Nature gives us an amazing amount of wonders and within her bounty we find similarities upon which we decide to have reflections and those can lead us on to further investigation with wondrous revelations. The figure created by the silhouette of The Pentland Hills is an amazing sight and she can transform her image from different positions even appearing as if she is pregnant from one vantage. Here Mono and Colour are used to give a further insight into the Sleep Skyline Figure that may have been seen as a Goddess, as Geology in transition and also held so many regards that have been given and lost even as she is found in the landscape today and will with weathering and other developments over many, many years be seen as something vastly different than she appears today.
The Pentland Hills are magnificent and here is a share of their beauty.
I have been mentioning the weather lore of, “Red sky at night, shepherd’s delight,” and now the mention is still reaching into the links below.

Matthew 16:2-3, King James Version
2 He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.
3 And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowering. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?
Gospel of Matthew 16:2-3, King James Version.
One of the things I love is music. Depending on what song, I enjoy the complex arrangements, the harmonies, the melody, the poetic lyrics.. Back when I fist started to listen to Nightwish I noticed that, despite the CD's of them were store in the Metal section of the store, they do more than just scream and riff. And I fell in love with the theatrical lyrics. This is the first song of them I had as a favorite. The first of many to come. Dramatic poetic.. and the combination of Tarja's angelike voice with Marco's rough one sent chills down my spine
I wish I had an angel - Nightwish
I wish I had an angel
For one moment of love
I wish I had your angel tonight
Deep into a dying day
I took a step outside an innocent heart
Prepare to hate me fall when I may
This night will hurt you like never before
Old loves they die hard
Old lies they die harder
I wish I had an angel
For one moment of love
I wish I had your angel
Your Virgin Mary undone
I'm in love with my lust
Burning angel wings to dust
I wish I had your angel tonight
I'm going down so frail 'n cruel
Drunken disguise changes all the rules
Old loves they die hard
Old lies they die harder
I wish I had an angel
For one moment of love
I wish I had your angel
Your Virgin Mary undone
I'm in love with my lust
Burning angel wings to dust
I wish I had your angel tonight
Greatest thrill
Not to kill
But to have the prize of the night
Hypocrite
Wannabe friend
13th disciple who betrayed me for nothing!
Last dance, first kiss
Your touch my bliss
Beauty always comes with dark thoughts
I wish I had an angel
For one moment of love
I wish I had your angel
Your Virgin Mary undone
I'm in love with my lust
Burning angel wings to dust
I wish I had your angel tonight
Explored
I'm glad we can be silly together
This was the only shot like this, I've been looking through all the stuff from 2 weeks ago that hasn't been uploaded and the outtakes are hilarious. Once the 2-second timer is on, we really don't know what the others doing.
Oh, in other news. I booked my flight to see her in May.

Life in abroad, being alone, makes you wanna quit your job and go home,
dealing with homesickness, stressful work, bad people surrounds me,

Last night I dreamt Jesus and I walked along a beach.
"Jesus," I said, "you're black? I thought that was a Hollywood cliche. I figured you didn't have a race--you were just the essence of forgiveness or love or something."
"Nope, I'm black. My son, I'm concerned about the path of your life. You used to help the less fortunate. You used to devote yourself to causes. Now you just pursue money. What happened?"
"Jesus, I'm not sure I ever cared about those causes or if I just wanted to aggrandize myself. I mean, I care but it's secondary to making my own life better. And it's a distant second."
Jesus nodded understandingly.
"Everyone wants to improve their lot, Jesus. But materialists are at least honest about it. Given that you've built us with this self-preservation that trumps other concerns, maybe the most we can hope for is to not be a hypocrite. And to make enough money to enjoy the world you've built for us. It does take money, Jesus, no matter what anyone says."
Holding his hands behind his back as we walked, Jesus was the model of the thoughtful listener. "Mmm-hmm. There was an element of egotism to your works. But in sum you may, eventually, have been able to make some difference, even if small."
"The ends justify the means, Jesus? Is that the creator's philosophy?"
"Oh no. Look around," he said, gesturing to the sky and the water and the sand. "My father was a dadaist. And maybe," he concluded, probing a wound in his wrist absent-mindedly, "a bit of a sadist."

