"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!!!

The Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of Amiens (French: Basilique Cathédrale Notre-Dame d'Amiens), or simply Amiens Cathedral, is a Roman Catholic church. The cathedral is the seat of the Bishop of Amiens (currently Jean-Luc Bouilleret). It is situated on a slight ridge overlooking the River Somme in Amiens, the administrative capital of the Picardy region of France, some 120 kilometres (75 miles) north of Paris. It is the 19th largest church in the world.[citation needed]
Medieval cathedral builders were trying to maximize the internal dimensions in order to reach for the heavens and bring in more light. In that regard, the Amiens cathedral is the tallest complete cathedral in France, its stone-vaulted nave reaching an internal height of 42.30 metres (138.8 ft) (surpassed only by the incomplete Beauvais Cathedral). It also has the greatest interior volume of any French cathedral, estimated at 200,000 cubic metres (260,000 cu yd). The cathedral was built between 1220 and c.1270 and has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1981.[5] Although it has lost most of its original stained glass, Amiens Cathedral is renowned for the quality and quantity of early 13th-century Gothic sculpture in the main west façade and the south transept portal, and a large quantity of polychrome sculpture from later periods inside the building.

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...... ;-)

Happy Weekend to all.
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.
World's first steam powered clock
The insides of this clock is where the magic begins....
Built in 1977. Raymond Saunders' first steam clock was built in 1977 to solve the issue of a steam vent in a popular sidewalk for the renovated Gastown district of Vancouver. Owned by the City of Vancouver, BC Canada
The steam clock's plaque reads:
THE GASTOWN STEAM CLOCK
Designed and built by
Raymond L. Saunders
Horologist
The world's first steam powered clock has been created for the enjoyment of everyone. The live steam winds the weights and blows the whistles. Every 4.5 minutes one steel weight will travel by steam power to the top of the clock. The gravity driven "falling ball" drive was 'engineered' by Douglas L. Smith. Each quarter hour the clock will sound the Westminster Chimes. The large whistle will sound once on the hour. The steam is supplied by the underground system of Central Heat Distributor's Limited. The component parts cost $42,000 and the clock weighs over two tons.
A few years ago the clock was refit and is not entirely steam powered. It also has three small electric motors to help operate two internal fans, one of which blows the steam out the top, and another that controls the valves that play the tunes on the five steam whistles mounted atop the clock case.
The large central whistle, which was taken off the CPR steam tug Naramata, counts off the full hours while the four auxiliary whistles chime the Westminster Quarters every quarter hour. The number of chimes matches the number of quarter hours that have passed.
Gastown is the original settlement that became the core of the creation of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Currently, it is a national historic site and a neighbourhood in the northwest end of Downtown Eastside, adjacent to Downtown Vancouver.

God, hear me!
They told me you didn't exist, and I trusted them like a jerk.
But last night, in the garnet hole, I saw your heaven.
Suddenly, I realized they were lying to me.
If I tried to take a good look
on the things you created,
I'd understand right away that those
they denied that the cat is cat.
It's strange that I had to
get to this hell,
so I can have time to see your face
I like you so much...
That's what I wanted you to know.
There's going to be a terrible battle coming up.
Who knows?
Maybe I'll come to your place tonight.
We weren't good friends,
And I'm asking, my God,
will you be waiting for me at the door?
Look, this is how I cry!
I'm the one who's here going to start whining!
If only I'd known you sooner...
let's go! We have to go now!
It's ridiculous:
When I met you,
I'm not afraid to die anymore.
goodbye!

Some fiddling about in lightroom to bring the reflection up to be brighter than the subject. Use a graduated filter increasing exposure to do this and finish off with a brightening/positive vignette

Off for the weekend, but the sunny days of spring will be hidden behind clouds and rain. This isn't a bad thing. The weekend is mostly for photographing cemeteries on X-ray film. Some lovely dark clouds will help with the sky.
I'm going for (and counting upon) the dark and brooding. Hopefully.
They're calling for rain, but it likely won't be enough to stop me from shooting. Same with the wind. It won't be a gale, but beautiful still lifes of wildflowers are probably out of the question.
I hope to return with some pictures for you to see and many you never will.
