This is the view from the Kala Alm near Kufstein in Austria at sunrise. Fog in the valley and the sun coming up from behind. A few minutes later there was no sunlight at all and everything was grey. Give luck a chance and get up early.
One of three ancient fortresses built around the 4th century AD, as seen from another on higher ground. A reminder of the pre-Islamic Kushan empire which ruled this region.
Except temples there are also other things to see at the Durbar Square, like the oversized relief of the Kala Bhairab or black Bhairab, just behind the Jagganath Temple. Bhairab is Shiva in his most fearful form with six weapened arms, with an headdress and belt of skulls, trampling a corpse, symbolic of mankind's ignorance.
Bhairab can appear in 64 different , all terrifying ways. The image at the Durbar Square is cut from a single stone and brought here in the 18th century after it was found in a field north of the city.
It's believed, that who lies in front of the Bhairab, will bleed to death instantly. So, the saying ''go and tell the Kal Bhairab''
Yalnızlık
yalnızlık yaprakların arasından süzülür
ve, uzaklardan getirir ışıkları da yanında
baÅŸka zamanlardan misafir
bir gri sarar renkleri
buram buram bir hüzün kokusudur o
her nereye baksan
sessizliğinde kaybolan sesler yine çınlar kulağında
boş bir bank da terk edilmiş bütün anılar orada
öylece savrulur durur yorgun bir rüzgarda
yalnızlığın , inceden bir yaz yağmuru gibi
usulca süzülür yüreğinden gözlerine
yine, iki damla yaş kalır geride
hüzünlerden bir sonbaharda
boş bir bank da terk edilmiş anılarda …

I've just returned from a fabulous trip to Barra in the Western Isles of Scotland. The weather threw everything at us but at least that meant lots of drama in the skies.

This small scorpion is moving among the thorns of durian fruit, lucky i spotted it before grabbing the durian.