FOR LICENSING ENQUIRIES.
Dissociative identity disorder (DID) is a psychiatric diagnosis that describes a condition in which a single person displays multiple distinct identities or personalities (known as alter egos or alters), each with its own pattern of perceiving and interacting with the environment. The diagnosis requires that at least two personalities routinely take control of the individual's behavior with an associated memory loss that goes beyond normal forgetfulness; in addition, symptoms cannot be the temporary effects of drug use or a general medical condition. The condition first appeared in current medical classification in the 1980 publication of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-III) classification, as multiple personality disorder (MPD), which is the term still used by the ICD-10.
There is a great deal of controversy surrounding the topic. There are many commonly disputed points about DID. These viewpoints critical of DID can be quite varied, with some taking the position that DID does not actually exist as a valid medical diagnosis, and others who think that DID may exist but is either always or usually an adverse side effect of therapy. DID diagnoses initially appeared to be almost entirely confined to the North American continent, but later surveys found cases on other continents but at significantly lower rates.
But the interesting part is that all of us tend to do things different one moment or the other, without even noticing it.
a human mind tends to change from time to time, as an improvement and human development.
It will be funny if we would wake up one day and have only one expression on our face that would show sadness or only happiness, friendly or un-friendly, hypocrite or honest.
A human adjust itself to a certain situation or events.
well that's my deduction...
interesting isn't it?...

Weather lore offers us an insight into our days. We are sheltered from the climate and some changes. We are still needing to live within nature and to make a balanced harmony of our lives as best as we can.

She hates, she lies, she's underhand, she's a sociopath, she's a proven bully, she's a hypocrite, she has broken the ministerial code, she blames the poor for being poor, she's racist, she says "footballers taking the knee are playing gesture politics", she is evil. She hates the poor, she hates migrants.
And she smirks about it all when challenged.

"Momentaneamente assente" – By Paola Marchi
THANATOS Exhibition, Bar Ecuador (Massa).
The artist does not show herself as a unity, but fragments herself. The viewer is faced with a split and multiplied face, trapped behind letters and dark backgrounds. This decomposition evokes the duplication typical of psychic defense mechanisms: one part of the self remains visible, the other withdraws into the void.
In this withdrawal, the conceptual and philosophical act is fulfilled: the word contradicts the image and the image contradicts the word. Declaring oneself "absent" attests to a vigilant presence watching those who are looking. Language becomes a physical cage, a subtraction in which the artist decides where to disappear and where to show herself, transforming the void into a space of resistance.
Possible reactions of the viewer
Faced with this dynamic, the artwork does not impose a single emotional response, but triggers different psychological dynamics and reactions depending on the viewer's sensitivity:
* The uncanny effect or protective detachment: For a portion of the audience, those wide-open eyes emerging from the dark background and piercing the canvas can trigger a feeling of vulnerability, shifting the observer from the role of the subject who looks to that of the object being examined. Conversely, in other visitors, it can trigger a reaction of intellectual detachment or protective calm, perceiving the writing as a legitimate shield behind which the artist defends her inaccessibility and right to silence.
* Mirroring or repulsion: The fragmentation of the self-portrait behind the golden letters can generate a sense of familiar recognition of one's own dark areas and repressed internal conflicts. On the other hand, the work can provoke a movement of rejection and repulsion when faced with the exposing of those unconscious mechanisms of duplication that each of us implements in daily life.
* Anxiety of loss or fascination with subtraction: The violent contrast between the rigorous black and white of the faces and the textured orange of the wall behind them amplifies the visceral tension of the display. This aesthetic dissonance can make the viewer fluctuate between the anxiety of the dissolution of the Self and the fascination with voluntary subtraction, demonstrating how disappearance is not nothingness, but a necessary psychic transition.
The social reaction: rejecting the system
Then there is a visceral and collective reaction that sparks when reading that "MOMENTANEAMENTE ASSENTE" right in the face of this rotten society. In a broken system that imposes hyper-presence, total availability, and the constant commodification of the image and the soul, declaring oneself absent becomes an act of open rebellion. Those who look at the artwork can feel a profound sense of liberation or a surge of shared anger: Paola Marchi's absence turns into a refusal to play along with a cynical society that swallows the individual whole. Withdrawing, hiding the face, and reclaiming one's own void is not a cowardly escape, but a frontal assault: it is the only remaining way to avoid being consumed, to say no, and to defend one's truth from the background noise of a hypocritical world.
Off day no blues feel today~ HMB!!!

