it...
ربنا آتنا في الدنيا حسنة وفي الآخرة حسنة وقنا عذاب النار
اللهم اغفر لنا وارحمنا وتقبل منا... اللهم اهدنا وحببنا في ما يرضيك وأبعدنا عما يسخطك
اللهم اغفر لنا ذنوبنا واجعل قبورنا من رياض الجنة... اللهم اعتق رقابنا من النار وأدخلنا جنة الفردوس الأعلى
اللهم آمين

Mists of damp heat rise up out of the fields around the sleeping abbey. The whole valley is flooded with moonlight and I can count the southern hills beyond the watertank, and almost number the trees of the forest to the north. Now the huge chorus of living beings rises up out of the world beneath my feet: life singing in the watercourses, throbbing in the creeks and the fields and the trees, choirs of millions and millions of jumping and flying and creeping things. And far above me the cool sky opens upon the frozen distance of the stars.

Thoughts of the last moment are sometimes the better ones, I must admit. While packing our stuff to go home, it appeared to us that we could still make it for the TER Service to Sarreguemines. This service was one of the last ones hauled a BB67400 series diesel. We won the race against the clock; in what were really the last rays of sunshine I got my one and only photo of this loco-hauled service. Shortly hereafter the train was replaced by railcars.
