A heat T-storm, in the late afternoon, poured 34mm or l/m2 of rain into this area which the setting sun was unable to dry, therefore keeping the humidity close to saturation.

 

The Babno basin/polje is known for the strong nocturnal thermal inversion due to factors that enhance it such as the calcareous bottom and the open-air meadow area, which favor the rapid loss of heat from the ground towards space and a rapid decrease in temperatures from sunset.

 

The decrease in the evening temperature therefore favored the condensation of an already saturated water vapour.

 

In a short time, the entire basin will be covered by dense fog of low height.

The Parish Church of Steventon is St Nicholas, situated some distance away from the village at the top of a small country lane opposite the site of the old manor House. St Nicholas was originally built around the year 1200 and, apart from some limited 13th, 15th and 19th century alterations, has stayed much the same since it was first built. The church is used regularly for worship and is well known for its associations with Jane Austen, born in Steventon in 1775, being the single most important building left standing in Steventon which relates to her. Her father George Austen, two of her brothers James and Henry, and her nephew William Knight were all Rectors of Steventon. Jane was baptized in St. Nicholas.

 

Some restoration work was carried out in Victorian times including the stained glass windows and much of the roof structure was rebuilt. The pews, pulpit, organ and choir stalls were added and the church was redecorated internally. The spire was also added

Autumn Castle

As the new travel restrictions were around the corner, I took the last opportunity to pop to Germany and visit the world famous Neuschwanstein castle. The palace was commissioned by King Ludwig II of Bavaria in honour of the composer Richard Wagner. It is one of the most visited sites in Germany and normally heaving with internal visitors.

 

"You did the right thing

covered your scars

challenge your faith and close your eyes driving cars

for all that they knew, you were safe home

But you went trough hell whenever you were left alone

And you could see where I had been

from the pictures that they took

I tried to look positive of things

Face myself but didn't look"

 

There are several things to say about my April's reflections. But, I just found something to say better than I can do by myself. I hope you enjoy!

 

Há tanto o que ser dito sobre minhas reflexões de abril. Mas, eu encontrei algo que possa dizer bem melhor do que eu poderia fazer com minhas próprias palavras. Espero que gostem.

 

Tenham um ótimo final de semana!

I wish you all an amazing weekend!

 

Obrigado!!!

Schloss Charlottenburg (Charlottenburg Palace) is a Baroque palace in Berlin, located in Charlottenburg, a district of the Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf borough.

 

The palace was built at the end of the 17th century and was greatly expanded during the 18th century. It includes much lavish internal decoration in Baroque and Rococo styles. A large formal garden surrounded by woodland was added behind the palace, including a belvedere, a mausoleum, a theatre and a pavilion. During the Second World War, the palace was badly damaged but has since been reconstructed. The palace with its gardens is a major tourist attraction.

Although the view is spectacular, taking pictures from this place is not an easy task. Tripods are not allowed to be used in the building additionally, the presence of bright lights around the internal walls add glare to the windows and a fastidious reflection.

 

Thank you for your comments,

Gemma

Having fun making spheres, which I haven't done for quite awhile and forgot how fun it is. Thanks to all for your comments, faves and invites!

I love palm fronds.

 

Unrelated aside.

This weekend is Super Bowl Sunday here in the US.

Go Broncs.

And we're set up for our annual toxic feast of pizza and chicken wings.

My sis in law isn't so interested, but I really enjoy watching it with my brother. He fills me in on all that I don't understand.

So I also love the always illuminating post game interviews with the players as to what they did/didn't do and why they won/lost.

This is the best...... ;-)

Campiglia marittima, that is of the Maremma (in Latin Maritima), a medieval town considered one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, was already inhabited in the Etruscan and Roman times due to the wealth of minerals in the area. The first official document mentioning Campiglia dates back to 1004.

It is today considered one of the most beautiful villages in Italy.

 

Back from another work trip to Salt Lake City. Hope everyone had a great holiday season and have a great weekend.

My Monday flower greeting today not only comes quite late (sorry, I had something urgent to do) but also in a very unusual form. Nothing is blooming here at the moment.

But anyone who has ever seen the flowers of the houseleek knows that they look really impressive and beautiful.

Which brings us to my ulterior motive for this photo.

Very often we meet people whose real potential is not apparent at first glance (perhaps not at second either). Just like this flower in hibernation.

Then we are often quick to judge and put this person in a box that suits us.

I would like to invite you to wait (not just this week) before making such judgments for a while (if you cannot avoid them completely). Be curious about what is still hidden at the moment. I can say from my own experience as a coach that you sometimes make fascinating discoveries when you are there when the sleeping beauty in your counterpart opens her eyes.

And who knows, maybe you will discover and awaken the sleeping beauty within yourself. Because the thing with quick judgments and boxes works even better internally than externally.

 

Mein heutiger montäglicher Blumengruß kommt nicht nur ziemlich spät (sorry, ich hatte etwas Dringendes zu erledigen) sondern auch in recht ungewöhnlicher Form. Hier blüht nämlich gerade garnichts.

Doch wer schon einmal die Blüten vom Hauswurz gesehen hat der weiß, dass diese wirklich beeindruckend und wunderschön aussehen.

Womit wir bei meinem Hintergedanken zu diesem Foto wären.

Sehr oft begegnen uns Menschen deren wirkliches Potential auf den ersten Blick nicht ersichtlich ist (vielleicht auch nicht auf den zweiten). So wie bei dieser Blume im Winterschlaf.

Dann sind wir häufig schnell darin uns ein Urteil zu erlauben und diese Person in eine für uns passende Schublade zu stecken.

Ich möchte Euch dazu einladen (nicht nur diese Woche) mit derartigen Urteilen eine Zeit lang zu warten (wenn Ihr sie nicht ganz vermeiden könnt). Seid neugierig auf das, was im Moment noch im Verborgenen liegt. Ich kann aus eigener Erffahrung als Coach sagen, dass man streckenweise faszinierede Entdeckungen macht, wenn man dabei ist, wenn die schlafende Schönheit in deinem Gegenüber die Augen öffnet.

Und wer weiß, vielleicht endeckt und erweckt Ihr ja die schlafende Schönheit auch in Euch selbst. Denn die Sache mit den schnellen Urteilen und Schubladen funktioniert nach innen noch viel besser als nach außen.