Matthew 7
The Passion Translation
Do Not Judge
7 “Refuse to be a critic full of bias toward others, and you will not be judged.[a] 2 For you’ll be judged by the same standard that you’ve used to judge others. The measurement you use on them will be used on you.[b] 3 Why would you focus on the flaw in someone else’s life and fail to notice the glaring flaws of your own?[c] 4 How could you say to your friend, ‘Let me show you where you’re wrong,’ when you’re guilty of even more? 5 You’re being hypercritical and a hypocrite! First acknowledge and deal with your own ‘blind spots,’ and then you’ll be capable of dealing with the ‘blind spot’ of your friend.[d]
Published in Y Sin Embargo #19, super#Fissue: the conventional and the empty/emptied gesture. The effects of a centrifugal and hypocritical, forgetful and self-referential society, in permanent escape, where nobody raises a matter or questions anything anymore.
Many thanks to fernandoprats and YSE team.
Ragged, contradictory, lacking honesty, full of holes. This is my opinion of the Federal Government and it's attempt to develop a Climate, Emissions and Technology policy. The very worst of Green Wash which will leave us in the hands of the denying National Party MP's and coal carrying Liberals. These are the people that have had 8 years to develop something credible after dismantling Labour's comprehensive, market-based suite of programs. After all they debased ARENA ( Australian Renewable Energy Authority} this year to accept fossil fuel projects! They have no credibility like the Murdoch Press' breath-taking hypocritical "Green and Gold "headlines recently.
I am waiting for the rest of the world to move on and punish us for our stupidity. Apologies for the rant but...

The face is the mirror of the mind, and EYES without speaking confess the secrets of the heart. S. Jerome
Where words are restrained, the EYES often talk a great deal.
S. Richardson
Psalm 19:8 "The precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart; The commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the EYES."
Matthew 6:22 "The EYE is the lamp of the body; so then if your eye is clear, your whole body will be full of light."
Matthew 7:3-5 "Why do you look at the speck that is in your brother's EYE, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? "Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' and behold, the log is in your own eye? "You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye."
Matthew 13:15 "FOR THE HEART OF THIS PEOPLE HAS BECOME DULL, WITH THEIR EARS THEY SCARCELY HEAR, AND THEY HAVE CLOSED THEIR EYES, OTHERWISE THEY WOULD SEE WITH THEIR EYES, HEAR WITH THEIR EARS, AND UNDERSTAND WITH THEIR HEART AND RETURN, AND I WOULD HEAL THEM."
1 Corinthians 2:9 "but just as it is written, "THINGS WHICH EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND EAR HAS NOT HEARD, AND which HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN, ALL THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM."
Ephesians 1:18 "I pray that the EYES of your heart may be enlightened, so that you will know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints"
1 John 2:16 "For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the EYES and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world."
Matthew 6:22-23 "The EYE is the lamp of the body; so then if your eye is clear, your whole body will be full of light. "But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light that is in you is darkness, how great is the darkness!"

First of all; yes, I have gone back to being Pro. But truth to be told, it's not because I wanted it so badly, but simply because trying to narrow your photo quantity down from 5000+ to less than 1000 happened to be just too much.
Got down to 1500-something, and then I got stuck. Both with the deleting, as with finding an alternative that could have prevented me from going Pro and supporting Flickr's dumbass, hypocrite latest move that has as little to do with being there for its community than Big Pharma is there for the well-being of its customers.
Has deleting all of those photos been in vain then? Neah, most of these photos were of such a quality that it's actually for the better they have been taken offline. Having deleted all of those photos has also given me plenty of inspiration of ideas and locations that really need a redo, years after most of them have been taken.
So to look at things from the bright side, I suppose at least I won't be bored anytime soon. :) Both with continuing to make my own photos (in between admiring your photos), and finding an alternative so I only have to waste 50 bucks just once (probably in the likes of creating a free second account where I will hover over the oldest 1000 photos on this account).
Until then, I guess I better enjoy the amazing perks that come along with a Pro membership, such as a lack of advertisements, and statistics to check out. I'm anticipated with excitement already!
And now to end this rant for once and for all, and to get back to business...
03/01/2019; We had some sunny weather for a change last Thursday. Having been off from work last week, that gave me the perfect opportunity to make the most of the situation. :)

