Sdraiato sotto un telo mimetico in attesa di soggetti sicuramente più interessanti….quando questa Cornacchia grigia è passata vicino a me in cerca di prede nell'erba non ho resistito alla tentazione di "dedicargli" alcuni scatti. Abruzzo - PNGSL
Lying under a camouflage sheet waiting for surely more interesting subjects ... when this Hooded Crow passed near me looking for prey in the grass I could not resist the temptation to "dedicate" some shots to him. Abruzzo - Gran Sasso Laga National Park

Selon Rosa, l'aliénation contemporaine est directement liée à la pression temporelle que nous subissons.
Cette intuition centrale tient en quelques lignes : "Les sociétés modernes sont à mon sens régulées, coordonnées et dominées par un régime temporel rigoureux et strict qui n'est pas articulé en termes éthiques. Les sujets modernes peuvent donc être décrits comme n'étant restreints qu'a minima par des règles et des sanctions éthiques, et par conséquent comme étant "libres", alors qu'ils sont régentés, dominés et réprimés par un régime-temps en grande partie invisible, dépolitisé, indiscuté, sous-théorisé et inarticulé. Ce régime-temps peut en fait être analysé grâce à un concept unificateur : la logique de l'accélération sociale.

I Will Wait - Mumford and Sons
I Will Wait - Mumford and Sons On Black to tuuune!!
Well I came home
Like a stone
And I fell heavy into your arms
These days of dust
Which we've known
Will blow away with this new sun
But I'll kneel down
Wait for now
And I'll kneel down
Know my ground
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
So break my step
And relent
You forgave and I won't forget
Know what we've seen
And him with less
Now in some way
Shake the excess
'Cause I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
Now I'll be bold
As well as strong
And use my head alongside my heart
So take my flesh
And fix my eyes
A tethered mind free from the lies . . .
Rannoch Moor (/ˈrænəx/ (listen), Scottish Gaelic: Mòinteach Raineach/Raithneach) is an expanse of around 50 square miles (130 km2) of boggy moorland to the west of Loch Rannoch in Scotland, where it extends from and into westerly Perth and Kinross, northerly Lochaber (in Highland), and the area of Highland Scotland toward its south-west, northern Argyll and Bute. Rannoch Moor is designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and a Special Area of Conservation.[2] Much of the western part of the moor lies within the Ben Nevis and Glen Coe National Scenic Area,[3] one of 40 such areas in Scotland
Located on the Nete river, Lier was settled in the 8th century and developed around the chapel of St. Peter. Lier became an important textile centre in the 14th century. It was besieged and taken by the Spanish in 1582, by the Dutch in 1595, and by the English in 1706 during the War of the Spanish Succession.
Lier is a French commune that was granted city rites in 1212. It is located in the Flanders region of Northern Belgium. Located on the Nete river, Lier was settled in the 8th century and developed around the chapel of St. Peter. Lier became an important textile centre in the 14th century. It was besieged and taken by the Spanish in 1582, by the Dutch in 1595, and by the English in 1706 during the War of the Spanish Succession. Belgian nationalists resisted a Dutch attack in 1830. Belgium has seen its fair share of war and occupation.
Destruction of Lier occurred as a result of bombing in Antwerp in 1914; however, many of the medieval structures survived including, the Gothic belfry, St. Gommarus’ Church and the béguinage.

The Death Crab Spider does not use a web to catch its prey. Instead it lies in wait on flowers and vegetation to ambush its prey and subdue by a venomous bite.

In the untouched nature of the Livno field in Bosnia and Herzegovina, about 300 wild horses gallop. This beautiful place is only a few kilometers from Livno and lies on a plateau. Cattle horses withstood the harsh weather, devastation and predator for about five decades.

This fellow was laying right beside me. The only thing that seperated us was a couple of inches of plexiglass. What an experience!
A Thousand Years - Sting
A thousand years, a thousand more
A thousand times a million doors to eternity
I may have lived a thousand lives, a thousand times
An endless turning stairway climbs
To a tower of souls
If it takes another thousand years, a thousand wars
The towers rise to numberless floors in space
I could shed another million tears, a million breaths
A million names but only one truth to face
A million roads, a million fears
A million suns, ten million years of uncertainty
I could speak a million lies, a million songs
A million rights, a million wrongs in this balance of time
But if there was a single truth, a single light
A single thought, a singular touch of grace
Then following this single point, this single flame
This single haunted memory of your face
I still love you
I still want you
A thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves
Like galaxies in my head
And on and on the mysteries unwind themselves
Eternities still unsaid
'Til you love me

One morning, there were a handful of leopard frogs who were actively hunting for insects. Behind me was a boardwalk and when anyone walked on it, the frogs totally disappeared and it took some time before they'd resurface. I had hoped to catch one in action, but that day, I was lucky just to capture a frog waiting for its breakfast.
Thank you for your visits and comments, much appreciated. Have a great weekend!
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
by John McCrae, May 1915
Some souls cannot be saved
Some fires cannot be tamed
Some lies reveal the truth
I see the real in you
You were the hand that lit the flame
Now you're trying to erase me
You were the hand that led the way
Now you're trying to break me

A huge thank you to Abigail Brewer for help with the edit of this picture. I could not have made this vision a reality without her.
On the centuries-old Soelen estate lies Soelen Castle. The castle is surrounded by a moat and all around is an extensive (linear) landscape of forest and meadows crisscrossed with hiking trails. Since the early 1990s, Soelen Castle and the surrounding 157-hectare estate have been owned by Staatsbosbeheer. It was recently decided to sell the apartments in the castle, the coach house, the apartment in the gatehouse and the garages owned by Staatsbosbeheer.

Taken on Calshot Beach, Hampshire, England, this pebble beach lies on the Solent, west of Southampton Water's Estuary Mouth. It also falls within the New Forest National Park.
Calshot is famous for Calshot Castle, the destination of the first RAF flying boats that flew in England in the 1930s. It was also in the 1930s that it was used as the base for the RAF High Speed Flight, a unit of the RAF that was set up to support the challenge for the Schnieder Trophy.
A cloudy and damp morning put a stop to any spectacular sunrise but a break in the clouds just off to the east gave the beach huts a wonderful glow while the clouds still shadowed the beach itself.
Taken with a tripod and a relatively slow shutter, very little has been tweaked from the original shot.

Situated on a narrow headland between the sea and Bodden - the peninsula Fischland-Darß-Zingst - lies Ahrenshoop. The artists' village Ahrenshoop now has more than 120 years of tradition. Immediately behind the dunes is the former residential and studio building by Theobald Schorn, built in 1909 in the style of typical fisherman's houses.