~Falling too fast to prepare for this,
Tripping in the world could be dangerous,
Everybody circling, it's vulturous,
Negative, nepotist.
Everybody waiting for the fall of man,
Everybody praying for the end of times,
Everybody hoping they could be the one,
I was born to run, I was born for this.
Whip, whip,
Run me like a racehorse,
Pull me like a ripcord,
Break me down and build me up,
I wanna be the slip, slip,
Word upon your lip, lip,
Letter that you rip, rip,
Break me down and build me up.
Whatever it takes,
'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins,
I do whatever it takes,
'Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains,
Whatever it takes,
Yeah take me to the top I'm ready for
Whatever it takes,
'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins,
I do what it takes.
Always had a fear of being typical,
Looking at my body feeling miserable,
Always hanging on to the visual,
I wanna be invisible,
Looking at my years like a martyrdom,
Everybody needs to be a part of 'em,
Never be enough, I'm the prodigal son,
I was born to run, I was born for this.
Whip, whip,
Run me like a racehorse,
Pull me like a ripcord,
Break me down and build me up,
I wanna be the slip, slip,
Word upon your lip, lip,
Letter that you rip, rip,
Break me down and build me up.
Whatever it takes,
'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins,
I do whatever it takes,
'Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains,
Whatever it takes,
Yeah take me to the top, I'm ready for
Whatever it takes,
'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins.
I do what it takes,
Hypocritical, egotistical,
Don't wanna be the parenthetical, hypothetical,
Working onto something that I'm proud of, out of the box,
An epoxy to the world and the vision we've lost,
I'm an apostrophe,
I'm just a symbol to remind you that there's more to see,
I'm just a product of the system, a catastrophe,
And yet a masterpiece, and yet I'm half-diseased,
And when I am deceased,
At least I go down to the grave and die happily,
Leave the body of my soul to be a part of me.
I do what it takes,
Whatever it takes,
'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins,
I do whatever it takes,
'Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains,
Whatever it takes,
Yeah take me to the top, I'm ready for
Whatever it takes,
'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins,
I do what it takes~

Imagine Dragons - Whatever It Takes
As some of my contacts may remember, I have some discomfort about zoos and the notion of confined animals for public display. I feel a little bit hypocritical now to have also visited the local aquarium, which is really the same sort of thing. For some reason it has never bothered me as much as zoos, but the issue at the heart of it is really the same thing, I am realizing. What can I say… the jellyfish were a gorgeous thing to witness. But I am pretty sure they would prefer not being confined to their small tank, as well as living in their own natural environment as well. Sigh. I don't know why I don't really feel for these creatures as powerfully as I do for the mammals of the zoo. Being in the aquarium felt otherworldly, and magical, and I feel kind of bad for liking it so much.

Two-Faced: Hypocritical or Double Dealing. See All Politicans.
"Clad in white and gold, the legionaries and servants of the revered noble house Saintigné may appear like shining saviors at first, but their true motives are heinous and hypocritical. The Pure Ones, a lineage of old royals, are striving for eternal life, and in order to achieve their holy goal, they bathe in the blood of the innocent."

Have you ever wondered what a church full of Pharisees would be like?
(Adrian Rogers)
Have you ever wondered what a church full of Pharisees would be like?
1. They would all attend every service.
2. They would all tithe.
3. They would all work in the church.
4. They would all go to Hell!
"Woe to you, Scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites!" Matthew 23:15
Here YOU means those people who takes photography and comments as personal interest of relations.
Here in flickr I have seen people liking and commenting "This is Too good/ Timeless" or "Amar aita khub balo lagtese" in a particular type of shot at the same time commenting the other way to a similar type of shot even same one.
I do ignore and hate those HYPOCRITES who are never true lover of photography rather .....
I know this might hurt a lot of people and I may be kicked off by some bunch of people for saying this.
And I do know I am never a good photographer like YOU are but someone has to speak out.
All the jokes and smiles aside, one thing that I'm grateful to America for is my grandfather! His colon cancer diagnosis would be the end in Ukraine. MSK did an amazing job! I'm thankful for that! Like my cousin says, “all Tanya needs is a bed.” All I need is some bread, water, and a bed! But to save the life of a loved one, that's a big deal for me! I'm not a hypocrite, and I will not say I don't like luxury… but I can honestly live without it if I have to. It’s a bonus. Without the people I love, I can’t. They are my world, and my world revolves around them.
A different lens and a different location that still shows Skyline Silhouette Sleeping Figure. The figure reclines making a striking image, if it is not a figure rather fortuitous geology then still it is still there. The sun having set lights one cloud. If you see a cloud structure at the centre that look like a Goose that has just eaten the Sun then the glowing cloud can be imagined as the after Sun snort from the star devouring Goose.
Nature gives us an amazing amount of wonders and within her bounty we find similarities upon which we decide to have reflections and those can lead us on to further investigation with wondrous revelations. The figure created by the silhouette of The Pentland Hills is an amazing sight and she can transform her image from different positions even appearing as if she is pregnant from one vantage. Here the Sleep Skyline Figure that may have been seen as a Goddess, as Geology in steady transition and also held in so many regards that have been given and lost even as she is found in the landscape, is shown with her central navel locked features given at a greater scale. The uncorrected 16mm view from Minolta give a new perspective on this figure that I have been sharing for many years and also in several, maybe too many pictures recently.
The Pentland Hills are magnificent and here is a share of their beauty.
I have been mentioning the weather lore of, “Red sky at night, shepherd’s delight,” and now the mention is still reaching into the links below.

Anthony de Mello tells of a Sufi Bayazid who said this about himself:
“When I was young I was a revolutionary. My prayer to God was: ‘Lord, give me the energy to change the world.’ As I approached middle-age and realized that my life was half-gone without my changing a single soul, I changed my prayer to: ‘Lord, give me the grace to change all those who come into contact with me. Just my family and friends and I shall be satisfied.’ Now that I am old and my days are numbered, I have begun to see how foolish I have been. My one prayer now is: ‘Lord, give me the grace to change myself.’ If I had prayed for this from the start, I would not have wasted my life.”
Our Gospel reading, gives us an example of how a community of Pharisees are collectively watching Jesus and his followers very carefully. Why are they paying so much attention to what the disciples are doing? Because they are anxiously waiting for them to a break a law or commandment. Of courses the Pharisees are not disappointed. They observe some of the disciples not washing their hands before they eat, and so find them guilty of not practicing the traditions and customs of the community. The Pharisees are now ready to confront Jesus with their bold observations.
Jesus’ delivers a shocking answer to their petty attempts to trick him:
“This people honors me with their lips,
but their hearts are far from me;
in vain do they worship me,
teaching as doctrines human precepts.”
He summoned the crowd again and said to them:
“Hear me, all of you, and understand.
Nothing that enters one from outside can defile that person;
but the things that come out from within are what defile.
“From within people, from their hearts,
come evil thoughts, unchastity, theft, murder,
adultery, greed, malice, deceit,
licentiousness, envy, blasphemy, arrogance, folly.
All these evils come from within and they defile.”
We may smile at Jesus’ response-his words should cause us to PAUSE! Jesus is telling us that “sin” actually begins within our own hearts. I suspect it is in our nature, and because it is much easier, to focus on someone else’s outward actions, then the source of our own. In my own life, I have tried to compare myself to only one person and that person is Jesus. May I be so bold as to claim that no one measures up to this ideal. We all know this! When we act contrary to our conscience, we can be certain that sin is birthed and that consequences will follow. But, this awareness of where sin begins in our individual lives does not stop here. Knowing that the source of our potential sin resides in our hearts, our personal relationship with Jesus is the fountain of grace that gives us strength and courage to move past these negative thoughts and inclinations.
The Church is our school master, where we as a community are formed into the body of Christ. It should also be a reflection of the Kingdom of God on the earth. Others are watching us very closely and we hear quite often how well we are failing.
Let us not be distracted, by those who so easily point fingers and call us hypocrites. Let us not do what they are doing by judging their actions. We know what sin looks like and so do they. Our main concern, should be “how is my relationship with Jesus?” When we answer that question honestly, we then can compare our answer to the greatest of commandments; which is to love God with all our heart, might, mind and strength.
This is the toughest commandment, and one that is most often overlooked. However, it is my belief, that it is one we should reflect on continuously. When we strive to keep this beautiful commandment, we take notice, that the heart is not only the source of our temptation, but more importantly the wondrous source of flowing grace that swallows up these pesky thoughts. Yes, when we experience this kind of grace-we understand that the Holy Spirit constantly abides with us and our relationship with Jesus becomes the most important reality. Our prayer then becomes “Lord give me the grace to change” to become more like you.
Now, let us proceed to the place, where we are visibly fed. Christ awaits for us in the Eucharist.
May our hearts be ready to receive HIM.
I would say that anyone who’s bashing social media is a hypocrite... If used wisely & not abuse it the amount of information and how much it can make our daily life easier is just astounding ♥️ I find out about so many interesting things & places on Instagram, Flickr and etc. and this bookstore is not an exception ♥️♥️

Thank you for the all the Faves, Comments and Cool Awards! ♥
I always find it interesting how fast people are ready to eat each other up like vultures when another person fails (or just in general). If we practiced kindness & love just as often we would live almost in a perfect world. I will not be a hypocrite and will admit I can have my moments. But I’m just hormonal not spiteful.

Toy Project Day 2224
On August 15, The Greek Orthodox church celebrates the Assumption. But that is just the religious “excuse” for villages to be decorated, folklore festivals to be held, shows of traditional dances to be staged, and a festive atmosphere to be impatiently expected by Greeks and foreigners alike.
Famous celebrations
The top pilgrimage destination is Tinos, the Cycladic island with the church of Virgin Mary that has become its landmark: no wonder the day of the Assumption is the most important of the year there. Thousands of pilgrims have made a solemn promise to genuflect before the holly icon. Some of them go up the hill where the church is situated on their knees! The feeling of awe and commotion spreads around the town when the icon is carried about is procession. One of the most imposing churches on the Aegean islands is the paleo-christian Virgin Mary of Ekatontapiliani in the capital of Paros, Paroikia. The icon’s procession is followed by people dancing to the local folklore rhythms while sipping at wine from the island. Just a few kilometers away and a few hours later, the night becomes a day when dozens of caiques approach the port of Naoussa with burning torches.
The Greeks that once used to live in the area of Pontus, a region on the southern coast of the Black Sea, have brought to Greece all their customs and traditions. Their religious emblem, the Holy Monastery of Virgin Mary Soumela, sees thousands of people swarming all over on the Assumption day, not only for fulfilling their religious duties, but also for enjoying the time-honoured morals and customs of Pontus music, dance and gastronomy.If you are on Patmos, follow the trimmed with gold epitaph that the monks carry around the cobbled streets of the island. In Zagorohoria, the festivities last for as long as three whole days at the end of which one can hardly move a hip after so much dancing. On Thassos, the devout Christians attend the Mass but look forward to the following meal, consisting of potatoes, rice and veal stew with onions. On Lesvos, it is a custom for the believers to walk 25km from the town of Mytilini to the church of Virgin Mary in Agiassos, and spend the night in its yard. In Kefalonia, a unique phenomenon that recurs year after year on the day of the Assumption attracts the visitors: small harmless snakes show up on the dome of the church of the village Markopoulo, as if they intended not to miss the religious celebration. The local legend provides an explanation for this: in the years when pirates were thriving, some nuns of the area begged Virgin Mary to transform them into snakes, so that they wouldn’t be subjugated to the sea invaders. Virgin Mary showed mercy to the scared women, and now it seems that they just come back every year to eternity, in order to thank the Holly Mother.
"Whatever It Takes"

Falling too fast to prepare for this
Tripping in the world could be dangerous
Everybody circling is vulturous
Negative, nepotist
Everybody waiting for the fall of man
Everybody praying for the end of times
Everybody hoping they could be the one
I was born to run, I was born for this
Whip, whip
Run me like a racehorse
Pull me like a ripcord
Break me down and build me up
I wanna be the slip, slip
Word upon your lip, lip
Letter that you rip, rip
Break me down and build me up
Whatever it takes
Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
I do whatever it takes
Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains
Whatever it takes
Yeah take me to the top I'm ready for
Whatever it takes
Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
I do what it takes
Always had a fear of being typical
Looking at my body feeling miserable
Always hanging on to the visual
I wanna be invisible
Looking at my years like a martyrdom
Everybody needs to be a part of them
Never be enough, I'm the prodigal son
I was born to run, I was born for this
Whip, whip
Run me like a racehorse
Pull me like a ripcord
Break me down and build me up
I wanna be the slip, slip
Word upon your lip, lip
Letter that you rip, rip
Break me down and build me up
Whatever it takes
Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
I do whatever it takes
Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains
Whatever it takes
Yeah take me to the top, I'm ready for
Whatever it takes
Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
I do what it takes
Hypocritical, egotistical
Don't wanna be the parenthetical, hypothetical
Working hard on something that I'm proud of, out of the box
An epoxy to the world and the vision we've lost
I'm an apostrophe
I'm just a symbol to remind you that there's more to see
I'm just a product of the system of catastrophe
And yet a masterpiece, and yet I'm half-diseased
And when I am deceased
At least I'll go down to the grave and die happily
And leave the body and my soul to be a part of thee
I do what it takes
Whatever it takes
Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
I do whatever it takes
Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains
Whatever it takes
Yeah take me to the top, I'm ready for
Whatever it takes
Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
I do what it takes

In some respects, I find it rather distasteful that the pain and suffering of the victims of the Titanic sinking has been so heavily commercialised. But, I guess, that makes me a hypocrite since I took this photo.

A different lens and a different location that still shows Skyline Silhouette Sleeping Figure. The figure reclines making a striking image, if it is not a figure rather fortuitous geology then still it is still there. The sun having set lights one cloud. If you see a cloud structure at the centre that look like a Goose that has just eaten the Sun then the glowing cloud can be imagined as the after Sun snort from the star devouring Goose.
Nature gives us an amazing amount of wonders and within her bounty we find similarities upon which we decide to have reflections and those can lead us on to further investigation with wondrous revelations. The figure created by the silhouette of The Pentland Hills is an amazing sight and she can transform her image from different positions even appearing as if she is pregnant from one vantage. Here the Sleep Skyline Figure that may have been seen as a Goddess, as Geology in steady transition and also held in so many regards that have been given and lost even as she is found in the landscape, is shown with her central navel locked features given at a greater scale. The uncorrected 16mm view from Minolta give a new perspective on this figure that I have been sharing for many years and also in several, maybe too many pictures recently.
The Pentland Hills are magnificent and here is a share of their beauty.
I have been mentioning the weather lore of, “Red sky at night, shepherd’s delight,” and now the mention is still reaching into the links below.

Matthew 16:2-3, King James Version
2 He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.
3 And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowering. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?
Gospel of Matthew 16:2-3, King James Version.
www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+16%3A2-3&...
Canada is the second largest country (landmass) in the world! Travel distance from coast to coast is over 6,500 kilometers. Earlier this week, truckers from the west started a “freedom convoy”, driving across Canada in protest of government-imposed vaccine passports and mandates.
Prime Minister Trudeau smugly referred to this movement as a “small minority fringe group with unacceptable views.” May I remind you Mr. Prime Minister Trudeau that you were elected to a position of power by the people. You are not God, not king, not emperor, just a duly elected public figure. May I also remind you that your MINORITY government was elected (to use your own words) by a “small minority fringe group”, having received only 33.1% of the public vote. You can and will be replaced.
Oddly the media, as well as government has downplayed this movement, suggesting the number of truckers involved is only “about 10,000.” What you have failed to report, what the media has failed to report is the millions of people who have braved viciously cold temperatures to show their support. The highways for thousands of kilometers are lined with cars, trucks, people, all cheering on this brave group. Every overpass is jammed with flag waving Canadians showing their support. If you are that blind to what the public is telling you, you are a danger to that office and should remove yourself immediately.
I had not planned to post again, but yesterday at 2.00 pm when I watched a CTV News reporter giving a “fake news” report in front of Parliament, I was disgusted. The report showed a few aimless souls wandering around in the background, leaving one with the impression that the movement was a dud. Well fake news company, the above image taken by my daughter Missy actually gives the truth about what was happening on Parliament Hill.
So Justin, in your lust to remain and hold power, here is a speech that I freely give and suggest you use:
“Dear fellow Canadian’s, I sincerely apologize for the brainless and stupid comments that I have made recently. Please forgive me.”
PS - a word of caution:
The government of Nova Scotia has warned anyone that shows support for the Freedom Convoy by stopping along the higways, they will be issuing up to $10,000,00 fines for individuals and up to $100,000.00 for corporations.
UPDATE:
Knowing that thousands of protesters were showing up in Ottawa, Prime Minister Trudeau went into a 5 day hibernation because he was apparently "exposed to someone who had covid". Today from Tofino, British Columbia, he claims (in spite of the fact that he is vaccinated up the Yazoo) to have contracted the virus.
Please explain to the Canadian public Justin T, how after having "been exposed" and having "contracted the virus" all within the last 5 days (when you were supposedly self isolating in Ottawa), how did you manage to travel over 5,000 kilometers to the far side of Canada? Either you are a liar or an extreme coward.... In either case Mr. Hypocrite, you should be removed from office...
UPDATE:
Apparently our Leader did not hide out in BC but continues to hunker down in his hide-out.
